The Beasts Bride

She was the daughter her family threw away. He was the monster the entire underworld feared. Betrayed by her sister, abandoned by her fiancé, and sacrificed by her own father, Winnie Genovese is forced to marry Vito Cleon—the ruthless Russian Pakhan known as The Beast. She expects a monster. A captor. A man who will demand her obedience. Instead, she finds a gentleman who remembers her when she can’t remember him, a husband who treats her like a queen, and a dangerous man who would rather earn her heart than command it. But her past isn’t finished with her. Johnathon Moretti may belong to her sister now, but his jealousy burns hotter than ever. And in a world where love is weakness and loyalty is everything, falling for the wrong man could cost Winnie far more than her freedom. He was supposed to be her prison. Instead, he might become her home. And the Beast? He’s already lost the one battle he never intended to fight: falling in love with his bride. 🥀

Cherry in the Bayou

In the Louisiana bayou, everybody knows Cherry. She’s the copper-haired, tattooed queen of CrawDaddies Lounge, with a wicked smile, a sharper tongue, and a stare that can make even the meanest biker fall in line. She’s got a loyal family, a bar full of people who’d bleed for her, and a handsome cowboy who calls himself her boyfriend. What she doesn’t have is any intention of revisiting the past. Then a six-foot-six stranger walks through the door. Long hair. Tattooed arms. A leather cut. Blue-gray eyes and enough attitude to make her curious. She doesn’t recognize him. Neither does he. Not at first. Because the last time Silas Alister Whitaker saw Cherry, she was a little girl with copper-red hair who followed him through the bayou and trusted him with her whole heart. He was her protector, her best friend, her Sas. Then he left without saying goodbye. Now, three nights at CrawDaddies will change everything. Sas recognizes the woman behind the bar before she recognizes the boy who broke her heart. And when Cherry finally realizes who he’s become, she’s left with years of unanswered questions, a boyfriend whose jealousy is growing by the day, and a man who once meant everything to her. Sam might be the cowboy holding her hand now. But Sas is the boy who knew her before the world ever did. And the bayou has a long memory. Some promises survive a lifetime. Some heartbreaks never heal. And some men come home only to discover that the woman they left behind is no longer theirs to lose.

Rack ‘Em Up

You’ve seen him before. He’s seen you too. Neither of you has ever had the courage to say anything—until tonight. A night of drinks, pool, and your best friend turns into something completely unexpected when his best friend reveals that he’s been crushing on you just as hard as you’ve been crushing on him. One invitation. One nervous approach. One game of pool. And suddenly, the guy you’ve been secretly noticing every time you walk into the bar is standing right in front of you. But getting what you want isn’t always as simple as winning the game.

The Siren’s Call

The sea has claimed countless sailors—but never one quite like Y/N. When a haunting song lures Y/N toward the edge of a doomed ship, they come face-to-face with Vespra, an ancient siren who has spent centuries dragging sailors beneath the waves. She should have killed Y/N. Instead, she lets them live. Now something impossible is growing between predator and prey, while darker forces beneath the sea begin to take notice. Because falling for a siren is dangerous. But being loved by one might be even worse.
