Originally created to make killing a white wolf easier,” John said quietly, looking at me concerned, flipping my hand around as he inspects it, “it’s called the white wolf's blood ring. It’s enchanted so when a white wolf comes near it they are compelled to put it on, trapping their wolf in their mind leaving them powerless.”

A small gasp slipped past my lips.

Knowing this ring took Tundra away, that’s why I don’t feel her.

Maya Torres has poured her heart into her small café on a bustling city corner, serving comfort in every cup and guarding her independence like a secret recipe.

"Sometimes love comes in like a breath of fresh air,

it finds you and consumes every piece of your existence."

Capo Dei Capi

Leonardo da Vinci once wrote, Black is like a broken vessel, which is deprived of the capacity to contain anything. I wonder what he thought of the color white. Did he think it was a sign of purity? Or did he too look upon whiteness as a false brightness, a lie?

2-years-ago if I stood on this very podium, with this man across from me, I would have smiled similar to the way I am now. The white dress hugging my body then a promise of honesty and trust as I glowed with a warmth knotting my stomach walls.

Only then, my smile would've been comfortable, wrapped in genuine joy, because then I loved him. At that stage in my life, he was my world and I would have laid myself on the floor where he walked with his blood-stained soles. And I would have done it naked, ready to bare myself to this one man with a smile on my face.

A smile that wasn't bold, or soaked with the whisper of revenge. My heart would have beat with love, and not in the threat that now lurks outside these Church walls, waiting with finite patience that would soon be over. This marriage is no fairy-tale.

This book has been rewritten and is dedicated to my Grandmother, Marie Valerie Perrett. Her flesh and bones now lay as ash, while her spirit glows within the ones fortunate to have breathed her air, as memories, and moments from the past become those that define our future. In my life some of those are memories and lessons that she has taught me, not just by words, but by actions.

She gave me the tools to be a strong woman, and at times I admit I struggled to stand, but my grandmother held me by both hands at those times and lifted me up. Then she let me go, because she knew, she knew all along that one day I would need the strength to stand on my own. To lift my own daughter by her hands and learn to let her grow so she can become stronger.

Who you were or the way you felt, my Grandmother loved without judgement.

When she looked at me, spoke to me I never doubted her love, it was always an invisible beam between us. When I was younger we used to lay on her bed and she used to read to me stories from the bible while I used her arm as a pillow. I remember when I got a bit older and she read to me then I asked her, "Gran why does a story always start with Once Upon A Time?" She said because now it is a fairytale but once upon a time it was true. It was then I imagined life, I convinced myself that aliens were real. That I could be anything I want.

There is never a moment that is perfect to let the one you love go and she was one of the very few who I have loved and still do. I took my books off the pre-order today and I am glad I did. Because I get to share her memory with you guys. And dedicate this book that she waited so long to read but barely started. On Tuesday, December 4th 2018, I read the first chapter to her.

I wish I knew that it was the last day, but we never really know when death comes naturally, do we.

This book is a work of fiction. All characters are fictional.

Bringing the story to reality and making it believable to the readers.

No dis-respect to religious beliefs was intended.

Once upon a time I met a girl, I loved her with everything in me.

My love was something that happened so sudden, like a real fairy tale.

She was my beauty and I, her beast.

When she stared in my eyes I was lost in her black soulless depths, forgetting the soul I didn't see.

When Beauty looked into my HEART I saw the future in her cold hard stare.

Her body was my glory, I ignored the weapon it showed me.

I was obsessed in the slope of her curves, the movement of her hips as she put one foot in front of the other.

Her touch blinded me.

When Beauty touched me she awoke the beast, called to the killer and hummed to the sniper, until she was where my heaven began and my demons ended.

I remember the day when just a glimpse of her gutted me in the chest.

Beauty was where my madness sang and in less than a month I was hers.

My pops once told me that every man has his falling point.

Every brother has a day to mourn.

The world almost ended for her when she was eight years old. Laura, a powerful werewolf with witch-like abilities, witnessed her kingdom shattering. She was forced to flee from her world concealing her true identity.

But when she fell in love with a human, it seemed the new world had other plans for her. She was once again drawn into a complex plot designed to destroy her life. Yet… she went behind her responsibilities, breaking her heart and locking her love. Nevertheless… Her unending love heeded her.

