Bound by Shadow and Moonlight is a dark romantic fantasy about exile, forbidden magic, and a love born from survival.
When Princess Elara Thorneleaf touches the forbidden Nightroot Tree, she is cursed and stripped of her elven powers, transformed into a feared “Shadow Elf.” Branded an abomination by her own people, Elara is cast out and hunted as the shadow inside her slowly consumes her body and identity.

Her escape leads her beyond the borders of her homeland, where she encounters Cael Raithe, a renegade wizard exiled by the Wizard Guild for practicing forbidden shadow magic. Cael discovers that his unstable spells can temporarily suppress Elara’s curse, while her ancient elven blood stabilizes his volatile power. Bound by necessity, they form a dangerous pact and set out to find the legendary Moonlight Crystal—the only relic said to lift her curse.

Their journey takes them through treacherous swamps, ruined temples, and frozen mountain passes, pursued by elven hunters, Guild inquisitors, and dark wizards who covet Elara’s cursed power. As danger closes in, their fragile alliance deepens into forbidden love, forcing them to confront the truth behind her curse and choose between the worlds that rejected them—or a future forged together in shadow and moonlight.

She's just human or so she thinks. She has no idea werewolves exists until one day she attends her best friends birthday and everything changes.

A kingdom cursed. A dangerous pact. One impossible choice.
Mira Ashworth doesn't steal from princes on purpose. She steals from whoever's cargo pays best — and on the night she boards the wrong ship in the middle of a storm, that happens to be Kael Vaunt: exiled heir to the Ashfall throne, cursed by his own cousin to turn slowly, agonizingly to stone.
She wants nothing to do with royal politics. She wants her brother's crushing debt paid off, and to disappear back into the smuggler's life she knows. Kael offers her exactly that; in exchange for one thing: her knowledge of the only waters that can get him home alive.
But home means a cousin who stole his crown and left him for dead. It means an oath-bond neither of them can undo once it's sealed; blood, vow, and fate, tangled together whether they want it or not. And as the deadline of the next blood moon closes in, Mira finds herself risking far more than a debt: her freedom, her crew, and a heart she swore she'd never hand over to anyone let alone a dying prince with a knife-edge smile and a kingdom's worth of enemies.
The curse is only the beginning. The throne is only the start. And the bond between them may be the one bargain neither of them can survive breaking.

"Sophie Patterson. Don't you dare walk away from me." Logan's menacing stare bore at me. I suddenly didn't feel drunk anymore. I sobered up quickly.

"What, Logan? You're gonna tell me that you suddenly love me again? That you're here to sweep me off my feet? Please! I didn't need you all this time, and I don't need you now." He clenched his jaw, fisting his hands.

"Enough. Stop being so damn stubborn. You know I do. I love you. I never stopped loving you, Sophie. It was always you."

I left my hometown hoping to never see him again. I left with his baby still inside of me.

Revealing that she can see through their glamours would be dangerous – humans would consider her mad, and the Others would hunt her for the risk to their secrecy that she presents.

When her best friend Paris talks her into taking a job at a men's club Lia is thrown into the Other world that she has always avoided as the club is owned by a Vampire, and werewolves are regular patrons.

As Lia's romance with alpha werewolf Raiden heats up, the vampires that frequent the club become aware of her powers, and her new roommate, Cael, reveals himself to be something more than an annoyingly superior warlock.

Is Lia the witch that she believes herself to be, or the last in a line of a terrible power with the ability to end the world as she knows it?"

