Merciless, by Ella Frank and Brooke Blaine

He was sent to watch me. Now he can’t look away.

They sent the president’s son to babysit me.
How precious.

Shepherd “Shep” Winchester III thinks he’s here to keep me in line—keep me quiet, keep me still, keep me safe.

Good luck with that.

I’m Theodore “Theo” Rinaldi, the youngest Prince of Monaco, and the most merciless of the Park Avenue Kings. And I don’t do obedient. Not for my royal family. Not for the crown. And definitely not for the suit King sent to shadow me.

Shep is all discipline and duty.
I’m chaos in a custom suit.

We clash. We combust.
And then we cross a line we can’t uncross.

Now there’s a blackmailer on our trail, a target on my back, and the Kings think I’m the traitor. But if they want to come for me, they’ll have to get through him.

Because the soldier with the perfect posture and the unreadable eyes?
He’s not just protecting me anymore.

He’s falling for me.

And I’m going to ruin him for it.

In a town full of ghosts, it’s the living who haunt your heart.

Since moving to the quirky coastal town of Willowhope, Skylar Reign’s life has been nothing short of magical.

He’s building his dream interior design business from the bones up.
His ride-or-die bestie is a psychic medium who appreciates his flair for the dramatic.
His new mentor is a quirky clairvoyant who drops hints like bread crumbs.

And somehow—between coffee dates with ghosts and battle plans that double as family dinners—Skylar has found a home. A real one. The kind made up of oddballs, outcasts, and otherworldly beings who show up, meddle in your love life, and refuse to let you fall apart.

All that’s missing is Kingston Porter.

Grumpy and stubborn as hell, Kingston is Skylar’s guarded friend—and the one man he’s secretly in love with. But Kingston’s getting pulled deeper into dangerous dreamscapes tied to a mysterious mansion, and whatever’s lurking there isn’t just a nightmare. It’s real. And it’s hungry.

To survive what’s coming, Skylar and Kingston will need more than each other. They’ll need the whole weird and wonderful crew that’s claimed them as their own—psychics, spirits, found family and all.

Because in Willowhope? Love might save you—but found family fights beside you.

Grumpy/sunshine, slow-burn longing, dreamwalking danger, and a supernatural family you’ll wish you could join—this is book one in a paranormal M/M romance series with a HFN full of heart, humor, and haunting.

And then in one night, it was all ripped away by violent werewolves who changed Quinn and held him captive for a month. Now, a year later, Quinn is healing. He has safety in the Massachusetts home of the U.S. Anax, ruler of all werewolves in the country. And he has the love and support of the older man fate brought into his life, his mate Malachi. But as the anniversary of his change passes, Quinn has no respite from his memories. If only Malachi wasn’t so far away.

Now I’m fixated on all the filthy things Ezra, the Knights’ hot, older Head of Marketing, might do to me. Maybe I shouldn’t be flirting with him, but I’m too intrigued to stop. Ezra’s life is as messy as mine, however when he offers me a safe way to explore my feelings without judgement I can’t resist.

Neither of us is here for a relationship, and neither of us is ready for one… So why does Ezra make me feel things I’ve never experienced before?

Would it be wrong for me to fall for the man with the shattered heart?

Landry isn’t all he seems to be and soon enough, Jason’s once quiet life turns upside down. It’s going to take some Jurassic measures to make sense out of everything…but that’s okay, because together, they’ll have forever to figure it out.

Atlas & Miles, by Lincoln Mercer

Will a grumpy former jock come out for his gendersparkly sunshine Daddy before it’s too late?

Atlas
Being forced to move home at thirty-seven wasn’t my idea of a good time, especially with my high school reunion looming. But then I saw Miles again, and I knew I had to make him mine. Though with him still in the closet, would he even want a fabulous out-and-proud twink as his Daddy?

Miles
Twenty years since high school, and all I had to show for it was being the town’s go-to handyman and a list of casual hookups to keep my bed—and my a**—warm. Putting my needs on the back burner for so long had left me grumpy and alone, and something had been missing for a while. I needed a Daddy. But who would want a tall, jacked sub like me?

With my relationship with Atlas heating up, I knew I had to make a choice: hold on to my secret for the rest of my life or claim this sunshine human as mine. But would he leave before he gave me a chance?

Atlas & Miles is an 18+ grumpy/sunshine, opposites attract, size difference, Daddy (no age play) romance between a genderfluid hottie who loves makeup, dresses, and topping from the bottom (usually) and the muscled handyman who needs a love that chooses him for always.

From fake dating and long-held rivalries to first loves and second chances, anything can happen when the past and present collide. Don’t miss the reunion—RSVP today!

