His Sassy Omega


Raiven Matthews - 2022
    Truthfully, I barely believed in love. It wasn’t something I’d ever needed, and I didn’t have time for it. Besides, love just led to being hurt, and I could do without that.When a huge alpha barged his way to the front of the line in my bakery, it was anything but a meet cute. My sassy mouth promptly told him exactly where he could take his perfectly formed behind. Right back out the door he’d just come in, and don’t come back, thank you very much. Then our hands touched, and sparks of electricity shot between us, and my soul screamed Mate. I wasn’t looking for love or a mate, but he was looking at me and I couldn’t look anywhere else. He was big and sexy and growly, and smelled like every wishful dream I’d ever had, and forgotten. Making me want things I’d never wanted before. Making me want to run from him as fast as my legs could carry me. Secretly, hoping he would chase me.LachlanI was having a bad morning. Clashing with a smart-mouthed, sarcastic omega was the cherry on top of my already bad day. Getting tossed out of my favorite place for sweet treats was not how I’d planned to start my day. I’d always played by the rules and done what was expected of me. My whole life, I’d known what I’d wanted in my mate. Until he was standing in front of me, nothing like I’d expected him to be, sassing me and ordering me about. Now he was all I wanted. I just had to convince him of that.We were opposites in every way. Fate must have gotten Her wires crossed and messed up big time. Or did She? His Sassy Omega is the first book in a series, but can be read as a standalone, with no cliff hangers and a HEA.

Lorelei M. Hart - 2021
    Life as a Dragon Prince is all fun and games...until someone uncovers an ancient law. Omega dragon shifter Chance is living his best life. As the youngest prince of Montipan, he has all the benefits of his family bloodline with none of the responsibilities...or so he thought. When his father’s advisor uncovers an ancient law connecting his family's position in the kingdom to his mating, Chance does what any single omega would do—he takes his family jet to the mainland for a little fun, and a little fun he has. Make that a lot of fun. Alpha dragon shifter Devlin can’t believe his luck, being hired by Montipan’s ruling family as head of their security. It is the opportunity of a lifetime and he is ready to celebrate. His night at the local pub hanging out with friends turns into a night of passion when an omega who ticks off all his boxes walks in and sits down beside him, awakening a side of himself he indulges—his daddy side. Devlin never expects to see Chance again, much become his bodyguard, the bodyguard assigned to be his shadow. With roles in place and protocol set, he needs to push his desires and growing feelings and do his job even if his dragon is calling the prince mine and his heart is calling him boy. The Dragon Prince’s Daddy is the first book in the M/M mpreg shifter Royal Heat series about three (or is it four) dragon princes who are in a race against time to find their true mates and save their ruling line. The Dragon Prince’s Daddy features a free spirit dragon, a bodyguard who thinks he has better things to do than chase after a royal brat, a one night stand that turns into more, an unexpected clutch, adorable babies, and a first time royal heat. While each book stands alone, they are enjoyed best when read in order. If you love dragons, nesting, a hot daddy, royal brats, and true love, this series by the co-author team of Lorelei M. Hart, Colbie Dunbar and Trisha Linde is for you.
