When Liam, a young respected alpha of his pack is mated to a human, he finds he is unable to control his urges and plays along to them. Months later he managed to open up to her but she pushed him away. Now she is in trouble and her best friend, also a werewolf, has no one else to turn to but Liam.

When fate takes a dramatic turn,
his new goal becomes clear: vengeance
and rising again as a miracle physician of unmatched skill.
Lu Xian uses a restaurant as a front…
while secretly operating a hidden clinic behind the scenes.
He trains handmaidens in the healing arts,
alongside their practice in martial cultivation.
Fate entangles Lu Xian with the Fourth Prince,
a war-torn man bearing wounds from the battlefield.
That one act of healing… alters his life forever—
when he is forced into marriage!
From celestial physician to imperial consort of the Fourth Prince,
how will Chen Lu use his wits to survive the treacherous tides of court intrigue?
A path lined with schemes, love, and fierce battles lies ahead…

They called her the human defect—a wolf who couldn't shift, too weak to be Luna, too worthless to keep.
On the night of her mating ceremony, Elara Vance is rejected by her Alpha mate, betrayed by her own sister, and cast out like garbage. By sunrise, her pack sends killers to finish the job.
But the river doesn't take her. And the monster who pulls her from the depths isn't a wolf at all.
Now the woman who was meant to disappear has returned—not as a broken wolf, but as the last heir to an ancient line of dragon shifters. And standing beside her is the most dangerous Alpha in the world: Silas Vane, the Shadow King, who wants more than her revenge. He wants her.
Together, they will crash a wedding, shatter a pack, and burn the old world to the ground.
But as Elara's power grows, so does the truth: her rejection wasn't an accident.
It was the first move in a war that's been waiting a thousand years for her to wake up.
And the real enemy isn't the pack that broke her.
It's the one who built her.

“Show me your breasts.”

One of the buyers came up in front of her again. His nose crinkled, lifting his upper lip into a sneer.

She raised her fingers to her bodice, obeying as she always must if she did not wish to face severe punishment.

“My lord” manager appeared in a gesture of respect.

Suddenly, manager stopped. His voice rised in a strangled manner.

Gayriel looked up, unable to help herself. Three years at the choosing house and she had never once seen manager flustered.

“That one.” said a voice.


Woman. Virgin. Sex slave.

Three words that describe Gayriel on the day she is to be sold into service.

But she want freedom. She expected it would be difficult, and she expected it would be dangerous—the very act of escape would forfeit her life if she was caught. What she didn't expect was him.

Dynarys Firestriker, general of the Amber Aerie guard. Dragon Lord. Half Breed.

His very blood is a legacy he must fight to overcome, and slipping a female spy into his enemy's midst is the easiest way to prove himself. But the slave he chooses for the task is anything but easy. Worse, she tempts his beast...


PLEASE NOTE: This is a complete series collection for Amber Aerie Series by Lacey St Sin. Seperate books from the series are available on the author page.

“I will give you space to adjust to your position...to understand the true scope of your power because you are a strong woman, Hellcat, and you will not be satisfied any other way. When you come to me it will not be through any means of manipulation, any bargain or power on my own part, but by your own initiative.” His hand cupped her face and his thumb ran over her bottom lip, “but, I am a man who gets what he wants,” he told her, “and you will come to me.”

Tianna Koehler was just a normal, everyday woman, overworked and over stressed, until she stumbled through the portal. Thrown into a world reminiscent of Earth’s long ago past she quickly becomes dependent on the kind doctor of a small village to teach her the language and keep her safe from the villagers suspicions. When a unit of daemon invade and begin kidnapping locals she knows she owes the doctor her life, and volunteers to take his place as their prisoner.

She doesn’t know what to expect from the dangerous and sinfully attractive daemon leader, Xor’annan, or why he would need to kidnap humans at all. When he leads her to a room with directions to heal a sick infant or die with her Tianna decides that the daemon are as cruel as she had been told. Now bound to the tiny girl Tianna must unravel the mysteries surrounding the baby, because her failing condition is the least threat to the infant. And somehow Xor’annan is tied to the core of it all.

Leah Winter stopped believing in kindness the day the Winters adopted her.

For ten years, she’s been the servant, the scapegoat, the invisible girl.

St. Helena Academy was supposed to be her escape. Instead, it’s the cage where a cruel bet proves that nobles will always see her as trash.

Broken and fleeing into the night, Leah does the unthinkable: she saves a dying wolf.

