I was eight years old when I found out I had a father. It was the same day I held my dead mother in my arms while praying her life wasn't really over. I was dropped into the middle of a new family not long after that...From the very beginning I was ostracized because of who my mother had been. The daughters of club members were generally known as MC Princesses. My little sister was one. My title was a bit different, and proved that my mom's sins would always be held against me. I was The Other Princess.

Kendrick Alexander shows up at my grandson’s birthday party, a handsome dragon shifter with a builder’s hands and a guarded heart. He’s everything I swore I’d never risk again—but there’s no denying my inner wolf’s need for him. He’s been tasked to protect one of Salem’s old cathedrals, and he needs my help to uncover its secrets. The closer Kendrick and I get to the truth, the harder it becomes to deny what’s happening between us. The building hums with dangerous magic, pulling my coven into the battle of our lives.

When one door closes...second chances open another.... Ethan was lost after a major accident abruptly shifted him from a military life to a civilian one, from working with dogs to odd jobs.... In that time, he’d spent months healing from his physical injuries. When he connects with Badger and the rest of his Titanium Corp. group of former SEALs, Badger offers Ethan an opportunity he can’t refuse. A chance to do the work he used to do...with a twist.

I was almost forty and thought I’d never find my mate—until Beck showed up in town. My wolf was captivated by this dragon shifter from an ancient clan, and we spent every waking moment together, until he vanished without a trace. My shifter coven used all the magic we could muster but still couldn’t find my beloved mate. Assuming he was dead, my wolf howled in agony. Two years later, I got the shock of a lifetime. A stranger was brought to our coven for help, but this man was no stranger to my wolf—under all that bedraggled hair was Beck, with no memory of his identity, or even me.

Total surrender doesn't come easy to a natural-born alpha. Shape-shifting special operative Brad Durant has been held against his will by the enemy for nearly a year. He's given up hope and is fast giving up his will to survive - that is, until a hot-tempered, redheaded succubus is placed in the cell next to his. She calls to his wolf on a primitive level and he won't let anyone or anything harm her. Giving his body to the little minx is easy, but guarding his heart is much harder.

He’s the man I absolutely hate. Why? He took my v-card. He left me in a hotel room. Alone. Four years later...He’s a billionaire consultant, the No. one in NY City. (So much for karma!) A demanding, bossy jerk who’s cocky AF - and still panty-melting hot (See? No karma at all!). I should resist him. I shouldn’t let him tempt me. Then, he says we’re more than friends, and I feel myself melt. It turns out, even a man like him has a heart. It’s unfortunate that we can’t be together. Because he can never find out...He’s the father of my child.

Combining a trip to see his grandparents with hunting down a K9 dog sounds like a good excuse at the time to Greyson. Somehow the K9 had been accidentally flown halfway around the world in the wrong direction and then lost. Finding the dog wasn’t easy, but Greyson follows the trail of destruction the same as the K9 does...and finds the female shepherd protecting a mother and child...So not what he expected.

When I got divorced and moved to the quiet Oregon countryside.... The last thing I expected was for a hot stranger to pound on my door, demanding I go with him in the middle of the night. His sister-in-law’s in labor, and he swears she’s on death’s door. The weirder part? I’m not allowed to tell anyone what I’m about to see.

It all started when I decided to leave the biker gang. The leader killed my father and destroyed my family. I will not rest — until the bastard’s dead. When I return to town, I have only one place to stay.... Carlisle’s Pub. The owner is a gorgeous woman with perfect curves. Her sexy eyes melt my soul. Her touch is just what I need. Regina’s pub is the best place for me to draw the rival out. But I can’t unleash my demons on her.

Two years ago, I had a one-night stand with a hot stranger. Billionaire Marcus Willingham. Powerful, irresistible blue eyes and completely off-limits. He couldn’t get to me before those two thugs grabbed me, but luckily, he was able to chase them off. It was just supposed to be one night. No love. No feelings. And certainly no regrets. Six weeks later, I found myself staring at a positive pregnancy test.

They say love hurts—but they never mentioned it could make you bleed. His deceit was like wine. I drank it in. Let it intoxicate me. But he’s not the man I fell for.

Alpha-male, wolf-shifting druid sorcerer Duncan O’Caha has one regret in his immortally long life - letting a demon escape his clutches years ago. Memories of that night have haunted him for decades. When the nightmares of old surface once more, he wastes no time returning to the scene of the crime. Deep down, he knows the demon is back with a vengeance. This time, he plans to kill it - that is, if he can keep his head in the game and off the captivating young woman he finds in the small town that is full of dark secrets.

No sex. No falling in love. No trying to buy out her family's business. These are the rules Audrey Miller sets when she's asked to pose as the fake girlfriend of New York's best marketing CEO. Aaron Patterson is after her cousin's company and that is enough for her to hate him. The longer the charade lasts, the less Audrey can resist the billionaire she's sworn to hate. How can she save her family's company if falling for him wasn't part of the deal?

He caught me spying on my enemies and could've had me killed. Instead, he says he wants to help. To give me a future, freedom, and most of all, revenge. I want that, too. I want everything he has to give…even though I know he’s hiding something.

Crimson Special Operative Blaise Regnier feels the darkness he carries within creeping up on him. With centuries under his skull-studded belt, this immortal vampire has seen a thing or two in his day. Not to mention he’s become something of an expert at hiding his worries and emotions behind dark wit and black leather pants. It's just a matter of time before his inner demon holds all the cards, and then he'll be the next threat his teammates need to hunt to protect mankind. As it turns out, someone has that task well in hand, and she's not playing games.

Paranormal Security and Intelligence Operative and Shadow Agent Gram Campbell is not having a great year. So far this alpha-male wolf-shifter has had his heart and his body broken. Is he beyond repair, or will his destined mate bring much-needed healing to the man and the wolf within?

When my band mates finally convinced me to sign off on the tour with rival band Juniper Woolf, I thought there was no way that I'd ever get along with their lead singer Fran...that is, until I started spending time alone with her on the tour bus.

How I wound up at the auction? I’m only here to close a multimillion-dollar deal. Until she walks out on stage. I could tell she didn’t recognize me. My best friend’s sister. The friend that’s no longer alive. She doesn’t know the truth about what happened to him. Before I could stop myself, I put in a bid.
