After tragedy strikes, Flint Carswell cuts short his career as a Navy SEAL and returns home to his family's cattle ranch. Grieving and angry with the world, he encounters witty and sexy-as-sin Morgan Flemming, the woman he spent a wild week with the year before. Carrying demons from her past, Morgan is horrified to see Flint. Her uninhibited behavior with hun while she was grieving her mother is something she's tried hard to forget. And, at all costs, she must keep secret what happened after he returned to his platoon. Fate has different plans, throwing the two together at every turn.

Lenora made a mistake. She trusted the wrong man, and in a moment of weakness, he stole a family heirloom from her. Her only chance to get it back will be during Samhain, when the Shadow Market opens and magical folk gather for three days to celebrate, and unfortunately she can’t do it alone. She needs a demon.

I have no memories of whatever life I left behind. No clues indicating why the mage pretending to be my father was hiding me away. And now, I'm fleeing for my life, hunted by mercenaries who want me dead.

I've got a trio of demons on my tail and I pissed off a bunch of vampires. Oh yeah, and there's a human hunter after my mates. All of them. Did I mention that I have a mating bond with multiple males? I thought my life was weird as a supernatural hunter. Now that I'm the protector of the last moonstone, things have gotten positively insane.

I didn’t think they would find me here. I moved to the small town of Whiskey River three months ago, hoping I would finally be safe from my past. For the first time in a long time, I feel like I can breathe easier. Then I meet the mountain man who makes my breath quicken. And my heart race.

When Tristan got a new roommate in the form of a six-foot-three, tattooed, and pierced beast of a man, she wasn't prepared for the instant lust that claimed her. When she stumbled upon an underground cage fight, the last person she expected to see was Kash, bloody and bruised and destroying his opponent. She should have run the other way, but instead, she found herself aroused and wanting him even more.

When the courts end Dr. Vanessa Bryant's career, she's contacted by a secret government facility to work as a doctor - on another planet. Having no other option, she agrees. On planet Daeria, she finds her two escorts are sexier than sin. She's going to have problems keeping her hands off them and staying professional. Madden and Kian, dragon-shifters from Daeria, have been closer than brothers all their lives. Sharing one surrogate is more than ideal to them.

He's everything I don't want. A playboy. A beast with a cunningly gorgeous smile. Faces like his only mean one thing. Somewhere underneath all of that handsomeness, there lies a monster. And if anyone can sense a monster, it's me. I understand cruelty. I've lived and breathed it my entire life. I existed on the "charity" of others until I realized that it wouldn't be enough. My demons would soon be set free. They were coming back for me, and to be ready, I needed to make myself invincible. If I'm going to survive, then I need to make an alliance with a monster of my own: Abel Frazier.

Growing up as a foster kid wasn't easy, but Adrienne White was lucky enough to have a loving family to call her own. Now, she's ready to pay their kindness forward and help a dying planet by being a surrogate. Going to Daeria will also give her the fresh start she desperately needs. What she doesn't expect is the alien planet's magic to wake up powers within her when she arrives. Four men. One woman. Adrienne was definitely not expecting to find four mates. Tempers are bound to flare when such very different personalities are in love with the same woman.

I was selfish - for once, I had to be. The last time I saw Callum, he was standing at the dormer window as I sat in the back seat of a car. His dark eyes foreign to me. The hatred that radiated from his glare shot through me with more force than a silver bullet. In a matter of minutes, he had become a stranger. He was no longer my best friend. He was now a boy with a hollow heart who was headed down a dark path. A path I knew I’d never cross again. Or, so I thought.

Annika Sharp has two goals in life. She needs to take back her family business from her evil stepfather, and she has to protect her beloved family home. When the sexy Banks Amana gets all roped into her plans, Annika knows she's in trouble…. Then she witnesses a murder, redefining what trouble means.

The Ballers took everything away from me last year. Riding the bench wasn't what I'd planned, and I don't want a repeat of that this season. I can't have a repeat of that, not if I want to accomplish all those goals I set for myself when I first came to RHS. There's one problem though. One Baller is determined to keep me on the sidelines. I'm broken because of him. Physically broken. I can't let that stop me though. There's so much riding on this year, and I won't let anything - or anyone - get in my way.

The queen thinks she's won. She's in for a surprise when we come for her. We're taking on the Vampire Queen. Sure, it's insane, but it seems about on par with everything else lately. We've got a good crew. A few mages, some shifters, my mates, and even an assassin with amnesia. We're determined, and we will take back what's ours. When the Vampire Queen decides to start testing out the power of the stone, we've run out of time.

They say, the universe always conspires to give you what you've always wanted. In my case, it's revenge with Jax Michaels. My brother's best friend, my sworn enemy, and now my new boss. Three years ago, I let him deflower me. A mistake that left me devastated. Scarred. Wounded. Hurt. I've hated him all these years, thinking of ways I can make him pay back for what he did. And fate makes sure our paths cross once again.

The Vampire Cabal meets only under the direst circumstances. But since Skye Claremont's coven proved wild magic has returned, the cabal has gathered in New York City to decide the fate of the powerful mages. Skye doubts her oracular powers can help. After ten years indentured to a demon gang, paying off her father's gambling debts with visions, her freedom has come despite her weak abilities, not because of them. But when her father sends a text to demand a meeting, she doesn't need to read the future to know trouble will follow.

I’d known exactly who he was—the Unseelie prince. But I hadn’t known just what he was. I’d been fooled. The creature I’d formed a tentative friendship with in my family’s dungeon was not the gentle, intriguing prince I’d thought him to be. He was a monster. A bloodthirsty beast. And I’d helped him escape my uncle’s clutches. Such a betrayal called for severe consequences, and the price of releasing the biggest threat our kingdom had faced in hundreds of years was not one I would survive.

His betrayal destroyed her trust. Luca did everything for Fallon. But as the underboss of the Chicago Syndicate, he has an entire organization depending on him, and she is a weakness he can no longer afford. When Fallon's life continues to unravel, she will need Luca more than ever, but can she move beyond all the lies and deceit?

FBI Agent Lily Yu is in North Carolina with her lover and mate, Rule Turner, Lu Nuncio of the Nokolai werewolf clan. He is there to take custody of his son from the boy's grandmother. It's a purely personal trip until Rule, in wolf form, finds three bodies in a shallow grave. They carry the stench of death magic, which makes the murders a federal crime. Lily takes charge of the investigation and soon realizes that nothing adds up - not the motives or the main suspect, who is behind bars when death strikes again.

We all have a façade, a concealed mask we wear to portray ourselves to the world. Fallon has never had to wear a mask. She grew up with two loving parents in Chicago, graduated from college and is now working a job she loves. But her untarnished world is shaken when Luca crosses her path.

Folks in town call him a monster - say he's dangerous. But I know him simply as Elijah Hays, the quiet, gentle giant who works with the horses on my ranch. I can feel him watching me, that steady, intense gaze making me crave things I don't quite understand, burn in a way that frightens me. He's always kept his distance...until that night.
