She's a freak

Born with congenital analgesia, Olivia York's inability to feel pain is expected-feeling nothing at all is not. Betrayed and unemployed, Olivia joins Cirque des Curiosités, a traveling circus with heavy emphasis on the strange and exotic. She's hired to sell tickets, but when her unique oddity is discovered, she becomes Orion the ringmaster's assistant in a dangerous performance on the centre stage.

He's off limits

Cairo, the son of the Cirque's ringmaster is the one man Olivia needs to stay away from. But his rippling muscles, dark tattoos and sensual lips intoxicate her, and before long she surrenders.


When girls start to go missing, her burning need to solve the unfolding mystery leads her to After Dark, the erotic late-night version of the Cirque. Orion is determined to break her bond to Cairo through any means possible, even if it leave Olivia scarred or dead.

In a world built on illusion and deception, Olivia's quest to feel something more than curiosity might come at a very steep price.

Whispers in Secret by NeeksNeika

*** A Steamy Romance *** Ella Montgomery is a fiercely determined law student at Oxford University, juggling her ambitious studies while harboring an undeniable secret crush on Lucien Storm, her father's charismatic best friend. From the moment she first laid eyes on him, Lucien's magnetic presence ignited feelings within her that she desperately tries to suppress. She understands that her future hinges on her education, not on the fantasies of being swept away in his arms. Unbeknownst to Ella, Lucien is equally captivated by her.

The forbidden nature of their feelings creates a tension neither can ignore, even as they try to maintain a semblance of normalcy. Lucien often finds himself lost in fantasies, imagining the feel of Ella's warm body against his, her nails tracing the intricate tattoos that tell his story, and the way her mouth would taste against him. Each thought is both intoxicating and torturous, as he grapples with the consequences of pursuing a romance that could shatter the bonds of friendship and loyalty. As they both navigate their intense emotions, they face the daunting question: Can love flourish in the shadows of secrecy and loyalty, or will their desires lead to heartbreak and chaos? Their journey will test the limits of their hearts, challenging everything they thought they knew about love, power, and the sacrifices they're willing to make for a chance at happiness. In a world where danger lurks at every corner, Ella and Lucien must decide if they are brave enough to confront their feelings, or if the pain of unrequited love will ultimately consume them both.

Shadows of the Night by charlizekkelly

"Nothing good ever came without sacrifice. Some of us just found clarity in the darkness of those shadows." *** Nyx Monroe grew up with terrifying tales of golden-eyed beasts with nightmarish fangs and murderous tendencies but as time passed, she forgot about them, convinced they were just scary stories. When her father, Azeil Monroe, is tasked with solving the murder plaguing the coastal city of Celacali, it's a chance at a fresh start. However, Nyx discovers everything is not what it seems beneath the veneer of the popular tourist location, also known as the City of the Dead. Something dark resides there-death and carnage reincarnate. Plunged into the city's shadows, Nyx stumbles into the open arms of notorious Orion, Kotori, Niko, and Kade-the boardwalk is their blood-stained domain. They've been waiting for twenty-five years to exact their revenge for a debt long overdue, luring Nyx and her father back to where it all began. Whilst they distract Azeil with one murder case after the other, their focus shifts to Nyx. Soon, there's nowhere left for her to run-to hide-from the true beasts of legend, or from the darkness of her past.
