Elizabeth Bell, acting Luna of the Moon Tides pack, is shocked to find herself at the mercy of their near neighbour, Alpha Byron, a TV celebrity who leads the shifters from Wild Horses. And all because her brother, Richard, whose gambling is out of control owes him a huge debt. When he sends some of his men to fetch her to his home on the edge of the desert she doesn't rebel, thinking of her pack members and the promise she made to her late parents to always put them first. Spending time with the rich Alpha is an eye-opener in more ways than one, the mate bond unlooked for and surprising because of the nature of her wolf. Byron swears her to secrecy, informing her she may be in danger. Alphas have been going missing all over the territory, including his sister's husband and, possibly now, her brother. A Lycan appears to be the mastermind behind it and, when Alpha Byron is abducted, Liz must do everything she can to stop the destruction of werewolf society, even if this means pretending she is in love with him. Will their relationship survive her sacrifice? And could this be the end of independence for the packs?

When the kingdom of Ormond is invaded, eighteen year old Princess Eithne is enslaved by the cynical conqueror, Xander of Frankia. Her innocent eyes are opened to a world of untold cruelty and depravity at the heart of which is her estranged mother, Clara Sylvain Lovell. Mourning the death of her beloved father, King Stephen, Eithne is worried about her older brother, Ephron, who has not been heard from for a while. Xander claims acquaintance with the disgraced royal heir and says he is currently in jail overseas. He swears he will try and secure his release in return for her favours. But is he to be trusted? Eithne sees another side of her sometimes brutal master when they learn that young girls are going missing all over the realm. Does this resonate with him on a far more personal level than he is letting on? And is Xander really the blackguard he seems, or will love tame the tamer?

Alpha Kane imprisons Amy in his dungeon to soften her up for questioning after her brother, Jake, abducts his sister, Lisa. But she proves stubborn and he enslaves her, hoping this will make her more compliant. Kane is attracted to the dark-haired she-wolf from a rival pack, recently absorbed by his own, even though he has found his Luna and mate, Selene. But Amy is not what she seems, and the Alpha also has a hidden agenda. Working together to right a centuries old wrong, the pair begin to question everything they have been taught to believe. Will pack hierarchy ever be the same again?

Rose Harper will do anything to protect her younger sister, Willow. When they are sold by their rogue father to Alpha Lewis of the Red Riding pack, the Alpha threatens to send Willow to a brothel unless the twenty-one-year-old consents to spy on his enemy. Lycan Adam is planning to make war on the werewolf clans. Arrogant and powerful, he no longer believes in love and despises the mate bond. But the Moon Goddess is not done with him yet. Will Rose remain loyal to Alpha Lewis or side with her unexpected fated mate if Lycan Adam promises to rescue Willow? Much may depend on the Alpha's Beta, Connor, who believes himself to be in love with Rose and is planning a rebellion of his own.

Miriam Feltspar does not expect to be sold to a mercenary, Ketil Haakonsson, a man who terrifies her. Still less does she expect to develop feelings for him. When Vercia is invaded by a hostile force under the command of the Masked King, her situation worsens. Has Ketil survived? If so, will he leave her to her fate? Contending with war, abduction and a heartless father can only make one stronger.

Suamiku adalah dokter yang baik di mata semua orang. Namun, demi menemani anak dari cinta pertamanya bermain di taman dan mencoba meraih hadiah, dia malah menunda penanganan pasien kritis yang menjadi korban kecelakaan. Kemudian, dia bahkan diam-diam menukar obat pasien dan membiarkan pasien itu mati perlahan-lahan agar bisa mendapatkan donor jantung untuk putra cinta pertamanya. Namun, yang tak dia sadari adalah, gadis kecil yang wajahnya tak lagi bisa dikenali akibat kecelakaan itu ternyata adalah putrinya sendiri. Kemudian, dia mencoba menghubungi keluarga pasien dan berharap bisa mendapatkan izin untuk mendonorkan organ. Namun saat panggilan tersambung, suara dering ponselku memenuhi ruangan.

