Some itch under his skin he can’t quite scratch through his work as a paramedic or hobbies or family gatherings or casual hookups alone. Then one day he responds to a 9-1-1 call at an exclusive BDSM club, the Menagerie, and immediately splurges on a membership. He isn’t expecting much… until he meets the notoriously hard-to-please club veteran, Malcolm Savaryn. Mal is a firecracker of a man: Sharp and witty with a take-no-shit attitude, he fascinates Rowan from the start.
Rowan has a big secret he’s afraid to share, and Mal has walls that seem impenetrable. Both men have dark pasts, and mental health struggles have marred them, leaving them wary of relationships. Their chemistry is immediate and unmatched, though, and they quickly enter into a steamy Dom/sub relationship, meeting weekly at the club. It’s just sex, right? But can they keep things strictly sexual, or will one or both of them develop feelings along the way? And if so will they find the courage to admit them and risk their hearts?

Using illegal medius magic, he saves the noble’s life, only to entangle himself in a dangerous game of politics. Now hunted for magic he shouldn’t possess, his only escape is to secretly compete in the mage examinations and prove himself a true vitalian.
But the capital is a den of vipers, and two men stand in his way: Silvius, the secretive fugitive who saved his life and kissed him like a promise, and Quintus, the sharp-tongued merchant who challenges him at every turn.
Both dangerous.

Cael is used to being underestimated. A par-linea healer in a world where magic is only for the elite, he’s fought for every scrap of recognition, and now, he’s finally earned a place in the royal city. But ambition has a price, and when he once again crosses paths with that sharp-tongued merchant who knows too much, their game of wits threatens to turn deadly.
Quin is an enigma, a man who moves through court like a shadow, watching, waiting. His gaze lingers too long, his smirks cut too deep, and when a violent conspiracy unfolds within the palace walls, Cael finds himself ensnared in a battle far bigger than himself. With wyverns wreaking havoc and a high duke tightening his grip, the city is on the verge of collapse. And somehow, Quin is always at the centre of it.
Torn between ambition and survival, Cael must decide who he can trust. But in a world where power is wielded more sharply than magic, trust may be the most dangerous weapon of all.

Thank God Seth is here to save me.
The huge, stern, silent bodyguard has swooped in to rescue me more than once, physically hauling me out of dangerous situations in his strong, muscular arms. He’s swept me off my feet – literally – and I’m falling hard. But he’s also my bodyguard, my employee – the one man I can’t have.
Everyone in the world wants me. Except the man I want.
Seth
I had to hide when I was in the military. Working as a bodyguard has given me more freedom, but there are some lines you don’t cross – like falling for your rich and famous rockstar client.

So why the hell does he want me?

RELEASE DATE: 5/13/2025
BLURB:
When you burn down your contractor’s home… and kind of, accidentally invite him to move into yours.
First things first, that fire was a fluke. A tragic, completely unintentional byproduct of high emotions, an ill-timed backyard grilling… and one very shirtless man.
I only meant to confront Brewer—my maddeningly stoic contractor—about a few small concerns with the renovation of my historic money pit.
Instead, I got distracted by his muscles (who grills shirtless in February, I ask you?), I tripped over my words—and my feet—and… well, my carefully-ordered life went up in flames.
Suddenly, Brewer’s living in my attic, his dainty teacups are in my cabinet, his slobbery dog is all up in my business, and I find myself renovating my whole future just as surely as Brewer’s renovating my home.
Copper County was never my endgame. Once I finish writing my article, I’m off on my next assignment. But between late night conversations, sledgehammer therapy sessions, and solving the Jam Cupboard Mystery (it’s a real thing, I promise), I’m starting to think we’re building something neither of us expected.
Because the more I learn about Brewer, the more I realize I’m not the only misfit in Copper County. And that maybe it’s time I stop chasing other people’s truths… and start writing my own.

Lieutenant Commander Connor Marks is starting over. His kids are grown up. His divorce is final. He’s settled into his new command and a beautiful house in Spain. Nothing left to do but move forward.
And maybe explore his bisexuality after all this time.
Unfortunately, his options are limited. He doesn’t speak enough Spanish to connect with the locals, and getting involved with other service members can get… complicated.
When HM1 Alex Barlow stumbles across a hot guy on a hookup app, of course it’s that gorgeous new physician Alex sees all the time at the hospital. Of course he’s looking to hook up with a guy. Of course he’s exactly Alex’s type.
The only problem is that Connor is an officer while Alex is enlisted. The fraternization regs are crystal clear—they can’t even be friends, never mind hook up.
Never mind be more than hookups.
But the Navy’s regs can’t cool the chemistry sizzling between Alex and Connor.
And nothing—not even their own stubbornness or Alex’s toxic, persistent ex—can stop them from falling in love.