"You wear her face, but you bleed differently. Tell me, pequeña mentirosa, who are you really?"
When Isabella Moreno identifies her twin sister Sofia's mutilated body in the San Isidro morgue, her world doesn't just shatter—it ignites.
Sofia wasn't supposed to be anywhere near the cartel underworld. She was the good twin—sweet, trusting, working as a trauma nurse, engaged to a respectable doctor. She was everything Isabella wasn't: innocent, hopeful, loved.
But someone put three bullets in Sofia's chest and dumped her body in the River Rojo like garbage.
The police call it gang violence. Case closed. Another statistic in a city that bleeds daily.
Isabella knows better.
She's spent five years as a DEA intelligence analyst, building cases against the very cartels that rule San Isidro. She's seen the patterns, knows the players, and recognizes the signature of a professional hit when she sees one. Sofia's murder wasn't random—it was an execution. And every trail of blood leads to one man:
Damián Flores, heir to the most powerful cartel in Mexico.
Devastatingly handsome, Princeton-educated, and colder than the blade he's rumored to wield personally, Damián took control of the Flores Cartel after his father's assassination three years ago. He's turned the organization into an empire—ruthless, efficient, untouchable. The DEA has tried for years to build a case against him and failed. He's too smart, too careful, too protected.
But Isabella has something the DEA doesn't: Sofia's face.
The twins were identical—same dark hair, same amber eyes, same delicate bone structure. When Isabella assumes Sofia's identity, no one questions it. Not Sofia's grieving fiancé. Not her hospital colleagues. And definitely not Damián Flores, who appears at Sofia's favorite café three days after the funeral with an expression that makes Isabella's blood run cold.

Trapped in a high-stakes game of domestic deception, Thalira must battle the growing, intense friction of a soul-mate bond she fights to reject, while navigating a venomous dragon court and a deadly web of imperial lies.

This was my 43rd time proposing to Isaac, and once again, he turned me down.
Then I spotted the black lace peeking out from his bag.

The genius said it without a hint of guilt—even had the nerve to say I was being unreasonable.
We argued, and I stormed out, only to end up in a brutal car accident."
Bleeding on the asphalt, I used my last bit of strength to call him.
His response was ice-cold:
"A crash just thirty minutes after you left? Jane, your act is getting pathetic."
The moment he hung up, something broke—and not just my leg.
Seven years of delusion shattered with it.
When I woke up, I accepted my childhood friend's proposal.

“I did not ask you to.” I retaliated. It was wrong of me to fall victim to his allure. It was purely Zeus’ fault. His wolf was nicer.
“You like it though.” His voice was low and throaty with a triumphant grin. Damn his ego! “You didn’t want me to stop before.”
Blood rushed to my face and I blushed in shame as he stared at me. I stretched for a pillow and sailed it at him. He caught it with a devious chuckle.

Riley

TEASER:
You want me, don’t you?” A simple question that warranted a simple answer.
“Should I have had you checked for a head injury?” he scoffed, a swift blow that knocked the wind out of my lungs and I realised I had been holding my breath. My lips parted, and my chest heaved, working overtime to replenish my body’s oxygen from those few moments of starvation.
Steeling my spine, I stepped forward, invading his space, oblivious to the eyes that were thrown our way. Or was I imagining that? Draven didn’t budge, a perfectly shaped brow elevated as he considered my movement with little interest. There wasn’t a single flicker of emotion to cross his features, not even that Godforsaken misleading smile made an appearance.
“Then you’ve no reason to threaten any man I may find interesting.” I breathed the words slowly, erotically.

The Koch family is the oldest family in the Blue Star Kingdom. As the new generation heir, Chad Koch has encountered many women—some attracted to his wealth, others to his looks, but none genuinely cared for him as a person. Consequently, Chad Koch has perpetually upheld a demeanor of aloofness towards the fairer sex.
Amidst a twist of fate, Daphne emerges as the savior of Chad Koch's venerable grandfather.
Thus unfolds the tale of emotional intricacies between a haughty scion of royalty and a humble maiden of the farmlands.

Five years, a hundred betrayals, and one altar too many.
When Crown Prince Dorian Ashveil abandons Mira Vayne at the altar for the last time — rushing to her stepsister Vivienne’s side instead of staying for their vows — Mira does the one thing no one sees coming. She calls the wedding off, walks away from everything she built for a man who never truly chose her, and goes home to honour the arranged binding her father set in motion years ago.
A binding that delivers her to Caelum Draveth. The Ashen Dragon. Lord of the Draveth Ranges and the most feared creature in the known realm.
Their union is sealed in ancient fire and old law. It is political and necessary. That is, until fate and a rising war decide otherwise.
Now with a prince determined to reclaim what he carelessly threw away, the shadow armies of the Vreth massing at the northern borders, and a conspiracy of treason and dark magic woven by her own blood, Mira must choose between her heart, her duty and her survival.
Some choices, once made in fire, cannot be undone.

