Their Dirty Little Secret

Their Dirty Little Secret

Rowan Cody

Tatum isn’t ready when her father announces he’s remarrying—until rehearsal dinner delivers the real shock: Liam Hays walks in with his two best friends and freezes. He knows her. Too well. Weeks ago they hooked up, and now she’s about to become his stepsister. Their friends know, their circle is watching, and their dirty little secret is about to catch up fast. Between forced smiles, stolen looks, and rising tension, Tatum and Liam must survive the wedding chaos without letting their forbidden spark burn everything down.

Black Sun Academy: The Next Gen. Book 1

Black Sun Academy: The Next Gen. Book 1

R. J. Rogers

When Blaise gets a mysterious letter welcoming her to the Black Sun Academy, she has no idea she’s stepping into a world of magic, danger, and secrets her parents never told her. Suddenly, she’s surrounded by charmers with trouble written all over them—two magnetic twin brothers, a sinfully gorgeous vampire who shouldn’t even be alive, and one dangerously tempting professor. But when Blaise learns her parents may be tied to the tragedy that destroyed the vampire’s family, the truth becomes far more personal—and far more dangerous. Between whispered spells and forbidden glances, she’ll have to decide who to trust before the past consumes them all.

Beloved in the Realms 1: My Demon, My Love

Beloved in the Realms 1: My Demon, My Love

M. L. Knight

"This was a demon whose eyes had seen the wasteful horrors of war; he had been to the depths of hell and lived to tell the tale. Now it was love that was ripping him to pieces. Love was the thing that was destroying his very being."

Reve, a demon prince with battle-scarred eyes, has faced the darkest corners of hell without flinching—yet nothing has ever unraveled him like Azlyn. She’s human, bound to him by chains she never chose, and she’s far too brave for her own good. Sparks flare, tempting them both into dangerous territory neither dares name. The more they fight it, the more the heat rises, until every glance threatens to ignite a blaze they can’t control. But their world is built to keep them apart, and the price for defying it could be ruin. In a realm ruled by fear and desire, can a love like theirs burn bright enough to survive? Or will it be the fire that destroys them both?

Black Hollow 1: Spellbound Luna

Black Hollow 1: Spellbound Luna

Lee Ellis

“Stay out of my way,” the grump growls… while standing way too close. Kat came to Black Hollow for a fresh start, not a tall, feral man who acts like she’s a problem he can’t stop staring at. Before any of the weirdness, she’s just a competent vet tech with a motel hangover and a new job at Thorn Veterinary. Then Kael walks in with an injured German Shepherd and that “touch my dog wrong and I’ll bite” attitude, and Kat has to kneel in front of him to bandage the paw. You’d think he’d say thanks. He says her full name like it tastes good. Which is… rude. Later she follows her tiny black cat into the woods and finds Kael shirtless at an outdoor gym, all sweat and muscles and bad decisions, and he still tries to boss her around (she should hate him—she does hate him). But he grabs a flashlight and leads her onto “pack land” to help her search anyway, and yes, you’re coming with her. They step into the tree line together. Will he pin her to the wall or protect her first?

Yet the moment he meets her, the pull between them is instant, electric, and impossible to ignore. After one unforgettable night, fate twists the knife—Hollie walks into class the next morning, and he’s the man at the front of the room. For humans, it’s forbidden. For wolves, it’s written in the stars.

One wrong move could destroy the friendship he trusts most, but walking away from Carlee feels just as impossible. Between locker-room pressure, big ambitions, and a connection that won’t stay hidden, Holden must decide what he’s willing to risk for one feeling he can’t bench.

B. E. Harmel

In a world of heartbreak and high stakes, one choice could ruin them—or finally set them free.

The Ice Beneath Us

The Ice Beneath Us

Elara Richards

Theo Reid, the star captain of the Stormhawks Ice Hockey Team, lives for the thrill of the game—until he keeps colliding off the ice with someone just as fiery: Victoria Hales, the sharp-tongued, no-nonsense assistant coach of their biggest rival team the Thunderwolves. Sparks fly, tempers flare, and every run-in is a battle of wills… and barely contained chemistry.

What starts as banter turns into stolen moments, late-night phone calls, truths unveiled and passion that neither of them can ignore.

Theo and Tori find themselves tangled in something far deeper than rivalry. As the playoffs heat up, so does their connection. Their love story is spicy, soul-bearing, and totally off-limits… but some lines are meant to be crossed.

We spoke only one language. Sex.

He had me by the hair, my body taut in his other arm. I was so wet already I didn’t know if I could take it if he slid inside me.

He bent me over the desk aggressively, but that caused my libido to peak even further. I felt him massaging his hard length against my ass.

I sighed with desire. Needing him. Right here. Right now...
