Heartless Hero by Mary Catherine Gebhard 

"This is and will be, my favorite bully book of all time." International Bestselling Author C.L. Matthews

There are rules to being Abigail Crowne’s bodyguard, rules to watching the infamous billion-dollar heiress, otherwise known as the Reject Princess.
Never forget your place, always put the Crowne name above all else, and never, ever hurt the Reject.
Especially don’t torment the Reject.
Even if she is a spoiled brat.
So when an opportunity presents itself to punish her, you definitely shouldn’t take it.
Then again, Abigail loves to be tortured, and I’ve waited patiently for revenge.
I’ll keep her safe... with cruel protection.
Love is off limits with Abigail Crowne, but no one said anything about hate.

Heartless Hero is the first book in the Crowne Point universe. You do not need to read any of the others to enjoy it, though it is recommended. It will enhance your reading experience as you will catch easter eggs and the timelines overlap.


Entangled in Them by Marissa Farrar

I’ve been given to three men as payment for a job… But what if they don’t want me?


The day I’m shoved into an apartment, landing at the feet of three men, my world changes.

Dillon, Kodee, and Ryan.

They’re more than just business partners… I can tell by the subtle touches, the eye contact, the way they press up against each other. The last thing they’re expecting is a woman coming into their lives.

But now they have me, and while their connection excites me, I’ve brought danger into their home.

I haven’t only been given as payment. They don’t know it yet, but they’re hiding me from the most powerful men in New York.

As the days pass, I find myself entangled in their world. I learn their secrets, their tormented pasts, and they learn mine.

 I never wanted to risk their lives, but what if I don’t have a choice?

Will they sacrifice everything so we can be together…

Or am I somewhere I’ll never belong?


The Book of Wrath Destiny of Dragons book 1 by Billie Jo Williams

Cursed by the corrupt emperor pro tempore and his weak heir, Grand Prince Len, the Imperial Capital of Ay is condemned by an unnatural disaster, known only as the Dark Destruction. Forced to flee and to lead, Len Vallely leans upon his personal protector, Commander Kai Canarbis, but as Kai seeks sanctuary and support, for the inept imperial heirs, the Vallelys must pay for their dynasty’s unconscionable crimes.

Caught in karma’s web, Kai seeks to disentangle Len out of a sticky mess, his only reward being his blossoming romance with Grand Princess Anna. However, having been badly wounded by the herald of the Dark Destruction, even the incredibly accomplished Kai falls victim to circumstance.

A desperate, but doomed quest to save the empire leads across land, sea and ice, into enemy-occupied territory, but as the unfathomable Dark Destruction continues to ravage the realm, there might not be an empire remaining for anyone to claim.



Liar (Madison Kate Series bk 2) by Tate James

Red (Featherstone Academy Series Book 4) 

“To convince a man to marry you, you have to be what they envision. Pretty, quiet, caring, and barefoot in the kitchen.”

My mothers expectations have never waivered. I’m determined to be more, even if it is within the confines of Featherstone Academy. I'm tired of being forced into a mold I don't fit in. I want to be me, however that looks. Finding myself, and understanding what matters is my number one focus, over everything else.

Taking inspiration from my reading obsession, I know what I want my life to look like, but getting it is a completely different issue. I'm trying to keep my love life under wraps so nobody can interfere or watch me crash and burn as I try to lose my weak persona.

My senses are flooded with the new temptations that surround me. The deepest voice that makes my insides melt, a searing hot touch from the campus playboy, and the stormy gaze of the world's biggest jackass. Along with them, comes a deeper exposure into the Featherstone life.

Watching Featherstone close in around my friends, dealing with parental issues, relationship drama, and a stalker, makes me realize I’m drowning in trouble.

Let the sambuca shots burn my throat as I get lost in my own journey of shedding my old skin, and becoming Red.

Red is a 98k word reverse harem romance novel, which means there is more than one love interest, with a #whychoose approach. This book contains consensual steamy scenes including MM, and MFMM. Some scenes may be dark for some readers, so it is recommended for readers aged 17 and over. Red is the fourth book in the Featherstone Academy Series, but the First book in her duet.


