In this den of vipers and vultures, can I trust the emperor I was sent to kill or is he using me to destroy all I love?
I abandoned my destiny in favor of a new goal: working with Emperor Tallu to take down the Southern Imperium. Only things are not so easy when we’re faced with the imperial generals who brought the continent to its knees.
If my mother knew what I was doing, her rage would melt the Silver City, but I have no choice as Tallu and I pursue a powerful weapon that could end any opposition to the Imperium.
Why does it matter if I’m finding myself all too attracted to a husband I can’t trust, whose secrets multiply the closer he lets me get?

BLURB:
Reign
My life was impossibly normal. Living by honest means, working a regular job, and being a fumbling and awkward teenager were just the norm.
Until Mama remarried. Being thrown into a world so different from mine is jarring. The parties, the people, the wealth-
And my stepbrother.
Santiago is everything I’m not. He’s carved from stone— a god amongst mortals-with an intelligence and elegance that I’ll never possess, and I can’t help but wonder who he is behind his cruel but apathetic facade.
What started as nothing turned into everything. What was only an infatuation turned into an obsession.
Because I didn’t understand what it would mean to be his.

BJ lost his crayons and found his new daddy.
I collect crayons. Not just any crayons, either. I collect retired colors, violet-blue being my favorite. They remind me of myself—once loved and cherished and now long forgotten. Only I refuse to let them be, either. Instead, I dig through every yard sale and thrift store box of random colors, hoping to find one.
Moving into my new apartment is stressful enough without discovering a box is missing, the one containing my prized collection. I call the moving company, my old landlord, and my new building manager. None of them have seen it. They are gone. As a last-ditch effort, I post on the local community social media pages in the hopes that someone has seen it.
When someone replies they have, it’s all I can do not to say, “Thank you, Daddy.”

He may have decided to trust Aries with his body, but he still isn’t certain he can trust the faerie prince with his heart. The only way to survive the treacherous journey ahead is to rely on the one person who has already abandoned him once before. The longer they spend together, the more Rory realizes how little he truly knows about that fateful day in the past.
Aries and Rory may believe they are escaping only the wrath of a vengeful queen, but behind them, the sidhe court is overflowing with malcontent and malice. The Queen’s mind is fracturing, the May-tree is dying, and every moment spins them closer to disaster. If Faerie falls, Aries and Rory will fall with her.

It’s been five years since Colton Maxwell left Sebastian behind to go on a quick adventure. He was a treasure hunter back then, before the big accident that injured his leg and left him in the hospital for months. And before he found out that Sebastian never wanted to talk to him again…
Tarot reader Sebastian Belle couldn’t believe it when Colton left for a job and then never came back. And it got even worse when he found out he was pregnant, and Colton’s family tried to pay him off to never contact them again. Heartbroken, he tucked that stupid check away as a reminder that he was alone in having and raising his baby girl, Abby.
Which is fine, until Colton and his ghost hunting TV show end up in Sebastian’s haunted mining town house, disrupting his whole life. Then Sebastian and Colton have to separate the truth from the lies, figure out why the ghosts are suddenly so darn active in Sebastian’s house, and get to know each other all over again. All the while dealing with Colton’s family, a huge crew of well-meaning friends, and the echoes of a century-old murder. Can they make it all work, or is their treasured relationship lost forever?

RELEASE DATE: 6/24/2025
BLURB:
A healer who masks his identity. A king held captive. A game of power, deception, and undeniable longing.
Cael has always walked the thin line between healer and outlaw, but when he learns Quin, the true king of Lumin, has been captured, he risks everything to reach him. Disguised as “Haldr,” Cael infiltrates Iskeldir’s court, tending to Quin’s wounds while keeping his own identity buried. Each stolen moment between them is a battle of sharp words, lingering touches, and the ever-present danger of discovery.
But Quin’s freedom comes at a cost. To secure his release, Cael must do the impossible: win the Medicus Contest, a ruthless competition designed to prove Lumin’s superiority in healing magic. With only alchemy and wit, Cael must outmatch spell-wielding rivals, outmanoeuvre those who would see him fail, and outlast the unseen forces working against him. When the final trial demands he enter the callous regent’s memoryscape, Cael faces an impossible choice: risk his soul to save those trapped inside or lose everything. Including Quin.
In a world where healing is power and love is a battlefield, how far will Cael go to protect the man he can never have?

