Being a vampire boss's daughter was a lot of work. Being the only girl heir from the five families, I’d always had to work harder, fight dirtier, care less. It made me into the woman I was today, causing fear in my enemies and a bloody trail for those who betray us. Then my dad sprung on me that the other bosses and their sons were coming into town. They wanted us heirs to all meet, to bond with each other.

I spent my life trying to escape my mother’s superstitions. Her rituals. Her whispers of evil lurking beyond. I chose logic. A master’s degree. A new life. But when she died, guilt dragged me back to honor her in the only way I knew how. A quiet song at her grave. A final goodbye. Then he appeared. A man covered in shadows, tattoos, and riddles. The next thing I knew, I was unconscious, and when I woke, I was no longer free.

Edgewood threatens to chew me up and spit me out. Since moving to town, my life has been turned on its axis. Everything I thought I knew is a lie, and even as secrets are revealed, more questions arise. I’ve been forced into a ruthless game—one with deadly consequences in order to take care of my siblings in my parents’ absence. A game that has the Queen Bee of the school out for my blood because the heirs of the school are fighting to win me over. The question is, are their motives pure, or will I be on the receiving end of a Ruthless Rejection?

I thought I had a lot of questions before. Finding myself back in Besmet with the demon from my dreams, I’m finding it hard to deny the connection I feel toward him, despite the fact that he’s certifiably insane. When did my life get so chaotic?

Meet cutes and roses aren’t my jam. Give me a hot Beta, no promises, and an orgasm any day. Unfortunately for me, I’ve been assigned a new project at work—a daily romance column where I’ll be forced to give advice to eager readers searching for their one true love. This Omega has two options: take the job and impress my boss, or kiss my transfer to Arizona goodbye.

That’s the golden rule woven into the people of Elphyne, but for deaf Elf Guardian Aeron, he knows this isn’t true. Lies are told between the lines, in misdirection, and in false hope.

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.

Once again, I walk this earth alone. Destined for a life of misery as a Rogue—an Omega who can't be tamed. So, what's the point in trying to be desirable? I may as well just give in to the deadly stereotype. I just wish that I could forget about Brody. My scent match. Unfortunately, he belongs to three others. Theo, Alastor, and Kellen won't even let me near him. They think I'm a threat. A monster. Maybe they're right. Maybe the government should have sentenced me to death after all. Yet, if someone as kind as Brody could love me, then perhaps… I'm not as awful as I thought.

He came to kill me but, instead, almost killed my mate. Our list of enemies continues to grow and with it uncertainty. I'd never thought about my future until my mates came into my life and I saw it laid out before me. I moved to Arbor Falls to find myself and found so much more. I found home.

When work explodes—quite literally—in my face, I’m forced into hiding until the smoke clears. Now I’m living in a small town, with the one man who has the power to break down my carefully constructed identity. Ten years ago he walked away without so much as a goodbye and broke my fragile, barely legal heart.

I wanted to do everything right. Instead, I broke the law. I’m supposed to be the perfect omega—Omega of the Year, polished and prepared, bonded before graduation. But I was left with no match and no pack. I didn’t mean to trespass on private property. Or fall in their pool. Or get caught by the most famous unbonded alphas in the world, N’Pact. Now I’m hiding with four alphas I was never supposed to meet: Alvaro, the gruff leader barely holding it together.

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.

My dark knights thought their shadows would be too much for me, but they're quickly learning that they're not the only ones who’ve kept their deepest desires a secret. Now that we’ve crossed that line, they can't keep their hands off me. I didn't think they could get any more protective, but I was wrong.

Erik Bloodsinger never wanted to live in a cruel kingdom that was desperate to shape their scarred, young king into someone ruthless. But fate is cruel sometimes. Perhaps vengeance for his fallen father is what drives the young Ever King, but there are secrets Bloodsinger and his crew keep in the shadows to survive the cruel twists of fate in the Ever Seas. Enjoy the backstory of a boy king forced to bear the burden of a crown too soon. This story reveals events from the death of King Thorvald up to the days after the earth and sea fae war.

He was dark and handsome. Charming, older, and rich. She was the young and pretty girl, infatuated with a suave man who didn't exist. 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.

I never should have looked twice at her, let alone touched her. She was my stepsister. Forbidden in every way. And yet, I fell, and fell hard. But nothing worth fighting for is simple, and it’s going to turn our worlds upside down. Our love isn’t easy. It’s complicated, messy, and pushes all the boundaries. But it’s ours, and despite the pain and heartache, it might just be worth it in the end.

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.

Milina Porter is a name few know. Now, I’m a ghost who works in the shadows. Car heists is what my name is known for, and my reputation is infamous. Secrets haunt a past that I’ll do anything to keep buried. I’ve been running from a devil who makes death seem like a mercy. Now, I have a chance to escape him for good. Only, I can’t do it alone. I need to partner with others who share my expertise in heists. Which is how I ended up in Ridgewood to work with the Riot Crew.

No one makes me look weak. I’ll show everyone there are consequences for crossing my family. Arianna Pontrelli is mine. I forge her signature on the marriage contract. And stake my claim on this cold, aloof woman. Then show the entire world that she belongs to me.

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.
