I bite back a gasp, because yes, I want him. I want him in ways I shouldn't, in ways that terrify me.

My wife had an affair.
Not only that, she casually indulged her lover over the phone, allowing him to crush the bones of my right hand, known as the "Hand of God," right in front of our six-year-old child, with a stomp of his shoe. I could never hold a tool again.

Billionaire. Revenge. Second Chance. Escape while pregnant.

When Mellow Fanning married Zeath Lupin, the cold chairman of Lupin Group, she thought their love was forever. But everything crumbled when he introduced his pregnant mistress at a family dinner.
Angry, Mellow sought to make Zeath restless by kidnapping the mistress. However, that resulted in a tragedy that nearly claimed her life and that of the child growing inside her—a child Zeath didn’t deserve.
She faked her death and ran away, bound to return as Zeath’s only means to remain as the chairman of Lupin Group.
Would he recognize her? Would she accept his apology if he ever gave one? And what would happen when the threat she once fled from rekindled, endangering her and her child’s lives once more?











“Do you know how much I wished you wouldn’t come near me, or even... touch me?” Zeath drones on. “All those cuddles and kisses, all the affection, made my skin crawl—like a troll embracing its victim before gobbling them. One can only imagine how much it stinks. You are no different from that troll. You merely caught my attention because you were a self-absorbed twonk, and we needed to test if you even had the heart to love another.”
“We?” I croak out.
Then Zeath’s fingers trail gently along my face, his eyes glinting with pure poison, and his voice is no better.
“Poor Mellow, it is all a dare, a gratifying one. Divorce or not, it’s your choice.”

Two masterminds collide in a fiery romance filled with schemes, passion, and payback. In this game of love and power, only they are worthy opponents—and perfect partners.

When my son was hospitalized with a high fever, Henry Harding was with his ex-lover—a final betrayal that shattered what little remained of our marriage.
The pain of my unwed pregnancy is a wound I can never speak of, as the child's father vanished without a trace. Just as I was about to take my own life, Henry swooped in, offering me a home and vowing to treat my fatherless child as his own.
I've always been grateful to him for saving me that day, which is why I've endured the humiliation of this lopsided marriage for so long.
But everything changed when his former flame, Isabella Scott, returned.
Now, I'm ready to sign the divorce papers, but Henry demands ten million dollars as the price of my freedom—a sum I could never hope to scrape together.
I looked him in the eye and said coldly, "Ten million dollars to buy your heart."
Henry, the most powerful heir on Wall Street, is a former heart patient. He'll never suspect that his so-called shameful ex-wife orchestrated the heart beating in his chest.

"Don't come near me, Alpha Tristan," I said. "Our story has been over for a long time. It's better to keep it that way."
"Valerie, I know I made mistakes. We all did. I didn't see how much you did for us—how much you sacrificed." He choked out, "But now I can fix it. It's not too late."
"Just leave," I said, trying to walk past him, only for his hand to stop me.

Silas Kane, a 16-year-old boy, lost everything during the Great Rift Disaster. His entire family was wiped out in the vicious monster invasion that tore through their city. No one truly understood how the monsters managed to reach Earth. Some said they came through massive dimensional rifts leading to a hellish realm, others blamed failed experiments with ancient portal technology.

During the devastating war, thirteen extraordinary individuals managed to awaken their hidden magical cores and gained godlike powers. These legends became known as the First Awakeners. They taught the surviving humans how to tap into their own cores and awaken special talents. With these newfound abilities, humanity fought back and finally drove the monsters out of their world.

However, after victory came a cruel new order. Those who awakened powerful talents ruled as kings, while anyone with weak or useless abilities was treated like worthless trash.

On the day of his awakening, Silas only managed to awaken a seemingly useless talent — Resonance Sense. It allowed him to perceive and analyze the energy signatures of others, but offered no offensive or defensive power. Because of this, he was bullied, humiliated, and looked down upon by everyone around him.

Unable to endure the endless suffering any longer, Silas decided to end his life. But the moment he was on the verge of death, the mysterious black crystal he received from the late Grand Instructor Halric activated. A powerful system awakened within him.

[Are you ready to rise from the ashes and become the strongest?]

