Emerson LeBlanc doesn’t enter society much. He only ventures out in pursuit of new art for his collection. It starts with a haunting painting. Then he meets the artist. Innocent Daphne Morelli is more exquisite than anything he’s ever seen. He becomes obsessed with her. It doesn’t matter that she’s a living, breathing person with her own hopes and dreams. She’ll be the perfect addition to his collection.

I'm Alice, and for years, I've had dreams about talking to the Devil. They're not nightmares. In fact, they're far from it. Our conversations are innocent, but certainly not normal. Though, if I'm honest, I'm not even sure what about my life is . . . I always thought that someday my namesake would prove true, and I'd get a fairy tale of my own. After all, I live in a world where magic exists, so why not hope? However, instead of a rabbit, what came to whisk me away was a vicious beast with green eyes. And instead of taking me to Wonderland, it dragged me kicking and screaming to Hell.

My father made a deal with the devil, and it backfired on both of us. Now he’s gone, and my family’s future is in my traitorous hands. I almost married Aiden DeSantis, even knowing the truth. Even hoping I was wrong. I have to end a war. Save my family. And uncover a conspiracy. There’s just one giant problem: Aiden and I are on opposing sides, and he’ll do anything to reclaim me.The hate between our families runs deep. The clock is counting down before Aiden’s patience snaps. Now, if only I could figure out if he wants me, or to use me.

People may call me an "overachieving ice queen," but I would do anything for the people I love. So when my friends ask me to host an event at their famous farm, I'm more than happy to help… until I discover I've been set up.

It was supposed to be a one-time thing. Nothing more than a momentary lapse in sanity with my best friend's stepbrother that we agreed to never speak of again. Simple. Or at least it should've been, considering we didn't even like each other. But the universe has a sick sense of humor, because after avoiding Holden for the better part of a year, we both end up at Hadley University. To make matters worse, he lives right across the hall from me. He's everything I shouldn't want. Arrogant. Reckless. Crude. And worst of all? He wants to finish what we started a year ago.

I need to tear my eyes away from Jake Jacobs—immediately. One glance at the hot older lawyer, and I knew I was in trouble. Jake unwrapped me like his little Christmas present, even though I was his new employee who he absolutely shouldn't have claimed... He wasn't the only one that broke the rules at his law firm. Jake's associates, Zachary and Thomas, also made my body tingle in ways that it never had before.

After discovering my true heritage, I'm finally back to training at the academy so that I can become the powerful fae I was always meant to be. My four seductive instructors are by my side, and the realm is finally healing after years of conflict between the courts. Until one of the fae at the academy is murdered, and then another. It looks like the killer is a dangerous wolf-like beast, one lashing out at random victims by instinct. But I'm not convinced. Storms are brewing in the skies once again. Shadows loom on the horizon. The Dark Fae are coming. And they're coming for me.

I made it to the top, among the richest of the rich. But I have one more goal in my sights . . . to become a member of the illustrious Vanguard Society. Being a billionaire is not enough to join their ranks. I just need one thing to win their trust: A fiancée.

More innocent victims are taken as the atrocities of the war between races continue, and Kenna’s desire to protect her people drives her to reckless behavior, dragging her chosen with her. The closer she gets to taking the throne, the more she sees the devastating toll that being the princess has on those she loves, leaving her questioning whether loving her is truly worth the cost. With each passing day, the queen’s men close in, relentless in their pursuit, and when the unthinkable happens, the rebellion is left picking up the shattered pieces of what remains.

My name is Zayn Bronsyn, and I think I screwed up. I wasn't supposed to fall, especially not for her. She's in a league of her own, and I'm just her brother's scumbag friend. The last time I saw her, she was thirteen with braces. Now, she's back from boarding school with an hourglass body that'll bring me to my knees. If Easton finds out I hooked up with his sister, he might actually kill me. She's too innocent, too perfect for a guy like me, but I can't resist dragging her into my messed-up world. Amelia Donovan might be the one to revive my blackened heart.