Grey Flexis tried to hide his glitches from the rest of the world, but he realised he couldn't hide from his love. Desperate to win his love he takes unexpected paths that shocked him. Nevertheless… Laura encountered a stumbling block as a result of his unending love.

Let us walk together to their Destiny to unravel the mysteries in their lives.

Hugly is simple. A nice guy. Foreign, uneducated and shy, he gets along with children, rabbits and rats much better than with the sophisticated who tinker with society through their agents. The enemies may be educated, wealthy and powerful, and even seductive and vicious, but Hugly’s got more than a few tricks up his sleeve. He’s got friends in high and low places that never lose sight of him. His sometimes deluded and skeptical friends may think he’s there to help them, but they’ve got it all wrong. All wrong. When faced with evil in its many forms, it’s often best to just run away. But Hugly knows too, that it’s often best to stand firm, and at other times it’s best to run as fast as you can, right into the fire. Especially if saving others. When whole armies and all civilization needs saving, God chooses to send his best; six inch tall men who slay dragons, giants and prosperity preachers.

When the lights go out, the sins begin.
Sinful Nights isn't one story—it's many. A collection of steamy, adult tales where desire rules and temptation knows no limits. From forbidden encounters to irresistible passion, these nights are anything but innocent. Slip under the sheets and let the heat consume you.

A night before her wedding, Fiona caught her fiancé and her stepsister, Jenny having an affair.

Feeling betrayed, she called off the wedding.

She found solace in a bar where she drank herself to stupor and eventually lost her virginity to a complete stranger.

Never in her wildest dream would she have thought that the mysterious stranger she lost her virginity to, was a powerful big shot in Celestial city.

Fiona became the big shot’s hidden wife.

When she thought that her life and marriage was all sweet and rosy, her husband divorced her for reasons best known until him.

Fiona waited for weeks for him to return back to her, but he never did.

She found out that she was pregnant with triplets and eventually left Celestial city with her unborn babies.

Fiona had thought that her husband, Raven, hated her, but she wasn’t aware of how much he had missed her.

Once she returned back to Celestial city with her triplets, Raven knelt in front of her saying,

‘’ Fiona, please be mine again. I’ll give the whole world to you.’’ he begged desperately.

This book is dedicated to you. We don't always have a perfect romance, but sometimes it is our reasons that keep us moving forward.

I have tried to write the story as best as I could, and each time I started I ended up deleting it. So I wanted to write a different kind of story and maybe I really messed it up or maybe I did a great job, either way, this is how it all went down. Thank you so much for reading my work and for your support, not just in buying the books but sending me those emails and encouraging me to continue writing. You are the hero in my stories.

In a forgotten roadside bar on the edge of wolf territory, mechanic and bartender Wren Calloway has spent her entire life believing she’s insignificant: a low-rank wolf overlooked by her pack and safely invisible. But when Declan Mór, the dangerously powerful alpha of Blackridge Pack, walks into her bar one storm-heavy night, everything she thought she knew about herself begins to unravel.

Declan recognizes something no one else ever has: Wren is not weak. She’s a suppressed female alpha, one deliberately hidden and chemically bound by the very pack that raised her. As buried instincts awaken and a fierce, undeniable Bond ignites between them, Wren is forced to confront a terrifying truth: her alpha has been grooming her for years as a weapon to secure absolute power.

Now hunted by the only home she’s ever known, Wren flees into Blackridge territory with Declan: the one man who can steady the storm inside her, and the one man she’s not sure she can trust. But as political alliances fracture, rogue wolves close in, and ancient pack laws threaten to drag her back in chains, Wren must decide who she truly is: the obedient wolf Harlow Pack created… or the alpha she was always meant to become.

Bone Deep is a slow-burn paranormal romance filled with dangerous attraction, hidden power, political pack intrigue, and a heroine discovering that the most terrifying thing in the world may not be the wolf inside her but what happens when she finally lets it loose.

note from Kylie Bray

In order to understand the reason why I've made the choices I have, when I became the person I am today, you would have to understand why. To do that, I would need to start from the very beginning.

But before I do, understand that this is not a sappy happy romance, this is my life, this is the story of where happy endings come from. This is the path I led. So while many people would always start and end with their true love, I would start with my first. Because isn't a first love the most life altering one.