This Might Hurt, by Riley Nash

One second can change everything.

I met him on the worst day of my life—the desperate boy with a gun and the most brilliant smile I’d ever seen. We saved each other’s lives and then walked away, because a hitchhiking criminal and one of the richest men in the world can’t possibly be made for each other.

I’m a void, silenced by my power-hungry family and pushed into an arranged marriage like the obedient pawn I am. I’ve given up hoping for anything more.

He’s an uncontrolled explosion, a lost man with a shattered moral compass who would do anything for redemption. He refuses to give up hope, even if it breaks him.

So when I come up with a wild, impossible revenge plan, there’s only one person I look for. One person unhinged enough to say yes when I ask him to marry me and ruin my family’s business deal. He can teach a good boy how to do bad things. He already owns me, body and soul.

The problem is, we’re both too broken to know when to stop. Our hearts are angry and possessive and foolish. Now that we’re in too deep, I realize we only have one chance to build the kind of love that rewrites the damage they passed down to us.

A dark contemporary M/M romance featuring bratty soulmates, an unhinged grumpy/sunshine couple looking for revenge, found family, and breaking cycles of generational trauma.

King of Lies, by H.L Day

Two headstrong men. One broken world. And a connection that could destroy—or redeem—them both.

AUGUST
They say the world was better before the Red Rain―before the skies grew toxic and the virus transformed people into mindless savages.
I disagree.
There’s beauty in the wreckage, if you know where to look.
Desperation is profitable. Hope is a commodity. Dreams? I sell them daily.

Keaton Levine was supposed to be just another mark.
Until he wasn’t.
Because he sees me—really sees me.
And in this shattered place we call home, I’m not sure I’m ready to be someone worth saving.

KEATON
I lost everything when I got bitten.
Discharged, discarded, diseased. All I have left is vengeance.
Then came Tobias… August, whatever the hell his real name is.
He promised answers. He gave me lies.

But in peeling him open, I found something I didn’t expect.
A reason to fight. A reason to feel.
Maybe he is the answer.
And I asked the wrong question.

KING OF LIES is a full-length enemies-to-lovers M/M romance set in the 1nf3ction multi-author post-dystopian zombie apocalypse universe. Each book can be read as a standalone.

Expect: power struggles, a morally grey antihero, a mad scientist with a god complex, a cult holed up in a castle, (fireman’s) pole dancing, and two dominant forces crashing together in a world that wants them dead.
If they can learn to trust, they might discover something more precious than survival—each other.

A shameless flirt. A single dad. And an unexpected chance at love.

Harrison
When I left Plum Valley ten years ago, I never thought I’d return. But a call about animals in crisis brings me back to the town that inadvertently broke my heart.

What I don’t expect? Sam. The animal control officer looks every bit a cowboy wet dream, and for whatever reason, he’s latched on to me like a dog with a bone.

One impulsive night together only leaves me wanting more, but as a single parent with loads of baggage, dating isn’t easy. Could I try with Sam, the man with the quick smile and surprisingly filthy mouth?

Or am I only setting myself up for another round of heartache?

Sammy
I can’t say I’ve ever been called a wallflower. When I see something I want, I go after it. And what I want is Harrison.

But the veterinarian with the soulful blue eyes has his walls built up high. He doesn’t seem to understand that his messy life doesn’t scare me one bit. In fact, I’ve always wanted a family to call my own. A family like his.

Untouchable, by JT Fader

Some scars are too deep for the eye to see—but not for the heart to feel.

Until Denver walks into his life.

Denver has formed a rare connection with him—he can walk through Rory’s sleeping mind. The first time he slips into Rory’s nightmares by accident, he doesn’t expect to find such raw pain behind the fortress walls. But instead of turning away, he stays … and comforts Rory in the only place he allows anyone close.

Poignant, powerful, and deeply intimate, Untouchable is a shifter romance about trauma, healing, and the transformative power of connection—both in dreams and in the light of day.

Narrated by Greg Boudreaux

An alien invasion and a mysterious Sanctioning Ceremony—what could possibly go wrong?

RIVER
Now that I’m Earth-married to my sexy alien boo, everything should be sunshine and rainbows.

Instead, the Alliance is preparing for a hostile alien invasion any day now.

Am I stressed about that? Yes.

Am I more stressed about the Iyaran Sanctioning Ceremony that will make my marriage to Kai official on an intergalactic level?

You bet your sweet ass I am!

Kai and I just need to survive all of this so we can go on our super epic honeymoon. I’m not letting anyone or anything mess with that!