The first thing you should know about me? I’m technically a witch. But if you ask my family, that means I’m supposed to be the perfect little spell-slinger: dutifully attend their weird rituals, work at the family business, marry some pre-approved magical dude, and crank out a few adorable witch babies to keep the bloodline alive. Spoiler alert: that’s not happening.

Instead, I’ve mastered the art of avoiding the magical world. My strategy? Hide behind my computer screens and steer clear of all the drama. It mostly works—until the office jerk, who also happens to be a mind reader, decides to nose his way into my carefully constructed peace. Then he turns up half-dead at work, and suddenly, I’m knee-deep in magical messes I never signed up for.

Now, the annoying mind-reading jackass is convinced his problems are my problems, missing bodies are piling up, and both our families are tangled in this supernatural disaster. All I wanted was to play video games, hang out with my cat, and pretend the magical world didn’t exist. Instead, I’m stuck playing amateur detective, dealing with meddling relatives, and navigating way too much forced time with a man who’s equal parts aggravating and…okay, maybe slightly intriguing.

This? This is why I don’t date.

After being forced out of an orphanage at eighteen, Rose's life changes overnight when a billionaire mistakes her for his missing fiancée and coerces her into becoming his paid wife. Trapped in a dangerous web of deception, she assumes another woman's identity, only to become the target of powerful enemies. As shocking secrets about her past, a hidden twin, and a criminal family come to light, Rose finds herself torn between a possessive billionaire, his mysterious rival, and the childhood sweetheart she never forgot. To uncover the truth and survive, she must decide who to trust—and who deserves her heart.


"No!!!” I screamed as the stranger pushed me against the wall. “Oh no! Please come to a stop! This was a mistake!" But the more I attempted to get out of his grasp, the tighter it became. I had no idea why he was so angry with me; his eyes were burning with fire.
He growled behind my ears, "I warned you. No one can escape my realm, not even the most precious woman like you." He began kissing me hard, punishing me by ripping off my clothes. "Lily, did you hear me right?"
"I am not Lily!! I'm Rose!” Tears streamed down my cheeks as I screamed my name, trembling.
Yes. Rose was the only name I knew; my frail identity was established in the isolation of the orphanage. Childhood was a jumble of hurt and abandonment, so I clung to memories of William, my light of love and hope. But now, faced with the wrath of a stranger who mistook me for another, survival in this harsh world appeared more difficult than ever.

I stared at the vampire on the catwalk. At Victor Krauss. At the thing that had just torn four of my packmates into abstract art.
At my wolf's idea of a fucking fated mate.
"Oh," I said. "Oh, fuck no."
Victor's smile widened.
"Hello to you too, little wolf."


Maya was the strongest warrior of the wolves, feared by her enemies and respected by her own kind.
Victor was a vampire who took pleasure in slaughtering both humans and werewolves, a monster whispered about in every pack.
Wolves and vampires had been mortal enemies since ancient times.
Whenever they met, there was only one rule: kill, or be killed.
Yet the first time Maya saw Victor, something was wrong.
Her usually calm wolf, Raven, suddenly grew restless, and in that heavy, wordless pull Maya understood the truth—Victor, the vampire she was born to kill, was her FATED MATE.

Freya has spent her life as an outcast—beaten, humiliated, and branded a disappointment. A servant in the house of the man who once called himself her father. But on the night of her eighteenth birthday, everything changes.

She awakens to a truth more dangerous than the chains that bound her. She is not just a disgraced wolf. She is something more—something both feared and hunted.

Prince Dorian Damon, ruthless heir to the throne, knows what she is.

She is his mate.

The one fate has bound to him in ways he never wanted. But to him, she is also a weapon—a pawn in the bloody war against the hunters. He takes her and keeps her not out of love, but control.

