Broken, but not beaten.
Cami has been betrayed by her Triad, her heart shredded into tiny pieces.
But reprieve is impossible as attacks come from all sides. Those in power want the trial to fail more than anything and they aren’t the only ones who want her gone from Melbak.
Cami is forced to rely on the Triad that broke her, but that doesn’t mean she’s forgiven them.
With her shadow man Eyke by her side, she fights to stay safe in a world that doesn’t accept her.
But what secrets is he holding, and can she truly trust him?
Can her heart mend enough to forgive her Triad and work together to save Melbak?
Sometimes blood can wipe all debts clean.
He’s watching me—the man on my neighbor’s roof. And I think I like it.
My body comes to life under his gaze. All I can think about is the way this man would feel against my skin.
Until our connection snaps and suddenly he’s gone.
In my sleepy neighborhood, everything is exactly how it should be as I settle in on this quiet Halloween.
Then, in the dead of night, he’s here in my home.
Tempting me with his touch, refusing to tell me his name.
Only one night—that’s all he offers. And that’s all I’m willing to give.
When I wake up the next morning, I’m not surprised he’s already gone.
But nothing about the night makes sense, and with no evidence of it ever happening, I’m left questioning everything.
Only One Night is a Halloween novelette. A quick and wild ride meant to get you hot and bothered, then leave you wondering what on earth you just read. Only One Night is a dark, women's fiction, short story that has no HEA. This is not a romance. The story was created for you, the reader, to be able to live out your Halloween fantasies through the pages of this book. The female main character remains nameless and description-less, with minimal details of her life mentioned, so you can envision her any way you choose.
Everyone has skeletons in the closet. Mine are just a bit… crazier, than most.
I’ve spent most of my adult life keeping a low profile and flying under the radar. Because my past is better off staying in the past.
Now I’m living my best life in Alexandria with my three besties. We have a new place, new jobs, and for once I’m feeling optimistic where life has taken me.
When I save a sassy older omega from a creeper at a bar, she thanks me by setting me up on a blind date. Though she left out the part about it being with five men. And all it takes is one amazing date to question my usual stance on keeping everyone but my besties at arm’s length.
Of course, just as things seem like they could be perfect, my past comes crashing back in. Now I find myself in a world of mafia men, drugs, and the cult that just won’t let me go.
Can my new pack and I find a way to lay those skeletons to rest? Or will I be forced to be the omega my parents always wanted me to be?

A human girl ... a mysterious stranger ... a forbidden attraction ... a deadly craving...
All Blaire wants is to survive the tedium of yet another family summer vacation to Greenrock Island, Michigan with her best friend Jack and their parents. She's counting down the days until she can escape to college as far away from her parents as possible.
But something feels off this summer. Their parents lock themselves away in the den and day-drink, leaving Blaire and Jack to entertain themselves. And then there is the hot guy with intense green eyes who Blaire caught a glimpse of on the ferry...the one she can't stop thinking about.
***
Roman feels compelled to visit Greenrock with his sister Ellis for the summer. And when Blaire shows up unexpectedly in their very private hideaway, he's convinced she is a danger to them. But his cravings for her go far beyond anything he has ever felt before. Either way, he has to keep her away from them, for everyone's sakes.
Because Roman has a huge secret...one that has the potential to end Blaire's life, if he succumbs to it. But Blaire has a secret too—she just doesn't know it yet...
As the pair struggle against their need for one another, forces beyond their control are gathering, preparing to converge on Greenrock and tear apart everything the two hold dear.

Revenge is imperative ... Resisting each other is impossible ...
Seven has spent her life inside the gray, windowless walls of Taiga. She’s been taught to hate Purebloods with a fiery passion, but she’s learned to hate her captors all on her own. She dreams of revenge, of painting the walls with their blood.
When she finds herself outside unexpectedly, rolled out in a cage like a circus freakshow, things go sideways fast … but the voice in Seven’s head whispers one word: Mine …
A few weeks later, back inside Taiga, the whisper repeats it. And the new hybrid it’s directed at seems very chummy with the head of Operation Stranger …
***
Jack wants the monster inside him gone. He never asked for this, he resents what he is becoming.
When Agent Baxter offers him a bargain: complete some small tasks, and the Operation will suppress Jack’s monster so he can return to his old life, he jumps at the opportunity.
But then his monster starts roaring Mine on repeat … and he can’t stop thinking about the tawny-skinned hybrid the monster is obsessing over.
Jack knows where that sort of attraction heads when you’re a Stranger—even a half-breed one. And it’s something he wants to avoid at all costs.
But when Jack and Seven are forced to face their connection, under the most horrific circumstances, they’re left with only two options.
Escape … or revenge …
There’s only one way they can have both—but can they work together, without succumbing to the call of their blood