I stare at him, watching his chest expand.

How is it that someone so strong, so powerful, so dangerous to find become so small when faced with an adversary? The adversary being me.

I see him, knees on the cold tiled floor, his eyes fixated on me in equal parts disbelief. I disconnect my vision from his small form, looking briefly at what I'm wearing.

This morning when I woke up, the sun was shining, snow melting on my front lawn. My kids were sleeping, my husband gone, as usual, working, making money.

Everything was normal except when I woke up this morning, I received a message. This message contained a lot of things I've been waiting to hear but one part, in particular, stood out and made today different. This person on his knees in front of me was the big difference in my day. So when I woke up this morning and decided what I was going to wear I decided I would not wear black because black represented the sign of mourning. I wasn't going to wear white. After all, white represented a sign of new beginnings and not blue.

Blue, well blue was a sign of trust and green with a side of healing so when I woke up this morning I decided I would wear beige, it was an indifferent color something that matched any mood any desire any belief it doesn't necessarily represent anything but nor did it negate anything.

'You know what is so satisfying about killing you?"

'What?" He inquires with that tilt of his mouth and thin lips I have seen a time or two. Many women found this man handsome. sexy even. I was not different, but I knew more than many of them what made him, his colors, the layers that fell away leaving only the middle left and when you looked at it with naked eyes you'd see it was rotten.

I laugh.

'I became a player in this cat and rat game much later. I find it comical that I am the one who gets to catch you, considering there are many people who started in the beginning. What is even funnier is I am the one who would get to kill you."

'You didn't catch me Mrs. Catelli."He says my surname with a pinched face as though he can't bear the sound of it coming from his lips.

'Then what do you oppose I did?"

He smiles, but it is not a nice one. It is filled with the ugliness which has corrupted him over the years.

"When I was younger, I was a beggar by circumstance,

When I got older, I remained a beggar by choice."

Today was the first day back at school. While most of the asshats who attended Liston High Private School actually went in for the first day, I was stuck scrubbing the toilets of the Hallow mansion.

And regardless of what my brother says I look like, I am not a scholarship kid. I'm Dainy Hallow and the guy with the Goku hair wiping puke off the pebbled bathroom floor is my older brother Aiden.

Last night as is customary to do the night before school starts, we had a huge ass party.

Our initial plan was to go to school, skip last period, get home and clear out the evidence before our parents arrived back the following day.

Let's just say that plan went to shit fast when Aiden called mom. He asked her to pick up the suit he ordered from G&G for the cancer benefit we were hosting next month. A simple question followed by an unexpected answer.

Apparently, my brother and I were misinformed with regards to my parents return. My parents were actually arriving today in less than three hours.

Two hours and four injuries later, the beer bottles are gone. The bathrooms now sanitized, and beds clothed in fresh unused linen.

The rest of the house is tidy but not clean. My brother and I aren't dumb, we've been doing this for five years.

Unlike most siblings, Aiden and I don't bicker all the time.

Cara Smith is happily blessed with a caring and loving husband, Chris Knowles, with a true best friend, Jessica, by her side. For two years, everything is going on perfectly fine. Or so she thought?

On their anniversary party, Cara discovers a shocking secret about an intimate relationship with Jessica and Chris, and apparently, everyone around knew about it except for her! Devastated and heartbroken, she filed for a divorce and headed back home to her parents.

Somewhere else lies a rich and successful artist and CEO of a famous art museum, Romeo Armani, who is desperate for true love. Romeo and Cara are actually best friends since childhood, but when he asked her to come with him to France to further their career two years ago, Cara had rejected his offer to be married to Chris, although this is a sweet lie she tells herself. She couldn't dare state the real reason she left Romeo.
Chris threatens to ruin Cara's career after a lie he hears from Jessica in an attempt to make him despite Cara.

However, Romeo mocks him for making such threat. He is rich and powerful and announces that Cara's company would be the best no matter what Chris does. A year later and Cara becomes stronger and powerful. Chris has a change of heart and wants her back, but Cara has moved on and is finding a new love with Romeo.

I just arrived at the Alpha King's castle, but I have no idea why I'm here. I think it's to pay off my family's debt, but when I'm taken to a fancy bedroom, I have the feeling I'm not going to be his maid....

