Life is Not a Game

Life is Not a Game

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?

Two Years Gone

Two Years Gone

Kelsie Tate

Ella Matthews is a lowly omega in the Green Ridge Pack. Treated more like a servant than a person, she has always been taught one thing: you are nothing. And it was confirmed when her mate rejected her. Two years later, he returned to the pack a different person. But can she get over the past and the pain to have a second chance?

My Sister's Wedding

C. Qualls

When Carly starts her new job, she finds herself very attracted to a cute coworker but also drawn to a mystery man that she meets at her company’s masquerade ball.

Yes, Mr Knight

Yes, Mr Knight

Natalie Roche

“You’ve been a good girl all your life, Jamie.”

My heart was pounding, and he had me totally lost for words.

“Why don’t you do yourself a favor and allow the Bad Girl to come out and play? I will pleasure her like she’s never been pleasured before.”

Mason Knight. A billionaire heartthrob with looks that make women stop and stare as he walks by. Jamie had always told herself she’d never be one of “those” women who fell for her boss. But then, she’d never had someone like Mason set his sights on her…

Alpha's Unwilling Mate

Alpha's Unwilling Mate

Elle Chipp

Emma is the daughter of a beta and head of the kitchens in the Silver Dawn Pack. She’s been hoping for five years that she will meet her mate, but when she finally does, he is not what she expected. Orion is the notorious alpha of the Blood Moon Pack, known for taking over packs with a wave of his hand, his brutal temper, and a complete lack of mercy. He takes whatever he wants, and Emma is no exception. But to his surprise, Emma tries to reject him. Infuriated by her audacity, Orion gives her a choice: either Emma joins his pack as his mate or he takes over the Silver Dawn pack—by force.

Sweet Temptation

Sweet Temptation

Merra Gischan

This stunning woman with her mesmerizing eyes. She’s lucky her friend arrived, or else I might have taken her straight to bed, making her moan and plead. A not so gentle reminder for her to lock her door, especially when she is planning on baking barely dressed.

Without a doubt, she's what I'd desirably refer to as my sweet temptation.

The Outcasts 1: The Roommate

The Outcasts 1: The Roommate

Ruth Robinson

When Sam posted an advert for a roommate he was hoping at best he'd find someone who would pay half the rent and occasionally wash the dishes. He didn't count on the bubbly ball of cheery energy which was Elizabeth, inserting herself into his life as well as his house. The unlikely friendship which arises will change them both.

Broken Spin-Off: Skating on Scars

Broken Spin-Off: Skating on Scars

Evelyn Miller

College student Tayla is mortified when her new roommate turns out to be Benji—the hot hockey player she impulsively kissed months ago while on a break from her boyfriend. Sharing a space means awkward house rules, unresolved attraction, and feelings that refuse to stay buried. Benji is charming, tempting, and everything she never planned for, while her boyfriend represents the safe, sensible future she’s been building toward. As sparks fly and boundaries blur, Tayla must decide whether to choose the relationship that looks right on paper, or the one that makes her heart flutter.

Practice, Not Perfect

Practice, Not Perfect

Jane Anne

Kate’s got two weeks to fake being a hockey superfan—and she’s already skating on thin ice. When her harmless crush on star player Grady spirals into a big, fat lie, she turns to his rival, the grumpy and irresistible Carver Reed, for help. Their deal? Pretend to date and save his rep while she learns the rules of the game. Easy… right? But between late-night practices, sharp banter, and one too many “accidental” touches, the line between fake and real starts to blur fast. With secrets, sparks, and power plays flying, Kate’s about to learn that the hardest part of hockey isn’t the ice—it’s keeping her heart from slipping.

Last to Fall

Last to Fall

B. Shock

Elite political activist Alita is falsely accused and ejected from her space station onto an alien planet. Full of bloodthirsty monsters, hostile natives, and even aggressive plants, this planet is worse than a death sentence. When Alita faces off with a cannibal, a tall, dark native unexpectedly saves her life. But the last thing he wants is a small, pathetic human he can’t understand following him around!

Age Rating: 18+ (Assault, Attempted Rape, Domestic Violence, Extreme Violence/Gore, Violent Death, Xenophobia)

The Hybrid Trials Book 1

The Hybrid Trials Book 1

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.”

Fighting for Freedom

Fighting for Freedom

Evelyn Miller

Kenzie Scott’s world is already falling apart—her parents are divorcing, and nothing feels steady anymore. The last thing she expects is to get tangled up with Clay Helms, the school’s most notorious bad boy. He’s an underground fighter with a bruised soul and a short fuse. When Kenzie stands up to him, something shifts. And when she shows up at one of his fights, everything changes. As their bond deepens, both are forced to face the pain they’ve buried. But love doesn’t fix everything. Sometimes, it just gives you a reason to fight harder.

Keily

Keily

Manjari

Her: The fat girl nervously starting her senior year at a new school.

Him: The brooding football jock who takes the seat next to her.

He notices her checking him out and leans in. She can feel his warmth against her. He places a finger under her chin, turning her to stare into his gorgeous eyes.

“What are you looking at, Piggy?”

Reed's Sex Academy

Reed's Sex Academy

Rhea Harp

Why do I want this job? Because my sister is in foster care. Because I’m broke and can’t find a decent-paying job. And because I’m seriously on the verge of a breakdown if things don’t start looking up soon.

Mr. Reed opens my eyes, and my body, to the unspoken world of the Academy. I’m powerless to deny him anything. He owns me, and he knows it.

But someone else knows. Someone determined to take both of us down.

Will I survive long enough to get out with my heart intact?
