ON GOOD READ SO YOU CAN ADD TO YOUR COUNT Mackenzie "Mac" Weaver has spent almost two years perfecting the art of being low-maintenance-quiet, accommodating, and easy to love. As an international student from Australia studying design at Frostford University, Minnesota, she's built what she thought was a stable life: a solid relationship, a carefully curated apartment, and the promise of a future that won't fall apart like her parents' marriage did. But when that carefully constructed life shatters in a single afternoon, Mac finds herself with nowhere to go and everything to lose. Her student visa depends on staying enrolled, her budget can't handle living alone, and going home isn't an option. Enter Maya Laurent, Mac's fiercely protective best friend, and her older brother Jace. A charming hockey player for the Frostford Wolves with a reputation for being as smooth on the ice as he is off it. What starts as a temporary 'crash on their couch' becomes something more complicated when Mac officially moves into their spare room and finds herself pulled into the loud, chaotic world of college hockey. As Mac learns to take up space instead of making herself smaller, she'll discover that sometimes the people who see you best aren't the ones you bend yourself into shapes for-and that finding your voice might mean letting go of everything you thought you needed to be. A story about healing, finding your strength, and learning that being soft doesn't mean being weak.

ON GOOD READ SO YOU CAN ADD TO YOUR COUNT I was human once... until the Alpha King called me little mate. Nineteen-year-old Tahlia Moore never believed in fate. She worked at a bookstore, worried about rent, and lived a perfectly ordinary life-until she attended her best friend's mating celebration and made eye contact with the wrong man. Malakai Hawthorne. Alpha King of North America. The most powerful wolf alive. The mate bond hit like lightning. Impossible. Unprecedented. In three thousand years of werewolf history, no Alpha King has ever had a mate-especially not a human. When she runs, he chases. When he catches her and growls "little mate," everything changes. Now she's trapped in his world, fighting for acceptance in a nation that sees her as an abomination. The Elder Council demands Malakai reject her or lose his crown. Rival Alphas plan her assassination. And an ancient prophecy declares she'll either unite the fractured packs or watch them drown in blood. But Tahlia isn't just human. Dormant magic sleeps in her veins-power waiting to ignite. When she passes the brutal Moon Trials and achieves the impossible, she proves she's worthy of standing beside a King. Two souls. One heart. A love that will reshape a nation.

One lesson I learned very early in life was to be cheerful, to be agreeable, to do as I was told and ask for nothing, and to never ever complain. Smile Maddie. Be happy Maddie. Don't make trouble and maybe they'll love you. I grew into an adult who took care of others and never expected that those I loved would take care of me in return. I gave and never asked, never expected, never demanded. Smile Maddie. Be happy Maddie. Don't make trouble and you'll find someone that will love you. And then one day, a Dragon walked into my workplace and turned my world upside down with a single wink. Having grown up watching his father treat his men like they were disposable, just meat bags to be fed into the grinder, Dragon was determined to be different when he became president of the Dragon's Inferno MC. He cares about his people. He takes care of them. He was upfront with me, taking care of his MC and those he considered to be his would always be his priority. And I agreed to that, I joined him in that mission, throwing myself into becoming the perfect old lady of the prez. Smile Maddie. Act happy Maddie. Take care of them and maybe they'll love you. Smile Maddie. Be happy Maddie. Don't complain and maybe he'll love you. I told myself I was independent. I was strong. And I didn't need my Dragon to take care of me. And I almost believed it. Almost. But now I'm watching him with her. I'm watching him comfort her. I'm watching him listen to her, support her, reassure her. I'm watching him take time from his day to check in with her. I'm watching him worry about her. I'm watching them become closer right in front of my eyes. I'm seeing every thoughtful gesture he does for her. And me? I'm not happy. I'm not smiling. I'm done being agreeable. Fuck not causing trouble. I'm about to set my Dragon's world on fire. And then I'm walking away. She can have him. For the first time in my life, I'm choosing myself.

But when you're the star player of the hockey team, your father is one of the richest men in the country, and you have the looks of a tortured fallen angel, not many people seem to care. He certainly doesn't, not when he's too busy riding around with a visible chip on his shoulder. And boy, are they nice shoulders. *~*~* Sophie Pritchett craves normalcy after a lifetime of self-imposed isolation. With her dad's support and her therapist's gentle encouragement, she finally feels ready to step out into the world - or at least into a shared off-campus apartment with a few strangers. Tentatively, of course. Totally doable, right? Only it's not that easy. The girls aren't for the faint-hearted, and that's exactly what Sophie is. Her struggles with personal boundaries and social settings make it more than obvious that she's weird - and that's not including her strange obsession. When the hockey team starts volunteering at the hospital where Sophie teaches art therapy, she suddenly has the perfect excuse to feed that obsession - one that just happens to have Conrad Taylor written all over it. But when an unlikely friendship begins to form between Sophie, Conrad, and Casey - a witty little boy who's been dealt an unfair hand in life - Sophie learns there's a lot more hidden beneath the rude, sarcastic, and cold exterior of Conrad. Maybe he's just a broken little boy with a heart that feels too much. *~*~* Grumpy/Sunshine - Bad boy/Good girl - hates everyone except her Romance with a Brooke Bennett spin on it😜 Book 2 in the Campus Kings Series, but can be read as a STAND-ALONE.
