OPEN EVENTS

 

 

Centuries ago, I chose duty over love. Now fate has dragged me back to the one man I swore I could never give my heart to.

My sisters and I are chasing a case of missing witches when everything shatters. One of my Valkyries turns up dead, her body marked with forbidden blood magic. The trail leads me to Briar Glen, where Talon Steele, the wolf alpha of a powerful, magical shifter clan, waits for me.

Our bond isn’t a choice. It’s a duty written in blood, magic, and fate. It’s the key to saving both our clans from unraveling. With shifters spiraling into feral madness and an ancient enemy forging an army of corrupted beasts, only our joined strength can stop him.

Talon needs me to stand at his side. I swore I would.

But Talon doesn’t just want my power or the bond. He wants all of me—heart, soul, and every part I’ve kept hidden behind walls I built the day I watched my mother die, betrayed by the man she loved. I promised myself I’d never make her mistake. I vowed to myself that love wasn’t worth the fall.

Yet every moment I spend with Talon threatens to break me open. Fighting at his side, feeling his fire in every bond-thread that ties us, I know I can’t keep him at arm’s length forever. The closer we come to stopping Balder and his monstrous army, the harder it becomes to protect the one thing I swore I’d never give away.

Because saving the world might cost me my heart, and Talon will never settle for duty alone.

I’m not a good person. But I don’t deserve this.

It was just a bit of fun. Catfishing men on the internet, tricking them into sending me money, gifts.

Then I messed up. I pretended I was her.

Catharina Montgomery. Third richest woman in the world, heir to a fortune with more zeroes than my brain can even comprehend.

That’s how the world knows her. But I just know her as… Mommy.

She tricked me. Made me believe I’d hit the jackpot. An all expenses paid vacation to a tropical island where I’d be pampered and waited on hand and foot by hot cabana boys every minute of every day.

But the island is a lie. Instead of spending my days in the lap of luxury, I spend them in a nursery, subjected to the twisted, depraved desires of a woman I never should have crossed.

Because on an island full of dark and depraved men, my Mommy is the darkest of them all.

Taryn

I thought I was safe. That I knew what I was doing.

 

But I was wrong, and when everything goes sideways, I dial the first number I think of.
 

The one that belongs to my stepfather. The only man who’s ever made me feel protected.
 

Years ago, my mother and I blew into his life like a whirlwind. I was ripped away just as abruptly, and I wouldn’t blame him for turning away from me now.

 

He doesn’t. He comes when I need him, just like he always did. And for a moment, I can breathe.
 

But when he arrives, my stepbrother at his side, I realize that things have changed.

 

The man in the truck isn’t the warm, charming man I used to know. And my stepbrother isn’t the giggling friend I once relied on. My stepfather’s eyes are heated. Brooding. And my stepbrother’s mouth is turned down in a frown of confusion.

 

I’m not the gangly teenager they used to know.
 

And they aren’t the safe haven I thought they were.

 

Still, I ask for safety, and for a few weeks, I have it. I find myself back in their house, my hands starting to remember the way to chop wood and feed horses. I begin to fit myself into their world again.
 

And then it all goes wrong. I’m caught in an avalanche and face death in those mountains, and when I survive it, everything changes. The men who were shutting me out have changed, and I can actually see them.
 

One is tough and unyielding, full of unspeakable desires.

 

The other has a tender soul, and a heart that melts in my hands.

 

And suddenly, Gunner and Gabe become more than the stepfather and stepbrother I thought I’d left behind.

 

They become everything. 
 

If I’m brave enough to reach out and take them.

 

 

Official synopsis coming soon!

 

 

She’s the one thing I never saw coming, and now I can’t imagine leading without her.

Holly
I wasn’t looking for love—just a fresh start.
A quiet life. A place to finally breathe again.
But then I meet him.
Camden is everything I shouldn’t want—stoic, serious, and far too intense.
He’s also the Alpha of his pack, with the weight of the world on his shoulders.
I should keep my distance.
But when he looks at me like I’m his, it’s impossible to remember why I ever thought I could resist.
He calls me his mate, says fate brought us together, and no matter how hard he tries to pretend otherwise, I can see it in his eyes.
I’m already his weakness.

Camden
I built everything with one goal in mind—make my pack stronger.
No distractions. No slip-ups. No emotional ties.
Then she walked in.
Holly.
Sweet, soft-spoken… and mine.
The second I scent her, I know the truth: she’s my fated mate.
But she’s a complication I can’t afford.
Wanting her means risking everything I’ve built.
Loving her could make me vulnerable.
But staying away?
It might just break me.

