Second Chance

Second Chance

M. Syrah

"You want to be my Luna and bear my pups? We'll see if you have what it takes." I growled low facing a very naked and determined Alison. She seemed to have made up her mind and she looked as fierce in my bedroom as she looked on the battlefield. Could her wolf make mine surrender? We were about to find out.

Alison, a fierce warrior who’s survived deep loss, has set her sights on becoming Luna of her pack, a role she’s determined to claim beside the elusive Alpha Sean. Scarred by the mysterious death of his own mate, Sean has spent years avoiding entanglements, but Alison’s strength and loyalty have begun to crack his defenses. Under the Blood Moon’s primal call, they’re both pushed to confront their deepest instincts and desires. As Alison’s unyielding passion collides with Sean’s guarded resolve, their struggle becomes as intense as any battle, and only one will emerge victorious in this test of heart and dominance.

In the harsh wilds of the North, one captive and one cursed warrior discover that surrender can take many forms… and not all of them end in chains.

Beloved in the Realms 1: My Demon, My Love

M. L. Knight

"This was a demon whose eyes had seen the wasteful horrors of war; he had been to the depths of hell and lived to tell the tale. Now it was love that was ripping him to pieces. Love was the thing that was destroying his very being."

Reve, a demon prince with battle-scarred eyes, has faced the darkest corners of hell without flinching—yet nothing has ever unraveled him like Azlyn. She’s human, bound to him by chains she never chose, and she’s far too brave for her own good. Sparks flare, tempting them both into dangerous territory neither dares name. The more they fight it, the more the heat rises, until every glance threatens to ignite a blaze they can’t control. But their world is built to keep them apart, and the price for defying it could be ruin. In a realm ruled by fear and desire, can a love like theirs burn bright enough to survive? Or will it be the fire that destroys them both?

Eliza Vasquez

Lily Summers thought leaving her pack meant freedom, but fate has other plans. A single vampire attack shatters her quiet life, thrusting her into danger she can’t ignore. And then there’s Adrian Ryker—insufferable, arrogant, and utterly impossible to resist. He’s everything she’s determined to avoid, yet the pull between them is magnetic, unavoidable. As danger looms and desire simmers, Lily must decide whether she can trust the man she wants to hate—or if letting him in will turn her heart of stone into something unbreakable.

Misty, forced to leave behind the pack she loves, is struggling to find her place in a world that feels nothing like home. Then she meets Lloyd—dark, brooding, and infuriatingly convinced she’s a threat. He wants nothing to do with her, but fate has other plans. As secrets unravel and magic stirs, their worlds collide in ways neither of them expects. Breaking the curse might cost them everything—if they can survive long enough to try.

On the planet Kepler, Princess Lyra stands at the edge of her destiny—and wants nothing to do with it. As one of the last Evols in the galaxy, she’s bound by ancient tradition to wed a king her father selects. Unfortunately for her stubborn streak, that king is Reiks: towering warlord of Valvor, feared by worlds, admired by none for his patience. He craves a bride who is strong, beautiful, and obedient. Lyra is two out of three… and proudly defiant about the last. What follows is a battle of wills so charged it could set galaxies ablaze, where every glance feels like a dare, and every touch threatens to rewrite the rules neither of them planned to break.

Wren has spent her entire life being treated like a monster.

Shunned for the magic flowing through her blood, she has grown up alone, unwanted, and blamed for things beyond her control. After fleeing the orphanage that treated her like a freak, Wren survives for years on scraps, wandering from place to place with nowhere to call home.

Then her luck finally runs out.

While being hunted through a dark forest by a feral monster, Wren stumbles into a hidden trap and falls into the web of an Arachne.

He is intelligent. Cunning. Deadly.

And for reasons Wren cannot understand, he refuses to let her leave.

Trapped within his underground lair, Wren expects to become nothing more than another meal. But as the days pass, she begins to see a side of the creature she never expected. Beneath his frightening appearance lies someone who is strangely curious about her, protects her from the dangers lurking within his territory, and seems determined to understand the lonely witch who fell into his web.

The longer Wren remains trapped in his world, the more she begins to question everything she thought she knew about monsters—and herself.

The creature she once feared would someday eat her may become the only person capable of understanding who she truly is.
