When environmental activist Nova Morales wakes thousands of years after a nuclear fallout, she is surrounded by magic, monsters, and war.

All she wants is to find answers, but instead, she finds herself the unwilling prize in an Unseelie mate hunt. Elf Guardian Leaf has always prioritized duty to the Well. His fate is his own, despite what the Prime and that insufferable psychic Clarke say about him being fated to a human from the old world.

Looking for adventure, I followed a hunch. It got me kidnapped and taken aboard a ghost ship with a kraken for a captain. How could I have guessed magic was real? Or that I was born to wield it? Will these fated mates find their way to happily ever after? Or will secrets force them apart?

First, I was broke down alongside an icy road in the middle of nowhere, divorced, and homeless with two small children. Then, four gorgeous men took me and my kids in. They gave me an incredible job, an over-the-top mansion, and...a baby.

I never wanted to be a cowboy - living in a small town was suffocating. The military was my out. I saw every place I ever wanted and everything that nightmares are made of...until I almost lost my life and ended up back home.

I was the ultimate bachelor. I enjoyed my wild life, the late nights, and the fact that I had no commitments. My job and my freedom were all I needed. Or so I thought. Chloe was sweet and kind, and the way she got so flustered in my presence was adorable. That smile of hers did things to a man. And her laugh? It was infectious. She had this gravitating pull that was irresistible.

As his career path led him into more and more danger, Calum made a decision to keep his family safe, even if it meant he would be alone in the world. But when his wife and son are kidnapped and dumped almost into his very own secret headquarters, Calum knows his safeguards haven’t been enough. Mariana didn’t like Calum’s decision from years ago but finally understood after her and her son are rescued from kidnappers, and she saw the dangerous level of his work.

Lachlan is delighted to be picked by Tesla to help her friend out in Germany on a sensitive joint operation. Yet, when he finds out what’s involved, he’s shocked and intrigued.

When her department is asked to help in a joint task force, she’s afraid she’s in over her head. As the bodies pile up, Lachlan realizes this is more about keeping Leah safe and less about helping Tesla out.

There she lay in all her glory...it was her: Dalia from the Wild. As she lay upon the manicured turf eating a fresh peach under a heavy tree, my mouth salivated as she sexily consumed her delicacy.

Sierra Fox showed up at my door to ask for my protection, and I gave it to her...for a price. She belongs to me now, and I'm going to use her beautiful body as thoroughly as I please. The only thing for her to decide is how sore her cute little bottom will be when I'm through claiming her. She came to me begging for help, but as her moans and screams grow louder with every brutal climax, we both know that it won't be long before she begs me for something far more shameful.

I took her to settle a score. Then I claimed her as mine. Valencia Rivera became mine the moment her father broke the agreement he made with me. She thought she had a say in the matter, but my belt across her beautiful bottom taught her otherwise and a night spent screaming her surrender into the sheets left her in no doubt she belongs to me. Using her hard and often will not be all it takes to tame her properly, but it will be a good start....

Rhys hadn’t expected a trip to Cottage Grove, Oregon to start with a house being shot. If it had stopped there, it would have been manageable. A drive-by shooting that the cops should be able to chase down. But nothing was easy in his world. Taylor, an army vet herself, was struggling to regain a normal life after an injured while serving. Taking on a war dog appealed, as it gave her a connection, but she had to pass some kind of interview before she could keep Tallahassee. An interview with someone with a prosthetic just like hers. Only he was far more capable than she was.

Michael Kane arrives in New Orleans in search of his missing sister. Although he does not find her, he does, in fact, find his mate. She is a shifter, a member of the pack of wolf shifters who, until recently, hid his sister from Michael's father, Kendrick Kane. But Scarlett Knoll is not like any other wolf-shifter Michael has ever met, and Michael realizes quickly that it won't be a fast courtship to win the heart of the lady he has waited more than 200 years to meet.

When several members of a search-and-rescue team die in an accident, followed by several more team members who are murdered, Jace is ordered to sort it out. Working for a large insurance company had always been great for Emily, until she is handed several files all from the same family. Men she knew...intimately. Afraid that there is too much going on in the background, she contacts Legendary Securities for help. As the investigation develops, more bodies turn up, along with jealousy, greed, and insurance payouts that just maybe shouldn’t have been paid.

Everyone has the right to make a mistake...but the one Naira made isn’t one Scott can forgive. He wakes from a coma, sure that the ex-love of his life had been at his side, but finds no sign of her. When he does see her, he can’t get past a decision she made that tore them apart. Naira had hoped that Scott would protest her decision way back when, but he didn’t say anything to stop her. When Terk called, she came running to Scott’s bedside, even knowing he’d hate to see her when he woke up. But she has always loved him and can only hope he might find his way back to her.

I was forced to volunteer. Transported to an alien world. Stolen by an alien pirate. I must integrate to gain my freedom.

The day my human self died in a watery grave, my inner wolf took over to protect me. For two hundred years, I lived, hunted, and survived as a lone wolf. Then a voice spoke to me through the wildness in my head, calling me to him. A voice I can't deny. The voice of my true mate. He wants to claim me in the way of our traditions, but I fear him. I was claimed once before by a false mate, and it led to centuries of pain and suffering. I can't trust this new mate or the modern world he wants me to live in. So I'll hide behind the protection of my wolf until I can escape.

For centuries, we have hidden our feral nature, our brute strength, and our carnal instincts. Now, when the savagery of one of our kind risks exposing us all, we should be even more circumspect. But this human is my mate, and nothing will keep me from claiming and ravaging her. She is mine to tame and protect, and if my belt doesn't teach her to obey, then she'll learn her place in a much more shameful fashion. Either way, her surrender will be as complete as it is inevitable.
