These supposed heroes destroy the city trying to stop villains. When they fall in battle, it's my job to keep them alive. Work is my life, which explains why I can't maintain more than meaningless one-night-stands. My life is about to change when a dying superhero chooses me to inherit their cosmic powers. Trust me, I find it ironic, too.

This movie was supposed to be my big break. There’s an enormous budget, the director is an Oscar winner, and the script is beautiful. But they want to film it in February. That’s complicated for an arctic fox shifter like me. We have a biological need for prolonged physical contact during burrowing season. I normally spend February cuddling with my family, not filming a movie in the middle of the woods. The studio said they’d find a professional cuddler for me. That seemed a little awkward, but I agreed to it. I figured they’d hire a woman or another male omega. But no.

Except, the more time that I spend with him, the more that I start to like him. Who knows, maybe by the end of this project, we can even be friends.

You’ve returned...good! Octavius Evander here, your lovable vampire detective. So, where we ended things last time, everything had gone horribly wrong. What can really be said, besides that change is a fact of life, and unlife. Turney, my love, my heart—unfortunately, he has much change to deal with. No matter, we will all get through it together! Some of us will be getting through it together, much closer than we ever expected, if you know what I mean.

The red wolf thrall brings grown men to their knees. All it takes is one look from an omega red wolf shifter, and men mistakenly believe they have found their fated mate. Kings have been dethroned, businessmen have lost fortunes, and heartless murderers have fallen helplessly in love under the curse of the thrall. Kai knows his feelings for Noah, a handsome red wolf shifter, may be nothing but pheromones and magic. But what is love, if not magic? Kai’s going after him anyway….

With a murder to solve, a company to run, and his two nieces to take care of, alpha wolf shifter Walker Olsen has no time for distractions. Hiring a manny will solve one of his problems. Walker just never expected his one true mate to turn up on his doorstep. Manny’s unbelievably sweet and great with kids. The omega’s also far too good to be wasted on a broken alpha like Walker.

He hasn’t aged a day, but the roadmap of scars he wears tells a chilling tale.

If there's one rule every pro-baller knows, it's to avoid the press like the plague. That doesn't stop Johnathan "Tuck" Tucker, the Rose City Roasters' second baseman with a heart of gold (and a hard-on for carbs), from hooking up with Portland's hot-shot sports journalist one summer evening. What starts as a one night stand quickly spirals into a series of steamy hook-ups between Tucker and the vegan-ish blond in khakis he can't resist. Getting involved with "the enemy" probably isn't the best idea, but a casual situationship couldn't hurt, right?
