One of the many engineers that keeps Beta, the city under the sea, running, Mira only wants to make her family proud and to prove herself worthy. She knows the mysterious city better than anyone and it’s her dream to help it flourish.

But then, on a solo job in an abandoned section of the city, she encounters a monster of legend. An undine. A dangerous merman from an ancient civilization, long forgotten.

Arges has fought his entire life for his people. With deadly creatures under his control, he plans to eradicate Beta once and for all to protect his kind and their peaceful way of life. But when a human woman saves him, she unknowingly creates a bond between them, one he can’t ignore. Even though her flaming red hair haunts his dreams, he needs her for information on the undine’s enemies.

So he steals her. Keeps her. Feeds her. Only to realize their bond is far deeper than captor and captive. He cannot let her go—but he cannot keep her under the sea. In a battle to determine if love can survive a war beneath the waves, it will be their decision that changes the tides.

The Fallen; the Stolen; the Chosen

Chloe King is a normal girl. She goes to class (most of the time), fights with her mom, and crushes on a boy…or two. But around her sixteenth birthday, Chloe finds that perhaps she isn’t so normal after all. There’s the heightened night vision, the super fast reflexes – oh, and the claws. As she discovers who she is – and where she comes from – it is clear she is not alone. And someone is trying to get her. Chloe has nine lives. But will nine be enough?

Tears roll over my face. I touch them with my quivering tongue. They are clear and salty, not dark and bloody. Another sign that I am human.

What Alisa has desired for five thousand years has finally come true: She is once again human. But now she is defenseless, vulnerable, and, for the first time in centuries, emotional. As she attempts to reconcile her actions as a vampire with her new connection to humanity, she begins to understand the weight of life-and-death decisions. Can Alisa resolve her past and build a new identity, or is she doomed to repeat her fatal mistakes?

Her quest leads her to Ray. He is the only person who can help her; he also has every reason to fear her. Alisa must get closer to him to ensure her immortality. But as she begins to fall in love with Ray, suddenly there is more at stake than her own life....

Egypt

280f2320-8617-4f53-a3f7-1cb77c2f9718-0

Hate. Retribution. Revenge.
It burns in my veins and keeps me awake at night, hunting Crown City’s streets like the ones who took from me.
But it’s not these streets where I want to spill blood. It’s over there, across the bridge. Where the shadows of this world cloak their sick, foul secrets…and where they trade magic for mortal lives. 
I can’t get across there. Can’t walk in their world. If I could, I’d take this knife and shove it between his ribs. 
But I doubt I’d find a heart. 
None of them had hearts. Not their leader, Shrike, or Mojin, the one I see the most, or Honor and Ruin, the ones I don’t see. The ones no one sees. 
They’re the ones who corrupt. They’re the ones who kill. 
They’re the ones who took my brother from me…
Only I found a way to get to them now. This new seductive club the Wolves opened called Dark City needs mortal women to entrance these beasts and I’m the one they’ll want. 
The one who hides the truth behind her smile. 
And a knife against her thigh.
Only when I take my chance I’m the one taken instead. But my enemy doesn’t want me dead…they want something else. Something those dark Unseelie eyes promise…and I might never sleep again.

Note: Each Mafia Monster series can be read as a stand alone in the same world. There is cross over of your favorite characters to help you understand underlying motivations better, but it's not necessary to read from book one. 

Fae's Torment

A. Zavarelli

An Irish mobster. A missing friend. Two loyalties, ripping me apart. I had a plan. Get in, get my information, and get out. Easy, right? Turns out, infiltrating the Irish mafia isn't exactly what I thought it would be. I just wanted a soldier. Someone I could flirt with to get me in the door. That's when Lachlan Crow noticed me. Problem was, he wasn't a soldier. No, he was next in line for the throne of the Irish underworld. And he was determined to hate me from the outset. My sob story about needing a job? Yeah, he wasn't buying that either. Too bad for him, I won't let anyone get in the way of my mission. Who cares if we have some kind of crazy chemistry? He's the worst kind of wrong- and I would never in a million years be with a guy like him. Because they took her from me, and I'm going to make them pay

