The Lustful Blade of the Celestial Frontier **A FILTHY LITTLE SCI-FI FAIRYTALE FOR GROWN-UPS.** Think old-school bodice ripper meets galactic treasure hunt. With pirates, filthy fairytales, and absolutely no respect for the laws of physics. Vera Nyx is a treasure hunter, former pirate captain, and a woman with expensive tastes, sticky fingers, and an unreasonable affection for stickers. Glitter is practically a religion. She also has a habit of acquiring things that technically belong to other people. Like her ex's spaceship. He'll get over it she says. Ryker Starshadow is a swordsman with a cybernetic eye, a very large weapon, and nine years of unfinished business with the woman who broke his heart. He's deadly with a blade, knits in his spare time, and has a fondness for trashy romance novels. Vera introduced him to those books years ago, and he found them a fascinating way to explore the feminine mystique. He's been studying the subject ever since, although he occasionally questions the anatomical possibilities described in certain chapters. Unfortunately, they're both after the same legendary treasure. And they're not the only ones. **Enter Captain Clarence.** A dangerously seductive Void Siren, collector of rare treasures, lover of beautiful things, and another of Vera's exes. He's charming, extravagant, shamelessly flirtatious, and entirely too pleased to find himself competing with Ryker. **Then there are the Seven Widows.** Seven of the most feared and dangerous women in the galaxy. They didn't earn their reputation by being reasonable, and anyone foolish enough to underestimate them is unlikely to survive the experience. **And Barnaby Quill.** A brilliant treasure hunter who's been dead for years but still insists on commanding his ship, *The Last Testament*. Death is a minor inconvenience when there's treasure involved, and Barnaby has absolutely no intention of letting it interfere with his ambitions. Between murderous fairytales, ancient magic, lost civilizations, pirates, and a galaxy full of creatures who would happily eat them, Vera and Ryker have quite enough to worry about. Unfortunately, there's also the small matter of nine years of unresolved heartbreak, unfinished arguments, and a physical attraction that refuses to behave itself. **Nine years apart. One more chance. And an entire galaxy about to regret their reunion.** *The Lustful Blade of the Celestial Frontier* is an explicit adult sci-fi romantasy filled with second-chance romance, dangerous adventures, outrageous humor, and enough romantic complications to make a marriage counselor request hazard pay. A love letter to the gloriously scandalous romance novels of the Fabio era, with a little Indiana Jones, a little Romancing the Stone, and a whole lot of trouble. **#FabioInSpace**

Elena is a vampire girl from the Academy of the Arts of the Dead, which she dreaded arriving at. She had a hunting moment. A moment of despair; she had to feed her bloodlust. So she hunted the animals that ran amok in New York City's forests. The scent of elk overpowered her instincts. Blood sounded like it was pulsing in her ears, and no matter how far the elk was, listening to the heart pulsing blood through its veins made her go blood-crazy. She charged into the motion to sink her teeth into the elk's neck. The blood was hot like fire, but tasted scrumptious. When she was done with her feast, she dashed to the academy and bumped into a wolf: gray and with emerald eyes. What surprised her was seeing a wolf all alone in the area of the vampires, not the fact that it watched her every move. She tried walking past it towards the castle on the Academy grounds, but the wolf howled. Fear rushed through her mind. A part of her wanted to run and hide--yet she couldn't move whatsoever. It blinked at her, observing every inch of her being.  "What the hell?" she said, not noticing the wolf before her was her truest enemy. Yes, vampires and shifters hated each other since the beginning of time, which was the time of the Egyptians. Poor her soul was about to scream for help, even though she had never been scared of anything, not even of an Omega like this wolf before her eyes.  When she ran into the academy through the bar doors, the howling grew louder. But it didn't stop her from rushing inside and going to her dorm. There was a party in the next-door neighbor's dorm. She knocked harshly at the door and yelled, "Enough partying; some of us have to sleep!"  A shirtless vampire, five more inches taller than her, came out. "I won't end the party, but you can come for a little bit, virgin." Oh, he crossed boundaries just now. She raised her hand fast, swung it across his annoying, crooked-smile face, and slapped hard. It didn't hurt her, but it hurt him. She was powerful against any vampire she could manage. As she rolled her eyes, she entered the vampire's, an immature teenage boy's, dorm. When you can't beat them? Join them until they tire out. He made a slow motion to his cheek, not even rosy red from the smack to the face. Vampires don't hurt as much as a wolf's bite does: the shifters. Maybe that's what I saw outside, she thought to herself as she bit her bottom lip nervously. Something she usually thought went away when she grew up her fangs. Her mother was the vampire, and her dad was an unknown species he'd not rather speak of.  Her uniform was dirty; she needed to wash it tonight before school the next morning. Ugh. She sighed, thinking of the jerk who invited her inside his own dorm. What was his plan? She thought, rolling her eyes again.  Can she survive another day with these annoying vampires partying every Sunday? And who was that shifter watching her? The more time that passed, the more she realized time flew.

