"A grieving King, a lost island girl, and a love that changes them forever…
After losing her intended Mate, Artemis Brimwood, future King of Nestia, is bereft. Broken. Beyond consolation. There's simply no room in her heart for someone else—anyone else. Yet her mother's incessant pressure to wed and continue the Brimwood name leads Art to Aeryn Sweetwater, an island girl at heart who desires nothing more than her mother and her Alpha's approval.
But Art doesn't need a Mate—she has no use for one. So she concocts a mutually beneficial scheme with Aeryn: the omega will agree to bear her pups through artificial insemination, and they will lead separate, fulfilling lives. Everyone's happy.
But there's more to Aeryn than meets the eye, and day after day, Art falls deeper into the spell cast by bouncing curls, milky moonlit skin and a soft, submissive heart.
Just as balance is restored to Art's life, the past returns to hurt those she loves the most."
"I never saw this Christmas gift coming . . .
When my ex-wife lands in rehab, I get a surprise for the holidays. A seven-year-old girl who's got no place to go. I love my former stepdaughter like she's my own, but I have no idea how to give her everything she needs. In a holiday-crazed town like Christmas Falls, it seems inevitable I'll let her down.
Unless I finally let go of my pride and accept help from the new director of the Holiday Hope Foundation. Mason West is eager to lend support however he can. And when I let him, he goes above and beyond.
For Charlie's sake. Not mine. Even if I maybe, kind of, wish that it was for me.
I've never been into men before, but Mason is so sweet, so giving, so . . . perfectly sized to snuggle in against my holiday sweater. Maybe if I can figure out what all this means, I can gain more than a daughter for the holidays.
Maybe I can keep the gift I've always wanted most—a family of my own.

"Dr. Miles McCabe knows how to carry the weight of other people's suffering. As a crisis counselor, it's his job. But when his own past collides with a disturbing new case, he's forced onto the sidelines—his license under review, his every move scrutinized.
Rowan Ashcroft has built his reputation on silence. Former covert operative turned investigative podcaster, he's made a career out of exposing the hidden machinery of power. He doesn't trust easily, and he doesn't talk about the scars he carries.
A violent breach of patient confidentiality throws Miles and Rowan into the same fight. What begins as reluctant cooperation turns into something deeper: a partnership forged in danger, sharpened by attraction neither man expected.
But the closer they come to unraveling the truth, the higher the cost. Miles risks losing the profession that defines him. Rowan risks breaking the one rule that's kept him alive—never let anyone close enough to borrow his pain.
For both men, survival isn't just about exposing secrets. It's about learning how to trust, and deciding if love is worth the risk.
