About The Billionaire’s Unexpected Wife
As soon as I saw her, I knew I had to have her.
I thought this Vegas fundraiser was going to be boring—another obligation to keep the family business alive.
Wrong.
I don’t remember a thing about the night we spent together, other than how good she felt against me, like she was made for me.
We woke up the next morning with more than we bargained for—wedding rings.
Too bad I don’t believe in true love.
I’d feel bad about it, but she’s got a strong opinion of me too.
I’m a perpetual bachelor from her perspective.
Great.
Crazy enough, this could work out for both of us.
I need someone to keep my traditional Greek family from nagging me about settling down, and she could use some cash for reasons she doesn’t want to share.
I know a good deal when I see one.
And if she wants to end up in my bed all over again, all the better…

About The Hummingbird’s Sayang by Faith Twardzik
FROM THE AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR comes a luxurious descriptive, decadently dark, and lusciously erotic novel about obsession, sensual freedom, sexuality, and the incredibly beautiful, often misunderstood relationship between a Dom and a Sub – entirely inspired by a true story.
He’s the Arab heir to a multi-million-dollar global corporation. She’s a hopelessly shy, iron-willed strawberry-blonde computer science nerd who grew up in the cornfields of the Midwest. If you looked up the definition of night and day in a dictionary, you might just see a photograph of them.
As fate would have it, they land in the same programming class. And then he ghosts her – for a year and a half. So, what could she do, but fall in love with a 27-year-old Vietnamese car salesman instead? That is … until he promises her a white picket fence and forgets to mention the Peet’s barista fondling his coffee beans on the weekend.
Cue the soul-crushing agony of first love. And who should swoop into her match pile of potential rebounds, but her black-eyed Arab Dom from Dubai?
The euphoria of his touch sets her free, but his aloofness towards the women of his ‘harem’ flings her on a downward spiral toward obsession. She chases the love he refuses to give, falling instead into the arms of three other men and one woman – Minjoon, the Korean cuddle bug, Jin, the war-torn Balenciaga poster boy, Ling, her Japanese math genius of a TA, and Anna, the striking Colombian voice actress.
But … how far will the lines of identity and mis-identity blur in the face of an all-consuming obsession for one unreachable man? And how far will obsession lead the men who fall for her?
“The Hummingbird’s Sayang” is an evocative examination of the non-idealized realities of BDSM, our endless obsession with temptations of the flesh, and the line between personal development and destruction of self-identity.
Praise for “The Hummingbird’s Sayang”:
“The Hummingbird’s Sayang is an incredibly written and superbly descriptive story. The world building and character development in this book are stunning and the story is incredibly enlightening. It is truly astonishing that this is the author’s debut novel.” -Jennifer Wright Bishop, Book Reviewer
“The prose was gorgeous. Just the perfect combination of beautiful words strung together to make gorgeous sentences that really connect you to the story … The author did an amazing job conveying the beauty of the blossoming relationship between Sara and Fuad … All romance and smut-lovers should not sleep on this one!”
– Jess Ross, Book Blogger
“There is kinky sex and love and heartache, but this book is not your everyday romance. It is instead a beautifully written, deeply moving and painful story about a young woman’s psyche. I’m giving this book 5 ⭐️ because I couldn’t put it down and I’m dying to know what the future holds for Sara.” – Pricilla Reeds, Book Reviewer

About The Purveli
New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author Dianne Duvall brings readers the next stand-alone novel in an exciting new sci-fi romance series full of action and adventure.
Ava has always been different. Born with strong telepathic abilities, she lives a very isolated life until she is offered a job with an obscure network that aids powerful Immortal Guardians in their quest to protect humanity from the psychotic vampires who prey upon them. Suddenly, she doesn’t feel so different. For the first time in her life, Ava has found a place where she belongs. She’s happy. Life is good. And when her employers invite her to join a group of other gifted ones and a handful of Immortal Guardians on a journey to another planet, it becomes absolutely fantastic.
In no time at all, she is speeding across the galaxy aboard a Lasaran warship crewed by two amazing alien races. It’s the dream of a lifetime… until a vicious attack by a mutual enemy of Lasara and Earth lands her alone in an escape pod with no habitable planet in sight and only one ship within range: one that carries the enemy who wants to know why the bioengineered virus they released on Earth long ago didn’t exterminate humanity and leave the planet ripe for their claiming.
Jak’ri doesn’t know how long he has been a prisoner aboard the Cebaun, but he fears the enemy’s twisted experiments will soon lead them to a virus that will eradicate the Purveli people. Despair grips him until a female from Earth is taken captive and reaches out to him telepathically. The gift that Ava said caused her such misery in the past soon becomes his salvation as the two of them form a fast friendship. Determined to distract each other from the horrors of their existence, they immerse themselves in telepathic communion during the day, then seek solace and adventure together in shared dreams. As their friendship deepens into love, the two hatch a daring plot to escape their captors. But the enemy will not let them go without a fight.
Can Ava and Jak’ri stand against so many and emerge victorious?

