Three years ago, a car accident shattered Oliver Icefall’s face, career, and life. Now he’s in Ireland to find the man responsible and make him pay.

Addison Yarrow spent her life cleaning up her brother’s messes. When Kyle vanishes, leaving his young daughter’s future uncertain, Addy follows his trail straight to Oliver’s door—the man her brother destroyed, who has every reason to hate her.

Oliver hasn’t left the house in months. The blinds stay closed. The world stays out. Until Addison.

With a custody hearing looming and a brother who doesn’t want to be found, Addy needs Oliver’s help. But the closer they get to Kyle, the harder Oliver finds it to hate a Yarrow.

Soft, elegant, and reserved, Valentina Bruno is the only daughter of the deceased mobster, who’s lived her entire life hidden from the world. Raised in a gilded cage, Valentina is now a pawn for her brother’s greed.

She’s not going without a fight.

In order to ruin her brother’s plans, Valentina must rid herself of the one thing prized above her life: her virginity. If she can find someone to take it, she becomes free of his control. All that’s left is to find a willing participant.

Briar O’Brien is the reclusive, reckless hacker and brother to the Irish O’Brien clan’s leader. He’s been estranged from the family since he was fifteen, but he’s returned to Boston to assist his sister. First order of business? Kill the Bruno pest who keeps trying to destroy her.

All his plans for revenge fall apart, when his eyes land on Valentina—until she botches his assassination attempt. But their initial distrust leads to a star-crossed romance and obsession neither can deny.

As they navigate mafia politics, strained loyalties, and their families at war, they will have to risk everything for a love that never should have been—or lose each other to a doomed fate.

Will their love survive, or will old family hatred keep them apart?

Promises.

They’re easy to make.

Even easier to break.

Which is why it’s nearly impossible for me to believe

a man I don’t know when he promises me the one thing

I’ve always desired:

Freedom.

But when I risk everything by faking my death

and showing up at his home,

he remains a man of his word,

vowing to help me escape the life I was forced into.

As I wait for my chance at a new beginning,

I offer to be the nanny for his little girl,

never expecting her to steal half my heart,

while her father,

a dangerous man who somehow becomes my safe haven,

claims the other.

And for the first time in my life,

I’m forced to question what I want more:

The freedom I’ve always dreamed of…

Or the family I’ve never had.

There’s only one problem.

Even in death, my husband will find me.

And he’ll stop at nothing to destroy me.

But to get to me, he’ll have to go through the one man

willing to burn the world down to keep me safe.

The only man my heart has ever beat for:

Alessandro Alarie.

Everyone in town knows Samuel Lee is a reckless playboy who lives in his successful older brother's shadow. And honestly? I’ve accepted that. Why bother trying when everyone expects you to fail? If you're going to be labeled “The Spare,” you might as well have a good time doing it.

But when my grandfather’s will drops a bombshell, the party comes to a screeching halt. His legacy hangs on one impossible condition. I have to settle down, marry, and prove it’s real.

With time running out and my pockets running dry, there’s only one woman who can make this work. And I’ll need a damn miracle to convince her to wear my wedding ring. Because Alexis Patterson despises the very ground I walk on.

This is more than marrying my old childhood friend. If I manage to persuade this strong willed beauty to consider this, how do I walk away when it’s over? I’m certain when the lines between fake and real begin to blur, it will be torture. I already know I want it all: the vineyard, the town’s respect, and the love of the one woman who was always supposed to be by my side.

This is a standalone contemporary romance, but don't miss reading The Bitter Rival. This is his brother, Sebastian's book. It is the first book in the Bittersweet series where Sam is first introduced.

The crown of Tenebral was never meant for Reyes Cruz Calderón.

He took it anyway.

Princess Aireya Alcántara came to Tenebral to celebrate her cousin's first blessing. By dawn, the king is dead and a stranger sits on the throne: the bastard prince no one knew existed, commanding shadows that answer only to royal blood.

He wants the infant heir. Aireya refuses to surrender her.

So Reyes offers a bargain: remain in his court for one month. If, at the end of it, she still believes the child isn't safe with him, he won't stand in her way.

Aireya has no magic, no allies, and no reason to trust the man who seized a kingdom by the sword. But as assassins slip past the castle walls and enemies gather beyond them, Reyes proves far more difficult to hate than the ruthless conqueror she expected. And the princess who challenges him at every turn becomes indispensable to a court that isn't hers-and to a king who needs a queen.

Aireya has spent her entire life being told where she belongs.

Reyes is determined to convince her it's beside him.

But Tenebral is built on secrets, and Reyes is keeping more than his share-about Aireya's family, her past, and truths she was never meant to uncover.

In a court of shadows, everyone claims to be protecting her.

Aireya is about to discover what that protection has cost her-and what happens when she finally chooses for herself.

