Ice Cold Alpha

by Michelle Torlot

Alpha Thomas Shadowborne hasn’t stepped into the spotlight since losing his mate—until his pack acquires the Ridgewood Howlers, a scandal-prone hockey team made up of mixed shifters. He’s only supposed to show up for one game. He doesn’t even like hockey. But when a star player knocks Raven Stormwood to the ground, Thomas can’t look away. Raven’s a hybrid—half human, half wolf—and no one has ever claimed her as worth fighting for. Not her father. Not her mate. But Alpha Shadowborne sees something no one else does. And his wolf is done staying silent. Things are about to get complicated... and delicious.

Alpha Kaden

Alpha Kaden

by Midika Crane

He suddenly lurches forward, grabs my arm, and pushes me up against the wall, one hand holding my wrists above my head. The other pushes my hips against the wall.

“Don’t play me, Mara! Not when I’m seriously considering either slitting your throat or ripping your clothes off,” he hisses.

His lips are so close to mine that I feel his breath dance on my skin.

He lets go of me and pushes me into my room.

“Punishment starts tomorrow,” he growls.

Mara is not like others in her pack. She isn’t afraid of the cursed hooded alpha who lurks in the shadows. One night, however, as she sleeps soundlessly in her bed, Alpha Kaden himself kidnaps her. He drags her into a world of secrets and evil, far away from everything she’s ever known. Will Alpha Kaden turn Mara into a monster just like him? Or will she help him find the light once more?

“If you wanted me on top of you, all you had to do was ask.”

When fate forces a rogue and alpha together, will they be able to set aside their differences and give love a chance?

What starts as a magical mishap turns into a battle of wits, willpower, and wicked temptation—because this demon isn’t just trouble, he’s trouble she can’t stop thinking about.

Home-Wrecking Alpha

Home-Wrecking Alpha

by B. D. Vyne

“What are you doing in my forest?” he asked, glaring into the car.

My husband opened his mouth, but the man snarled at him. “Not you. Her…”

“We’re lost,” I admitted, locking eyes with the man.

For some reason, once I started looking at him, I couldn’t look away.

He leaned forward, his nostrils flaring as he inhaled my perfume. Then his eyes flashed suddenly gold.

“On the contrary, human. You’ve just been found.”

When Brooke and her sick husband stumble across a desolate forest town on a road trip, she feels strangely drawn to its leader, Slate. But Slate has a secret: He is a werewolf and her long-lost mate. Will Brooke choose loyalty to her husband, or will she fall for the home-wrecking alpha?

The Last Bloodline 1: Beta Xavier Costa

The Last Bloodline 1: Beta Xavier Costa

by Amina Hazim

“What is this?” Eleanor whispered, her voice trembling as she gazed up at Xavier, her eyes glistening with unshed tears.

“Can’t you see? It’s a mating contract agreement,” Xavier replied, his tone devoid of warmth as he looked at her—the woman destined to share his life. Eleanor felt a wave of anxiety wash over her, as if the walls were closing in, amplifying the weight of the moment.

Eleanor never expected to be bound by a six-month mating contract, especially not with Xavier, a man she’s only just met. After losing her mother, she’d held on to the hope that love would find her again, but now she’s facing a forced union with a man whose past is shrouded in mystery and pain. The contract is meant to be temporary, but as Eleanor and Xavier are thrust together, the walls between them grow, and the intensity of their bond is tested. Will they learn to love each other, or will the weight of secrets and unresolved trauma tear them apart?