Isla

I'm a nobody from a distant pack. My family owes a lot for medical expenses for my brother. I'll do what I can to help them, but when I find out I've been sold to Alpha King Maddox as his breeder, I'm not sure I can do that.

The king is cold and standoffish, and rumor has it he killed his first wife. But he's also sexy and alluring. My mind might be telling me no, but my body wants him in every way possible.

Maddox

Ever since my Luna Queen died, I've sworn to never love again. I didn't go looking for a breeder, but I only have a year until I must produce an heir or lose my throne. This beautiful girl, Isla, showed up on my doorstep just in time. Is it fate? Is she my second chance mate? No, I don't want one of those.

All I need is a kid.

But the more time I spend with Isla, the more I want not just any old breeder--I want her.

Our love transcends time... Sailing on Titanic 2 was supposed to be a fun trip for my mom. It turned into a nightmare for me. When I fall into the pool and hit my head, I wake up not on Titanic 2 but on the real Titanic--the one that's about to sink in a couple of days. Thankfully, a young man is there to help me. Will is amazing. He's intelligent, caring, handsome... and about to die. Not to mention he was born in the 1800s! Convincing him I'm from 2025 is difficult. Convincing him that this unsinkable ship is about to go down is even harder. Can I convince Will to help me save lives aboard the fated ship? Will I ever get back to 2025? And if I do... how will I let Will go? Back to Titanic is the first in a series of time travel romance stories that also includes Back to Gettysburg, Back to Bunker Hill, and Back to the Highlands. All of them are combined in this story.

The morning after the Haze, I open my eyes expecting to see the love of my life, my fated mate. Instead, I see... HIM! "This can't be happening!" *** Would you rather live in a world where the impossible is possible or the possible is impossible? Blanca faces an uncertain future when she finds she's mated to the one man she never thought could be her mate. If Kieran is her mate, then her entire life is a lie. Since she's been abused her whole life, that might be a good thing. But this is... wrong on so many levels. Will Blanca find out the truth about her real identity--or be banished from her pack forever? If you like love with a twist, give this one a chance--don't quit too soon, or you'll never find out Blanca's secret!

She never wanted to be a Breeder--but her parents sold her anyway.

The Alpha King is looking for an heir in the most unorthodox way. Whoever can impregnate the Breeder first will get to be king, which means Rose finds herself in a castle where she must submit to four men or disappoint her entire pack. Though she's nervous at first, it's easier than she would've thought once she meets the four Alphas.
Mark is intelligent.
Eli is sweet.
Reece is debonair.
And Tristan is a horny goofball.
Rose wants to stay with all four Alphas forever, and they seem to love her, too. But things aren't always what they seem, especially when the king's cousin, Emily, announces she will be the next Luna.
Will Rose and her men have a chance at true love?

Amelia George is given an irresistible offer.

Devon Tyler, her brother's best friend and her old crush, offers her the opportunity of a lifetime. A favor for a favor.

His offer is simple enough. He needs a name, a single name. The only problem is she'll have to infiltrate the formidable Keller Family and get close and personal with the boss, the condescending Damien Keller.

She doesn't expect her life to change so drastically, nor for her ruthless boss to fall in love with her. Desperate, she uses his love for her to extract the information she needs, but everything comes tumbling down when a secret is uncovered that ruins everything.

"Kane stays unmoving, and I realize he’s barely breathing. I don’t think he needs oxygen to stay alive, so that’s not too surprising, but I can’t’ figure out why he is so still. His hand at my waist is so very close to my breastbone, the longing for him to slide it up only a few inches, to touch me in places no one ever has before, has a gasp leaving my lips. I have to bite down again to keep from moaning, and he hasn’t even kissed me yet."
Emory: I was born to be the Alpha of my pack, my father's first born daughter. But now... I am here, in the castle of our greatest enemy, the Vampire King. I should hate Kane Alexander, but the more time I spend with him, the more I long for him in ways I cannot understand. I am not here to be his lover, though. I am here to be his feeder. But even before his lips graze my skin the first time, I know I would give myself to him in every way imaginable if only he should ask. Kane: I long to taste the wolf shifter, but not her blood, her body... her essence. I want her in every way imaginable. But I'm already betrothed to marry another blood-born vampire, and if I call that off, I have resigned my kingdom to yet another war. There has to be a way to keep Emory Moonraker as my feeder but not claim her in my bed. I just haven't figured it out yet, and every time I look into her jade eyes, I forget everything and everyone but her. But I have enemies, and every moment she spends here in my home, Castle Graystone, she's in danger.

