The Mixtape to the Real Me

Jake Martinez

After a crazy summer of teenage drama and newfound love, Justin Ortega and Dominic Mendoza have decided to take things slower in order to really get to know each other. Both have dreamt of being with someone who truly understands them, but neither teen thought it would be this hard, especially when you have to keep your relationship a secret from the whole world.

Just when they think their lives will always be filled with sneaking around, along comes a new student who opens their eyes to some wonderful new possibilities. But the road to a bright future has some harsh realities, and not everyone is pleased to see the new couple roam the halls of Garza High. Things get especially tense for Dominic when an unwanted figure shows up wanting to see him.

Will Justin and Dominic be able to find a happy ending, or will their past and future collide in ways they never expected?

Dragon’s Breath: Black Flame

Dragon's Breath: Black Flame

Kenla Nelson

Nihility the Harbinger feels a flicker of danger, a sense of impending doom. She is the black dragoness, Empath, and Weaver of the Dreaming.

Destined the Farseer has been too long away from his body in a place called the Between. He is Nihility’s mate, bonded eternally through their heart of hearts. Known as the prophet, and Walker, he now finds himself at the center of an old danger.

The demons known as the Prem threaten their homeworld. Hurrying to her mate’s aid, Nihility calls on Destined’s other mate, the Watcher, Endrir the Broken. All must unite, and overcome their differences—even if it means Endrir must expose the secrets he has tried to keep from Nihility—for the three dragons face more than just the seven great demons who seek their freedom. Jezzar, the once great dragoness, leads the forces of darkness, and Nihility will need her strength to face her, as only she can.

For she is the wielder of the Black Flame, their only hope.

His Mate Series

His Mate Series

Charli Mac

Now available as a bundle! The His Mate series is a set of fated-to-be-mated PNR novellas featuring shifters, werewolves and demons (Oh my!). We even throw in a witch for good measure. In a world where things go bump (and grind) in the night, our heroes are smart, seductive, and sexy as hell. They’re on the hunt for some badass, beautiful and even book-reading heroines. This complete bundle contains all six novellas of the His Mate Paranormal Romance series.

His Curious Mate
Anna is sensible, staid, and single—and sick of it. She wants excitement; she wants to be tied down and spanked! How’s shifter Callum supposed to say no to that, especially when the woman is his mate?

His Cautious Mate
Getting tied up by his mate isn’t the most conventional start to a relationship, but Gregor has no intentions of going anywhere, not when he’s got shy but sensual Bea playing nurse maid.

His Capricious Mate
Coffin? Seethe master Tobias has a kink dungeon, thank you very much, and he’s delighted to give ex-cop-now-artist Cat her own, very personal tour.

His Calamitous Mate
Daisy is a witch with a problem—Abigor, warrior demon, the Grand Duke of Hell. He’s just attached himself to her as her personal bodyguard, key word: personal.

His Classy Mate
Evangeline is a vampire and lady. That won’t stop her from doing what needs to be done to protect human Michael from the malicious intentions of fellow vampire Julian.

His Contrary Mate
Janna is meant to take a wolf for a mate, not a hapless vampire. Kevin doesn’t much care for what should happen, and if he has to take on an entire shifter pack to keep her, he will.

I Know You’re Out There Somewhere

I Know You're Out There Somewhere

Joe Baumann

Kyle Filburn appears to have a picture-perfect life. He's entering his senior year, in a relationship with a great girl, on his high school's three-times-straight state championship soccer team, and an art professor from the local university has invited him to show and sell his work in his gallery.

But a chance meeting with a midfielder from a rival high school creates cracks in this picture-perfect life. Kyle develops feelings for this boy, throwing him into confusion. What does he want? And with whom? And when an anonymous patron starts buying his art, Kyle starts to wonder whether he should really be pursuing art school rather than athletics.

It becomes crystal clear that this picture-perfect life no longer reflects who Kyle is or who he wants to be...but what does that mean for Kyle?

The Aziza Chronicles: Awakening

The Aziza Chronicles: Awakening

TreVaughn Malik Roach-Carter

Discovering her descent from mythological African warriors called the Aziza was just the beginning of Justice Montgomery’s troubles. For not only has she been chosen to be their champion against supernatural evils—a demon is on the loose seeking to manipulate her into misusing her newfound powers.

Determined to do what’s right and live up to her heritage, Justice trains and forms a band of allies, both human and supernatural. Yet the demon is determined to lead her astray, in the hope that her power might be used to enact an ancient prophecy.

Should she succeed, Justice might become one of the most legendary Aziza to ever live. But should she fail, she might resurrect a goddess of Hell, and doom the world.

L.I.F.E. Too

L.I.F.E. Too

L.I.F.E. #2

Felyx Lawson

Rider Williams is a typical high school student. He has classes, plays guitar, and dreams of being a journalist. He’s out at school, even if it wasn’t his choice, and he’s secretly dating a boy from the basketball team. Okay, so he’s not your typical high school student.

While Rider might be out, his relationship with Cameron Walker is not. Cam loves their time together. What he feels for Rider is something he’s never felt before, but despite being head over heels for each other, both struggle to say how they truly feel.

Maybe the class trip to New York City will be the push they need to grow even closer? Or maybe not. Turns out Rider and Cam have to share their room with Octavius Spencer and Michael Myers—two of Rider’s biggest enemies. Relationships are difficult in high school, and even more so when they’re half in the closet.

Can Rider and Cam survive their senior year?

There’s still plenty of the school year left, but Rider knows L.I.F.E. is just getting started.

Geist

Geist

Phantasia #1

Mark Kelly

The Geist exist to ferry ghosts away from dead bodies and into the gates of the afterlife. At least, that’s what Ash Murphy was told after he died in a fiery car crash and became one.

Ash is forced to leave his old life behind and join the ranks of the mostly invisible, seemingly immortal Geist. And they all seem pretty perky for people who deal with death on a daily basis.

After years of rejection and isolation, Ash finally has a group of friends he's willing to fight for. Of course, not everyone believes that Geist are doing God's work. Ash discovers this when he attracts the ire of The Brotherhood of Eternity, who believe Geist are actually murdering those they reap. And they will stop at nothing to exorcize every Geist on Earth.

Ash will do whatever it takes to defend his new family and take down the Brotherhood…or he'll die (again) trying.

Blowin’ My Mind Like a Summer Breeze

Blowin' My Mind Like a Summer Breeze

Benjamin Roesch

Fifteen-year-old Rainey Cobb never thought meeting someone could actually change her life. But, then again, she’s never met anyone like Juliet.

It’s 1995 and The Cobb Family Band, led by Rainey’s rock star parents, has arrived for a week-long gig at the Midwestern resort owned by Juliet’s family. Dazzled by Juliet’s carpe diem attitude, DIY tattoos, and passion for grunge, Rainey falls hard. And when Juliet gives Rainey a mixtape that unlocks her heart’s secret yearnings, Rainey starts seeing herself—and her vagabond, show-biz life—through new eyes.

If Rainey quits the band, her parents’ fading career might never recover. But if she doesn’t leap now, she might be stuck forever in a life she didn’t choose…and always wonder who she could have been.
