#1 in paranormal [20.11.2024] #2 in fiction [22.10.2024] #2 in paranormal-romance [2.1.2025] #4 in scifi-romance [14.11.2024] #5 in steamy [14.1.2025] ✅️Updating ❗️NOTE: The story takes its time to establish a rich, complex world before the main characters meet. It is a slow burn, but worth it. ~ After a devastating alien invasion leaves Earth in ruins, humanity struggles to survive in isolated zones, clinging to life behind barriers of failing technology. Lena, a skilled engineer with fierce determination, dedicates her life to maintaining what little remains of this protective technology-especially the light posts that keep the Xyvarians at bay. But when a search for medicine pulls her outside the safe zone, she encounters a certain alien. Towering, muscular, and adorned with sharp, curving horns, this alien is a calculated hunter, though his interest in Lena is anything but logical. Drawn to her, he pursues her in a dangerous game of cat and mouse, one that blurs the line between predator and prey. As Lena fights to evade capture, the tension between them ignites into a charged, forbidden attraction that neither can fully understand. He is unlike any alien she's ever faced-Machiavellian, dangerous, unyielding, yet inexplicably captivated by her. Lena, wary and unwilling to surrender, finds herself both repelled and fascinated by the Xyvarian who watches her with a gaze that burns with something far more primal. As she grapples with confusing desires and the disturbing revelation of a breeding program, Lena is forced to question everything-her survival, her humanity, and her heart. ~ (The artwork featured in my cover photo was sourced from Pinterest.

Estelle wishes to die. She has spent the last decade of her life sleeping on the streets of the city, hunting alley rats for food and desperately struggling to survive her life of isolation. But she can't suffer any longer, so she decides that she's going to hike up the mountain, find the tallest cliff at the top, and gracefully fall to her death. But the mountain was forbidden. Long ago, hunters had run back to the city screaming of monsters and ghosts - bleeding with ugly wounds that were evidence of blades and steel. And the female hunters slowly began disappearing in the dark woods, the men claiming they were kidnapped by the shadows. The mountain was a death sentence. Except that was exactly what Estelle was looking for. But her plan takes a dark turn when a lighting storm forces her to find shelter in a cave. And she is not alone. She finds out there are creatures that have lived under the mountain in secret for centuries, creatures that are desperate for a mate. And here she was, alone in a cave with one. He is kind to her, he feeds her, he ensures her safety. And he demands for her sweet surrender. ----------------------------- Monster Romance 18+

In a brutal world where Omegas are hunted and hoarded as breeding prizes, Aria has spent her entire life hiding in plain sight. Taking highly illegal, dangerous scent-blockers, she successfully disguises herself as a lowly, invisible Beta maid in the fortress of Alpha Silas. Silas is the most ruthless, feral warlord on the continent. Known as the "Mad King," he rules with absolute terror because his inner beast is spiraling out of control without a mate to ground him. Aria's plan is simple: keep her head down, scrub the floors, and survive. But during a violent, chaotic pack ambush in the courtyard, the torrential rain washes away her scent-blockers. Suddenly, the intoxicating, impossible scent of a pure, untamed Omega floods the battlefield. Alpha Silas doesn't just stop the attack-he slaughters the enemy and immediately locks down his entire impenetrable fortress. No one gets in. No one gets out. The deadliest man alive is now hunting for the scent that just drove his inner wolf into absolute, terrifying obsession. He orders every single female in the pack to be lined up. And Aria knows that when the Mad King finally finds her, he will never let her go.

"I want you." With a touch as light as a feather, Cillian hooked a thick finger under her chin to get a better look at her face. "Look at me." Slowly, her eyes cracked open, but she didn't dare meet his eyes. His grip tightened ever so slightly, a warning. Her breath caught in her throat when she looked at him- I mean, really looked at him. His golden eyes were as direct, not even blinking as much as the average person. They glistened in the moonlight that peeked through the blinds, bringing an inhuman shine to them. A satisfied smile stretched across his lips until his prominent canines made an appearance. A finger tugged on the collar of her shirt and dragged it down- just enough to reveal the mark that was imprinted forever on her delicate neck. "Do remember what this means?" It was this speech, this deep, heavy voice of his that immediately set him apart from everyone else. No longer able to hold his gaze, her eyes fell and she shook her head. His hand caught somewhere behind her neck and base of her jaw to tilt her head back so her eyes met his. "I think you do." He persisted. His other hand came up to lightly brush the hair back away from her face. "What are we, hmm?" His fingers trailed down the curves of her body until they settled on her hips to gently tug her closer, pulling a sharp inhale from her. With their bodies pressed together, hearts racing in sync, and butterflies fluttering in both of their stomachs, she peeked up at him once more. A shudder shot down her spine as he leaned in to nuzzle her neck, his hot breath fanning against the mark. "C'mon, say it." He breathily taunted. With a shaky breath, she whispered, "we're mates." - ranks - #1 new story #1 wolf # 2 alpha

"I've been taught that girls have no value, and he's the only one who assures me that I do." Soleil is a girl. A young woman. A female. She couldn't hate it more, because in her society that cursed gender makes her expendable. The war that was wrought on Earth years ago destroyed society, and men almost went extinct. Repopulation is the propriety, even if it means marrying a man with 8 other wives to become a baby making machine. When she meets an enormous alien man through a window, she slowly comes to realize that she is meant for more. She sneaks away every night after that to meet him, finding herself falling for all 7 feet of him.... even if she can't understand a thing that he says. Fray has come from Rytaria to collect human females, the salvation of his race. As soon as he meets his precious Soleil, he knows he has to have her. Little does she know that Fray will do whatever it takes to make her his mate, and he will worship the very ground she walks on.

He calls himself the Prince. He is humanoid but not human--fascinating, sensual, at the cusp of maturity, and accustomed to getting what he wants. And Lydia has awoken in his world to find that she has been given to him--as a pet, a plaything, and, if he so desires, a lover. As Lydia comes to realize that the Prince is as much a prisoner to his culture's ways as she is, her resentment slowly unfurls into pity, understanding, curiosity, and a deep, unpredictable, consuming lust. She wants him too, on her own terms. But in a world fraught with hidden dangers, her terms are not open for discussion, not when their thirst for one another could doom them both. In a court where monarchs are obeyed and sexual hierarchies are strict, one wrong move could end the Prince for ever... and what would happen to Lydia then? * This novel was originally published by Circlet Press in 2015 under the pseudonym Peggy Barnett. This novel is erotica, so please read at your own discretion. Visit www.jmfrey.net for more of my work. Cover by Archia.