KAI
I dream of the day when River and I can finally settle into peaceful wedded bliss.

But nothing in our lives is ever quite that easy.

We need to stop this invasion and find the answers to critical questions. Like what exactly were those medical experiments that were secretly done to me…?

And River and I need to endure the three days of matrimonial hazing—ahem, I mean, traditional rituals of the Iyaran Sanctioning Ceremony.

I should be worried, but I know with River at my side we can face anything the universe throws at us.

All You Need is Alien Love is the fourth book in the Tentacular Tales series and should be listened to in chronological order.

Sometimes the magic you’ve been waiting for has been inside you all along.

Skylar Reign finally feels like his life is coming together. His business is thriving, his found family has his back, and Kingston Porter—his grumpy, impossible, perfect, almost all the time boyfriend—has become the heartbeat of his days.

But when their dreamwalking journey twists into something darker and malicious, Sky learns that magic isn’t just for everyone else. It’s waking in him too—and it’s nothing like he expected. Wild. Demanding. Alive.

Kingston’s not sure which is harder: watching Sky step into power he’s unsure of, or keeping his own feelings buried where they belong. But as new threats stir in Willowhope, both men will have to trust the bond between them… even if it changes everything.

Return to Willowhope, where the heart knows magic—and love is the spell that never fades.

In this M/M Paranormal Romance, the HFN continues in a story of growth, courage, and a love worth conjuring.

Wonder, by Bix Barrow

Does it still qualify as a mating of convenience when one partner is all in? Asking for a vampire friend…

Simon:
Look, I get it. It’s a shock when some random vampire shows up out of the blue and says you’re his mate. I don’t blame Reno for not welcoming me with open arms. He’s had a lot of responsibilities thrust on him in the last few years, and this mate thing is too much on top of all that.

But me? I have no doubt Reno’s the one I’ve been waiting for. I’ve been trying to find my mate for decades, enduring years of loneliness as I struggled to complete my mission. I’d love nothing more than to give Reno the time and space he needs to get to know me and embrace our mating.

There’s just this one teeny, tiny, deadly issue: Wonders are in danger, and as a Seer, Reno’s in a unique position to find the ones hunting them so I can take them out. Being mated will boost both of our abilities, so when Reno agrees to complete our bond, I’m relieved and ecstatic.

At least until he tells me it can only be temporary.

Reno:
FFS, fine. I’ll do the bonding thing, but only because Wonders are dying and Simon and I need the enhanced skills we’ll get. Yes, he’s easy on the eyes and a super nice guy. He’d make a great mate for anybody who’s in the market for one, but that’s not me.

Two years ago, I took on the District Monitor role short-term. But there’s still no replacement, and I’m constantly barraged by texts and calls from the Wonders. I had to quit the job I loved, and I barely have any time to myself. Now I’m supposed to be thrilled because some guy says we’re mates? No, thank you, I don’t need another obligation. We’ll sever the bond after the danger is over. Simon isn’t happy, but he promised.

Soon I’ll be a free man again, and Simon will find someone else he’s compatible with. We’ll both get what we want.

As long as we survive this fight.

Wonder is a medium-angst contemporary paranormal romance with psychics, magic, suspense, humor, found family, a dramatic rescue, and… is that Ms. Jackson? HEA guaranteed!

Bait and Switch, by Elle Keaton

Gabriel Karne is back.

The plan?
Lie low on Heartstone Island and wait for the dumpster fire that is his past life to burn itself out. So far, so good. Until it isn’t.

Gabriel has avoided Ranger Man for days, made a few important repairs to his sailboat, and put a dent in the stack of dime-store mysteries Elton loaned him. Life is at least okay.

Eight days in and his strategy crumbles like a wet cookie.

His ex-partner-in-crime returns, but this time he is very dead. And wearing a baby blue tracksuit, which somehow makes his murder even worse.

Is his body a message from the crime family they mutually pissed off? Did Peter have connections to Heartstone? And if he didn’t, how the hell did he know he’d find Gabe there?

With yet another exceedingly ill-timed murder, Gabe’s luck is once again not the Good Kind. Then there’s his simmering attraction to Casey, which he’s actively sweeping underneath his mental throw rug. Lundin is definitely not Gabe’s type. He’s a walking-talking moral compass that never seems to cease pointing out everything he’s sure is wrong about Gabe. But damn, that man’s uniform fits him like a custom glove.

Adding to it all, snow is in the forecast, there’s a missing brush worker up the valley, and Calvin Perkins is still on the loose. Gabe’s not even going to think about the spiders.

Everything will be fine. FINE.
