A modern day retelling of “Beauty and the Beast” ***Recommended for ages 18+ due to multiple, creative, detailed, steamy, sexy-time adult situations.*** For a thousand years, Chace has searched for a way to break the curse placed on him by a jilted lover. He’s a dragon shifter, one who can’t control when the magic will force him into a different form. He’s already lost everyone he ever cared about a few times over and doesn’t know how much longer he’s meant to suffer. At his wit’s end, he makes a deal with a mysterious figure that offers him what he wants most – an end to his misery – in exchange for everything that’s his: His life, his power. His heart. The next day, he meets Skylar, a modern day dragon slayer whose mission is to cage him – or kill him. Sexy, witty and brave, she is the yin to his yang, the woman destined to break the curse, balance his magic and make his broken heart whole. Except it’s too late. Not only has he sealed his fate, but an innocent one-night-stand with Skylar has dragged her into the middle of a deal with the devil, one she won’t escape, if he can’t convince her that dragon shifters aren’t her enemies.

I will be your heart, if you will be my shield. In a world where magic supposedly didn't exist, Serena has spent years struggling to conceal her unpredictable singing magic. While wishing for a peaceful life where she can sing without fear, she sees a man in handcuffs being forced into a shady research center. Their eyes meet, and the soulbond is forged. Darien is not from this world, and he's been held captive for years. With the soulbond amplifying his strength, he can fight his way through almost everything, but not every danger can be fought with fists. Their love draws them together even as power-hungry enemies try to pry them apart. They want to control Darien for their own purposes, but he's too strong to be controlled by force. Their love is their greatest strength-and their biggest vulnerability. But magic has its own rules, and no song can go unanswered. Excerpt: I pitied the man, although with so many cops around him, he was quite dangerous. Who needed 30 police officers to supervise one guy who in handcuffs and leg shackles? I watched him walk down the gauntlet between the rows of officers. It was as if I couldn't look away. He paused and looked around. His brilliant glowing blue eyes seemed to meet mine across the vast distance. I couldn't even blink as his eyes seemed to hold mine. The trees of a park broke our locked gaze as the bus kept on driving. I took a deep breath, suddenly realizing that I had stopped breathing the moment our eyes met. I had never seen such blue eyes before-and they glowed! A shiver ran through me. I had been too far away to make out the color of the man's eyes. My eyes watched the trees, hoping for a break in them so I could see the man again. I had no such luck. --- Fade-to-black action fantasy romance Copyright November 2017.

Tired of the same formula used in the werewolf books here on Wattpad? Look no further! Ettore is written with a fresh, new concept and will NOT involve typical cliches such as: - A possessive Alpha with a black-furred wolf - A pushover female lead that always blacks out at the beginning or gets kidnapped - No use of "MINE" - And most importantly a predictable plot Ettore has a whole new spin and perspective that will keep you on your toes and will revive your enjoyment of the supernatural and werewolf kind. Treat yourself by taking a chance and straying from the predictable. Pains me to make this more obvious, but TW: this description is SATIRE. Temporary Summary: Vessel; NOUN (person): a person who has a particular quality or who is used for a particular purpose. That's all Ettore was in the beginning until later on, he proved to be so much more. Many years ago, an infidelious lycan gave birth to a child that was fathered by another man. To cover up her unfaithfulness she sought out a witch that would trap the soul of her baby in a vessel forged by black magic. This vessel was his own person and would live as such until his fifteenth birthday when the truth began to unravel. The vessel was to live a life that was meant for the baby; his fate was one that wasn't his own. He lived a lie that was fabricated by his toxic mother and the black magic she called upon. And now the soul of the trapped child is powerful enough to come to the surface and claim his rights to life and throne.

And thanks to High Commander Grouchy Bird Diah's behavior, they were nearly mated! But wait... there's more! Now all the Aeries of the Luvian people just HAVE to be the ones with bragging rights to the lone 'wingless female'... so now Alanna has the dubious honor of being fought over in a damn tourney!
