I'm Cursed
Kat Quinn - 2019
Maybe it’s your dream to get tackled by a heaping helping of beefcake; hopelessly pinned beneath them, at the mercy of multiple sets of hands and lips and eyes trapping you and demanding attention. Me? I just want to make it through the day without doing too much damage. Tornados, sinkholes, lightning strikes, explosions, a drain pipe full of bees… I’ve been there though them all. But it’s not my fault!You see, I’m cursed to always be cursed. Somebody wants to get revenge on you when I’m in town? Well TOUGH LUCK because they’re getting revenge on me instead! Thank you for that weekend of all-foods-are-extra-spicy, unknown stranger. No, that’s okay, person-who-tried-to-make-someone-else-unable-to-wear-clothes-ever-again, I don’t mind a fine breeze between my lady bits. And to you, asshole casserole who tried to literally kill me last week? Well… you can get bent. That’s honestly just rude. Usually my curse comes with a side of disaster, and after really, really hurting more than one person... well... I’ve been on a never-ending, cross-country, don’t-look-back-just-keep-on-running-away tour for pretty much forever. Sure, it’s lonely, but never setting down roots means never getting caught, or killed. At least I’ve got my furry best friend Aria-don’t know what I’d do without her.Per usual, my hotel just happened to burn down this morning so it looks like I’d best get to gettin’ while the gettin’s still good, ya get it? Just one itsy-bitsy-teensie-weensie-purple-haired-and-no-bikini problem…. I may have accidentally sort of kind of tied myself to those hunks I mentioned earlier and may or may not literally be unable to go anywhere without at least one of them. Oops! And maybe I sort of kind of like them enough to not want them to get murdered in my superstorm of chaos. Double oops.Sigh. Friggin’ Tuesdays, am I right?This is a medium burn paranormal reverse harem romance with explicit scenes of violence, sex (all sex in this book is consensual), and abuse that may be triggering for some. There is mild M/M included in this book and will progress as the story does. It is the first book in a series within an overall world epic, but it does not end in a cliffhanger. Hope happily for now is your jam! Please be aware that this is recommended for readers 18+
Newly Undead in Dark River
Grace McGinty - 2019
Population 0. When Mika McKellen woke up in a stormwater drain while backpacking around Canada, she knew that her mother was right. If you made bad choices, you would end up dead in a ditch. But when she stumbled into Dark River, even her mother could never have dreamed up the residents of this small town in the middle of nowhere, Alberta. Oh, it had all the usual suspects. Quirky diner owners, untrustworthy outcasts and a Sheriff so hot he’d make any red-blooded woman with a heartbeat beg to be in cuffs in the back of his patrol vehicle. No, the really unusual thing about Dark River was that it was entirely populated by the Undead. Vampires to be specific. And so was Mika. As Mika adjusts to the life of a Vampire, a dark presence stalks her from the shadows. One of the residents of Dark River was her maker and her murderer. And they were determined to ensure that Mika never rested in peace.
Elements of Mischief
Tate James - 2017
Read with a glass of wine and a smile! Four hunky, supernatural plumbers. One reluctant, slightly drunk human. A match made in heaven … or in the bathroom, rather. My name is Arizona Smoke, and I'm the proud owner of a house haunted by my dead Gram, best friend to a cocktail dress loving werewolf, and apparent soul mate to four plumbers who also happen to be elemental dragons. Besides rippling pectorals, tattoos, and … uh, nice, long pipes, the guys also have control of the elements. Supernatural law (whoever heard of such a thing anyway?) dictates that since I stumbled upon the guys in their alternate forms, I have to marry them. All four of them. Oh, and apparently one lousy (okay, awesome) night of sex means that I'm an elemental, too—and no amount of magical penicillin can cure this disease. All I wanted was hot running water and toilets that flushed, but now I'm dealing with monsters lurking in the sewers, supernatural politics, and four penniless (but totally hot) plumbers living in my crumbling old Victorian. I'm Ari Smoke, wine aficionado, ex-barista, and a girl who is completely out of her element. Having four hot husbands is nice … but the death threats, not so much.

