Storms and Shadows Book 1: The Crown's Shadow

Ember Lorelle

Azariah was never meant to wear the crown of the Dragon Kingdom. Her place was in the shadows, guarding the throne, not claiming it. But destiny doesn’t bend—it shifts, it twists, and now it demands she step into the light. At twenty-five, her time has run out. The throne calls, the crown settles, and the tides of change surge around her. Yet when one mistake unleashes consequences she cannot control, a powerful Fae emissary arrives to test her resolve. The Dragon Kingdom stands strong, but Azariah must face the truth: destiny may grant her the crown, but it will never let her rest easy.

Rue’s world cracks in a single, brutal moment, and then goes blessedly quiet. She wakes in a mansion that feels too grand to be kind, with no memory of who she was or what she lost. The man watching over her is magnetic, powerful, and very clear about one thing—she belongs here. He offers comfort wrapped in control, safety laced with desire, and answers only when he chooses. As Rue adjusts to her glittering new reality, flashes of emotion surface without explanation. Is she finally cherished, or simply claimed? Either way, the pull between them is impossible to ignore.

Shades of Fire

Shades of Fire

Daphne Anders

"I stood in the wake of my destruction; satisfied, pleased but forced with an internal longing. Her. I couldn’t separate my mind from the thought of her, even in war. And I knew I was doomed, cursed with a single weakness, surrounded with longing, not even content in my violence any longer. And the Dragon of Ruin, would suffer ruin itself, by the hands of a delicate creature, with no real power except the power of desire."

King Cerion, the fearsome Dragon of Ruin, thrives on chaos and destruction. Feared by his enemies and isolated by his power, he believes he is untouchable—until an innocent princess shatters his resolve. Princess Kira’s quiet strength and unyielding compassion awaken something Cerion thought long buried: the capacity for desire and, perhaps, redemption. But as their worlds collide, Kira must navigate the dangerous line between saving a monster and becoming consumed by him. Can love tame the Dragon of Ruin, or will his fiery wrath consume them both?

When we’re not stripping down old wrecks or attending car shows, the guys plan to court me. That’s right: all three of them want to marry me—at once!

Vivienne Wren

His touch hums with danger, his gaze smolders with want, yet shadows cling to him like smoke. Sidra knows there’s more to him than the walls he builds—and when she uncovers the secret he’s hiding, it collides with her own grief in ways she never saw coming. Desire this raw can heal or destroy. And when love is built on scars, it might burn hotter than either of them can survive.

Ahanaa Rose

His cold eyes raked my body, and I hated the tremble that went down my spine.

“Of course, I remember you,” he said, his lip curling. “I never forget a good fuck.”

Anger surged through me, and I cocked back my hand for a slap, but he caught it easily.

He smirked, thinking he’d won. But he’d forgotten about my other hand…

Which I curled into a fist. And fired into his face.