 

 

She’s all rules and ledgers. He’s all grit and Stetsons. The only thing they agree on? They can’t stand each other.

Blair
I like my life in perfect order.
I go to work at the bank, home to my neat little house, and everything just the way it should be.
Then I meet Cole.
Rough edges. Infuriating smirk. A cowboy who doesn’t belong in my carefully balanced world.
But a mix-up at the bank and a little holiday magic throw us together, and suddenly, sparks are flying hotter than a crackling fire.
Now I can’t stop thinking about him, and I’m wondering if this Christmas, everything might change.

Cole
When I first met Blair, we got off on the wrong foot.
I thought that I could fix things with her, but it’s been months, and she seems determined to keep me at arm’s length.
Then the holiday festival is announced, and Blair is put in charge of the bank’s booth.
And she needs help.
When I find that out, I step up and offer her a hand.
Finally, my ice princess is starting to thaw, which is good, because I’m set on showing her that sometimes the best gifts aren’t wrapped under the tree.
They’re found standing right in front of you.

Her Cowboy Christmasis a small-town, enemies-to-lovers holiday romance filled with festive charm, steamy chemistry, and a cowboy who knows the second he sees her that she’s his forever.

 

 

 

Trust is a delicate, dangerous game. I've played it enough to know I don't care to play again.

All I need is my club. Life's easier this way. My brothers have my back, and I've got theirs. It's simple. Clean.

Until she crosses my path.

Stunningly beautiful, she's a walking contradiction. Soft yet strong. Light yet dark. Loving yet guarded. She has reasons to be wary, to protect herself as I do.

Our bond is undeniable. Neither of us can deny it. Doesn't mean I'm willing to give someone like her a chance to get closer than she already is.

 

 

I’ve been hiding my crush on Derek Lockwood as long as I’ve worked for him. But I’m not sure I can handle being his fake fiancée…

When my boss brings me back to his hometown in the Pocono Mountains at Christmastime to help him run the business remotely while he looks after his sick grandfather, I’m pretty sure I can keep it together.

After all, I’ve managed not to drool over the handsome single dad for the last three years. At least, not openly…

But the mountains bring out another side of my boss—a side with a manly appetite, a side that chops wood in tight jeans and a flannel shirt, a side that howls at the moon just to make me laugh…

And when the rugged widower asks me to wear his ring I’m basically swooning, even though it’s only a pretend engagement. I don’t love the idea of tricking his sweet grandpa, and everyone else in small town Angel Mountain, but I can never seem to say no to Derek Lockwood.

It’s only when his daughter shows up that I know I’m in real trouble. I’ve been Judi-Bloom Lockwood’s biggest fan since she came to Take-Your-Daughter-to-Work-Day when she was only ten. But Judi-Bloom is thirteen now, she goes by “J.B.”, and I’m pretty sure my favorite math whiz is figuring out that something doesn’t add up…

One Golden Ring is a clean & wholesome Christmas romance, perfect for anyone who loves a lighthearted holiday rom-com and a happily-ever-after!

 

 

 

 

 

She never forgot her first love. Her daughter just found him on a dating app.

 

One summer in New York City, Gillian Horton met Alex Garcia—the boy who made her laugh, dream, and fall head over heels. Then tragedy struck. Gillian returned home to raise her infant niece, and Alex went back to MIT. Their love story ended in silence.

 

Fourteen years later, Gillian has built a life in Willet Cove. Grace, the little girl she raised, is now a teenager who longs for a father. What Gillian doesn’t know is that Grace and her friends have secretly put her profile on a dating app. And the first match to appear nearly stops Grace’s heart—Alex Garcia, widowed billionaire and single father of two.

 

Seeing Alex again shakes Gillian to her core. His teenagers raise painful questions about whether he had a family the summer he loved her. But as Grace soon discovers, the truth is more complicated—and maybe more hopeful—than her mother believes.

 

Reuniting first love is never simple. With trust to rebuild, families to blend, and grief still tender, Gillian and Alex must find the courage to risk their hearts again. Because some dances are worth a second chance.

 

 

Declan Hayes has one rule: never let them see behind the mask.

As the Maple Creek Thunder’s intense and brooding center, Declan is known for shutting down plays and shutting out people. Off the ice, he keeps his head down, avoids the spotlight, and guards his past like a well-defended goal. But when the team lands a new media deal, he's suddenly the center of attention—and under the watchful eye of Elle Martin.

