About the book
She’s the one they shouldn’t want—and the one they’ll never let go.
Five years ago, she rejected them. Five years ago, she ran. But they’ve found her, and this time, there’s no escape.
Born a Nexus shifter, her life has always been defined by three unshakable truths: her parents despised Nexus shifters, everyone was taught to fear her, and they were right to. She’s a monster, bonded to five souls she rejected at the mating ceremony before vanishing with her parents.
Now, dragged back to the remote pack community, she’s a prisoner of the very men she betrayed. They enforce their rules with unrelenting dominance, keeping her under constant watch while the tension between them threatens to explode.
Onyx, the charmer with deadly alpha instincts hidden behind polished suits.
Aleksander, whose hazel eyes conceal dangerous secrets—and a thirst for ruin.
Hollis and Rhodes, twins who capture hearts with ease, but one is determined to shatter hers.
And Finnegan, the most lethal of them all, harboring a hatred that burns brightest.
They are powerful, dangerous, and unyielding, alphas blessed by the Wolf Gods. She is the reject who destroyed their bond, their hearts, and their trust. But what they don’t see is the monster within her, a darkness clawing to the surface, waiting for the moment to unleash its fury.
If they push her too far, it will awaken. And when it does, there may be nothing left to save.
STARLIGHT MATES is a dark romantasy full of irresistible tension and dangerous desire. Dive into a story teeming with growly alpha shifters, rejected mates, forced proximity, and electrifying “touch her and die” moments. This is a tale where love is fierce, bonds are unbreakable, and monsters lurk just beneath the skin.

One sarcastic joke.
How to Fall in Love with a Demon
Romance
Our take

How to Fall in Love with a Demon by Lola Glass (4.4 stars on Amazon!) is a spicy paranormal rom-com where a coffee shop girl ends up magically bound to a demon—and somehow liking it.

Choose your retailer
About the book
It was just a sarcastic “sure, I’ll be your mate”...
Next thing I know, I’m magically bound to a dangerously hot demon—forever.
Turns out he drinks lust to survive, which makes me his immortal snack. Oh, and he just got out of prison. Because I said yes, I’m now legally responsible for keeping him on the straight and narrow—or we both go back behind bars.
So now we’re living together, supervised by a dragon shifter sent to make sure our marriage is “real,” while I try not to fall for the smirking, sinfully gorgeous demon who’s suddenly very into making it work.
Too bad he’s irresistible. And too good at being bad.
How to Fall in Love with a Demon is a steamy, laugh-out-loud paranormal rom-com with a guaranteed HEA.

About the book
Some monsters just need to be tamed.
The Dark Wolf God was a monster of legend—a shifter so powerful that he could lay waste to the world and make alphas bow before him. I didn’t believe he was real. Then four weeks ago, he attacked my pack and nearly ended my life.
Now he’s claimed me.
When a war with the fae threatens his realm, he tears me from my world and makes me his captive. He believes I have the power to free him from a curse, but unless I figure out what kind of magic I have, he’ll never let me go. He’s my enemy, but there’s no denying the heat between us or the bond that ties us together.
Should I defy the monster, or could the man behind the beast be redeemed?
If you love alpha heroes with dark souls, tortured pasts, and an obsession with the woman who could bring them to their knees, sink your teeth into this enemies-to-lovers paranormal/fantasy romance.