All the Teacher's Pet Beasts
N.J. Adel - 2019
I can't believe I married that fuc… I mean, my college professor. You think this sh*t we blandly call domestic abuse doesn't happen to someone like me, a nerd smart enough to get her PhD in her twenties and becomes a professor herself. Well, it does. But don't you dare feel sorry for me. The monster is behind bars for now, and I've moved to Forest Grove, Oregon to start fresh. Where the worst is already over. Where it's safe from monsters. Right? WRONG. Forest Grove is swarming with...danger. The kind you only read about in paranormal romance books. I'm talking vampires, shifters like wolves, huge wolves that come in twins, and many more. P.S. They are NOT smoking as hell beasts who swoon and fall in love with you forever like they tell you in those reads. Well, the smoking as hell part, yes...of course...how else will they mess with your head...but not the second part. And each beast thinks they have some sort of claim on me. What the hell? Now that my monster of a husband is on the loose, sending me notes, threatening me to go back to him, and the sizzling beasts in my class want a piece of me, LITERALLY, I'm terrified and lost. If I go back to the monster I know, at least, I'll still be human, even for a short while before his next rage kills me. If I surrender to the beasts and become their mate, I'll live forever protected as a beast myself without a soul. Survival 101 doesn't even begin to prepare you for this. What would you do? HELP!

Sincerely Yours
Lizzie Fox - 2019
They couldn’t be more wrong. I’ve been abused, mocked, and ridiculed all in the public eye. I live for weeks on end in a smelly tour bus, my family is the worst, and all I have is my playboy manager, Christian, for company. So, I get bored and sit on social media. No big deal. I don’t think anything of it until this gorgeous, sweet man named Jordan reaches out to me. He consoles me in the sweetest messages I’ve ever received, and says the nicest things I’ve always wanted to hear. I haven’t even met him yet. But one way or another, I’m going to make sure our paths cross. Jordan Nashton: I’m not sure what I was thinking reaching out to her on social media. Perhaps it was the unnatural desire I have to protect someone from the thing that harmed my sister. Maybe it’s just because I’m a bored, lonely, broke fanboy with nothing better to do. I didn’t think she’d actually read my messages. When she shows up at my work one day, I can’t believe my eyes. She’s every bit as feisty and beautiful as she seems to be on stage. There’s a connection between us I can’t wait to explore, but love is rarely that simple. Her life is infamous, her manager is harboring a big secret from everyone and I’m not sure if I can handle it all. I’m willing to try though, to see if I have what it takes to make Evan Michaels sincerely mine. Possible trigger: Domestic violence is described and discussed, but not shown. Please read cautiously if these are triggering themes for you. The (Lots of Love series is a polyamorous romance. Evan will eventually have multiple consensual love interests, and one of those interests has an interest of his own. While book one has m/f sexy time, the rest of the series may contain threesomes and maybe moresomes, m/m sexy encounters, and naughty language. This series is meant for adults only.)

The Hanged Maiden
Cara Wylde - 2019
Thank Goddess there's a solid protocol in place! All she needs to do is find the Major Arcana, and Keepers who are more powerful and experienced than her will take over from there and protect the Mysteries of the Tarot.Or not.What happens when half of the Major Arcana is destroyed? Valentina doesn't know. There are no protocols. No precedent. She's lost, but the good news is she's not alone. She can count of her best friend, Piper, a hobgoblin who decided to follow them, and now on this handsome, hot as sin guy who claims he's Loki himself, the God of Mischief.It could have been worse.Oh, wait! It's going to be. Because in order to save the Tarot, Valentina will soon have to deal with even more gods. And, it is known, gods are impossible to work with! Mainly, because they hate each other. One witch to convince nine powerful gods to play nice?Unlikely.Note from the author: This is a slow-burn reverse harem book. Although the next books in the series will be steamy and 18+, this one is quite tame. Hang in there! The steam is coming! Also, make sure to check out the Prequel - The Test, to meet Valentina's nine gods before she meets them for real in the series.
