London
Of all the guys in the world, I just had to fall hopelessly and irreparably in love with my twin sister’s boyfriend. No amount of parties with happy endings can put him out of my mind.
Gabriel is also a dork, but he’s a hot as all hell dork. Somehow, he’s both a nerd and a jock and he pushes all my buttons. But he’s straight. He shouldn’t attract me the way he does. And did I mention they’ve been dating for two years? Yeah… They’re all but married.
I’m officially the worst brother – and human, let’s not pretend – in the history of ever.
And when my genius of a sister comes up with a bulletproof plan to help me pass my exams by convincing Gabriel to tutor me, I discover that my big, beautiful dork hides a secret even more ruinous than my own. The way he looks at me when we’re alone is almost all I’ve ever dreamed of.
But how many hearts will shatter if I take what I want? Is it not better that I let my love die quietly?
I hate wanting him.
Gabriel
I’m a hot mess and he’s off limits. We are a disaster in the making.
I can’t say no to tutoring London. It would look like I’m hiding something, which I’m totally not. But if I were hiding something, it would not be easy to keep it hidden once the lessons begin and we’re alone.
He crawls under my skin before I know it. He fills my mind with his rosy lips, high cheekbones, and sculped muscles. His male muscles, which I totally don’t like. Except, when I’m alone, letting him into my thoughts is a comfort I desperately need.
The more I’m with him, the more I see I might be dating the wrong twin. But there’s no easy way out of it. There’s no happy ending for anyone here. Unless…
Unless I do what I fear the most and own up to the truth: London is all I ever wanted.

Wade Monroe
My whole life I unapologetically believed in fairy tales and fated mates. I waited – impatiently – for the day my mate would appear and sweep me off my feet. Turns out Fate has a wicked sense of humor. The second my hand brushed his, I knew Finn was my mate… and my stomach turned. I’m unicorns and sunshine. He’s stern scowls and a monotone fashion sense.
Sure, he’s insanely hot. That doesn’t change the fact that we are polar opposites and can’t stand one another. We spent years pointedly ignoring each other, fighting against the magnetic desire that sizzled between us.
Until that one explosive night…
Now, I’m carrying his child and trying to figure out how to co-parent with the man I alternately despise and long for.
Finn Sinclair
I never believed in Fated Mates until the day I met my brother’s newest assistant. The world shifted as I peered into the eyes of a man who reminded me of a thousand, brightly lit firecrackers.
The bratty, gorgeous sub pushed every one of my buttons – as a man, an alpha, and a Dom. We agreed to ignore the pull between us, and that plan worked for years. Until the night we gave in and my world exploded.
He annoyed me to no end, while somehow making my soul feel complete. How can I focus on successfully co-parenting, while lusting after him every second I spend in his presence?

BLURB:
Drake had fucked up. In one of the worst ways he could possibly think. He wanted to be angry at his mate, Arsen but ultimately he knew that it wasn’t Arsen’s fault. It was his fault. He knew that Arsen had HIV and yet he still mated with him. They had been careful, making sure to use protection. But then that one drunken night was all it took.
What Drake didn’t know was that Arsen was still addicted to meth and heroin. Now they had a baby born with not only HIV but addicted to drugs and living in the foster system. Fleeing back to Australia seemed like the right thing to do. Drake thought he could forget everything if he was just back in his home country. He never expected it to hurt so much more when he was surrounded by his brothers, their mates and their children.

BLURB:
My life changed the day I tried to take his.
Mhavenna is a glorious city but, like every city on the face of Serai, it’s run by Dragons. As a human, I’m on the lowest rung of the racial ladder here, as far from an illustrious Dragon as I could be, and I’ve made me peace with that. I don’t like Dragons much, but like or dislike has nothing to do with my work. So when my broker offered me the task of killing the Dragon King, I took it. It was the sort of kill that could make an assassin’s career, and I was certain that I had the skills for it.
I was wrong, nearly dead wrong.
The King caught me before I could finish the job, but instead of killing me, he made me his. I’m now the Dragon King’s assassin. A warning and a weapon. A way for him to bypass his own laws without personally breaking them. But that’s not all. He’s tasked me with guarding him against future attacks. Who better to stop an assassin than another assassin? And who better to find the one who hired us? If only the King didn’t have a body that made me salivate, a face that made my knees weak, and a pair of teal eyes that made me whimper. If only he didn’t stare at me with those stunning eyes as if I could be more than property to him. Maybe then I could do my job, find the person who wants him dead, and save my own life. But I don’t believe in miracles.

For Samir, acting has been reduced to a competition. What used to be fun is now nothing but a fight to win. And all because of him.
Theo is tall, dark and handsome, just like Samir. Ever since acting school, they’ve been competing for roles. Sometimes Samir gets the lead, other times it’s Theo. But this time, when Theo lands the part and Samir is given the supporting role, it’s hard to pretend that their rivalry is friendly.
Seeing Theo daily, his handsome grin and fit body that he likes to rub in Samir’s face, not to mention his cocky personality, are more or less torture. No one has ever been able to get under his skin quite the way that Theo can.
Over the years, teasing Samir has turned out to be Theo’s happy place. The way his eyes glint when he’s angry, the way his jaw clenches, what can Theo say, he’s probably a sadist because it brings him utter joy.
He loves that he has become the other man’s focal point. If not for him, if not for the way they compete with each other, he would have given up on this life a long time ago, but Samir keeps him going.
Will these two leading men be able to put their differences aside and start something new, or will they continue to find each other Intolerable?
