Too bad my traitorous body goes into heat mid flight. I’m almost positive they’ll make an emergency medical landing and I’ll be sedated for my heat.

But I find an unlikely knight in shining Alpha armor—the plane’s captain.

He offers me a lifeline, one that will save me from the pain of heat sedation. He’ll not only make sure I get back home safely, but he and his pack will take care of me during my heat at a neutral location, Heat Haven.

The three Alphas keep their promise, even when everything doesn’t go perfectly.

Post-heat clarity is 20/20 and I can’t help but to wonder if these men could be more than thoughtful strangers, maybe they could be the pack I always wished for.]]>

I won’t leave my feral alphas behind, and what sane pack would accept living with two violent killers?

Unexpected Delivery 227869566
I have to get out before it's too late.

Biding my time until I can make a clean escape is the safest option, especially because my ex grows more volatile with every passing day. Unfortunately, by the time I find a window to put my plans in motion, I'm already thirty-eight weeks pregnant.

It doesn't matter if it's an inconvenient time for a move across the country. I take the chance, because I know I won't get another. Maine is like a whole different world when I'm used to Arizona, but I make the best of it.

Only my little one decides to make her arrival early and during a snowstorm, no less. Morris and his twin packmates, Hayes and Hael, come to the rescue, but the baby isn't in the mood to wait. They may help deliver my daughter, but I fully expect them to leave once we make it to the hospital.

It looks like we're all in for some surprises.

After all, my ex isn't going to allow me to just disappear. And more than that, what alphas would want to take on all my baggage?

Unexpected Delivery is a complete standalone with no cliffhanger. It's set in the same world as When She Needs Them Most and Whatever it Takes, but they can be read independently of one another. As with all my books, you'll find no cheating, no choosing, and the men fall first.]]>

Violet (Omegas in Bloom #1) 221310960
I can’t.

Luckily, during this spring’s mating season, I catch the attention of the Council Monarch, and suddenly, I'm the hottest topic on social media. Just when things seem to be falling into place, in walks Stephan Ashford—famous actor and devastatingly charming lone Alpha. His scandalous past and refusal to claim an Omega makes him the most eligible—and unattainable—Alpha of the season, but he’s just what I need.

To get people talking, Stephan and I agree to a fake relationship. For him, it keeps his rabid fans at bay; for me, it brings more potential mates to my door. But as our connection deepens, something far more dangerous simmers beneath the surface.

Now, we’re caught in a war between our own primal instincts and the dark secrets we carry. It could implode all around us—or lead us straight into each other’s arms.


Violet is a part of the Omegas in Bloom series. It is a modern Bridgerton retelling based in a contemporary omegaverse world, and it will end with the female main character having only one love interest.

Great story. Ok for me the beginning was a little harder to get into. But then it really picked up and I was hooked right into the story. Omegaverse story with almost like the old romance story twist. The whole high society and the courtships is why I’m thinking almost like regency romance books. But wow the storyline picked right up. Violet and Stephan were good characters. I liked Violet more than Stephan. But he started growing on me. Definitely a great book. Can’t wait for more.

<![CDATA[Lost and Stolen Gods (Labyrinth of Gods, #1)]]> 229006238 Gods aren’t born, they’re made.

I should have died the same night that a monster murdered my grandmother, but I was saved, stolen from my world, and thrown into a realm ravaged by an endless war between ancient gods called Asura.

I’m told that I’m a demigod, that there are others like me, brought to this world to replenish their dwindling numbers. They want us to prove we’re worthy of ascension and fight alongside them.

I don’t give a damn about their war. All I want is vengeance on the monster that killed my only family. A monster from their world. And if the only way to kill it is to become a god, then I’m all in.

But the path of ascension is paved with dangerous tests, culminating in a lethal trial called the labyrinth of gods.

Only an ancient fire elemental has the power to help me survive it.

His wicked mouth sets my pulse racing, and his dark threats turn my blood to ice. Charismatic and terrifying, he attracts and repels me in equal measure, and I have no doubt he’d snap my neck in a heartbeat if freed from the magical bonds that compel him to aid me.

He hopes to be my undoing, and if I’m not careful I may not make it to the labyrinth alive.

To claim the vengeance that I desire, I’ll need to protect my body and shield my mind, but most of all, I’ll need to guard my heart.

Enter an Otherworldly realm filled with gods, monsters, and mystical beings. Opposites attract and love and conflict collide, in this forced proximity romance.]]>

<![CDATA[Claimed by the Alpha Wolves (The Omega Selection #1)]]> 223848422 Being dragged to The Omega Selection is the start of my nightmare�

All the other omegas are excited to participate in the games that may lead them to their alphas. Being chosen by alphas is their greatest desire.

But me? I just want to be left alone.

I thought the worst case scenario in coming to The Selection would be that I’d be forced to find a mate. I thought I might have to be tied back to the world of the living after my brother’s murder, when I’m not ready. What I didn’t plan for� that my brother’s murderer would try to claim me as his omega.

Faced with the monster from my past, I’m left completely at his mercy until two alphas save me from his clutches by claiming me as their mate. They don’t really love me. They don’t really want me. But if our pretend relationship can save my life, I’ll be the best actress imaginable. I’ll dote on the two handsome men. I’ll respond to their gentle touches and their lingering looks. No matter how much my heart is locked away from the world, I’ll play the perfect omega to my alphas.

