Mad Dogs and Englishmen

Mad Dogs and Englishmen

by Andreona C Garlid

Every maiden in the realm is summoned to a grand estate for a fortnight of glittering revels, where a titled man—rich, reclusive, and rumored to be mad—must choose a bride. Whispers of strange deaths swirl through candlelit halls, but the promise of power, passion, and danger keeps hearts racing. Beneath the silk and smiles, everyone hides something. As the games of charm and deception unfold, one question burns brighter than the chandeliers: who will survive the Lord’s choice—and what will it cost to win his hand?

When Blaise gets a mysterious letter welcoming her to the Black Sun Academy, she has no idea she’s stepping into a world of magic, danger, and secrets her parents never told her. Suddenly, she’s surrounded by charmers with trouble written all over them—two magnetic twin brothers, a sinfully gorgeous vampire who shouldn’t even be alive, and one dangerously tempting professor. But when Blaise learns her parents may be tied to the tragedy that destroyed the vampire’s family, the truth becomes far more personal—and far more dangerous. Between whispered spells and forbidden glances, she’ll have to decide who to trust before the past consumes them all.

Manesto Nights

by S. L. Adams

Vicky bolts from her wedding in full escape mode—veil, nerves, and all—only to end up trapped inside a department store with four complete strangers. Outside, toxic smoke clouds Alaska’s skies, but inside, the air is charged with something entirely different. As days stretch into nights, tension and attraction tangle in the aisles of camping gear and power tools.

Shades of Fire

Shades of Fire

by 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?

Harvest Flower

Harvest Flower

by Chavon Powell

"I didn't want to marry you. I was forced into this. Don't expect much from me I am not skilled in wifely duties." Harvest Flower talked more to the horse than to Running Wolf, but her point was clear.

Harvest Flower arrives at her new home—a village completely unknown to her—carrying a past full of loss and a future she never chose. She is determined to stand tall, even when every stare reminds her she is an outsider. Running Wolf welcomes her with steady patience and quiet fire, certain she is the woman he has waited for since the day he first saw her beneath the waterfall. She isn’t ready to trust easily, and he refuses to rush what could grow between them. As danger circles and doubts whisper, she fights to find her place, while he fights to prove she is already home.

As they journey together, Riyah’s quiet courage challenges Talon’s rage, and his stubborn loyalty gives her a place to finally belong. With danger circling and their curses tightening, they must discover whether two broken fates can shape a future worth fighting for.

Lily is a mermaid who fears the ocean—and for good reason. Haunted by a childhood tragedy and a dream that’s gone from soothing to sinister, she’s avoided the sea for years. But when a mysterious pull draws her back to the water, she discovers her mate is no savior—he’s an Erebos, a bloodthirsty predator feared by all merfolk. He’s dangerous, forbidden, and tied to the very darkness that could destroy her. As their connection deepens, Lily must choose: run from her fate, or face the creature who may either save her…or consume her. One thing's certain—love shouldn’t taste this deadly.
