"Honor Tierney just wants one night with the playboy.
One hot, steamy, meaningless hookup, and then she'll happily go back to reading her favorite books, studying to be an accountant, and writing for the campus-paper-nobody-reads. Too bad she ends up in the wrong bed, with the wrong brother . . . who gives her the hottest night of her life.
Archer O'Brien just wants to play ball.
Well that, and for his brothers to stop acting out, so he won't have to worry 24/7. As the oldest O'Brien and team captain, it's his duty to make sure they don't drink too much, party too much, or get in too much trouble. But when she walks into his bedroom—mistaking him for his brother—life throws him a curveball.
She's determined to guard her heart. He's not giving up.
And when Honor gets assigned to cover the Wolves baseball team, it's game on."
"The Empty City hides powerful secrets, and Ethan Hill is determined to uncover them.
Disaster has been averted—for now. Earth is still in danger, and the Integration marches ever onward. Yet Ethan's journey has found him stronger than ever, and his experiences in the loops have left him on the cusp of grasping skills that can disrupt the flow of time itself.
The Empty City looms ahead, holding within it answers to both the nature of Firmament and the purpose of Integration. His allies' sacrifices linger behind, driving him forward. And new forces are emerging, some eager for revenge, others vying for control of him and all that he represents.
They'll soon learn that Ethan is a force unto himself … and like any good force, he's left ripples in his wake, causing new allies to rise behind him.
Ethan Hill no longer fights alone, and the Integrators have no idea what's coming.
Book three of this action-packed LitRPG apocalypse progression fantasy seamlessly merging aspects from apocalyptic system LitRPG's like He Who Fights with Monsters and Primal Hunter, with time loop stories like Mother of Learning."
"She’s everything he wants… and the one woman he can’t have.
Maddie thought her spontaneous kiss with a gorgeous stranger at an exclusive club was just that—a momentary spark with a man she’d never see again.
But when she arrives at her new job the next Monday, she’s stunned to find that her mystery man is actually Ian Hastings, her new boss…and their chemistry is far from a one-time thing.
Ian is captivated by Maddie, the small-town single-mom who just became his assistant, but he’s determined to keep their relationship strictly professional.
Yet resisting her is harder than he imagined, and keeping his hands to himself soon becomes impossible when a familiar face from his past forces him to ask Maddie for an unexpected favor.
A fake engagement.
To deflect his ex’s advances—and avoid unwanted rumors at a high-profile summit—Ian suggests they pretend to be a couple. But it isn’t long before their staged romance blurs into real feelings and Maddie and Ian find themselves tangled in a game of longing, secrets, and unexpected passion.
But when old wounds and hidden truths threaten to break through their careful façade, will they be willing to risk everything to turn this fake relationship into a real one?
SAY YOU REMEMBER ME is a slow-burn romance with swoon-worthy tension, unforgettable first encounters, and a dash of scandal. It's book two in the Kings of Eden Falls series but can be read as a standalone."
"A coming doomsday and not nearly enough power to stop it. Yet. With Ethan Hill, time never runs out.
Ethan's gathered a base of power for himself, but he isn't the only one with access to the Interface. An attempt to find friends lost in time ends with him matching wits with a Trialgoer—one who's long since beaten her Trial and now controls all aspects of life in her perfect, crystalline city.
She-Who-Whispers is both controller and puppetmaster of everything that happens within the so-called perfect city of Isthanok. She hears everything that happens within her city, controls every action and reaction by her people. That perfection is threatened only by the city's few rebels … and now also by Ethan, who sees her perfectionism for what it really is. An extension of the Integrators and their control.
Whisper might have power on her side, but Ethan has time. Time, information, and allies both new and old. His dive into the Interface and the extent of what he can do is only just beginning.
He'll unravel the secrets of the Trials, and when he does, the Integrators themselves won't be able to stop what's coming.
