Elle Chipp

Leah Darcy is late for her very first day in Helion’s Kitchen, and little does she know she’ll be getting more than just a slap on the wrist… Running his kitchen based on rewards and punishment, Helion is quickly pushing her to the limit. And she starts to wonder if she’s sticking it out for the job or for him.

My Cowboy

My Cowboy

Tinkerbelle Leonhardt

Cora’s got her life all figured out—so when her estranged father leaves her a massive inheritance with the catch of living on his ranch out in the countryside, she’s more annoyed than anything.

At least until she meets Hael, the sexy cowboy who works on her new ranch. Will the southern heartthrob be enough to keep Cora’s heart out in the country, or will the stresses of her new life and the mystery of her father’s will drive her back to big-city living?

At the very least, she’s got a sexy cowboy at her disposal, and she’s always wanted to take riding lessons…

Conflict of Interest

Conflict of Interest

Daphne Anders

Olivia has spent her whole life following the rules her father sets for her, right down to the powerful law firm she’s about to join. Then one unforgettable night at a glamorous legal gala changes everything. Alaric is older, untouchable, and completely off-limits—her father’s closest friend, trusted business partner, and now the man she’ll be working under every single day. The chemistry between them is impossible to ignore, no matter how hard they try to bury it beneath sharp suits, witty banter, and professional distance. But stolen glances quickly become dangerous temptation. In a world built on reputation, secrets travel fast, and one wrong move could ruin everything they’ve worked for. Too bad resisting each other is becoming a full-time job.

Between Breaths

Between Breaths

A. Duncan

Arabella is not exactly thriving. Life feels heavy, stress is her sidekick, and now her health is acting up too. But then along comes a certain personal trainer—annoyingly charming, maddeningly good-looking, and somehow making her laugh again. With her best friend cheering her on and a few unexpected sparks flying, Arabella starts to remember what it feels like to live. But when her health takes a sharp turn, she’s forced to face choices no one wants to make. Between fear and fire, joy and heartbreak, Arabella must figure out what really matters—and if she’s ready to fight for it. Sometimes love doesn’t fix everything… but it might just make it worth it.

Command

Command

Zainab Sambo

Beth’s world shatters when she’s taken by the man everyone calls a monster. Rogue is cold, ruthless, and broken in ways she can’t yet understand. But the longer she’s trapped in his shadow, the more cracks she sees in his armor—and the more her fear starts to burn into something she can’t name. Desire. Defiance. Dangerous tenderness. He wants to own her; she wants to survive him. Yet somewhere between hatred and longing, their hearts rewrite the rules. Now Beth must decide: escape the man who stole her freedom, or stay with the one who taught her what it means to truly feel alive.

Beyond Black & White Series Book 1: Bishop

Beyond Black & White Series Book 1: Bishop

A. Duncan

Bishop is a gifted, guilt-ridden doctor who runs from duty and lands in a shadowed town. He stitches strangers by day and outruns himself by night. Quiet is his refuge—until Kallie. She is fierce, clever, and deaf; her silence steadies his storm. With her, the ache softens. But Bishop holds a secret with teeth, the kind that makes death keep its distance and turns a man into something else. When danger prowls and choices tighten, he must decide what to risk: the lie that keeps her safe, or the truth that could set them both on fire. What will Kallie see when the mask slips and the monster looks back?

The Wolf Affliction

The Wolf Affliction

Suze Wilde

She screamed in fright, tripping over her own feet to get away from me.

“Goddess, you could wake the dead with that scream, never mind the neighborhood. What are you doing down here? Come to meet Warren?” I grabbed her arm and pulled her upright.

“I thought I was the crazy one. Now I think I’m the only sane one in this entire fucking town. I’m leaving!”

Jedson didn’t want Juno. He’d been rejected once before and vowed never to be that vulnerable again. Juno had no idea she would land in a remote area when she jumped into the boxcar to get away from her assailant. And now she was captive to the most handsome man she’d ever met, who sent such mixed signals and refused to give her back the pills she needed to combat her auditory hallucinations.

Just as she’s ready to swear off love, her ridiculously handsome, younger boss, Roman, swoops in with a wild offer: he’ll play cupid. For him, it’s just a fun distraction… or so he thinks. But helping Millie find love quickly turns complicated when he starts falling—hard. Now Millie has to figure out if the man she’s been searching for… is the one she never expected. Lines blur, sparks fly, and suddenly the rules don’t matter.

Boxing Day

Boxing Day

Jen Cooper

“Spread your legs, Millie.”

I couldn’t believe I was in the boxing ring with the head coach of my dad's gym. Leo was over a decade older and completely off-limits.

And he was training me in secret.

When I entered the Boxing Day tournament to save my bakery, my whole family bet against me. If my dad found out Leo was coaching me to win, he’d fire Leo and disown me forever.

Imagine what he’d do if he knew what else was going on between us.

Leo kicked my feet apart and gave me a smirk I knew was going to cause trouble. “Good girl.”

But I was starting to think a little trouble was worth it.

King Reiks Book 1: King Reiks

Daphne Anders

On the planet Kepler, Princess Lyra stands at the edge of her destiny—and wants nothing to do with it. As one of the last Evols in the galaxy, she’s bound by ancient tradition to wed a king her father selects. Unfortunately for her stubborn streak, that king is Reiks: towering warlord of Valvor, feared by worlds, admired by none for his patience. He craves a bride who is strong, beautiful, and obedient. Lyra is two out of three… and proudly defiant about the last. What follows is a battle of wills so charged it could set galaxies ablaze, where every glance feels like a dare, and every touch threatens to rewrite the rules neither of them planned to break.

Beloved in the Realms 1: My Demon, My Love

Beloved in the Realms 1: My Demon, My Love

M. L. Knight

"This was a demon whose eyes had seen the wasteful horrors of war; he had been to the depths of hell and lived to tell the tale. Now it was love that was ripping him to pieces. Love was the thing that was destroying his very being."

Reve, a demon prince with battle-scarred eyes, has faced the darkest corners of hell without flinching—yet nothing has ever unraveled him like Azlyn. She’s human, bound to him by chains she never chose, and she’s far too brave for her own good. Sparks flare, tempting them both into dangerous territory neither dares name. The more they fight it, the more the heat rises, until every glance threatens to ignite a blaze they can’t control. But their world is built to keep them apart, and the price for defying it could be ruin. In a realm ruled by fear and desire, can a love like theirs burn bright enough to survive? Or will it be the fire that destroys them both?
