Cyan. One second, I’m battling an overgrown hedge with a pair of clippers. The next, I’m running for my life, positive I’ve stumbled onto a prank reality show set, complete with a towering, red-haired guy in costume who throws me over his shoulder like I weigh nothing - I’m a big girl, never been thin.

I rescue a helpless human, only to discover this curvy, tempting morsel is an Omega about to send me into a rut.

An unexpected confession from my husband has left me reeling. How can I trust him after everything he's put me through? This feels like one more layer in his sadistic game. I can't let his secret matter, not when I'm so close to claiming the empire and setting all its horrors right with the princes I love by my side.

I'd been running from my past when I stumbled into the small town of Sutten Mountain, tired and alone. That's where I met a broken single dad and his adorable daughter.

Betrayed. Not just by our allies, but by the dark goddess who sent me on this doomed mission in the first place. Now, my monsters and I are prisoners of the dark fae warlord, pawns in his endless war games. But nothing in Midnight is ever what it seems. Not the warlord. Not our enemies.

She’s my employee. I’m her boss’ boss. Hell, I own the company. Pursuing Lillian Burkette was a line I shouldn’t cross. Until a work trip from hell changed everything.

When they say the corporate world is a jungle...they have no idea.

After Kate’s world had shattered into pieces, she pushed everyone away, including Trent, and hid. She knew she couldn’t hide forever. So, in an effort to move forward, she built castle-strong walls to hide behind, walls that Trent had every intention of tearing down. Embarrassed and ashamed that her secrets were now out in the open, she was reluctant to let Trent back into her life. His refusal to allow her to continue to push him away had her heart shifting in a way she wasn’t prepared for. Trent wasn’t prepared to feel the same shift in his heart either.

We had one night together, and most days I convince myself that she was an apparition - something I made up in my mind to get me through the hard days. Then I found her again. Only she wasn't happy and smiling, giving me a hard time like she did the day we met. She was broken...unseeing eyes no longer filled with life. She was gone because of another person's disregard for human life.
