From USA Today bestselling author Rina Kent comes a new STANDALONE MM college romance. I’m not attracted to men. Or so I thought before I slammed into Nikolai Sokolov. A mafia heir, a notorious bastard, and a violent monster. An ill-fated meeting puts me in his path. And just like that, he has his sights set on me. A quiet artist, a golden boy, and his enemy’s twin brother. He doesn’t seem to care that the odds are stacked against us. In fact, he sets out to break my steel-like control and blur my limits. I thought my biggest worry was being noticed by Nikolai. I’m learning the hard way that being wanted by this beautiful nightmare is much worse. This book can be read on its own, but for a better understanding of the world, you might want to start with God of Malice.

The new vampires in town are sinking their teeth into solving a murder… Married odd couple Arthur and Sal are totally normal. They wear sunscreen, not because the sun can kill them, but because even the undead need a skincare regimen. They eat garlic whenever they want, though it gives Sal indigestion. They can talk to creatures of the night, but only the raccoons that rifle through their garbage. Really, they don’t bite… except into delicious baked goods. Ready to settle down and stay out of trouble, the two have opened a bed & breakfast in the idyllic, if not-so-paranormal-friendly, town of Trident Falls, Oregon. But trouble finds them when the mayor is discovered dead in their begonias with two puncture wounds in his neck. With the help of a werewolf barista, the elven town coroner, and a very human city manager, Arthur and Sal will need to prove they aren’t literally out for blood by catching a killer…

New York Admirals goalie Eric never thought his friends-with-benefits arrangement with much-younger Kyle would leave them both wanting more… Veteran goaltender Eric Bennett has faced down some of the toughest shooters on the ice, but nothing prepared him for his latest challenge—life after hockey.

Despite their intense physical attraction, Kyle has no intention of getting emotionally involved. He’ll teach Eric a few tricks, have some mutually consensual fun, then walk away. Eric is more than happy to learn anything Kyle brings to the table. And Kyle never expected their friends-with-benefits arrangement to leave him wanting more. Happily-ever-after might be staring them in the face, but it won’t happen if they’re too stubborn to come clean about their feelings. Everything they both want is within reach… They just have to be brave enough to grab it.

Hope is a dangerous thing for gods. Even former ones. From the highly beloved author of “contemporary romance magic” (Christina Lauren) Winging It with You comes a Hades-inspired gay rom-com, in which the former god of the Underworld turned grumpy funeral director must find a loophole in the Immortality Retirement Act that banished him to Earth, until the florist next door who sees life in full bloom begins to unravel all his carefully laid plans. Hayden Harlow, once the mighty Hades, has spent centuries quietly resenting his fall from immortality. Stripped of his godhood by the allegedly irreversible Immortal Retirement Act, he now runs Harlow and Sons Funeral Home—a front for his eternal sentencing among mortals, and a bleak reminder of the purpose he’s lost. Still, he’s determined to claw his way back…if only the Fates at City Hall would stop toying with him. Enter Levi Wilder: a florist with an artist’s heart, an infectious smile, and a gift for finding beauty in life’s messiest moments. When Hayden storms into Levi’s shop to complain about a bouquet of sunflowers—an offensive choice for a funeral, in his opinion—their worlds collide. Hayden is all restraint and shadows; Levi is all sunshine and charm. But beneath the clash lies an undeniable spark neither can ignore. As their connection blossoms, Hayden finds himself caught between the life he once knew and the bright future Levi dares him to imagine. But trusting Levi means risking the walls he’s kept in place all these years—and it’s not just his heart on the line. Because in the threads of fate, one choice can change everything.

I ain’t no buckle bunny. Sugar, I’m the one looking for a buckle bronco. Welcome to Darling, where the cowboys are hotter than blazes and one-night stands have a way of catchin’ up to ya. I’m JJ Wilde, Queen of the Rodeo. I had it all, until I didn’t. You see, sometimes life doesn’t go as planned. One night, in a drunken rush into heat, I see him—tall, dark, and Alpha. Wouldn’t ya know, I slip and fall right onto his gosh darn knot. Now, four years later, I’m a single mom, being courted by a wealthy older pack, puttin’ in the work to make it back to the top, and somehow still pinin’ for the one that got away. Enter Kash Ford, my ex-best friend who’s hotter than sin and grumpier than a barn cat. His return to Darling sparks new life into the feud our daddies started ages ago. Despite a marriage agreement scrawled on a cocktail napkin when we were knee high to grasshoppers, neither of us can stand to be around one another. But none of that matters when I’m introduced to his packmates—Wyatt, the Beta cowboy with charm as thick as molasses, and Beck, the Alpha whose eyes are a perfect match to my little girl’s. Now, I’m between a rock and a hard place. Do I listen to my heart and ride off with my cowboys into the sunset, or will shadows from the past taint our love until it dies a tragic death? For Content Warnings, please visit my website. Rodeo & Juliette is book one in the Darling Omegas Universe, a series of fast-burn Why Choose Romance standalones. This book includes FMMM. Each book will end in an HEA and lead into the next book with a new feisty omega and her own rough around the edges cowboys.

When life gives you lemons…freeze them. They hit harder and leave bruises. For one brief, beautiful moment, I had it all—my degree, a wealthy Alpha, and a bright future. The next, I was sabotaging our bonding ceremony to teach my cheating ex a lesson he wouldn’t soon forget. Throwing up the middle finger, I ran as far and fast as my pitiful broken heart could carry me. That was six years ago. Now, the charming small town of Darling is once again home, and the Slick & Saddle Saloon is going to be mine. Except rumors are spreading through the emergency phone tree faster than a flame down a tightrope doused in gasoline—all thanks to my friendship with Ridge, a homegrown Darling Beta. They say our friendship has to be more than we’re letting on—that a man and a woman can’t spend time together without spending time together. I refuse to step foot across that imaginary line, though. Ridge comes with a pack, and that pack has Alphas—a no-go zone for me—and a strong, silent Beta packmate that watches me with a little too much intensity. But time has a way of making you forget all the reasons you shouldn’t, especially when sexy grins and enticing scents lure you into a false sense of security. Because now they’re keeping something from me, and my instincts are rioting. Can I put away my runnin’ shoes for good, or will I need them to get me far away from the only place that’s ever truly felt like home?

A former sorority girl starts a prestigious poetry MFA program only to discover that one of her fellow grad students is her high school crush-turned-nemesis—​who can't stop writing about her. No one’s more surprised than Leigh when a prestigious MFA program in North Carolina accepts her. A former sorority girl, Leigh’s the first to admit she knows more about the lyrics of Taylor Swift than T.S. Eliot, and she’s never been able to shake the “all-style-no-substance” feedback her high school crush made in their poetry workshop. Bad enough that her tattooed, New Yorker tote bag-carrying classmates have read all the right authors and been published in the country's leading literary journals, Leigh's insecurities become all too real when Will, that same high school crush-turned-nemesis, shows up at orientation as a first-year in the program, too. And now, he’s William, exactly the kind of writer Leigh hates, complete with his pretentious sweater vests and tattered Moleskine. Leigh’s determined to prove herself—and William—wrong by landing the program’s highly-coveted fellowship. But Will’s dead-set on it, too, and in a small cohort, they can't keep apart for long. When Will submits an intimate poem (that's maybe, probably, definitely about Leigh) to workshop, they’re both forced to realize there’s more to the other than what’s on the page. And what’s between the lines may be even more interesting.

When a beast of myth and legend meets his match in the only woman who can soothe his battered soul, he'll do anything to keep her...Full synopsis coming soon!
