This season, I’ve got a lot to prove…
Terry King may have been born into kitesurfing royalty, but he’s been overlooked and overshadowed his entire life. Unlike his fame-starved father, Trenton ‘King of the Air’ King, or his two attention-grabbing older brothers, Terry doesn’t compete for fame, money, or power. He’s got much more ambitious goals than that.
Terry has his sights set on reuniting his dysfunctional family and finally landing his forever crush: Richie Brown. A six-foot-four, anxiety-riddled, ginger teddy bear who writes heart-melting poetry. Also, the one and only person who’s ever truly seen Terry.
Richie grew up next door to the King brothers in the sleepy coastal town of Airlie Beach, Australia. His childhood was marred by a tragedy that continues to invade every corner of his life twenty years later. Richie gave up on love a long time ago…until something unexpected happened the night of Terry’s victory last season.
Richie knows better than anyone why Terry King is strictly off-limits. They grew up together. They’re practically family. Richie’s seven years older. Terry is his best mate’s younger brother… But then there’s the biggest reason of all. A closely guarded secret Richie’s never revealed to a single soul.
Terry is determined to defend his world title and turn his dreams into reality. But when life throws a spanner into his season, and with the King family remaining as stubbornly dysfunctional as ever––will Terry be able to get Richie to see him as more than just the kid he grew up with?

BLURB:
Luke Lawson is committed to one thing—saving his boarding school before a cash crisis sinks it. He’ll do anything to keep it afloat while vulnerable children rely on him, even if that means accepting help from the man who let him down at uni.
Nathan’s offer to teach for free could be a blessing as long as Luke can guard his soft heart. That’s tough when they’ll need to share living quarters and have a history of hook-ups. But Luke knows being compatible in bed isn’t enough to build trust. It can’t be when Nathan has always left him before morning.
This time around, it feels different. Nathan’s work overseas has changed him, touched him, opened a locked chamber in his heart that Luke is beginning to think must have been bruised in the past too.
As pressure mounts to keep the school open, can Luke trust that Nathan’s committed this time—not only to the school but to a shared future with him long term?

Overseeing the Houston Hub of the Non-human Community comes with challenges I couldn’t have predicted even if I’d bothered looking into my own future. Pixies and gods are dropping all around me, and trying to pin down the person responsible is giving me a headache. When Ryan Reinhardt barrels into my life, I’m too busy and too distracted to give in to his flirting, but Ryan’s not the type to let me ignore him. No matter what else is happening, Ryan can turn every eye toward him–if that’s what he wants.

Can two tormented souls help each other heal from the wounds of the past?
Omegas in the 1800’s are not people; they are property. So when Connor runs away from a cruel and brutal master, he expects a short life of hunger and desperation, followed by a painful death. What he finds instead is refuge on the Calvet estate, and an alpha who seems as tired and broken as Connor himself.
After his discharge from the French army, Sergent Gabriel Calvet is a man adrift. Tormented by the horrors of war and unable to reconcile his own actions with his ideals, he retreats to a quiet estate in the country to attempt to find peace. But even amid the rolling hills and melodious birdsong, his nightmares continue to haunt him, and it seems less and less likely that he’ll ever manage to escape his past.
Connor doesn’t know what to make of Gabriel. He’s never met an alpha like him, who speaks kind words and who listens to Connor like he’s a real person, instead of an object to be used and then tossed aside.
Gabriel is equally confounded by this outspoken runaway, a slave who dares to have opinions of his own and who challenges everything Gabriel ever believed about omegas.
With tensions rising over omegas’ rights and a growing backlash against the repercussions of the war, Gabriel and Connor find themselves at odds with everything society expects them to be. In a world of such turmoil, will either of them ever find a place they can truly call home?
