Gavin Ennock once sailed the skies on airships and delighted audiences with his fiddle music. Now a victim of the Clockwork Plague, he is consumed by both madness and brilliance. To save her fiancé's life, Alice Michaels breaks into the Doomsday Vault to recover a cure, only to incur the wrath of the British Empire and make them both enemies of the Crown.

Malcolm Khalaji is one paternity test away from a breakdown. When a one-night stand from a year ago shows up on his doorstep, she's bringing more than a trip down memory lane—and her little bundle of joy may just be a bundle of trouble if it turns out the baby is actually his. Especially when he and Seong-Jae are called back to active duty, partnering again with Internal Affairs on the murder of a fellow officer, caught on tape and seemingly cut and dried. But nothing is easy about this case, and what looks simple on the surface hides something deeper.

When a charred body is recovered inside a burned-out car, before Malcolm and Seong-Jae can solve the case they must first trace the victim's identity. False plates. ID missing. Teeth pulled from the skull. The victim's killers knew exactly how to hide their tracks, but careful forensics work and two stubborn detectives mean the name of the dead won't remain buried for long.

COP KILLER. That's the accusation scrawled on the home of a dead man, found executed in his own bedroom. That's the tawdry headline thrown around every news channel, every social media feed, every conversation taking over Baltimore. That's the name given to a man who may have been innocent, but never had the chance to prove it—and now Malcolm and Seong-Jae must solve his murder. A death that never should have happened; a death on their watch, when legal technicalities tied their hands.

The Clockwork Plague continues to incite destruction throughout the world. For Thaddeus Sharpe, the only solution for the disease is death.

There he meets a mysterious young woman named Sofiya Ekk, who offers him a proposition from her powerful employer, Mr. Griffin. Thad has his suspicions, but it's an offer he cannot refuse.

As Gavin Ennock pilots his airship, the Lady of Liberty, to China, his fiancée, Lady Alice Michaels prays they make it in time. The Clockwork Plague consumes Gavin's body and mind, driving him increasingly mad—and driving a wedge between him and Alice. Their only hope lies in China with the Dragon Men.

Brilliant and uptight emergency room doctor Alyssa Davenport has absolutely no desire to travel to Antigua to go cockle fishing. What the hell is a cockle anyway? But it's time for her to fulfill a ridiculous New Year's Eve pact with her best friends. Heck, maybe she'll meet a hot fisherman who isn't intimidated by her and looks at her as a woman instead of a doctor. Lord knows her body is screaming for a little attention.

The last thing I expected to find in my dossier was sexy stockings, a plane voucher to London, and an invitation to dance at a gentleman's club. I'm a quiet museum curator for God's sake. No way, no how am I going to slide down a pole for a bunch of over privileged, narcissistic men—until I see Sean Fraser, my childhood crush, enter the establishment. Since I'm no longer that overweight teen with braces and mousey hair, there is no way he'll recognize me. Hmmm . . . Maybe I'll give him a fake name—and a private dance. That ought to make him finally notice me, right?

Veterinarian Reese Scott can't believe it when her dossier contains vouchers to South Africa to go cage diving with sharks. And when not being intimidated by sea creatures, she's supposed to be having hot monkey sex with a stranger. So why would her best friend Cole Rayburn be involved in her adventure? Except when Cole takes his shirt off, and she sees he's filled out in all the right places, she can't help but want a closer look . . . touch. Too bad he'll always see her as the tomboy from next door.

The ISC created me for one purpose: to accept pain. I move from one test subject to the next, taking their physical and emotional struggles away. When Subject 869, an alien alpha with crimson eyes and merciless hands, demands more from me, I can’t give him what he wants most: my pleasure.

Finally taken from the depths of hell, all I want is freedom. Instead, fate demands I accept a new master. A relentless alien alpha with orange scales and eyes so hungry I feel his pain.

I just inherited an apple orchard in Nova Scotia. That's definitely a sentence I never would have imagined saying in my life. I've only ever been a socialite from New York, but that orchard is my chance to prove to my family, and myself, that I can do more. Be more. I may not exactly know what I want out of life yet, but I'm determined to stick to something—and no, I'm not talking about the bee farmer next door.

Olivia was the best thing that ever happened to me. But she's a good girl, and I have a side that is far too dark for a minister's daughter. When she started talking about plans after graduation, the only thing I could do was run back to Italy-to protect her from me. But she's back in my life, and I need a wife before I can take full ownership of our failing vineyard and hotel. Only problem is, I want her again. No way can I put my hands on her. One kiss, one taste, could unleash the side of me that would only scare her.

I was backpacking my way through Europe with my friend. It was supposed to be an adventure, one last carefree trip before we started our grown up lives. Then I meet King Romer and things start to get serious really fast.

I’m not supposed to be here. That’s what I keep telling everyone but no one will listen. I just wanted to see the castle nestled deep in the woods. Instead, I end up getting kidnapped.

I’ve always wanted to go to Scotland and when I win my dream vacation, I have nothing but high hopes for the trip. Then I get turned around and when I stop to ask for directions, I’m led to this castle and entered into some kind of Queen ceremony.

When I was fifteen, I saw something that no one could explain. I saw a man change into a wolf. Everyone thought I was drunk or looking for attention but I knew what I saw. Now I'm going to prove it to the world.

Lisa is a card-carrying, book-loving Gryffindor. Solid. And that's why everyone knows she's awesome. Well, except for her crush, Matt. He only ever sees her as a friend. Plus, he's got his eye on another girl. Oh well, plenty of fish and all that. Good thing Lisa just read a book on the "wedding ring phenomenon"—you get more attention when you're already taken. What if Lisa pretends to be Matt's plus one? Maybe it'll help Matt get his girl and Lisa can hook her own fish.
