The Artist and the Sports Star

Anya Waine

Tayla Green feels like she exists on the sidelines of her own life. Surrounded by a family obsessed with sports, she is the quiet, book-loving outlier who prefers sketchbooks over stadiums and silence over cheers. When a lost bet forces her into one of her brother’s big games, she meets him—the star athlete from a rival world, loud, confident, and impossible to ignore. Their first clash is anything but gentle, yet something about him keeps pulling her back into his orbit. As their worlds keep colliding, Tayla starts to question everything she thought defined her. Maybe stepping out of her comfort zone is not the mistake she always believed it would be.

As memories tangle with present-day sparks, Lennie has to decide if old wounds can ever lead to new beginnings. Fate seems to have its own plans—and Colt still knows how to make her pulse forget everything she swore she’d never feel again.

Six-year-old Estella Graham stood traumatized at the edge of the forest, weary of the wolves that approached the fiery car wreck that had claimed her family. But there was something comforting about the scent of Max, as he transported her to the safety of his pack house. She never wanted to let him go. Max Kinsky didn’t want a mate, content to pursue his medical calling and play the field until the night his wolf identified his mate in this girl who stood in the smoke of a car fire. Unfathomable, but if true, he’d have to wait years until she was old enough to fulfill The Moon Goddess’s plans for them. Until then, he’d have to carry the secret of their destiny, and hope her life wouldn’t lead her away before it was appropriate to tell her.

On the planet Kepler, Princess Lyra stands at the edge of her destiny—and wants nothing to do with it. As one of the last Evols in the galaxy, she’s bound by ancient tradition to wed a king her father selects. Unfortunately for her stubborn streak, that king is Reiks: towering warlord of Valvor, feared by worlds, admired by none for his patience. He craves a bride who is strong, beautiful, and obedient. Lyra is two out of three… and proudly defiant about the last. What follows is a battle of wills so charged it could set galaxies ablaze, where every glance feels like a dare, and every touch threatens to rewrite the rules neither of them planned to break.

Lena Carter has one rule she refuses to break—Jaxon Walker is off limits. He’s her best friend’s older brother, the school’s star point guard, and the last person she should ever want. But rules have a funny way of bending when Jaxon decides he’s not going anywhere. What starts as teasing banter and sharp-tongued exchanges slowly shifts into something heavier, charged with stolen glances and moments that linger too long. Lena keeps telling herself to stay away, to stay loyal, to stay safe. Yet every interaction pulls her closer to the one person she swore she wouldn’t fall for. And when lines finally blur, she has to decide if protecting the truth is worth losing the only connection that feels real.

Sarah Tribus

At seventeen, Skara hides behind the label of a weak Omega, enduring daily taunts and bruises at a wolf school ruled by the Alpha’s son. But Skara isn’t who they think she is. Beneath the quiet, the bruises, and the lowered gaze, power hums—ancient, dangerous, and beautifully hers. Forced to stay invisible to survive, she must mask the truth of what she really is: a rare hybrid with magic in her blood and a destiny that refuses to stay buried. When tempers flare and secrets start to crack, one look from the wrong pair of green eyes might ignite everything she’s tried so hard to hide.

Shades of Fire

Shades of Fire

Daphne Anders

"I stood in the wake of my destruction; satisfied, pleased but forced with an internal longing. Her. I couldn’t separate my mind from the thought of her, even in war. And I knew I was doomed, cursed with a single weakness, surrounded with longing, not even content in my violence any longer. And the Dragon of Ruin, would suffer ruin itself, by the hands of a delicate creature, with no real power except the power of desire."

King Cerion, the fearsome Dragon of Ruin, thrives on chaos and destruction. Feared by his enemies and isolated by his power, he believes he is untouchable—until an innocent princess shatters his resolve. Princess Kira’s quiet strength and unyielding compassion awaken something Cerion thought long buried: the capacity for desire and, perhaps, redemption. But as their worlds collide, Kira must navigate the dangerous line between saving a monster and becoming consumed by him. Can love tame the Dragon of Ruin, or will his fiery wrath consume them both?

Slowly, her careful plans begin to crack as she gets pulled into a world of late nights, loyal friendships, and feelings she never signed up for. The more she resists, the closer he gets. Can she really stay invisible when someone sees her so clearly?
