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.

Sisters of Flame

Ophelia Bell

A Red Dragon’s breath is all it takes for most humans to lose their minds with desire. For Erika, all she needs is to lay eyes on her lover, Geva, and she’s ready to have his babies.

Temporarily separated from the true object of her desire, Erika finds herself increasingly distracted by Rowan, Geva’s younger, more powerful, and beautiful sister. It doesn’t help that dragons are typically open with their affections, or that Rowan and her pair of mates keep inadvertently taunting Erika with their sexual rendezvous.

When Erika is finally offered a chance to fulfill her unending curiosity and longing for a deeper connection with the beautiful female Red dragon, she takes it, and not just because her lover would have wanted her to.

After an evening of deep sapphic connection, she may find more than another lover. Will Rowan be able to fulfill a need that Erika didn’t even know she had?

Always You: Falling for my Best Friend

B. E. Harmel

The night of her husband’s funeral, she opens her door to find the last person she ever expected—her high school best friend, her first crush, the boy who vanished years ago and took her heart with him. They’ve both lived whole lives since, with scars they can’t hide. But one look, and the years vanish. The connection is still there—familiar, fierce, and impossible to ignore. Now older, braver, and maybe more broken, they face a choice: take the leap and risk the love they never stopped wanting… or protect their hearts before history repeats itself. Fate rarely knocks twice—but when it does, everything changes.

You hurt us? We really hurt you.

And if you f*ck with us, we will end you.

My name is Bren.

I'm the only female in the Wolf Crew—the best, fiercest, and most dangerous crew there is—and we have a rule: There's no falling in love.

Well… too late.
