Powerless

4/21/2024
She is the very thing heā€™s spent his whole life hunting. He is the very thing sheā€™s spent her whole life pretending to be. Only the extraordinary belong in the kingdom of Ilyaā€”the exceptional, the empowered, the Elites. The powers these Elites have possessed for decades were graciously gifted to them by the Plague, though not all were fortunate enough to both survive the sickness and reap the reward. Those born Ordinary are just thatā€”ordinary. And when the king decreed that all Ordinaries be banished in order to preserve his Elite society, lacking an ability suddenly became a crimeā€”making Paedyn Gray a felon by fate and a thief by necessity.

Bride

4/14/2024
A dangerous alliance between a Vampyre bride and an Alpha Werewolf becomes a love deep enough to sink your teeth into in this new paranormal romance. Misery Lark, the only daughter of the most powerful Vampyre councilman of the Southwest, is an outcastā€”again. Her days of living in anonymity among the Humans are over: she has been called upon to uphold a historic peacekeeping alliance between the Vampyres and their mortal enemies, the Weres, and she sees little choice but to surrender herself in the exchangeā€”again... Weres are ruthless and unpredictable, and their Alpha, Lowe Moreland, is no exception. He rules his pack with absolute authority, but not without justice. And, unlike the Vampyre Council, not without feeling. Itā€™s clear from the way he tracks Miseryā€™s every movement that he doesnā€™t trust her. If only he knew how right he wasā€¦. Because Misery has her own reasons to agree to this marriage of convenience, reasons that have nothing to do with politics or alliances, and everything to do with the only thing she's ever cared about. And she is willing to do whatever it takes to get back whatā€™s hers, even if it means a life alone in Were territoryā€¦alone with the wolf.

Wreck the Halls

12/17/2023
Melody Gallard may be the daughter of music royalty, but her world is far from glamorous. She spends her days restoring old books and avoiding the limelight (one awkward tabloid photo was enough, thanks). But when a producer offers her a lot of money to reunite her motherā€™s band on live tv, Mel begins to wonder if itā€™s time to rattle the cage, shake up her quiet lifeā€¦ and see him again. The only other person who could wrangle the rock and roll divas. Beat Dawkins, the lead singerā€™s son, is Melodyā€™s oppositeā€”the camera loves him, he could charm the pants off anyone, and his mom is not a potential cult leader. Still, they might have been best friends if not for the legendary feud that broke up the band. When they met as teenagers, Mel felt an instant spark, but itā€™s nothing compared to the wild, intense attraction that builds as they embark on a madcap mission to convince their mothers to perform one last show.
