"Mark: Stay focused. Finish my game. Stay out of trouble. Those were the rules. I thought hanging around Derrick was harmless. Now I'm drowning in the fallout and Derrick holds my future in his hands. Then he gives me a way out. Date the hockey captain. Break his heart. Walk away.
I didn't commit the crime being pinned on me. Besides, the hockey golden boy would never look twice at someone like me. Hunter isn't what I expected. He's gentle, patient, and so disarmingly kind it terrifies me.
If I want to save myself and Hunter, I have one choice left. Stop Derrick or risk losing the only good thing that's ever been mine.
Hunter: Between caring for my best friend after an accident shattered our lives, juggling school, and keeping my spot on our college hockey team, I'm stretched too thin. After one fight, my friend gets arrested, and I'm stranded in his dorm hallway with nowhere to go. Then I meet Mark.
There's a spark between us that first night. And the closer we get, the clearer it becomes that Mark is keeping something from me. When the truth hits, it detonates everything I thought we were building toward.
So much for happily ever after.

"Rule #1 at the new job: don't touch the boss's daughter.
Or in this case, me—his granddaughter. With his dark eyes, tattooed arms, and shoulders for days, Michael Scarrone shouldn't be looking at me at all. And I definitely shouldn't be looking back.
The sad truth was, we couldn't be more wrong for each other. Him, a mechanic just out on parole. Me, an innocent student with her whole future ahead of her.
But somehow, I can't stay away. There's a secret lurking under Michael's rough exterior. He's a diamond in the rough I want to make shine.
Apparently opposites really do attract, right before they combust. I want to steal this bad boy's heart the moment we meet. But now it looks like he's already stolen mine.
Contains mature themes."
"Noah: Rich. Confident. Motivated. Or at least I was until my father kicked me out after catching me with a one-night stand. My life is going just great. But then, I'm offered a room to rent. It's a cute place, and the man who comes with it is sexier than I know how to handle. I am only a mere mortal. I try to resist, but no matter how much my best friend warns me, I can't stay away from my brand new tattooed sexy roommate. The spark between us can't be denied. I know he feels it too. My best friend says he's trouble, but that only makes me want him more. Because let's face it, I love trouble.
Jamie: Looking for a roommate after my best friend ditched me to move in with his stupid boyfriend is the last thing I want to do, but it's not like I can afford this place myself. Then I meet Noah. Our attraction is instant and offering him the room to rent is a bad idea, but I can't stop myself from word vomiting the first time we meet. The adorably sexy bookworm with an obsession for romance and inappropriate shirts starts to wedge himself under my skin. Noah knocks down every wall I've spent years building since tragedy struck me. My demons are hard to fight and when my past comes back to haunt me, I have a choice. Heal the splintered parts of my heart or fall back into my old ways and risk losing him forever.