BLURB:
The mask is finally coming off. But some truths are more dangerous than lies.
Cael never expected to fall into Quin’s memories. Never expected to uncover the moments Quin kept hidden: his quiet observations, his reluctant admiration, the silent war he waged against his own heart. And at the centre of it all? A truth that shatters everything Cael thought he knew.
But the past is a trap. And while Cael is lost in Quin’s memories, the war still looms.
Reality drags him back. To Ragnarson. To a battlefield where Quin stands before him, not as a ghost of the past, but flesh and blood. Real and untouchable. Their reunion burns brief and bright before duty rips them apart once more.
As the kingdom teeters on collapse, rebellion ignites. The war isn’t just for a throne anymore—it’s for survival. And when Cael is captured, Quin will stop at nothing to bring him back.
Because kings do not beg.
This healer does not bow.
And masks cannot hide the truth forever.

The world has thrown me a lot of challenges over the years, but I’ve always tried to stay positive. Life’s too short to dwell on the negative. Unfortunately, my situation just took a very complex turn: I’m raising my little brother alone right now, but I’ve got to keep that a secret. If anyone finds out, I risk losing Lou.
My secret gets tough to keep when two international celebrities show up in our small town and start paying me all kinds of attention. I’ve got zero dating experience and plenty of reasons to stay away from them both, but keeping my distance isn’t going to be easy. First there’s Colin, the quiet and brooding former race car driver who seems uninterested in everyone and everything…except me. And then there’s Tom, the charming movie star, who flirts with me like it’s his job. Oh, and did I mention the two of them are best friends? Or that I think Tom might have some very deeply hidden feelings for Colin?

BLURB:
Punished for his secret, a Formula One driver races for redemption—until he falls for his devastatingly attractive team principal.
Wyatt West had it all: a championship-contending seat with his father’s Formula One team, the West Racing legacy in his blood, and a future mapped out in silver and blue. Until Cash West caught him kissing another driver and cast him out without a second thought.
Sixteen months later, Wyatt gets his shot at revenge when Paolo Rossi—his father’s oldest rival—offers him a lifeline. The scarlet and gold of Rossi Performance represents more than just a new team. It’s his chance to prove that talent trumps bloodline, that he can win without the West name.
But Wyatt didn’t count on Sergio García.
The enigmatic Spanish team principal is everything Wyatt’s father isn’t—brilliant, controlled, and devastatingly attractive. As victories mount from Monaco to Barcelona and championship hopes soar, the professional chemistry between them ignites into something far more dangerous. Stolen moments in engineering offices, heated confrontations on Mediterranean balconies, and whispered confessions under city lights blur every line Wyatt swore he’d never cross again.
In a sport where image is everything and secrets are weapons, loving Sergio could destroy them both. When Wyatt’s private struggles are weaponized against him and family loyalty becomes a blood sport, he must choose to play it safe and lose himself, or risk everything for a love that could end his career forever.
Some races are won with courage. Others with heart.

Being the first shunned mage and the son of one of the leaders in the Council of Mages has its perks.

Being a famous rock god has its perks, like private jets, adoring fans, and never having to work hard for a hookup. But finding someone who wants me for more than my autograph or what’s in my pants? That’s about as rare as me hitting a wrong note.
When I land in Sunnyside for my first movie role, I head straight to the local bar for some liquid courage. What I find is Duke, the brooding, muscular owner, who is looking at me like I’m trouble walking in skinny jeans. And his husband Early? He’s an angelic imp with a wicked sense of humor who flirts as naturally as I breathe.
They say three’s a crowd. I say it’s just enough bodies to properly fill a king-sized bed for a night of fun. But somewhere between Duke’s heated kisses and Early feeding me homemade pastries, I realize I want more than just one wild night. I want to turn their perfect duet into a permanent trio.
Can I convince this married couple I’m ready to trade sold-out tours for breakfast in bed? Because I’m officially auditioning to be the meat in their husband sandwich, and I plan to nail the callback.

