Can an omega shifter and an alpha vampire from opposing clans find happiness?
Sven
I knew the moment I went away to college, I was letting my family down. They think omegas exist to find an alpha and have pups, but I’m holding out for my own destiny–and my destined mate.
I just never imagined he’d be the gorgeous second-in-command of the neighboring vampire coven. Or that one night of passion was going to change my life forever.

Claude
My second life began as violently as the first one ended, and it’s taken more than a century to find my lost humanity. Not that I expected it to take the shape of an omega wolf–and the son of my coven’s greatest adversary, no less.
I’ll do whatever it takes to protect Sven and our hybrid child from a world that says our love shouldn’t exist.

I was born in hell, raised in a nightmare. I was fifteen when I killed for the first time. As a child, my dreams were about climbing out of that hell, of being on top of the pile of bodies and not one of them. I live in the shadows, find solace in the darkness. Until her. A chance meeting, a fleeting moment… Her innocence beguiles me. I want her, but to have her would destroy the very part of her I crave. And even knowing that, I can’t stay away, until my past threatens to drag her into my nightmare. Letting her go is the hardest thing I’ve ever done, but a demon has no business falling in love with an angel.

LUCY I’ve always held my own. I’m determined. I’m happy. I’m strong. Not right now, though. Right now I’m weak. Pathetic. Because I screwed up, I screwed up in a way I can’t fix. I destroyed someone. I stomped on a heart. I broke the one rule all women should live by. There is no coming back from it. Yet, I can’t seem to find the strength to stop. Nicolai. That name. It ruins me. I tried to stay away. I fought so hard. I knew what he was. Who he was. I knew what he had done. But I can’t seem to stop. I try and forget how his hands felt against my skin. How his lips felt on mine. How his body moved. God, his body. I’m a terrible person. A terrible sister. But take me to hell, if you must, so long as he comes with me.
DAMON Get a girl, they say. Find a woman, Damon. Settle down. I have one thing to say to that. Women equal drama. You know it’s true. I don’t have time for drama. Why can’t I be different? Why do I have to follow the trend? My story doesn’t have to match theirs. Hell, when the time comes I’ll find the right one. Until then, I’ll stick to friends. Yep. I can do friends. Lucy. She’s my friend. My best friend, if I’m being honest. She’s strong. She’s determined. She kind of holds my pieces together. And I hers. In the most non-romantic way I can think of. She has plenty of her own drama, she keeps us both busy. She’s like a sister. No, scratch that. Lucy, she’s the kind of woman who could run a country. Hold a family together. That’s the kind of person she is. The lady of the house. Yep. That’s our Lucy. Knights Lady.
Devin warned me what would happen if we kept sneaking around together, but I was sure I could control it.
I was being selfish when it came to her. I wanted her and that was it. My mind was set and I was on the path to winning her heart, until everything blew up in our faces.
I caused pain to the one woman I promised to protect, and now I have to figure out how to make it all right.
There’s nothing worse than seeing the look of fear on her face as the seriousness of our reality falls down on her instead of me. One thing no one counted on, though, was just far I’d go to save her. I’d walk through fire to keep Devin from living out her worst nightmare.
Devin –

Except those fear become reality in the most terrifying way.

All I had to do was get back the suitcase full of cash. Falling in love with the girl who stole it was not part of the plan.
From New York Times bestselling author Cassia Leo comes a romance about taking chances, double lives, and falling madly in love with the one person who wants you dead.
A missing girl. A handsome neighbor. A mysterious suitcase. A very unexpected romance.
Down on her luck in Las Vegas, Isabel “Izzy” Lake turns to the regulated prostitution industry. But her first day on the job ends abruptly when her client dies, and his suitcase contains over a million dollars.
Izzy takes the money and sets off to a small town on the other side of the country, where she attempts to live a low-profile life. A few weeks into her new country girl lifestyle, she finds owning an old fixer-upper isn’t so fun when you’re a city girl with zero DIY skills.
Izzy’s handsome new neighbor, Kingston Jameson, is all too eager to fix her leaky faucet and warm the cold side of her bed. It’s not long before she finds herself falling for King. But is he really the sweet-talking country boy he claims to be, or has he come to collect more than her heart?
***
Kingston “King” Jameson knew he shouldn’t have let Garrett pick up the suitcase full of cash. And he sure as hell never expected Garrett to die at a brothel and get robbed by a prostitute.
King needs to get the suitcase – and the secret item hidden in the lining – before his boss kills him.
He has one problem: The girl who stole the suitcase has hidden it very well. She left her entire life behind in Las Vegas. She’s got nothing left to lose. If King wants that suitcase, he needs to get close to her. Close enough to watch her every move. To know her deepest secrets.
Okay, he has two problems: He’s also fallen in love with the girl he’s supposed to kill.
Dylan Locke knows that pining over the young ingenue Audrey Lind is pointless. He can’t offer her what she wants.
He definitely can’t give her what she needs.
Thank goodness she’s half a world away, and he doesn’t have to deal with his attraction head on.
But fate has other plans for him, and when Audrey once again lands in his path, it’s only too easy to fall back into their easy rhythm. And then their easy banter. And of course, each other’s arms.
He tells himself nothing has changed. She still wants forever, and he still thinks tomorrow is long enough.
But watching her search isn’t as easy as he thought it would be, and now Dylan must figure out if he’s really the love Scrooge he professes to be or if he’s been Fate’s willing victim all along.
You have the right to remain silent … or be as loud as you want, baby.
I’m not really a strip club kinda guy. I like my lady all to myself. But a lap dance from Sky at my captain’s party started it all. And now I can’t get her out of my head. Too beautiful, too frightened. I can show her that her body is worth more than making rent. Sh*t, she deserves better. Her boss won’t let her quit. He has her by the throat. She has to be free of him. She has to be mine.
So I do what cops are never supposed to do. I go rogue. Anything to save her. Anything to make her mine.
One female criminal genius. Three brilliant, passionate detectives who stand in her way. Let the seduction begin…
My family expected me to play sacrificial lamb for their supernatural cult. Through a desperate bargain with a demonic fiend, I escaped—into a criminal underworld that saw me as easy prey.
I’ve proven them wrong a thousand times over. These days, what I want, I get, by whatever means necessary.
Now my fiendish friend is coming to collect its fee: my soul. I don’t intend to pay. Unfortunately, the key to my freedom lies just beyond my reach. To steal it before my time runs out, I’ll need to con the finest investigative minds in London into executing a perilous heist.
Sherlock Holmes. John Watson. Garrett Lestrade. Each at the top of their game; each with a weakness I can exploit. Each so passionate both in the field and between the sheets. I answer to no one and I left my conscience behind years ago, but the more time I spend with them, the more the edges of my steeled heart soften.
We could rule the world if we worked together. But these men will never see the real me as anything but a villain. When the chips are down, I have to betray them—or I’ll lose myself to a greater horror than they could believe exists.
*What if the infamous Professor Moriarty was a woman—and she met Sherlock Holmes and his colleagues as young men? Wits clash and sparks fly in Moriarty’s Men, a modern paranormal spin on the classic characters. This reverse harem series comes with fast-burn steam, a slow-burn romance where the main character doesn’t have to choose, and M/M themes.*