What she doesn’t know is that the beast she bound her life to is Raynor Hale—the most feared Alpha heir on the continent, now disguised as her academy instructor.

He’s cold. He’s relentless. And he’s obsessed with the only woman who ever chose to heal him instead of running.

As Leah’s hidden bond grows into an unbreakable claim, she must navigate a world that wants to destroy her:

jealous nobles, a scheming council, and a family that suddenly realizes they threw away a queen.

Raynor didn’t ask for a gentle love.

He asked for her—all her bruises, her courage, and the fire she doesn’t know she has.

And he’ll raze every wall between them until she finally believes she’s worth the war.

“You did something to me. I was running and you pointed some kind of weapon at me and now...” Mia looked around noting more women nearby.
“Yes, you are one who has been selected. It is essential you eat now. We must move forward shortly, the forest is not safe at night.”

“Selected for what? I don't even know where I am. I'm either super high or this is some kind of elaborate prank...”

She glanced at the other women. They were young, maybe even younger than herself. Two with dark hair and olive skin huddled next to one another, their eyes glassy and wide. They looked to be sisters, perhaps.

There was a blond sitting straight backed, her hands trembling as she lifted something to her lips and took a bite. The last was a pale little thing, huddled on the ground with her arms wrapped around her knees and her chestnut bob hanging in her face.

Mia finds herself captured by an exotic alien race and dragged through a portal to their world, Callaphria.
An alien violent world filled with alien violent predators. A world devastated by a decades long war...and the Livarians are the last of their kind.
Along with several dozen of her fellow women, she is given the task of choosing a mate and...breeding children. Not going to happen. Instead, Mia is determined to find a way back to Earth, but the more she learns about the plight of the Livarians the more she is drawn to them. And the more she learns about Draven, their prime...the more she questions what she really wants.
When she learns that something is hunting their people, Mia is determined to save them all. For the real enemy is not what they think.

The sequel Taming Tianna is coming

"You're an omega?!" he asks gruffly.

I shake my head quickly, "N-no, sir!"

I don't know how I got here, in this moment. I tremble slightly. Because I can FEEL Mr. Logan's pheromones. I've never felt pheromones before in my life, so don't ask me how I know that that's what this is I'm feeling. But I feel them brush over me like a physical touch. I tremble again.
"Look at you shaking like a leaf in the wind."
"You're responding to my pheromones. If you were a beta, how would that be happening?"
I shake my head again, "No s-sir, I'm a beta! I don't know what's going on; this has never happened before!"
Mr. Logan leans in close, running his nose up my neck. He grips my neck lightly as he says, "Tell me, if you're not an omega, why do you smell so fucking good?"

Liam Payne is an Omega; however, that wasn't something he was aware of. He's lived his life as a beta, but that all changes when he starts to work for Chase Logan. Chase Logan is a rich, powerful, dominant alpha. After just a month working with Chase, the changes in Liam are becoming noticeable. This is problematic because Chase dislikes omegas, does not want them working for him, or even near him. So what will happen when Chase notices the changes? Will he believe Liam when Liam tells him he really didn't know he was an omega?

It's a slow burn story!

In a catastrophic event that ravaged the planet Hatune, King Stage Rager was thrust into a desperate bid for survival. His wife, Queen Sky Rager, made a heart-wrenching decision to safeguard her beloved husband, sending him to the unfamiliar realm of Earth. To protect him from relentless enemies, she erased his memories and shrouded him in a powerful cloaking spell, transforming his appearance and concealing his true identity.

For eighteen years, Stage lived a quiet, unassuming life in the charming town of Golden Lake, surrounded by adoptive family and friends who accepted him without question. However, the tranquility was shattered when his dear friend Jean Adams fell victim to a brutal murder. As Stage joined forces with the determined Sheriff, they unraveled a dark web of secrets lurking in the shadows of Golden Lake.

Their quest for justice ignited a perilous war with the sinister Liner witches, who would stop at nothing to eliminate Stage.

The Liner witches devised a diabolical plan to bring Stage's mother, the Queen of Hatune, to Earth, setting the stage for a climactic showdown.

Will Stage and his allies succeed in thwarting the witches' sinister plot, or will they witness the unthinkable: the downfall of their beloved king? The fate of Golden Lake hangs in the balance, as Stage confronts his destiny and the darkness that has haunted him for so long.

I didn’t expect to see him standing there, by the window, shirt sleeves rolled up, the morning light making his skin glow like it wasn’t meant to belong to someone so dangerous.