"Aaron, just kiss me already...."


She never planned to fall in love with a vampire hunter--and she never planned on being one either.
Cadence Findley didn't even know that vampires existed until she found one killing her friend. Then, with an enormous surge of power, she realized she was ripping the head off of a vampire!
Swept into a world full of creatures she never dreamed existed, Cadence is left with a choice. Can she outrun the clan of vampires who've marked her for death, or should she follow the advice of the sexy man in black who warned her in the woods and now insists she transform into a vampire hunter?
Will Cadence escape the bloodsuckers on her tail as she enters the secret world of vampires and guardians, hunters and hybrids?

Someone is killing unmarked souls, and Ru is the only one that can stop them. That's a bit of a problem, though, since she has no idea she's a Keeper.

Adopted as a child, Ru knows nothing about her birth parents. Her new mom insists she was given up because she "ruins everything." Hence, her name-Ruin. Yet, Ru has managed to make a life for herself in the town of Reaper's Hollow, working as a fourth grade teacher, which she loves. If it wasn't for her inability to touch anything electrical without starting a fire, she'd be the happiest girl in Upstate New York.

That is, until the charming and devastatingly handsome Cutter Michaels moves into the classroom across the hallway and starts filling her head with all sorts of unbelievable fantasies. He claims she is the lost Keeper, the daughter of a half-angel and a half-demon, and she is the only one who can help him locate three portals the Reapers, as in Grim Reaper, are using to ferry souls away to the Underworld. Ru knows he's lost his mind, and yet she finds herself being sucked into his delusions more each day. The fact that he can shoot fire out of his hands might have something to do with that.

Once she begins having dreams where she comes face to face with Thanatos, the most powerful Reaper of all, Ru begins to think there might be more to story than she's been giving him credit for. Will joining Cutter lead her to find her biological parents and discover her powers, or will Thanatos claim her for his own?
Will the Keepers close the portals, or will the Reaper's continue to claim unmarked souls whose names are not yet written in The Book of the Dead?

"Come!" I jerk back at the harshness in the male tone.

Fear bubbles up in the back of my throat as I creep toward what feels like instant death. I swallow it down and will my stick legs forward until I’m within six feet of his desk.

The chair slowly turns to reveal a man with sculpted muscle ripples beneath his black shirt, and his blue eyes burn like sapphires.

I try to picture him naked in a bed with just a thin white sheet over his midsection, and that picture forms perfectly. His glare is now a pair of bedroom eyes….

But then the sneer on his face registers in my lust-filled mind.

Whoever the hell he is. I’m not gonna like it.

Alpha Ronan

It's supposed to be fucking easy. Find the girl. Get the girl. Trade the girl. Or kill the girl, whichever needed to be done.

But then, Hezzlie Stone walks in here, smelling like freshly fallen rain and evergreen trees, and I know everything just went off the rails.

I have to keep my wits and I’m an expert at hiding my true feelings behind this mask of disdain. But this time it's hard.

That Hezzlie Stone is my MATE!


Hezzlie thinks she's going insane when she starts to dream that she's a werewolf. Her mother has no choice but to take her to an asylum for troubled teens. But when a new doctor takes her case and brings her to a strange castle in the mountains, she's not sure if she's found her only chance at getting help or lost her life altogether.

Alpha Rowan has been looking for the lost princess from his enemy's lands for years. When Hezzlie Stone shows up, he thinks he's finally found her. With Hezzlie as leverage, he can finally make his enemies pay.

There's just one problem--he never counted on Hezzlie being his mate!

Will he keep her or use her to get back at the Alpha who tried to rip his kingdom apart?

Late at night, when I think I'm alone, I feel his breath on the side of my face, and I know--he's watching me.

Ever since I moved into this ancient mansion to take care of my sick aunt, I've been experiencing strange things. When I discover she has a boarder, a mysterious, sexy artist who lives on the third floor, I think some of that is explained. The bumps in the night. The whispers from the shadows.

