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.

Vicky swore she’d never let anyone claim her again, yet these men make her question everything she ran from. Between laughter, longing, and late-night confessions, she might just find what freedom really means… and who she wants to share it with.

Bad Business

Bad Business

Elise Faber

I was a single dad. I didn’t have time for love.

When I found out I had a son, my life changed for the better. My kid was great. My heart, though, was not. It had been trampled, kicked around, and shredded just for good measure. Obviously, after all that, I wasn’t looking for love.

But then…came Maddie.

She was an integral part of my brother’s company—it would be bad business to start something with her.

Only, she was smart and funny and capable and…my heart didn’t feel like it was in pieces when I was with her.

It felt whole. It felt like it had always been hers. It felt like…I needed to keep her forever.