Draven Damian.

My sister’s husband. The man I was pretending to love. He turned slowly, his eyes locking onto mine. And just like that, my breath caught.

He didn’t smile. He didn’t speak. He just looked deep and cold, like he saw something in me he hadn’t noticed before.

And maybe that’s when everything changed. Because instead of fear, I felt something else… something warm and terrifying at the same time. He wasn’t supposed to be gentle. He wasn’t supposed to look this human. But at that moment, he did.

Don’t fall, Liora. Don’t be stupid.

I looked away before he could see the truth in my eyes. But I already knew. I was in trouble.


I took my sister’s place to save my family.
Now I’m trapped in a life that could destroy me. I never wanted anything to do with the mafia. But when my twin sister disappeared without a word, I had no choice. I had to become her, the wife of Draven Damian, a dangerous and powerful mafia boss.

His little boy, Dante, looks at me like I’m his mother.
But Draven’s family sees right through me… and they want me gone.

How long can I keep this lie alive?
And what happens when the man I’m pretending to love… starts falling for me

She lost everything once.
This time, she's taking it all back.

I sit there staring at him, frozen as if time itself has stalled. Of course, it hasn’t—but it feels that way, as I look at the most breathtaking man I’ve ever laid eyes on. Too bad he’s my professor.

Lottie is in her second year at MIT, getting a degree in bioengineering. She’s never been distracted by anyone on campus. Not once. Not until he walked into her classroom and her world tilted.

The problem is obvious: he’s her professor, and he’s ten years older.
The problem she didn’t expect: the electric tingles that shot up her arm when their hands brushed. The sudden, aching need to be near him. To breathe him in.

The problem she never imagined: discovering he’s her fated mate.

How will she handle a truth that could upend both their lives? Will she choose the path that protects them both—or will fate force her hand?


I stand there staring at him for a moment, trying to make sense of what just happened. In the two years Jordan and I have been friends, I’ve seen his dad more times than I can count.
But this is the first time we’ve touched. And the second our hands meet, something sparks.

Charlie has been Jordan's best friend for two years. He’s been in and out of Jordan’s house so often it feels like a second home.
But it isn’t until one ordinary afternoon, two years after meeting Jordan’s dad, that everything changes. One accidental touch. One jolt of something he can’t explain.

Charlie doesn’t know what’s happening to him yet. But he’s about to find out. And when he does, he’ll have to choose: step into the truth fate has been quietly weaving around him—or try to break free from a bond that may not let go.

This is the room.

The same room where Landon once stood, wide-eyed and silent, as I executed three men without hesitation. Where he watched me maim another—slowly, deliberately—because mercy wasn’t part of the equation, I remember the look on his face then: horror, disbelief, something fragile cracking behind his eyes.

And now he’s back.

Not as a witness.

But as the one in chains.

I follow them inside, my footsteps echoing in the silence. I don’t speak. I don’t touch him. But I watch.

Because this isn’t just punishment.

It’s vengeance.


I’ve run this family for ten years. Untouchable. Cold. Ruthless.
I’ve killed before. I’ll kill again.
Nothing shakes me. Nothing gets under my skin.
Until him.
He walked into my bar like he owned the place—swaggering, cocky, sexy as hell. He strutted that tight body like he knew exactly what it did to people. When he stumbled and landed in my lap, I hesitated. Anyone else would’ve had a blade in their throat for touching me without permission.
But then he looked up at me with those amber eyes, and everything before him felt irrelevant.
Now, nothing matters more than making him mine.

Finding out he’s DEA—sent to take me down—wasn’t part of the plan.


Landon is a Senior Special Agent with the DEA. He volunteered to go undercover against Diego Fuentes, even though the pull he felt toward him started long before they met. Now, after witnessing Diego’s brutality and hearing what he does to traitors, Landon knows he’s in too deep.
Will his betrayal cost him everything—including his life?

So I decide that I'm going to have a baby on my own. Then I meet Jett at a party. Tall, dark, and handsome, he is just my type. And when the playboy makes it clear that he's only interested in my body, I don't take offense in the least. Blushing, I ask him to be my sperm donor, the old-fashioned way.

