SLOW BURN

by Dani Skye

He's loved her since high school. He just had to make 94 PowerPoint slides to say it. A small-town firefighter romance about the firefighter who waited seventeen years, the artist learning to come home to herself, and the Colorado town that refuses to let either of them do it alone. Harlow Green came back to Collins, Colorado with a chocolate lab named Cassidy, an MFA she stopped using, and three years of bruises she is finally done carrying. She is not looking for a love story. She is looking for somewhere safe enough to start painting again. Then her Victorian decides to murder her with a chandelier. Captain Jake Bowers has been in love with Harlow since junior year of high school. He has 94 PowerPoint slides on the subject. Charts. Graphs. A risk-assessment matrix. He also has the only crew in town qualified to keep responding to her possibly-haunted house, and a barn studio he built on faith before she even knew she needed one. In six weeks, Harlow’s first solo gallery show opens in Denver. On her ex-husband’s territory. Jake promised to stand beside her, not in front. It might be the hardest promise he has ever kept. And the 247-member town group chat, plus one peacock named Kevin in a tactical vest, has decided these two have waited long enough. The odds were low. But that was always going to be okay.

What He'd Burn

by Ella Mitchelltree

"He'd burn the world down for you" is the most romantic line in fantasy. Until someone actually does it. Anna Iverson has spent her life proving she doesn't need anyone — a useful skill when your mother abandoned you to chase a mythical fated mate bond that never materialized. Now twenty-four and clawing her way toward pediatric cancer research on no sleep and no money, Anna's careful independence shatters the moment she shakes Jacob Tatum's hand. The bond snaps into place. Permanent. Intoxicating. Undeniable. Jacob is brilliant, protective, and utterly devoted. He's also a billionaire assassin who kills people for a living. At first, Anna rationalizes. He only eliminates people causing active harm — traffickers, murderers, monsters the legal system won't touch. The bond pulls her closer. His money solves problems she's been drowning under for years. She tells herself she can separate the man she loves from what he does. But Jacob's devotion doesn't have a ceiling. His protection doesn't have a line. And the fated mate bond that promised her a fairy tale? It doesn't come with an exit. What happens when "he'd do anything for you" stops being romantic — and you're the one who has to survive it? WHAT HE'D BURN is a dark fantasy romance and the first in a duology. For readers who love Sarah J. Maas and Rebecca Ross but want their morally grey characters examined rather than excused. Content warnings: violence, reproductive coercion, captivity, morally complex themes. This book goes there. [Read More]

Of Ice and Innocence

by Karen Hunter

She fought for her freedom. He's dying without her. Fate doesn't care what either of them wants. Book 2 of The Dragon's Flame Series. This story stands on its own, set within the world of The Dragon’s Flame. While returning characters make appearances, no prior reading is required. Though readers familiar with the first book may recognise a few extra layers. Laya survived four brutal Chases to remain unclaimed — the only free female wolf in a generation. She chose scars over submission and solitude over a mate who would strip away everything she'd bled to protect. The last thing she needs is a diplomatic mission into dragon territory. Kaeldric, advisor to the Dragon King, has been fading for months — his dragon slowly dying because he refused a mate bond he couldn't accept. When he finally finds her, she's everything he dreamed of and nothing he prepared for: a wolf warrior with claws already extended, who would sooner gut him than acknowledge what they both know. One crumbling railing. One frozen river. One impossible bond neither can outrun. Stranded in the wilderness with broken ribs, a dislocated shoulder, and only each other, enemies have no choice but to survive together. But surviving is the easy part. When they return to civilisation, their bond will either become the bridge between two warring peoples — or the spark that ignites the war that destroys them both. A wolf who refuses to be claimed. A dragon who's running out of time. And a mate bond that will demand the one thing neither of them is willing to give. [Read More]

by Zenna Lake

This is Book 2 of The Shackled Oath series. She survived captivity. But survival was never the same thing as healing. Azaria Sylvenhart was freed from captivity. What they could not free was her mind. Broken by what was done to her and driven by something darker than grief, Azaria descends into a war of her own making—one her squad watches helplessly, caught between reaching for her and fearing she may no longer want to be reached. Dain fights to hold her together. And Quinton Thornvale, the blood mage who would burn kingdoms to keep her alive, is learning that saving Azaria’s life and reaching her are not the same thing—and that whatever is growing between them was never going to survive unscarred. But darkness does not wait for her to heal. Hunted by the same forces that have tried to destroy her from the beginning, Azaria is forced to confront what she is willing to become in order to survive.