I just hope this game of ours doesn’t become too real.

CLAIMED BY THE ALPHA WOLVES is a steamy paranormal reverse harem series with a gentle heroine and protective heroes. There will be a happy ending at the end of the trilogy.]]>

<![CDATA[Séance (A Spirit Realm Novel Book 1)]]> 220187926 Book one in the Spirit Realm Duet...

I see dead people.

While it might sound cool, I can assure you, it’s not. The dead are even bigger assholes than the living.

I learned at a young age to be invisible. Even breathing wrong could set my father off. The beatings have become progressively worse as I’ve gotten older, and I fear I won’t survive to see my eighteenth birthday.

So I plotted my escape, and no one is more surprised that it worked than me!

The outside world is nothing like I expected and comes with its own set of problems—five of them to be exact. The five sexy men next door are flirty and fun, and even better, they know nothing about my past. I’m determined to keep it that way. Unfortunately, the dead won’t stay quiet, and death and destruction shadow my every footstep.

When one of the men stumbles into danger, I have to make the tough decision to reveal my secrets or allow him to suffer for my sins. Just when I think they accept my unique quirks, my past comes back to haunt me…literally. If I can’t learn to master my abilities, none of us will come out of this alive.

Meet the Rue, Hicks, Gunner, Ellis, and twins, Jameson and Jaceson.

** This book contains dark themes and violence. You have been warned. Read at your own risk.

Toxic B!tch 228945088
She gave me her number with a pretty smile, but when I reached out I got someone else instead. Someone loud. Someone weird. Someone completely my opposite.

Her name is Indigo, and somehow, I couldn’t stop texting her.

She’s everything I’m not� fearless, unpredictable, drop-dead gorgeous with her pinup curves and dark sense of humor. I should’ve blocked her. I should’ve let it go. But instead I fell for the way she made me feel like I was special. Like I wasn’t just another forgettable guy.

Then one night, I found her in the woods. Blood on her hands. A woman’s body at her feet.

Now, I know the truth. Indigo isn’t just mine. She’s dangerous.

I should be afraid. I should run. But when she tilts her head and whispers, she was mean to you. I took care of it�

I don’t know if I want to run at all.]]>

<![CDATA[Knotting With A Stranger: A Cozy Omegaverse Romance (Whispering Grove Book 1)]]> 222346143 AMAZON TOP 100 BESTSELLER

It started with a message to the wrong number� now I’m craving a stranger.

Running the bakery with my sister is my life—early mornings, endless dough, and just enough sugar to keep me sane. I don’t have time for distractions.

But when I accidentally text a stranger, everything changes.

He’s not just mysterious—he’s sharp-tongued, wickedly charming, and far too good at making me forget common sense. What starts as playful banter turns into something more� something that stirs my Omega instincts in ways I don’t understand. His words make me burn, his voice wraps around me like a promise, and when he finally asks to meet� I panic.

Because no one this intense, this consuming, can be real.

I tell myself to forget him, but fate has other plans. A snowstorm, a wrong turn... and suddenly I’m face-to-face with the man who’s haunted my thoughts. Only he’s not alone. His world is sharp edges and whispered threats, tangled in power plays and ruthless Alphas.

I should walk away. But his touch ignites something primal inside me, and resisting him feels impossible.

He says I belong to him.

But in a world ruled by Alphas, giving in might mean losing myself� and I’m not sure I’ll make it out whole.

This standalone Cozy Omegaverse romance is filled with slow-burning tension, and a thrilling edge that’ll leave you breathless.

This is a Whispering Grove Novel.

I got here three hours before my departure time. But my flight decided to miss me.

It seems like everyone’s flight has been canceled.

They can’t all have weather delays!

All I want is to roast on a beach in Florida and forget all about the fact that I’ve been fired. Dismissed. Discharged. Terminated is the word human resources prefers. Because they’re actual sadists.

The last thing I need is this human-shaped Golden Retriever, who won’t stop smiling at me and telling me it’s not so bad. Things could be worse. No sense being angry about what we can’t control.

I don’t know what I did to attract this man. Was it my entirely unapproachable expression? The way I was screaming at customer service on my phone?

Whatever the reason, I am not sharing a hotel room with him. His snores probably come out in the tune of “You Are My Sunshine.�

He’s too happy to be real. Even if he does seem genuinely interested in helping me find some joy in spite of my current situation.

It’s not like letting him make me smile is going to change anything.]]>

Remember when I said hunting down those two Accardi heirs would be a piece of cake?

Well� I found one of them, only to realize he’s a guy I hit and quit two years ago. What's even worse is the fact I still remember him. I never remember my flings, I’m the girl who scratches the itch and moves on.

Of all the itches, why did it have to be a clingy one? This maniac says we’re soul mates. Ha! Yeah, right.

Either way, he’s still an Accardi and I have a job I won’t fail to complete, and I already have plenty of distractions. Bear and I are now something� more. It works. Most of the time. Nothing that can’t be fixed with a good hand necklace. Oh right, I also kidnapped a vet who’s a vet and decided to keep him. Who doesn’t need a good puppy to have around?

