For over 300 years, I’ve waited for fate to deliver my soul mate; the person I’d love for the rest of my life; the one I was destined to protect, to treasure and to cherish. The one to complete me. I never expected to find him dancing like an angel in my nightclub. The moment my eyes gazed upon his beauty, my heart was gone. The most mesmerizing thing about him were his eyes; he had the biggest, roundest doe eyes I’d ever seen. They were an enchanting shade of blue; the exact color of the Mediterranean Sea. When I looked into those eyes, I was home.

My love life is kind of a mess. Okay, fine, it’s nonexistent. Believe it or not, short, chubby, and furry aren’t characteristics that top most guys’ boyfriend checklists; no guys I’ve met, anyway. My dating history is a shit parade of one-night stands with men who promised to call the next day but never did. And so, I’ve put finding love on the back burner to focus on my business.

For 328 years, my soul has ached, calling out for its fated match. I yearn for the one who will complete me; the one I can protect, love, honor, and cherish for all time. Of all the many ways I imagined I would meet my soul mate, finding him selling his body in a dank alleyway wasn’t one of them. He was underfed, mistreated, and terrified. He was in need of my love and care, for me to show him his worth and grant him a new life of luxury. But can he learn to trust me? Can I protect him from the demons that follow him? Can he accept me for what I am?

Nikolai is the master vampire to his coven, in a world where humans and paranormal beings live together in peace...usually. When a pack of rogue coyote shifters threatens the city, Nikolai answers a call for aid from the local police department; humans are no match for the speed and strength of paranormals.

Weldon is a homebody who enjoys a simple life. He prefers to spend his time strolling through the woods in bear form, or relaxing in the cabin he built with his own hands. Though he could easily live off of the land, he does venture out into town once in a while to “gather supplies”, though his true hope is to find his fated mate beyond the border of the forest. Weldon never expects a beautiful young man to—literally—fall into his arms one day while he’s out exploring the woods. His mate is in obvious need of tender care from a protective, loving Daddy bear.

Dr. Tage Bentley has dedicated his life to helping others, from his design of a blood substitute, which has helped both vampires and humans alike, to his fight to eradicate human disease. Care giving is hardwired into him, and there is one thing he longs to care for above all else—a special boy of his own.

Long gone are the days of war, when I raised my sword and fought alongside my people, against wicked, greedy souls of our vampire kind. We were victorious over those who stood against us, and King Felipe took his rightful spot on the throne. He appointed a Coven Master for each region to watch over, guide, and protect our people. He named me Coven Master of my hometown of Beckenridge, Scotland, because of my strength, instincts, and fairness.

Lately, I’ve been feeling restless. My best friends are happily mated and constantly loving all over each other. While I’m happy for them, I also can’t help but be a little jealous. It’s a foreign feeling for me; I’ve never been interested in a relationship, since all of my adult life has been about the next hookup with whatever man was in front of me at the time. But lately, hookups just haven’t hit the spot (heh—that sounds dirty). Eager for a change of scenery, I accompany my friends to Spain for the feast being held in honor of Dante and Ben’s marriage.

Brooks - I’ve been coming to this little café every weekday for the past month, and everyday the same guy, Noah, takes my order. He always flirts with me, talks to me, and makes me feel like a million bucks. The problem? He’s in his mid-twenties, which is a baby compared to my 45 years. The first time he winked at and flirted with me, I thought he was making fun of me. I may have cussed him out. Okay, I did. But just a little. But, to my surprise, he just laughed and told me I was cute when I was grumpy.

When he finds his missing piece - his mate Lyric - Sloan hopes it is a sign that he is worthy of the life he has always dreamed of.

Zack: Life has been pretty hectic lately. After working long hours at multiple jobs, I finally saved up enough money for a down payment on a house. The ink barely had time to dry on the mortgage paperwork when things started falling apart and needing repairs. Just when I think my luck can’t get any worse, my truck breaks down and I find myself on the city bus. But what I saw as misfortune turns out to be a blessing in disguise when I sit by a beautiful blue eyed boy named Blake.

He is fiercely loyal to his Coven Master and best friend Callum (to whom he’s second in command), and to his people. Lach owns and runs a bakery in the village, working alone to feed the coven a variety of delicious sweeties. But he’s tired of being alone, especially when it comes to his personal life. He’s so happy for Callum and the love he shares with his mate Brodie, but yearning burns inside him to find his own perfect mate.

But fate has a surprise in store.

Cedric was thrown away by his family on his 18th birthday because of his omega status. He isn't as strong or quick as other lion shifters, and was therefore seen as useless by his old pride. He may also bear children, which his family saw as a crime against nature. When he was cast out, he found a new family made up of a ragtag group of men who were all shunned by their old prides, but who loved each other fiercely.

Sweet little Ollie has narcolepsy, and most of his life, he’s been misunderstood. Even his own parents thought he was just lazy and distant. Then when they learned of his condition, his young years were full of doctor’s visits, sleep studies, and medication trials. He missed out on a lot of ‘childhood’ staples, and finds comfort in them even as an adult. Playing allows him to escape from his troubles and be happy and at peace.

Harley: After the accident 10 years ago that put me in a wheelchair, I did my best to avoid the world and its drama. I lived alone and worked from home. I’d disappear into my safe space for days, maybe even weeks, at which point my cousin always showed up to drag me out of my house to interact with the world whether I wanted to or not. On one of our outings, I meet the most gorgeous man I’d ever seen in my life; Finn Becker.

Lance thought he'd found the man he would spend his life with, only to get burned in the end. In order to protect his heart and his son Brady, he decided to swear off men for good, and focus on being the best dad he could be. But just when he least expects it, temptation comes strolling in with a pair of intense golden eyes that capture Lance's attention and crumbles his resolve. A man named Hunter won't give up when it comes to winning Lance's heart, and the way Hunter accepts Brady may just have Lance ready to give into temptation after all.

Life is great. I’m healthy and happy, enjoying every day with my sweet and sassy Finn by my side. Jake is graduating college and starting his new career, and in just a few weeks, Finn and I will be joined together as husbands. But it never fails that, just when you least expect it, life will throw you a curveball. However, no matter what we’re faced with - awkward run-ins with estranged family, painful memories, discrimination - I’m confident that Finn and I can get through the craziness together and find our way to our happily ever after.

I’ve known my whole life that I was a caretaker and Daddy, and it shows in everything that I do. I even own a toy store downtown, spending my days helping people choose things that make them happy. While I love what I do, it’s also difficult to see Daddies bringing in their littles, and witnessing the love they share when I have no one.

I’ve got a problem—a handsome, brown-eyed, wonderful problem. I’ve fallen deep in love with my cousin-in-law Finn’s friend, Miles. He’s my friend, too, which is where the problem comes in. I’m so far into the friendzone I can’t even see daylight anymore. Just a few days ago, I shared an incredible moment with him—he asked me to dance at Finn and Harley’s wedding, and I held his perfect little body all night long. If he knew the truth about how much that evening meant to me, he’d probably freak out. I should keep my distance too, but I can’t stay away.
