A gangster’s life is hard. As the youngest son of a Chicago mobster lord, Fionn O’Grady is no stranger to crime, even though he’s clean and renowned for kissing rather than fighting. It’s a lonely life for a pizza-loving redhead. All he’s ever wanted is an easy-going boyfriend who doesn’t take life too seriously. It’s too bad that no man will date him because of his family.
Trouble comes when a UK undercover cop infiltrates the O’Grady mansion. According to the family, it’s up to Fionn to gain revenge by kidnapping the cop’s kid brother. Kidnap? Fionn couldn’t hurt anyone, certainly not a handsome young man needing a caring boyfriend.
As the chaotic brother of an undercover cop, Oli Green is endlessly fascinated by gangsters, particularly pizza-loving redheads. At twenty, Oli’s no kid—he fantasises about being kidnapped by a gentle gangster to guide him through his first time. Bonus points for emo villains! Above all, Oli wants an easy-going boyfriend who doesn’t take life too seriously…
Fionn and Oli fall together as the gangster lord tightens his net around them. Is Fionn strong enough to decide what matters most—family honour or the tug of his heart?
Gangsters live hard, but they love even harder

Bodie Jimenez has a plan. He might be the reigning champ, but he wants to retire in one piece. He’s confident he can bring home another big buckle, but he knows that locking in sponsors and networking is the only way off this ride without a career, or life, ending injury.
Everyone has told Bodie that Cole is the best in the business, and he’s a good guy, as well. So Bodie doesn’t give up until Cole agrees to see him ride.
Cole has every intention of turning Bodie down, but the way the cowboy rides reminds him of everything he loves about the sport. It’s Bodie’s smile that has him taking the job, however, along with the offer to share the fancy suite the league gives Bodie at events.
Can they have it both ways, or will the cowboy and the agent have to give up pleasure to take care of business?

Ulrik is grateful for his early Christmas present…
After losing his mate to cancer over a year ago, Ulrik wasn’t looking forward to the inevitable question from his parents, “When are you going to find another mate to give us grand babies?” But his sister gives him an early present—a stay at the Winter Wonderland Wilderness Lodge and the news of her pregnancy. She will take the attention of their parents while he enjoys some time in the wintry wilds where he can let his polar bear run free.
But Fate’s plans interrupt their solo vacations…
An error by the booking clerk lands the human and the shifter in the same cabin with only one bed. All the other cabins are booked and neither of them wants to go back home.

The day Gracen fills my office with phone books, I discover that his presence silences the voice incessantly filling my head. As we get closer, the voice gets louder until one day, Gracen realizes that the cult leader isn’t in my head at all. He’s haunting me—tormenting me—even in death.

“The bond was supposed to be political. Clean. Distant. But feelings don’t follow treaties.”
You’d think surfing waves with alien nanotech would be the wildest part of my story. Turns out, that was just the warm-up.
I’m Thomas, aspiring musician, Pacific Ocean water rat, and the guy who got roped into a mating bond to stop a war between Earth and the Volardi Empire.
Zephyron, my alien partner, is massive, scarred, and still grieving the two mates he lost. To him, I’m a reminder of something he thought he’d never have again: hope. Now I’m starting to fall for him, and my body’s changing. So is everything else.
I’m caught between two planets, shadowed by Parker, a nosy documentarian with too many questions, and followed by two reprogrammed alien simulacrums who might be the only ones I can trust when things go wrong. And they will. Especially when creatures like the Zerlites, sharp-toothed and hive-minded, start crawling out of the sand.
I never asked to be anyone’s symbol or savior. I just wanted music and waves. But if I’m going to survive this, if there’s any chance to build something real with Zephyron, I’ll have to fight for it before the desert takes us all.

Canadian alpha beaver shifter Guy sees himself as an entrepreneur, slowly growing his one-man maple syrup company to compete on an international market, but this unfortunately has meant making sacrifices when it comes to his personal life. He definitely should’ve taken the time to date, but there simply hasn’t been anyone in his lodge to interest his beast. But when he travels south of the border for a condiment convention (So close to Christmas? Whose idea was that?), he finds himself accidentally double-booked in a tiny cabin with an omega who smells suspiciously like his mate… Suddenly, his business is no longer his top priority.
For American human omega Fable, the holidays have always been a source of judgment. His parents, his happily married siblings, all asking him when he’s going to hurry up and settle down. But this year, it’s so much worse, because it also happens to coincide with his ten-year high school reunion (So close to Christmas? Whose idea was that?). He simply can’t bring himself to look his peers in the eye and admit that the man voted most likely to take over the world has simply… fizzled out. It’s a good thing the cabin he booked comes with an unexpected ally. And if there just so happens to be only one bed, then he’s willing to pay the price gladly.