Emerald Lakes Book One

Growing up in Emerald Lakes, population six hundred and eighty-two, had been safe and comfortable. Running my own magic shop and making a living off my green witchcraft, I have no complaints. Sure, there's my ex, who never understood the word 'no', but there's also the lovable and eccentric townspeople who feel more like one huge extended family, and let's not forget my boy-crazed Gran who keeps us all on our toes. ...But something has apparently been missing, and the stars take it upon themselves to correct the problem, dropping four sexy men at my door. Well, not literally. They move into the apartment above my shop, so I'm their landlord. Drawn in by these mages who blew into town on a work assignment, a whole different kind of magic starts to grow between us, but my powers are doing things they shouldn't, and there's also a pesky prophecy to unravel.Strange, unnatural things are brewing in Emerald Lakes, and I can't ignore the sinking suspicion that something life-changing is headed my way. Discovering a whole new world of magic, I can only hope I don't lose myself in the madness. This is a full-length RH romance, which includes MMFMM content. It ends on a cliffhanger and contains brief references to domestic violence and other themes that readers may find triggering.

Mary Roach

Science Tackles the Afterlife

The best-selling author of Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers now trains her considerable wit and curiosity on the human soul.

What happens when we die? Does the light just go out and that's thatthe million-year nap? Or will some part of my personality, my me-ness persist? What will that feel like? What will I do all day? Is there a place to plug in my lap-top?" In an attempt to find out, Mary Roach brings her tireless curiosity to bear on an array of contemporary and historical soul-searchers: scientists, schemers, engineers, mediums, all trying to prove (or disprove) that life goes on after we die. She begins the journey in rural India with a reincarnation researcher and ends up in a University of Virginia operating room where cardiologists have installed equipment near the ceiling to study out-of-body near-death experiences. Along the way, she enrolls in an English medium school, gets electromagnetically haunted at a university in Ontario, and visits a Duke University professor with a plan to weigh the consciousness of a leech. Her historical wanderings unearth soul-seeking philosophers who rummaged through cadavers and calves' heads, a North Carolina lawsuit that established legal precedence for ghosts, and the last surviving sample of "ectoplasm" in a Cambridge University archive.

An Indie Next Pick! Rival archaeologists must team up on a secret Aztec expedition, or it could leave their careers—and hearts—in ruins. Archaeologist Dr. Socorro “Corrie” Mejía has a bone to pick. Literally. It’s been Corrie’s life goal to lead an expedition deep into the Mexican jungle in search of the long-lost remains of her ancestor, Chimalli, an ancient warrior of the Aztec empire. But when she is invited to join an all-expenses-paid dig to do just that, Corrie is sure it’s too good to be true...and she’s right. As the world-renowned expert on Chimalli, by rights Corrie should be leading the expedition, not sharing the glory with her disgustingly handsome nemesis. But Dr. Ford Matthews has been finding new ways to best her since they were in grad school. Ford certainly isn’t thrilled either—with his life in shambles, the last thing he needs is a reminder of their rocky past. But as the dig begins, it becomes clear they’ll need to work together when they realize a thief is lurking around their campsite, forcing the pair to keep their discoveries—and lingering attraction—under wraps. With money-hungry artifact smugglers, the Mexican authorities, and the lies between them closing in, there’s only one way this all ends—explosively.

It's one hex of an attraction in this romantic comedy from New York Times bestselling author Jessica Clare. When Reggie Johnson answers a job ad in the paper, she's astonished to find that she's not applying to work at her favorite card game, Spellcraft: The Magicking. Instead, she's applying to be an actual familiar for an actual witch. As in, real magic. The new job has a few perks - great room and board, excellent pay, and she's apprenticing to a powerful witch. Sure, the witch is a bit eccentric. And sure, there was that issue with the black cat Reggie would prefer to forget about. The biggest problem, however, is warlock Ben Magnus, her employer's nephew and the most arrogant, insufferable, maddening man to ever cast a spell. Reggie absolutely hates him. He's handsome, but he's also bossy and irritating and orders her around. Ben's butt might look great in a crystal ball vision, but that's as far as it goes. But when someone with a vendetta targets the household, she finds herself working with Ben to break a deadly curse. Apparently, when they're not fighting like cats and dogs, things get downright...bewitching.