About Tell Me You’re Mine: The British Billionaires
A chance encounter between a secretive billionaire and a plus-size PR expert could be the perfect solution to both their problems – or a delicious scandal in the making – in New York Times best-selling author J. S. Scott’s new British Billionaires series….
I am the type of woman who always plays it safe. In my professional life as a public relations “fixer”, and in my personal life, especially when it comes to the opposite sex. Really, who needs the wild highs and the I-want-to-die-because-he-left-me lows of a relationship? At least, that’s what I thought…until I met him.
Damian No-Last-Name-Given is sexy as sin, and I’d developed some kind of weird, instant attraction to him the moment he settled his chiseled body next to mine on a flight from London to Los Angeles. His sexy British accent did crazy things to my previously dormant female hormones, which had eventually led me to do the most impulsive thing I’d ever done in my entire life. I kissed him while everyone else in business class was sleeping. Or had he kissed me? All I knew was that we were both very willing participants, and that panty-melting embrace had rocked my entire world while it was happening.
Unfortunately, that moment of spontaneity would haunt me once I found out Mr. British Hottie’s true identity. He’d held his last name back for a reason. Oh no, I couldn’t make some once-in-a-lifetime misstep with an ordinary businessman. When I screwed up, it had to be one for the record books, and it had to happen with one of the most powerful men in the world. And, oh yeah, he also absolutely had to be the biggest man-whore on the planet.
Once I knew the truth, I could have easily convinced myself that the kiss wasn’t all that earthshattering – if Damian Lancaster hadn’t boldly swaggered into my office the very next day to apologize, and to make me a business offer I couldn’t possibly refuse….
Goodbye sanity; hello madness.

About Love In Motion
Dalton
The thing about love…
It’s kind & beautiful, soft & hard, forgiving & emotional, but love can also be blind. Love can twist and turn you into someone unrecognizable.
That’s the way it was for Josie and me. She became my everything. I fell heart over mind, allowing her to take the only thing that I could call my own. The life I envisioned for us was blurred by secrets, hard to overcome. She made me question whether what we had was based on truth or a lie.
Joselyn
Dalton was an obstacle in the way of what I’d always shied away from, and the only way to reach my end was through him. So, I made a choice to get close to him, even when I shouldn’t have. We were never meant to be what we became. I didn’t intend for something forced to turn into something real. In the end, Dalton was so much more than just a means to an end. He held the key to everything, including my heart. It was his to have, to hold, to break, and to mend.
That’s the thing about love…
It can’t be forced. It just happens, and once it’s in motion, it’s impossible to stop.

About The Lion and the Shepherd: Keturah’s Children: Book 1 by Michael Horton
It is 4000 years ago, and a humble shepherd, Abram, is about to alter to course of all humanity. He will become the fork in the branching out tree that will give rise to Judaism, Islam, and, Christianity. But Abram’s main interests are so much more mundane than this. These are his obsession with young Sarai, the caring for his sheep, and, when he, his brother Haran, and his young nephew Lot are suddenly conscripted into the king’s army and whisked into a grisly war against the Elamites, it is just to keep everyone alive.
Working against Abram are the king’s knowledge of the prophesies arising from the bitter and haughty old priestess Mekhashef. Lowly Abram just wants to tend his sheep- nothing more. Though, the political hunt for his head and the heart-numbing goriness of battle will force Abram to become both the unwilling leader of men and, ultimately, what the prophesies had predicted- the resolute, steely-eyed “crusher of gods.”

About Maid For The Mafia by Alice T. Boone
𝐈 𝐂𝐀𝐍’𝐓 𝐋𝐎𝐕𝐄 𝐘𝐎𝐔— 𝐍𝐎𝐓 𝐈𝐅 𝐈𝐓 𝐂𝐎𝐒𝐓𝐒 𝐌𝐘 𝐅𝐀𝐌𝐈𝐋𝐘’𝐒 𝐒𝐀𝐅𝐄𝐓𝐘
𝑻𝒆𝒓𝒓𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆
Men like me, we don’t marry the maid.
I’ve spent my life building an image of brutality. My word is law in this city, and perfection is the only thing I’ll accept— from my men, from my family, from you. When Jackie sold you to me, I thought I was buying a silent servant. Your job is simple, Selina:
Keep this place in order
And keep out of my life.
Why is that so hard for you to understand? It doesn’t matter how bad I want you, Selina. We can’t be together. Involving you in this mess would mean sacrificing control, and I can’t afford that. If the world finds out that I can’t stop thinking about you, that I can’t stop needing you, I’ll lose everything.
Keeping you here is tearing me apart,
But I’ll never let you go.
𝑺𝒆𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒂
How am I supposed to tell you the truth?
Toronto left me burned. I’ve been used and abused by an entire city, and this was supposed to be a fresh start. I had hope for a new life, but loving you means throwing all that away.
I want the real you— not the image you’ve worked so hard to build. You say you want me, but if pictures from the past are enough to break your trust, how can I believe that? If you want a life with me, you’ll have to learn to let go of your pride, to stand as the man you are instead of the one the world wants you to be.
Because I won’t be treated like that again, Terry.
Not by you.
