Once upon a time, Trevor and I shared one magical night—until he destroyed my biggest career dream. I swore him off… and the fantasy of happily ever after. Fast-forward to Valentine's Day, when I catch my boyfriend kissing someone else—and Trevor sees it happen. Instead of gloating, Trevor...

Tick. Tick. Tick... The clock on the wall moved, the hands winding round and round, yet time stood still. There seemed to be no end in sight; only a beginning that had been frozen in place. Ophelia knew her life was different than those around her. She was the only daughter to the King. The only one of his eight children who did not contain a lick of power. And for that, she paid dearly. Until the day her power showed itself, Ophelia was trapped inside the castle at her father's behest, unable to run the fields of wildflowers, unable to breathe in the fresh breeze.

Three generations of Palestinian-American women living in Brooklyn are torn between individual desire and the strict mores of Arab culture in this heart-wrenching story of love, intrigue and courage. Set in an America at once foreign to many and staggeringly close at hand, A Woman Is No Man is a story of culture and honour, secrets and betrayals, love and violence. It is an intimate glimpse into a controlling and closed cultural world and a universal tale about family and the ways silence and shame can destroy those we have sworn to protect. 

When I wake up in the morgue, I know it’s time to move on… When people think of shifters, they always bring up the predators: wolves, bears, big cats. But prey shifters exist, too; the bunnies, the hedgehogs, and my old childhood nemesis, Roxy, who was an adorable raccoon and a huge headache. Then there’s me. Honey Morgan, one in a long line of Virginia opossums—and who has a tendency to ‘play dead’ at the worst possible moments. For nearly my whole life, I’ve managed to live among humans who have no clue that I’m a supe.

Rach is a down-on-her-luck, happy-go-lucky kind of lady. Sure, she may work as an assistant to personal assistants, crash on her ex-boyfriend’s couch, and hide a whole secret past. But, mostly, things are great.

Daddy Jack calls me his Princess and tells me he’ll protect me from the big bad world. But how can he protect me from the way being near him stirs my body to life and fills me with forbidden desire? How can he protect me from my…Heat Cycle? My parents died before they could tell me what I am. I never had a Were Mark, so they thought it would be safe to leave me ignorant of my heritage—my birthright as a Female Were. So I had no idea why my body started behaving so strangely when Daddy Jack showed up.

He promised just to protect me. So why do I crave his touch? I never thought I’d end up here—pregnant, broke, and abandoned by my no-good husband. Dirk stole every penny from our bank account and vanished, leaving me with nothing but two pink lines on a stick and a belly full of his child. With nowhere else to turn, I knock on the only door left to me—his older brother’s. Connor Hayes is everything Dirk isn’t—strong, dependable, protective…and off-limits.

My name is Zoe and I have committed Sins of the Flesh. But it’s not my fault—none of it would have happened if they hadn’t kidnapped me that fateful day... They took me and my mother and forced us to become part of their Pack. I didn’t even know I had Were blood until they took us. But then my body started changing—developing in ways it never had before. I started having cravings…longings. But I wasn’t allowed to look at any of the Alphas.

Ever since she came to live with my family, Delilah has been a little ray of sunshine in my life. There are no blood ties between us, but she’s still my little sister and I adore her. That is I did, until my parents died in an accident, which suddenly made me Packmaster of our Pack. I tried to comfort Delilah, but I found myself wanting her in a way that wasn’t right. I put some distance between us but then Delilah started getting into all kinds of trouble.

They came and took us in the middle of the night - kidnapped us and locked us in an attic - me and my stepbrother Jake. They’re some kind of cult - the Worshipers of the Moon - and they say that Jake and I are the last of the Royal Weres. We’re the last two with the blood of the First Wolf and because of that, we’re their only hope.

I lied to protect her… but now I’d burn the world to keep her. It started as a lie. I found the letter in my cellmate’s trash—his little sister reaching out, just wanting a connection. I missed my own sister, so I wrote back, pretending to be him. Just one letter. One lie. But I couldn’t stop. By the time I got out of prison, I only meant to give her one good memory—proof her "brother" was doing okay. But Sunny wasn’t what I expected. She was sunshine in human form… and the Wolf in me roared that she was mine.

The labyrinth is changing, and so are the kings… Every step deeper into the maze brings new horrors—deadlier traps, darker magic, and screams that follow us through the night. The labyrinth doesn't just want us lost. It wants us broken. And the four fae kings at my side? They're becoming far...

Matt Dahlia was a recent college grad with no direction in his life: his business was dead on arrival and all his friends had left town. He was broke and searching for belonging in a world that didn’t understand him. That is, until he serendipitously met Thomas, who not only felt the same way he did, but had a project in mind: Together, along with two more like-minded strangers, they were going to move into a one-bedroom apartment and film themselves doing 30 things they had never done before in 30 days.