But between demanding guests, expensive repairs, and a ghost in Room Thirteen who apparently refuses to respect checkout time, her dream is looking more like a nightmare. Enter Kit Wilder. Charming. Infuriating. Unfairly good-looking. And the owner of the ghost-tour company responsible for half her headaches. When a last-minute disaster leaves the town’s biggest Halloween masquerade without a venue, Eden sees an opportunity to save her struggling business. There’s just one catch: she’s stuck planning the entire event with Kit. Suddenly, her October calendar is packed with haunted history, late-night meetings, dangerously flirty banter, and a man who seems determined to make her forget every rule she’s ever made about mixing business with pleasure. Kit might believe in things that go bump in the night, but Eden knows better. The real danger isn’t the ghost haunting her inn. **It’s the man making her heart forget how to behave.** *An irresistibly cozy, deliciously spicy Halloween romantic comedy featuring enemies to lovers, forced proximity, a hero who falls first, and a happily-ever-after worth getting haunted for.*

Juniper Reyes has a type: emotionally complicated men, questionable romantic decisions, and people whose birth charts suggest they should come with a warning label. But even Juniper’s deeply opinionated polycule, The Sanctuary, has its limits. Enter Reggie Vale: devastatingly handsome tech billionaire, human tax bracket, and an Aries. Their meet-cute involves lavender matcha, a ruined designer coat, and enough astrological hostility to trigger a collective emergency meeting. The Sanctuary is unanimous: absolutely not. Unfortunately, Reggie is persistent, Juniper is intrigued, and the chemistry between them is considerably harder to explain away than Mercury retrograde. Soon, Juniper finds himself swept into a world of private jets, extravagant surprises, and a billionaire who might actually be capable of loving someone beyond his own reflection. But falling for Reggie means navigating the friction between Juniper’s chosen family and a man whose idea of solving a problem involves throwing money at it. As the relationship deepens, everyone must confront uncomfortable questions about intimacy, independence, commitment, and whether an Aries can ever truly be trusted. Featuring a gloriously chaotic polycule, an emotionally indispensable lemur, billionaire excess, and enough astrology to make an entire zodiac wheel reconsider its life choices, *My Polycule Hates My Billionaire Boyfriend Because He’s an Aries* is a wildly funny romantic comedy about unconventional relationships, chosen family, and discovering that sometimes love refuses to follow the rules—even the ones written in the stars. Because the universe works in mysterious ways. And apparently, sometimes those ways involve a private island.

In Gravepoint, blood determines everything—and Nyx Calder’s has always made her less. Half witch and half something no one can explain, twenty-three-year-old Nyx has spent her life surviving a supernatural society ruled by powerful pureblood Houses. To vampires, witches, lycans, and elementals, hybrids are mistakes to tolerate, control, or quietly erase. Nyx learned to keep her head down, hide what she could do, and let everyone believe she was weak. Then her power wakes up. Nyx isn’t just another hybrid. She is Nullborn—the descendant of a bloodline the Houses tried to erase because her kind can do the impossible: resist supernatural control, bypass ancient wards, and rewrite the very rules magic is built upon. Suddenly, the girl nobody considered a threat becomes the one person capable of dismantling the system that made them untouchable. As Nyx uncovers PROJECT: ECLIPSE VEIN, the Ashfall Initiative, and the horrifying truth behind the Houses’ experiments on hybrids like her, survival stops being enough. With rebel pureblood Mara Vale and the dangerously mysterious Orion at her side—and arrogant vampire heir Cassian Vale getting far too close for either of their comfort—Nyx turns her attention toward the people who spent generations deciding whose blood deserved power. But the Houses have one final weapon: the Eclipse Failsafe, a citywide contingency designed specifically to hunt and destroy Nullborn before they can threaten the supernatural order. There’s just one problem. The purebloods built their empire believing Nyx Calder would always play by their rules. They should have killed her before she learned she could rewrite them.

For generations, the Order of Saint Lamar has trained vampire hunters to eradicate the creatures that prey upon humanity. Deandra is their most promising hunter. She has never questioned the Order, until she captures a vampire who refuses to kill her. His name is Allister D'Marco, an ancient vampire rumored to have slaughtered entire villages centuries ago.