Stewart Schiller never thought this would be the way his life turned out. Instead, he was imagining a dignified retirement, pottering around his small garden, the grandchildren playing happily as a background soundtrack.
He never thought he would be made redundant and end up alone in a big house…obsessing over his reclusive neighbour.
Stewart is more mature than that. Old enough to know better, for God’s sake.
Dylan Scotland was once the happiest house husband alive. Well, that’s what he thought, until his wife took his kids back to Miami and left him alone with nothing but despair. Now he’s stuck in the grotty basement flat with a bad case of depression and a bank account that’s draining faster than his sanity.
He’s tried meditation. Mindfulness. Bloody yoga. Manifesting solutions in his head that hurt as much as his attempts at walking barefoot on the grass outside his patio doors.
Not that he’s going to do that again. Crying in the garden while wearing nothing but a bathrobe is not a good look for meeting the hot silver fox next door. Dylan shouldn’t go outside, ever again.
His life will never be the same. And people really need to learn to mind their own business.

BLURB:
When Chad Randow enlisted in the Navy, he hoped that a six- to eight-month stint at sea would help him get his life in order. Until now, Chad has been able to get by on his good looks, charm, and wit. However, Chad’s disobedient and disrespectful behavior puts him in the crosshairs of Chief Petty Officer Daryl Jenkins, a man known for targeting enlistee sailors who fail to develop respect for their superiors and whipping them into shape.
In the sixteen years that Daryl has served in the military, nothing could have prepared him for his current command at sea. After spending most of a decade single due to a tumultuous breakup with his girlfriend, Daryl has focused solely on his career, establishing himself as a respected member of the armed forces.
Everything changes the day he meets Chad. What starts as late-night workout sessions and extra duties around the ship soon evolves into a romance neither of them anticipated. The two embark on a secret, tense, and erotic journey of self-discovery, love, and loss.
But at what cost?

The final term at Nocturne Academy has begun… and something dark is stirring beneath the surface…
Avery
Being gay in the magical world means hiding who you are—or paying the price. I’ve learned to keep my head down, stay close to my coven, and survive the football team’s cruelty one insult at a time. But nothing prepared me for Saint, my new roommate. There’s a haunted look in his golden eyes… and a monster under his skin.
A Cursed Drake lives inside him—possessive, obsessed, and terrifyingly fixated on me. He whispers of “cuddles,” but there’s violence in his desire. I should be running. Instead, I’m drawn to both the boy and the beast.
Saint
My whole life, I’ve been taught to fear what I am. To hide it. To fight it. But the curse burning inside me grows stronger every day. And when Avery came into my life—brilliant, brave, and already carrying wounds of his own—the fire inside me turned to obsession.
He soothes my madness. Calms the chaos.
But the Drake is hungry… and it wants him.
If I give in, I’ll lose myself. If I resist, I might lose him.

BLURB:
One is all wind and whimsy. The other all scars and silence. Together, they’re building something that just might last.
BERYL
Relationships? Not my thing. I like flirting, pretty things, and keeping things breezy—just like a good Sylph should. I’ve got a job I love, coworkers I adore, and enough sparkly highlighters to wallpaper a house. So why does Kjartan, the hulking orc carpenter with a quiet voice and a missing finger, make my heart flutter like it’s been caught in a windstorm?
One failed hookup and a surprising proposal later—dating, not that other D-word—and suddenly we’re buying furniture together like a couple of nesting lovebirds. But is good sex and shared home decor taste enough to bridge the gap between his countryside roots and my city life? Or am I doomed to fly solo again?
KJARTAN
After everything I’ve been through, I know better than to believe in second chances. But Beryl—bright, bold, unpredictable Beryl—sees through the walls I’ve spent years building. And somehow, he likes what he finds.
A single night with him turns into something more: weekend visits, cozy nights, and building a life one bookshelf at a time. But can I risk my heart again for someone who’s made of wind, here today, gone tomorrow? Or is this the moment I finally let myself believe in love?

To catch a thief, he’ll risk everything—including his heart.

Now, Wraith is after the ultimate prize: a phoenix egg. Is it a real phoenix egg? No one knows. But the Coven wants it, along with the thief and the mysterious buyer.
Adrian Tanner didn’t choose a life of thievery—it chose him when survival meant breaking the rules at sixteen. Two decades later, he’s a master of magic and stealth, earning his reputation as Wraith through carefully selected, high-stakes jobs. By day, Adrian is a reclusive business owner; by night, he’s a shadow in the world of crime. When he’s hired to steal the phoenix egg, the money and the challenge are irresistible. The only hitch?
