Kingsley's Bride

Kingsley's Bride

S. S. Sahoo

"I could not breathe.

That image, Lord Kingsley’s face in the moonlight, red-streaked steel in his hand, and those cold, terrifying eyes, was burned into me.

What had I just witnessed?

Who was this man?

And what secrets did the Kingsley Estate keep buried beneath its manicured grounds and placid lake?"

Scarlett never dreams of marrying a man like Lord Darius—cold, unreadable, and carrying secrets darker than midnight. But when her sister vanishes and jilts him at the altar, Scarlett must step into her place as his bride. Now trapped in a marriage she never wanted, she can’t ignore the mysteries swirling around the Kingsley estate—or the chilling night she saw Darius with blood on his blade. With whispers of betrayal, long-buried family secrets, and a sister who may not have left by choice, Scarlett is caught in a dangerous game. Yet the more she clashes with her forbidding husband, the harder it becomes to tell where fear ends and desire begins.

“If I do it, will you finally shut up?” I ask.

Alexa claps happily. “A million times, yes!”

Little did Aria know what she signed up for. In the Hunger Games of love, can she come out the victor?

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?

Slave of the Onyx Dragon

Slave of the Onyx Dragon

Silver Taurus

When Valkyrie, a slave, is kidnapped by the Onyx Dragon—also known as Dimitri—she hardly expects to discover that she is his destined mate. Their journey from prisoner and captor to lovers and rulers of all dragons is far from smooth, especially since Valkyrie is plagued by shadowy memories and fear of the powers she holds within herself. And as word of Dimitri's new mate travels, other actors in neighboring kingdoms begin to take interest in her and her murky past...many of them with evil motives...

Beloved Runt

Beloved Runt

M. J. Watts

Lord Edmon Huntington has been traveling for months from pack to pack on the king’s orders to take a comprehensive census. Secretly, he has a more pressing task to fulfil for his king. He didn’t expect much when he went to see the Ever Green pack in the kingdom’s far-flung wilderness—remote packs were too simple to amount to anything. But when their strength surpassed his predictions, his questions began to cluster around the pack’s runt. Scarred and limping, Artemis may not seem like much at first, but buried deep within her is a powerful secret that even she may not be aware of. What is the pack so desperately trying to hide? And when the time comes, will the pack—and Lord Edmon—be willing to let go of the way things were before?
