Breath of Love

Breath of Love

Ophelia Bell

The third ritual awaits. But are twin lovers double the pleasure, or double the trouble?

After losing his twin brother, Dimitri has felt adrift in the world. Joining this expedition to find an elusive dragon temple seemed a far-fetched fantasy, but a much-needed distraction nonetheless. Little did he know that the real fantasy was waiting for him inside. Now, doused in dragon magic, his passions have been stoked, and the naughty details of the ritual he keeps hearing about lure him into a chamber where he’s faced with an impossible choice.

Two golden idols stand ready for his attention, each embodying half of Dimitri’s most intimate desires. Together, they form a whole—one he has been searching for even more desperately than he has this ancient locale.

The terms of the ritual dictate he can only choose one. Breaking the rules might lead to his downfall … or to an ascension into pleasure beyond his wildest dreams.

Gabby Walker

On the cusp of the end of the Napoleonic War, Alexander Montgomery, Earl of Lockwood, finds himself under pressure to secure a wife. Duty demands it—but the only woman who captures his interest refuses the idea of marriage altogether. Sophie Bennett is clever, guarded, and hiding a dangerous secret, making her as risky as she is irresistible. What begins as a distraction quickly becomes something far more perilous. As tensions rise and unseen dangers close in, Alex realizes that his growing attachment to Sophie could cost them more than reputation or scandal. In a world shaped by war, expectation, and betrayal, choosing the wrong path could cost both of them their lives.

The Glassblower's Heart: Royal Romance

P. J. Williams

Emilia grows up in a quiet village, shaping glass and a simple life with the woman who raised her. She never questions where she comes from—until a chance encounter with a charming prince turns her world upside down. Drawn into a glittering court filled with whispers and watchful eyes, Emilia finds herself caught between tender new feelings and rising tension she cannot quite understand. Not everyone welcomes her presence, and jealousy begins to stir beneath polished smiles. As secrets flicker just out of reach, Emilia senses that her story is far bigger than she ever imagined. Because sometimes love is only the beginning… and destiny is waiting to be claimed.

What I Hate About You

What I Hate About You

Autumn Ferris

“Every hate hides a love too dangerous to forget.”

Susan believes the cold is the safest place to hide a bruised past. In the wide silence of Alaska, she builds a life that feels calm, controlled, and carefully distant. Then Xavier crashes into her world, all sharp edges, quiet intensity, and a presence that refuses to be ignored. Beneath the northern lights and endless snow, sparks fly where neither expects them. Attraction grows alongside unspoken truths, and every shared moment feels both thrilling and dangerous. They circle each other with humor, heat, and hesitation, drawn together by something deeper than fear. But frozen hearts crack loudly, and some secrets burn hotter than the cold. When survival demands honesty, can connection survive the thaw?
