Unfortunately, they're not sure what that one thing is.

But mercy for the man with none, he still can be released:
Light can lift his shadowed soul when beauty frees the beast.

When a young reporter named Beau accidentally stumbles into their midst, the staff thinks he might be the answer to the witch's riddle—if only they can convince him to stay.

Beau has his doubts when he’s asked to write the mysterious billionaire’s biography, but he can’t say no to the huge sum of money being offered. Resigned to his fate, Wolfram hates the idea of a stranger intruding in his life.

What neither man expects is the deep connection that forms between them. As they work together, Wolfram and Beau forge a passionate bond that threatens to boil over into something more.

Can Beau save a love he’s only just found, or is it too late for one man to set Wolfram free?

Notes:


BlurbA hundred and thirty years have passed since Arathiel last set foot in his home city. Isandor hasn’t changed—bickering merchant families still vie for power through eccentric shows of wealth—but he has. His family is long dead, a magical trap has dulled his senses, and he returns seeking a sense of belonging now long lost.

Arathiel hides in the Lower City, piecing together a new life among in a shelter dedicated to the homeless and the poor, befriending an uncommon trio: the Shelter’s rageful owner, Larryn, his dark elven friend Hasryan, and Cal the cheese-loving halfling. When Hasryan is accused of Isandor's most infamous assassination of the last decade, what little peace Arathiel has managed to find for himself is shattered. Hasryan is innocent… he thinks. In order to save him, Arathiel may have to shatter the shreds of home he’d managed to build for himself.

Arathiel could appeal to the Dathirii—a noble elven family who knew him before he disappeared—but he would have to stop hiding, and they have battles of their own to fight. The idealistic Lord Dathirii is waging a battle of honour and justice against the cruel Myrian Empire, objecting to their slavery, their magics, and inhumane treatment of their apprentices. One he could win, if only he could convince Isandor’s rulers to stop courting Myrian’s favours for profit.

In the ripples that follow Diel’s opposition, friendships shatter and alliances crumble. Arathiel, the Dathirii, and everyone in Isandor fights to preserve their homes, even if the struggle changes them irrevocably.

Notes:


BlurbDaniil LaChance grew up hard on the streets of the city-state of Allistair. A chance meeting with the shapeshifting Flame known as Knife changes everything when Knife takes Daniil as her apprentice. The promise of initiation as one of the sexual mystics of the goddess Pelin turns Daniil’s life from one of poverty and desperation to one of magic and mystery — and made possible the renewal of a love affair that has lasted many lifetimes.

But this opportunity has come in dark times. Mob violence and murder sparked by the resentment of an aggrieved merchant threaten to literally drown the Flame, extinguishing them from the face of Uos. The Emperor stands aside, allowing the killings to go on for his own political gain, leaving the few surviving Flame to provide for their own safety. Daniil and Knife stand alone in the face of a world spurred to genocidal violence, desperately seeking a way to insure the survival of their kind.

Knife has a plan, complex and risky, but there’s so much that she’s held back from her apprentice that Daniil doesn’t find it easy to trust his mentor. Daniil must make an impossible choice: Will he initiate as Flame and risk horrible death at the hands of the mob? Or will he go on hiding forever in miserable safety, trapped in an identity he has always known is not his true self? (M/M, F/F, M/F)

Length: 49 pages
Publisher:

Genre: Erotica / Poly / Contemporary / Twins /

Notes:


Blurb: Jaden Seville has done everything she could to try and get out of going to her coworker’s bachelorette party at the strip club. What woman would turn down a night with half naked men shaking their goods in their faces? Jaden isn’t a prude by any means; she just would rather spend her time at home, hiding behind her curtains, trying to catch a peek at her attractive twin neighbors. Too bad they are way out of her league and much younger than her. 

It’s no secret that Nate and Gabe Vallejo have a little crush on their neighbor, Jaden. The twins have tried their hardest to catch the attention of the sexy woman next door, who thinks they don’t see her watching them. She will get the surprise of her life when she discovers the minute she gets up on their stage in the club they work at, Jaden will get the ultimate strip tease of her life.

Nate and Gabe are going to make sure she knows just how much they want her after one seductive and hot dance.

Warning: If you’re looking for a sweet, flowers and dinner kind of romance book with a long courtship between three people… then this probably isn’t what you are looking for.

