BREAK THE BONDS, FREE THE FAE Becoming a faery was enough to keep me alive… but that's the only good it did me. Now, I've got a trash-load of magic I don't know how to use, and my skin's coated in pixie dust that keeps acting out violently. On top of that, Ien is still hunting me and the other faeries. He wants to use us to break the bonds tying fae to their gone and forgotten mates, causing them constant pain. If we can beat him to the punch and figure out a way to do it ourselves, we just might survive this. It doesn't sound too difficult: Break the bonds, free the fae. But Ien's been three steps ahead of us this whole time… and we might just be playing right into his fingers. *This new-adult fantasy features sarcasm, mermaids, and slow-burn enemies-to-lovers romance.

BECOME A FAERY, STAY ALIVE When I accidentally gave Auden all of his magic back, I *may* have set myself up on a path leading toward disaster. After all, nonmagical things can't survive in Avalon. And a faery without magic is pretty much just a human girl with way too much hair, circling Avalon's drain. To stay alive, I'm going to have to change even more than I already have… assuming that's possible. And if it isn't, I'm going to have to high-tail it back to Earth. After rescuing Hannah and Elyn, of course. Because us ex-average-human chicks have to stay together, after all. It sounds easy: Become a faery, stay alive. But nothing in Avalon is as simple as it seems… including me.

MARRY THE KING, SAVE THE WORLD When the fae came, their magic brought destruction that only stopped when we offered them the one thing they wanted: Wives for their kings. I was selected "at random". Sacrificed to the fae. But the sexy, infuriating king I'm paired with doesn't want my body or soul; he wants my help. Thanks to some kind of prophecy, he and his people think I can get them back home. Getting them back home will require taking some of the king's magic, which is unstable on the best of days and catastrophic on the worst. When the power takes more effort to control than I would've ever guessed, and I'm forced to turn to my husband for help. But the fae never give anything away for free; especially knowledge. It was supposed to be simple: Marry the king, save the world. But now that we're married, and his power is becoming mine, our marriage might end up destroying the world… and I might be the one who destroys it.

All I did was try to save my best friend from making a huge mistake... And now I'm saddled with an obnoxious werewolf who thinks I'm his wolfy wife. Did I mention that he's trapped in his wolf form until he believes I'm ready to say "I do"? Not exactly my idea of a good time. The wolf follows me everywhere, no matter how many times I escape him. No amount of running has shaken him from my tail. At this point, I have no option but to ask him to bite me, so I can move on with my life. All I can do now is hope for the best... which for me, is a female wolf who doesn't tie me down to the jerk who won't quit following me.

A matchmaking witch, an ancient sea creature, and the sex contract they make. Welcome to the Love Bathhouse where desire and acceptance are in the water.

With no immediate career prospects on the horizon and a savings rapidly dwindling, it seems like that the perfect time to take the jump—straight into the arms of two giant Vori, elite palace guards who will bind her to them with more than an “I do.”When she gets a position as an instructor for the Matriarch’s offspring, it seems as if all of her dreams are finally about to come true. She has obtained a respected position and is discovering love with her mates, who are among the first among the elite guards to be granted access to the program. It is like a dream but one that becomes slowly tainted as she begins to notice that there is something awry at the palace. Is it just youthful hijinks or something more sinister? And when danger threatens can it be that someone desperately wants her out of the way?If so, they will have to through Rykaal and Sijhord first! Larger than most male Vori, they have been permitted to have what always seemed untenable—a mate of their own—and they will shake the foundations of the palace itself before they allow her to come to harm. Nothing less can be accepted when, in all ways, they are bound.

ARIA I am alone. Like I have always been. Other people look at me, see my face and think I have everything. But I have even less than the pauper in the street.

The answer stares at me, as clear as the moon above. No. A chance meeting leaves Aria in the hands of the mysterious monster that haunts her lands. Will life finally give them the peace they both crave, or will their pasts catch up with them and ruin everything?