From a weak, broken boy everyone called trash, Silas begins his journey of revenge, rapid growth, and absolute dominance in a world where power is everything,

“Is this the Senior class?” a pretty teenage girl popped her head into the class, with bright blue eyes, a pearly white smile, and a dashing mob of blond hair.
Dario rolled his eyes. “Yes, Shysie, you guys are late,” he said, annoyed. Dario hoped that the group of Vampires that are in hiding with him would have kept a low profile and behave themselves until the air was cleared with the Higher Council.
A group of 3 students stumbled into the classroom laughing. Ann’s eyes met one, and she started to get a glimpse of flashbacks. She shifted uncomfortably under his eyes, blushing a bit, not sure about the images in her head. She forced her eyes down onto her table. Paris smiled slightly as he knew that Ann was getting flashbacks of a heated session. Even though they did not go all the way, he saw her life when he was drinking her blood from her inner thigh. That night was the wildest she has ever been with a guy. When he drove her home Saturday morning, he compelled her to forget everything and sleep the weekend off. He compelled her to only remember everything when she was near him.

“You think I’d share my mate? Just stand by and watch while you fuck another woman and have her kids?”
“She’d just be a Breeder, you would be the Luna. Once she’s pregnant, I wouldn’t touch her again.” my mate Leon’s jaw tightened.
I laughed, a bitter, broken sound.
“You’re unbelievable. I’d rather accept your rejection than live like that.”


As a girl without a wolf, I left my mate and my pack behind.
Among humans, I survived by becoming a master of the temporary: drifting job to job… until I became the best bartender in a dusty Texas town.
That’s where Alpha Adrian found me.
No one could resist the charming Adrian, and I joined his mysterious pack hidden deep in the desert.
The Alpha King Tournament, held once every four years, had begun. Over fifty packs from across North America were competing.
The werewolf world was on the verge of a revolution. That’s when I saw Leon again...
Torn between two Alphas, I had no idea that what awaited us wasn’t just a competition—but a series of brutal, unforgiving trials.

Mystery, secrets, suspense—your next page-turner is here.

Every year, the harvest comes. And every year, the vampires choose.

Eighteen-year-old Isla never paired, never bred, never followed the path carved out for human girls. Instead, she was drawn to the cold, to the mist, to the forbidden castle on the hill.

Now, she knows why.

It's him. It's always been him. Prince Aeron, the first of his bloodline. He is ancient, devastatingly handsome, and cruelly dangerous. He chooses her to be his human. His pet.

Or so she thinks.

Isla is more than just another toy. Marked by a forgotten rune, bound by a curse older than the vampire throne itself, she is the only one who can break the darkness that's creeping up on Aeron.

As Isla descends deeper into the quiet shadows of Aeron’s world, where pain is worshipped, obedience is pleasure, and desire can be more dangerous than death, she begins to question everything she’s been taught about the masters who rule her world.

“Nira,” he breathed, reaching for the back of her head.
She continued to work every inch of him, her hands teasing, her mouth caressing, until his legs began to shake and his knees nearly buckled. She started to feel him grow larger as she moved faster, pulling his hips to her as she swallowed every inch of him, listening to him pant and groan.

Synopsis — Married by Midnight

Zoe Hart never intended to marry a billionaire; she struggles just to pay her rent, let alone a spontaneous marriage in Las Vegas. However, after a wild night filled with too much alcohol and surprising honesty, she wakes up with a pounding headache and hazy memories, only to discover she has a marriage certificate that ties her to Adrian King.

Adrian, the youngest tech mogul in his field, prides himself on maintaining control. Marriage was never on his agenda, especially not to a broke architecture student who possesses a sharp wit, captivating eyes, and zero tolerance to billionaire drama. Yet something about Zoe breaks through his polished world in a way he never saw coming.

When the footage of their wedding vows emerges, chaos follows. Adrian’s company faces a public scandal, Zoe's scholarship is at risk, and the media is relentless. Under intense public pressure, they strike a temporary agreement: remain married for a few months, strictly contractual.

However, living together in a penthouse under constant scrutiny, with staged public appearances, begins to blur the lines. Beyond the rehearsed smiles, genuine connections form—sharing laughter, heartfelt conversations, and unexpected closeness.

As their relationship grows deeper, danger closes in. Someone is determined on dismantling Adrian’s empire, and exposing their "fake" marriage could ruin them both. When sabotage strikes and the media turns ruthless, Zoe steps back to protect Adrian’s reputation.

