About the book
At first, it was hailed as a miracle of science.
In reality, it was a catastrophic mistake.
Dr. Elliot Alere never imagined his greatest achievement would become his greatest regret. Driven by ambition and the promise of medical breakthroughs, he accomplished the impossible: resurrecting an extinct marine predator—the cameroceras.
He believed the ancient cephalopod could unlock new frontiers in science.
Instead, he unleashed a monster.
When the creature escapes mid-transport, it vanishes into the waters surrounding Green Pastures, a quiet island off the West Coast. Over forty feet long, armed with ten muscular arms tipped with razor-sharp talons, and protected by a massive, cone-shaped shell, the beast wastes no time racking up a body count.
Haunted by guilt, Alere persuades his employer to mount a high-risk operation to recapture the creature. He joins forces with an idealistic marine biologist, a washed-up crab boat captain, and a group of ruthless trophy hunters.
The hunt proves to be the last for many involved, for nothing is safe from the creature’s mighty arms and the pointed tip of its immense CONE.

About the book
A billionaire's bet. A wedding without a bride. And the planner who never planned on falling for the groom.
When Manhattan's most meticulous wedding planner Anica Marcel is offered one million dollars to orchestrate charming tech billionaire Callan Burkhardt's perfect wedding, sans a bride, she knows it's a recipe for disaster. He needs to marry someone within three months to win a $30 million bet with his friends. She needs the money to expand her business. The only problem? He's cocky, knows it, and is sabotaging every match she finds for him.
Their arrangement has clear boundaries: she'll plan his dream wedding and help him find a suitable match. No emotional entanglements. No crossing lines. Absolutely no falling for each other.
But as they navigate venue visits posing as an engaged couple and spend time with Callan's meddling grandmother, those professional boundaries blur. Behind his cynical view of love and playboy façade, Anica discovers a man with genuine kindness and unexpected vulnerabilities. And despite her best defenses, Callan sees through her perfectly organized exterior to the heart she's kept carefully guarded since her ex cheated on her with a client.
When things heat up between the two of them, Anica faces an impossible choice: risk her heart on a man who doesn't believe love exists, or walk away from the only one who's made her want to trust again.
Witty, emotional, and deliciously romantic—Bride Not Included delivers wedding season's most swoon-worthy read.

“Claimed by destiny and forged for war.”
Eighteen-year-old Ara has always been different. As a hunter living on the northern edge of civilization, he possesses an uncanny ability to sense predators lurking in the dark—and worse. After killing a demonic assassin with nothing but his hunting knife and sheer determination, Ara’s quiet life is shattered forever.
His victory doesn’t go unnoticed.
Branded and claimed by the mysterious Order of the Vigil, Ara is thrust into a world where demons crawl through portals from Hell itself, threatening to devour everything he's ever cared about. The kingdom’s demon attacks aren't random—someone is weaponizing Hell itself, and entire cities are paying the price.
As a marked recruit, Ara soon discovers that the greatest battles aren’t always fought with blade and claw. Hidden powers and deadly secrets collide with political schemes that span multiple realms. Alongside unlikely allies—including an exiled dark elf princess with deadly secrets of her own—Ara learns he must do more than simply survive. He must embrace the monster within to protect those he loves.
Perfect for fans of Anthony Ryan and Michael J. Sullivan, Firefanged launches an epic dark fantasy saga where coming-of-age meets demon-slaying action in a richly imagined world of political intrigue, unlikely alliances, and unbreakable bonds.

About the book
“You’ve sacrificed what mattered most. The dominion took its due—you just don’t yet know what it claimed. "
"Handsome, with a will of iron. Quick to act." Her fingers grazed his forearm, her touch impossibly light yet burning. The goddess noticed his grip on the blade, her eyes flickering to it with a smile. "And with a cold heart..." She leaned closer, so close he could feel her breath against his ear. "Men like you," she whispered, "are my weakness."
Under the night sky, a king was secretly waiting for a fleet to come. An army was promised, but instead, a blade touched his throat. That's how everything started...
"The Poisonous Crown" is a dark fantasy forged from the ashes of the land of Oriana, where forgotten religion and ancient fairy tales twist into nightmares.
This tale is no gentle fable—it is cruel, unflinching, and mercilessly real: a world drenched in blood and betrayal, where torture and injustice reign, and monstrous beings walk beside us—some cloaked in human flesh, others clawing their way from realms long hidden. Here, the gods are no saviors, and they always demand their due.
This is a story for the brave. The main character, Zorian, would do whatever it takes to claim the Golden Throne of Kyvgar and make sure his name is not forgotten.
Fans of "The Witcher" and "Game of Thrones" would love it.
"Should Helgi prove the three sacred trials—loyalty unbroken, courage unyielding, and devotion to his purpose—and, above all, should he live to see the sunrise, then the mantle of chieftain shall be his. And when dawn breaks, the Rikars will stand behind him."

About the book
An FBI agent hunting a serial killer has to up his game when a trail of murders is not what it seems in a riveting thriller by Wall Street Journal bestselling author Steven Konkoly.
Five dismembered bodies are found along the roadside, dumped in the middle of nowhere. This isn’t new to Special Agent Garrett Mann. Head of ARTEMIS, a specialized FBI task force hell-bent on hunting down cartel-related killings in the Southwest, Mann has seen this before.

From a lakeside Minnesota mansion to an abandoned CIA black site in New Mexico, the hunt is on. But the closer Mann gets to his prey, the deadlier the stakes become. This is no ordinary serial killer. He’s not working alone—and the stakes go far beyond just preventing the serial killer’s next massacre. What Mann unravels is a powerful and far-reaching conspiracy beyond his wildest imagination.

About the book
Love wasn’t on Sam Caldwell’s agenda until a city boy with haunted eyes and no coat crashed into his world.
As a fourth-generation maple farmer in Caldwell Crossing, New Hampshire, Sam is rooted in tradition, family, and a quiet life filled with woodsmoke, laughter, and loyal friends.

Forced to leave his career and reputation behind, he retreats to the one safe place left—his great-aunt Harriet’s home in Caldwell Crossing. But safety doesn’t mean peace, and the last thing he needs is to catch feelings for the grumpy, gentle farmer who rescued him.