Setelah Joey kehilangan penglihatannya, aku rela mendonorkan korneaku padanya tanpa ragu-ragu. Dia bersumpah tidak akan pernah mengecewakanku. Namun, pernikahan kami malah terus diundur sejak kekasih lamanya tiba-tiba pulang dari luar negeri. Di hari ulang tahunku, dia telat memberiku hadiah. Aku menerima hadiah itu dengan penuh penantian. Namun, yang kuterima ternyata adalah dua lembar tiket bioskop. Pertanyaanku padanya malah membuatnya kesal. "Siapa bilang orang buta nggak bisa nonton bioskop? Kamu jadi buta karena keinginanmu sendiri, bukan aku yang mencelakaimu. Jangan asyik ungkit masalah ini!" Kekasih lamanya bersikap sok lembut. "Maaf ya, Kak. Film itu nggak cocok dengan seleraku. Kalau kamu juga nggak mau pergi, buang saja tiketnya!" Aku merobek tiket itu, lalu meninggalkan rumah. Namun, aku malah mendengar bahwa Joey jadi kehilangan akal setelah tidak bisa menemukan pengantin di acara pernikahannya.

Ini adalah malam tahun baru ketiga sejak suamiku bangkrut. Rumah kami begitu miskin sampai tidak tersisa beras sedikit pun. Dia bilang, dia ingin makan daging. Dengan suhu minus 20 derajat dan badai salju lebat, aku menahan dingin sambil mengendarai motor listrik tua untuk mengambil pesanan kerja lepas. Jalanan terlalu licin. Aku dan motorku terperosok ke selokan. Beberapa tulang rusukku patah dan di tengah salju yang menutupi langit, tubuhku perlahan kehilangan suhu. Menjelang ajal, tanganku masih mencengkeram erat kotak lauk daging goreng yang kubeli khusus untuk tambahan makanannya. Setelah jiwaku meninggalkan tubuh, aku melayang kembali ke rumah kontrakan kami yang selalu berangin, tetapi tak ada seorang pun di sana. Aku keluar dan melihat suamiku berdiri rapi dengan setelan jas di sebuah vila mewah yang hanya terpisah satu jalan. Di tangannya sedang menggoyangkan segelas anggur merah dengan santai. Sekelompok pengawal bersikap sangat hormat kepadanya. Aku melayang mendekat dan mendengar dia bergumam, "Aku benar-benar nggak kepengin lagi jalani hidup sengsara begini. Kalau wanita bodoh itu tahu aku pewaris orang terkaya, mungkin dia akan senang setengah mati." "Tapi, ke mana dia pergi? Kenapa belum pulang untuk masak? Benar-benar makin malas saja." Namun dia tidak tahu, aku tidak bisa pulang lagi.

Aku seorang mahasiswa baru. Pelatihan ospek baru selesai kemarin. Pacarku yang sudah menahan rindu hampir setengah bulan, langsung tak sabar memanggilku ke asrama putri. Dengan bantuan dia dan teman asramanya yang membantuku bersembunyi, aku berhasil lolos dari pemeriksaan ibu penjaga asrama dan diam-diam menginap semalam di sana ….

Begitu mulai makan, suamiku langsung tidak dapat mengendalikan mulutnya. Pengalaman tragisku saat masih sekolah pun menjadi “obrolan” dia dan teman-temannya. “Dulu, dia ditelanjangi di kamar mandi. Habis itu, dia dipukul sampai merangkak di lantai, tapi tetap nggak berani bersuara. Kalau bukan karena aku baik hati ....” Kesabaranku akhirnya sudah habis. Aku pun mengajukan cerai. Namun, dia tidak peduli. “Ini cuma candaan kok. Lagian, kejadian itu sudah berlalu begitu lama. Kok kamu kecil hati banget! Kami cuma mau senang-senang kok!” Mau senang-senang? Memangnya hanya aku sendiri yang punya masa lalu? Kenapa dia tidak mengungkit tentang skandal teman semasa kecilnya? Baiklah. Hanya “mau senang-senang”, ‘kan? Aku harap teman semasa kecilnya itu juga berpikiran sama!
