My Second Chance Book 1

My Second Chance Book 1

Summer Mathewson

"I'll be out in a minute!" Not the welcome Daisy expected from the naked, tattooed stranger in HER new shower. 🚿

She's just fled an engagement that came with a side of forced pregnancy and a mother-in-law from hell, and she's starting over in Montana with a residency offer and a U-Haul's worth of trust issues. Then there's Axle: gorgeous, growly, bossy, and looking at her like she's already his.

Daisy just escaped one man who thought he owned her. She is not falling for another. But Axle isn't like Carter. He actually pays attention. And when her ex walks into the same diner, Axle just watches. Waiting.

Amber Westbrook

Marnie is running for her life, desperate to escape an abusive marriage and protect her young daughter. With nowhere else to turn, they flee to a small town in hopes of starting over. What she doesn’t expect is a community of rugged cowboys who serve as First Responders—or Will, a man stretched thin trying to save his family’s farm. When Will finds Marnie one night, frightened and guarded, his instinct to protect kicks in fast and hard. Drawn to her strength and vulnerability, he becomes determined to keep her safe, even as she struggles to trust again. As danger lingers and emotions deepen, Will must decide if he can break through her walls—and if Marnie can believe in safety, love, and a future she never thought possible.

In a world that insists they stay apart, something tender begins to spark. But can a prince truly fall for the maid who was never meant to be seen?

Redefining Love Series Book 1: Lost in Love

Declan Rayne

Vienna trusts facts, formulas, and control—the kind you can measure. Dominic Blackwood is the variable she never planned for: powerful, patient, and persistent in a way that feels dangerous.

What starts as a spark ignites fast. Vienna resists with logic and caution. Dominic doesn’t force his way in—he earns it, inch by inch, until her walls start to cave.

Then one moment shatters everything.

And when Vienna’s world turns dark and the consequences get real, Dominic doesn’t disappear. He stays. He fights. He proves he doesn’t want a win.

He wants her.

Five Rounds

Five Rounds

A. Duncan

Colby lives for the fight. Training, titles, and discipline fill every hour, and emotions stay locked behind solid walls. Love is a distraction he cannot afford. Then a snowstorm delivers Landry back into his life, desperate, shaken, and needing protection. She runs from something she refuses to name, trusting the one man she believes will not turn her away. Old friendship sparks under the surface, heated and familiar. As they share space and silence, tension builds between fear and longing. Colby can guard her body, but guarding his heart is another battle entirely. Can a fighter built for control handle feelings that refuse to stay down?

At the Edge of Desire

At the Edge of Desire

Ellie Sanders

Part of the Jewel in the Crown Universe

I am a rare thing. A dangerously rare thing. In a world where kings and warlords have the power to meld the air around them, I alone have the power to seduce, to beguile, to drive men incandescently mad with lust. My species has been hunted, used, and mistreated for so long that no one believes we still exist. And yet I do. When my home is destroyed, I am sold at auction as a spoil of war. No one knows what I am, what my true nature is, and I must do everything in my power to hide it. To conceal it. To keep it from them. Only my secret gets exposed, and the entire world discovers what I am. And now I am caught up in a battle of wills between a sadistic warlord and a king, who might, if I dare to hope, just be my salvation.

Alpha Loren

Elle A.H.

“You appear to be in my territory, little wolf.” He is exceedingly beautiful, but his expression chills me to the core.

“You’re coming home with me.” His eyes so mesmerizing, so powerful. He pulls me into him, pinning me against his chest, an arm tight around my throat.

“You will submit and obey or there will be punishments,” he says, kissing the side of my head. His scent reeks of power. “Who am I, little one? Say it,” he commands. His lips curl into a smile, confirming my fears. “That’s right,” he growls. “I am Alpha Loren.”

The Half Blood

The Half Blood

Laura B.L.

Two shadowy figures walked toward each other, their gazes locked. With every step they took, they became more clear, the orange light flickering off of their almost-naked bodies. From where I stood, only their faces remained hidden.

The second they touched, my body lit up. As the man’s hands circled the woman’s hips, I felt his fingers dig into my own body. As he kissed her neck, I felt his lips against my skin, all the way down to my collarbone and back up to my ear lobe. His face was buried in her neck, hers was visible now. She had the very same blue eyes I had been looking at in the mirror my whole life. The woman in the vision was me…

When Nala, a half-witch half-werewolf hybrid, visits the Royal Lycan Realm, the last thing she expects to do is take part in the annual Hunt, an ancient mating ritual cherished by the Lycan King himself. Now she’s running through the forest, and King Alaric is gaining on her. Will she keep running forever? Or will she let him catch her and become his Queen?

Jeay S Raven

Jade: I’m an omega, the lowest ranked member of the werewolf community. I’ve learned to keep my head down and stay out of the way, beaten and broken by life. I’m as plain and bland as they come, with nothing to set me apart from the rest. I don’t dream of finding my mate. Real life is nothing like a fairytale after all. All I want to do now is keep away from dominant males. But then he comes, shattering all my walls.

Alaric: There’s an ache that gnaws at me and nothing can ever numb it. My father sent me on this tour of diplomacy in hopes that it would temper my hotheaded ways and perhaps lead me to my destined mate, who would soften my heart. But I’m the Bloody Alpha, feared and respected by all, and no one can change me. That is, until I meet her.

The Alpha's Chimera Mate

Cosmic Chaos

All great stories are made great because they contain great characters who face great conflict. I often find myself wondering if that’s what my story is meant to be.