Book two of this action-packed LitRPG apocalypse progression fantasy seamlessly merging aspects from apocalyptic system LitRPG's like He Who Fights with Monsters and Primal Hunter, with time loop stories like Mother of Learning."
"Humanity has always had a problem with the REVs. Now, all the fear and paranoia regarding these super men and women will come to a head.
REVs have been exiled from Earth, with the remaining few treated like criminals and required to wear armbands and tattoos, harkening back to another tragic time in the history of mankind. Zac Murphy and his REVs now live on the planet Crious, building a new homeworld of their own . . . if the humans will leave them alone.
But now the evil Seken race is heading for Earth, determined to destroy the planet as part of their black-and-white practice of war. Either you destroy them, or they will destroy you. There is no compromise, no surrender, no negotiated peace. And since the Seken civilization is thousands of years old, that means they have never lost a war.
Now, humanity once again looks to the REVs for protection against the alien threat. But the Seken, in their wisdom, have told the REVs they will not be harmed if they stay out of their conflict with Earth.
What will Zac and his REVs do? Will they let Earth stand alone against the savage Seken? Or will they once again come to the defense of the humans?"
"Every time he dies, Ethan gains a little more power.
Earth was chosen for Integration, but Ethan Hill knows from the second his Trial begins that the Integration is a lie. The beings giving Earth the 'honor' of access to their System Interface want something from Earth—he just doesn't know what.
Now he's trapped on an alien planet and lost in a time loop, fighting for strength and for his own humanity.
One thing's for sure: He'll die as many times as it takes to tear it all down.
Don't miss the start of this action-packed progression fantasy seamlessly merging aspects from apocalyptic LitRPGs like He Who Fights with Monsters and Time Loop stories like Mother of Learning."
"D.E.D. Exorcists is the latest Augmented Reality mobile game focused on capturing, collecting, and training teams of Digitally Energized Demons. For an ordinary college student like Henry, who has always loved monster-taming RPGs, it looks like the perfect game. At least, until he downloads it.
Now, the monsters are real.
Henry finds himself forcibly recruited into the very real D.E.D. Exorcists: a shadow organization capable of capturing, training, and subduing the real-life demons that are invading Earth. These creatures' powers and abilities are beyond Henry's wildest dreams, as he's yanked out of his mundane life and into the world of magic, monsters, and dark secrets.
In his new role as an Exorcist, Henry must use every ounce of his monster training know-how, garnered from a lifetime of gaming, to strengthen his D.E.D., and protect his city.
But his new life comes with a heavy cost. The Exorcists may not be all they seem. Danger lurks in the shadows all around him, and Henry quickly finds himself questioning who, and what, he can trust."
"A new Alien novel perfect for fans of Alien: Romulus, now available on Prime Video, Apple TV+, and Fandango at Home
After narrowly escaping a Xenomorph attack and crash landing on the wrong planet, former military man Chris Temple just wants a peaceful life with his daughters. He just needs to deal with the brewing civil war and a Xenomorph on the loose.
War will always find a man like you.
This Alien story begins where most end: with a xenomorph loose on a damaged spaceship hurtling through space. Once a highly decorated marine, Chris Temple, a recently widowed single father to two young daughters, Jane, 11, and Emma, 8, is onboard. Despite his particular set of skills, Chris doesn’t get involved in the fight with the alien, instead focusing on keeping his children safe as the ship comes in for a crash landing.
The family land safely on an idyllic outpost planet, where Chris is told that the ship has been destroyed beyond recognition and nothing could have survived the crash. That’s only the first lie. Chris and his daughters love their new life, but something doesn’t feel right. Chris is a paranoid type, but just because he’s paranoid, doesn’t mean he’s wrong.
There are nasty surprises in store as Chris investigates the web of lies and conspiracies. After leaving a ruined Earth, it seems Chris and his daughters have crash-landed on a planet on the verge of all-out civil war. Chris will have to call on the battle skills he never wanted to use again in order to protect his daughters, deal with violence-hungry marines, and battle the xenomorph that’s killing people regardless of which side of the civil war they’re on."
