Midika Crane

This novel is a contemporary adaptation of STOLEN BY THE ALPHA.

He suddenly lurches forward, grabs my arm, and pushes me up against the wall, one hand holding my wrists above my head. The other pushes my hips against the wall.

“Don’t play me, Phoebe! Not when I’m seriously considering either slitting your throat or ripping your clothes off,” he hisses.

His lips are so close to mine that I feel his breath dance on my skin.

He lets go of me and pushes me into my room.

“Punishment starts tomorrow,” he growls.

Phoebe is not like the other people in her town. She isn’t afraid of the cursed Vengeance MC club president who lurks in the shadows. One night, however, as she sleeps soundlessly in her bed, he kidnaps her. He drags her into a world of secrets and evil, far away from everything she’s ever known. Will President Ash turn Phoebe into a monster just like him? Or will she help him find the light once more?

Mated to the Jerk

Eliza Vasquez

Lily Summers thought leaving her pack meant freedom, but fate has other plans. A single vampire attack shatters her quiet life, thrusting her into danger she can’t ignore. And then there’s Adrian Ryker—insufferable, arrogant, and utterly impossible to resist. He’s everything she’s determined to avoid, yet the pull between them is magnetic, unavoidable. As danger looms and desire simmers, Lily must decide whether she can trust the man she wants to hate—or if letting him in will turn her heart of stone into something unbreakable.

Shades of Fire

Shades of Fire

Daphne Anders

"I stood in the wake of my destruction; satisfied, pleased but forced with an internal longing. Her. I couldn’t separate my mind from the thought of her, even in war. And I knew I was doomed, cursed with a single weakness, surrounded with longing, not even content in my violence any longer. And the Dragon of Ruin, would suffer ruin itself, by the hands of a delicate creature, with no real power except the power of desire."

King Cerion, the fearsome Dragon of Ruin, thrives on chaos and destruction. Feared by his enemies and isolated by his power, he believes he is untouchable—until an innocent princess shatters his resolve. Princess Kira’s quiet strength and unyielding compassion awaken something Cerion thought long buried: the capacity for desire and, perhaps, redemption. But as their worlds collide, Kira must navigate the dangerous line between saving a monster and becoming consumed by him. Can love tame the Dragon of Ruin, or will his fiery wrath consume them both?

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.
