"A lonely human unlucky in love . . .
When all your friends are pairing up with the alien partners of their dreams, it's hard not to feel left behind. I'm as single as ever, working my boring desk job and spending most of my time alone.
So when I meet an intriguing alien who invites me back to his ship, I wonder if maybe it's finally my turn for love. Turns out, that drunken hookup ended up with me kidnapped by space pirates, and now I’m stuck on the other side of the galaxy. I should be worried about getting out of this alive, but once the shock wears off, all I can think about is my attraction to my alien captor. They flirt and tease me, but I know it means nothing. Why would someone so confident and capable ever be interested in an anxious mess like me?
A dashing alien pirate . . .
What should've been a simple job ended up with me and my crew fleeing for our lives. Someone obviously set us up, but in order to get to the bottom of things, we need a lot of credits. As if things weren’t bad enough, I've accidentally abducted a human.
Now we're stuck together until I get the funds needed to set things right. But each night cycle spent with this human by my side makes it harder to keep my distance. How do I keep him safe and return him home without falling for him—or ending up in a prison colony for the rest of my life?
Contains mature themes."
"Let me tell you the story of how I got stuck in a love triangle with the one man my father forbade from ever seeing me.
It all started two years ago when I was introduced to Rina Blum and Knox Rhodes. At the time, Rina and Knox were dating, but then she broke up with him to pursue her dreams.
Knox and I could've had something then, but fast forward to present day and I learned my father had more than a little something to do with keeping us apart. And I never would've been the wiser had Knox and I not run into each other at the airport as we both headed to London for fashion week.
Oh, and add in Rina, who also happened to be at London Fashion Week because things weren't complicated enough.
Basically, it was a tangled web that I wished I wasn't caught up in, but the longer I let things go on for, the worse it got. I didn't think I would find myself falling for Knox, but alas I was, and I wasn't ready to let him walk away. Again. So I, Bianca Morelli, did what any rational person in my situation would have done—defied my father and ended up in a love triangle.
I know what you're thinking, say it isn't so, but it is, and this is my story."
"PH24 This is my confession . . .
Christian Sands: Doorman at Gramercy Place on the Upper East Side
My first love died in her sleep, and I ask forgiveness every day from a God I struggle to believe in. I write poems in a basement, keep my failures and secrets to myself, and live a life that feels like a lie. A life I owe to a man I barely know.
Gibson Hayes is married, wealthy, powerful, and the man who gave me my job when I came to New York. He's the most generous of billionaires and the most mysterious of men.
When he wants to promote me from his doorman to his personal assistant, curiosity and loyalty tempt me to say yes. I don't expect to find a sudden, deep connection with a man old enough to be my father. As the mystery of him unravels, and he seeks to ease my pain, I become a willing victim of his own suffering. When being bad feels this good, it's hard to care about one more black mark on my soul, even if the price we'll pay for our sins will break us both.
Contains mature themes."
"Summon the sun. As heir to the Summer Court, I was born to wield sunlight like a weapon. But when my father dies, the sunstone—the source of my kingdom’s power—vanishes. To claim my throne, I must retrieve it and prove my worth.
Alone and desperate to save my crown, I enter the human realm…and end up rescuing two charming, infuriating thieves from the hangman’s noose.
Nikolas is a silver-tongued scoundrel with a crooked grin and a past he won’t talk about. Dain is his brooding, silent shadow with magic in his veins and wicked skill in his hands. They claim they can help me, but I'm not sure what they want in return.
Wanting them is reckless. Sleeping with them is a mistake I only intend to make once. But when we touch, my power stirs. And when we burn together, the sunstone beckons.
Now I’m deep in the human realm, my days spent hunting the stone and my nights tangled between two men I can’t afford to fall for. Because the only thing more dangerous than loving them… is trusting them. And when you play with fire long enough, something always turns to ash."
"Seize the tempest. I’ve spent my life doing just that—harnessing wind and lightning to protect the vulnerable. But I’ve never quite belonged. The son of an elven mother and human father, I straddle two realms: the elven lands where I’m shunned as an outsider, and the human world where I’m viewed as useful but suspect. Forbidden to take a wife or sire children, my service as a celibate knight has given me purpose.
But now, I’ve been summoned to dangerous territory.
When the lords of the Spring Court ask me to aid in their battle against the monsters that threaten both of our worlds, I answer the call—and step into a whirlwind of duty and desire. The politics of the Spring Court are as volatile as the storms that surround the kingdom. But my forbidden attraction to King Tanyl poses the most risk. As charming and gallant as I remember, he draws me like a parched man to water. And when I meet his alluring queen, I find myself entangled in a web of powerful magic I’m ill-prepared to resist.
Torn between piety and desire, I must fight a war on two fronts. As the monsters multiply and Tanyl’s crown is threatened by enemies from within, I’ll risk everything to help my friend and his wife. But as blood flows and betrayal comes from an unexpected source, I’m confronted with a bitter truth. I can keep my life, my vows, or my heart—but I can’t keep all three. And when the storm finally passes, I might end up losing everything."
"What if this is the worst idea?
I may be struggling as an artist in New York, but I'm a great doorman. Is it the easiest job in the city? Probably. And it gives my mind all the time it needs to wander. Sometimes to my current project or muse, but more often to the one who got away.
I was the one he used to reach for in the middle of the night when the nightmares came. My adopted brother, once not much more than a stranger, became my closest friend during one of the most difficult times of his life.
Now home from years overseas as a journalist, Fischer is back in his apartment on the Upper East Side where I man the door most evenings, adjusting to his life as a single dad. I've missed him, and at least that feeling is mutual.