For Sienna Faremin, staying alive has been merely a byproduct of the torture she received for over a decade. Running one mission after another for the Magick council, she is nothing more than their personal assassin, leaving her hands bloodier than most. When she's tasked with killing a man believed to be the last surviving member of a Guardian family, Sienna accepts, only to discover the man she's supposed to kill is none other than Daxon Ward, one of only two survivors she saved the night the Guardian academy burned to the ground.

Deva Kent spent most of her life dreaming of escaping. She hated being forced to live among the Fellowship of the Enlightened, the small community closed off from the rest of the world, and was desperate to spread her wings and discover something new. When she applied to be a nanny for a single father and his two-year-old son, the Fellowship wasn't happy, but she knew that was her fresh start. However, she never thought she'd end up falling for the man with more baggage than he could carry and storm clouds in his eyes.

All I wanted was to be free for just one night. Free to make my own mistakes, to do something daring and crazy. Something my parents would hate. Chase was perfect in that capacity. He was everything I could ever want in a one-night stand. The sexy-as-hell bad boy from the wrong side of the tracks was a walking, talking, fantasy come to life. My fantasy. He turned my world upside down that night. And it wasn't until I saw him a year later that I realized I'd never really gotten over him. The scary part? Chase never forgot about me, either.

This is the filthy, gritty, angsty soap opera you never knew you needed. Welcome to The Marriage Auction.

Ky Puru is the best chance anyone has to get the soul of the Golden Dragon Wyvern back. Nothing will stand in his way - not demons, not witches, not even the king of hell himself. There's only one problem. Jada, the thief, is a succubus...and his true mate. Jada needs to get away from her coven and find a life she can call her own. If it involves baked goods instead of blood, that would be great. But, that's not going to happen, and this sexy dragon warrior that wants to claim her as his mate is the reason why.

My grandfather still wants me dead, especially after I foiled his plot to annihilate the shifter race. He's planning revenge - not just against me, but also my mates and our unhatched eggs. I can't help but be suspicious when the fae claiming to be my father suddenly wants to be part of my life, forcing my mates and me to follow him to the mystical fae realm, a mysterious place that leaves me with more questions than answers and fills my heart with dread. If we survive the fae, an even darker fate awaits us.

For him, Sturgis Motorcycle Rally is like heaven on earth. For her, it's a living hell. Jonas "TwatKnot" Murphy descends on Sturgis with a fairly simple plan. 1. Drink his weight in alcohol. 2. Get laid. 3. Live Bike Week to the fullest. Offending the curvaceous bartender was not on that list. Nor was chasing after her to apologize. But she's under his skin now, and even her smart mouth won't stop him now.

Thorne Point sunk its claws in me at a young age. I refused to let its harsh truths snuff out my light. When an attempt to kidnap me is stopped, I know they'll never give up. The city's seedy underbelly won't let me escape forever. My only choice is to run into the arms of monsters for safety. The Crows have a terrifying reputation, and Levi Astor lives up to it. But my protective monster will never be worse than the ones who buried their ugliness deep in me.

I hate Simon Banks. I also hate tequila. The first makes my blood boil with his devilish smirk and giant . . . ego. The second makes me do questionable things. Specifically, with Simon. Fine. Whatever. It's a blip on my radar. Even though I can't stop thinking about memories of our night . . . or his hands . . . and that mouth. But I have more important things to do—like finally opening my dream restaurant in the small town of Rolling Hills. There's just one problem—he lives here.

Two thousand years. That's how long my fated mates have been trapped in the bowels of hell. And I'm their only shot at freedom. I thought my magic was strong. I thought I was unstoppable.

And how can I convince my mates to flee when they've been under his spell for so long? My only hope rests with my unpredictable magic and in outsmarting a demon hunter whose thirst for torture rivals his cunning.
