Manesto Nights

Manesto Nights

by S. L. Adams

Vicky bolts from her wedding in full escape mode—veil, nerves, and all—only to end up trapped inside a department store with four complete strangers. Outside, toxic smoke clouds Alaska’s skies, but inside, the air is charged with something entirely different. As days stretch into nights, tension and attraction tangle in the aisles of camping gear and power tools. Vicky swore she’d never let anyone claim her again, yet these men make her question everything she ran from. Between laughter, longing, and late-night confessions, she might just find what freedom really means… and who she wants to share it with.

The Camping Series Book 1: Camp Starry Nights

by Sophie Jones

Lake St. James returns to Camp Starry Nights hoping for a clean break from heartbreak, drama, and everything that has left him questioning who he is. The camp once felt like home, a place filled with laughter, late-night talks, and the kind of memories that glow long after summer ends. But this return is anything but simple. Familiar paths lead to familiar faces, including one person Lake never expected to see again. Old feelings stir beneath quiet glances and shared spaces, turning nostalgia into something deeper and harder to ignore. As the summer unfolds, Lake finds himself navigating past wounds, present tension, and the fragile hope that maybe some stories deserve another chance.

Forbidden

by Mandy M.

Dragon’s Melody

Dragon’s Melody

by Ophelia Bell

“You make it sound so formal,” she said. “Like I won’t actually be your sex slave.”

It was just a simple job transfer interview, but it was far from simple.

After the most mind-blowing ‘interview’ of Melody’s life, she signs a contract with a gorgeous man named Skye, who she believes isn't really human. Neither is his assistant. The sweet, blond Garen is every bit as enticing as his boss. He's even more inhumanly gorgeous and just as hungry for what Melody has to offer.

And she's supposed to work for these two?

Within the first week, everything goes south when she finds herself falling for both elusive men and their otherworldly charms. In spite of the unconventionally intimate ‘position’ she now holds, Melody never considered the possibility of love. She rejected romance for most of her life, because love was her enemy. Love left her mother wanting and left Melody nothing but loneliness for two decades.

The realization that she has to choose between two men she loves beyond all understanding sends her running scared. She refuses to choose, but the only other option is to lose them both and risk even worse heartbreak. Will she follow her heart or lose it all?

Garen and Skye follow, too consumed by love to do anything but compromise for Melody's sake. They forsake their own complicated romance in Melody’s favor, believing only one of them can have her, but she is the one who is burdened with the final choice.

Once in their embrace, she makes her choice—the choice Fate intended all along.

Ethan tries to act fine, but the words keep echoing, turning one small moment into something he can’t forget. Because maybe it wasn’t just a kiss… and maybe Julio knows it too.
