Ten years ago he was Prince Aiden, heir of Jereena, at the top of the world - now, they call him Beast. Aiden has landed on his feet: His exclusive club is the place to be, and he makes hundreds of thousands a night. What else could he possibly want? Belle grew up during the Anarchy, and the corrupted system screwed her big time, but she managed to get by. Then, her stupid brother goes and steals from the Beast, who demands her as payment. Well, her, a pile of cash, or her sister. Options two and three aren’t acceptable.

Vale was born in battle 700 years ago, and in all this time, he's never encountered an enemy that poses a real challenge. Until now. Devi has been told terrifying tales of vengeful gods since her youth. She never thought that she would wake up in a world where she had to fight them. They're opposites: He gets on her nerves; she is under his skin, and if they're to survive, they must join forces.

The world belongs to vampires now, and 21-year-old small town girl Fay Turner thought it meant that every human like her was destined to be a slave or a servant. Then, William, an ancient vampire, came and set her free.

Then, maybe she'll somehow manage to tell the man who saved her everything she needs to say.

Jasper has been struggling to harness the power of the six elements. It's not as easy as he had once thought, but Celestia on the other hand has connected with her inner self, unleashing a power she didn't know she had. With word that the Doctor might be on Darkfalls, the two set out to get revenge, but not before completing a vengeful task to make some money.

Once you learn how to fit 2-hour vacations and regular leisure time into your life, you will be better at switching into a "vacation mindset" and become more efficient at relaxing. A lot of us work too much without taking enough time to recover. This is unfortunate because taking time off improves our health, relationships, and our thinking. Additionally, studies indicate that when we do return to work, after leisure time, we are more efficient and productive than we were before.

Blanche Wood's life has always been crazy - voices in your head kinda crazy - but before him, she could deal with it. Her stepmother would have loved to carve her heart out and eat it the day her father died, but as Blanche is the last of the Woods living in the Woodlands, she had to put up with her. Alessandro Primerius, Prince of Alenia, the fay blooded man who could rule the entire world if he so wished, was everything the Queen's ever desired... and he wants Blanche. Despite the fact that Queen Ilda is the fairest of them all.

No woman should be forced to say, “I do.” My village is forcing me to marry Thomas. “Just follow the rules” they say. “You will love him eventually” they say. Screw what they say! I shouldn’t be told who to marry. I should be able to choose who I love. But, who am I kidding? This village would never allow a woman to make her own decisions. Especially me, I am forbidden to go against their wishes. I have to restore my family’s honor by marrying the handsome perfect green eyed candidate. So perfect he is hard to resist. But, can I live a life without love? A life obeying rules...

I hate small towns. The life there is not for me. But when my grandfather passes and his lawyer shows up at my door with his will and the grumpy rancher who gets on my nerves, the only choice is me staying longer than planned. The last thing I need is Hayes interfering with my inheritance. We never get along, and that’s not a problem. He hates me just as much as I hate him. And to top it, he’s my best friend’s brother. The only problem is that hint of passion that hovers between us. I see it in his eyes even when he’s angry…I see it in the way he looks at me. There’s a list of ...

I’m a workaholic and proud of it. I’ve accomplished everything on my 10-year plan, except getting married before turning 30. The problem is, I don’t believe in romance or true love anymore - but my biological clock is screaming at me. I probably shouldn’t have accepted an arranged marriage proposal, but I did, and I boarded a plane to Argentina to meet my future husband. Fate, however, had other plans.

Aurora Stephenson is the ultimate lady, the picture of grace and perfection. She’s distant, detached, and consequently, no one thinks she has a heart. They’re wrong. For years, she’s cared for, and cared about, one person beyond anyone else. Nevermind the fact that King Rupert isn’t exactly what one would call alive.

Kai, heir of the dilapidated clan who's established residence in the most dangerous mountain on Gaia to avoid persecution, has enough problem on his plate. For starters? Finding enough food. Lack of running water. Keeping the kids alive - and out of the slave trade. The torrential snow. But when he sees that innocent, defenseless girl who persists in staying in the cold wastelands all by herself, he can't close his eyes. She becomes his to care for.

After the night of her life with a dirty, sexy stranger who’s supposed to live a world and a half away from her, Tori is feeling pretty damn smug - until she finds him in the office next door. Bryant is a menace, making every woman in the entire building lose focus, but she never thought he would actually go after her assistant. Determined to save the poor girl from his clutches, she confronts him and finds herself thrust in a world she never knew existed.

When the Agency is brutally attacked, she and her cousins should have taken their chance to run, but to her surprise, there are people she isn't quite willing to turn her back on. It's obvious to Gray that Tria and her family are trouble, but they're the only ones able fight off those who destroyed the Agency. He needs to stay with them.

Three hundred years has passed since the Last War. That's how the Elites called the third worldwide conflict, swearing that their rule would ensure that humanity would stay at peace forever. They lied. After the war, two thirds of women were born barren, so the fertile ones have a duty to society they must fulfill by either giving birth to a child by their 25th year, or go through the Auctions. Xander spends most of his time in his lab, but once a year, he has no choice: every unattached, childless male in the City is bidden to attend the Auctions.

Lucy is a perfectly reasonable person, up until she isn’t. She bottles up incidents, willing to forgive and forget, but when someone crosses the line, she becomes what her friends have affectionately called The Psychobitch. There’s one person who has it coming; from their very first meeting, Trick Johnson, CFO of Harris Toys, has been a contemptuous ass to her, but she held her tongue… Until her boss asks her to work with him for a month. Trick has a huge problem. He has a life plan – a simple, straightforward plan – and the gorgeous ball-buster his best friend employs isn’t part of it in any way, shape or form. He’s managed to keep her out of sight and mostly out of mind quite successfully… Until Carter Harris makes them work together.

Lana, an enforcer sworn to obey the alpha, doesn't like it, but never has she considered saying or doing anything about it until now. Then things become complicated when the prince of Ennom comes through with a battalion of Jereenan soldiers....

Coveney has been wrongly accused of a crime he’d never commit, and it’s changed him, turning him into a cold, indifferent version of his former self. Then, she appears out of nowhere.

She has no place among her kind, and her best chance seems to be attempting to join the human world. One drunken decision to apply to the Wyvern Pride later, and she’s in Lakesides.
