Courting Darkness
Katie May - 2021
Fighting my family. And fighting for my life. Trust me—the first one is completely voluntary, and a lot of fun. The second? Not so much. To say my family dynamic is weird is the understatement of the century. I held my first sword when I was only five years old, and I learned how to dispose of a body before I turned ten. I may have a penchant for pink and sparkles…but that doesn’t mean I don’t know how to kick major ass as well. As if my life isn't complicated enough, my body is being ravaged by a chronic, mystery illness. Seizures? Check. Passing out? Check. Agonizing pain? Check. A host of other unexplainable ailments? Double check. After a change in my parents’ job takes us across the country, I find myself doing something I’ve never done before—attend an actual high school, despite my sickness. But this school? Well…it’s a little weird...I'm always turned around, and there's something happening I just can't put my finger on. And don’t even get me started on my sexy as sin teacher and his equally as gorgeous twin brother. Or Tristan, who kind of reminds me of an energetic puppy. Or Kian, who has a harem of girls at his beck and call, despite seemingly unhappy with his entire life. Or Foster and Gage, who are revered and feared in equal measure. With a serial killer stalking the streets of this odd, little town, my new friends and family are on high alert. One thing becomes clear…Humans aren’t the only beings who walk this earth. And if I don’t uncover the secrets of my new school, I may be the killer’s next victim.Courting Darkness is a reverse harem paranormal romance, meaning the main character will end up with more than one love interest by the end of the series.

Breath of Chaos
Merry Ravenell - 2019
A dying dragon. And not even a proper fire-breathing dragon. From Lemuria. Because Reasons. And they were dying. And I was in prison (again). Great. Just. Great. Civil engineer Helena didn't intend to get mixed up with her smoldering-hot ex, Auryn. But an expired passport, a typhoon, and some corrupt government officials (and maybe the cosmos itself) had something to say about that. She especially did not intend to get mixed up with dying alien space dragons living under the sea. They're a nice enough bunch. Except they want her dead. To survive, she'll have to prove that she's destined to be there... by spinning water into air. This is gonna call for more duct tape. Breath of Chaos is a slow-burn sci-fantasy reverse harem romance featuring a brilliant heroine who plays with dragon magic, ancient aliens, and potty water. Hold the beer, this is going to get weird.

Academy of Protectors (The Protector Guild #1)
Gray Holborn - 2021
And while it wasn’t exactly swoon-worthy to watch my date get ripped from my lips, luckily for him, I’m pretty great at kicking ass. I doubt I’ll get that second date any time soon, but I have to say that the whole thing wasn’t a total waste. Now that the monsters have invaded my small town, my family is finally ready to ditch the secluded cabin I grew up in, with nothing but a fat stack of books and TV to keep me and my brother from dying of boredom, for greener pastures. I’ve always dreamed of joining The Protector Guild—a secret establishment that studies captured demons and trains protectors to kill them. And when I enroll in The Guild Academy designed to train protectors to hunt escaped creatures from hell, I’m convinced I’m finally going to find my place in the world—just like the protagonists in all those books I’ve devoured. But I quickly learn that things in The Guild aren’t at all what they seem and I’ve been fed a steaming sack of lies my whole life. Maybe the old isolated cabin wasn’t so bad after all. At least back home I knew who I could trust. Sort of.After meeting a team of mysterious protectors who are way too good looking to be trustworthy, it’s up to my new friends (and enemies) to keep the very demons I’m supposed to be chasing after from chasing me instead. Great. So much for that new and exciting life I’ve always wanted. Clearly, there’s such a thing as too exciting...and that whole ‘careful what you wish for’ thing might have some merit.◆ Academy of Protectors is the first book in a new series. Max's story is a slow-burn why choose / poly / reverse harem urban fantasy series. Get ready for action, spice, and intrigue.◆
