After her messy divorce, Sienna Blake is done with men. She’s trading her wreckage for a sun-drenched future in California until a violent Montana storm sends her car skidding off the road and straight into Blackwood. A town with more cows than people, a thriving fascination with its serial-killer history, and one dangerously attractive rancher who looks at her like she’s already his.
Sterling Hayes didn’t build his empire by letting go of what he wants. And the moment Sienna steps into his town, something inside him wakes up. He knows she doesn’t belong here. He also knows he’s not letting her leave. So he does what any reasonable, wildly unhinged man would do. He steals a few critical car parts and buys himself time. One month to convince her that Blackwood is exactly where she belongs―preferably wrapped up in his sheets, wearing nothing but his flannel.
Sienna refuses to be easy prey. She’s stubborn, sharp-tongued, and far too smart for his dirty cowboy games. Between a mortifying wardrobe malfunction, a drunken bet involving a mechanical bull, and a series of ranch disasters that leave her bruised and furious, she’s determined to prove she won’t fall for him or this town.
But Blackwood has secrets that run deeper than flirtation and far darker than small-town charm. Women have been disappearing in the Montana wilderness, and everyone knows the land remembers blood. When the killer’s attention turns toward Sienna, Sterling’s careful restraint fractures. Because monsters recognize monsters. And the man watching her isn’t just a rancher willing to steal car parts.
He’s the kind of man who knows how to hunt.

Then I fell in love with a boy who can turn into a dragon.
After the events in Veilmar, my only concern is for Blake. Will he survive the monster who possesses him? But as I fight a battle for the soul of the man I love, my dearest friend is up against the greatest danger a dragon rider can ever face.
Meanwhile, as Bloodwing reels from loss and betrayal, an ancient prophecy tightens its grip, and an unexpected triad is rising—one powerful enough to change the balance of power in Sangratha forever.
As the Veil cracks and the dead come back to haunt us, love becomes a weapon—sharp enough to destroy the world or strong enough to forge a new one.

In the Sundered world, there are two options: Ride the dawn, or face what rises in the night.
Twenty years ago, Lirien’s magic fractured the world and unleashed nocturnal creatures that brought civilization to its knees. Amidst the carnage came salvation: The most powerful survivors were invited to board Dawnrider, a high-speed rig that would deliver those aboard into a new era.
The rest of humanity was left to die.
Instead, a king rose from the darkness to lead them.
In the years since, Lirien has dedicated her magic to Dawnrider while secretly plotting to overthrow the tyrant who rules the rig with an iron fist. But just as Lirien is ready to strike against him, she is violently abducted by Vox—the king of the feralists.
The mercurial Vox gives her two choices: Fight the creatures that hunt the night or be fed to them. Lirien agrees to join his ranks, but embarks on a strategy of seduction that will return her to Dawnrider.
Yet as Vox pushes the limits of her magic, Lirien begins to question whether defying the dusk is the true path to salvation. Intoxicated by both Vox and his war against the night, Lirien must decide where her loyalties truly lie—and how far she’s willing to go for redemption.
Never listen to the pleas of the dead.
Never betray the oaths made to the spirits.
Never make a deal with a Hag.
Never trust the Fae.
The Great Elm placed a task upon my soul which only death or triumph can release me from.
I am more than I thought myself to be but less than fate seems to believe I might be.
Hendrix Bane has marked me for death as surely as I have marked him as my enemy. I am trapped in the castle of my adversary and all that passed between us before this moment has been cast aside like ashes from a fire that burned too hot and too fast to bask in.
My sister is lost to me once more and doubts gnaw at my insides. All the things I never wanted myself to believe have forced themselves to the forefront of my mind. Did I even achieve anything in those trees? Or will the world rejoice at my success only to curse my name for their downfall in the end?
I have an impossible task to fulfil and my accomplice in it has nothing but hatred for me in his heart. So now I’m at the mercy of the man who helped me survive the curse of the forest. And his wrath is nothing short of sinful.
I only pray I don’t lose myself to the corruption which has taken hold of him. And I don’t know if I will escape him before I’m consumed by it too.
But maybe that’s what I’m hoping for.