"There are two sacred rules in the Montagalo household:
- Family comes first.
- Don't date my brother's teammates.
Of course I went and broke both . . .
It started with a little banter on a dating app. A teeny, tiny secret: flirty messages with Luca Babineaux, the sweet, charming—and stupidly attractive—forward on the Houston Baddies who makes sweat and bruises look so f'ing hot. One spark turns into a secret first date. A few kisses become way more.
Now I'm tangled in a full-blown secret romance and every time Gio walks into the room, I have a full-blown anxiety attack. Dating in secret? Thrilling. Lying to my brother? Exhausting.
Falling for Luca Babineaux obviously wasn't part of the game plan. It never is, is it? He wants to go public with our relationship. I'd rather not. Now I have to decide what matters more: keeping my promises to my dumb, overprotective brother . . . or choosing myself for once. All's fair in love and hockey. Right?"
"Rule #1: Don't fall for your client. Ryder: This shouldn't be that hard. As the resident playboy at Heartbreakers Anonymous, I’ll be your perfect wedding date, but I keep it strictly professional. And I'm straight, so it's not like I’m interested in Quinn, my first gay client.
Rule #2. Don't crash your client's other dates. No matter how nerdy and adorable Quinn is. No matter how much he could use the confidence boost. No matter how badly I want to see him again. But it's so damn hard to keep myself away.
Rule #3: Don't sleep over at Quinn's house. Whoops.
Rule #4: Don't crawl into his bed at night. Too late.
Rule #5: Don't kiss him, and discover you're not as straight as you think. Umm, about that . . .
Rule #6: Definitely don't sleep with him. So . . .
Rule #7: Whatever you do, don't fall in love. These are the rules I’m supposed to live by. But Quinn turns everything upside down. I swore off dating years ago, but he makes me yearn for something more. He doesn’t believe I want him. How can I convince him my feelings are real? Finding our happily ever after won’t be easy. Luckily, I’ve got a rule of my own: If you do fall in love with your client, don't ever let him go."
"NFL tight end Andrew McAdams isn't thrilled to be sidelined with an injury. He's even less thrilled about his legal troubles. Community service is the only thing standing between him and jail. It's not all bad news, though. He gets to work with Jesse Fox, who is as gorgeous as he is guarded. And there's no rule saying he can't do his hours and have a little fun. Right?
Wrong. Jesse may have to put up an athlete using his center as a 'get out of jail free' card, but that's where he draws the line. And who cares if Andrew is unexpectedly sweet and thoughtful? The people in Jesse's life think he should get a life outside of charity work and find love. And maybe he will. But it won't be with a playboy NFL player. Besides, anyone who dated someone like that would be thrust into the public eye. Jesse has worked hard to become someone else—someone better—and he's not about to dig up the past.
That's just not a game he's willing to play.
Too bad it's not in Andrew's nature to give up on something he wants. It may have started as simple attraction, but now it's much more than that. He doesn't just want Jesse for now . . . he wants Jesse for always.
And that's not a game he's willing to lose."
"I do not care what they think of me. I can't. It only matters that I play.
Jeremy Knox is no stranger to damage control, but his last season on an Exy court is off to a disastrous start. The relentless crusade against his newest teammate threatens the haven he and his friends have worked so hard to build. He promised Jean a fun senior year, but tragedy and ugly truths make every step forward an uphill fight.
Jean Moreau promised the USC Trojans a championship trophy, and he intends to deliver. Granted, it would be significantly easier if they'd slide off their high horses and throw a few elbows on the court. Their steadfast refusal to do things his way is nearly as aggravating as their unwanted affection, but maybe they're not the ones that need to change.
With so many ready to drag him down, how can he learn to fly?"
"I didn't mean to roast Gio Montagalo, goalie and crown jewel of The Houston Baddies hockey team. Honestly, I was screaming at the television in a sports bar like any self-respecting sports junkie! So when his sister sidles up on the stool beside me, laughing at my commentary, I figured I'd made a fan, too. What I didn't expect? For her brother—the guy I called 'a flashy ice peacock with the reflexes of a sloth'—to hear about it.
Next thing I know, Gio is in my DMs with a challenge: 'Hold up a sassy sign at my game and hit me with your best shot. Roast me in front of everyone.' For him, it's fun. For me, it's humiliating. But I did it. Glitter included. And because the universe thrives on chaos, the Baddies won. Now Gio thinks I'm his good luck charm, begging me to show up with more signs. He also wants to see me—off the ice. What does a hot, hockey hunk want with a bookish girlie like me?
I try to keep my distance. Mostly. Soon, Gio is showing up at my job for swoony kisses and trying to charm my dog—also named Gio—and failing because my dog hates him. I wonder if this whole 'lucky charm' thing has less to do with hockey and more to do with the overwhelming, undeniable pull I feel toward him. Or maybe it's fate's way of showing me that sometimes, the guy you roast on national television can be the one you accidentally fall for."
"A morally grey billionaire. His bride, the woman he'll do anything to protect. The steamy, emotional wedding romance you'll never forget.
Avery Ross and billionaire Dominic Baine have fought for their love through every secret, every scar, and every storm.
Now, as they stand on the edge of forever, about to be married in a few weeks' time, the world watches the couple who defied the odds to claim their forever.
But when their future is tested once more, can Nick and Avery protect the life—and the love—they've fought so hard to build?
As their long-awaited wedding draws near, old wounds and past sins resurface, and Avery and Nick must navigate the dangerous space between public expectations and private devotion. Every choice tests their bond. Every truth draws them closer—even as outside forces threaten to pull them apart.
For 100 Forevers, the intense new chapter in Lara Adrian's bestselling 100 series, proves that a love this deep doesn’t come easy—not when a dark billionaire's world is ruled by power, haunted by the past, and reshaped by the one woman he'd burn the world to protect.

"Felix Becker is trying to figure out where he belongs in New Jersey. After spending nearly a decade in Texas in a codependent, though platonic, relationship with his best friend, recent Stanley Cup winner Rowan Foley, it's time to move on. His new condo is fine, but things finally start to look up when he meets his cute neighbor, Will.
Will Knight's third book is destroying him. The final installment of his horror trilogy is past due, and he can't figure out how to end it. He's got family drama that is consuming him, and his mental health is as fragile as glass. His new neighbor, however, is the perfect distraction.
The thrum of Felix's anxiety quiets around Will, and it's not long before he's in a free fall for his novelist. But Will is harboring secrets, and Felix's genuine affection for him is more terrifying than his novels.

"Theo Lane finally found his place in the NHL. The beginning of his career had been a struggle, especially compared to Rowan Foley, generational talent and his ex not-quite-boyfriend. It took eight years from draft day, but Theo was finally on a team that respected him. The San Jose Serpents had a real chance that year. Everything was looking up.
Until Rowan signed a contract with the Serpents.
Rowan may be a 'generational talent,' but he was also on a shitty team. It was time to move on. He was wistful for the time he spent in junior playing with Theo, the boy his heart hadn't let go of just yet.
Rowan wasn't expecting Theo to come running back into his arms, but he hadn't expected the hostile welcome he got from him, either. Eight years was a long time, and Rowan was realizing he had made some mistakes.
Theo had resolved to keep their relationship 100% on the ice, where they played together like a dream. But the season was long, and there was a reason they had been so obsessed with each other when they had been Flint Jaguars back in junior. Rowan always worked hard on the ice, but can he work hard enough off of it to win Theo back?
Contains mature themes."
"Explore the Stories Behind the Legends
Naked, bloody, and screaming in pain - this is the Wolverine that faced readers in the story arc Weapon X. This was more than just the tale of how Wolverine got his adamantium skeleton and claws. Legendary creator Barry Windsor-Smith challenged fans’ expectations of super hero stories and created Marvel’s most brutal and beautiful comic.
In 1991, when Weapon X was first published, Wolverine was one of Marvel’s most popular super heroes. For Weapon X, creator Windsor-Smith reimagined the super hero origin story as a cyberpunk horror story. A shadowy organization abducts Wolverine in order to create “the ultimate killing machine,” and we are plunged into a story of basic, animalistic survival. As Wolverine endures more and more trauma, the lines between reality and consciousness disappear.
Illustrated with full-color art from this legendary storyline, Jim Rugg’s entry in the MARVEL AGE OF COMICS takes a deep-dive into one of Marvel’s most experimental and singular comics, and what many consider to be the definitive Wolverine story.
