But here comes her last chance, a chance to redeem herself and win the case that can restore both her and Michael Gresham’s careers.

Has being selfish ever cost you? Do you ever regret being foolishly in love? Why is it that when we know something isn’t good for us we indulge until it makes us sick? These are the questions Nivea, Coco, and Brandy ask. Nivea has two lovers and she loves them both the same. No matter how hard she tries to live up to her marriage vows to JayVon Deeds, her desire for another seems to make it impossible. Will Nivea’s betrayal destroy her perfect marriage? Some would say that Coco is the baby-momma from hell. She’s insecure and quick to fly off-the-handle, but blame it on the man who she’s given her all to—TrayVon Deeds. He’s disrespectful; he neglects her; and he loves her, but he’s not in love with her. He may not have come out and said it, but his actions prove it all. Will Coco get tired of his selfishness, lies, and disrespect, or will she ride until the wheels fall off? Brandy lives to be the best mother she can be to her son. Her desire is to give him what she had as a child—love—and what she didn’t have a—two-parent home.

It’s been one long day for Lisa and her headache is living proof of it. Most of it she blamed on the full moon outside. Things always got crazy this time of the month, but this month was exceptional.

She wakes up as usual screaming only to find out that her nightmare has just begun, because she’s not alone in her room.

One man has been gruesomely tortured to death in a ritualistic killing. An entire police precinct has been reconstructed down to the smallest detail in an abandoned warehouse and a mysterious stranger known only as Flint seems to be the cause of it all. It’s a case that is fast turning into one big headache for Lisa Tauranto a detective for the NYPD, but it gets much worse when her past, that she’s tried so hard to bury, rises up to engulf her in its golden grip once again. Lisa is ripped from the existence that she so pain stakingly built for herself into a mixed up world of intrigue, where nothing is as it seems.

Heir to the most notorious clan in the Highlands, Hugh MacIain hides his identity while imprisoned in the bowels of Fort William’s hell. Aye, this braw warrior has endured horrors that should have seen him dead, though now it appears it’s the bloody flux that will send him to Satan’s fire.

Optimistic, competent, and captivating, Charlotte Hill takes pity on a fevered prisoner sprawled atop a cot in the fort’s surgery. When finally the Highlander opens his eyes, he seizes her heart with a pained stare. Truly, this is no commoner—but in 1692, a warrior loyal to the Jacobite cause and the daughter of a government colonel may as well be worlds apart.

After his escape, Hugh snatches a chance to woo the lass, until disaster strikes. While war and lust for vengeance force Charlotte further from Hugh’s arms, the couple’s romance seems aimlessly adrift on the open sea. Before they sail too far apart, can the tender love of an English lady coax a determined Highlander from his path of revenge?

Blood, iron and chains… Death, desperation and grief… This is my new reality. This darkness that eats me up from the inside out. When I woke up in this strange place with the memory of glowing red eyes in the shadows, I just knew I was never going home again. I fought my way out of one prison only to be bound again, this time to three creatures who claim I belong to them. Who claim I have a job to do.

I’m just a broken woman who’s never felt a loving touch, and all I want is to claw my way out of this nightmare. But the world I once knew no longer exists and turning a blind eye would mean the end of so many lives. The choice I have to make isn’t simple, and it’s going to be bloody.

This is a reverse harem, why choose, PNR romance with heavy triggers, violence and sexual content not suitable for anyone under 18.

When Jack Hargreaves takes a job with Fingers Molloy, it doesn’t quite go to plan.

Fingers turns out to be a time-travelling burglar, with a host of ingenious devices supplied by the mysterious Mr Smith. And the things they’re stealing are, frankly, odd. But Jack is in no position to pick and choose — for Jack has a secret too…

Sherlock Holmes is convinced that Fingers Molloy works for his nemesis, Professor Moriarty. Yet Inspector Lestrade won’t take him seriously. How can the great detective prove he is right?

The further in Jack gets, the more serious — and mysterious — things seem. But breaking free and coming clean could land Jack in not just trouble, but danger…

Valor’s Measure tells the death-defying tale of this Medal of Honor hero and captures his spirit as no autobiography can.

Dora Chambers may be the newest Lady Manager at the 1893 Chicago World’s Fair, but it isn’t quite the plum position she expected.

Fueled by the Fair’s progressive spirit and heady enthusiasm, Dora rises above her disappointment and embraces a determination to fulfill her duty and aid her husband’s social ambition.

But as her eyes open to the world beyond her own and unlikely friendships are forged, Dora finds the courage to face long-buried secrets that change everything. Can the life she’s always longed for still be the one she desires? Or will this tantalizing new passion change her forever?

One thing any Librarian will tell you: the truth is much stranger than fiction…

Irene is a professional spy for the mysterious Library, a shadowy organization that collects important works of fiction from all of the different realities. Most recently, she and her enigmatic assistant Kai have been sent to an alternative London. Their mission: Retrieve a particularly dangerous book. The problem: By the time they arrive, it’s already been stolen.

London’s underground factions are prepared to fight to the death to find the tome before Irene and Kai do, a problem compounded by the fact that this world is chaos-infested—the laws of nature bent to allow supernatural creatures and unpredictable magic to run rampant. To make matters worse, Kai is hiding something—secrets that could be just as volatile as the chaos-filled world itself.

Now Irene is caught in a puzzling web of deadly danger, conflicting clues, and sinister secret societies. And failure is not an option—because it isn’t just Irene’s reputation at stake, it’s the nature of reality itself…
