The Final Bet

One race. $100,000. One very bitter loser. The underground racing scene is full of fast cars, reckless decisions, and people who have absolutely no business encouraging each other. Between Grayson's cocky grin, Adrian's talent for causing trouble, and your best friend's questionable enthusiasm for chaos, there's never a dull night. But when your boyfriend, Jake, loses a high-stakes race to Grayson, his bruised ego gets the better of him. Unable to accept defeat, he throws a punch, demands a rematch, and decides money simply isn't enough to make things interesting. This time, he's putting something much more personal on the line. With rivalries brewing, loyalties being tested, and a whole lot of tension in the air, one thing is certain: **Some bets are a lot more dangerous than others.**

Where You Bloom

**A home isn't supposed to come with a set of rules for how to be loved.** In a world where hybrids are protected by law but rarely treated as equals, Evergreen Hybrid Sanctuary is one of the few places trying to make a difference. When Dean Callahan, a tattooed, intimidating-looking florist, walks through its doors looking to adopt, he isn't searching for a perfectly obedient companion. He's hoping to give someone a safe place to belong. Between a stubborn raccoon hybrid, a few overly invested sanctuary employees, unexpected friendships, and a whole lot of flowers, life is about to get a little more complicated. But a home is more than four walls, and trust isn't something that can be demanded. **Sometimes, the best things bloom where they're given room to grow.**

Somewhere I Belong

In a world where hybrids are often treated more like pets than people, finding a place to belong isn't always easy. After years of failed adoptions and being returned whenever she didn't meet someone else's expectations, Raven Everly has learned not to get her hopes up. Aurora Ridge, a rundown adoption facility, has become the closest thing she has to a home. At least she has Wren and Cedar, her two closest friends, to make the days a little less lonely. Then Griffin Briggs walks through the doors. A gruff, tattooed mechanic with a soft spot for animals, a spoiled little dachshund, and more patience than his appearance suggests, Griffin isn't looking for perfection. He's looking for someone to welcome into his life. But after a lifetime of being wanted for all the wrong reasons, can Raven believe that someone might finally want her just as she is? Sometimes, finding a home starts with someone choosing to stay.
