Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "May I be granted the privilege of knowing your name, my Lord? I am a fast learner, I promise." My words faded into a whisper when I felt the bulge underneath his pelt and my breath hitched in awareness. His arms banded around my waist at once and our hips met, his organ pushing at me from underneath. His touch felt familiar and I had to know for sure. "Why do you wish to know my name, Miatta?" "I want to be able to cry out the right name when you give me what we both want." *** With no other alternative left to her parents, Miatta, the Princess of the Black Fur Pack is given away to a rival Lycan Pack as a gift to end the ongoing lupine war between them. She loses her honour, and her title and is made a slave in the household of the demonic wolves, the Red Bone Pack. Desperate to find a way out of captivity, Miatta finds a friend and a mate in the most unexpected places. Lucas, the Potential Alpha of the Red Bone Pack disagrees with his tyrant father's methods of ruling but to prevent falling out of his favour, lives under his rules reluctantly. He saves a sharp-tongued Werewolf Princess from execution and soon meets an interesting challenge in her. Miatta is stubborn and Lucas is determined but when the two are paired by the matchmaking Moon Goddess, it is up to them to discover their paths together, not as Lord and slave but as equal mates.

Book excerpt: When Jessica flees the vicious werewolves for what she hopes will be the safety of House Ursa, she never expects anything more than a cold welcome. After all, she's spent years listening to her sister's mate preaching about the evil bear shifters. Now, one of those same bear shifters has been assigned as her guardian. Handsome, kind and utterly protective, she can't help but think it's an act. Klaue has never been sure quite how he will meet his mate but watching her crash into a tree while she's running from the wolves of House Canis is definitely not it. Now she's here, in his quarters, and he has no idea what to do. She's gorgeous and perfect in every way, but she also might be a spy sent to infiltrate their House. She can't be both that and his mate, but which one is it? The longer Jessica stays silent, the more the suspicion about her grows. Klaue is forced to fight for her safety from both within and without House Ursa, even as he tries to win the respect of his fellows. It's a fine line to walk, made all the worse because the secret Jessica is keeping could have terrible repercussions for wolf and bear shifter alike. Can he prove to her that he's not what she's been taught, and somehow earn her trust before it's too late?

Book excerpt: Cammie LOVE, TRUST, FATE, AND A HAPPY EVER AFTER? Yeah, not something this girl believes in. My life has shown me that love is just another thing that holds you down. That you need to be there for yourself and fate can screw you over faster than a used car salesman. I wouldn't have survived my mother and her many men if it wasn't for my best friend, Gage. The only person I have ever trusted and even that took a while to do. I was alone in the world, no family, just me and Gage, until they showed up. Turns out I have a twin brother and my dad's alive, well f*ck me, and they've brought along a guy who I can't seem to stay away from. Turns out their all shifters, werewolves, whatever you want to call them, and I'm one as well. This strange pull I'm having to this new mysterious hot guy? He's not only my mate, he's my fated mate, and that alone could kill us both. Yeah, whoever said love can conquer all can kiss my a** MASONA MATE, LOVE, BEING VULNERALBLE, Yeah, sorry not this guy. I've seen the destruction it can do and won't let it pull me down. I've seen my friends and family in my pack become mated and it's become their downfall. Hell, it's the reason I became Alpha so young. So, wanting a mate and all that love bullshit, yeah, no thank you, don't want it, don't need it. Then my best friend Cameron finds his twin sister, and my wolf doesn't give me a choice, no matter how hard I try to fight it. She pulls me in, we're too much alike, neither one of us want this, but can't stay away. She's from one pack and I'm from another, it would be perfect, then we find out we're fated. Well, there goes my theory that being mated will be my downfall, because now we're screwed. A fated mate means being vulnerable in a way I've never been, and it could kill us both. I guess whoever asked the question 'Is love worth dying for?' was a fated mate, thanks dude.

Book excerpt: From the New York Times bestselling author of Fatal Vision comes a shocking true account of murder, family secrets, and final justice now available for the first time as an e-book... One hot summer night in 1988, Bonnie Von Stein's second husband was murdered in their bed, Bonnie herself stabbed, beaten, and left for dead beside him. It looked like a brutal but tragically typical case: Von Stein was newly wealthy, and Bonnie's troubled son Chris, seemed like the obvious suspect. But Chris turned out to have an air-tight alibi and new leads suggested the crime could be much more complex. The trail led to Chris’s two strange new friends from college and a real-life enactment of a bizarre Dungeons and Dragons fantasy adventure, and it implicated Bonnie's teenage daughter as well. In Cruel Doubt, Joe McGinniss probes the dark heart of family life and small-town North Carolina society to uncover a fascinating and terrifying story that is at once a chilling murder mystery, a tense courtroom drama, and a heartbreaking account of a mother forced to doubt her own children.

How could they send me messages as if nothing had happened after betraying me?! Clenching my teeth, the more I thought about it, the more ironic those two messages seemed. One from my chosen mate, my fiancé, and the other from my closest friend. How could they have sex on the day of my engagement? "Just a little while longer, and you will be engaged to your beloved Aurora. Aren't you excited?" Daisy asked Henry, panting as she spoke. Henry smiled, lifting one of her legs onto his shoulder and thrusting forcefully, causing Daisy to scream, "You know I've always loved you the most, Daisy." The thought of their conversation made me sick. I couldn't accept this, nor was I willing to let them off the hook. I recorded their scene on my phone and played it for all pack members at the engagement. Henry was filled with regret and agony, begging me to forgive him. But would he receive my forgiveness?

Ryan Donnelly of Earth, it might just be a fate worse than death. The union is meant to end a devastating war that has lasted for over a hundred and fifty years, but when the female bride intended for the fierce, sexy prince runs away, her handsome brother is substituted instead. Men are for mating as far as the Tygerian prince is concerned, but the colonel also happens to be Mikos's sworn enemy, not to mention being completely irritating.Ryan is horrified to learn that the Tygerians not only expect him to take the place of his sister, marry the Bloody Prince of Tygeria, and go to live with him on his mysterious planet, but they also expect him to undergo physical alteration to have the man's baby! And nobody is taking hell no for an answer. Ryan's being asked to turn his whole life upside down and the handsome Tygerian gets under his skin like nobody else. But with the fate of the universe at stake, how can he say no? Can the two enemies put aside their differences and focus on making love and not war-not to mention a baby? As a powerful love struggles to take root, can they learn to trust each other and stand together against the forces that are trying to tear them apart?

As Alpha of the Central Pack, I know we are the weakest link in the alliance, but I will stop at nothing to prove our worth and rebuild from our shameful and brutal past.