Callista Moran has spent a lifetime putting her own plans aside to care for other people. Once she and Darren Knight announce their engagement, she thinks her future is finally set. But when a routine sailing trip goes tragically wrong, a cyclone blows those carefully made plans away.
Stranded on an island for the next eighteen months alongside the crew and her fiancé’s cousin, Callista discovers a strength she never knew she had. And begins to question the life she always thought she wanted. With Dominic, an ex–army medic, she finds true peace—and a version of herself that she doesn’t need to explain. They resist their connection at first, but as months wear on, and the hope of rescue fades, something real starts taking shape, built on who they are when everything else is stripped away.
When they’re finally found, the world hasn’t changed. But they have. In the height of a modern media frenzy, learning to live as the people they’ve become will challenge not only their definition of survival, but love.
Grief is constant.
It can be as small as a teardrop racing down your cheek, or as vast as the ocean swallowing you in its depths.
It ebbs and flows with the tide, but you can never truly find your way to calm waters. You either choose to fight the current and swim to the top, or let the waves take you under and drown you in your sorrow. Some say grief is a price we pay. That it’s the cost of loving someone with all of your heart. And once they are gone, it’s time to settle the bill.
But what happens when you can no longer afford the toll?
What happens when your grief becomes mixed with anger that is so consuming, you begin to resent the ones who left you behind? What do you do when your tears run out, and you no longer want to swim? When you find yourself traveling down the same road as the ones who raised you?
I didn’t ask to be weaved into their web of lies. I didn’t want to raise a child who is the living embodiment of their betrayal. And I certainly didn’t want to fall in love with my dead fiancé’s brother.
But what do you do when he becomes your reason to swim again?

Bonds will be tested. Power will shift. And old enemies will emerge from nightmares of the past.
As the Night Court’s Inner Circle disperses far and wide, desperate for any advantage against Koschei and his mighty allies, peace hangs by a fragile thread. But hope can be spun from the darkest of shadows, and the Night Court has its own part to play in the looming crescendo.
In the District State of New California, every resident is assigned a soulmate by the all-knowing Algorithma. A perfect match determined by science, not love.
Eliotte Wager has always known who she wants her match to be: Ashton Meeka, the boy she’s loved since childhood. But when the Matrimonial Office reveals her results, Eliotte learns she’s been paired not with Ashton, but with his older brother, Izaak—a man she hates. He’s cold, arrogant…and according to the data, he’s 98.8% compatible.
Eliotte’s faith in the system has been shaky for years, but now, being forced into a marriage she doesn’t want, the world around her becomes unrecognizable. Izaak doesn’t believe in his father’s government, the Science that bound them together, or in love itself. Yet when his rebellion takes a perilous turn, Eliotte discovers the many cracks in the life she knew—and a side to Izaak she never expected.
As scandal erupts around their union and whispers of a revolution grow too loud to ignore, Eliotte and Izaak must rely on each other to survive. And in a system designed to control every move, giving in to what burns between them might be the one true choice they have.

In a world dominated by bite-sized videos, Mia Hollister somehow found the perfect job: writing about life on her ranch. Her column details her zoo of animals, farm-to-table recipes, endless outdoor chores—and people are eating it up. It’s gotten so popular that an entire feature is being produced about her cowgirl lifestyle, complete with a camera crew and director. Which would be fantastic…if she actually lived on a ranch.
In reality, Mia writes from her tiny city apartment. She’d been desperate for a job and loves to write, so why not provide some escapism into a dreamy cowboy world? She may have zero ranching experience, but her friend Arianna’s family owns Copper Creek Ranch, the very place that inspired Mia’s column. With Mia's dream job on the line, Arianna encourages her to head to the ranch early to prep her lie for the feature.
Enter Dane, Arianna’s older brother. He’s been enlisted to teach Mia how to be a cowgirl, though he finds the whole situation preposterous. But Mia isn’t the helpless city girl she appeared to be at first, and Dane isn’t the alpha country boy Mia thought he was, either. Then the unthinkable happens: the crew arrives early. As Mia and Dane scramble to pull off the ultimate ruse, putting out fires around every corner, their own sparks turn into a flame they may not be able to quench.
Once there was a kingdom riven by doomed love: The forbidden affair between Prince Liuprand and Agnes, scion of the House of Teeth, ended in strife, tragedy, and death.
But death is not yet done with the kingdom: Liuprand lives, and his love for Agnes lives within him, and he will do anything to sit the throne with his fallen queen.
In the black peaks of her ancestral home, Marozia names herself queen. Consumed by grief for Agnes and by her unfettered ambition, she seeks out a dark, ancient power that may cost more than she is prepared to give.
In the east, Gamelyn, master of the House of Blood, is determined to right the injustices that have been committed against him. Bound to his destiny, he will endure profane ritual and face soul-shattering trials to forge himself into the sword that will either tear the realm further apart—or bind it again through blood.
Because in a kingdom whose legacy is necromancy and whose future is written in dread prophecy, death is never the end—and fate is illuminated by the cold light of resurrection.