So, clearly, I already have men who are way too much work. No seriously, I can’t go a damn hour with one of them asking about my feelings. Why the hell would I want a third man? Who, I might add, is a con artist. Irritatingly, I can't kill him yet. He just so happens to be the only one who can help me find the moles his evil step-mother snuck into the family business.

But after that’s done I’ll kill him. Probably…]]>

<![CDATA[Champagne Venom (Orlov Bratva, #1)]]> 123259361 I spent the night with a stranger�
Who got me pregnant�
And turned out to be my boss�
Whoops, sorry, did I say “boss�? I meant a MOB boss.

To be fair, I didn’t know he was my boss when I slept with him.
I thought he was just the kind stranger offering me a place to stay.
But one night in Misha Orlov’s hotel room got me way more than I bargained for.

It got me champagne that tasted like starlight.
Satin sheets as soft as a dream.
And a man with silver eyes who showed me how it felt to come undone.

And then, in the morning�
He was gone.

That’s I needed to get my life together anyway.
After all, my ex-not-quite-husband (it’s a long story) just emptied all our bank accounts and disappeared, taking my home and my money and my job with him.
So I’m starting from a blank slate.

I find myself a new apartment.
A new job.
And I put both Misha and my husband behind me.

At least, I thought I did.
Until Day 1 of orientation.
When I learn that Misha Orlov is my new boss.

That’s bad enough.
What’s worse is what came next.
A car crash.
A doctor’s appointment.
And two pieces of unsettling news.

Congratulations, the doctor says. You’re pregnant.
Congratulations, Misha says. You and I are getting married.

CHAMPAGNE VENOM is Book One of the Orlov Bratva duet. Misha and Paige’s story concludes in Book 2, CHAMPAGNE WRATH. ]]>

No? Just me? Cool.

A scent match is supposed to be a fated bond, a once-in-a-lifetime connection that brings omegas to their perfect pack—which, in theory, sounds great. Cute, even.

Except I never wanted a pack. I never wanted alphas sniffing around, acting like I’m some precious little thing that needs to be handled gently. I certainly never wanted to end up scent-matched to three lethal, possessive, and frankly ridiculous mercenaries who don’t seem to understand the word no.

They smell like sin. They look like trouble. And they act like I belong to them.

Spoiler I don’t.

I’ve spent years making sure no one owns me—years fighting for my freedom, for the right to stand on my own. But now? Now my past is rearing its ugly head, and the monsters I’ve spent years outrunning are finally catching up.

<![CDATA[Haunted By Regret (Heaven's Guardians MC, #3)]]> 48594887

It’s what happens to a man that loses his entire family.
The first years that followed their demise were the worst.

Determined to inflict even a fraction of my pain onto those responsible,
I paid them back the same way they paid me.
I was content to live out my days knowing justice was dealt at my hands.

Consumed with rage.
Obsessed with revenge.
Haunted by regret.

Years later, I take in two boys and suddenly it’s no longer only about me.

That’s where she comes in.
A broken nanny who heals us all.]]>

He thought he killed me.
But my job wasn’t finished yet.

My days are spent as President of the Heavens Guardians MC.
Nights are spent searching for the scum of the earth.

Rapists, Murderers, Pedophiles.
They all answer to me.

I thought I’d seen it all.
Thought my heart couldn’t be any darker.
Thought I knew exactly how far I was willing to go.

Then a battered and broken woman was found behind our clubhouse,
and I realized, I’ve never had a clue about the monster that lurks within.

They may call me Priest,
but I’d sell my soul to the devil before I let anything take her away from me.]]>

Story seriously is phenomenal. Page turner with so much action I was again glued to the pages. Action, drama, steam and couple things I wasn’t expecting throughout.

When I lose my job and my apartment on the same day, I’m not exactly in a position to say no to a cocky billionaire’s bold move into his mansion for a month, train his unruly dog, and earn enough cash to turn my luck around.

But he failed to mention one crucial detail—he has two infuriating, impossible-to-ignore, gorgeous roommates.

Grayson is the devastatingly handsome widower with walls thicker than steel. He is the definition of control and is wound tighter than a rubber band ready to snap.

Then there’s Chase, the excitable golden retriever who’s equal parts protective and playful. He flirts like it’s his full-time job, and I can’t help falling headfirst into his charm.

And Cole? Intense, dominant, and devastatingly direct, he’s the man who sees every crack in my armor—and makes me want to let him in anyway.

Three powerful men. One intoxicating situation. For the first time, I have something that feels like family. But can I trust that they’ll stay when things get messy—or will I end up alone again?]]>

To the facility owners I’m just a juicy line on their spreadsheets, and to the collectors who milk me for all I’m worth, I’m just a job. Because there are powerful, wealthy people who will pay a lot of money to have exclusive rights to my slick.
I live in ignorance of this betrayal for nearly a decade, sold on a dream of one day retiring with my perfect mate.
Until they bring in a specimen � a real, live alpha � to tempt a record deposit out of me.
Not only does he bust through a wall to get to me, but he breaks me out, taking my beta caretaker with us. This should be the start of our perfect life together, but we’re barely free of the facility before we’re torn apart.
Now I’m alone in a world I’ve forgotten.
Until I meet the men who smell and taste almost as good as my alpha.
Maybe this is the real dream � a pack of my own � if we could just stay alive long enough for them to knot me.

