The Secrets of Sin

The Secrets of Sin

E. J. Lace

So you want to know the secrets of sin?

Mari. Marcella. Kitten. The dirty Angel of Sin… I grab the shaft of my cock as she struts into the room, white dress clinging to her curves. Her hand drifts along my shoulders, down my back, red nails tearing at my hot skin. “You’re so big,” she moans, “Please, give it to me, Beasty.”

Enter if you dare…

Bully

Bully

Emily Dash

Evie does her best to stay small, hoping the school’s spotlight—and Noah’s sharp tongue—never lands on her for too long. But one moment of compassion pulls her straight into Noah’s world, cracking the mask he hides behind and exposing the bruised places neither of them ever show. A charged encounter leads to a kiss that should never happen, and suddenly the roles they’ve worn for years no longer fit. As whispers spread and loyalties twist, Evie tries to hold on to her quiet life while discovering a side of Noah that disarms her. Noah battles the pressure to stay who everyone expects. Their fragile bond pushes them to face truth, shame, and the longing to finally be seen.

The Hookup

The Hookup

Lynn Fair

At Westbridge University, hockey star Wyatt Pierce is used to getting what he wants—until he collides with Rory Dillon, a sharp-tongued journalism major who refuses to be impressed. What starts as a no-strings hookup turns into late-night texts, stolen moments, and campus-wide rumors neither of them can control. With the spotlight closing in, they’ll have to decide if this is just trouble…or something real.

Pet-Brother Series Book 1: Pet-Brother

Pet-Brother Series Book 1: Pet-Brother

PostScriptRegrets

Hayden Clover is the school's golden boy. Perfect grades, perfect face, perfect body, a pro in every sport and a total sweetheart. He's the guy everyone can't help but like. Enter Jamie Abbott; Hayden's new step-brother.

Jamie is the complete opposite of Hayden. He's rude, sarcastic, and if he weren't so undeniably attractive, he'd be the last person you'd want to talk to. But aside from all this, he's the one person Hayden can't stop thinking about. And the one person Hayden can't seem to impress.

The Hockey Reporter's Diary

The Hockey Reporter's Diary

Daphne Anders

Camille is a former Olympic star who now reports on the hockey world she swore she was done with. She loves the game but rolls her eyes at the players, especially with her own father’s messy legacy trailing behind her. After every interview, she pours her uncensored thoughts into a private journal that keeps her sane. Until it doesn’t. One slip, and Benjamin—the charming new assistant captain with a grin that should be illegal—ends up with her secrets in his hands. He offers a deal she never expects. One date. One chance. Could the man she’s sworn to avoid be the one who shakes her walls loose?

Hate Notes

Hate Notes

Zainab Sambo

A small-town florist. A superstar quarterback. A decade of hate notes that were never meant to be seen.

Iris writes hate notes the way other people breathe: privately, viciously, and just to survive the mess Jesse left behind. Then someone drags her most humiliating thoughts into the light, and overnight Iris becomes the internet's favourite new obsession, "the girl who hates the quarterback."

Jesse, now a pro football star with a talent for turning charm into armour, comes home determined to handle it. Iris would rather set her hydrangeas on fire than let him control the story again. Especially when the leaks keep coming, the spotlight gets meaner, and her life starts to catch literal heat.

With a steady, too kind ER doctor offering safety, and Jesse refusing to let her go, Iris is trapped between the man who knows her best and the one who feels like an escape. But someone in their small town is fanning the flames on purpose, and if Iris wants her future back, she'll have to risk the one thing she swore she'd never give Jesse again: the truth.

Chaotic Soul

He is warm, steady, and hopeful, the kind of man who believes in showing up fully. Attraction flares fast, playful and intense, challenging every rule Jade lives by. While she guards her heart with sharp humor and logic, Tanner sees possibility in every shared moment. Heat builds, and the future starts whispering louder than plans.

Love Me Not

Vivienne Wren

Sidra doesn’t move to Australia expecting her world to spin off its axis—but one reckless, breath-stealing moment with a maddeningly gorgeous local sets her on fire. Isaac is temptation in human form: brooding, beautiful, and determined to push her away, even as sparks fly between them. His touch hums with danger, his gaze smolders with want, yet shadows cling to him like smoke. Sidra knows there’s more to him than the walls he builds—and when she uncovers the secret he’s hiding, it collides with her own grief in ways she never saw coming. Desire this raw can heal or destroy. And when love is built on scars, it might burn hotter than either of them can survive.
