L. T. Marshall

Camilla Walters thought her luck had run out when she was cornered by drug runners she couldn’t pay. But fate intervened in the form of Alexi Carrero, head of the powerful Carrero family. Alexi’s rescue wasn’t without strings—Camilla had to make a deal with the devil to save her life. Thrust into his dangerous world, Camilla finds herself battling her emotions as she’s drawn deeper into Alexi’s web of control, danger, and irresistible charm. This isn’t a love story full of hearts and roses; it’s a tale of survival, power plays, and forbidden attraction. Let the games begin.

Chaotic Soul

Riley Adams is what high schoolers would call a nerd: booksmart and shy, with zero fashion sense. Tristan Harris is the exact opposite: captain of the football team, and the hottest guy in school by far. To say they don’t get along is putting it mildly… But then Riley starts offering private lessons to make some quick cash. Sure, they might despise each other, but it’s a thin line between love and hate.

When Liana immediately flees, Lucian begins the chase of a lifetime. Will he be able to capture the heart of his fated and convince her to accept his bite, or will she choose her pack and her ex-lover over him?

When Dominic is wounded in battle and Violet is ordered to his side, she convinces the timid Lilac to take her place.

Daphne Watson

“Spread your legs.” His icy tone left no room for debate.

I let out an involuntary groan as his rough fingers slid inside me, sending goosebumps down my spine. I was already soaking wet for him.

“N-no…,” I begged, coming to my senses.

He leaned in until I could smell the mint on his breath.

“No?” He chuckled. “Oh my dear, I don’t think you understand how this works yet…”

The last thing Katherine expects when she moves to London is to cross paths with billionaire mafioso Xavier Lexington. Powerful, dark, and deadly, he wants Katherine all for himself. But when he steals her away to ravage her body, Katherine is left with one question: Can she escape the ruthless mafia billionaire before he captures her forever?

Emily Dash

Ian builds his world underground, filling a basement apartment with hobbies, screens, and rules that keep the outside safely away. Solitude feels controlled, predictable, and calm. Then Natalie crashes in with sharp wit, fearless energy, and nowhere else to go. Sparks fly fast, messy, and impossible to ignore. What starts as a thrilling secret quickly digs deeper, stirring buried fears and long-ignored needs on both sides. Ian clings to safety while Natalie searches for belonging, and neither is very good at pretending this is casual. Desire, vulnerability, and hope tangle together in a story about risk, trust, and the courage it takes to step into the light. Can two guarded hearts learn how to breathe again?

B. Chase

So, you want to know what it’s like to be sex trafficked by aliens?

Cages and shock collars suck. My chained wrists are hoisted so high I’m straining on my tiptoes. My transparent dress explicitly displays my body to alien bidders. Being a gift for an alien general isn’t a confidence booster. And the food is extremely hit or miss.