This is a steamy, standalone omegaverse, with all the delights of pack bonds, mating bites, messy heats, and alpha knots. There are NO shifters in this story. Check the trigger warnings in the Author's Note.]]>

Missed Exit 222482311 Let’s get a few things I am not a runaway bride, nor am I a jilted bride.

It would be impossible for me to be any kind of bride at all since my ex-fiancé called off our engagement the day after our wedding planner mailed our invitations.

I did not run away from the ceremony, and I was not left at the altar.

I am a non-bride!

And the only things I’m running away from are the sympathetic smiles and back pats from people back home, who suddenly decided to treat me like I have a terminal diagnosis. Terminally single? Sign. Me. Up.

The last thing I needed after a seven-hour drive across Texas was for some wannabe cowboy in his big black pickup truck to make me miss my exit.

Correction, the last thing I needed was to finally make it to my rented duplex half an hour after the movers had given up on me and unloaded all my stuff onto the driveway.

Nope, that’s not right either. The actual last thing I needed was to discover that the road raging idiot, who should have his license revoked for reckless driving, is my new neighbor. As in, we share a fence. And a bedroom wall.

I never needed to know that he sits on his back patio wearing nothing but a pair of black boxer briefs while he drinks his morning coffee, also black. And I for sure never needed to know what he sounds like when he�

What I’m saying is we are entirely too close for comfort, okay? And I am a non-simp for my neighbor! No matter how many times he fixes something I break.

It’s not like he can fix me.]]>

Forget (Unhingedverse) 218444464
A word that means so much, and can be used in so many ways.
I wish I could forget that my mother died when I was only sixteen. I wish I could forget the terror of living alone and on the streets.

Most of all, I wish I could forget the fear I feel over my designation as an omega.

Going through heat is normal, I should be able to suck it up and get through it with anyone, right? But sharing my body when I’m completely vulnerable feels too intimate to share with a random alpha. Unfortunately, I don’t have a choice.
My current situation means I need to find a pack I can trust that’s willing to help me through my heats. I don’t need forever, I need four days every month.

This is my last chance, and I’ve been forced to turn to an app as my last resort. Date after date, alpha after alpha, nothing is working but I’m running out of time. And when one date turns into an unwanted confrontation with a pack member I hate, I know for sure the system was hacked. There’s no way I’d match with him otherwise.

My heat is coming early, though, and my choices aren’t mine anymore. Which means this unhinged pack is my only option.
I’ll have to forgive and forget, if only for now.
And I know exactly how to end it if I change my mind.





*Forget is Aisling’s story. It is a dark omegaverse with multiple scent mates. There will be groveling, knots, and a knife wound or two.*]]>

Fight (Unhingedverse) 213182239
I’ve been running from danger my entire life. I finally have roots, a home, a roommate who is my best friend that I’m secretly in love with. I refuse to take shit from anyone, so when I kicked a belligerent alpha out of my club, I didn’t realize my life would change forever.

Three gorgeous alphas saved me from being eaten by rats, making me think that was the end of my nightmare.

But now I’m locked in a house that would be any other omega’s dream home, but to me it’s a pretty cage. Trapped by the promise of security, I’m so confused by what I’m supposed to feel. Scent matches are what every omega wishes for, but I’ve never wanted one, much less three. Destiny and biology are so unfair.

I’m broken, terrified of not having any options, so I’ll do what I always do. Fight.

If you love omegas that are fierce and wear combat boots, then this book is for you.]]>

Caged Heat 209149093 It was time to let go.At sixteen, I became a mom and a young bride.

At twenty a widower and a single parent.

I worked three jobs to put my son through school, and eventually, myself. Graduating college at forty hadn’t been my plan, but I’d finally done it. With a new job lined up, my life was about to drastically change.

No more double shifts. No more making ends meet. No more living paycheck to paycheck.

I should’ve felt joyous. But all I felt� was alone.

I’d spent so many years working that I hadn’t lived my life.

There were no dates. No casual flings. No weekends away.

And now I realized how utterly sad that was.

Pressured into online dating, I was shocked when a younger guy slid into my DMs. I was even more surprised when my grumpy former boss made a play.

One younger, one older and me between them. I couldn’t resist them, but it felt like too much, too soon.

Could I break out of my cage, or would I forever be destined to be alone?

Aurora Achilles

Ever since I fainted in Giorgio Vivaldi’s arms six years ago, my mother keeps me locked in my room like a fairy tale princess, but I’m no damsel in distress. I’ve honed my hacking skills and built my wealth in secret, planning to run away with my brother, but my mother ruins everything by announcing my arranged marriage.

I vow to hate my groom for crushing my hope, but when our first meeting reveals a grown version of the boy who saved me six years ago, I falter. Except, he’s not the knight in shining armor of my dreams.

He’s the dangerously sexy, sinfully tattooed monster of my nightmares, and I’m his new plaything.

As the heir to New York City’s most powerful mafia family, I’ve made it my mission to annihilate anyone involved in my sisters� attacks, so when my father interrupts my hunt to announce my arranged marriage, I reluctantly agree� until the girl behind the most embarrassing moment of my life walks in.

“Atticus was all in, and well, I guess I was all in with the mafia.�

If you’d asked me six months ago if this was what my life would look like, I would’ve politely told you that you were insane. But now, the mafia, or the men in it, had become my world, and I was learning to embrace the darkness I’d long ignored.

