Charlie Henderson thought she had forever mapped out. From childhood best friends to first kisses, she and Keaton Carr were supposed to be untouchable with the kind of love that survived every storm. But betrayal doesn't just bruise, it carves deep. Charlie learns that when she catches the boy who swore she was his everything sleeping with another girl he promised was "just a friend."

I'm the new physical trainer for the Atlanta Reapers hockey team. Which means I'm around shirtless, sweaty, shredded athletes every day. I know I need to keep my personal and professional lives separate, but these three players make that awfully hard. Rhett Lawson, the young right wing, has his eye on me. And with his swoony Georgia twang and playful smiles, he's tough to ignore. Then there's Cole Thibault, the calm, confident, Canadian captain of the team. After helping him rehab his knee, he rewards me with dinner—and more. Finally, Elias Nystrom, the towering goalie from Sweden.

Knot Academy was never meant to save me. It was built to break girls like me—unmated Omegas on the border of insanity with too much rage and nowhere to put it. Once, I was destined for the stage. A ballet prodigy. An acrobat. The Omega who defied gravity and dreamed of escape. But that dream died the night my parents were slaughtered in front of me—punishment for a legacy I never asked to inherit. Now? I don't dance for beauty. I dance to survive. To distract. To destroy. To bleed beneath the lights instead of behind closed doors. Knot Academy is a death sentence.

Moving into my brother's basement after graduating from college isn't the end of the world. But getting stuck working for his best friend just might be. Aside from professionally getting under my skin, Liam Brooks owns the only tattoo studio in our perfect coastal town. He also happens to be the only person within a hundred-mile radius willing to employ me despite my shining resume. The truth is, he needs me, too.

Money. Children. Career. The white picket fence. My life was perfect—or so I thought. That illusion came crashing down the moment I caught my husband balls deep in his secretary. The fool forgot I was the general counsel of his beloved company, and I'd had the sudden realisation that it was time to return to work. Our ironclad prenup had a two-month countdown, forcing my hand to stay in the farce I now called my marriage. Plans were made, and retribution was upon us. If only I'd prepared for my childhood best friend, who soon became my comfort and closest confidante.

Tragedy has left me with nowhere to go. Until my dad's best friends—a stern cop and a cocky electrician—take me in and give me a home. But Cole and Travis are used to being bachelors. Having a young woman to look after is difficult to say the least. Lucky for them, I don't want to be taken care of. I want to push their limits. I want to break their rules. I want them. They're twice my age. Off-limits. Completely forbidden. The longer we live under one roof, the harder it is to pretend there's no chemistry brewing between us. I'm not their responsibility anymore. I'm their temptation.

I should be dead. Hell, I was dead—at least, that's what the world believes. But I don't get the mercy of staying six feet under like the government wanted. Not until I claw my way through the academy that yearns to finish what was started that night. I'd vowed to get back to the men who risked everything to save me—the ones twice my age who should've never looked twice at the naive, bubbly Omega who thought the world wasn't cruel. I learned the hard way. It's merciless.

After a harrowing journey through infected territory, Jane Finch, her loyal Great Dane, and her equally protective almost-zombie Grey have reached the military base in the mountains. It's supposed to be safe. But the last thing they can do is drop their guard. Surrounded by soldiers, reeling from her first kiss with Grey and the news that he has a wife, Jane is separated from Grey. The loss leaves her aching. Then she's thrust into a tenuous role of 'behavioral investigator' for the base. When she uncovers a shocking truth, she's desperate to reach Grey.

The challenge of sharing close quarters with a zombie gets even more complicated when Jane tells her parents about her new arrangement—and they've got a surprise for her, too. Staying in the bunker isn't an option, because the Americans are threatening to nuke the entire area. Grey is regaining pieces of his humanity, but a rescue team won't trust him. Or make space for her Great Dane, Schroddie. And Jane won't leave either of them behind.

Jane Finch wishes her problems ended with a bad commute and no coffee. But when she and her beloved Great Dane, Schrodinger, emerge from a locked room they discover a city changed for the undead. Zombies are everywhere. Some are endlessly cycling through their last actions, others have turned feral—and hungry. Jane and Schroddie's best chance for survival? Reaching her parents' bunker on the city's north shore. Not an easy commute on foot—when surrounded by zombies. Dodging stray bullets and feral zombies is one thing. But soon Jane realizes one of the zombies is following her.

I've loved Drew since I was twenty years old—and after twelve years of marriage, that love has only grown stronger. But lately, the man I married has become someone I no longer recognize. He's moody, short-tempered, and secretive. And then there's her. The woman whose name has cropped up too often for my liking. The woman he swore was just a work colleague. Yes, I was a fighter. But what if I were the only one willing to fight?

Walking away from the love of her life after his betrayal was the hardest thing that Odette had ever had to do, but it wasn't just about her anymore. It was about her daughter, Lux. It was about showing her what she deserved out of this messy thing called life. But what if your past won't give up? Do you forgive and forget, or do you forgive to move on?

The assignment is simple. Don't let the client get kidnapped. Don't let someone kill her. Don't confess that I've secretly been in love with her since we first met. It's the last part that complicates what would otherwise be a fairly routine operation.

The first lesson my father ever taught me was that power is the only currency, loyalty is the law, and always take what you want. When the Mayor of our city begs me to keep his precious daughter safe, I seize my chance to strengthen the DeLuca hold on the town. I’ll keep her safe, but it’ll come at a price. Mia Gordon, the sheltered heiress, must become my wife.

My mother drilled that into my head since I was old enough to walk. Landing Sweetspire's most eligible tycoon might have gotten me away from her, but it turns out a fat diamond ring isn't the best Band-Aid for the rest of your problems. Starting over at thirty-two was never part of the plan. Neither was some twenty-three-year-old who's all too eager to play knight in shining armor.

Knot Academy is a joke. A dumping ground for society's rejects, right in the middle of Harlem. The government wishes we'd just vanish, but they need the Alpha Omega system to keep the world running. That's where I come in. I'm Elizabeth Abercrombie—Harvard's finest dropout Omega, and if one glance at me doesn't scream trouble, the illegal tattoos covering my skin sure do. Five years at this chaos-fueled academy, and not one pack has dared to claim me. I'm the "Forgotten Omega," and I'm fine with that. Or at least I was—until they arrived.

Ever since the magic dried up in Mystic Meadows, Rowe Wadley has fallen on hard times. Her piggycorns aren’t selling, and the family farm is in foreclosure. Then handsome Pane Maddox comes knocking. His pitch: I’m here to save your farm. The hottie isn’t exactly selfless. His own future is on the line. Competing to become president of a luxury hotel chain, Pane has sixty days to whip a struggling business into shape. Which is okay by Rowe—that means putting the privileged and smug city slicker to work.

I'm willing to admit that I shouldn't read spicy scenes in public. But in my defense, the opportunity rarely rises elsewhere. As a single mom and farm owner, my time is stretched thinner than horse hair. Besides, I'd reached a pivotal peak in the story and couldn't put it down. That is, until someone bumps into me. My phone launches into the air like a base hit, but the device is caught before smashing into the ground. It comes as no surprise, considering the guy is a professional baseball star.
