The last time I saw my ex-fling, she was toasting her engagement to a record producer. So when I heard she'd had a baby, I assumed he was the father... until she showed up at my house seven years later with a little boy and said, "Your turn." I'm a drummer who works afternoons and nights. My life is loud, chaotic, and definitely not kid-friendly. But I was raised by a nanny, and I see no harm in finding one for my son. Too bad he rejects every single person I hire. The only person he actually likes? Not a nanny. She's a friend of a friend and the former floor manager at a brewery.

I escaped from Fellgotha by the skin of my teeth, and now Elatha will do anything to get me back. My only hope lies in the pilgrimage; an ancient journey taken by Nicnevins to demand the allegiance of the minor royals. But no one expected my own body to betray me. My fever is coming, and I crave my mates to the point of distraction. On top of that, their protective instincts are running riot. With all of us preoccupied, we might just end up handing our enemies the opportunity they need to bring about our downfall.

Nothing is ever as it seems. Especially when you unintentionally stumble into a fantasy world. As a perfectly ordinary human, the last thing I ever expected was to find myself thrown headfirst into a world of fae, magic—sorry, energy manipulation, and dragons. Dragons who also happen to be gods, revered amongst the multitude of fae races. Known as the Fallen Five, they crash landed in Risest decades ago, when their home world was destroyed or so they thought.

Blood, sex, and magic… Isn’t there a song that goes something like that? Or maybe that's just what you get in a typical afternoon spent with a Vilaxian. Throw in a few loving mates, one that just so happens to have tentacles, a cyborg doctor with mad sex skills, along with a warlock hell-bent on protecting me. and you have a running episode of “Life with Lila.” With alien detainees, Celestian healers, and a mate challenge on the horizon it's going to get even crazier as I navigate my new life in the Galaxy Circus. I've said it before, but it really is out of this world.

The pull to leave Creekwood and join my best friends continues to grow stronger with each day but the thread holding me here is tight, too…maybe tighter. When my past finally collides with my present, revealing a blind spot I never knew I had, it only makes my choice that much harder. I thought I could add to my perfectly calculated life without upsetting the outcome. I thought I could protect the people I love most. I was wrong. So wrong. And now, somebody’s gotta pay. With everything I’ve ever cared about on the line—including her—I can’t afford to lose.

My mates have changed my entire world. The broken wolf. The protective dragon. The passionate griffin. The playful snake. Just when I let myself hope for a happy ending, everything comes crashing down around me. The fate of the world is in the palm of my hand, but to eliminate the threat, I might have to sacrifice more than I’ve bargained for.

An infestation of evil ghosts is too much for spirit medium Cara to handle alone. She summons Quin, and together they attempt to discover where the ghosts came from, and why they refuse to leave this realm. To protect the residents, Cara and Quin must work closely together, leading to old feelings resurfacing between them.

Broken-hearted and mortified after being dumped when she expected a proposal, Lark calls her best friend and roommate for a rescue. While waiting to be picked up, she ducks around the corner into the alley to gain her composure, unaware it will be the action that leads her into a trafficking syndicate.

You know what's worse than my ex-husband? The apocalypse. That's why I'm putting the past behind me as I drag my best friends to safety. My ranch is the perfect place for us to lay low while the world falls apart—as long as I can survive the small-town drama. But I wasn't expecting to come...

We'd arrived at the museum, and everything was going well. Okay, fine. That's a lie. It had gone exactly like the rest of my life had since my dino mates had come crashing into my life… which is to say, it had been a catastrophe of prehistoric proportions. By a weird twist of fate, we'd narrowly avoided being arrested after we'd destroyed the fundraising gala and terrorized the guests. Things didn't go as I'd planned for the rest of the trip, either. Especially when Albert decided to slip his leash and go looking for his own little souvenir to take home….

Edgewood Elite rule this town, but that doesn’t mean they can rule me. After my dad goes missing, my family falls apart. News of an inheritance from a long-lost relative gives us the restart we need. At least, that’s what I think until we get there. Edgewood Academy is ruled by the town’s four heirs. Wes, broody and stuck up, wants me run out of town. He never misses an opportunity to tell me he thinks I’m trash and don’t belong. Wyatt, the jokester who wants to possess me, doesn’t take no for an answer. From day one, he told me I would be theirs.

Scarred but alive, Lark, and her men, survived the ordeal of their kidnapping and rescue. Now they’re in hiding from the syndicate that wants Lark and Apollo back, and the others disposed of. There’s more than just the issue of those who want her and her men captured or killed though, and it’s turned her world upside down yet again.

For centuries, the Eagle of Galmere has been butchering the other races to create the Mortal Cure, an elixir that gives her the illusion of immortality. The human queen’s obsession with living forever has crippled empires, maimed countless innocents, and enslaved hundreds more—including my men.

It’s a universally known fact that all omegas want is a pack and a safe place for their babies. Wrong. I don’t want it. When I screw up my chances of being matched with a pack, I’m sent to the Omega Auctions. There, I’m sold to a royal pack to be their maid. I’m hardly qualified to clean, and I’m not sure being stuck with an unmated pack is the best idea because my first heat is coming and these guys are H.O.T. My name is Reagan and I’m a bad omega who refuses to fall in love. Let’s just hope my heart gets the memo, because that’s knot the life for me.

The walls of my world are crumbling, and it may be too late to save us. The clock is ticking, and a cruel fate has been laid at my feet. And now, I am standing at a crossroads, with the blade of destiny in my grip.

After leaving the Carlotti heirs for my own safety, unsure of if, or when, I'd return, I set out on a journey of self-discovery and healing. But my travels abruptly ended when I discovered the men I couldn't ever fully put out of my mind making national news. I watched from hundreds of miles away as they were arrested. For murdering the two dirty cops. For my alleged kidnapping. Even though I was on my way to help exonerate them, I was too late to save them from our enemies. They hurt my men, but now I'll have my revenge.

My name is Nilsa. I am the Shadow of the Moon. Born to end the life of the Eagle of Galmere. And I have failed. Ever since I left my pirates, things have gone from bad to worse. Now, stuck in the darkest part of the Claw—the mine that serves as a prison for supernaturals and humans alike—there's no way to return the sea and the men I've slowly begun to trust. Instead I'm forced down into the depths of the earth, where ancient things lurk in dark, forgotten places. The key to my freedom is in dubious alliances with dangerous creatures.

After years of pretending half of me doesn’t exist, hiding is no longer an option. Not because I’m ready, but when I walk into the All Hallows’ Eve ball, I have no choice in facing my past. I only went to prove a point. What I didn’t expect was him. Talon is intense, dangerously attractive, and absolutely convinced we’re fated mates. There’s just one problem… I feel nothing.

After leaving home and burning her bridges, Shelby Ann was cocooned in the gloss of high society— the devil in a suit at her side. But beyond acquiring the skill and poise to pull off being a trophy wife, she would discover that all was not as it seemed. With the honeymoon over, the dirt and grime seeped through the loving facade to reveal the monsters that laid beneath.
