When a scandal forces hockey star Amelia Bennett into a fake relationship with guarded photographer Harper Lane, neither expects the headlines, or the feelings, that follow.

In the elegant, chilling Head of Service, Lena, she sees a terrifying vision of what she is meant to become. As the line between savior and captor blurs, Emma must make a choice. But in the gilded cage of the Elysium, she is beginning to learn that the most dangerous prison is the one you learn to love.

The moons remember what the world has forgotten. Hidden among mortals by her mother, Herinity, Avyanna has always lived in the quiet shadow of her gifted sister, Delilah. She was never meant to awaken, but when it comes, what should have been her long-delayed awakening becomes something far older, far more dangerous - a power whispered about only in the oldest lunar myths: the Lost Moonstone. Now hunted by prophecy and dreams of a kingdom lost beneath fractured moons, Avyanna must navigate a world where truth and illusion blur, and every secret her mother kept begins to unravel. As war stirs beyond the veils of Galariah, ancient forces awaken - including the exiled god who calls her "daughter." The High Council fractures, her sister succumbs to shadow whispers, and reality itself begins to bend under her emotions. As the moons align and the veil between realms shatters, Avyanna must decide whether she will be the Balance reborn or the ruin her blood was destined to bring. Because when the violet moon rises, salvation and destruction will share the same face. Power born of moons always demands sacrifice. And Avyanna is beginning to fear the price is her soul. Family. Love. Friendship. Betrayal. Loss. Only fate is in control now.

He's off-limits... but resisting him might be impossible. *** When Madelaine Grayson's bathroom ceiling caves in, it's not just drywall that crumbles. It's her entire world. Forced to move in with her brother, she finds herself swept up in the chaos of his new protective attitude - especially when it comes to his tattooed roommate, Noah Laurier. Noah is the epitome of perfection: sweet, hot, and embedded into every thought Madelaine has. But he's forbidden, and the closer she gets, the harder he is to resist. Well... what her brother doesn't know can't hurt him, right? *** "Matt's sister, I presume?" He walks towards the couch and my eyes widen. He's tall. I thought I was tall but this man could tower me, and when he reaches a hand towards me, there's an intricate clock tattooed on the back of his hand and his fingers have bones tattooed over them. This man is not human. He's tall and angular and dripping with sex appeal. This man is hot. Capital H, capital O, capital T. I don't think I've ever seen a human being so attractive. All I can think about as I force myself to keep my eyes on the screen is the feel of his jaw beneath my hand, and it takes everything in me not to look back at him.

Feared across galaxies, Thraxos is a creature of obsession and power, and Belle's resistance only fuels his need to claim her. On a planet where human rules don't apply, desire turns dangerous-and love becomes a battle of wills.
