Nox and Amaris dreamed of reunion, but dreams demand sacrifice. Thrust into the fractured kingdom of Raascot, they must carry new titles and crushing expectations, even as their bond strains under the weight of politics, prophecy, and war.
As humans, fae, and monsters edge toward open conflict, alliances shift like shadows and old wounds demand healing. Nox and Amaris’s love—once their refuge—becomes another battlefield, tested by secrets, scars, and the future neither is sure they’re ready to claim.

Because destiny doesn’t wait—and survival is never guaranteed.

About the book
Shane Taggart knows how lucky he is.
After a lifetime of scrimping, saving, and barely getting by, he struck it rich with a winning lottery ticket. Now he owns a successful bar called The Anchor, helps his mom with her women’s shelter, sent his youngest brother on a trip around the world, and works closely with his middle brother to help out in the local community without bankrupting himself. The only thing missing in his life is a bit of romance. But it’s hard to find guys into doing things the way he likes best.
Archer Kinsman had it all.
He opened the tattoo shop of his dreams with his best friend, Clayton. Things were going great, and they were finally making real money. Then came the morning Archer woke up to empty bank accounts and a missing best friend. Forced to close up shop, Archer moves in with his brother, Cyrus, and his husband. It’s cramped, but it’s just until he gets back on his feet. It can’t take too long, right?
The tides turn when Shane and Archer meet.
Archer is everything Shane is looking for. He’s easy to be around, and he’s more than willing to top, despite their size difference. Even if their chemistry wasn’t off the charts, Shane would still want to help him get his life back on track.
Soon, Archer is living above The Anchor, and getting his business up and running again. But there’s still one big problem–Archer’s brother, Cyrus, is protective of him, especially after what he went through with Clayton.
Cyrus is also Shane’s best friend.
Shane is willing to risk it all for Archer. His friendship, his business, even his heart. Will he lose everything or will luck smile on him twice in a lifetime?
The Anchor is a low angst, sweet and spicy romance series that’s a spin-off from Breakfast at Bennett’s. Though they’re in the same universe, you don’t need to read Breakfast at Bennett’s to enjoy this series.

Punch Me Up To The Gods
Biographies & Memoirs · LGBTQIA+
Our take
Winner of the Kirkus Prize and a New York Times Notable Book, Brian Broome’s Punch Me Up to the Gods is a searing, poetic memoir of Blackness, masculinity, and addiction. Praised by Augusten Burroughs as “simply spectacular” and earning 4.6 out of 5 stars, this debut brims with humor, heartbreak, and unflinching honesty. A modern masterpiece of memoir.
Choose your retailer
About the book
Brian Broome’s childhood in Ohio was defined by contradictions: a dark-skinned Black boy with secret crushes on other boys, a mother both fierce and unyielding, a father broken yet omnipresent, and a world quick to remind him he was an outsider. To cope, he turned to sex, drugs, and self-destruction—escapes that often ended in equal parts comedy and heartbreak.
But beneath the chaos was always the search for belonging, for truth, for the freedom to exist fully in his own skin. Framed by Gwendolyn Brooks’s iconic poem We Real Cool, Broome’s memoir is both raw and lyrical, a story of masculinity, addiction, and survival.
Winner of the Kirkus Prize, Punch Me Up to the Gods is a staggering debut that redefines the modern memoir.

About the book
London, 1894. John Addington and Henry Ellis have never met, yet they share a dangerous ambition: to publish a book arguing that homosexuality—illegal and reviled—is a natural variation of love. Each man is married, each marriage unconventional, and each harbors forbidden attachments that threaten the fragile balance of their lives.
As they edge closer to publication, news breaks of Oscar Wilde’s arrest. Suddenly their project isn’t just radical, it’s perilous. To continue risks imprisonment, scandal, and the ruin of their families. To stop means betraying their ideals—and the possibility of a freer future.
Winner of the Orwell Prize and the Sunday Times Novel of the Year, Tom Crewe’s debut is a visceral, stirring portrait of love, courage, and the price of progress.

About the book
Sade Hussein never expected her first night at Alfred Nobel Academy to end in disaster. Homeschooled until now, she’s already bracing for the pressure of an elite boarding school. But when her new roommate, Elizabeth, vanishes without a trace, suspicion falls squarely on Sade.
Whispers spread fast. The Unholy Trinity, a trio of powerful girls with their own dark reputations, circle her with dangerous curiosity. Persephone draws her in, even as every hallway seems to hide another secret. Partnering with Baz, Elizabeth’s best friend, Sade searches for answers the police seem unwilling to find.
When a student turns up dead, the mystery deepens into something far more sinister. Alfred Nobel Academy isn’t just hiding its past—it may be burying its students too.

About the book
"A perfect military fantasy: brutal, complex, human and impossible to put down." - Tasha Suri, author of Empire of Sand
In an epic fantasy unlike any other, two women clash in a world full of rebellion, espionage, and military might on the far outreaches of a crumbling desert empire.
Touraine is a soldier. Stolen as a child and raised to kill and die for the empire, her only loyalty is to her fellow conscripts. But now, her company has been sent back to her homeland to stop a rebellion, and the ties of blood may be stronger than she thought.
Luca needs a turncoat. Someone desperate enough to tiptoe the bayonet's edge between treason and orders. Someone who can sway the rebels toward peace, while Luca focuses on what really matters: getting her uncle off her throne.
Through assassinations and massacres, in bedrooms and war rooms, Touraine and Luca will haggle over the price of a nation. But some things aren't for sale.