When an enemy rose from the grave and took people from my life, I realized I could no longer play it safe. Always being underestimated meant I was ready to show Dayton Mascro just what a therapist could do. He was about to learn why there was nothing more dangerous than love.

This was the fight of my life. I just had to believe in myself long enough to win.

Book 4 will be the final book in the series. This book will release this summer. Read the novellas, Reckless and Relentless while waiting for the release.

This is the 4th book in the series and books 1-3.5 must be read first. This is a why choose novel, meaning the main female character doesn't have to choose between love interests. This is a dark contemporary mafia romance, medium burn with a slow build harem. The characters are adults with most being 30 and above. This story deals with depression and other themes that may be triggering. Please read the forward at the beginning of the book for more details. This is an adult romance and intended for readers 18+ due to language and content. This series does contain an MM relationship.]]>

I was tired of hiding behind fear, the lies holding me back too much. It was time to drop the mask completely and embrace the reality that had been staring me in the face.

Except now, I was the one with the secret.

Faced with an unimaginable dilemma, I had to face what was at stake—the family I was creating versus the woman I’d always been.

Maybe it was time to step out of my own shadow and into the woman I was meant to be?

Vowing to myself to fight for what I wanted, I wouldn’t let anything stand in my way this time—even myself.

But what if I wasn’t enough? Could I overcome the pressures or would I lose everything?

<![CDATA[Dangerous Lies (Dark Confessions, #2)]]> 58835808
I’d once thought the only thing that mattered was the truth. But perhaps I’d been naive.

Learning to navigate life with my eyes open, I’d found things weren’t as they seemed. The good guy didn’t always get the girl, the right thing wasn’t always easy to spot, and the bad guy wasn’t always the villain. Life was more about perception than truth. Maybe� that was the biggest lie of all.

My mother and ex-husband hid behind their mansions and club memberships, making everyone believe they were better and had it all together. Deep down they were twisted and cruel, covering it up with pretty lies.

The mask I’d worn for so long no longer protected me, the facade cracking as I began to emerge into my own person. Heartache, deceit, and treachery kept knocking at my door, but they had no place here. I could see through their betrayals and I was no longer alone to carry the pain.

I used to think my biggest confession was having it all and losing it so epically, laying splattered on the floor in a million pieces. Yet, piece by piece, I was being put back together. Which led me to wonder if I’d ever been whole to begin with?

When your whole life was a lie, did you ever know the truth?

This is a dark contemporary mafia romance with LGBTQ+ themes and a why-choose romance. This is book 2 in a 4 book series. This book is intended for 18+ audiences due to adult content. Please check the foreward for content warnings.]]>

<![CDATA[Dangerous Truths (Dark Confessions, #1)]]> 58271854 Inside, I was dying—empty, dark, alone.

Keeping it all together was exhausting and the ‘perfect� mask I wore was beginning to slip. Pretending to have it all together wasn’t working anymore as the lies I had to tell weighed heavier each day. I’d done everything right my whole life and I still ended up divorced, childless, and alone. All I had left was my job.

Maybe it was time to be a little bad?

Seductive choices pulled me over into darkness and I no longer had to pretend. The escape was addictive as recklessness marred my skin and desperate decisions led me into the arms of unknown danger. The hardest part was knowing whether they would save me, or destroy me. Because their destruction was beginning to taste like salvation and I didn’t know if I could walk away.


After all, the sweetest lie was the one you told yourself, especially when the truth was the most dangerous confession of all.

I thought I was safe surrounded by my fated mates and Gavin.

Boy, was I wrong.

Who I once thought was nothing more than an over-inflated bimbo turned out to be the devil in disguise. Determined to destroy my very existence.

She’s tried to kill me more than once. No shocker there. And even as death has knocked on my door, I haven’t succumbed to his whispered promises of peace.

But as we lick our wounds, our enemies go into hiding, waiting for the opportune time to strike. Again.

They threaten my happily-ever-after with the three guys I’ve given my heart to while that same damn organ pulls me in the direction of the one it shouldn’t.

Stupid heart. You’d think it would be smarter than this.

But things change, just like people do.

When we finally start to come together as a pack, our enemies return; our ultimate demise in their sights.


But they obviously haven’t learned yet that I’m Haylee fucking Storm, Mafia heir, and their worst nightmare.

After he left town years ago I thought that was it for me, especially in this small town where everyone has met their love and married them by the time they are thirty. My life revolves around working at my best friend’s bookstore. But then fate throws me a curveball and she walks in; the new girl in town. She’s young, beautiful, adventurous, and everything I never knew I wanted or needed. Who would have guessed that when our date ends in disaster we would be catapulted into a whirlwind romance?

This might very well be my happily ever after. But luck once again isn’t on my side when he comes back to town. The one who held my heart for so long only to toss it away like it was nothing.

Why he’s back and the secret that reveals itself wasn’t even on my radar. But fate is a cruel creature and we don’t always know what she has planned for us. Is my current relationship strong enough to withstand this ripple in plans, or is there a new future ahead?

Growing up in the family business, where being an alpha is power, my parents groomed me to be the fiercest of them all. Being the head of the Storm family empire isn’t just my birthright, it’s my legacy, my namesake.

