King of Flames
Ana Calin - 2020
He’s focused, vicious and, worst of all, he’s after me.You see, I, Cerys Dark, am the only mage who can help him regain his full power. I’ve learned to hate him long before I met him, but I'll be damned, when he comes for me it’s not a hideous demon that I face. It’s a king riddled with shadow, magic and the promise of guilty pleasures. In exchange for my help he promises me freedom from the fated mates' bond that we share - a curse in its own right. His proximity entices me in all the wrong and yet oh-so-right ways, but staying under his control would eventually consume me. I have to resist this pull no matter what. On the other hand, releasing Xerxes Blazeborn into the worlds with full power means destroying them all. So here I am, faced with a choice—Do I save myself, or do I save the realms?

Savannah Rose - 2021
A stolen crown. A rejected mate. And a fight for survival…or revenge. The only child of the Starcrosses, and the last of the true royals, Delina was destined for greatness. The entire world talked about how many children she would bear. If the line would flourish through her or end with her. On the night of her first shift, people came from far and wide to see her transformation from woman to wolf. Her fated mate, who she’d dreamed of more nights than she could count, who’d stolen her first kiss and made butterflies dance in her stomach without end, would also be there. Ready to introduce his wolf to her wolf. Ready to take their now into a life of forever. But no one expected that the night of her first shift would also be the last night of her freedom. There’s no denying that Delina shifted into a beautiful wolf. But sometimes beauty is also a curse. Accompanying her pitch black fur was a line of silver and eyes so blue they shone in the darkness of the night. The elders had seen a wolf like that before. They’d known of its powers, too. Powers that were not of their world. Powers that needed to be destroyed. Even if it meant destroying the Princess in the process.

Alpha Theo (Six-Pack #2)
C.J. Primer - 2021
* This book is very different from book one- it's a slow burn, and it's a very bumpy ride. You've been warned! THEO: I'm next in line to be the alpha of my pack, but my father doesn't think I'm ready. In his eyes, I'll never be- he wants me to grow up, straighten up, to be someone I'm just... not. At least I've got the security squad in the meantime, and I'm taking on more responsibility by working with the squad's IT unit. I assumed working with a bunch of computer geeks would be boring as hell, but the new girl on the unit has me intrigued. I'm used to getting any girl I want, yet she's rebuffed all of my advances. She's a goody-goody, thinks she's too good for me- and hell, she probably is, but that won't stop me from trying to get in her pants. Underneath every good girl persona is a bad girl just dying to get out. Challenge accepted. BROOKE: All I wanted to do when I came to work for the IT unit at the security squad was keep my head down and do my job. I was doing it pretty well, too, until Theo got assigned as the liaison between the IT unit and squad leadership. I had a crush on him as a kid, but now that he's grown he's a foul-mouthed, womanizing hothead; a total alpha-hole. Other girls may fall for this good looks and his devil-may-care attitude, but I'm smarter than that. He's hanging around the IT unit to observe and report, but he's zeroed in on me for some reason; keeps trying to get under my skin. And just when I think I can escape him, fate delivers the cruelest twist yet. ~The Six-Pack Series is a collection of werewolf shifter romance novels.
