When little Isla Mae returns home from college, no one believes how much she's grown-- including her brother's best friend. | NEW CHAPTERS EVERY WEDNESDAY AT 5PM EST |

Her love is a weapon. It's killed before. And this time, she's sworn it won't happen again. Everyone at Blackthorn University thinks Kara is just another human girl juggling midterms, frat parties, and overpriced lattes. No one suspects the truth: that she's a Phoenix shifter, hiding in plain sight in a world ruled by werewolves and lycans. Even her closest friends don't know the fire simmering beneath her skin. But Kara isn't just hiding from them, she's hiding from fate. From the one thing she dreads more than anything else: her mate. She's done letting her love be a death sentence. She won't survive another loss. The scars she bears run deeper than flesh. So when Ryker, the dangerously magnetic lycan General, realizes Kara is his fated mate, she does exactly what she swore she would. She pushes him away. Again. And again. And again. But lycans don't walk away from their mates. And Ryker? He's dominant, possessive, and utterly relentless. He's a storm she can't outrun, a flame that won't go out. And every heated glance, every stolen moment, threatens to shatter the walls she's spent years building. As secrets ignite and her past begins to unravel, Kara must face the truth: Can she let herself love again, knowing it could destroy them both? Or will her lies-and the deadly curse entwined with her love-be the very thing that dooms them forever?

An adaptation to the fairy tale "Beauty and the Beast", Rhys Ashcroft is vain and arrogant until a near-fatal accident brutally maims his features. Presumed dead, Rhys resides alone in Falmouth Castle, away from society which was just the way he preferred. Enter Danielle Carmichael: a curious country miss who is drawn to the hostile, cloaked stranger for reasons unknown to her.

Captain Cole Stanley was a man bound to the sea and lands beyond the stifling industry of London. There was no space in his busy lifestyle for a woman, especially not a prim little miss like Oriana Brightmore. Yet despite her shyness, there appeared to be an underlying wit and spirit to her personality that Cole begins to find irresistible. Oriana always thought that her future-husband should be charming and even-tempered; none of which belonged to Captain Stanley- the odious guest residing with the Ashcroft's for a short spell. Although the obnoxious man vexed her beyond reason, he also may just be her only solution to finding a man who will want her- one that was currently on his way to the Americas.

Lady Evelyn Wyndham never imagined seduction would make her debut to-do list. Preparing for the Season isn't just about gowns, balls, & social calls-it also demands mastering the silent language of fans, handkerchiefs, and stolen kisses. With her debut fast approaching, Evelyn refuses to be caught unprepared. What she lacks in experience, she intends to learn-and there's only one man she trusts with such a delicate task. Captain Emmett Shaw thought love was beyond his reach. An injury destroyed his military ambitions, leaving him haunted by failure and guilt. His aunt drags him to Eltham Palace, hoping the change of scenery will mend his spirit. He never expected his second cousin, who he remembered in his youth as an imp-to transform into a determined young swan with a reckless proposition. Evelyn asks Emmett to become her tutor in flirtation and seduction. Reluctant at first, he cannot resist her earnestness-or the danger of her blossoming allure. But guiding her through the art of desire soon tests his every boundary. The girl he once teased now tempts him with not only her tempting body, but caring nature. The purpose is purely scientific before finding her Prince Charming. Yet the more Emmett uncovers what her soul desires, the more he realizes he doesn't want to let her go. Can he keep their lessons from becoming something deeper-or will he risk everything to claim the woman who has unexpectedly captured his heart? Author's Note: First draft is complete.