Lola—
I hate keeping secrets from my father, but I know he’ll be furious if he finds out where I’m going. That’s a risk I’m willing to take because I know what I’m doing is right.
I expected my father to send someone to find me. He always does.
But this guy?
I’ve never lain eyes on him before; trust me, I’d remember this man.
He’s damn fine; unfortunately he won’t let me seduce him into keeping my secret.
Memphis—
Trouble in a tank top, that’s what this beauty is.
She thinks she can sweet-talk me into getting involved in her deception.
I may want to get wrapped up in her arms, but getting wrapped up in her scheme is a whole other ball game.
Guess again, sweet cheeks.
I don’t care how fine your strut is; it won’t work on me.
I’m immune where the hot-as-hell Club Princess is involved.
My loyalty belongs to my club first, but I’m a nomad for a reason, and letting Lola get her hooks in me is not in my plan.

My father made a terrible mistake. One I’m left paying for.
As a wolf shifter growing up in a strong pack, I should be living my best life. But after my father tried to kill our leader, I’m labelled an outcast, traitor, less than dirt.
When I can't take pack life any longer, I run, but apparently they don't like losing their punching bag. Torin, the leader’s son, drags me back before my first shift... a shift that will reveal my true mate. I never could have predicted who mine would be, but the moment my wolf looks upon him, I’m filled with hope for a brighter future.
Afterall, no one ever rejects their true mate, right?
Wrong. Very wrong.
When the wolves attack, my soul screams for vengeance, and somehow I touch the shadow world. Somehow I bring him to our lands.
The Shadow Beast. Our shifter god. The devil himself.
Turns out being rejected by my mate was only the beginning.
*If you like sexy, dark paranormal romances, with humor, steam, action, a tough heroine and an antihero, this is for you.
Rejected is full length (100k) words, and is book one in Shadow Beast Shifters series. It's recommended for 18+ due to language and sexual situations.

The Realm Between: A LitRPG Saga (Books 1 - 3) by Phoenix Grey Dec 11th

From Book 1: An epic LitRPG saga for fans of The Lord of The Rings, Grimgar, and Dungeons and Dragons.

Will refused to admit to the HR lady at Radical Interactive that he’d never played their debut virtual reality MMORPG The Realm. From what he’d seen in videos and heard from reviewers, the game sucked. With the company’s failed attempt at entering the gaming industry, they switched their sights to focus on smaller scale educational programs.

Being a beta tester for Radical Interactive was not the dream job that Will had envisioned, but he had hoped it would get his foot in the door to one day becoming a graphic designer for the company. As he filled out his new hire paperwork, he never realized that he was literally signing his life away.

Now a phenomenally successful company, Radical Interactive was secretly working on something behind closed doors that would change both the medical and gaming industries forever. The Realm was reborn. The only problem was that it wasn’t a game—at least not to those trapped inside.

Dumped into a fantasy world filled with nightmarish monsters, awe-inspiring magic, and way more walking than Will thought he was physically capable of as a nerdy desk jockey, he has to navigate the perils of The Realm and unravel the mystery of how he came to be here and how to get out. Fantasy meets real-life consequences in a game that could mean the difference between life and death. But first, Will must get over being a noob…


Mad Hatter Vampire Prince by Kia Carrington-Russell Dec 31st

A PREQUEL NOVELLA TO THE TOKEN HUNTRESS SERIES. CAN ALSO BE READ AS A STANDALONE.

Kyran Klaus is the prince of Grand Klaus, his reputation honoring him the title of the Mad Hatter Vampire Prince. Crazy, deadly, lustful, and utterly bored with life.

Sasha Pierce is one of a kind. Having been experimented on by her mother as a child, she’s become a human weapon who’s looking for answers beyond the walls where her kind aren’t enslaved to vampires.

When the Mad Hatter Prince takes a sudden interest in Sasha and her work, she scarcely begins to cover her tracks and hide her secrets. What she doesn’t anticipate is being a pawn in his most sinister performance yet.

Disturbingly Wicked! This novella is not for the fainthearted. Lust, Gore, Wit, and Malicious Humor. Prepare to be deliciously tainted.