It's then that Adrian realizes that success is actually nothing without her by his side.

Putting everything on the line, his company, his reputation, his entire life, he takes one last bold move to win her back.

Love was never part of their agreement.

Yet amid the bright light of Vegas and their shared moments, they discover a connection worth choosing.

When Aria stumbles across Kael while trespassing into Nightclaw territory to gather rare herbs, the pull between them is instant—and undeniable. But their packs are enemies. Her Alpha would never allow it. And Kael has sworn off the bond that fate once used to destroy someone he loved.

Yet every moon draws them closer.

And when a dark force threatens to wipe out both packs, Aria and Kael may have no choice but to either fight fate—or surrender to it.

Elettra has big plans.
Finish her degree, get her mother healthy again, then get the hell out of Dodge.
She’s done with the Bellarmine family. Would’ve run years ago if she could.
She just wants a life free from their control, the memories they buried, and—most of all—free from Dorian Bellarmine.
But Dorian Bellarmine isn’t done with her.
He shows up without warning. Breaks into her flat. Screens her calls. Threatens anyone who gets too close.
He says he’s protecting her. He says no one else can touch her. He says he never stopped wanting her.
But he’s the one she needs protection from.
If not for him, she wouldn’t have been in the car that almost got blown to pieces.
If not for him, she wouldn’t have faced men with machine guns blocking the road.
But, if not for him, she’d have died years ago.
She knows she should run. She’s been trying to for ten years.
But Dorian’s the only way to keep her and her mother alive.
Bound by Bellarmine is a steamy mafia romance about family lies, blood ties that cut too deep, and a love that should never have started.

I left behind the lies, the fear, and the mafia world my ex dragged me into. A new apartment was supposed to be my fresh start to focus on my photography and life ahead.

Then I met the man across the hall. Dante Voss was everything I didn't know I needed–kind, patient and very attentive. He made me feel safe for the first time in months and even my stalker seemed far away now. Everything was perfect until cracks started to show up as he knew things I never told him, isolated me and the more I fell for him, the more I started to wonder if our meeting was ever an accident at all.

Because the truth is far worse than I imagined.

Now I'm trapped between two ruthless mafia kings, hunted by the past I ran from and protected by the man who has been watching me from the shadows all along. The stalker I've feared for months and the man I've fallen in love with are one and the same.

Some men don't pursue you, they simply make sure there's nowhere else to go.

"Ma'am, I'm sorry... your tenth IVF attempt has failed."
I stumbled out of the hospital in a daze, my mind replaying every devastating rejection I'd heard over the past year.
Until I caught my own reflection in a shop window across the street—my face pale and swollen... and just beyond the glass, my husband clasping a jeweled necklace around his mistress's neck.

BOUND BY DECEPTION is a fast-paced adult fantasy romance combining fake dating, morally grey protagonists, and a ghost-whispering heroine who refuses to be anyone's asset.

Set in the richly imagined city of Ashenveil , where a supernatural governing body polices the boundary between the living and the dead , this is the story of Seraphine Calloway, a junior book editor who talks to ghosts and has spent her whole life making herself invisible, and Emrys Vayne, a four-hundred-year-old Faeborn Warden who has spent the same period making himself untouchable.

Their arrangement is tactical. Their chemistry is not.

Featuring an enemies-to-lovers slow burn built on genuine intellectual respect, a ghost intelligence network that delivers the story's most crucial plot twists, supernatural political intrigue across six increasingly high-stakes acts, and a villain whose idealism makes him more terrifying than cruelty ever could.

Perfect for readers who loved the moral complexity of Twisted Love, the atmospheric tension of Haunting Adeline and the slow-burn longing of The Love Hypothesis but wanted all three in a world where the dead have opinions and act on them. Dark. Addictive. Impossible to put down.

The dead are talking. She's finally ready to listen to all of it.

His fingers crawled down from my shoulders to my waist like he was going through an art piece, but was breathing heavily at the same time.

“Thalia…” his breath touched my left ear. “Our bond isn't just about instinct…”

I pulled him off me, stepping back into the room. “Jaden, I'm human, and you're a werewolf. A bind cannot exist between us.”

“And does that matter?”

“It… it should.”

He pulled me back into his arms, and our lips engaged in a kiss, his scent of fresh grass waffling through my nostrils.

“You know what?” His hands touched my boobs. “It's no longer about you breaking this curse on me.”