Sometimes one night is all it takes...
A year and a half of therapy has barely put a dent in the guilt Amanda McGregor still feels over her ex boyfriend. And she hasn’t even mentioned to her therapist how much she dislikes her body.
So when her flatmate Alison comes up with a plan to help Amanda get over her guilt - a plan that involves alcohol and flirting…and maybe a little pool sharking…Amanda goes along for the ride…
…Levi Fox has finally extricated himself from a toxic relationship, and he just wants to focus on his next goal - qualifying for the Australian Olympic Rowing Team. He’s not looking for a rebound hookup, and he’s definitely not looking for love when he heads out to his local pool bar for a few drinks with his mates…
Sparks fly when the pair meet, and things between the two escalate quickly. But life has a way of throwing a spanner in the works.
Levi faces a bombshell that explodes right in Amanda’s face, flinging the pair headfirst into a situationship with an expiry date that neither of them want to discuss. And with Levi’s ex stirring up trouble, dredging up Amanda’s past and present pain, is the mind blowing chemistry these two share enough for them to build something worth fighting for?

Sex and feelings are a volatile cocktail …
Katarina Drákos has a lot going on. She’s taking the first step towards a musical theatre career, her best friend might be getting deported, and she’s keeping a big secret from her mother.
Oh, and she just can’t stop thinking about the stranger who got her off in a nightclub, then vanished. The stranger who gave her a taste of exactly what she’s been looking for in a man – hot, kinky and dominant.
If only she’d had a chance to explore the explosive chemistry she felt with him …
... Dominic Fournier needs to be in control, especially when it comes to sex. So, when a beautiful mystery girl almost makes him lose it, he escapes just in time. Only he can’t get her out of his head.
When term begins and he returns to his vocal coaching job, his control is tested to its limit. Because the ingenue soprano he’ll be teaching – the one everyone has their eye on – is his mystery girl.
An hour, alone together in Dom’s classroom every week is torture unlike anything either of them have experienced…and it’s only a matter of time before one, or both of them, succumb to their desires…
But can they ever be more … when everything between them must remain a dirty little secret?