“Lola, I’ll love you for the rest of my life. If I ever break this promise, may heaven strike me down with thunder!”
The vows Ethan Jones made to me ten years ago still rang in my ears.
Yet ten years later, our daughter Lucy was standing in front of me, holding his hand—and the hand of his mistress, Alice.
“I don’t want you, you old, frumpy woman, as my mom. Alice is my mom!”
Not only did Ethan fail to stop Lucy’s cruel words, he looked at Alice with nothing but tenderness in his eyes.
Alice, too, showed no restraint. Right in front of me, she gently stroked Lucy’s little head and smiled.
“Of course. I’m your mom.”
In that moment, I finally understood something clearly—
In this family, I was nothing but an extra.

The moment Darren Gellar walked into the conference room, I felt the blood in my veins freeze.
The new chief, broad-shouldered beneath his badge and radiating cold restraint, was the very man who had been gasping beneath me last night.
My so-called “escort.”
Last night, in the dim hotel hallway, his body had been burning hot. His shirt collar was open, his eyes unfocused and thick with desire.
Now, those same eyes were sharp as knives as he inspected every officer in the room.
“Attention!” Chief Bob’s booming voice snapped me out of my thoughts.
Darren’s gaze swept across the crowd like a searchlight. I lowered my head as fast as I could, wishing I could shove it straight into my scuffed police boots.
God, please don’t let him recognize me.
Because last night, I didn’t just sleep with him. I also…
Memories exploded in my mind like shrapnel.

After my boyfriend got out of prison, I went to see him—only to find a half-dressed A-list actress walking out of his room...

My boyfriend cheated. My best friend interfered. And I had a one-night stand with my boss.
"Hello? Adeline? You and your boyfriend are persons of interest in an investigation concerning the distribution of obscene videos. We need you to come to the station."
At the police station, I watched the sex tape of the two people I trusted most, and my entire world imploded.
But that was also the night I met him—the man who would change everything.
When my ex wouldn't back off, fabricating horrible rumors to destroy my name, Ronald Williams, the powerful CEO I'd spent one incredible night with, stepped forward.
He stood in front of me like a shield. "She's Mrs. Williams now," he said, his gaze cutting into my ex. "As for you? You never had what it takes to please a woman like her."
It was more than just feeling protected. In that instant, I knew I was completely and utterly in love with him.

“You think you can use me and walk away?”
His voice was ice, his hand around her throat.
“You signed the contract, sweetheart. That makes you mine.”

Camila agreed to marry billionaire Asher Reyes to save her dying mother — one year, no strings attached.
But behind his perfect smile lies the truth about her father’s death.
Now she’s trapped in a marriage built on secrets and vengeance, where every kiss feels like a lie.
When love starts to blur the line between victim and enemy…who will destroy whom first?

In six years of marriage, I sacrificed everything for this family.
But my husband, Arthur, poured all his time and energy into another woman. Even worse, my own children wished for his mistress to be their mother.
When I realized I had been completely discarded—left truly alone in this house—something changed.
My eyes fell upon my mother’s Nobel Prize medal, and a fire ignited within me. A resolve of steel hardened my heart: From this moment on, I would live for myself!
Husband? Divorce him. Children? I was done with them.
From now on, I would be the master of my own destiny!
I returned to the laboratory, commanded the podium, and claimed the very same honors my mother once held.
But when I finally shoved the divorce papers into Arthur’s hands, his world—and the children’s—collapsed.
His initial flash of rage instantly crumbled. With bloodshot eyes, he fell to his knees before me, his voice hoarse and broken.
"Irene... I’m begging you... please don't leave me..."

My name is Katniss. I'm a powerhouse at work, but a failure as a wife.
My husband has cheated on me with countless women: his secretary, his first love, his childhood friend...
But it wasn't until I saw him walk into a hotel with another woman that I finally decided I couldn't take it anymore.

"You will have to satisfy him, wife"

My husband hates me enough to offer me to another man for one night. But when that night shatters everything he thought he knew about me, his hatred turns into something far more dangerous obsession.

"Arthur! Ah... ah... mmm... fuck... yes..."
I came to my husband that day not only because I missed him and wanted to make love with him.
Most importantly, after three years of trying to conceive, I was finally pregnant!
But when my sister appeared before me with the same pregnancy report, I realized this marriage had completely changed.
When he trusted the rumors and personally fed me abortion pills, our eighteen years of love finally came to an end.
My heart turned to ashes as I left without looking back.
Later, at the engagement party of the rising investment mogul Howard Miller...
I appeared in a gorgeous gown, radiant and stunning, while my fiancé Howard kissed the back of my hand with deep affection and respect.
Arthur, usually so composed and elegant, lost all control, his eyes red with fury...
