Everything was perfect until a powerful curse transformed my sleek wolf body into something horrific. Vile and evil, he never gave me a chance to explain. He simply saw me for what I had become and ordered the pack to kill me, before I could spread the madness of the curse to anyone else. Rejected by the man I loved and on the run from the people who I once called friends, I can’t stop moving. But I can’t keep this up forever. I must find a cure for my curse. To do that, I’ll have to journey to a place I’ve only ever heard of, but never seen: the Library of Avalon. 

Erin Chambers is leaving the FBI to join her father in his Big Cat Investigative Agency. She loved her job, but she wants to be closer to her father and have more freedom to run as a jaguar shifter when she can. But she knows dealing with her dad’s sole private investigator, Jason Biggerstaff, is going to take some work. He’s a hot jaguar and turns up the heat whenever he’s around her without any effort at all, to her consternation. But he’s not fond of the FBI, and she and he butt heads all the time.

I’ve seen enough brokenhearted saps crying over lost love to know love doesn’t really exist. Infatuation, sure. Lust, absolutely. But true love? Please. That’s strictly fiction, folks. Unfortunately, I haven’t convinced my best friend and business partner of that. The guy’s still a believer in happily ever after, despite having met—and lost—“the one” more times than I can count. And that’s pretty damn high, since I’m the numbers guy behind our hot new start-up. Tonight, I wish I had my buddy’s technical skill set.

Roxie Esposito just opened a board game café in San Francisco and should be basking in success. Instead, she's picking out shards from her last relationship and handling her perpetually drunk mother, both of which strain her finances and fuel the need for a roommate. Melody Roberts finally got the promotion she'd been aiming for - across the country in San Francisco. The perfect escape from her stagnant life and the toxic relationship with her now ex-boyfriend. The moment Mel answers Roxie's ad for a roommate, the connection between them is explosive, warm, and real.

My mate didn’t just reject me. He tried to have me killed. Now, if I want to stop something terrible from happening, I’m going to have to track down the man who broke me, and save his life.

One moment, I’m living my life, using my magical skills to round up rogue sprites and restless ghosts for the Bounty Hunters Guild. The next, I’m being kidnapped by a smoking-hot, sword-wielding warrior man and dumped in front of an elder god. Things didn’t get any better after that. It might have been my fault. Maybe telling a god that he isn't very good at his job wasn’t the best way to make a first impression. Of course, when that job is "warden of a supermax prison of paranormal perps located under Mount Olympus", maybe he shouldn’t have let one escape in the first place.

We said it was over. We were wrong. I thought I was finally free to love the man of my dreams. To bear his children, and be his mate. Then the true enemy revealed himself, turning my fantasies to nightmares. Threatening the man I love, the future I long for, and the people my blood was born to protect. I chose this bond. I chose this life. And I will do whatever it takes to defend it. Even if it costs me my life.

It always happens when you least suspect it. Love. The chemistry. The pull. Even when you don’t want it to. Timing - it’s a bitch. And then you have to make a choice. Do you regret what is, or what isn’t? Because when love’s involved, there’s always regret. And my story is no exception.

Ice Princess. That's what the kids at St Peter's High call seventeen-year-old Julia Parsons, the girl who doesn't show emotion. But that all changes when Julia loses the protection of her late mother's charmed necklace, and the emotions that have been locked deep inside her are unleashed. Now, after years of priding herself on being calm, cool and collected, Julia is forced to accept two life-altering revelations—she can feel just as deeply as any other teen and her emotions can make paintings come alive.

Did I know? Did I know the difficulty I’d face when I submitted to God’s plan? An unlikely candidate, I admit. Which perhaps makes my story even more remarkable. I was just a poor girl from an insignificant town. Never once had I imagined my life would be any different from any other. And yet God chose me. He chose me to bring His Son into the world - just a humble girl with great love for my Father. It wasn’t a journey without struggle. With great joy comes great sorrow. With great privilege comes great responsibility. With great love comes great loss. This is my story.