Rycard Serod's band of hunters is in dire straits. Deep in the borderlands overrun with plague, starvation, and the brutal Boa Visk armies, the hunters are out of money, out of food, and half a continent away from their winter camp, with storms close on their heels. Their only chance of survival is the bounty Rycard has accepted, the largest they've ever been offered. The downside—they'll be working for the Boa Visk. The other downside—they'll be hunting a dragon. Luckily, they don't have to kill the dragon. Just bring him back alive in all his fire-breathing, magic-wielding glory to the Boa Visk, who want him for their own dark purposes. But when Rycard finally has the dragon in his sights, he begins to question his decision. The dragon's not only a powerful beast, he can transform into a man—a beautiful, wise, honorable man, who makes Rycard's war-weary heart long for the balm of the dragon's touch.

Vorgon Graydalon will do anything to keep the humans of his valley safe, even if it means war with the Boa Visk. But the unexpected arrival of a band of hunters has endangered everything—his freedom, his people, and even his own kind, hidden away on their remote island far from the Boa Visk threat. He can't understand why Rycard, who claims to hunt monsters, would take Boa Visk gold to hunt him, the one creature who protects the humans. But when Rycard forces him to reveal his secret and shift into human form, Vorgon cannot refuse. There is too much at stake. And the way Rycard looks at him makes something wild and primitive awaken in Vorgon's heart. He's not sure if the dragon hunter will be the key to his salvation, or the key to his destruction, and that of all his kind. But after a night in the hunter's embrace, he's powerless to walk away...

BlurbLust and discovery, betrayal and secrets in the age of sail.

Oh yes, and pirates. Dirty, dirty pirates.

Travel back to the Golden Age of Piracy where bodices were ripped, timbers were shivered, and we all pretend, for the sake of naughty books, that hygiene was a great deal better than it was.

A new life beckons to Hannah Collingwood from the Colonies: an opportunity to leave behind the house she shared with her late husband and trade every other dismal, tired thing she knows for some measure of discovery, excitement. As soon as The Mourning Dove sails from Bristol with Hannah on it, her life can begin again.

Edmund Blackburn, notorious captain of The Devil's Luck, and his quartermaster Benjamin Till share everything. Responsibilities. Coin. A smirking contempt for the rule of law. An unexpected lady passenger aboard their ship proves no exception.

Now Hannah faces a new reality: a ship full of Very Bad Men. The sort who do Very Bad Things and expect to get away with it. She doesn't know what’s more terrifying: the scandalous demands they make, or the way she begins to counter their knavery with advances of her own.

And the secrets. The ugly, horrible secrets. Blackburn and Till have no idea who they're dealing with, and what the dark consequences might be for all three of them.

Eris Adderly transports you onto the decks of The Devil's Luck and into a dark, world of scoundrels and forbidden desires. Leave your inhibitions ashore: a bounty of pleasure awaits!

Publisher:

Genre: Romantic Elements? / Royalty / POW / Fantasy / Paranormal / 

Notes:


BlurbGreylock Bishop, youngest prince of Aranfeit, better known as Grey by those who matter, is decidedly unremarkable and more bored than ever. But, when—through poor luck and even poorer foresight—his homeland’s magical defenses finally fall at the hands of the more technologically inclined Morandians, Grey’s father entrusts him with an old crystal and, subsequently, the fate of the entire world. 

Having already lost the one person in all the world he ever truly loved, Erik Michaels—veteran soldier and current POW—has resigned himself to spending the rest of his life in solitary confinement. However, two years alone with nothing but his own dark music for company hasn't done Erik’s mood any favors. In fact, he might even be losing his mind. But, after being released from prison in exchange for assisting the Aranfei royals in their escape, Erik manages to pull himself mostly together just in time to end up at the center of a supernatural clash of powers like nothing he’s ever known. Or, at least, nothing he’d ever noticed before.

King Gregor of Morandia is over 60 years old and just now on the brink of realizing his true potential. At last, he will bring together a land divided for centuries, but at what cost? Following his acquisition of Muratan, Capitol of Aranfeit, Gregor discovers something locked away beneath the royal palace; something more old and powerful than even he himself can fathom, and far more than he’s capable of denying. What began as a petty struggle between nations has become a desperate crusade for all of humanity as Gregor finds himself riding shotgun to the Demon King, Garaak, who has a bone to pick with the frivolous and narcissistic human race. Meanwhile, the greater advantage seems to lie unnervingly with whoever manages to attain the allegiance of a strange young man with stranger magic who doesn’t even know his own name.

    1. Depends on my free time and the book length. There is twenty five here, I think, so perhaps a month or so to get through them if they are novels... unless I get distracted with something else that I found that looks interesting. :D
