Dragon’s Melody

Dragon’s Melody

Ophelia Bell

“You make it sound so formal,” she said. “Like I won’t actually be your sex slave.”

It was just a simple job transfer interview, but it was far from simple.

After the most mind-blowing ‘interview’ of Melody’s life, she signs a contract with a gorgeous man named Skye, who she believes isn't really human. Neither is his assistant. The sweet, blond Garen is every bit as enticing as his boss. He's even more inhumanly gorgeous and just as hungry for what Melody has to offer.

And she's supposed to work for these two?

Within the first week, everything goes south when she finds herself falling for both elusive men and their otherworldly charms. In spite of the unconventionally intimate ‘position’ she now holds, Melody never considered the possibility of love. She rejected romance for most of her life, because love was her enemy. Love left her mother wanting and left Melody nothing but loneliness for two decades.

The realization that she has to choose between two men she loves beyond all understanding sends her running scared. She refuses to choose, but the only other option is to lose them both and risk even worse heartbreak. Will she follow her heart or lose it all?

Garen and Skye follow, too consumed by love to do anything but compromise for Melody's sake. They forsake their own complicated romance in Melody’s favor, believing only one of them can have her, but she is the one who is burdened with the final choice.

Once in their embrace, she makes her choice—the choice Fate intended all along.

Her Savior

Her Savior

Mandy M.

Her: Twenty years old, forced by her father to marry a violent man.

Him: The Mafia boss who sees her at the hospital and feels called to protect her.

Harper knows exactly what sex with her husband is like. It’s awful.

“I’m sorry,” she says.

Her husband smiles. “Show me how sorry you are.”

Harper takes a few quick breaths to steady herself. She drops to her knees and takes him in her mouth.

He pulls her hair, forcing her to take all of him. She gags.

“Two years,” he says, thrusting his hips with every word. “And you still haven’t learned how to suck my dick.”

What she needs is a savior. When Dante finds her, he wants to be that savior. He vows to get her away from her violent husband for good.

The king of all werewolves and lycans is just as surprised as she is to suddenly find a human woman beneath him, dressed in nothing more than a paper-thin nightgown. His royal responsibilities demand he execute this trespasser from another realm. But his animal instincts urge him to claim her as his.

When Serin stumbles into the realm of Ardanis, nothing feels safe—and nothing feels simple. Her brother’s life is slipping away, yet her path keeps colliding with a cold Crown Prince who stirs more fire than she dares admit. Ardanis hums with secrets, every step shadowed by riddles and half-truths, and the longer she searches for a way home, the deeper she’s drawn into its tangled web. Trust runs thin.

The Invisible Girl

The Invisible Girl

Talissa O'Shrigar

Summer is determined to glide through her final year unnoticed, keeping her life neat, quiet, and drama-free. New school, new rules, no distractions. Easy… until she collides with Jake, the hockey star who is equal parts charm and chaos. Their first meeting is messy, their banter sharper than she expects, and his presence impossible to ignore. Slowly, her careful plans begin to crack as she gets pulled into a world of late nights, loyal friendships, and feelings she never signed up for. The more she resists, the closer he gets. Can she really stay invisible when someone sees her so clearly?

The Artist and the Sports Star

The Artist and the Sports Star

Anya Waine

Tayla Green feels like she exists on the sidelines of her own life. Surrounded by a family obsessed with sports, she is the quiet, book-loving outlier who prefers sketchbooks over stadiums and silence over cheers. When a lost bet forces her into one of her brother’s big games, she meets him—the star athlete from a rival world, loud, confident, and impossible to ignore. Their first clash is anything but gentle, yet something about him keeps pulling her back into his orbit. As their worlds keep colliding, Tayla starts to question everything she thought defined her. Maybe stepping out of her comfort zone is not the mistake she always believed it would be.

Mile High

Mile High

Ophelia Bell

Three years ago, J.J. Santos, Jr. got himself killed—at least that’s what it said on paper. The DEA resurrected me as Mason Black, forcing me to leave behind everyone I’ve ever cared about, including an angel in blue scrubs I can’t seem to get out of my head.

Her name is Dr. Callie Nicolo, and when our paths cross again, I’m in more danger than ever before. But I’m not about to leave her behind this time. Not even if it compromises my identity and my mission.

I’m the kind of man who wants it all. I’ll find a way to pacify the warring cartels on my tail and make up for lost time with the woman of my dreams. Most importantly, I’ll protect what’s mine—the doc who saved my life in more ways than one, and the little girl waiting for me back in Mexico.

As they navigate their charade in front of his family, they all come to adore Athena, and Ares begins to fall for her. Even Athena starts feeling a spark - until she finds out the hurtful truth.

Will their act turn into something real, or will the truth behind Ares' choice keep them apart?
