Forced Marriage to the Secret Billionaire CEO

by P. J. Williams

Adrianna’s future is not hers to choose when her father forces an impossible ultimatum—marry a stranger or lose everything she has worked toward. Determined to hold onto her dreams, she agrees, expecting the worst. Instead, she finds herself tied to Kayson, a sharp, powerful man who is nothing like she imagined. Their arrangement is meant to be simple, but nothing about it feels easy. As tensions rise and quiet alliances form, Adrianna refuses to shrink, chasing her ambitions while learning how to stand her ground. Kayson, guarded yet fiercely protective, proves to be both an unexpected challenge and a surprising ally. In a world of pressure and hidden motives, something real begins to grow where neither of them planned it.

The Devil's Daughter

The Devil's Daughter

by Ophelia Bell

I never imagined myself as a pawn in a dangerous game between two crime lords. But that was before I discovered I’m secretly one of their daughters, and suddenly I’m not just a girl, but an asset in need of protecting.

At least two of my new guard dogs are Ben and Baz, a pair of twins I grew up with—and wow, have they grown. Not only do they handle security for Drake Stavros—the sexy, haunted billionaire whose tower I’m forced to occupy for the duration of this cartel blood feud–but they’ve gotten hotter too, brooding sentinels covered in muscles and tattoos.

Drake is supposed to be using his near-limitless resources to keep me safe, with the twins there to make sure he follows through. But I’m beginning to realize the danger I’m in isn’t limited to the world outside as desires darker than my criminal bloodlines awaken within me, threatening to undo us all.

Author’s Note: “The Devil’s Daughter” is a reverse-harem romance.

The FAE Series 1: FAE

The FAE Series 1: FAE

by Colet Abedi & Jasmine Abedi

FAE is the first installment in a gripping trilogy of Light versus Dark: FAE, by novelists Colet Abedi and Jasmine Abedi. Inspired by a mystery that remains unsolved more than 400 years later – the Lost Colony of Roanoke Island – and with compelling narrative urgency, the authors transport the reader into the world of the Fae, both Light and Dark, as the battle that has been destined for thousands of years is about to begin…

Manteo High School student Caroline Ellis just turned sixteen, setting in motion a series of events that have been fated for centuries. Little does she know that she is the rightful heir to the throne of the Light Fae, and it is believed that she is the one to unite the Light and the Dark through union with her soul mate: heir to throne of the Dark Fae, Devilyn Reilly.

Devilyn is the only one of the Fae who is both of the Light and of the Dark and must struggle to maintain that precarious balance and not to succumb to the power of the Dark within him. Understanding his mission – that he is the only one who can save Caroline from those who would destroy her; destroy all hope for unity amongst the Fae and the very future of humanity – he is reluctantly enrolled at Manteo High School, quickly becoming its star quarterback.

After a tumultuous relationship, Devilyn tells Caroline who she is. Who he is. He promises her that he will protect her at all costs, and this also means protecting her from him. They can and never will be together, for the prophecy also makes clear that the union that will bring peace amongst the Fae will also bring Caroline’s own destruction...

Told from the alternating perspectives of Caroline and Devilyn, FAE draws on mysteries, myths and legends to create a world, and a romance, dangerously poised between Light and Dark.