Eli Sobel has never met anyone quite like Laz. He’s smart and handsome in a scruffy way. He’s also a mess. From the first time they meet, it’s clear that Laz needs someone to take care of him, even heal him. And while Eli’s a doctor, he’s not interested in taking on any patients in his personal life. But Laz is funny and generous, and Eli can’t help but get drawn into the investigation surrounding the attack he stitched the man up from.
There’s bad magic afoot, though neither of them quite understands it. From a similar crime at a Minneapolis art gallery to dead bodies in Edina, Minnesota, each step of the inquiry seems to pull the two of them closer together.

Having a crush sucks. Harboring one on your dad’s stuck-up best friend, who is the grumpy Chief Security Officer of the Akiyama Group, is a nightmare.
But hey—I’m Sudo Hex, Japan’s number one genius hacker. He can play hard-to-get all he wants, but I don’t give up easily.
The luxury cruise where billionaires and corrupt politicians are gathering because of their nasty new drug will be my playground, right before we crash their party and stop their evil plans.
Forced proximity? Check.
A mystery we have to solve together? Check.
An opportunity for me to show him how reliable and responsible I am despite our age difference? Check.
Potentially dangerous situations that he has to save me from? Check, check, check.
I’ll make this mission a success, and my reward is walking away with a boyfriend.
ARAN
I should’ve never agreed to take Hex with me on this cruise. My mission is my priority and with the stakes as high as they are, a distraction is the last thing I need.
Especially one as stubborn and charming as him.
As an executive at a mafia organization, failure isn’t an option for me. But my duties aren’t the only thing hanging over my head. Years ago, I made a promise to my best friend who died in the line of duty—no matter what, I would watch over the son he left behind.
I’ve done my best, but the little shit just won’t leave me alone. He’s no longer a kid either, but he still professes his love for me every chance that he gets. I’ve shut him down countless times, yet he never gives up.
It’s annoying, exhausting too. There is no ‘we’ in the picture.
And yet, no matter what crazy things he asks of me, I just can’t find it in me to say no.

When the artist is as much a work of art as his paintings, how am I supposed to resist falling in love?
When I first meet Toby Wheaton, I’m forced to slot the gorgeous artist into the category of unattainable. After all, he lives with his girlfriend, complete with cat. He might not be available, but I admire his work and hire him to do an oil painting of my weekend cottage, the kind of self-indulgent thing I can afford to do as a successful book agent. Besides, I can handle being just friends with a guy I’m intensely attracted to. Easiest thing in the world.
Keeping my distance gets harder once he and the cat move into my cottage on a temporary basis. But just because his cat seems to adore me doesn’t mean her owner does, too. I’m not about to jeopardize our friendship by making a move.
As the seasons change and we get closer, Toby reveals a secret about what he’s been working on in his studio and I have to decide if continuing to live with the man I love is worth him never knowing the truth about how I feel.

Best friends. Teammates. Totally straight… until a kiss changes everything.
Nate (Holky) Holcomb
I’ve always been straight. No confusion, no questions—just a long list of hookups with women and a reputation for being the life of the party. But when Mad Dog moves into my house for a while, things start to get weird. Not in a bad way. Just in a “why do I want to kiss him” kind of way.
We’re teammates. We’re roommates. We’re definitely not boyfriends.
At least, that’s what I keep telling myself.
Chuck (Mad Dog) Madison
Getting called up to the Buffalo Warriors should’ve been the biggest moment of my career. Instead, I’m living in Holky’s guest room and trying not to lose my mind. He’s hot, hilarious, and always in my space—and I can’t stop thinking about him.
Which is extremely confusing. Because I’m straight.
Aren’t I?

