Josie has always been the ultimate forbidden fruit. When I first laid eyes on her, she was a tempting, wet dream that just appeared in my home. That sounds perfect, but she was there as my son's girlfriend. It also made her completely off limits. It still didn't stop me from tasting her. One touch, one taste wrapped up in a stolen moment that never should have happened marked me for life. She's my guilty secret that I've privately been obsessed with. I mean hell, it's been years and I still think about her. Now, she's back.

With a name like Sabrina, I embrace all things spooky. I love black cats, haunted houses, and crisp, fall nights that send a tingle down your spine. I never pass up a chance to celebrate Halloween, but at the dark and decadent costume party at Club Red, I might be in over my head, witch's hat and all. I've been to the male revue club before, but tonight it's full of dozens more men, mingling among the crowd, all of them so gorgeous it's scary.

Carsynn was the last thing I expected after coming home from being out of town for work. While I was gone, Gramps talked non stop about the new pretty waitress. It's not until I walk into the diner and see her with my own two eyes that I get it. She does too, judging by the way she blushes when I catch her watching my every move. When the cold weather turns suddenly, it's me out on the iced over roads rescuing the woman who has me dreaming of forever.

To save the dragons, we must save each other. It was supposed to be simple. Expose the truth, save the dragons. That was before we knew the perverted source of the priests’ power. The savage lengths our enemies will go to keep it. Our foes don’t want us dead. They want us broken. Love is our bond. Our salvation. Our power. But will it be enough to keep us from shattering? The lives of all dragons are on the line.

Tulsa Rose has gone through hell and back. We have a complicated history, becoming her guardian after a family tragedy is only the tip of the iceberg. I sent her away. It was the right thing to do, even if she felt like I turned my back on her. The truth is, she was a temptation I couldn't have. She was way too young. Now she's home, ten years later. I want her more now than I ever did. Too bad she hates me. It doesn't matter. I'm not walking away from her again. She belongs to me, she always has. I'm staking my claim once and for all.

Waking up in complete darkness, I find myself naked, scared, and alone. I thought my past was as bad as it could get, but I was wrong. My nightmares are child's play compared to the place they've stashed me. The people who took me are planning something horrible. Thinking about it makes my skin crawl.

I have a secret. Four of them, actually. They’re big, strong, and make their living taking off their clothes for adoring fans. But they’ve been giving me private shows for free.

I've always wanted to be a chef. But the same day two pink lines showed up on the test, was the day I gave up chasing my own dreams to put my daughter first. I didn't expect that to lead to a life of being scrutinized by my parents for every single move I made. After years of it, I was done. I caught the first flight to New York. I was already filled with nerves before we even took off until a stranger with an infectious smile, heartbreaker blue eyes, and a personality that can light up anyone's life, took the seat next to me.

It was the worst day of my life. The doctor walked in, told me the horrible news, and then my husband asked for a divorce two weeks later. Six months have passed and I'm in a much better place, but I'm pretty sure I'll never really get over it . . . Then my best friend introduces me to her brother-in-law, Neil Crimson, the world's most famous astronaut. He's just returned from a voyage to the moon where he's overseeing their new Lunar Labs project—and he's smokin' hot. Against my will, she sets me up on a date with him—and he actually says yes.

I thought I had survived the kings’ games. I thought I had finally emerged victorious. I was wrong. Reeling from the disappearance of one of my mates, I must fight harder and smarter than ever before.

Alone for the first time after being married for twelve years, I never expected four younger men to tempt me with a good time. When I saw them dancing — and stripping — at Club Red, they filled my imagination with all sorts of filthy thoughts. The next morning, they turned up in my backyard as the landscapers I’d hired sight unseen. I’m wildly attracted to the men and their hard, toned bodies, and soon, I find out they’re interested in me, too.

In my line of business, every day dawns with the smell of death in the air. But it’s not a bullet that’s going to slay me. It’s Sabella, the woman who was promised to me—the woman who betrayed me. We’re heading down a path of destruction, but there’s no turning back. At the first chance she gets, she’ll stab me in the back again. She’s a dangerous risk and a threat to my family. If I were wise, I’d eliminate that risk and leave her funeral to the sharks. I must be an idiot, because I’m going to finish what I started, no matter the cost.

A deal sealed with a handshake promised she’d be mine. A broken vow ripped her from my future. I made unspeakable sacrifices to claim what rightfully belongs to me. After all the blood I shed in her name, the bond that ties us is hatred. The war cost us both dearly, but the price we paid won’t be in vain. I’ll never let her go.

My father never intended to honor his promise to marry me to the most despised crime lord in Corsica. He thought that handshake would be long forgotten. Until Angelo Russo shows up at my sixteenth birthday party and demands his due when I turn eighteen. A man to whom no one dares say no is determined to take what he considers as his, especially when he’s told he can’t have it.

Colton Lyon the tough talking pierced, tattooed biker has fallen for the young Kat Sloan as soon as she moves to town and starts working for him. When he finds out about an attack in her past Colt does the only thing a man in his position can do; he handles it. Now all he wants to do is be with his woman, his crew and his bike; but will an old enemy stand in the way of his happiness?

I shouldn't have even looked at her, and I sure as f*** shouldn't have kissed her. That's when things started to get messy. Her father hated me and believed I was out to screw over his club, but I wasn't. I had no loyalty to the person who left me for dead and soon enough Zane would have to see that. I wasn't just Zane's prisoner anymore, I became one to Sydney's heart. It didn't matter how much her father took his rage out on me, I wasn't going to stop caring for her.

Aika Song must make an important delivery through the cursed Crimson Forest for her injured father. If she doesn’t, they won’t survive the hard winter. She fails. But she’s rescued by wolf shifters, who somehow give her sight. There’s beautiful, funny Archer, who can’t quite hide his pain. Grady, who’s sullen and loud. And Thomas, their alpha, who mysteriously vanishes. Aika is desperate to get back home but finds herself entangled in her father’s secrets. He has enemies. So do the wolf shifters she feels a blooming fondness for.

Sacrifice is just another part of life I've come to terms with. I thought I'd given up everything. My soul. My sanity. My heart. But Ivy Palmer was my greatest sacrifice of all.

The moment Julie laid eyes on Damion five years ago, she’d fallen hard for him. Unfortunately, it was obvious to her that he’d put her in the friend zone. But after a spontaneous weekend sail turns their relationship into something more, the fight for the life that they want together may just turn deadly.

Having the name Godric, strength has always been my only option. I've taken on every unlawful labor with brawn and a side of madness, earning me the president patch on my cut. I am unstoppable. A force no one reckons with. Until my uncle from a rival club discovers a weakness I didn't even know I had. Monet. With beautiful honey eyes that remind me of my gold-plated Magnum and resilience that has my focus only on her, betrayal erupts around us. Lost in a façade of love and lust, enemies slip into my circle. No one can be trusted. I'll dig until every traitor is taken down.