But once Dalton and I are properly introduced, the strange occurrences don't stop. If anything, they are amplified. When I close my eyes at night, it's his face I see. It's his hands I feel. It's his lips I taste.

The more I get to know him, the more I realize I don't know him at all. Dalton's not the kind of man that buys a woman flowers and makes her feel all warm and fuzzy. No, he's the kind of man your mama would tell you to run from. Cold. Dangerous. Complex.

And now that he wants me, I learn he is more than that. Possessive. Controlling. Diabolical.

I should leave this place before it's too late, but I know I can't. Whatever it is that's sunk it's fangs into him, it has me, too.

He has me, too.

For better or worse.

Not only is the witch that cursed him still out there, when Garth shows up leading a band of villagers who want to kill him, he’ll have to fight against his own people. Unless Bexley can find a way to stop them. It might help if she knew the truth about herself. When she discovers her true identity, nothing in the kingdom will ever be the same.

The One is the first in a new reverse harem series by the author of Realm of the Chosen and Ember’s Flames. You must read all three books in the series to get the complete story.

All Ember wants is to kill Lilith—the demon who’s evaded her for four thousand years.
Well, that… and maybe spend a little quality time with the three men who keep her satisfied in and out of the bedroom.

Ryan, Jake, and Carson aren’t just her lovers—they’re her team. Together, they hunt demons, protect humanity, and keep Ember from going off the rails.

But when they save a stranger from a demon attack, everything changes.

Zach is annoying. Immature. Human.
At least, that’s what Ember thinks… until she learns he’s a Seer.
A rare, powerful one.

And he might be the key to killing Lilith—once and for all.

Now Ember has to decide:
Can she trust the one man who doesn’t belong in her world?
Or will he destroy everything she's built—including her bond with the men she already loves?

Demon Seer is Book 1 in the Ember’s Flames trilogy—a steamy reverse harem paranormal romance featuring one demon-hunting heroine, four alpha lovers, and one very dangerous new obsession.

Opal Hart is trapped by duty, forced into an arranged marriage to the Alpha Prince—a man she’s never met, never wanted, and can’t imagine loving, who has a terrible and cruel reputation. The night before her wedding, desperate for one fleeting taste of freedom, she shares a passionate encounter with a stranger who promises her a sliver of the connection she craves.

The next day, she’s meant to stand at the altar to meet her husband and resign herself to a life of sacrifice. But her new world is far more dangerous than she imagined. Whispers of betrayal and schemes swirl around her, and she soon realizes she’s not just a wife—she’s a pawn in a twisted game.

And somewhere in the shadows, the man who once held her so intimately isn’t ready to let her go.

In a dark and cruel world, will Opal end up a pawn, or will she find a way to claim her own destiny?

For Isadora Halvick, life has never been easy, as she’s been marked by scandal since birth for being the illegitimate daughter of a billionaire. Her half-brother, Justin, makes her life worse at every possible opportunity, and things become even more complicated now that they’re enrolled in the same university.

But when Justin’s biggest rival on the ice, Knox Mohrelian, the captain of the Black Reapers of Hartwell U, suggests they “fake date” to get back at Justin, Isadora jumps at the offer, not knowing that their “relationship” will lead to a disastrous series of events that cause her first year to go awfully, and that she’ll lose so many parts of herself along the way that she’ll end up dropping out.

A year later, she’s back, completely different from the rebellious girl she was in her first year, but one thing about Hartwell U? It never forgets. And so, Isadora is plunged right back into the world of scandals, secrets as black as sin, and a complicated relationship that traps her in the cycle of being unraveled and stitched together by the same twisted love.

This time, the question is simple: How will it end? And if so, will she survive until then?

I never expected to be taken.

Varek is everything I've been taught to fear: cold, ruthless, a conqueror who destroys anyone in his path. But when he grabs me, drags me away, I realize I have no choice but to go. If I want to protect my kingdom, I have to submit to him.

He's relentless, and the heat between us is undeniable. He's not just after my kingdom-he wants me, and there's nothing I can do to stop it. His eyes burn into mine, like he knows every weakness, every desire I've been hiding from myself.

I hate him for what he's done, for who he is. But with every touch, every glance, I feel my walls start to crumble. I can't let him break me, but I don't know how much longer I can resist.