She'd given up on love, until he gave her his.
Abigail Bennett has the worst taste in men. Her husband left her for another woman and her boyfriend was a liar and a cheat, so the last thing she wants is another relationship. Sex on the other hand—or her total lack of it—is an ongoing concern. But maybe Wolf can help? And not just in the bedroom.
The annoyingly sexy, dominant author is exactly the type of man she needs to keep her ex-husband and his wandering hands at bay, but Wolf’s help comes with a price, and while Abby is willing to take him into her bed, she’s determined to keep him out of her heart.
Wolf Adams has one month to complete his manuscript and get it to his publisher, or forfeit his substantial advance. Sent to the country on retreat, the city boy is certain the change of scenery will motivate him to finish the book. But when he meets Abigail Bennett, he enters a game of cat and mouse unlike anything he’s faced before.
Unable to resist the voluptuous artisan, Wolf agrees to pose as Abby’s boyfriend and help ward off her ex’s unwanted attention, but only if she helps him finish his book. Because while he's happy to play her games, he has a few rules of his own…
What would you do for a second chance at love?
Jane Melville has done some very stupid things in her life. Having an open sexual relationship with someone who turned out to be a thieving con man and left her standing at the altar—pregnant and penniless—was one of the worst.
With her dreams of owning her own catering business down the drain, and the prospect of working at her family's patisserie for the rest of her life looking more and more likely, Jane is determined to make the most of her misfortunes. After all, things could be worse. Her baby daddy might have turned out to be the con man instead of the tall, brooding lawyer, Rafael Bennett. But just because she's willing to have a baby with the man doesn't mean she has to like him.
Rafe Bennett's life has been one of responsibility and heartache. A long time ago, he was forced to give up the girl of his dreams, then made to bear the brunt of her anger for his trouble. In the years since, he has shared his bed with Jane Melville more times than he can count, snatching moments of erotic bliss whenever he can, but when she chose to marry someone else, Rafe walked away for good. Or so he thought.
When fate thrusts Jane back into his life—complete with baby on board—Rafe seizes the opportunity with both hands. He lost her once and never truly got her back, but he's determined to change their fate. He knows in his heart that with a little persuasion and a whole lot of cake, everything will be different this time around!
He was her first love. She was his only.
Mia Caldwell knows how to get stuff done. Armed with a plan to transform her family home into a veteran’s retreat, she employees the help of her childhood friend and former crush, Oliver Bennett. But banging the sexy blacksmith wasn’t on her to-do list.
No longer an awkward teenage boy, Ollie is all man now with a successful business, a panty-melting smile and a body that would make Thor jealous. But he’s not the only one who’s changed. Mia isn’t the same naïve teenager she was when she left Melville’s Cross and she isn’t afraid to go after whatever—or whomever—she wants.
Oliver Bennett knew from the first day they met: Mia Caldwell was the girl of his dreams. She was smart, funny and driven to succeed, not to mention she had a smile that could drop him to his knees and a dominant streak that could keep him where he fell.
All grown up and more commanding than ever, Mia still has the power to bend Ollie to her will, only this time he isn’t holding back. He never told her how he felt way back when and it’s not a mistake he’s willing to repeat, but as their friendship takes a turn into something more scandalous, can he convince Mia to give them the chance he knows they deserve, or is friends with benefits all they’re destined be…?
The only size that matters is the size of your heart.
Sophie Bennett has the world at her feet. As a bonafide plus-sized fashion icon, designers want to dress her, celebrities want to date her, and her Instagram is awash with fans. So why does she feel so alone?
When she shares a midnight kiss with a sexy stranger, what began as an unguarded moment at a New Year’s Eve party evolves into a tantalising game of seduction, a game she surrenders to completely. But Sophie never expected the man who’d rocked her world would turn out to be her new boss. Not good.
Jack Martin succeeds at everything he does. Except relationships. He’s had his heart broken in the worst possible way, but when he spies Sophie Bennett—his celebrity crush—on New Year’s Eve, her vulnerability calls to his Dominant nature and he quickly discovers how sweetly submissive she truly is.
As the new CEO of Martin Cosmetics, Jack can’t afford to get distracted. When Sophie declares their one night stand a mistake never to be repeated, distracted becomes his new normal. He accepts her reasons for pushing him away, especially when photos surface that threaten her hard-earned reputation. But when two little lines appear on a pregnancy test, all bets are off. Sophie Bennett will be his.
He taught her to trust. She taught him to love.
Lucy Barton learned the hard rules exist for a reason. Seventeen years have passed since the devastating day she changed from a fun-loving twenty-three-year-old to the strictly controlled forty-year-old who uses speed dating as a way to scratch her itches without the inconvenience of commitment—not that anyone’s lining up to commit to a woman with only half a face.
When a chance meeting with her new boss, the enigmatic Toby Bennett, promises a wealth of carnal pleasure, she’s faced with two use him to scratch her itch for a night, then cut and run as usual, or stick around for a while and learn the true meaning of control.
Tobias Bennett has always known he was different. His towering height and quiet nature aside, it’s his need for control in and out of the bedroom that sets him apart from most men. While acting as wingman for his twin brother, he comes face-to-face with his new office manager, Lucy Barton.
The wealth of scars trailing down the right side of her face and body intrigues him, but it’s her guarded disposition that has him itching to teach her a lesson she’ll never forget. One night in Lucy’s arms has Toby craving so much more, but she’s a no-strings-attached kind of woman. That’s her golden rule. But Toby knows better than anyone, some rules are meant to be broken.
They kept her hidden from me for fourteen years. Now, she sits in my club, my personal playground, clueless of the repercussions her father placed on her life.
Ava Pierce doesn’t know her world is about to implode and I’ll take pleasure in being the one to destroy her.
