I thought I’d lost my fated mate until he shows up years later. Only with no memory of me. Or us.

As Beta of the Aspen Pack, I was forced to watch our former Alpha turn to dark magic and destroy the bonds of our people.

I nearly died trying to save us, but I broke the biggest taboo: I told the others that cat shifters existed and almost lost everything in return.

Now we have a new Alpha, a new future, and a dangerous and mysterious enemy threatening our stable balance. And a new Tracker.

The man who looks like my dead mate.

Etched in Honor (Aspen Pack Book 1) by Carrie Ann Ryan- $.99 for a limited time.

Amazon

The Chosen Bride is a fantasy romance with a strong female lead, an arrogant prince and a mysterious priest. Why choose, enemies to lovers, friends to lovers, explicit. If you enjoyed Shadow and Bone, you’ll love The Chosen Bride. What people are saying:

”LOVED it! All the characters stole my heart almost immediately.”

“I do not think I read something like that ever but in a good way. I finished it in a day”

“I read it in 3 days. I could not put it down. I only stopped because my battery died”

“Wow I just can’t think of the right words it was just an amazing read. My first five star read of 2024”When you’ve been blessed by an Elemental God, you get picked or you die.

When Elyn is unexpectedly chosen as an acolyte of the God of Darkness, her entire world is turned upside down. Forced to leave her home and family behind, she is transported to the imperial city along with Zinnia, an optimistic acolyte of Water, and the haughty Nirme, blessed by the powerful God of Fire. According to tradition, the three women must be presented as potential brides to Prince Ja’al, the last unmarried member of the imperial family. Both attracted and infuriated by the resplendent but arrogant prince, Elin struggles to come to terms with her likely demise. The imperial family always favouring acolytes of Fire, the odds are against Zinnia and Nirme, especially since those not chosen by the prince face ritual sacrifice.

Determined to fight for her life and save her gentle new friend Zinnia, Elyn draws on her grit, wit, and problem solving skills to formulate an escape. But their enigmatic escort, the High Priest, also marked by Darkness, may hold secrets that could offer another way out.

Forced into an impossible choice between resignation and rebellion, Elyn must decide just how far she is willing to go to beat the odds stacked against a darkness-touched tribal woman in the lethal games of imperial court. Will cleverness and audacity be enough to change her fate? Or does bowing to destiny offer the only hope of survival?

The Chosen Bride: When You’ve Been Blessed by an Elemental God, You Get Picked or You Die (The Elemental Bride Book 1) by S.A. Monroe- $2.99 for a limited time.

A Taste of Honey is the Hugo, Nebula, World Fantasy, Theodore Sturgeon, and Locus finalist novella that N. K. Jemisin calls “a love story as painful as it is beautiful and complex”. Find out why Wired named it one of the 20 Best Books of the Decade!

Long after the Towers left the world but before the dragons came to Daluça, the emperor brought his delegation of gods and diplomats to Olorum. As the royalty negotiates over trade routes and public services, the divinity seeks arcane assistance among the local gods.

Aqib bgm Sadiqi, fourth-cousin to the royal family and son of the Master of Beasts, has more mortal and pressing concerns. His heart has been captured for the first time by a handsome Daluçan soldier named Lucrio. In defiance of Saintly Canon, gossiping servants, and the furious disapproval of his father and brother, Aqib finds himself swept up in a whirlwind gay romance. But neither Aqib nor Lucrio know whether their love can survive all the hardships the world has to throw at them.


A Taste of Honey by Kai Ashante Wilson $1.99 for a limited time.

The first in the Sequels series from the New York Times bestselling author of the Westmoreland series—who “is in a class by herself” (USA TODAY)—follows a young woman who travels across the ocean to claim her rightful inheritance, only to encounter a passionate and unforgettable romance.

Victoria Seaton, a free-spirited American beauty left suddenly orphaned, is determined to lay claim to her long-lost heritage in Great Britain. When she arrives at Wakefield, the sumptuous estate of her distant cousin Lord Jason Fielding, she is overwhelmed by its astounding elegance. She is also bewildered by Jason—his arrogance, panther-like grace, and hidden depths.

Unable to resist her spitfire charm, Jason is enraptured by Victoria and is determined to have her. Wed in desire, they are enfolded in a fierce, consuming joy, free at last from the past’s cruel grasp. Then, in a moment of blinding anguish, Victoria discovers the shocking treachery that lays at the heart of their love. Is it too much for their relationship or will their love last once and always?

Once and Always (The Sequels series Book 1) by Judith McNaught – $1.99 for a limited time.

A charming new LGBTQIA+ romcom from the bestselling author of BOYFRIEND MATERIAL.

Audrey Lane is perfectly fine. Really. So what if she left her high-powered job as a Very Important Journalist—and her even higher-powered long-term girlfriend—to live a quiet life as a reporter for the second-biggest newspaper in Shropshire? And so what if she keeps hearing that same higher-powered long-term now-ex-girlfriend in her head night and day, constantly judging just how small Audrey’s allowed her life to become?

She’s fine. She’s happy. She’s perfectly within her groove. Do not-in-their-groove people get weekday drunk and impulsively apply for the UK’s most beloved baking show?

All right, so maybe she’s not completely fine, but being on Bake Expectations is opening her world again in ways she never anticipated. First through fellow contestant Doris, whose personal story of queer love during WW2 captures Audrey’s heart, imagination and journalistic interest like nothing has in ages. Then through Jennifer Hallet, the most foul-tempered (and fouler-mouthed) producer, woman, and menace Audrey has ever met. Jennifer should be off-limits, but her fire lights something unexpected inside of Audrey, making her want to burn back a million times brighter. A million times hotter. A million times more herself than she’s been in a long, long time.

Audrey Lane Stirs the Pot (Winner Bakes All Book 3) by Alexis Hall- $1.99 for a limited time.
