When my father schemed to marry my sister off to a decrepit old man to boost his standing, I swore I'd protect her. Together, we drove suitors away, but his fury only grew. To punish us, he rigged the barbarian lottery—and when Evelyn's name was drawn, her fate was sealed. Unless I stopped it. There was only one way to spare her. I would take her place. I'd do anything for my family. Even if it meant becoming a barbarian's tribute.

I'm nobody special. Just a healer in a small village. The only girl in a house full of rowdy boys. But then I stumble across an injured dragon, save his life, and everything changes. My dragon decides that we'll go to the Dragon Rider Academy and become great warriors together. There's just one problem. All dragon riders are male, and all dragons are female. Considering I break their most basic rules just by existing, no one is exactly rolling out the welcome mat for me. Especially not the three darkly handsome princes who run the academy.

Getting a boner for the monster who saved us shouldn't make sense in any universe. But here we are. When a piece of Earth gets ripped into a monstrous new world, I barely have time to panic before I'm fighting for my life—and for Jamie's. Terrafeara isn't just dangerous; it's a nightmare brought to life, where humans like us are hunted, enslaved, or worse.

Deacon In hindsight, demanding a human woman swear herself to me in exchange for the life of her father wasn't my best idea. But I saw her and I wanted her, and I need a mate. After shouldering the responsibility of all shifter-kind for so long, I acted selfishly. I know what breaking her word...

No family, no home. No one would care if I disappeared. I wouldn't survive another year on my own. In a desperate attempt to survive, I volunteered as tribute to the barbarians after hearing they now accepted males. At least if I died, I would have done something good by sparing someone else. But it wasn't at all what I was expecting.

Fable Winthrop was my only partner on the ice. I'd been the hockey player turned figure skater, and she was the prim, proper ice princess who didn't take my crap. I did everything to make her smile, I worked hard to get her the gold, and I loved every moment of it. Even though her parents warned me to stay away from her, I fell desperately in love with her. Since I couldn't have her the way I wanted, I made her my best friend, the girl who knew me better than anyone, in the hope that, after it was all over, we could choose each other. But after winning the gold, her parents pulled us apart.

There cannot be only one job in Hideaway Springs. Not that I won't take literally anything at this point, but the likelihood of Levi Reeves hiring me is negative zero. And if he does, I'd be sleeping with the horses, not in his house! Or he'd call the police and 'finally arrest' the town Rogue for all her misdemeanours. But that doesn't stop me from knocking on his door. Besides, his grumpy scowls are easy to tune out when my eyes keep drifting to the rugged edges of his face and sculpted physique.

I, Maury Powell, am hunting a dark witch who is threatening my newfound family. She strikes from the shadows, casting spells to attack and harass the cat shifter pride. Then, she murders my stepmother, leaving her brutalized body in the bayou. It is up to me and my fated mate, Alpha Anthony Holder, to track down the witch and protect the pride...and our unborn baby. But the witch seems to be one step ahead, having secured a deadly weapon that could destroy the pride from the inside out.

I'd pretty much given up on family. Raised in the foster system, I've always been on my own and thought it would be that way forever. But now I have a new cat shifter pride, I've been reunited with the father who never knew I existed, and I have a new love—my Alpha, Anthony Holder.

He should've known he wouldn't win going up against the best. Everyone knew I was the most popular in the brothel. There was no point pretending otherwise. In a shameless act of revenge, he had the guards called and had me arrested for offending the man who'd chosen me over him. They, in turn, sold me off to the barbarians.

After years of successfully hiding, the monster who tortured me for years has me in his grasp again. This time, Matello is even more determined to bend me to his will, to make me obey, to break me. What he doesn't realize is just how close I am to shattering. Not from the physical torment, but from not knowing what became of the three men who would tear down the world for me.

I should've known better than to trust my childhood bully. I was too soft-hearted for my own good. Thanks to another one of his cruel tricks, I end up on the run through a monster-filled forest to avoid the noose. When I'm found by the local barbarian clan, I figure I'm done for. I'm injured, exhausted, and have no hope of fighting back. But the barbarian who rescues me from certain death isn't what I thought he would be. And maybe the fear I had for them was misplaced. Maybe the only thing I should be afraid of is falling for someone I can't keep.

I hate being a shifter. I was bitten by a rogue in the Louisiana bayou, and I'm desperate to find a way to break the curse of the cat that shivers under my skin...and to steal a talisman that's rumored to do exactly that. Problem is, it's secreted away in the penthouse apartment of Alpha Anthony Holder, and he doesn't take it well when he catches me breaking in.

Kendall Carver knows one thing for sure—security doesn't last. Injured and on the run, a sinfully handsome stranger saves her life. Cajun werewolf Burke Devereux learned his lesson 200 years ago. No humans, ever. No looking, no touching, no kissing, and certainly no making love. Eager to escape his Pack's matchmaking attempts he heads for his cabin in the White Mountains. But nothing could have prepared him for the raging blizzard or the beautiful woman begging for his help.

This is it! The answer to your Stormy Weather questions. This isn't a traditional romance. Think of it as a series epilogue, a glimpse of happily ever after, or how the Cajun werewolves spend their first Christmas as a pack. A Cajun Werewolf Christmas (the happily ever after) paranormal romance...

My mom and I have a secret. For the last two years, we've been on the run from someone far worse than Ares, Hades, and Vulcan. We're tired of running.

When we arrive, three dangerous men take an unlikely interest in me, despite my efforts to keep them at a distance. Vulcan: The sweet, flirty tech wizard Hades: The assassin with eyes so blue it hurts Ares: The heir to it all with an attitude to match

Every year, a woman from each town is chosen as a tribute to the barbarian clans to keep the peace, never to be seen or heard from again. The rumors about the barbarian clans were horrific. It was a sentence worse than death. I never thought they'd choose me. But when my brother betrays me by telling my father about my interest in men, he decides to throw me to the wolves to spare our family the shame—making me the first male tribute.
