Money can’t buy happiness, but neither can pride...Julianna Magnusson is tired of working her tail off at her thankless job as a nurse practitioner for the cardiac unit at Rutherford Hospital. Tired of having little to no time for her own life. But most of all, she’s tired of pretending that she’s happy about it all. So when her boss insists she attend the annual hospital charity gala, spending a ton of money on a dress to impress a bunch of stuck-up snobs doesn’t exactly sound like her idea of a good time.

Losing her nearly destroyed me. Reclaiming her is something I've waited years for. I can see it in her eyes, feel it in her touch. The desire, the temptation, she needs me just as much as I need her. But there's something else there, defiance. She’s never forgotten me, after all this time, but has she forgiven me? Turns out she's forgetting one thing...she’s mine. I'm not letting go this time.

Once upon a time there was a middle-aged woman that, having been left unsatisfied by human men one too many times, decided to move to the mountains of Grimlake where monsters roamed. Her plan, though poorly laid out, was to seduce the first creature she came across and finally live out her fantasy. Unfortunately for our heroine, she took the wrong trail down to the village and found herself lost in the winter forest.

I am not supposed to exist—my parents murdered for their forbidden union. I’m a creature born of light and dark, of Heaven and Hell, and it's up to me to hold these fragile worlds together. And I’m back here, where I never thought I’d be, surrounded by devastatingly handsome males who’d give their lives for me. And all I want to do is go home, back to earth, but the balance has been threatened and I’m the only one who can set it right.

Two years ago, everything changed for the remaining members of the Seattle rock band Tempest. Two years is a long time. Too long to keep on remembering. Not nearly long enough to forget. In trouble, with nowhere else to go, songstress Lace Lowell seeks refuge with the band during their stop in New York City.

As Calla’s relationship with the vampires who laid claim to her continues to grow, they are faced with their biggest obstacle yet—her mortality. And when vampires are outed on national television, putting all of their lives at risk, the lines between right and wrong become blurred as they must devise a plan to protect their own. Despite the looming danger, Calla can’t help falling deeper for the vampires who she’s come to learn have more to them than the blood oath that brought them to her. On the brink of war with both hunters and ancient vampires, they must pick a side.

Corrupting angels should be fun. But damn it. It’s more soul-crushing and infuriating work than I expected. Especially when Lucifer, a.k.a. Lucian, is a lying sack of demon guts and would much prefer to rule Hell alone.

Purgatory is mine. I'll do whatever it takes to ensure humanity finds the balance it deserves. With the seven sinners and the most notorious devil by my side, we can change the world. No, not only the world. The entire universe. We have to. Our futures depend on it. The angelic army plans to reset everything, bringing on the End of Times.

Just because Giselle’s two best friends fell in love with alien hybrids and are now living their happily ever after’s in the King’s compound doesn’t mean Giselle feels left out.... Sure they’ve got their adorable little half-alien winged babies and are happier than they’ve ever been but Giselle has a high-powered job and a full calendar of charity work and she’s...happy. Really. The positive affirmations she reads to herself every morning tell her so.

My teacher is trying to kill me. My mates and I are on the run while trying to figure out why our professor wants me dead. Not exactly the punishment I expected for botching an assignment. To get our happy end on a luxury resort planet, we may have to do the one thing I don't want my mates to do: abduct another alien. When the abductee becomes the abductor, something is seriously wrong with the universe.

We spent 11 hours trapped in that elevator. Now that we're safe, he wants to know how compatible we really are...and if I can be as good for him as I claim.

I had no idea how much I wanted to take Purgatory's throne and rule Hell with the Seven Sinners. Too bad the most notorious devil would prefer to rule alone. If only that was the worst of it. My soulmate’s health declines, and I must kill him to guide his soul to Hell and help him take his throne. How can I murder the one who is responsible for my angel-kissed soul? I don’t have a choice, though.

I didn’t know I had a sister until I walked into a crime scene and saw my own lifeless face staring back at me. Horrified, I still did my job and collected evidence to nail the men responsible.

The Balance has been irrevocably altered, and I’ve found myself in the clutches of a blood mage. One that I find myself drawn to in more ways than one. I didn’t think it possible. Another mate? I could barely handle the three I already had. Our bond circle is tested as the true enemy emerges from the shadows. We must fight together as one or we will all fall. The fate of the world lies in my hands. Alone, I’m not powerful enough to save it. Can I depend on my mates to get along and join together to fight against the evil threatening us?

Hades messed up. It's his fault the Lady of the Underworld left...again. The guy just can't keep a good goddess down. But the Lord of the Dead can't mope about the Underworld while it tears apart. Breaches in the fabric of the afterlife have allowed souls to escape and return to their lives. Something is wrong, and Hades needs Autumn's help for her to become the death goddess to figure it out.

Craving her was wrong...losing her was a necessity. What we had was real, but it's over. Ancient history. She was under my skin, but I was under her dad's roof. He warned me to stay away, but I couldn't. We risked everything, and I lost it all, to protect us both. Now I'm empty, and it's all too clear what's missing. Or, rather, who. None of the women who warm my bed can ever fill the void inside my shattered heart.

The Reign Deer Games are held every three hundred years to replace Santa's sleigh drivers. This is followed by The Great Rut, where reindeer shifters hope to find their one true mate—or mates.

From the moment she moved in a few houses down, I couldn’t keep my eyes off of her. The way her body moved, the light that shined from inside of her, her raw sex appeal without even trying. Lucky for me, her friend and coworker was one of my closest friends. An invitation to my club, The Den, led to a masked intimate encounter in a maintenance closet. That’s all it took for me to know she was the one for me.

She was promised to us before she was born... Now we've come to collect. Crimson Bound explores the events from Bound in Crimson from the POVs of Atlas, Kade, Gabriel, and Lex.
