No matter how wonderful Briar smells, and how important she feels, Hudson decides the best thing he can do for her is stay away. Suddenly, Briar, with her strange condition and boundless curiosity, turns the world Hudson’s spent centuries perfecting, upside down. But this pale, fragile girl has a spine of steel, and if Hudson won’t help her, she’ll find someone who will. By a luck, or fate, Briar meets Hudson’s brothers, Marcus, Valen, and Sylvain.

Unwittingly, Briar brings together these immortal brothers, and teaches them, eternity is too short to give up on hope. ***Briar is the first book in the Midnight's Crown series.

Fate's Fools
Ophelia Bell - 2018
What she wasn’t born with was a soul. It’s all she ever wanted, but the one thing she can never have. When Fate was handing out those precious things, it must have overlooked her, and a soul is required to unlock the dormant elemental powers within her. Not to mention the only thing that will ever give her a chance of finding the thing she truly desires: a soul mate. Not only has Fate forgotten her, it seems dead set on destroying the only part of her life that gives her purpose. An ancient bloodline of mixed-breed humans linked to Deva is being hunted by a pack of rogue fate hounds, and her link to the bloodline means she’s the only one who can save them. She doesn’t count on her quest taking her straight into the arms of a dragon, and she definitely isn’t prepared for the futile desire he incites within her, or the frustrating passion his ursa friend draws out of her. She shouldn’t want the pair so much, but when they both fall victim to the hounds, it may take nothing less than her love to save them. Warning: This series is a spinoff of Ophelia Bell's epically sexy "Immortal Dragons" series. It is a fast-burn HOT and steamy RH odyssey, with some M/M content, not meant for the faint of heart (or libido)... #whychoose!
Discovery of Magick
Tabatha Stephenson - 2020
Those were all part of the plans I'd sort of made with my best friend since elementary school. We'd even talked about sharing a crappy apartment somewhere in our little nowhere town. Then my aunt and uncle surprised me with a graduation trip and it changed everything.No, really. EVERYTHING.For one, we'd not only left our little town of Boring, Kansas, but the United States– no, actually, the human world– entirely. I was going to college all right, only it was one for witches to hone their skills. Boy, was I ever behind. I hadn't even known I was one. That should have made things hard enough, but I caught the attention of one of the hottest guys I'd ever seen, though I wasn't sure if he liked me or hated me. Add to that, I also got noticed by the popular girl who saw him as hers. Oh, and did I mention I somehow acquired a ghost cat as a familiar? Or that the hot guy comes as some sort of magical package deal with his two best friends?Yeah, my life in Boring was over and interesting just might be overrated...This is book 1 of a slow burn reverse harem romance set at a university level magical academy. It is intended for mature readers only who love cats, magic, bullies getting their comeuppance, and a HEA.
