Ember Verona's immortal life is a mess. Her best friend just got out of prison and, like the rest of their sistren, wants nothing to do with her. The swords that gave the guardians of Orphium their parapsych powers have been missing for hundreds of years. Nothing seems able to change that, or to put the Orphium Maere back together again. Until Ares Necroline, the leader of Orphium's necromancers, tips Ember off to the swords' location. They are up for auction at the National Gallery's annual Gala. Can Ember get the swords and her sistren back before tipping off the Authority?

Gray Bowie broke the bro code: he fell in love with his best friend's girlfriend. And he did a great job of hiding his feelings . . . until it all came to a head. That night, he lost both of them. Since her life blew up in high school, Knox Holliday has spent her time honing her skills as a couture wedding dress designer. But, just weeks before her debut, a freak accident wipes out her collection. The culprit: her ex's former best friend, Gray Bowie.

My teammates can't know how much she tempts me. Her brother certainly can't know the things I'm imagining doing to her. We'll both keep pretending we're just having fun, even when she winds up sharing my bed in secret. We both agree it's harmless. Just casual. But when her old life comes calling, will I keep pretending, or will I put it all on the line?

I heard the stories about Savage Ax. They're whispered among vampires everywhere in the Hidden Realm. He's dangerous, merciless, a predator even among monsters…but nobody told me that he was dangerously sexy, too. Now, on top of having to go searching for a vampire out there in the human world infested with sorcerers, I have to do it with him by my side.

I had no idea how beautiful and terrifying my life was about to become. Living as an independent artist in New York, I was soon faced with the new knowledge of my powers, a curse, and how bonding with five sexy-as-sin supernaturals would break that curse. One by one they found me—Fae, Warlock, Demon, Wolf shifter, Vampire. I'm their mate. Their equal. Their perfect match. The one to unbind them from their curse. Heart, body, and soul, I'm meant to be theirs. Theirs to share. Theirs to love.

After two years of culinary grind, I was about to land my dream job. Nothing, absolutely nothing, could dampen my spirits. Or so I thought... until fate decided to hit me with a dirty little plot twist. My cozy, one-bedroom cabin rental is double-booked. With whom, you ask? None other than my ex, the NHL star with a knack for making headlines from his off-field conquests since we called it quits.

Our plan? Fake an engagement, have a showy wedding, solve our little problems, then amicably split. It's simple: I keep my B&B, and he shows his team he's serious about cleaning up his act. Perfect, right? But Jake doesn't know how to do things by halves.

I will have to use all my intelligence training to solve the murder of my father and clear my brother’s name. My brother hired Kennedy Greyson, lawyer extraordinaire and my bonded spirit, to defend the family.

Serena is my bonded spirit. The first time I saw Serena I was mesmerized by the water nymph playing naked in the stream. I knew immediately that she was mine. As a human, she’s not aware of my lion. I make plans to share my secret and propose. Taking her to my favorite spot in the hills for a special date. But before I can claim her as my own, my father is murdered, and I become the prime suspect. They have issued a warrant for my arrest. My brothers convinced me to hide in the wilderness while they work to find the killer.

As the investigation into his father’s death continues, Cash arrives at River Run in Colorado to buy a rare bull. The moment he hears Evie’s voice he knows she is his bonded spirit. He’ll pay her asking price with the addition of one thing...her.

Cade Waverly, a retired Delta Forces commander, is having a bad day. His father, Cyrus, has been murdered, which is probably the highlight of his morning. The secret he is keeping from Trey is the real cause of his bad mood. Trey Mitchell’s day isn’t much better. She’s been ordered to investigate Cyrus’ death. The list of suspects is long and includes the love of her life—Cade as well as his brothers and Cyrus’ trophy wife. All of them had a reason to kill Cyrus ,and the only witnesses aren’t talking.

Cade Waverly is a decorated member of Delta Force. He has come back to his small town in the Idaho Panhandle to lay his mother to rest. Trey Mitchell is the self-assured girl next door who has loved him for as long as she can remember. After a night of secret and undeniable passion, Cade leaves her sleeping in order to return to his unit and to keep her safe from the dangers that lurk everywhere in Looking Glass Falls. Their paths cross 10 years later. Can they work together to solve a murder before they lose everything?

They were right. The stronger our bonds grow; the closer evil gets. I've fallen for a charming Fae, protective Warlock, and a tempting Demon, all with sculpted bodies made for sin. Our bonds are only the beginning.

I ran from the altar only to land in the arms… ahem… bed of my ridiculously hot ex. Now he's a crazy rich single dad, and the reason for my baby bump. That night, I entered the bar looking like a runaway bride cliché with only five bucks stuffed in my bra. "You look like you need a drink," Oliver says in a voice deeper and huskier than I remember. A few shots later, and all I want is his body driving me wild like only he can. The next morning, as the haze lifts, I remember the shocking reason we broke up all those years ago and why it could never work between us.

All we had to do was make it through the weekend. It should've been a breeze. A tattoo convention in Cancún with Toni Valentine, the toughest and sexiest tattoo artist in the world? It was a dream come true. It was my chance to show her how I'd grown. I came to work for her when I was just some kid from LA and she already had a spread in Maxim and a successful video stream, but over the past three years, we've gotten close. And I had plans for us to get even closer.

I will never work for Franklin Wolfe. Period. But just like any other person in the city of Boston, I don't stand a chance against the leader of the Boston Wolfes. He's canny. Confident. A natural-born leader who controls the city, with endless green eyes that compel anyone to agree with his wishes in a heartbeat. Including me.

Lana: I’ve done everything right. Playing the part of the demure famiglia daughter, hiding my pain beneath makeup and pretty dresses. But marrying a man 10 years my senior? Whose words cut like knives and lips taste like poison? This is the one thing I can’t do. Naz: I’ve done nothing right. I’m not a virtuous man; I balance on the line between light and dark. My past is littered with sins. Each of them haunts me. I’m not worthy of the angel with long hair and hazel eyes. And yet, I’d burn the city to the ground to hold her in my arms. What’s a sinner to do?

This is the complete series of Aubrey and Bennet. It features the two falling in love on the small town fictional street of Cedar Lane over and over again while the real world has had other plans for them. Because love is endless and this is what forever means. In any and every life, their love was meant to be.

The evil that hunts us tried to break Phoenix-to destroy our chance of bonding. No longer the breathtaking, dangerous, vampire he was, he's become a monster lost to bloodlust. As strong as my heart beats for him, I know I can fix him. I can bring him back to us. I'll accept the risks, knowing my blood is what he craves most.

I made a deal with a sorcerer. I'll help him stop an evil nobody even knows exists yet. In exchange, he'll set me free of the monster that lives inside me. Sounds like a sweet deal, right? I thought so, but there's one thing I forgot to think about: Ax Creed.
