Devoted, by Lark Taylor

Fate always has a plan.

Even if you don’t agree with it.

Ezekiel

Starting that online game was my attempt to find happiness. Something to fill my life other than the demands of Heaven and the rest of my unit.

I didn’t expect to find Sam.

Even with screens between us, Sam makes me feel more alive than I have in millennia. I find myself counting down the minutes until I can go online and be with him.

He’s my perfect match. In any other circumstances, I’d be doing whatever it took to make him mine.

But I’m not human. And, unlike humans, I have no say over who I spend eternity with. Fate decides who my mate will be, whether it’s the person I love or not.

Sam lives in the same city as me. If he were my mate, I’d have met him by now. I’d feel a pull towards him that I couldn’t ignore.

The right thing to do would be to end this. To put up walls between us to keep both our hearts safe. Instead, I find myself tearing down the barriers, falling faster for him every day.

I know how this story will end, but I can’t stop myself. I don’t care what plans fate has for me.

I want to make Sam mine.Devoted is a gripping, hurt/comfort, angel x human, MM PNR romance. The second in the Hopeless Blessed series, each book follows a different couple with a guaranteed HEA.

Winter Under the Covers, by Elle Waters

What better way to spend a cold winter than under the covers with a hot florist?

In the run-up to my sister’s Valentine’s Day wedding, I’m back at home for the first time since earning my veterinary degree. Working at my mom’s vet practice feels right, but my homecoming isn’t perfect. I’m not out to my family—since I’ve never been in a serious relationship, I’ve never told them I’m gay.

But my hometown seems to have changed since I was an in-the-closet teen. New shops have sprung up on Main Street, the arts scene is thriving, and the dusty flower shop next door to the vet’s office has transformed into a lush oasis, thanks to the new manager, Shay Brierley.

Shay’s only been in Rosedale for 18 months, but he’s the embodiment of the town’s transformation—young, vibrant, and unapologetically out and proud. He’s also flirty as hell and a total plant nerd. He makes a denim work apron look good.

The last thing I expected to find at home was a hook-up, but my connection with Shay goes deeper than sex. Torn between my feelings for Shay and the fear of sharing my true self with my family, I’m wondering if I’ll end up alone by winter’s end.

Winter Under the Covers is a stand-alone, secret relationship gay romance with plenty of winter heat and small-town charm.

Savage, by Brooke Blaine and Ella Frank

Who are we? Nobody really knows. We’re seven powerful heirs to empires, ruling Manhattan from our thrones on Park Avenue. By day, we’re the elite, untouchable, and more connected than you could ever imagine. By night, we revel in the darkness of our secrets, pulling strings that make the city bow to our whims.

Ruthless.

Dangerous.

We’re the Park Avenue Kings.

In this city of power and desire, where the line between love and obsession blurs, nothing is off-limits—and we wouldn’t have it any other way.

***

He’s the shadow they send to make problems disappear.

Lachlan Stone thrives in the shadows, ruling his world of secrets and power with savage precision. As the most lethal of the Park Avenue Kings, he can’t afford the luxury of attachments. But when a mission takes an unexpected turn, he finds himself saving Cooper Patterson—a determined journalist who stumbles into a dangerous world far bigger than he ever imagined.

Cooper is everything Lachlan should avoid: relentless, curious, and far too tempting for his own good. Worse, his profession threatens to unravel everything Lachlan and his fellow Kings have built. Yet the pull between them is impossible to ignore, even as it sparks a firestorm of desire and danger.

With enemies closing in and the line between truth and lies growing thinner by the second, Lachlan must choose: protect his secrets, or risk it all for the man who sees the humanity in his darkness.
