Jen Cooper

Nikolai. Braxton. Derik. Three alphas who have pledged to protect the humans in their territory. All they ask in return is one night with the virgins of the villages, one night to take them under the blood moon and complete the ritual. This year is Lorelai’s turn. A winter born, cursed—or blessed—with powers rarely seen, Lorelai has been shunned by the other villagers her whole life. Once she’s taken to the wolves’ mansion, she takes matters into her own hands. After all, what if one night just isn’t enough?

M. L. Smith

"You have always been mine.”

Mina never expected to see her stepbrother again—let alone like this. But when she steps into a secretive club, she walks straight into the arms of the one man who's been watching from the shadows… and waiting to make her his. Ronan, the ruthless head of Boston’s crime syndicate, doesn’t just want her—he owns her now. Years of silent obsession have built to this moment, and he won’t let anything—or anyone—stand between them. As enemies circle and the syndicate teeters on the edge, one thing’s clear: he’s not letting her go, no matter how dark things get.

But one kiss changes everything.

Easy... until she comes home for the summer and sees Storm again—older, inked, and every bit the heartbreaker she used to secretly dream about. One kiss ruins her good intentions. One night makes everything complicated. The boy she wasn’t supposed to want is now the man she can’t resist. Every touch is a secret, every glance a risk. But what started as a fling becomes something neither of them can ignore. Breaking the rules could cost Mia everything—her friendship, her peace, even her heart. But denying how she feels? That might destroy her.

Infinity

Mikayla S

I met my mate as a child.

I was lost in the woods, and his calming voice guided me to safety without ever revealing himself.

Since then, he’s watched over me but never showed himself. I yearn to touch him, to hold him.

Yet still, he lurks in the shadows, never claiming me.

I wonder if there’s something wrong with me. Am I not good enough for him?

But then, when I turn 21, I’m attacked by rogues and left for dead. As I feel the life drain from my body, a creature appears on the edge of my blurry vision.

“Stay strong, little mate. You’re mine now.”

As the mate bond surges between us, I know he’s not a wolf.

He’s something older… Darker… Deadlier.

Who the hell is my mate?

And what will happen to me now?

I stared in awe at the beautiful creature before me.

A Lycan, here in my Pack. This couldn’t be happening.

The Lycans were driven extinct centuries ago. Yet here he was, and I couldn’t fight the magnetic pull dragging me toward him.

“Oh yeah? What?” My father snarled.

The Lycan looked straight at me.

“My mate.”

Cleo has lived her entire life without her wolf, and she’s accepted that she doesn’t have one. But when she meets her mate, a long-lost Lycan king, she feels an awakening that will change her life forever.
