BLACK WOMAN X WHITE MAN/ASIAN MAN "You want to play games? Fine. But we play them my way." Camila Quinn built her life on discipline. A pre-med student with a flawless GPA, meticulous routines, and a future mapped years in advance, she believes in control-in earning what she wants and keeping drama at arm's length. Even her relationship with Alex Walker, the star quarterback she's been with since high school, fits neatly into that plan. Until it doesn't. College changed him. The attention, the ego, the entitlement that comes with being untouchable. Slowly, the respect fades. The excuses stack up. The silences grow louder. And eventually, the truth becomes impossible to ignore. Alex was unfaithful. He never says it outright, but the disrespect is evident. Camila tries to let go. Tries to be the bigger person. But heartbreak curdles into something sharper when she realizes how little he seems to care. One disrespect for another. Anger takes root. And then there's Leo Brooks. Alex's former best friend. His unresolved rivalry. A transfer student with his own reputation, his own edge, and a very clear reason to hate Alex just as much as she does. Leo keeps appearing-everywhere. Unintentional of course, but; That's when the idea forms. What starts as strategy quickly turns dangerous. Because Leo isn't a pawn, and Camila isn't as unaffected as she pretends to be. The more they blur the lines between revenge and desire, the harder it becomes to tell what's real-and who's going to get hurt in the process.

In a primal world that favors the strong and punishes the weak, Aria knew that her family's pack would not survive long when her father's health began to fail. Her fears come to life when the Intonat Nocte Pack attacks, demanding that they surrender or face a slow, painful death. Desperate to keep his family alive, Aria's father bends the knee and offers his loyalty- and his beautiful daughter- to the enemy. Although terrified of the infamously cruel Intonat Nocte Pack's alpha, Aria prepares to give her body and soul to this unknown man. As the final bargains are being struck, however, Fate decides that her life and her heart belong to another... Since a tragic attack at the age of five rendered him disfigured and unable to speak, Malik contented himself to a life in the shadows. Ashamed of what he'd become, he forsook his birthright to lead and instead honed himself into an infamously ruthless warrior, blackening his heart to mirror his monstrous appearance. Now serving as his younger brother's prized weapon, Malik strikes fear into the hearts of all who cross the Intonat Nocte Pack. And yet, when Fate ties his life to a young woman with a heart as beautiful as her appearance, Malik must step out of the shadows to claim her as his own. After a lifetime of loss, he will not allow anyone to steal her from him.
