Science. Serial killers. Liberation. Alien planets. Trauma. Zen koans. Amorous vampires. Gay stuff. Tentacle beasts. In these five short stories (with ten full-page illustrations!), you'll find all this and more!
Horror is transformational. Overwhelm is the dissolution of the ego within the knowledge that what you are is a fleeting instant in an incomprehensibly vast universe. But will this understanding lead to destruction, or will it grant liberation? Open yourself to strange new worlds, and worlds eerily familiar in this debut anthology from author and illustrator Simon Shadows!
She’s a book nerd and a cat whisperer. He’s scarred and intimidating. Could the beautiful, quirky bookstore owner tame the beast in the detective?
♥Lily Young admitted the book boyfriends by the dozen in her Cat’s Cradle Bookstore had taken precedence over dating in real-life. She desired the real thing, an everlasting true love, a man holding her nightly, but the journey finding that guy wasn’t so easy. She’d kissed a few frogs along the way, and maybe her quirky sense of style chased a few away. One thing was for sure, the heroines in her romance novels made this falling in love thing seem easier than this.
When Detective Jace showed up in her life unexpectedly, would they put their pasts behind for a future together?
♥Women took one look at Jace Delfino, then looked away. The rich man's beastly look was perfect for work, but not for love. As a detective, he could intimidate the most hardened criminals and it hardened his heart as well. But when Lily entered the picture, all he wanted was for her to see how soft she made him feel inside.
When the bad guys got too close to Lily and her bookstore, he worked overtime to protect her. It was his job - but would she let him protect her for life?
This ♥billionaire, bad boy♥ story will surprise you with cute cats, a little humor, and steamy bits while delivering a Happy Ever After that satisfies. This standalone is also part of the interconnected Fated Loves series.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️What else makes this a five are the side characters that Zee brings to life and makes us care about. ~Reviewer

When Justine walked into my life, I swore an allegiance, an oath to protect her with everything I have. I slayed the devil and stole his crown. I now sit in his throne with my queen at my side.
But what happens when everything I’ve ever wanted is pulled out from beneath me?
I’ve risen from the ashes more than once, but this resurrection is by far the most dangerous. It threatens to take everything I’ve worked for—everything I deserve. But more than anything, it wants to destroy her: my Ahren.
I’ll never let that happen. I killed the man who raised me to save her, and this fool is about to suffer the same fate. I’ll protect what is mine. . . even it kills me.
You can hide from the devil, but he will always find you because dead men don’t tattle any tales.

Have you ever wanted something so bad, you’re willing to kill for it?
That’s what I felt the instant my eyes locked on Justine. I could practically taste her innocence on my tongue when she stood across from me, riling me up like the life in her eyes hadn’t been snuffed years ago. The thrill of the chase ran through my blood so fast, for the first time in years, I felt like I had a heart sitting in my chest. Its beat was weak and cold, but it was still thumping nonetheless.
It had literally only been a few hours since I had a woman’s warmth wrapped around my cock, but my hunger for Justine was uninhibited. Her scent was so intoxicating, my arrogance fed off it. I craved it like a drug, willing to give up everything to have it embedded in my skin—even my freedom.
They say revenge is a dish best served cold, but Vladimir isn’t going to be that lucky. I was maimed, beaten and tortured as he groomed me to be a natural born killer, and he is going to discover the hard way how precise his tactics were. Disrespecting my family is as punishable as disrespecting me. Justine is now my family, and I’ll spill the blood of a thousand men before I let anyone take her away from me.
This devil needs his rest, and Justine is the angel who can give it to me.