Every year, the Settlement chooses three people from the Foundry for the Ascent. For those born beneath the humming pipes, crowded corridors, and failing machinery of the lower district, being chosen means everything. The Ascended are promised a new life in the Reserve, where artificial sunlight warms immaculate gardens, food is plentiful, and the machinery keeping humanity alive is hidden behind polished walls. Eight years ago, Sera Dain’s older sister, Veda, was chosen. Before she disappeared into the Reserve, Veda screamed one warning at Sera: Don’t let them choose you. Now twenty-year-old Sera’s name has been called. Determined to discover what happened to her sister, Sera enters the Reserve and quickly realizes that the beautiful world above the Foundry is built on secrets. Medical examinations reveal information she was never meant to see. Ascendants are tracked by numbers no one will explain. A hidden designation keeps appearing in records connected to Veda: Ward Nine. And when another newly Ascended citizen vanishes shortly after arriving in the Reserve, Sera knows her sister’s disappearance was never an isolated event. Her only unexpected ally is Transition Officer Shaw, a young Reserve official raised to believe the Preservation Authority saved humanity and that the Ascent offers Foundry citizens a better future. At first, Shaw sees Sera as difficult, suspicious, and unwilling to trust a system designed to protect her. Sera sees him as another polished face of the Authority. The deeper they search, the harder it becomes for either of them to ignore what is happening, or the growing attraction between them. Behind the Settlement’s promise of order lies a brutal truth about the Ascended, the privileged families of the Reserve, and the world beyond the walls. And somewhere beneath it all, Sera’s sister may still be alive. **The Settlement** is a fast-paced dystopian fantasy romance novella for readers who love dangerous secrets, forbidden attraction, class divides, hidden facilities, and immersive speculative worlds, but don’t necessarily want to commit to a 900-page fantasy novel. Designed as a shorter fantasy reading experience, it delivers the mystery, worldbuilding, romance, and high stakes of a larger dystopian story in a compact novella.

Aurelia Greenlaw is a twenty-two year old Captain in the 13th Recon Division, and she is a Radio. In Palvera, the nation built on the ruins of North America, that word means something specific. Centuries ago an experiment on the human mind produced a mutation that never went away. Now there are six kinds: Builders, who rearrange matter with their hands. Washers, who put thoughts in your head and let you believe you thought them. Shifters, who change what you see. Sensatives, who read what you feel and can turn the dial on it.

***THE DEEPER THE SECRET, THE DARKER THE SHADOW***  **The Secrets and Shadows Series** is a gripping four-book thriller series where deadly hunters, clandestine societies, buried conspiracies, and enemies hiding in plain sight collide. Each mystery pulls the characters deeper into a web of secrets where nothing—and no one—is exactly what they seem. In **The Deadly Hunter**, the hunt begins when a deadly predator emerges from the shadows, leaving behind a trail of violence and unanswered questions. Someone is watching, manipulating the investigation, and protecting a secret powerful enough to destroy lives. **The Secret Society** takes the mystery deeper when evidence points toward an organization that has operated in the shadows for generations. Its members are powerful, connected, and willing to do whatever it takes to protect their secrets. The closer the truth comes to the surface, the more dangerous the investigation becomes—and escaping the society's reach may be impossible. In **The Buried Truth**, long-hidden evidence begins to surface, exposing connections no one expected. The past refuses to stay buried, and the truth reveals a conspiracy far more complicated than anyone imagined.

If killing a superhero were easy, everyone would do it. But for Julian Godfrey, defeating Storm Warning was far from the hardest part. What began as victory over the city's biggest hero quickly unravels into a mess, once he learns that the mysterious source of Storm Warning's power has found a new host. Charlotte Hathaway has no idea how to use her new abilities, but she won't stop trying until she destroys Julian's alter ego, Citadel. Julian should have taken her new powers from her when he had the chance, but he let her go in favor of a new plan: training her for a real fight. It's the only way to prove he didn't get lucky when he killed Storm Warning, and show the city--and the other villains--that he's a force to be reckoned with. Getting close to Charlotte comes with far more than Julian bargained for. She's the perfect hero. Determined, confident, and selfless above all else. She's even nice to him, of all people. But if Julian doesn't follow through with his plan despite his growing feelings for her, he has another force to reckon with: Blazar, the villain who raised him and taught him to use his powers. It seems that no matter what choice Julian makes, he's going to lose. And it's not just his life in danger. With its biggest hero gone, the fate of the city of New Atlas hangs in the balance.

Powerful men—ruthless, powerful, untouchable. Strong women—defiant, daring, unforgettable. In a world built on blood, power, and deception, they rule the underworld like kings— and the women who cross their paths soon learn that love is just another weapon. Each story bleeds with vengeance, seduction, and secrets too dangerous to keep. Alliances are forged in violence. Loyalties are tested in fire. And hearts are shattered in the name of power. They were never meant to fall in love. But when desire turns deadly, and betrayal cuts deeper than bullets, the line between devotion and destruction blurs until all that’s left is chaos. Vengeance. Betrayal. Obsession. Love twisted into war. Welcome to the Sinfully Corrupt Series. Where the wicked crave redemption, the broken crave control, and passion always demands a price.

**Power has a price. Love makes it deadly.** In the **Lawless Empire**, dangerous men rule through blood, fear, money, and consequence. They are killers, kingpins, heirs, enforcers, and monsters hiding behind expensive suits and untouchable names. Men who don’t forgive betrayal. Men who don’t surrender control. Then they meet the women they were never supposed to want. Women who challenge them, defy them, uncover their secrets—and become the one weakness their enemies are willing to exploit. With criminal empires at war, old debts resurfacing, betrayals closing in, and bodies piling up, love becomes more than dangerous. It becomes a liability. An obsession. A reason to kill. Each interconnected standalone delivers a new couple, a new threat, and a darker kind of devotion—where protection borders on possession, enemies become lovers, and choosing the wrong person could cost everything. **Because in this empire, love doesn’t save monsters.** **It gives them something worth destroying the world for.**
