Hell Gates & Hot Flashes
Aurelia Skye - 2020
At forty-three, her career is everything that matters to her, besides her mother and grandmother, who move with her. It doesn’t take long for Jody to learn Harrow Bay is unusual. It’s home to all sorts of supernatural creatures, and there’s a Hell gate right at the center of town. Seriously, who thought it was a good idea to build an entire town around a Hell gate? As Willa, Jody’s mom, tries to figure out who she is now that she’s widowed, and Gram decides to wage war on the tyrant queen of the Senior Center, Jody realizes she’s not quite prepared for her new job when an escapee of Hell comes to Harrow Bay, with a handsome half-demon bounty hunter after him. Drake is clearly large (very large) and in charge, but he’s an insufferable jerk. The sooner she can end their collaboration, the better. Right?
Forbidden Bond
Rae Foxx - 2020
I did my own thing, played by my own rules.Which is why after my dad died I ran away from everything, only to find myself in a small town, at a tiny bar, hustling drinks to the truckers that liked to sneak peeks of my boobs. They clearly thought I didn’t notice. Oh, I noticed, and if they were nice enough about it I might let them see more than some well-placed cleavage in the back room. Hey, a girl on the move has to take her needs into her own hands, and sometimes my battery-powered boyfriend just isn’t good enough. It was all a good time until one of those handsome bikers that passed my way wanted a bit more than a backroom boink. Damn it all, these guys are persistent.Except there is something about him that makes me want to be around him, and hug him... and kiss him. Not exactly what my internal ‘lone wolf’ is used to. Except it turns out, I’m not the ‘wolf’ in this equation at all… and Luke has been searching for me for a while. A Shifter Romance with secrets, mystery, and lots of pulsing muscles. Happily Every After Guaranteed!