"You think I won’t reject you?" Dorian’s voice is low, edged with cruel amusement as he presses her against the cold stone wall of his chamber. "I will. The moment you become useless to me."

But there is another. Tiberius, the legendary hunter with emerald eyes that see too much and a touch that burns her differently, has searched for her his entire life. He was raised to despise wolves, to slaughter them without hesitation.

Yet when he looks at Freya, he does not see an enemy. He sees his mate.

Caught between two kings, two destinies, and two deadly temptations, Freya must decide who she truly is. A key to destruction, or a bridge to salvation? But what happens when the wolf prince refuses to let her go… and the hunter king refuses to let her fall?

A brutal prince. A vengeful hunter. A woman bound by fate. One will break her. One will save her. Or will she choose to save herself?

Twenty-one-year-old Maren Gracewood has spent her life believing she is an unwanted foster kid with an overactive imagination. Then her dreams become physical, leaving bruises, aching muscles, and memories of two dangerously compelling men named Alaric and Aldric. When her best friend Piper reveals herself as Pryssalyn, a sprite sent to protect her, and Maren learns the truth that she is the long-lost daughter of Spring’s King Eldros and Queen Vaelyra, and the powerful Verdant Crown current awakening inside her has drawn the attention of every predator in Elarion.

Pulled into a realm of living forests, rival courts, weaponized mirrors, political bargains, and monsters that feed on fear, Maren must learn to control her magic before Winter’s mirrorweaver network turns her into a doorway. At her side are Aldric, whose fierce devotion leaves no room for doubt, and Alaric, whose careful control begins to crack beneath a bond neither prince can deny.

As Summer’s Princess Lysandria, Autumn’s Therion, a calculating foreign prince, and traitors inside Spring’s own walls attempt to manipulate, isolate, or claim her, Maren refuses to become anyone’s symbol, weapon, or prize. To save her family, her bonded princes, and the realm that should have been hers all along, she must stop running, reclaim the crown written into her blood, and become powerful enough to close every path leading to her forever.

"Let it be known that your blood is mine," the Vampire Prince growled, his tongue tracing the wet heat of my pulse before his fangs scraped against my sensitive skin.

I thought being sent to the Mutants Academy was hell. I was wrong. It’s a playground of carnal hunger. Three dangerous monsters want to devour me.

Adrian, the Incubus, doesn't just invade my dreams; he fucks me in them. I wake up wet, aching, remembering the feel of his thick tail sliding between my thighs, rubbing against my clit while he whispers filthy promises. "My cock remembers you, Elly," he groans in my mind, "Your body was made to take every inch of me."

Then there's Ryan, the Vampire. He cornered me in the gym, pressing his hard erection against my stomach. His cold fingers slipped under my shirt, pinching my nipple until I gasped. "Your blood smells like sex," he hissed, his eyes dark with lust. "I want to drink you dry while I'm deep inside you."

And Aidan, the Werewolf? The tension between us is violent. In the lab, he pinned me against the table, his growl vibrating through my chest. I could feel the heat radiating from his crotch, the bulge in his jeans grinding against me as he whispered how much he hated me. But his scent—musk and raw power—made my panties soak through.

I’m trapped. A vampire who wants to bite me, an incubus who wants to break me, and a werewolf who wants to knot me. God help me, I want them all.

Alessia Moretti spent two years building a life no one could trace back to her father's empire. New name. New city. A future that finally felt like her own.
Then a stranger sits down beside her in a lecture hall and says five words that end all of it.
"You're using the wrong name."
He isn't there to drag her home. He's there for the notebook she stole the night she ran, the only thing her father would kill to bury and the only thing his own family needs to survive. What he doesn't expect is her. What she doesn't expect is him, or what he actually is.
Dario De Luca was raised to finish the job. He wasn't raised to fall for the girl his family promised him to before either of them had a say.

She was raised to survive that world. He was raised to run it. Together they might be the only two people alive who can burn down the lie both families were built on, if the people hunting them don't get there first.
