Harvest Flower

Harvest Flower

by Chavon Powell

"I didn't want to marry you. I was forced into this. Don't expect much from me I am not skilled in wifely duties." Harvest Flower talked more to the horse than to Running Wolf, but her point was clear.

Harvest Flower arrives at her new home—a village completely unknown to her—carrying a past full of loss and a future she never chose. She is determined to stand tall, even when every stare reminds her she is an outsider. Running Wolf welcomes her with steady patience and quiet fire, certain she is the woman he has waited for since the day he first saw her beneath the waterfall. She isn’t ready to trust easily, and he refuses to rush what could grow between them. As danger circles and doubts whisper, she fights to find her place, while he fights to prove she is already home.

She begs to be stopped before the next full moon. But how do you kill the person you love most? Torn between trust and terror, her mate faces an impossible choice. Because Willow isn’t just fighting what was done to her—she’s fighting what she might become. The clock is ticking. The moon is rising. And the line between savior and threat is about to shatter.

Bad Boy Xavier: Part 1

Bad Boy Xavier: Part 1

by Jen Cooper

“We’ve all got a vice. Mine’s alcohol and punching things. What’s yours?” She asked, refusing to feel bad for her choice in extracurriculars when he had just shot someone in the head because of his. He chuckled dryly.

“Sex mostly.”

Katelynn grows up in a world of bruises, broken promises, and a father whose debts pull her deeper into danger. When a deal gone wrong hands her over to a powerful family, she braces herself for a life of fear. But Xavier, the heir who rules with fire and steel, doesn’t expect a girl who bites back instead of breaking. He’s been trained to pull the trigger without thinking, to take what he wants without asking—but with her, nothing is simple. The girl he should see as a pawn suddenly feels like a battle he doesn’t want to win. And being his captive? It’s supposed to be her worst nightmare. Yet somehow, against every rule and every scar, it feels like something far more dangerous—something she’s not sure she wants to escape.