"He'd do anything to protect her...even if it means disappearing forever.
When my brother’s best friend took me under his wing after my family was killed, the last thing I expected was to fall for him.
He was older, more experienced—and to keep people from asking questions, he was also my fake stepbrother.
Catching feelings for the man who’d become my protector wasn’t supposed to happen.
Until it did.
And he fell for me too.
But I should have known better than to believe in fairytales. Because just six months after he proposed, Evan vanished into thin air.
Heartbroken and confused, it isn’t until a year later that I find a clue that brings me face to face with the man I once knew.
Only, he’s not the same man I fell in love with.
He’s cold. Powerful.
Dangerous.
And even though he knows me better than anyone, he acts as if we’re strangers.
Could the man I fell for be hiding under this new mask? Or did he die the day he disappeared?

"A BIOTECH RACE AGAINST TIME TO DEVELOP MILITARY-GRADE DRAGONS
Brilliant genetic engineer Noah Parker is pitted head-to-head against the founder of Build-a-Dragon to design custom dragons for the military.
Genetic engineer Noah Parker has at last landed the job he's long coveted: director of dragon design for the Build-A-Dragon Company. With a combination of genetic engineering and a cryptic device known as the Redwood Codex, he and his team can produce living, breathing dragons made-to-order. But sales of dragons have plummeted, and the Build-A-Dragon Company will have to find new revenue streams if it hopes to stay in business. A contract to develop dragons for the US military promises a much-needed lifeline. Yet the specs are more challenging than anything Noah has ever designed. Worse, he learns that a shadow company headed by former CEO Robert Greaves has stolen the dragon-making technology to make a competing bid. Noah's dragons will face off against those of his old adversary. It's a head-to-head design competition, with the ethical future of domesticated dragons hanging in the balance."
"If you had the chance to go through a portal for a chance at wealth, fame, and loot... would you do it?
Matthew's life takes a crazy turn when a simple holiday visit turns into a crazy adventure. Swapping his marketing desk for an unexpected inheritance—the bookstore left behind by his uncle—he's led to a hidden portal. This isn't just any portal; it leads to a realm. A new world of dungeons, quests, and game-like mechanics.
Matthew emerges on the other side to find himself not only in the realm of Dunnishire but also as a Royal Duke in the land of Inneshys. As he navigates courtly life, he inadvertently sets off ripples that threaten to disrupt the delicate balance in the new world.
Running the bookstore on Earth proves to be just the beginning of his trouble as he faces the reality of two worlds that try to control him. Dive into a story of intrigue, romance, and self-realization as Matthew takes a leap of faith, ready to reshape his destiny and master a game of two worlds.
The Royal Duke is a progression fantasy with grownups who act like grownups. They drink, they swear, they make bad jokes, and they fall in love. What's not in this book? Sex scenes. Graphic or otherwise. There are plenty of jokes and innuendo about it, however."
"When Maddie Grainger’s longtime boyfriend dumps her on TV for the entire world to see, she thinks she’s hit rock bottom. Until her parents announce that they’re spending the holidays with her ex’s family…and he’ll be bringing the woman he left her for. All Maddie wants for Christmas is to stick it to her cheating ex. But how? Enter Sebastian Slater, the NHL’s most infamous player. On a drunken night out in Vegas, Maddie asks the superstar athlete to pose as her new boyfriend. She’s kidding, mostly. But Seb shocks her by making a counter offer: he doesn’t want to date Maddie for the holidays…he wants to marry her. Show up at her ex’s cabin alone or with a surprise new hockey-playing husband? Maddie opts for the ultimate level-up. Because maybe, just maybe, revenge is a dish best served betrothed. Sparks fly and Christmas cheer is abundant in this festive marriage-of-convenience romcom. Season’s Schemings is a closed-door/fade-to-black romance that includes mild language, innuendo, and tons of sizzle without the spice."