Filled with simmering tension, razor-sharp banter, political intrigue, dangerous magic, and an achingly slow-burn romance, The Bastard Prince is perfect for readers who love:

⚔️ Enemies to lovers
👑 Political marriage
🖤 Morally gray, possessive heroes
🔥 Slow-burn tension
🗡️ Touch-her-and-die devotion
🌑 Shadow magic

Celeste Dawson is drowning in a house full of things that don’t belong to her—heirlooms, junk, secrets, and emotional clutter you can’t just drop off at a donation center… without triggering a ghostly council meeting of ancestors. When she quietly switches jobs, it feels like the first step toward reclaiming her life. The only problem? She “forgot” to tell Owen Becker, her closest friend at work… until she’s already halfway out the door.

Owen doesn’t get it. He doesn’t get why she’s leaving. He doesn’t get why it feels like a personal crisis. And he definitely doesn’t get that he’s in love with her. He just assumes he’s stressed. Or tired. Or maybe developing an allergy to feelings.

But as Celeste tries to dig herself out of a house that’s swallowing her whole, and Owen tries to dig himself out of debt and denial, they both start to realize that some messes aren’t meant to be tackled alone.

My brother's best friend was my first crush.

My first what-if.

My first mistake.

If I'd known falling into bed with the guy I'd spent years crushing on would be the spark to blow up my world, I would've ran in the opposite direction. Instead, it made me the perfect target, and I was there to take the fall.

They said I started the fire.

That I killed a man.

The jury agreed.

My guilty verdict ignited a wildfire that burned straight through my future and left me with nothing but a prison sentence.

Ten years later, I've rebuild my life. I'm happy and whole—at least that's what I tell myself. It's hard to live your life carefree with a Felony charge hanging over your head.

When a death drags me back home, I'm forced to face the town that nearly destroyed me—and the boy I once loved. He's a firefighter now, rugged and country, with the same damn sexy smile that used to make my cheeks flush. I learned my lesson the first time, so I want nothing to do with him now. Except that hero mentality of his has decided I need his protection.

Someone knows what really happened that day. And the closer I get to finding the truth, the harder it is to stay away from the one man who has no idea who I had to become, or what it cost me.

Some lies don't stay buried.

And this time...we both might burn.

Seven, eight, seal your fate.

He calls himself the Pied Piper.

He thinks he can pull every person Ella fought

to save back into the darkness they crawled out of.

I’m Death. I’ve spent years teaching monsters what happens

when they touch what’s mine.

I have until Christmas morning to cut the strings before he tears

my family apart. Because if I fail, he won’t just take her from me.

He’ll make sure she watches everyone she loves fall first.

I’m not running out of patience.

I’m running out of mercy.

Gage Van Horn hates me.

Or at least, that’s what he wants me to believe.

He’s made my life hell at Stonewall University, and now that the cracks in my perfect little façade are starting to show, he seems determined to tear the rest of it apart.

Especially when he becomes my tutor. Every study session turns into a battle. His hands burn me with every touch, his mouth leaves my knees trembling, and that wicked tongue of his makes me forget why I’m supposed to hate him.

But Gage sees things no one else does.

He sees past the fake smiles, the wild parties, and the reckless-girl exterior. He sees the loneliness I’ve spent years hiding.

And when the past I thought I’d buried comes back for me, he becomes the only thing standing between me and a dangerous enemy.

Someone is watching me.

Following me.

Getting closer.

Now, the man who spent years trying to break me will do anything to keep someone else from finishing the job.

Even if protecting me destroys him.

Devour this dark, steamy enemies-to-lovers college romance with secret societies, obsession, dangerous secrets, and a vicious hero who would burn the world down to keep her safe.

He studies monsters. She shares DNA with one. Now they're hunting a copycat killer determined to finish what her twin brother started.

As a former rescue squad firefighter, Dallas Garrity knows danger when he sees it. As the newest behavioral analyst for the Remington Police Department, he knows evil when he sees it, too. When a body turns up with all the signatures of the city’s most notorious serial killer, Dallas knows he must break the case and bring Ezekiel Murphy’s copycat killer to justice.

He just never expected he’d have to work with the one person who almost broke him to do it. Wren is rapier sharp. A highly dedicated police officer. Passionate. Fierce. Gorgeous.

She’s also Ezekiel Murphy’s twin sister.

Wren Lennox is no stranger to hard work. After all, she had to bury herself in it just to prove her worth after her brother murdered a dozen rookie cops five years ago. Being paired with Dallas to catch a copycat isn’t ideal, but she’s hidden her feelings for him before. She’ll do whatever it takes to get this job done.

No matter how much Dallas knows about her past. No matter how much she still wants him now.

As secrets unravel and their chemistry burns hotter than ever, Dallas and Wren must stay a step ahead of not one killer, but two. Before it’s too late for them both.
