Rinkside Rivalry

Rinkside Rivalry

Bella Ravyn

Emery lands her dream assignment covering a high-stakes hockey season, ready to prove she belongs. The only problem? Carter, the team’s arrogant co-captain, who pushes every button she has. Their history is messy, their banter sharp, and their patience with each other… nonexistent. Yet the closer they work, the harder it becomes to ignore the tension crackling beneath every glare and sarcastic remark. Between locker room chaos, late-night deadlines, and moments that feel a little too real, lines begin to blur. Is it rivalry, or something far more dangerous? Because on this ice, the biggest risk isn’t losing the game—it’s losing control of their hearts.

The Wolf Wars Saga

The Wolf Wars Saga

Michelle Torlot

From the author of Choose Me or Lose Me.

After the Wolf Wars, the werewolves and humans agreed to an uneasy truce and divided the world among themselves. Werewolves took the forests and plains, and humans took the cities and towns. Humanity was further segregated into Workers and Elites. Now, food is scarce and the Workers are starving, which is how twelve-year-old Worker Ellie winds up hungry and stranded in werewolf territory. Are werewolves really the fearsome beasts she’s been warned about, or have the Elites been hiding the truth?

The Dragon's Bride

The Dragon's Bride

P. J. Williams

Catori grows up in a snowbound village where secrets run deeper than the ice. Restless and fierce, she dreams of a life beyond silence and obedience. Then fate cracks her world open—revealing dragons still soar and her bond to them burns brighter than she ever imagined. What begins as defiance becomes a journey tangled in love, loyalty, and power. Battles awaken ancient forces, alliances test her trust, and passion sparks against the shadows. Every heartbeat brings her closer to a throne written in fire and loss, where desire collides with destiny. In a world where love is a weapon and loyalty a shield, Catori must decide if she’s willing to claim the crown waiting in her blood.

Tabula Rasa

Tabula Rasa

Ophelia Bell

The first dragon has awakened, but the next requires a virgin sacrifice.

Brilliant, bookish Camille has been lusting over her fellow expedition member, Eben, ever since they entered the Sumatran jungle. Her shyness has thus far kept them apart, but now that they’ve breached the mysterious temple they’ve been searching for, things are getting even hotter, wetter, and steamier than the jungle outside.

Compelled by the irresistible allure of dragon magic, Camille discovers that she is the key to the second part of a ritual meant to awaken a race of creatures the world hasn’t seen in half a millennium. But it’s not just their awakening that depends on it—it’s Camille’s too, for unless she gives in to her carnal desires, she’ll never earn Eben’s attention and sate her own desperate hunger.

And all the while, the hard, sculpted figure of a white dragon beckons, willing her to shed her inhibitions and experience the greatest pleasure she’s ever known.

Bereft

Alexander Grey

Tobias never meant to return to competitive swimming. The pool holds too many memories, and quitting once felt like the only way to breathe. But when circumstances force him back onto the team, he slams into the one person determined to break him—the ruthless captain who thrives on control and victory. Rivalry ignites fast: sharp words, brutal practices, and races that feel personal. Yet beneath the anger, something else burns. Attraction creeps into every challenge, turning competition into temptation. And in a world built on discipline, Tobias learns the heart may be the wildest race of all.