But Fate is a cruel mistress with a sick sense of humor. The morning of my 18th birthday, rather than waking as the alpha I was prepared to be, I found out ... I’m an omega.

For three years my parents hid me away, but when an attempt is made on their lives, the secrets they kept hidden—my secret—is revealed.

My bodyguard spirits me away only to come face to face with Fate's cruelest joke yet. My fated mates.

The leaders of the Andoneli crime family.

My omega side desires their touch, their attention and their knots. My heart, though, beats for my bodyguard.

Between rejection, threats, and kidnapping attempts, it’s getting harder to stay positive that I’ll come out on top.

Society says omegas should spread their legs, take a knot, and pump out pups. Fuck that. I clawed my way to the top, dragging my dreams out of a world that told me I wasn’t allowed to have them. I trained harder, worked longer, and ignored every asshole alpha who thought I was better suited for a breeding program than a surgical suite. I became a surgeon. And not just a good one—a damn great one.

Then one unhinged alpha in rut turned me into a punching bag, and suddenly my entire career was gone. Fired. A fucking liability.

Enter the Vasiliev Pack.

It starts with me patching one of them up. But what should’ve been a professional favor turns into a whole fucking mess when their scents wrap around me, and my biology betrays they’re my scent match. Not one alpha, not two—but an entire goddamn pack. Oh and did I mention they already have an omega?

And how do they handle it?

They kidnap me.

Too bad for them, I’m not some wilting little omega. And too bad for me, our lives are more tangled than any of us realize. My past is hunting me, my future is on fire, and when my monster ex comes calling, the Vasilievs do the unthinkable—they let me go.

Right into his hands.

I fought my way out once, but this time? I don’t think I’m strong enough to survive it without them. But here’s the thing about being if they don’t want me, they sure as hell don’t get to own me.

Because I’m knot their omega anymore.

Murder, mayhem, and enough steam to melt your e-reader. If you like feral, possessive alphas with filthy mouths, MM goodness, and a messy found family dynamic, strap in. This ride’s wild, unhinged, and hotter than hell. 😘]]>

The bonds between me and my guys have grown stronger, deeper, more twisted. Our magick intertwines in ways that defy explanation.

But our connection has unleashed something dark. Ancient. Hungry.

Whispers of a forgotten ritual echo through the academy's halls. A ritual that could grant unimaginable power � or destroy us all.

My wild magick is spiralling out of control, responding to their darkness in ways I never imagined. I'm losing myself in them, in the intoxicating blend of danger and desire they offer.

But we're not the only ones after the ritual's power. Enemies lurk in the shadows, some wearing friendly faces. Trust becomes a luxury I can't afford.

As the lines between love and obsession blur, I have to ask am I strong enough to control the chaos we've unleashed? Or will I succumb to the darkness?

So good. This is the second book in the Bad Wolves series. So happy to be back with Ren. Really love her as main character. Story continues on from where we left off in book 1. Absolutely love the guys. Storyline is just as good as previous book. Thrilled that there is an another book coming. So yes does end on a cliffhanger. So cannot wait for it. Definitely recommend reading!!!

<![CDATA[Sinful Blaze (Chekhov Bratva #1)]]> 216053239 What’s worse than catching your boyfriend cheating?
Coming to work the next day and seeing him with the other woman.

I curate art for a living.
This big show was supposed to pay my bills for the next year.
Oh, and did I mention the star artist is my unfaithful ex?

So I try to put on a brave face—after all, the clientele are worth billions.
But my ex is doing everything in his power to rub it in.
Holding his new girl a little too tight.
Hanging around me a little too close.

What I did next was a teensy bit
I grabbed the closest revenge hookup I could find...
Who just happened to be the billionaire dropping five mil at the auction.

Kissing him was bad.
The night that followed was worse (in the best way possible).
But after that, it looked like I might actually get my happily-ever-after�
Until he finds out that I'm pregnant with his baby.

SINFUL BLAZE is the first book in the Chekhov Bratva duet. Pasha and Daphne’s story continues in the second and final book, SINFUL BRIDE.

The things she believed about scent matching all these years? They couldn’t be more wrong. These men who stumbled into her life pass no judgment, offer their unconditional support, and want nothing more than to see her smile.

Now, the hardest part is in front of healing the past she did everything in her power to block out. If she could manage to let down her walls, happiness might be possible. But that also means believing what she never thought she could. That maybe, just maybe, these men were created to love her in a way no one else could. The way she was meant to be loved.

Her father's not.
And if I have it my way, we'll never see him again.

Because Matvey Groza stomped my heart to smithereens.
It went pretty much like
"I love you."
"I'm marrying someone else."

I'm paraphrasing, but not by much.
Because some facts are undeniable.

Matvey got me pregnant. FACT.
I'm just now starting labor. FACT.
But Matvey is nowhere to be found. FACT.
Because he's busy getting married...
To the other woman he knocked up. FACT.

He said there's more at play than I could understand, but what's so hard to understand about that?
He swore he'd be there for me, and he's not.
He said he loved me, but he doesn't.

So I'm taking our baby and I'm running.
Let him try to catch us if he can.

