The British Knight (The Royals Book 3)

By Louise Bay / Genre: Contemporary, Romance
The British Knight (The Royals Book 3)

When I’m offered the chance to leave New York to live in London for three months, I can’t pack my suitcase fast enough.

As soon as I touch down I’m obsessing over red telephone boxes, palaces and all the black cabs. But my favorite place is the tube. It’s wall-to-wall hot British men in suits.

When I’m offered a temporary job working for a barrister, I say, sign me up. On my first commute into work, it’s a total accident when I lose my balance and fall against the most handsome Brit alive. He’s as charming as James Bond and as suave as Mr. Darcy. I want to lick tea from his hard abs and listen to his accent all night long.

Turns out Mr. Handsome is my new boss. And his attitude isn’t as hot as his gorgeous face, broad shoulders and tight ass. He’s brooding, short-tempered and the most arrogant man I’ve ever met.

As we’re fighting, out of nowhere he kisses me. And I’m pretty sure I see fireworks over Big Ben and hear God Save the Queen. I wasn’t looking for the fairytale but I might have found my knight in shining armor.

The problem is he lives an ocean away.

Echoes of Silence: A Twisted Tales Novel (A Twisted Tales Duet Book 1)

By Indie Black / Genre: Mythology & Folk Tales, Literature & Fiction
Echoes of Silence: A Twisted Tales Novel (A Twisted Tales Duet Book 1)

A dull-eyed girl, broken and alone,
living in a world drenched in violence.
Her story begins with bloodline sins,
and no one to save her from the echoes of silence.

Wren
I haven’t spoken in four years. Not a scream, not a cry, not a whimper. I learned a long time ago—the punishment for speaking out against my tormentors isn’t a price I’m willing to pay.
Not again.

Forged in darkness and controlled in silence, I was caged for other’s twisted perversions. It wasn’t until four dark knights swooped in and sliced through the ropes binding me that I was finally free. They were supposed to be my saviors, but I was wrong. So. Incredibly. Wrong. The men who purchased me from my father are monsters—worse than those who haunt the shadows of my past.

At first, they whispered sweet promises of freedom, but now they say I’m theirs to keep. To own. I’m nothing more than a prisoner once again. Only this time, I might not need saving. Especially when their brand of darkness soothes the shattered pieces of my poisoned soul, and sets my desire for vengeance ablaze.

But when a misunderstanding tears them apart and Sarah is taken by the Brotherhood of Peace, can Sazar save her? And can Sarah help him by Healing the Brokenness inside?

Say Your Prayers

By Crystal Ash / Genre: Vampires, Romance
Say Your Prayers

Hell has taken over. And Earth’s last sanctuary doesn’t stand a chance.

A young woman with horns was the last person Father Stavros expected to see approaching his gate, begging for sanctuary. As a man of God, he learned to never turn away someone in need, especially after Hell’s Rising. But the sinful cravings that follow him and his fellow priests are a whole new obstacle. The horned woman is a succubus–aligned with the very evil they are the last stronghold against.

Which begs the question, why would a succubus seek refuge in a church?

Spat up from Hell, Deyva’s arrival has made the three priests of Bethel question everything from their faith, their integrity, and the very enemy they face. She may not actually be a monster, but a person truly in need of protection, in need of love, and that rattles the Fathers to their very foundations.

When Hell’s Kingdom sends the least likely adversary to Bethel’s gate to retrieve the wayward succubus, the priests are faced with a choice. Throw Deyva back to the pit that spat her out, and take a final stance against Hell with everything they’ve got. Or protect her, give in to their feelings, and risk losing the last grip on their faith.

Say your prayers. You’ll need them.

Billionaire’s Baby Contract (Hawthorne Brothers Book 1)

By Ashlee Pric / Genre: Romantic Comedy, Romance
Billionaire's Baby Contract (Hawthorne Brothers Book 1)

I shouldn’t have read my secretary’s diary,
In my defense, I didn’t know it WAS her diary at first.
But it made one thing clear…she wanted a baby,
And it just so happens—so did I.

The night I gave in,
The night I reached out and pulled her to me,
It wasn’t driven by my plan to ask her for a child,
It was two years of pure pent up desire.

For two years I’d watched shy, reserved Stella work for me,
She’s the only woman that I’ve let in my life,
The only woman who isn’t afraid to call me on my BS.
The only woman I want to be the mother of my child—but she deserves better.

I’ve spent my life taking over my father’s company,
I’m what some would call—married to my career.
But the fact is, I want my own heir to pass my business on to,
And she’s my perfect opportunity.

It’s simple:
No relationship obligations,
No financial obligations,
Just a baby.
Or so I thought…

Hiding my feelings for her and the diary confession I found is more than just a complication,
About the time I feel like I’ve completely shot myself in the foot,
I find out,
I’m not the only one hiding a secret.