Mash Cassidy has two problems: his pack wants him mated, and he absolutely refuses to settle down.
The Good Boys Club
LGBTQIA+ · Romance · Gay Romance · Paranormal Romance · RomCom
Our take
Mash Cassidy has two problems: his pack wants him mated, and he absolutely refuses to settle down. His solution? Convince his best friend to fake-mate him through Harvest Fest. Cian agrees. He always does. The only issue is that Cian has been in love with Mash for years, and pretending might be harder than telling the truth. Slow burn, fake dating, werewolves, and feelings that refuse to stay hypothetical.
Choose your retailer
About the book
Mash Cassidy, smooth-talking werewolf and notorious ladies’ man, has been running from his responsibilities, and his pack, for fifteen years. But with Harvest Fest only weeks away, Alpha’s ordering him to return home, and she won’t take no for an answer. It’s time for him to grow up and mate with a nice werewolf girl. In fact, Alpha already has one in mind.
But Mash wasn’t built for settling down, and in a desperate move to keep Alpha off his back, he drags his wolf shifter best friend Cian into another of his harebrained schemes: pretend to be a werewolf and pose as his fake-mate for two whole months.
What could go wrong? They’re just friends, and Mash definitely hasn’t been developing unusual feelings for him…
Cian Barker, hipster wolf shifter and tech whiz, has been in love with his best friend since the day they met at uni. It doesn’t matter that Mash is straight and completely unobtainable, Cian is just happy to have him in his life.
But when Mash asks him to be his fake-mate during the family’s Harvest Fest celebration, Cian might have reached his limits with how far he’ll go for Mash. At least until he’s faced with his favourite pair of puppy-dog eyes. The ones he just can’t seem to resist.
It’ll be fine. Cian can pretend—he’s been pretending for their entire friendship. Besides, it’s not like Mash will ever love him back…
The Good Boys Club is an MM best-friends-to-lovers paranormal romance and the second in the Mythical Mishaps series of interconnected standalones. Expect the usual silliness, slow burn, lots of pining, plenty of scent marking, and a tonne of praise for the bestest boy in the Eight and a Half Kingdoms.

About the book
Jesse
After years of working my butt off, I’m finally living the life I always wanted. I have a job I love, friends who’ve become family, and I’m enjoying the freedom of being single.
Then Sebastian, my childhood rival, moves back to town and my perfect life is thrown into chaos. We’ve always hated each other, but now there’s something else between us. Something wild and primal, something that wants to make Sebastian submit as much as it wants to claim him.
Hooking up with the guy I hate is probably the stupidest thing I’ve done, and that’s saying a lot. But it’s hard to remember why it’s a bad idea when he’s the only person who’s ever made me lose control, and the only man I can’t stay away from.
Sebastian
Retiring from the music industry at twenty-five wasn’t in my long-term plans. Neither was moving home after being away for seven years. But here I am with a serious case of burnout and no idea what I want to do with the rest of my life.
I hoped that moving back would give me a chance to shed my public persona and just be Sebastian again, but that doesn’t seem to be happening any time soon.
The only thing in my life that makes sense is my old rivalry with Jesse, the guy I’ve hated since we were eight. Arguing with him is as exhilarating as it is familiar, and no one is more surprised than me when a fight leads to our first kiss, then more.
Jesse may be the most annoying person I’ve ever known, but the tension between us is too strong to ignore. I hate that I want him but love that he can’t stay away from me either.
Jesse and Sebastian’s book is an enemies-to-lovers romance featuring a mechanic with a secret, and a retired musician looking for his place in the world. You can expect hurt/comfort, forced proximity, ‘there’s only one bed’, found family, lots of heat, tons of dirty talk, primal play, hate s*x, and fighting as these two childhood rivals figure out that sometimes what you need has been in front of you all along. It is the first book in the exciting new Legacy Mechanics series but can be read as a standalone.

Our take
A blackout wedding in Vegas becomes impossible to ignore when a stranger arrives claiming to be your husband. In Zero Pucks, former NHL player Tucker wakes to discover he married Amedeo during a night fueled by grief and bad decisions. As they navigate trauma, disability, and unexpected tenderness, this M/M romance pairs found family warmth with a strangers to lovers journey toward healing.
Choose your retailer
About the book
Sometimes what happens in Vegas shows up at your door two weeks later to tell you that he’s the guy you married while you were blackout drunk.
Tucker:
Waking up alone in a strange hotel room, missing my prosthetic legs, and no memory of what happened the night before is not how I wanted to spend my estranged twin’s bachelor party trip.
Yet there I was, legless and zero idea how I got there. Or who I spent the night with. Which is…not great.
Though I suppose that trauma lies somewhere between losing my legs in a car accident which killed my career in the NHL, and my brother running off with my fiancée.
So, in the grand scheme of things, not the worst weekend I’ve had.
But while I’m no longer a bitter, angry man, I’m also maybe—kind of, sort of—not the most well-adjusted person on the planet. And that shows when an adorable, dimpled, wild-haired man shows up at my door to tell me that the hazy night in Vegas had a very specific ending:
At some point, after several chocolate cake shots and trauma dumping, Amedeo and I found Elvis and got married.
The easy thing to do would be to make sure the marriage isn’t valid. But when have I ever made anything in my life easy? Especially since the incentive is getting to keep this man in my orbit.
We might have had the weirdest beginning of any married couple, but now I’m feeling strangely determined to give us both the happily ever after we deserve.
Zero Pucks is the first book in a rom-com, strangers to lovers, MM romance sled hockey series. It features a ride or die hockey found family, snarky best friends, the Team Dad who refuses to approve of bad decisions, why sled hockey is way more terrifying than standing hockey, awkward first dates, steaming hot first kisses, and a Golden Retriever of an Alternate Captain determined to give them both the happiest of ever afters.
