But Madison’s life is upended when she sees the twins again. Suddenly they don’t feel so much like brothers to her, and she doesn’t feel like their friends’ bratty little sister to them, either...

Blame It on Paris

Blame It on Paris

Aimee Ginger

Anelise Morgan was trying to break free from the sheltered life that her parents had raised her in. She was in college spreading her wings, growing and becoming her own person. She was even lucky enough to find a best friend and surrogate family to help guide her and love her. She felt like the world was just waiting for her to experience it. Michael Whitlock was desperate for help with his son. So when his neighbors offered their daughter as an option, he jumped on the idea. He had no idea what was in store for him when he saw her the first time. She was nothing like pictures at her parent’s home and he was awestruck by the sight before him. All he knew was that his heart had never beat the way it had been since he laid eyes on her.

Taken By The Mafia

Taken By The Mafia

Annie Whipple

“Good morning, bella mia.”

He brought my earlobe into his mouth. It felt incredible, but I didn't want to give him the satisfaction, so I kept my eyes shut.

“I know you’re awake, Freya,” He kissed my neck. “Not gonna open your eyes? Okay, let’s play…”

I felt him move so that he was on top of me. I instinctively spread my legs just a little so the most dangerous mafia don in the country could slide his body between them.

When Freya wakes up in an Italian villa next to a gorgeous stranger, she has no idea how she got there. As she examines the mysterious Greek god of a man next to her, she tries to remember… was he an innocent one-night stand? Or something else?

The Devil's Carnage MC: Grim

The Devil's Carnage MC: Grim

Roanna Hinks

There were rumors about him from brothers and the club girls, but nothing stuck.

I said nothing to him, thinking he would leave or even grunt at me when I walked past.

Moving from where I stood, I turned my back to him, which wasn’t the best move I ever made.

Nova never expected much from the club—just survival, not love. But everything changes the night Grim steps out of the shadows and claims her with one word. He’s danger in denim, mystery in a leather cut, and the only man who’s ever made her feel truly seen. But loving a man like him means walking a knife’s edge between freedom and chaos. As Nova starts dreaming of a way out, Grim's world starts closing in. He says he won’t let her go. She wants to believe him... but can she trust a promise from a man who’s never lived outside the club?

The Wolfsbane Rogues Book 1: Alpha Marius

Michelle Torlot

Marius built his power through grit and ruthless choices. Loyalty is his law, and he always protects his own—or so he tells himself. But the one person he failed still haunts him: Tasha, the girl who went to prison at thirteen to protect him. Now, after five years behind silver bars, Tasha is free… but not forgiven. She’s wolfless, furious, and standing in front of the Alpha who once left her behind. The pack smells blood, the council smells weakness, and Marius can’t decide if he wants to make amends—or claim the fire that’s always burned between them. Power. Passion. Payback. It’s all about to erupt.

Black Moon Pack Book 1: Falling for Storm

Isabel S. Knight

She was pure perfection, and I couldn’t help but utter the words that I had been wanting to say since the day we met. “I love you, Amara. I love you with every fiber of my being. I will serve, protect, and stand by you even through hell. I will both live and die for you.”

Amara’s thrilled for a fresh start at Duke—full scholarship, new city, clean slate. But her plans take a wild turn when she meets Storm, the dangerously magnetic alpha who claims she’s his fated mate. Suddenly, she’s plunged into a world of secrets, power, and supernatural laws she never knew existed. She should run. Instead, she’s pulled deeper. The bond is ancient, the pull undeniable, and Storm? He’d burn the world to protect her. As passion ignites and truths unravel, Amara must decide if she’s ready to step into a destiny she never asked for.

When they discover they are destined mates, their worlds collide. Can they defy centuries of prejudice, or will their bond break before it begins? And when an ancient enemy rises, will they stand together—or fall apart?