Pack Obsession 211977711
For ten years, I’ve lived by three rules—stay quiet, stay hidden, and don’t make a sound. But I let myself believe I was finally safe, and now I’m running for my life in the pouring rain.

In a world where Omegas are sought-after prizes, I thought I’d mastered survival. Until masked Alphas catch me, each as dangerous as they are sinful. They’re retrievers, men who steal back what was wrongfully taken, and they make me an offer I can’t refuse—help them with a heist, or they’ll turn me over to my toxic ex.

I never meant to get caught up in their world of dangerous games. Never meant to uncover secrets better left buried. But with my danger approaching and my past closing in, I’m running out of options and people to trust.

Some rules are meant to be broken. I just hope these don’t get me killed.

Pack Obsession is a STANDALONE BOOK. It's contemporary romance featuring touch-her-and-die, forced proximity, found family, and protective men who blur the lines between right and wrong. Contains morally gray characters, possessive themes, and intense situations.]]>

Granger falling from the sky, and me not being able to save him, was one of the worst feelings in the world. But all that changes when I meet the storm dragon at last.

Now, my harem is complete.

Life could be perfect, if not for the pack of dangerous dragons who still want me for their own.

In this new world, I could be a queen or a prisoner. But I’ll be damned if I don’t end up as the alpha dragon female to rule over them all.

SURGE OF STORMS is the fourth and final book in a very steamy paranormal reverse harem romance. This book has so much yummy goodness, but I don’t want to spoil it.]]>

<![CDATA[Cashmere Cruelty (Groza Bratva, #1)]]> 220793644 When is the worst time to tell someone he’s going to be a father?
Probably the day of the wedding�
When he is getting married to someone else.

Well, that is exactly what I did.
But my hands were tied.
Literally.

Matvey Groza is a dangerous man.
And nine months ago, he strolled into my shop looking for a custom suit.
But when I accidentally walked in on him in the changing room,
*I* was the one that ended up needing a new set of clothes.

It was a one-time mistake.
After that� good riddance.

But the pregnancy test I took a month later had other plans.

I kept it a secret from everyone.
Or so I thought.
But when Matvey’s enemies learned that I was pregnant with his child,
they kidnapped me and held me hostage.

Until I broke free and ran as fast as I could.
And I had no one else to turn to but the devil himself.

What better time for me to enter the church�
� than as the pastor says, “Speak now or forever hold your peace"?

Whisper my name three times in a mirror, and I rise again: Bellonna, a deadly beauty with fire in her heart, bound by vengeance. I’m the spirit they never saw coming—and I’m here to make them pay.

People say that showing mercy makes you strong, but I know otherwise. Mercy only brings pain. It shows that you’re weak—that others can touch you without consequence.

I gave mercy once. I won't make that mistake again.

Married With Malice 217905829 An alliance between two legendary mafia families just like in the old days.
But when my sweet, beautiful older sister fell for a civilian and eloped in spite of our father’s edict, mafia mayhem ensued.
Now, to save my sister and her clueless new husband from a date with a Cosa Nostra executioner, I’m taking her place.
No doubt everyone would have preferred the alternative bride. Especially the groom.
Luca Connelly. Master manipulator. Crown prince of his uncle’s blood-splattered empire.
And my nemesis since high school.
Luca, with his charm and muscle and sinful looks, believes the world is his for the taking.
He might be right.
Luca is good at fooling everyone else. However, he’ll never fool me.
He’s still the same callous, arrogant villain who used to delight in my torment.
Not that I’m innocent. The scorching hostility between us is completely mutual.
Too bad there are a few things I didn’t count on.
Like the way I can’t get enough of his touch.
Or how I keep coming back for more no matter how volatile we are together.
I know this is no recipe for a happy marriage.
But the closer I get to Luca, the more the lines get blurred.
My mistake was to assume that I was in full control.

MistHallow Academy will be my sanctuary, a place to hide from my family's sinister plans for my wild magick.


That was the plan, anyway. But instead, I've stumbled into a web of dark desires and deadly secrets.

They're everywhere � in my classes, my dreams, my blood. Three men, each more dangerous than the last, circling me like predators stalking prey.

the dark warlock TA, whose blue eyes promise pleasure with an emphasis on pain. His rune-marked skin screams danger, and I can't look away.

Luc: the half incubus, half pure blood demon royalty whose taste for blood is for pleasure rather than survival. He craves the chaos of my untamed power but his hatred for his half brother, Draven, is unmatched.

the necromancer whose touch brings shivers of fear and excitement. Behind those too-blue eyes lurk ambitions that could shatter the boundary between life and death.

I should run, but their pull is irresistible. With every lesson in dark magick, every forbidden touch, I'm drawn deeper into their world. My power responds to them, growing stronger, more unpredictable, and is the key to unravelling ancient curses and unleashing forces beyond our control.

At MistHallow, lessons aren't just dangerous � they're deadly. I'm about to get a crash course in survival.

If you like fast burn, insta-lust, insta-possessiveness from the MMCs, an FMC with backbone, witty banter, and guys that put aside their differences for the woman they want, then this is definitely a must-read.

This is a dark paranormal romance book 1 out of 3 in a brand new reverse harem romance by USA Today Bestselling Author, Eve Newton. Set in England and written in British English, you will come across TWs so please see inside for details.]]>

<![CDATA[Rebel Revenge (Saint View Rebels, #1)]]> 62253714
They were the last words my mother heard before she collapsed on the church steps, poison ending her pitifully short life.

