Auctioned Omega

Auctioned Omega

Sarah Tribus

Aurora always thought she was just another girl in the pack—until her 16th birthday flips her world upside down. She’s an Omega, and in her ruthless pack, that’s not a blessing—it’s a transaction. Now she’s marked as rare and valuable... but only in the worst ways. With her freedom stripped and choices stolen, Aurora is thrown into a brutal system where her worth is measured by the packs that want to claim her. But quiet doesn’t mean weak, and Aurora is about to show everyone exactly what she’s made of. When the world tells her to kneel, will she rise instead?

The Millennium Wolves

The Millennium Wolves

Sapir Englard

Sienna is a nineteen-year-old werewolf with a secret: she's a virgin. The only virgin in the pack. She's dead set on making it through this year's Haze without giving into her primal urges - but when she meets Aiden, the alpha, she forgets all about her self-control.

Stockholm Syndrome

Stockholm Syndrome

Vivienne Wren

“You’re looking for good in a bad man. That’s a dangerous thing to do.”

Zara is trapped, tied, and desperate to escape. The men holding her are ruthless, but it’s their leader who unsettles her most. He’s sharp, cold, unreadable—and the only one she can’t look away from. Every stolen glance chips at her resolve, every dangerous word pulls her deeper into the storm. She knows it’s reckless to search for softness in someone built of shadows, but her heart won’t listen. The lines between fear and longing blur until she can’t tell where danger ends and desire begins. Survival demands distance, yet every moment close to him feels like a secret she’s not ready to give up. Is she falling for her captor—or is she just losing herself?

Dirty Money Book 1: The Million Dollar Virgin

Dirty Money Book 1: The Million Dollar Virgin

Rebekah Halt

Sloane Heathrow was never supposed to apply. It was a joke — a late-night click on a dark web ad offering one million dollars for one virgin. But when a black-and-gold email lands in her inbox with an interview time and location, the joke stops being funny. The offer is real. The contract is binding. And the men behind it are hidden, impossibly wealthy, and completely untouchable. Suddenly, Sloane is pulled into a world built on luxury, secrecy, and control, where every rule is carefully designed to keep her in line. What begins as a bold decision quickly becomes something far more dangerous as boundaries blur, emotions deepen, and the arrangement becomes harder to escape than she ever expected.

Thirty days.

Three men.

One secret she can never tell.

Reed's Sex Academy

Reed's Sex Academy

Rhea Harp

Why do I want this job? Because my sister is in foster care. Because I’m broke and can’t find a decent-paying job. And because I’m seriously on the verge of a breakdown if things don’t start looking up soon.

Mr. Reed opens my eyes, and my body, to the unspoken world of the Academy. I’m powerless to deny him anything. He owns me, and he knows it.

But someone else knows. Someone determined to take both of us down.

Will I survive long enough to get out with my heart intact?

Seeking Bliss

Seeking Bliss

Lainey Mars

By day, Sara does a great impression of a meek, boring virgin living with her parents. At night, she transforms into her smart-mouthed, sassy alter-ego, Jessa Bell - bartender extraordinaire at one of the hottest clubs in Atlanta. With her twenty-first birthday quickly approaching, she has her sights set on moving out on her own and scoring a coveted position at Bliss, one of the most exclusive BDSM clubs on the East Coast. Then one night, three beautiful guys waltz in and forever alter the fabric of her reality. What started off as a simple flirtation soon turns into something so impossible to resist, none of them will ever be the same.

The Last Bloodline 1: Beta Xavier Costa

The Last Bloodline 1: Beta Xavier Costa

Amina Hazim

“What is this?” Eleanor whispered, her voice trembling as she gazed up at Xavier, her eyes glistening with unshed tears.

“Can’t you see? It’s a mating contract agreement,” Xavier replied, his tone devoid of warmth as he looked at her—the woman destined to share his life. Eleanor felt a wave of anxiety wash over her, as if the walls were closing in, amplifying the weight of the moment.

Eleanor never expected to be bound by a six-month mating contract, especially not with Xavier, a man she’s only just met. After losing her mother, she’d held on to the hope that love would find her again, but now she’s facing a forced union with a man whose past is shrouded in mystery and pain. The contract is meant to be temporary, but as Eleanor and Xavier are thrust together, the walls between them grow, and the intensity of their bond is tested. Will they learn to love each other, or will the weight of secrets and unresolved trauma tear them apart?

The Doctor's Mates Book 1

The Doctor's Mates Book 1

Corinthe Davies

Anastasia thrives on chaos, caffeine, and saving lives during long ER night shifts. She expects blood, broken bones, and the occasional miracle, not a secret call that pulls her into a hidden wolf pack with rules of its own. Medicine meets moonlight as instincts stir and bonds snap into place without asking permission. Three powerful wolves circle her world, each reacting differently to the pull they cannot deny. One offers warmth, one offers loyalty, and one clearly wishes she would disappear. Anastasia carries secrets of her own, and staying detached feels safer than trusting fate. But when destiny growls this loudly, can anyone pretend it is not real?

The Alpha Princess

The Alpha Princess

Kellene

After an unimaginable tragedy left her mate dead when she was only eighteen, she’s spent years enduring the annual Claiming Ceremony, where wolves seek to find their fated mates. This year, with no chosen mate by her side, the Beast Council delivers an ultimatum: if Celina isn’t claimed, a mate will be appointed for her, like it or not. Caught between duty, desire, and her own strength, Celina must navigate a world that seeks to control her fate. A thrilling story of power, resilience, and forbidden romance awaits.

Zombie

Zombie

Rowan Cody

Rayna Lincoln was only eight years old when the zombie outbreak shattered the world she knew. Now grown, she survives in a grim new reality where cities are sealed off and ruled by the infected, and stepping into their streets is a death sentence. With no family left, Rayna grows up in the camps outside the cities, where survival comes at a brutal cost and soldiers treat her as little more than a plaything. When she finally loses faith in humanity, an unlikely savior offers her refuge. But safety is never free in a broken world. Has Rayna truly found a haven—or is she being held for a far darker fate?

His plan is simple and terrifying: keep them close until he crosses the border. The danger escalates when Nataly learns he is not just a criminal on the run, but the crime boss of a ruthless organization. Cold, lethal, and covered in death-themed tattoos, he should be everything she fears. Yet under his control, she feels safer than ever before. On the road, fear blurs into desire, rules start to crack, and Nataly must decide if trusting her captor is survival—or the most dangerous mistake of her life.

F. R. Black

Camila is no stranger to blood and betrayal. Her father being Brazil’s biggest drug lord meant she had the finest things money could buy—until he was murdered, at least.

Now she’s bleeding to death in a pool of her own blood and there’s a strange man promising to save her life if she signs a contract with Fairy Godmother Inc.…

Alexis Anneb