Do you like your love stories dark and twisted?I’m not entirely sure how to tell our story.I always think I’ll fail at doing it justice.Most people like a feel-good romance.They like having a hero they can root for or an antihero that is slightly apologetic.This is the complete opposite of that.I fell for a man with a pitch-black soul and a charm so deceptive he could outwit the Devil.Our relationship was far from sunshine and rainbows.It was toxic, twisted, and dangerously addictive.He wasn’t an easy man to love.He had a bad habit of breaking my heart, just to rebuild it and shatter it again.It's easier to explain it from the very beginning, so that's what I'll try to do.But first, a word of warning, this isn't going to be pretty or even in the realm of what some can stomach or fathom, but I promise there's a happily ever after at the end.

For fans of Marie Lu and James Dashner comes the first book in an epic new series. “Never have I read a book so wholly unique and utterly captivating.” —Marie Lu, New York Times bestselling author of the Legend trilogy This morning, Kady thought breaking up with Ezra was the hardest thing she'd have to do. This afternoon, her planet was invaded. The year is 2575, and two rival megacorporations are at war over a planet that's little more than an ice-covered speck at the edge of the universe. Too bad nobody thought to warn the people living on it. With enemy fire raining down on them, Kady and Ezra—who are barely even talking to each other—are forced to fight their way onto one of the evacuating fleet, with an enemy warship in hot pursuit. But their problems are just getting started. A deadly plague has broken out and is mutating, with terrifying results; the fleet's AI, which should be protecting them, may actually be their enemy; and nobody in charge will say what's really going on. As Kady hacks into a tangled web of data to find the truth, it's clear only one person can help her bring it all to light: the ex-boyfriend sheswore she'd never speak to again! Told through a fascinating dossier of hacked documents—including emails, schematics, military files, IMs, medical reports, interviews, and more—Illuminae is the first book in a heart-stopping, high-octane trilogy about lives interrupted, the price of truth, and the courage of everyday heroes.

JAMES EDWARD CLINTON--He had everything: wealth, power, privilege--everything except the woman and the son he loved more than life itself. From the moment he first saw Alaina on that moonlit highway, he longed to possess her with an enduring passion time could not destroy.

ALAINA GRANGER--Proud, courageous, with an inherent grace that would become her only shield in a life rocked by scandal, she gave her heart and soul to one man who was forever tied to another woman ... a woman who would become Alaina's greatest enemy in a battle where no weapon was too small, no victory too great.

SHE FOUGHT HIS ADVANCES...
Lovely Breda Vivien was livid! The law threatened that unless she married, she might lose her beloved Cornwall estate. The proud, raven-haired Breda refused to barter herself to a man--not even the rugged Richard Delacey, who'd no sooner sailed into town than tempted her with kisses as wild as the moorland's purple heather. His loving left her spellbound, but Breda wondered--was he her dream lover sent by fortune... or a vile fortune-hunter? Until she was certain, Breda would hold her ground. Yet how long could she deny the sweet rapture of Richard's tender embrace?

BUT HE WOULD NEVER RETREAT
A true adventurer, ex-regimental officer Richard Delacey had thought nothing could surprise him after years of world travel, yet he was plainly ambushed by the spirited, sharp-tongued Breda. She was pure innocence with a ripe, sweet body and a spirit more fiery than he could have dreamed! Although she drew her battle lines, he knew she enjoyed his passionate advances, and the flames that leapt from her angry green eyes only tempted him more. She was quite a challenge, but he would soon carry her to the marriage bed--for she was his dream, and he had vowed to become her...