When her new husband dies minutes later, all eyes turn to me.

There are whispers. Accusations. The verdict is split.

I murdered them both.

Or I'm the next to die.

To catch a killer, I move myself into my new stepbrother's house in the fancy town of Providence. With its million-dollar mansions and ocean views, it's a far cry from the seedy Saint View underbelly I grew up in.

But my new life delivers more than I ever could have bargained for and three men I never saw coming.

Fang, the biker gang enforcer everyone is terrified of. Everyone, but me. When he finds the bruises I've been hiding, he swears to stand by my side while I have my revenge on the men who hurt me.

Vaughn, my cocky new stepbrother. The way he looks at me is anything but brotherly. With half his dad's fortune left to me, we might both be searching for the murderer, but he's my prime suspect.

And Kian, my new roommate and Vaughn's enemy. The streetfighter is funny and sweet, but violence darkens his eyes when he hears about my past. Hiding secrets of his own, he joins the hunt.

With every lie we uncover, every secret we expose, the danger mounts.

Until there's only one thing we know for sure.

The killer is still out there.

And we're his next targets.

Rebel Revenge is an adult, #whychoose romance, meaning the main character has more than one love interest. This book contains romantic suspense and dark themes that may trigger some readers. It is the first book in an ongoing trilogy.]]>

<![CDATA[The Butcher (Fifth Republic #1)]]> 221784786 because he didn’t have the balls to do it himself.

I move out and get a new apartment, a job as a bartender, and try to move on with a broken heart. I wonder where it all went wrong, if I hadn’t been enough for him, if I’d been stupid for marrying him in the first place.

I’m at work one night when he walks inside�the most beautiful man I’ve ever seen. He sits at the bar and a forest fire burns between us. I was depressed the moment before he entered, but the second I look at his blue eyes, I forget the dumpster fire that my life has become. I invite him back to my place and it’s the most passionate night of my life. I expect to never see him again.

I just want him as an anti-depressant—but he wants me all to himself. I just got my heart ripped out of my chest so I want something easy and no-strings-attached, but he wants all the strings because he’s hooked.

I don’t get much of a say in the matter, and that’s not surprising when I learn why—because he’s the Butcher. The crime lord of all crime lords, the boss that overshadows all of Paris, that makes everyone abide by his rules—or pay.

And now I’m his.]]>

<![CDATA[The Omega Game (Billionaires in Heat #4)]]> 209698763 It’s hard being a beta boxer in an alpha world, especially when you have so much to lose.

As a female boxer, and a beta to boot, I’ve had to dig deep for every win, train harder than every opponent, and ignore the naysayers along the way.

I’m just starting to make my mark when I lose an easy match, and my manager says I need to overhaul my image. Sponsors are losing interest, and I’m struggling to keep my dad’s gym afloat. I’ll do anything to keep his dream alive, even attend the grand opening of a new sports club so people can rub shoulders with a professional boxer.

But that night changes a lot of things. Not only do I find out my ex � a famous polo-playing billionaire � owns the club, but the international rugby team is in town. My bruised and battered face fires up their protective alpha instincts, and I’m suddenly triggered by a switch.

Even though I pride myself on my control, my hidden omega nature takes over, hungry for knots, bites, and a pack of my own.

I always thought switches were a beta fantasy. But now I have three alphas, a beta best friend, and a stunning omega male all vying to see me through my heat. Maybe it’s a fairytale for some girls, but this changes everything.

Because while being a beta boxer was hard, the world will never accept an omega in the ring.

Which means I have to choose.

But do I fight for the pack who wants me, or for the win I always wanted for myself?

This is the fourth steamy standalone in the Billionaires in Heat series but can be read as a standalone. It includes all the omegaverse delights of pack bonds, bites, messy heats and alpha knots. There are NO shifters in this story. Check the TWs in the Author's Note.

<![CDATA[The Omega Verse (Billionaires in Heat #3)]]> 199493549 Every famous love song has been written by an alpha for an omega.

As a beta, I’ve never expected to be anyone’s muse. I’m happy to stick in the background � and with a past like mine, it’s simply safer avoiding the spotlight.

But that changes the day I learn my long-lost brother is Stix Rain. The drummer for one of the biggest rock bands in the world, we lost touch when we went into foster care. He ran away, I stayed, and I still carry the scars from growing up alone.

I have so many questions for him � until I discover he died three months ago.

I’m desperate to know more about him, but my only chance to meet his bandmates is at his tribute concert. The same concert where I get rained on, mugged, and the lead singer accuses me of being a tragedy chasing groupie.

But earning the trust of a bunch of moody, grieving rockstars isn’t my biggest problem. Because I’m suddenly triggered by a switch and my hidden omega nature takes over, hungry for knots, and bites, and a pack of my own.

Now I’m on a tour bus in the middle of nowhere, and I’m hot and needy for my brother’s best friends.

But helping me through my first ever omega heat is just the start of it.

Because someone is trying to destroy the band, and I now have an impossible choice to make.

I can either sacrifice my brother’s legacy, or walk away from the only pack I’ve ever wanted.

The Omega Verse is a standalone in the Billionaires in Heat series.
