All my life, I wanted to be loved. Instead, I was ignored. My father gave me what I wanted so he could go back to ignoring me. Once I understood that, life became easier. When he arranged to marry me off to the son of his biggest ally, I didn't mind. Marco was the older brother of my best friend, and honestly, he made me burn.

I broke the code—touched my best friend's sister. Broke her heart—left her behind with my baby. Broke myself—became the monster I swore I'd never be. Six months in Russian hell turned me into Shakal. The Jackal. The one who laughs while bones snap. The one who kills for the Bratva crest on his chest. My dying best friend made me swear: Protect Vanya. Blood oath sealed in his last breath. Now she owns my nights. And I own the secret she's hiding.

This isn't what we wanted. Sherwood is splintering. People are suspicious, angry, violent, and they blame us for the chaos: me and my four shifters. We wanted to save this place, but it might not want saving after all. And we just might end up as fractured as this place itself.

Kara has spent the last six years fighting the infected in the ruins of a broken world, searching for the one person who ever truly understood her. Wade was her only friend growing up in the foster system, the one steady thing in a life built on instability. When the world collapsed, she thought she'd lost him for good until the enemy dumped him at her doorstep, barely conscious and scarred from years in captivity. Helping him heal would be a challenge even if she weren't still in love with him.

My name is Luc Lenaghan, and I'm a man who knows mistakes. I'm especially skilled at making them. Bathing in them. Compounding them. But hell, being an expert in the matter means I know how to spot the opposite, too. Kari Macchio was the girl I met when she was only seven. We kissed when she was eighteen. We committed to each other when she was twenty-four. And we married when she was twenty-eight. Unfortunately, she was the woman I destroyed when she was thirty.

When the Velasco family's top hitwoman shows up in New York, I plan on finding out exactly why. Amalia might be gorgeous, as well as lethal, but if she's here to negotiate terms to use our ports for her family's filthy crimes? I don't need to hear what she has to say; it's a no. It will always be a no. But the longer I tail her—and the guard dog she brought along—the more I realize something's off.

Sam isn't sure where he belongs. A fisherman's son with hands more suited to painting than hauling traps, he's spent his life caught between two worlds—between land and water, duty and passion. He keeps to the tides, drifting through life unseen, unnoticed. His father doesn't recognize him half the time, his estranged brother has returned like he never left, and college is an uphill battle he isn't sure he can win. The only place that feels like home is his father's boat, where the world is quiet enough to think. Then Goldilocks arrives.

Three fae spies on the mission of their lives. One Fate-Touched slave they crave to possess. In a journey across worlds where humans exist for the pleasure of other creatures, will they protect their captive, or ensure her demise? I was brought to a slave outpost on a dying rock as a child. For years, I've kept my head down, hoping I'm not noticed. The new Masters never understand what I am, why I'm dangerous, or why they should leave me alone. But they learn. They learn, or they die. For I am Kismet. Fate-Touched. I can't be hurt without fate delivering swift punishment to those who harm me.

On the midwinter full moon, I am dragged by bandits from the only home I know and stood on a chair in a tavern under the gazes of despicable men bidding on my innocence. But then the shadowy figure in the corner calls out the winning offer, and I realize he is like no one I've ever seen before. Now I belong to Torvolk, Ranger of the Bloodfire Clan, and neither of us knows what this means. He's taken me through the pathway in the standing stones to his world, where I discovered naught is as it has always seemed.

In the next installment of the Destiny Series, Wyatt, Caleb, and Dom set out to find their mate who was stolen from them nearly a decade ago. Danger and death wait in the shadows, new enemies are rising up against the pack, and long-buried secrets are finally starting to come to light. As they fight to find the woman who was fated to be theirs, there is one thing they haven't considered…just how long can an angel survive without her wings?

All her life, Tessa has lived in the cruel shadow of the wicked fae on the hill. When she tried to fight back, she failed. Now, Tessa is trapped in the dungeons beneath Albyria and cursed to wed King Oberon. She’ll be bound to her enemy’s side for eternity if she does not escape. But someone far more dangerous haunts her dreams—the Mist King. He wants answers, but so does she.

Knowledge is power, or so they say. I'd wanted answers, but the cost was higher than I was prepared to pay. I'm supposed to be powerful, one of the last of my kind, yet I feel anything but. I've let down my friend. Someone who's never given up on me despite our differences and how crazy I might drive him. My bonds are strained, and the people I love keep getting hurt because of me. I won't keep letting that happen. No matter what it takes or who I have to turn to for help. They think Ryker is a monster, and maybe he is, but I'm not afraid of him.

Our worlds shouldn't cross. I'm a performer in the spotlight, and he's the monster people in the underworld fear most. He's someone who doesn't feel, let alone touch another person. The thought revolts him, so much so that he always wears gloves. So why can't I seem to stay away from him? And why is he able to touch only me?

The minute our commanding officers assign us to track down the Roth and missing human women, I know it's a setup. Just my huge husband, Aeroz, and me together in a small spaceship for however long it takes? Yeah. It's definitely a setup.

CIA Color Code Johnna Red's mission is clear. She must hunt down a terrorist who is carrying out deadly attacks all over the world before the diabolical woman can strike again. Getting distracted by her handsome Delta Force Echo partner is not an option. Maybe in a different life, they could've been something. But in this life? Impossible…

Orestes's father was killed, his clan dissolved, and now, it's snowing, which is the worst affront of all. The last scion of the ended Eagle clan, Orestes, is sent to frigid Urial to negotiate peace with King Albany, but the sitting monarch has no interest in him, and his son, Prince Tybalt, has too much.

Greer loves living life to the fullest, but everything changes when her vampire boyfriend loses control. The more supernatural blood someone has, the higher the chance of not surviving the change. Somehow, Greer does, but her awful ex compels her to keep his secret and orders her out of town. As a fae, she didn't even eat meat, and she certainly has no idea how to survive as a fledgling vampire.

My need for vengeance drove me into danger. I sought redemption for my past, determined to put an end to the conflict between the angels and dragons. Instead, I ignited a spark. Now, the angels are summoning their strongest warriors, and the dragons are preparing for war. A wildfire burns around me that could destroy the fragile seed of hope that Callan Steele planted in my heart. Even the flame he kindles within me can’t light the path I must walk.

My father handed me over to the Bratva. Now I belong to Luka Dubinin. Older. Colder. Sin in a tailored suit. He doesn't force my submission. He seduces it with silence and steel. Builds me a studio. Watches me dance. Burns me alive with every glance. I swore I'd never break. Never beg. Never love a man like him. But I crave his voice. His touch. His darkness. His power. He shields me with bullets. Loves me like war—violent and absolute. I should escape. Instead, I made a vow behind locked doors. Not of love. Not of freedom. But of surrender… and survival.

What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas… Until you wake up married to three dangerous silver fox bikers. My fiancé dumped me during my bachelorette party. So when three hot bikers offer to make me forget, I did what anyone would do—I rode them until sunrise. They gave me the wildest ride of my life. And forget I did. In fact, I have absolutely no memory of last night. All I know is I drunk-married three bikers twice my age.
