When one of my delivery employees doesn’t show up for work, I decide to make the delivery myself. The alpha jackal opens the door, and I proceed to trip over a board on his porch and spill the food all over him.
Covered in chicken and hummus, he chuckles and smiles and invites me out to dinner. Dinner? After what I just did?
He’s the sexiest jackal I’ve ever met and fifteen years is not that big a difference. But how can an omega who’s been hurt before take a chance again?

Now he’s back.
People say love is like a wildfire, unpredictable and all consuming. But the love I’ve had for my best friend has always been comfortable and warm.
Phoenix McKean was the spark that made my childhood magical. He’s unafraid and wild, the opposite of me in every way. He stole my heart before I even knew what that meant.
For a brief moment I was wrapped in his arms, my happily ever after secure.
But the car crash that took my mother from me changed everything. I was the only survivor and when my grief began to spiral out of control, I pushed Phoenix away before he could see how damaged I was.
A fire like his couldn’t be contained. He was better off without me and my broken mind.
Just when I finally feel like I’ve moved on, he strolls back into town, successful and sought after by all. I shouldn’t feel jealous, but I can’t help it because, as much as I know I shouldn’t be, I’m still in love with him.
He deserves better than me. He deserves a life full of happiness and joy, not one full of pills, panic attacks, and shrinks. Besides, this wild man will never settle down….and especially not with someone like me.
But when he learns what I’ve become, I have no choice but to confess why I’ve hidden it from him all these years. If I don’t, I might lose him forever, and the only thing scarier than watching him leave… would be asking him to stay.

ules exist for a reason, but when I meet the vampire of my dreams, all I want to do is break them.
Geordi
Five years ago, humans found out in the most violent way possible that vampires do in fact exist. After the uprising, the two sides settled on three rules to keep both groups safe — vampires can’t use compulsion, humans can’t hunt them, and absolutely no romance between the two groups. I lost a lot, but I found my purpose— researching what makes vampires different from mortals to help us coexist peacefully.
I like following rules and things were fine until I went rogue, testing a vaccine to create an impenetrable shield against compulsion. I needed a vampire to work with me, so I chose Elias Caswell, the powerful and only slightly terrifying centuries-old vampire who’s played a starring role in my fantasy life for ages.
Elias is a hedonist, and as he introduces me to his world, he quickly unravels my carefully constructed plans. When the vaccine is stolen and the city descends into chaos, my life is in danger, and I’m forced to face a traumatic secret of my own.
I need to find an antidote, restore the peace, and with Elias convinced I’m his consort, try to resist a bond that’s thicker than blood. Should be easy.
Right, and Vlad the Impaler just wanted to cuddle.

Saber just graduated from college with an engineering degree and is ready to build something amazing. As one of the only guys in his college who lactated, he was popular with all and had his pick of guys to choose from. But he isn’t looking for a bro. He’s looking for a boy.
Frederick takes his job seriously, even if it’s the lowest seller on the company’s product roadmap. It’ll be discontinued eventually, but until then, he’s doing his best to put out the best product possible. When he’s forced to hire some hot shot college grad to handle the next software update, he has zero confidence that it’ll go well. Mostly because the guy is obnoxiously arrogant and seems to think he’s the world’s gift to mankind.
Granted, he is pretty to look at. And tall. And ridiculously charming when he’s not trying to boss his boss around. Frederick doesn’t usually notice those traits about people. Growing up in the LDS church turned him off from anything romantic, pleasurable, or remotely affectionate. Now that he’s pushing 30, he’s pretty sure he’ll die as celebate as the day he was born. But all that changes when Saber picks up on something about Frederick that not even he realized was waiting dormant inside him.

Keeping my hands off of Milo is hard enough thanks to his lickable dimple, flirty smiles, and virgin skin. But I swear this has to be a test. Why else would Hero insist that his son come to live with me? And why is it so hard for Milo to just keep his clothes on already?
If I can’t keep my hands off of him I could lose my friends, our club, even the tattoo shop I love more than anything. Given the stakes, it should be easy.
Right, and a Prince Albert just pinches a little…

Melis, the fledgling God of Desire in All Its Forms, is of course aware of the famously beautiful and famously unwed King Antero. Though the human king has been approached by many suitors, all have been intimidated by the strength of his remarkable heart. The lonely Antero has been praying for a companion, a friend who will stay by his side if he is not meant to find the other half of his soul. For years, he has been making those prayers to Melis.
Known by many names including Melis the Prankster and Melis the Cruel, Melis is blamed by humans and gods alike if he answers their wishes—and if he doesn’t—and almost never thanked for the stories that turn out well. He has listened to Antero’s yearning without responding, secretly pleased to have the noble king’s devotion for himself, but mostly convinced there is no one on earth who could ever be Antero’s equal.
But when some of the elder gods insist Melis would serve the world better if he knew anything of desires for himself, the little God of Desire decides to visit the private chambers of the king and finally respond to his most faithful servant—only to find himself wanting to answer the king’s wish in a more personal way than he’d anticipated. Melis might be divine, but one clever human king is more than a match for him, especially once Antero decides it’s time for Desire to learn something of Love.

Elliot Stoll, an ambitious pilot, with a ship equipped with a hyperspace Tangle drive, is assigned to secure the derelict Iredoi, only to find salvager Kass Tyczkowski has reached it first. Arguments about authority and legitimate salvage are interrupted by an attack by rival salvagers, which ends with Kass rescuing Elliot from his destroyed ship, and jumping away with the Iredoi in tow, back to his home base — the Tumble.
Elliot soon learns he’s landed in the middle of a family feud, but now the stakes are higher than the salvage value of an old derelict. A flotilla of pirate ships is heading for the Tumble to snatch the Iredoi, and whatever secrets it holds about the deadly virus that wiped out its crew.
Kass’s mother Dominika, the boss of the salvage company and the station, assigns Kass to guard Elliot, telling him if he’s going to bring strays home, he has to take care of them. Even if it means the stray has to sleep in his quarters. Despite the stark differences between the button-down and disciplined Elliot and the scofflaw, hedonistic Kass, they make a good team as they prepare for a battle, explore the derelict Iredoi, and then give in to the intense attraction they’ve come to feel for each other.
After exploring the Iredoi, Elliot becomes determined to destroy it to keep it from being taken by the pirates. But Kass has his orders too, and Elliot knows his work is cut out for him if he wants to persuade Kass to defy his mother and help Elliot to do the right thing.

Over the last year, Leif Becken has gone from being a lonesome bartender living in the cheapest studio apartment he could find, to moving in with his two fantastic and loving boyfriends—best pupper Tucker, and romance bear Rahul. Along the way, he’s discovered how to harness his inborn spiritmancer powers, learned to craft a collection of enchanted potions, and made himself indispensable as a magical consultant for a problem-solving agency.
Oh, sure, there’s been some challenges along the way, like learning how to make a polyamorous relationship work, how to clean muddy paw prints out of silk vests, and the dismay of finding out that he’s now spoiled to minute microwave dinners, but since nobody is currently possessed, kidnapped, hospitalized, or heart-broken, he’s hopeful that things should finally be settling down.
Unfortunately, it seems that Leif has drawn the attention of the same noble sorceress who’s instigated multiple disasters recently in Minnesota. Even with his newfound powers and backed by the efforts of the local Department of Mythic Affairs—not to mention the personal attentions of his overprotective shifter and djinn boyfriends—Leif might not be safe from her machinations. The only saving grace is that the sorceress seems to want something from him, and probably won’t turn him into a fancy doorstop, at least not until he’s done her the favor… which he’ll get right on, as soon as he figures out what it is.
