Cupid’s Demon…

Club Monstrum is a 20k word novella, set in the future where monsters are allowed to roam freely. This is a why-choose novella, so the female main character won’t choose between any of the three monsters. This book is a stand alone and doesn’t need to be read to read the other books in the series.

Love between a Nightmare and a Dream is forbidden. Impossible. Unthinkable.
But when a pair of creatures from the dueling realms of Dream and Nightmare cross paths in a sleeper’s room late one night, love just might be inevitable.

Luminous Dream is a woman with a mission: make two mortals fall in love so she can win a place among those who craft the kind of dreams that change lives. Precipitous Nightmare is a night terror with a plan: find a Dream to fall in love with, then dump her as soon as he turns real. Neither expected to find each other.

Now this lonely Nightmare and determined Dream have to decide exactly how much they’re willing to risk to defy their warring realms and find their way home to each other.

Precipitous Nightmare’s Valentine Dream is set in a world where the realms of Nightmare and Dream are ever at war – and the denizens of these realms are expected not to mingle. This character-driven fantasy romance blends unhinged monster romance with adorable relationship goals in a magical world where the lines between dreams and nightmares could be more ephemeral than anyone expected.

Her vampire is heating up the kitchen!

Wendy’s first visit to a supposedly gourmet restaurant in the sleepy little town of Fairhaven Falls did not go well – especially her interaction with the arrogant and annoyingly attractive restaurant owner – and she didn’t hesitate to tell her readers all about it. She has no intention of returning, but she never could resist a challenge.

Restaurant owner and vampire? It’s an odd combination given Damian’s very specific dietary requirements, but Midnight Manor means everything to him. He’s not about to let one snippy and surprisingly succulent food critic destroy everything he’s built, even if it means using his special gifts to convince her.

As a series of mysterious mishaps continue to plague the restaurant, Damian and Wendy are forced to work together to track down the culprit. But as the tension in the kitchen heats up, so does their attraction…

Each book in the Fairhaven Falls series can be read as a standalone romance. This sweet and steamy holiday tale is intended for mature readers.

Libby Ingersol loves Pine Ridge, but it’s lonely being the new girl in town. As another Valentine’s Day looms, single Libby is desperate to get out and mingle. When she tries the Pine Ridge club scene, things go wildly wrong.

Can a shy minotaur who wears his heart on his hoof make things go right and salvage Libby’s Valentine’s night?

But even the devil came from Heaven.

So it’s just my luck that he also happens to be my boss… Until he discovers that I’m a mole for the organization protesting his company. Suddenly, I find myself as the test bunny for his most potent product yet: Cupid’s Arrow. And my mate-to-be? Callum himself.

A woman’s desperate deal with a demon leads her down a dangerous path of illicit desires and deadly consequences.

ADORA

When I’m told that my sister’s terminal heart condition has left her with only a few short weeks left to live, I’m willing to do anything to save her – even if it means making a deal with a demon. Aviel is powerful and beguiling, with a magnetism that simultaneously frightens and compels me. His offer is simple – he would grant my sister the procedure that would save her life, but I would owe a debt, one that could cost me far more than I ever imagined – my freedom, my future, and my soul.

More and more, Aviel becomes an ever-present force in my life, winding his way into my heart and mind – no matter how much I resist. I can’t seem to stay away from him, and his presence in my life has become almost comforting. But, as my world slowly unravels, I recognize that Aviel may not be the hero he appears to be. There’s something about him, something that suggests he’s not just in this for the business. And now, as I find myself sinking deeper into his grasp, I’m starting to wonder whether I made a mistake. I fear that my deal with the devil will have far-reaching consequences beyond what I could have ever imagined.

AVIEL

Humans are so predictable. They’ll do anything for their own selfish ends, even if it means making a deal with a demon like me. Adora is no exception. She’s willing to risk everything for her dying sister, and I’m more than happy to take advantage of her desperation. But there’s something different about her, something that I can’t resist – her devotion, her fire, her ability to challenge me, and now she’s starting to get under my skin. But our connection runs deeper, and her fiery spirit sets off an indescribable craving within me. I can’t get her out of my head, and I don’t want to.

I can feel myself getting too attached, too involved. And that’s a problem. I can’t afford to let my impulses interfere with business. Adora is just a means to an end – a way to satisfy my own desires. But as the stakes get higher, I find myself questioning whether Adora is really just a pawn in my game. The line between fascination and obsession is growing thin, and I’m teetering dangerously close to the edge. I can feel my grip on the situation slipping, and I know I won’t be able to let her go.

Max:
I used to hunt the monsters that hunt us … that is until I lost everything. I hate the monsters. I hate the loneliness and heartache I live with every single day. But now there’s a monster made of starlight that is stalking me, watching me every night, protecting me. Why? I don’t need or want its help.
And why do I feel so drawn to it?

Vex:
I’ve never been fond of the dull human realm. I prefer the realm of monsters where there is magic everywhere for the taking … if you’re strong enough. But ever since the night I scented him, I can’t stay away. I’m drawn to the human every night. I watch. I yearn for the impossible. I protect.
Because the large male with the piercing blue eyes is mine.

Lucy has never been more alone in the world. Even after the ravening, she had at least had Robert. Settling in Galventry was supposed to be the start of a new life for them. No one had told her that her new life would one alone while Robert ditched her just days before the town’s Love Fest to hook up with the daughter of one of the preeminent families and at very least a decade younger. Broken hearted and largely rejected by the townspeople, destiny has left Lucy abandoned and alone, and in one rebellious act, at the mercy of a fearsome creature who, despite his monstrous appearance, tempts her like no other.

Destined to mate year after year during the full moon of the Lupercalia without hope of a family or love until he finds the female he can mate-tie, Gral has ventured into the human world for his hunt once more. With his lash he will prepare her and with his strength he prays to make one female his forever. He is a monster, one of the terrifying creatures that have begun to overrun the world since the Ravening, and yet he will teach his would-be mate the temptation and the pleasure of surrender to be had from the one being who just may be far less monstrous than he seems.
