They don’t go to the brick wall. No one in the village does. Ever since I was a little girl, everyone has warned me not to go or even to look at it. And if you happen to find yourself close to the wall, run as fast and as far away as you can. The magic from the beast creeps beyond the wall, but not by much. No one who values their life approaches the enchanted area, let alone searches out the gate. Everyone is sure not to provoke the enchanted area. Those who do, don’t come back to tell their tales. The magic is dark. And it’s all from the beast.

When a group of six strangers are invited into the woods for a content creator retreat where they’re guaranteed to make money, it seems like a perfect escape. However, as accidents turn into incidents and blood begins to spill, they start to suspect they were lured into the wilderness for a reason. Is someone messing with them? Is someone watching them? Who will survive?

I'm not someone my mother would be proud to have given her life for. I've killed. Maimed. Hurt people far beyond the scope of what the human mind can imagine. Because that's what I was told I was. Destruction. And that's all I was good for. That's all I want to do right now. Breaker is a complicated man with many dark secrets. He's the breaker of rules, of codes, of men... He's also the only one who dares to defy Fallon, the powerful man who raised him and his brothers. The same man who stands between Breaker and everything he's ever wanted.

They didn't want me then, but it seems like the boys from my past don't want anyone else to have me either. We were always going to pack, but my teenage dreams were flipped upside down when they rejected me, leaving me bleeding and broken. I survived and found my way. Now, I'm returning home a completely different person to pack with my new alpha. First, though, I have to put an end to what the boys from my past started.

Police sirens ring louder while blood drips from my hands. I must hide, but it's Christmas Eve, and all houses shine with colorful lights. All but one. Too late do I realize the house is not empty. A woman lives here alone, hidden in the dark and playing a game. I don't kill innocents. It's my only rule. The woman doesn't scream or try to call the police. Her big, green eyes take me in with curiosity, and not even the blood on my gloves makes her flinch. She sees me at my worst—and she doesn't run.

Pack promised to a spiteful Alpha. Trapped in a never-ending nightmare. One person knows the truth, but he doesn't remember. Being allowed to attend Unity Collegiate might not be a dream to other Omegas, but it is for me. I make a promise to live each day as if it were my last. Almost immediately, I face a test of my newfound aspirations when I come face-to-face with one of the world's most popular music stars. Our connection is instant and impossible to ignore.

My name is Nova Stone and I was a ghost in my own life until a knock at the door changed my whole world. Applying for guardianship of my infant half-brother was a no brainer, even if I hadn't known he existed. But that was before I met his uncles; two pro ice hockey players, and a CEO. They wanted to take Huey home with them and they were willing to pay me millions of dollars for the privilege. When that didn't work, they managed to convince me that it would be better for my brother–and for me–if I moved into their Ann Arbor mansion.

My family has always told me I was destined for the Crawford Pack, my future set in stone from the day I was born. But I've never cared for the life of birthing babies for a pack. Not when I've got Jasper—rugged, packless, and watching me from across the ranch with a hunger in his eyes. The night he confesses his feelings, I run away with him. It's a dream come true until my heat hits—but one alpha isn't enough for an omega, and he leaves me. Desperate, I flee into the night, searching for relief. And that's when I find them.

The rock star never planned on fatherhood. The nanny never planned on staying. But sometimes the biggest surprises come wrapped in pink bows and second chances. Gavin “Rocket” Caldwell, member of the world’s biggest rock band, lives fast—sold-out tours, wild nights, and zero responsibilities. Until a three-year old daughter he never knew about lands on his doorstep, and suddenly, the party’s over.

We tore down every mafia family who dared to challenge us. Now we reign over this city. The three of us—Italian, Irish, and Bratva—are bound by the blood we shed. Nothing will stop us from building the empire we’ve dreamed of… except her. Eavan O’Brien, the forbidden little sister of my best friend, who I never expected to care about. She’s meant to hate me, but I can’t shake the way she looks at me—defiant, beautiful, and the need to tame her far too tempting.

It was only supposed to be one night with a stranger I’d never see again. I’m not the dating type. Now, thanks to a little white lie we told that night, we’re pretending to be engaged for the sake of him saving face in front of his family. The more time we spend together, the closer we get. But I’m an Angel at Désirer—an exclusive adult club—my job is to be whatever men want me to be. There’s no room for a relationship. And with demons from my past still chasing me, the last thing I need is for a man like him to get tangled up with a woman like me. It will only end badly.

One man. Two names. Two personalities. One captivates, the other terrifies. Under the pretense of love, he used me, searching for secrets I didn't know I had. Cuddles, kisses, and whispered sweet nothings lulled me into a false sense of security that shattered with a single flashback. Running from the threat I now know he is, I fall straight into a nightmare… and the darkness reveals the truths. I’m not the center of Nash’s world. I’m a piece in Carter’s game.

It doesn't take her long to see that playing by the rules never did her any favors, and she vows to take the first exit out of Knotty Pines. But circumstances get in the way, and more than ten years later, she's still in her hometown. Despite what happened in high school, she thought she had moved on and made a nice, quiet life for herself. Then, Dane freaking Daniels walks back into town.

Atlan Warlord Velik is hanging on to sanity by a thread. His mating fever rages. His beast fights him every moment. The beast needs to hunt. To kill. To find their mate or surrender to a glorious death in battle. He volunteers for a mission so dangerous, he knows he will not return. Waiting to deploy, he is lost, keeping distance between himself and those his tormented beast could destroy. His fate is sealed … until his beast picks up her scent. Sees her face. In an instant, the beast knows this human woman belongs to him and no one else.

Seven years ago, a vile experience tore the two of them apart, leaving them shadows of their former selves. Ghosts to each other. A haunting. A haunting so deeply embedded that Linc now lives a reclusive life—hiding out in the Santa Monica mountains with his only friend, Ellis. A quiet existence.

KaiI was ruination. I took what I wanted when I wanted it without caring about the consequences. Power and control had always been my birthright. But then, she came along, dancing like a flame before me. She was a force of nature, untamable and wild, and she pulled at the darkest parts of my soul, igniting a hunger that consumed me whole. I craved her. Yearned for the intensity of her touch and the fire in her gaze. She was a tempest I couldn't predict and a wildfire I couldn't contain.
