Vanessa, tasked with going undercover at a local motorcycle club suspected of illegal activities, finds herself drawn into a gritty, complex world she never expected.

Caught between duty and the magnetic pull of a certain grumpy giant with steely gray eyes, Vanessa faces an impossible dilemma. When everyone around her has secrets and betrayal feels inevitable, Vanessa must decide if the truth is worth the cost—or if her heart will lead her down a different path.

Sun. Sea. Peace. That was the plan. Instead, after an accident, I save a stranger’s life and discover that werewolves actually exist. Before I can even begin to process that information properly, a ridiculously attractive Alpha informs me that I’m his fated mate. Honestly, to this day I’m still not sure what was worse: the existence of werewolves or Amaro’s personality. And if he thinks I’m going to let him boss me around just because fate supposedly decided we belong together, he’s about to get a very unpleasant surprise.

Mira Matic

’’Please,’’ she shivered.

After we slept together, her presence was intoxicating.

I held her chin in my hand, bringing her face even closer to mine.

“If we stop fighting and start fucking,’’ She attempted to shake me off, and I smiled. “Things will go much smoother.”

Tara and Theodore have been at odds since childhood, their rivalry fueled by clashing personalities. She’s the rebellious wild child; he’s the golden boy who always has control. But one impulsive night changes everything, blurring the line between enemies and lovers. Now, Tara is forced to confront her insecurities, while Theodore finds himself drawn to the chaos she brings into his perfectly ordered world. As passion ignites and their worlds collide, they must decide whether to keep fighting each other—or face the possibility that love might be the anchor they never knew they needed.

The American Bodyguard

Laila Callaway

Zainab Qadir is living the dream—editing books by day, ignoring her rich family's spotlight by night. But when her bodyguard quits, she’s stuck with a new one: Jake Huxley, a no-nonsense American who’s suddenly moved into her London flat.

He’s all rules and rigid routines. She’s all sass and spontaneous chaos. Living together is strictly professional... except when it’s absolutely not. Between the close quarters and smoldering tension, they’re on a collision course for trouble—with just enough heat to keep things interesting.

Who’s really guarding who here?

Bad Business

Bad Business

Elise Faber

I was a single dad. I didn’t have time for love.

When I found out I had a son, my life changed for the better. My kid was great. My heart, though, was not. It had been trampled, kicked around, and shredded just for good measure. Obviously, after all that, I wasn’t looking for love.

But then…came Maddie.

She was an integral part of my brother’s company—it would be bad business to start something with her.

Only, she was smart and funny and capable and…my heart didn’t feel like it was in pieces when I was with her.

It felt whole. It felt like it had always been hers. It felt like…I needed to keep her forever.
