"If you want to keep your job and save the others, I have a proposition that will benefit both of us," he said as he towered over her.

Gabriel Maestri is rich, ruthless, and terrifyingly untouchable—the kind of man whispered about in fear. They call him the Demon of Italy, and he lives up to the name. Paige Mosley is everything he’s not: kind, innocent, and determined to save her job—and the others—when she hears the hotel may shut down. Her plan? Make a deal with the devil himself. But power games come with a price, and feelings were never part of the bargain. As Gabriel's cold exterior starts to crack, Paige wonders—can she melt the heart of a man who claims he doesn’t have one? Or will she lose herself trying?

Emery lands her dream assignment covering a high-stakes hockey season, ready to prove she belongs. The only problem? Carter, the team’s arrogant co-captain, who pushes every button she has.

Twins Emmanuel and Ezekiel knew from a young age that they would become Alphas one day. Through their research, they find a pack desperate for new leadership. As soon as they are of age, they challenge the pack’s Alpha. The brothers win, but it comes at a price: they end up killing the Alpha, and his son runs off and cannot be found. Years later, Em and Ez are now college professors, and everything in their life has fallen into place, except for one thing: they haven’t met their mate yet. And they know they are destined to share one. Then they meet Rosemary Moore. A shifter whose parents have already passed, Rose has been raised by her religious, disapproving, human grandmother. Discovering she has been fated to two mates is not something she can easily reconcile thanks to her upbringing.

And can they really protect her when the previous Alpha’s son is still out there, plotting revenge?

Ophelia Bell

I’m the female heir to LA’s underground empire, which makes love a liability. But there are two men I won’t give up … no matter the cost.

The other is my bodyguard, a man who would take a bullet for me, and nearly dies trying to do just that.

Daring to bring us together for one explosive night of passion puts all three of our lives on a collision course with one of the most deadly Mexican cartels.
