     THE WOLF'S CAPTURE: It should have just been a simple vacation, away from everyone and everything to clear my head. But I soon realized I wasn’t alone. He stalked me, hunted me. I should’ve run faster, tried harder. But the truth was I liked him chasing me. Wolf was a ruthless man, his way of living barbaric. Now he had me in his off-the-grid cabin, what he deemed my new home. I was his new wife, would have his babies. I was his irrevocably. I shouldn’t have felt arousal. But I did. He’s not going to let me escape ... but then again, maybe I don’t want to. THE BEAR'S CAPTURE: The solitude had always been my companion and I accepted it, embraced it. Living on my own with the forest as my backyard had always been good enough for me. Until it no longer was. The quiet could be loud, the loneliness a burden. I was tired of being on my own. I wanted a wife, needed a woman to call my own. Who I wanted was Susie. She was sweet and kind, innocent and soft in all the right places. She made this caveman part of me rise up and take control. The things I wanted to do to her would probably frighten her, scare her away for good. I didn’t pretend to be a gentleman. I was brutal and savage in my way of living, but when I looked at her I felt something soften within me. It was time to man up and tell her what I wanted, that she was all I thought about, all I needed in my life. NOTE: Dive into two safe reads featuring over-the-top alpha heroes who will do whatever it takes to be with the women they love. Both stories are filled with happily ever afters and epilogue goodness. THESE ARE NOT PARANORMAL.

    I lost my home, my family was slaughtered, and my kingdom usurped.  And then things really got bad.  I saved King Mynogin and won the honor of a likely-fatal run through the Temple of Cocidius to gain him its treasure. Trust me when I say this isn't a change in my luck. Gathering the temple's eight artifacts has never been accomplished and a thousand men have perished to its beasts and puzzles.   But I've maybe not been entirely truthful with Mynogin. I'm armed with two of the most powerful weapons: a secret, and an ace up my sleeve. With help from the mythical women who inhabit the mad god's temple, I may just turn the tables King Mynogin and the Oryllix - a pair of magical creatures with a terrifying, insatiable appetite for destruction. Eight dungeons, a thousand corpses before me and a bevvy of kickass women fighting by my side. Easy. All in a day's a work. What could go wrong? Temple of Cocidius is not for readers who suffer from an aversion to intense depictions of blood, gore, and daring men getting down with beautiful monster girls. If you suffer from any of these, you should talk with your doctor about whether Cocidius is right for you.
