Awakening Angel
Eva Brandt - 2019
I've never really believed in the idea of soulmates, but if I had, I suppose I might've seen it through the pink lenses of the romance movies that I enjoy more than I would like to admit. But movies aren't reality, and my luck has only ever been of one type—rotten. It stands to reason that my supposed love story and whirlwind soulmate romance turns out to be anything but rosy. It takes one single wrong decision, one night of reluctant clubbing, for my life to turn to hell. Suddenly I'm surrounded by shape-shifting assassins, vampires who say they want to devour me, and immortal princes who claim they can't feel. For some reason, more than one of them seems to think that I'm their soulmate, and that because of that, they need to die. To protect me from some awful, ancient curse, apparently, as if I'd ever ask for my life to be kept safe at the cost of their own. It's up to me to change their minds, because nobody else seems to have any sense whatsoever. Between having to wrangle suicidal soulmates, the mysterious voice that has suddenly popped up in my head and a strange power I hadn't even been aware I had, my hands are more than a little full. FML. Honestly, I really wish I'd stayed home and just watched a movie. How is this my life? Awakening Angel is a 84.000 words reverse harem dark paranormal romance that contains M/M content, cussing, violence and dark themes. Some readers may find certain elements disturbing. But if you're in the mood for something edgier, by all means, join my insanity!
The Unbreakable Curse
Alexia Purdy - 2018
As a cursed immortal, she was banished from entering heaven years ago. When paradise is out of reach, one must bargain away their fate.
Recruited by a corrupt archangel named Ereziel, Thalia must fight her way back into heaven and find a way through the gates of purgatory. Tasked with killing souls so vile, their darkness must be extinguished and collected as currency back into heaven. Thalia gains an unfortunate reputation as a blood-thirsty, self-destructing mercenary.
When one of vile souls tells her she’ll never be able to buy her way back into purgatory to reach heaven for she is not from either kingdom, she doesn’t believe him, even when he gifts her a locket he claims belongs to her. Killing him only brings the wrath of all the orders of demons and archangels in the city. Barely escaping their clutches alive, she must hustle to discover what the locket does and to confirm if a legendary realm outside of heaven, hell, and earth truly exists.
Accursed Archangels is a breakneck young adult urban fantasy adventure series which will appeal to readers of paranormal romance, vampires, reverse harems, angels, demons, and supernatural lore.
Four Princes
Cassie Alexandra - 2018
No Heir. An Uncertain Future. After an evil curse is cast upon the four corners of Syracuse, a vast country ruled by the Rothhaven family, maidens across the land suddenly become barren. Years pass, and the future of Family Rothhaven looks bleak, until eighteen-year-old Mariselle Langer wakes up one morning with cramps, a craving for chocolate, and a highly unexpected visit from Aunt Flow. Upon realizing that his daughter is different from the other maidens, Mariselle’s father approaches the leaders of the four kingdoms with the wonderful news. This sets off a chain of events which threaten to divide the Rothhaven brothers, who all desire her for themselves, and not just because she can give them an heir. Meanwhile, Mariselle has her own ideas about whom she wishes to wed, which not only shocks the nation, but ultimately… saves it. NOTE TO READERS: This title was originally published as "Four Corners" by Cassie Alexandra, but has since been unpublished. This version has been re-edited and has had additional content added to enhance the story. So... if the synopsis sounds familiar, that's why. We hope you enjoy the new and improved version, and the trilogy in general. ~Cassie & C.J.

Birthright
Kit Fawkes - 2017
She doesn’t discover that until the night her father dies, and she learns he wasn’t her father. He kidnapped her as a baby from her birth parents, Jim and Carol Allis. They seem ecstatic to find her, but she quickly learns they, along with their powerful dragon-shifter ally Pytor Douglas, have nefarious plans for her. She runs straight into the arms of another mysterious group, and they tell her she’s a Trueblood—descended from all the mythic races and capable of great power. She’s at risk, but the Council assigns her six bodyguards, and the Oracle has seen her future husband is among the six. North is dragged from realm to realm to learn how to use her powers. That task seems impossible—almost as impossible as choosing just one man from among the six mythics entrusted with her protection. How can she choose between a vampire, an angel, a demon, a witch, a dark elf, and a wolf-shifter when each of the men is perfect for her in different ways? Dare she risk everything and choose them all? Will she have a chance to make the decision, or will Pytor’s group get her first? This is the first in a multi-book series that will require reading in order to understand the plot arc. “Birthright” introduces the characters and has an incomplete ending. The story will continue in the next book (“Fire & Ice”) and so on. It is a PNR reverse harem story, and the heat factor will likely be high in later books, though this one is tame (not even a kiss yet, darn it!).

Angel
H.P. Mallory - 2019
The only thing I do know is that I’m running from something… When I’m taken prisoner to be thrust into a lifetime of prostitution, I learn I’m an angel. Yes, I bear the markings on my back: markings that reveal my wings have been removed. But when my only ally, a foul-mouthed sprite, insists my wings are intact, I realize the danger I’m facing. I need protection. And that protection can only come from three magically powerful men who were destined to protect the balance between shadow and light: Dragan, a gargoyle and the King of Shadow; Cambion, an elf and the King of Nature; and Baron, a vampire and the King of Death. At one time there were four but Variant, the King of Light, grew greedy and usurped control for himself. He banished Cambion to the Fae Realm and Dragan to the Shadow Realm. And he murdered Baron. Now Variant is after me... --Reverse Harem --Why Choose? --Language warning --Sexual content --Humor Check out the video trailer below! Excerpt: Dragan, The King of Shadow The shadows within me are pulling, struggling to maintain their grasp on the unconscious girl. I can feel them wrapping their tendrils of dark mist around her, holding onto her tightly. A woman has never had this effect on me. As soon as I touch her, I feel power pulsing through her tiny body. It envelops my hand and weaves up my arm, into my chest and causes my breath to freeze. By touching her, I feel my own magic begin to boil up as if it answers her silent call. But this time, the shadows aren’t trying to force me to take her—they’re responding to her, stimulated by her, drawn to her. I can’t explain it, but I feel captured by her, by the magic that undoubtedly flows within her. Using the Arcane Magic that’s part of me, I whisper the words to allow myself to become invisible in the eyes of those who would perceive me. I imagine myself becoming one with the shadows, one with Shadow Magic that infiltrates me—that is me. ### Cambion, The King of Nature I remember the visions the angel had... First, the sex. A not-altogether-unpleasant visual. It was more than a vision, though. Like a dream, the sensation—phantom, but present—has arrested me and now I can’t stop replaying it. I don’t trust her. And I don’t trust the vision, either. In fact, the more I think about it, the more convinced I become that she’s after something. Women, I’ve found, are manipulative, and the smart ones understand they possess what every man wants. This one is no different. I’m more than convinced she’s using her extreme beauty to seduce us because I find myself craving her. Yet I’m not satisfied that this desire originates from inside me. Instead, I wonder if I’ve been enchanted. Dragan definitely appears to have been completely bewitched, because he can’t take his bloody eyes off her for more than a few seconds. The barbarian is too stupid for his own good. Where he sees an injured doe in the woods, I see an intelligent predator in the midst of setting a very convincing trap… ### Baron, The King of Death Dragan doesn’t trust me. But he really doesn’t trust me with the girl. Little does he know I’m uninterested.
