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!

Ravenwood Academy: Year One: Wolf Moon
Lena Mae Hill - 2019
When a letter arrives saying she's been accepted to the mysterious Ravenwood Academy for the Exceptionally Gifted, she jumps at the chance. Never mind that she's not sure what she's supposedly gifted at, or the fact that she doesn't remember actually applying there. When she arrives, the school seems like a dream full of beautiful people ready to befriend her. There's only one problem with Ravenwood: it's run by the Wolf brothers, three surly, thuggish, insanely gorgeous guys. Timberlyn's new friends give strict instructions to stay far away from them. Unfortunately, she's not good at taking orders. When girls at the school begin disappearing, Timberlyn refuses to maintain the status quo. She's sure the Wolf boys are up to something, and if she has to, she'll take them down herself. That is, if they don't take her down first.
Her Pack
Candace Wondrak - 2019
Highly-sought after, even fought for. But if Maia has her way, she’ll stay unclaimed. Maybe it’s a human way of thinking, but she should get to decide who to be with. It isn’t asking for the world. On the run from her old pack due to a slight misunderstanding with her intended mate—meaning a claw to his throat—Maia stumbles upon a quaint town in the middle of nowhere. What she does not expect is the trifecta of misfit wolves who’ve made the town their home. Alarick, the understanding, calm and collected alpha. Farkas, the sarcastic and witty beta. Grimm, the tall, dark and handsome loner. All ridiculously sexy, and they instantly make her question her beliefs. Maybe being claimed wouldn’t be such a bad thing… Her Pack is a steamy, reverse harem standalone.

Or uncommon. I'm sure there are a lot of girls with old gypsy blood who see the dead, have killer cults hunting their family, and turn into something that gets scary when they panic. Yep.

I've been labeled as one thing or another for most of my life: Death Girl. Crazy Gypsy Girl. Gothic Chick. Monster... It took my mother's death for me to finally start getting answers about what's really been going on. Unfortunately, most of the answers come from men...who aren't just men. Somehow, I've gone and landed myself in a world truly filled with monsters, and I'm starting to think this is where I should have been all along. Only...I don't understand what's going on. I'm walking into the middle of a story that's thousands of years old, and I'm the new girl on the block who doesn't have a clue how this world even works. My only guides happen to be the most lethal of the bunch. They decide who lives or dies. They decide who gets stabbed or tortured. Yeah... I've gone and drawn attention to myself, and the ones paying attention are the ones everyone else seems to fear. How do these things always happen to me? **Reverse Harem **Language warning **Sexual content **Dark Humor