Elle’s assignment is simple: shadow the team, get the scoop, and help the fans fall in love with hockey’s most private players. She didn’t expect to be drawn to the one who refuses to open up. Declan’s gruff exterior hides something deeper, and when Elle uncovers a secret that could shake the entire franchise, she's faced with an impossible choice.

Publish the story that could make her career—or protect the man who's slowly claiming her heart.

As the pressure builds on and off the ice, Declan and Elle must decide if love is worth risking everything.

A spicy, emotional hockey romance with a guarded forward, a driven reporter, forbidden tension, and a secret that could ruin it all.

Enter Noel Kane—ex-Special Forces, Sigma International’s resident grump, and the bodyguard assigned to keep her safe.

But from the moment he lays eyes on Holly, with her sparkling eyes, lush curves, and stubborn determination to make Christmas magic happen, his iron control begins to crack. Protecting her isn’t just a job. It’s personal.

As danger closes in, sparks fly hotter than the crackling fire. Noel will do whatever it takes to shield Holly from harm.

But can he convince her that behind the badge and the bullets beats a heart that belongs only to her?

 

 

A Christmas demon. A sacred bounty. A painful truth.

When a demon with an unnatural hatred for tinsel and an insatiable thirst for revenge escapes the underworld, my friends and I are called in to hunt him down before he can wreak havoc. But as the bodies keep dropping in gruesome and ritualistic ways, it becomes clear that his arrival isn’t just a random jailbreak. Something or someone helped him cross into our world, and the deeper we dig, the more it feels like we’re being played.

When I think I can juggle the hunt and the chaos that comes with it, my son shows up for a visit. It’s supposed to be a chance to pretend, just for a little while, that I have a normal life. But the demon strikes too close to home, and in the aftermath, I am forced to confront not only the trauma of my past but the gaping wound left by the husband I lost.

Dark forces are at play, ones that don’t just want chaos but need it. And if we don’t figure out their true motives, the Christmas Village will become a massacre site.

Can we uncover our enemies’ true agenda before the streets run red with holiday cheer, or are we one holiday away from annihilation?

Just when Fiona, Violet, and Aislinn thought they'd earned a damn break, Artemis crashes their victory dinner with catastrophic news: Olympus is under attack, gods are dropping like flies, and—surprise!—only they can save divine butts from extinction.

Goodbye, overdue peaceful evening. Hello, next world-ending crisis.

Whisked away to Mount Olympus without so much as a toothbrush, the three magical misfits discover someone's treating gods like magical juice boxes—draining their divine essence and leaving them to fade into oblivion. And the culprit has been using Artemis's own lodge as their villain headquarters. Talk about a hostile takeover.

With their complementary abilities working overtime, the witchy wonder triplets will navigate godly politics (think high school drama but with lightning bolts), infiltrate secret training facilities for god-impersonators, and uncover a conspiracy led by Callisto—Artemis's scorned ex-companion with serious boundary issues and a flair for divine theft.

 

Their investigation takes them from Olympic chambers to sketchy Athens clubs offering "godly experiences" to mortals with more money than sense, and finally back to Cottlehill Wilds, where the Hellmouth is once again center stage for magical mayhem.

 

Between saving weakened deities, protecting their families, and figuring out what the hell a "divine ascension ritual" actually entails (spoiler alert: it's not a relaxing spa day), the Backside of Forty faces their most ridiculous challenge yet. Because nothing says "thanks for saving reality last week" like being drafted into a divine civil war.

 

At least no one's trying to steal their brains this time. Progress!

 

 

She never planned on selling herself. He never planned on buying her.

Sienna
I only agreed to be auctioned off because it was the fastest way to save my grandma’s house.
One dinner, one night of pretending, and I’ll finally have the money we need.
Easy.
At least it was supposed to be.
Until he raised his hand.
The grumpy, brooding mountain man with stormy eyes and a reputation as cold as the mountain winters.
Now I’m not just his for the night.
I’m his wife.
His fake wife.

Heath
I don’t want a wife. I don’t want love.
What I want is the inheritance my grandfather left me, and the only way to get it is to be married before Christmas.
When I see Sienna standing on that stage, all sunshine and fire, I know I’ve found my answer.
Bidding on her was instinct. Claiming her as mine was inevitable.
This was supposed to be business, a deal, but the longer she’s in my home, the harder it is to remember where the act ends.
And the more I know I’ll burn the world down before I ever let her go.

Merry needs a tow truck, and a warm place to wait, while the snow piles up outside.
Everything about her threatens to thaw the ice around my frozen heart.