The other feelings I have for Fischer aren't something we talk about or even acknowledge. No. He only rubs my back to help me sleep. We cuddle up to watch TV. We touch because he needs it, and I crave it. Then, with a single kiss eight years in the making, we unleash a love that could grind both our lives to dust."
"Beware the shadows. Ever since I was a child, my father taught me to fear the elven kingdom that borders our lands. A place of twilight and falling leaves, the Autumn Court is rumored to be beautiful and deadly. No one knows what kind of creatures live in the thick, undying forests. No one knows what haunts the shadows.
But now those shadows have a name. And they’ve come for me.
Captured by the King of Autumn’s cruel bodyguard, Rane Laruthian, I’m carried into the heart of the shadow realm and dumped at the feet of King Andrin himself. As mysterious and dangerous as the shadows he commands, Andrin accuses my father of stealing the heart of Autumn’s power. Forbidden to enter the human realm, Andrin can’t make my father answer for his crimes—so he’ll take his revenge on me.
Surrender is unthinkable. I’m not without power, and I’ll do whatever it takes to prove my father’s innocence and win my freedom. But I didn’t realize what kind of revenge my captors had in mind. They’ll collar and keep me, molding me into the perfect weapon. They plan to use me against my father…but not until they use me for their own purposes first.
Caught in a web of magic and vengeance, I have to play a dark and seductive game. But when you dwell in the shadows, you discover that nothing is ever as it seems. As the game grows more deadly, I’m forced to question everything—including where I place my trust. And as I grow closer to my captors, I have to wonder if I really want to escape at all."
"Drew Riley: Night Doorman of The Eastmoor on Park
I'm stuck in an uptown lobby while my dreams of making it as a model in New York hang by a single thread. Meanwhile, Olivier Arnaud lives his best life as a useless socialite, flaunting his wealth, his looks, and his privilege. His gaze taunts, and his nightly, condescending smirks burrow deep beneath my skin where I simmer with bitterness and hate.
The day he asks me to deliver his mail directly to his twelfth-floor penthouse, he makes it personal, and the thread snaps—violently. With my hand around his neck, I feel alive for the first time in months. Though my frustration may have found the outlet it craves, my body's response caused everything I thought I knew about myself to shift.
Faced with vastly different but equally uncertain futures, our baser needs align, turning our increasingly heated encounters into a reckoning—both sexual and shockingly emotional. I know I have to stop. The last thing I can afford to lose in this heartless town is one more piece of myself to a man who already has everything."
"Fifteen years as a protection agent and I've never—not once—been tempted to break the rules.
My reputation and professionalism are the reasons I'm about to secure the promotion of a lifetime. So the last person I need anywhere near me is Luke Beaumont, the very definition of temptation and the man I've just been ordered to protect at any cost.
Luke is everything I'm not. Charming and wealthy, messy and reckless. And he's made it his mission to make my job impossible. While my irritatingly impulsive client would rather ignore the dangers of old family secrets and new forbidden attractions, I know better.
If this job's taught me anything, it's that emotions are a complication, and complications lead to distraction. Though nothing can prepare me for the onslaught of emotion when Luke is kidnapped. I'm hit with the glaring truth: I'll risk it all to save him.
Even if that means losing everything.
Free Fall is a steamy, standalone M/M bodyguard romance filled with flirty banter, forced proximity, action-packed suspense, small-town secrets, and all the queer joy."
"Keep the cold. I’ve always understood my duty. As heir to the Winter Court, I must be ready to take my father’s place and keep the realm safe under a blanket of frost. But my father never taught me how to protect my people. That role has fallen to his best friend, Ronan, who agreed to serve as my guardian after my father grew ill. Charming and dangerous, Ronan hasn’t let illegitimacy or family tragedy stop his rise to power. A master of the elements, he’s a faithful ally.
Until my father dies.
Pushed from the throne, I run to the one place Ronan won’t venture. Crossing into the human lands will weaken my magic, but I need new allies. I find one in Sigurn Brighthelm, the dark-eyed rebel Prince of Nordlinga. Sigurn is no stranger to power. But as I discover too late, he’s no stranger to Ronan, either.
Now I’m caught between two men with conflicting desires. As battle lines are drawn and secrets are revealed, I’m determined to claim my crown. My freedom—and my kingdom—hang in the balance. But as passions heat up, I’m not sure the ice I’ve built around my heart can endure.
Because ice doesn’t always thaw. Sometimes, it shatters."

He’s a successful entrepreneur whose app, VERSTL, allows consumers and sex workers to form real – if temporary – connections. But Cole needs a fake boyfriend so he can project a more traditional image for a potential investor. And Teddy – shy, smart, and so much hotter than he knows – is perfect for the part.
Cole has two conditions: no kissing or falling in love. And in exchange for one week together, Teddy will get enough money to get back on his feet.
But breaking the rules is much more fun…
Perfect for fans of:
Fake dating"
"Betrayal. He was the deception waiting in the night; the truth I never saw coming. After a lifetime of manipulation, I finally learned the truth. I was his puppet—even if I never saw my strings. Even knowing how deep his betrayal runs, I can’t shake the undeniable connection between Gray and I—the way a single glance from him sets my soul on fire. We are not the same. We’re enemies, poised to battle for the future of the very thing I’d wanted to destroy. With the Covenant gone, the revenge I thought I wanted is no longer my priority. The witches that remain played no role in my aunt’s death, and the only person standing in the way of righting those wrongs is the very man determined to keep me in his bed. But the remaining members of the Coven will never forgive me for the role I played in their demise and subjugation, and the worst part of all is that I can’t even blame them for it. I’d been naïve, believing my own delusions of grandeur when destiny clearly had other plans for me—plans that had been set in motion centuries before my birth. But even that had been a lie, and now it is my duty to do everything in my power to undo it, to protect my Coven from my husband’s hatred—no matter the cost."