It had never been the same since the cruel incident of my parents’ death, and the scene still imprinted in my mind like a layer of skin.

My mind had always been about them, always dreaming of them.

I met Kael, and just when I thought I'd found some sort of peace, he betrayed me by selling me off to Alpha Jaden.

Weren't all these enough to break me?

Jaden claimed I was his mate despite my not being a werewolf. I tried to refuse, but my whole body could only confirm I was his.

Then what next?

Just when I was going to accept the crazy bond between us, I started to find evidence that he was my parents’ killer.

How was I supposed to cope with all these as a human living among werewolves?

" Open wide for me baby. I'll give you what you want"

"Dera," he said, his voice low and strained.

But then, Eric bit my shoulder, marking me as his mate. The sharp pain snapped me back to reality, and I stumbled back, my hand flying to the mark.

Six years of hauling corpses. Six years of scraping maggots out of floorboards and suffocating in a toxic slurry of putrefying flesh and industrial solvents—all just to buy my husband a little more borrowed time.

I thought the thing I pulled back from the brink of death was a human being.

But the day my joint accounts were frozen... the moment my own son clamped a hand over his nose in disgust at my stench... the second I watched his mistress weeping softly into his chest... I finally realized the truth.

I hadn't saved a man. I had resurrected a pack of monsters, and they weren't going to stop until they ground me into the dirt.

"Never call a girl a bi-t-ch," I said, my gaze locking onto his as he blinked awake, the bright blue drink I had just doused him with still trickling from his dark locks. "Or she might just give you a taste of her temper."

I flashed him one last sardonic smile before brushing past him and walking away, practically swaying with attitude.

Well, this year promises to be... interesting.

Carla Summers: a self-proclaimed connoisseur of sarcasm and the living embodiment of impulsive missteps. In an attempt to flee her tumultuous past, she relocates to California with her mom, hoping for a fresh start—and perhaps a chance to get it right this time around.

In her new home, Carla quickly befriends Josie and Tamia, her newfound accomplices in mischief, and for the first time in years, her life begins to feel like it's settling into a semblance of normalcy.

However, she also crosses paths with Asmodeus Stewart—the school’s irresistibly infuriating bad boy—and his entourage of less-than-stellar characters.

She detests him, and he returns the sentiment in full.

Yet, as poets often muse, the boundary between love and hate is perilously thin. Sometimes, when two people despise each other, that animosity can evolve into something far deeper.

A hopeless entanglement, one might say...

The moment they claim her, war ignites.

Can Alex survive three possessive Alphas without losing herself in the process?

Or will the one thing she craves most—love—become the very thing that destroys her?

This is a very dark romance with many levels. The things that happen to the FMC are horrific no matter how the men in her life attempt to label it. What happens to her is SA no if ands or buts. I don’t romanticize it, I call it what it is. Other characters, including the men, try to reframe it into something else, but she always calls it what it is. There’s no hearts and flowers between the main characters in the first half of this book despite the attempts of her men to change that, so please don’t think it is that type of romance book. Alex is tough, but she is put through a lot, and comes out the other side a stronger woman. If you can handle the darkness and emerge with her on the other side to a new life with the happiness she deserves, then please read her story.

Trigger warning. This is a dark romance, and it contains scenes of SA on page throughout the book. There is also kidnapping, trafficking, and depictions of torture. So, please be aware.

Being a part of a reserved family, Suki knows her place within the community of the Moonstone pack. She has her duties, and she completes them perfectly, just as her father orders. As the daughter of the Beta, the second in command, she's set to live a life of importance within the pack, helping to aid it to greatness, and that's only meant to become stronger once she finds her mate.

Like every other werewolf, she has dreamt of what it would be like to find her mate when she comes of age, to know what the power of the mate bond truly feels like. However, when she turns 18, she doesn't just experience one bond... she experiences TWO.

Two separate bonds with two completely different males - bad boy Brendan and the perfect soldier Reynard. How could this be? It defies the laws of nature; all werewolves are given one mate and one mate only.

As she and her two mates try to understand their anomaly of a mate bond, they also have to deal with an even greater threat that's approaching - something that's not only a threat to their pack, but to the entire werewolf species.

Will they be able to save the pack? And who will Suki choose as her mate to finally seal the bond... Brendan or Reynard?
