Life is Not a Game

Life is Not a Game

by Kara Verbeek

Charlotte leads a double life. Online, she is Mars: gamer, master strategist, and one of the boys. In real life, she’s too shy to utter a single word. On her team, she’s infallible. At school, she’s a freak. But a cross-country move gives her a chance to reinvent herself—until a fateful collision with her new friend’s gorgeous brother knocks her whole world off course. Will she have the courage to date football jock TJ? Or should she stick to her online love, Tony—even if he thinks she’s a boy?

Kidnapped by My Mate

Kidnapped by My Mate

by Annie Whipple

"I can't think when you touch me," she whispered, fighting the intoxicating pull of his presence.

"You are mine," he said, eyes flashing with primal intensity. "And I am yours. Forever."

The last thing Belle expected on her flight to Paris was to get kidnapped. Grayson was unlike any man she'd ever met--magnetic and devastatingly handsome, his touch sent sparks racing along her skin. But there was something odd about him. The way his men treated him like royalty, his inhuman speed and strength, the way those piercing green eyes would sometimes flash to an unnatural and haunting pure black.

Belle is dragged deeper and deeper into a hidden world full of mystery and danger. Will she be able to escape her captor before she's swallowed whole? Does she even want to?

Learning to Love... Book 1: Shade

by M. L. Knight

Shade Mallory has spent her life cast aside, cursed, and treated as nothing more than a servant in her own pack. Hope feels like a cruel joke—until Alpha Caelan Kendrick opens his Choosing Ceremony to outsiders. Pressured to find a mate, he’s resigned to duty over destiny. But when Shade steps into his world, fate refuses to be ignored. Sparks fly, secrets stir, and a bond neither expected begins to form. Yet, with shadows of the past looming and enemies watching, one question remains—will their connection be their salvation or their downfall?

Broken

by Evelyn Miller

When Lily finds her boyfriend cheating on her the summer before senior year, it's just another broken piece in her already disappointing life. Then she meets Mason, who seems equally as broken for a different reason, but together they make summer their own and set off to complete a bucket list of promises they vow not to break...and maybe some feelings develop along the way. But their summer fling ends in disaster when Lily and Mason realize they're from rival schools, competing in rival teams. Even worse, when a tragic accident puts their priorities into perspective, can Lily and Mason find a way to be together, and will their friends—and the ultra-competitive sports teams—allow them to have the happy ending they dream of...?

The Hybrid Trials Book 1

The Hybrid Trials Book 1

by Jen Cooper

Mackenzie agreed to the trial out of desperation. The $50K was worth the risk—even if the drug could kill her.

The scientists said the pheromone created raw, uncontrollable lust. She’d be sealed in with a stranger for 12 weeks.

She thought she was ready.

Until HE walked in.

The Alpha who left her broken years ago. Who rejected her from the pack for being a hybrid. He was as dangerous as she remembered.

But his eyes had a brand new blaze of heat. “Looks like fate’s got a twisted sense of humor.”

Chasing Kiarra

Chasing Kiarra

by N. K. Corbett

“Move.” His deep, dominant voice sent shivers down my spine.

I tried to ignore the tingling between my legs as the Adonis leaned in, his musky scent invading my nostrils.

“Sorry,” I said. “I’m allergic to douchebag, and you’re bathing in that shit.”

“Big words, human. Only problem is I can smell your arousal a mile away.” He smirked as I blushed.

“Now, move. Before I make you.”

When runaway Kiarra meets mysterious Aidan Gold in a dive bar, she feels an instant connection to the blue-eyed Adonis. But little does she know he’s the alpha of a werewolf pack, and they’re connected by more than lust. In fact, they’re mates. When the truth comes out, will Kiarra finally find home in Aidan’s strong arms? Or will fate destroy everything?

But the road to hell is paved with good intentions, and no sooner does Rebecca lock eyes with Logan than they’re both hopelessly ensnared in each other’s bodies.

Zohra Series Book 1: Karshok

by Nooz Aster

After years of enslavement under alien rule, I’ve forgotten what kindness feels like. That is, until I meet Karshok—a towering, horned alien who is nothing like my past captors. Fierce yet protective, distant yet impossibly gentle, he is a contradiction I can’t resist. I should fear him, and part of me still wants to resist, but in his presence, I find the warmth and care I thought I lost forever. Despite everything, Karshok might be the salvation I never thought I’d find. But what will that salvation cost me?

Hated By My Mate

Hated By My Mate

by Nathalie Hooker

Alpha Wolfgang. He had the body of a god but the soul of the devil.

I should know. I was working at his birthday party the night I sensed my mate.

I was serving guests when suddenly my skin tingled. My heart pounded, and somehow I knew…

My destined mate was here. I turned to search for him. But when our eyes met, my heart stopped.

It was him. Alpha. Fucking. Wolfgang. And he looked furious.

He grabbed my face roughly, hatred in his icy eyes.

“Please, I know you want to reject me,” I trembled. ”Don’t worry. I’ll leave the pack.”

“You’re right,” he said, pressing his firm body against mine. “I don’t want you…”

“...But what makes you think I’ll let you leave me?”