Sunne Tanaka died. Not ideal, but he’s had worse Mondays. Then, before he can even figure out his next move, some hot, broody guy shows up. Tyr seems deeply committed to ignoring how awesome he is, but he’s pretty sure they’re soulmates. Or a beautiful disaster waiting to happen. Either way, he’s not leaving the village without him.
But Tyr knows better than anyone—some lines aren’t meant to be crossed. Beyond the dark waters of the River Acheron there is only death, judgment, and the unknown. Still, the choice is simple, if not necessarily easy.
Let Sunne go and lose the only good thing that has ever happened to him. Or risk it all for a chance at fate, love, and a happily ever afterlife.

BLURB:
For the first time in my life, I’m alone.
After a series of setbacks, I’m cutting my losses and moving to Vancouver, B.C., where I can start over—or so I thought. Despite my best efforts to hide, trouble finds me, and my only choice is to run if I want to protect the few loved ones I have left.
It doesn’t help that Sebastian Conner, my best friend’s brother, and Brantley Michaels, my college fling, keep showing up everywhere, even when I try to escape to a secluded cabin in the woods (how cliché, I know).
Being stuck with two hot guys doesn’t sound so bad until you consider the way our undeniable chemistry clashes with our past traumas and the fact that Sebastian and Brantley aren’t exactly best buddies.
When my past catches up to me, the consequences could be explosive, and I’ll have to decide whether I’m living in a romance book or a horror novel.
Everything is about to get really complicated.

Kace is the most beautiful soul I’ve ever met, so gentle and kind, and it hurts. I want him, but I can’t have him. There’s nothing I can offer him, as his Omega. I am useless.

My dearest Alex,
Did you think that it was over? That, when the fire came, all your deepest nightmares came to a head and blew away like smoke on the breeze? Think again, lover.
Remember that I know you like nobody else knows you. I see you in a way that you can’t even see yourself. I am your shadow on the street; I’m the stray light that catches your eye when you turn your head just-so under the glare of the morning sunlight. I’m with you when you eat, sleep, bathe, laugh, or cry. (You need to stop crying, Alex. I’m going to change all that; don’t you worry.)
I wish you could envision the life we’re going to have together. Where I’m taking you, there will be no more city filth or soul-sucking intruders in our love story. You don’t need any of them, my beautiful boy. You don’t need family or friends. Especially not Tom — you definitely don’t need him.
This time around, Alex, I am telling my story. I won’t be misunderstood any longer. If they all understand the pureness of my love and what I was willing to do to make you mine, maybe they would stop vilifying me. I’m not the bad guy, after all. I may have killed, but who wouldn’t end a life to build the life of their dreams with the most perfect angel that God ever created? I may have committed unspeakable violations, but every heinous act I did was to get closer to you. To keep you safe. I would do anything for you. Lie, steal, cheat … I would die a thousand deaths to see you smile.
After all, what’s love without a little pain?
Eternally yours,
X

Most likely. Early forties. Smoking hot. Angry. On a mission to hunt down his brother’s killer. Definitely pushy.

I pack my bags and move back home, where my parents are not what a person could call understanding about my sexuality. I couldn’t imagine what they’d think if they found out I was little.
I luck out, getting a great job at Chained, one that includes a membership, but when they find out who’s signing my paycheck, my parents give me an ultimatum: Quit or Move. Thankfully, one of the people at work lets me know about a house share where all the residents are little.
I’m in a place where I can truly be myself for the first time. Sure, things get a tad awkward when one of the other littles kisses me at Chained one night, but the way the hot daddy in the corner is watching us… I think I might need more of his sweet kisses. A whole lot more.

Behind closed doors at The Scarlet Hotel, anything can happen… even healing a broken spirit.
Being an FBI agent means risking your life to save others, but alpha Peter Brown had never given any thought to what would happen if he survived. After being critically injured on the job, Peter isn’t sure who he is anymore, but he knows his future as a field agent is over. Through surgeries and treatment, the life he used to know fades away, leaving his body weak and scarred—his spirit broken. Now, his doctors are telling him it’s time to get back up, but after living in shadows for so long, he isn’t sure how he will ever find the light.
Omega Casey Winslow knows not to get overly attached to the patients who come to him for physical therapy. This is just a stage of their lives, and soon enough, they always move on. That’s the goal of their treatment, after all. But when Casey first meets Peter, he isn’t sure the man even wants to move on. Peter is haunted by demons, and Casey finds himself getting too invested, not just with his treatment but with the future he believes they might have together.
