The Witch's Broken Crown
by Calla Robin
An enemies-to-lovers romantasy with a slow-burn romance and court intrigue. Perfect for fans of star-crossed lovers and aching yearning. She should fear him. He should hate her. But a masquerade ball was all it took to bind them together forever. Her whole life, Elise Thornwall has wished for nothing more than to rid herself of the curse that has controlled her family for over five centuries and to claim her throne on her own terms. But hidden behind a white mask, she found the one man her heart could not refuse. Andrew Aistle is her enemy. And, apparently, her fate. With war threatening their kingdoms and treachery lurking in every shadow, Elise and Andrew must do the impossible. Trust each other. Trusting your enemy is a dangerous game. And falling in love, even worse. Five hundred years of bitterness cannot be undone by love… can it? [Read More]
Breaking the Captain
by Megan Tate
Luke Callahan runs the first lap on fresh ice every morning. He keeps his hands flat on his thighs when his pulse misbehaves. At twenty-two he's the youngest captain in the league, the golden boy with the clean stat line — and lately he's been jolting awake at five a.m. from a dream about a faceless man, a hand at his throat, a voice telling him to let go. Then the Titans trade for Evan Mercer: same position, dark hair, broken nose, and zero interest in being convenient for anybody after his last team quietly shipped him out for being caught with the wrong person. Evan looks at the captain wound tight across the faceoff dot and figures he's going to crack. He's right. He's just early. A turf war over one roster spot turns into board battles that last a beat too long, a handshake held a second past polite, and a pull Luke has no language for. Evan isn't asking him to come out. He's just standing there — steady, patient, unafraid — holding the door. All Luke has to do is stop running long enough to walk through it. Breaking the Captain is a slow-burn, explicit MM hockey romance and the first in the Lakeview Titans series. If you like rivals-to-lovers with a closeted control freak, an out-and-proud love interest who refuses to shrink, forced proximity in a scrappy minor-league locker room, and a found family with one menace of a best friend — this one's for you.

The Fractured Wing
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. And the arrival of a stranger from across the continent—one bound to her by something neither of them understands—threatens to unravel everything further. Because Torven Kaelor is not finished with her. And this time, the cost of stopping him will not be measured in blood alone. Perfect for fans of: 🖤 Morally gray heroes & obsessive devotion 🔥 Dark fantasy romance & escalating tension ⚔️ Found family pushed to the breaking point ✨ Praise kink, dominant MMC & emotional intimacy 🩸 Trauma, vengeance & dangerous loyalty ⚠️ This book contains heavier themes than Book 1, including graphic violence, torture, death, grief, trauma, and explicit intimate scenes between consenting adults. The Shackled Oath (Book 1) is currently available on Kindle Unlimited and for £0.99 on Amazon for readers wishing to catch up before release. [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]

Earned
by Lilly Manning
Elena Varela built her career on reading people. Adrian West is the first one who reads her back. As a crisis intelligence analyst newly recruited by the secretive Directorate, she's trained for difficult assignments. She isn't trained for Adrian West—controlled, severe, infuriatingly attractive, and convinced she has no business in his world of covert operations and lethal drawing rooms. Their first mission together should be straightforward. Infiltrate an elite private auction at an English country estate, and pose as Mr. and Mrs. Blackwood. Locate a young woman believed to be under coercion before she disappears into a network of stolen art, forged provenance, and powerful people who prefer their crimes wrapped in silk and champagne. But covers have a way of becoming complicated. In public, they stand close enough to convince a room full of watchers they belong together. In private, every correction, every touch, every near-miss turns the performance into something harder to dismiss. Adrian is all control and restraint—a man shaped by one failure he refuses to repeat. Elena is the one variable he can't manage, and the one woman he can't seem to keep at a safe distance. When the mission moves from the estate to a luxury yacht on the Thames, the line between performance and desire finally breaks. To save the woman they came for, they'll have to trust each other with more than the operation. By the time the cover falls, neither of them will be able to pretend it was ever only a lie. EARNED is a slow-burn romantic suspense novella featuring fake marriage, forced proximity, and an enemies-to-lovers dynamic set against the backdrop of London's most dangerous social circles. Book I of The Alias Series. [Read More]

Carve Me Free: A Steamy Enemies‑to‑Lovers, Forbidden Ski Romance
by Mara j. Ova
She is ice and scandal. He is speed and sin. When they meet, they turn heat into a weapon they can’t stop using. But can that last? Having spent her life as a decoration for her scandalously rich father, Élise Moreau finds her rebellion in a reckless downhill racer. Escaping an Olympic gala, she takes him up on his offer to be free and wild in his arms. One reckless Olympic night. No names. Just escape, freedom, and the kind of sex that brands itself into your bones. Nico Reiner is the golden, reckless Super-G talent of Austria, hurling himself down the ice like he’s furious at the mountain and flirting his way through camera crews and fan girls. He’s used to casual hook-ups, easy worship, and being the wildest thing in any room—until one perfectly polished princess looks at him like he’s beneath her, then kisses him like she wants to burn her whole life down. They were not supposed to meet again. But months later, Austria’s new speed hero locks eyes with his mystery girl at a World Cup sponsor party—and finds out the wild stranger from his bed is the Moreau heiress whose disgraced dynasty now quietly owns his skis. What starts as a filthy, anonymous rebellion turns into a season-long obsession they can’t tame. As the stakes climb, they learn lust is easy; love is brutal. When crashes threaten careers, tabloids circle like vultures, and her father moves in for the kill, Nico and Élise have to face something far scarier than breaking rules: sacrifice, letting go of each ot [Read More]
