Tanya has just entered the final stage of her pregnancy, and excitement is running high. Her mates insist on putting a crap ton of rules and regulations in place to ensure that her and the baby's health are not put into jeopardy. They become more and more overprotective with each passing day and may have gone a little overboard in the process. 

I was exiled by my pack three years ago when we found out that I’m a double alpha; too powerful to exist amid my own kind. I should have been put to death, but the council spared me. Now, I have to live by a bunch of rules. I’m not allowed to take a mate. There are no babies in my future. Humans can never find out what I am. No problem! At least it wasn’t a problem until now.

It's been years since he last saw her. Since he inhaled her scent. Since he held her in his arms. Cyclone made some terrible mistakes. Mistakes that cost him the love of his life. He's lived with regret ever since. Now she's back. Not only that, she's on dragon soil and will be staying for the foreseeable future. Cyclone has a real chance to fix things. To win her back. Only, she wants nothing to do with him. Good thing he's persistent and loves the hunt. 

The last thing Tamara expected was to be snatched away by a winged beast. This hadn’t been part of the brief. Was this normal hunt behavior? Surely not. She had a really bad feeling about this. Once the feeling settled in the pit of her stomach, it wouldn’t let go.

Keto is soon to be crowned. He doesn't feel quite ready even though it's a day he's been working toward his whole life. There are many changes he wants to bring about, all for the betterment of his people. He has a kingdom to run and a council to win over. Elven kings can be voted out of power by their councils. His position is not yet cemented. His first order of business is to choose an elven female. One he can take as a mate. Keto desperately needs heirs. It is expected of him and must happen soon. Why can't he get a certain vampire female out of his head though?

After one glorious night, Rushe considers the human doctor to be his. His. Damn. It. Unfortunately, he must bide his time before being permitted to pursue Becky. Ross, on the other hand, wastes no time in going after what he wants, namely, one lush human. The scent of another male on her skin only incites him further to eradicate the shifter from her mind, by whatever means necessary.

Avalanche finds himself in the deep, dark recesses of the Earth. It's nothing like he ever imagined it would be. All he needs to do is to survive long enough to win the prize.

Her hands grip the steering wheel, and her foot slams down on the brake. There is a god-awful screeching noise as the tires skid across the asphalt. It's too little too late, and her vehicle collides with the large, furry beast, with a hard thud. The creature is flung from her vehicle, landing in a mangled, bleeding heap. Jackie can't believe it's even still alive. Despite the danger, her years of veterinary training kick in, and she gets to work to try to save its life.

Typhoon doesn't have a mate. It's not for lack of trying, he just hasn't found the right person yet. The problem he faces is that he is desperate to have a baby. It's all he can think about. He's willing to do just about anything to make it happen. Natalie has always dreamt of going to college, of making something of her life before it's too late. The problem is that she's seriously cash-strapped. Her folks died four years ago, leaving her with debt and a little sister to raise. They're barely keeping their heads above water as it is.

Torrent took part in the much-anticipated hunt. Luckily, he managed to secure himself a female. Although the human was not his first choice, she'll do. A fertile female is a fertile female after all. An heir is what he needs and an heir is what she'll give him. In return, she'll get to be queen of the water kingdom. What more could a female wish for?

Riley and her best friend, Ashlyn, decide to go out for a night on the town. Slightly buzzed and grinning from ear to ear, they leave the club to wait for their ride home. From there, it's all a big blur. One thing Riley knows for sure is that it definitely goes pear-shaped and fast. One minute they're on the sidewalk joking around, and the next...they're in the air. As in grabbed from above by God knows what. The creatures are huge, silent, and fast. Oh, and they can fly. Fly!

I don’t think I’m on Draig Island anymore. I’m deep inside a dark jungle. At least I’m not too badly hurt. I’ll regroup and then hike to civilization. Please let there be civilization! I’m a little worried about wild animals, but I’m sure I’ll be okay. I refuse to believe in the existence of dragons. It hasn’t been more than a few hours, and a huge hulk of a man comes crashing out of the undergrowth. He’s naked, covered in tattoos, and scares the living daylights out of me. After a little while, I realize that he’s not going to hurt me. At least, I don’t think he will.
