Sinopse

It seems the Halloween season starts earlier and earlier each year. I first began noticing Halloween candy in stores in July (!), and every time I turned around since then, there were more decorations, party favors, and treats at hand. Is it any wonder I’ve been wandering around the house humming “The Monster Mash” for the last few weeks?
 
Our 108th issue kicks off a truly epic celebration of the season, with a pair of nightmarish treats. You will never look at seagulls the same way after experiencing Adrian Cole’s “The Birds Are Back in Town.” And Lin Carter’s “Keru” is a tale that would have been right at home in Weird Tales in its heyday.
 
“The Power of Evil,” by Alan Orloff, is not a supernatural tale, but futuristic suspense (thanks to Acquiring Editor Michael Bracken), so it’s doing double duty this time. And the grisly-sounding “A Burn That Reaches Bone,” by Karen Odden is not a mad slasher tale, but a tale of a horrible crime that reaches through the generations. (Thanks to Acquiring Editor Barb Goffman for this one.) And, of course, there are traditional mysteries, too—I found a rare Victorian-era mystery by Australian writer Ernest Favenc while I was browsing issues of Australian Town and Country Journal looking for mysteries by Mary Fortune (my favorite classic Australian mystery writer) and couldn’t resist adding it to this issue. Plus we have a detective novel featuring Nick Carter and a solve-it-yourself puzzler from Hal Charles.On the science fiction and fantasy side, we have another great Norman Spinrad story, a classic by Robert F. Young, and the first entry in the Pillsworth & Toffee series by Charles F. Myers (we have more coming up). Fun stuff.

    They came in and wiped out my pack, leaving me an orphan at the age of fifteen, but then Alpha Declan came in and saved me, bringing me into his own pack. I've been living with the Storm River pack for three years now, training and learning how to fight, so when the time comes, I can kill the Alpha that took my family and pack away from me.But what do you do when you start to fall for the one who saved you to begin with? The one that took you under his wing when you had nothing left? The one who kissed you first, and made you feel things that you didn't feel before? I shouldn't be with him; he isn't my mate. I've yet to scent my mate, but Declan is too delicious to pass up. He's already saved me once, but can he save me from falling for him when I know my Goddess-given mate is out there somewhere?
     
    I feel us moving and then I’m being placed on the hood of his Tesla. This puts me so my core is up against his hardness, and oh my Goddess, he feels monstrous! It’s a good thing that I’m not his mate, because I don’t think I’d be able to take it. It doesn’t stop me from rubbing against it, though, as tingles begin to form, and I moan.“That’s it, sweetheart, rub yourself against me and come for me. I want to see what you look like when you fall apart in my arms.” His command washes over me and I come instantly.

    A star quarterback with a legacy to uphold. A fiery activist with a past to avenge. The line between love and hate is about to snap.
     
    Caelen "Cael" Holt has spent his life a pawn in his family’s game, a golden boy with a secret. He's a star quarterback with a cold exterior, and the only thing he craves is to escape. But his carefully constructed world is shattered when a campus protest pits him against the one person who sees right through his carefully crafted mask: Rhys Thorne.
     
    Rhys Thorne is driven by a need for justice, fueled by a deep-seated anger at the company that ruined his family. He sees Cael as the physical embodiment of the corruption he despises. So when fate forces them into the same dorm room, their rivalry explodes into a war of words, turning their shared space into a tense battlefield.
     
    But in the quiet hours after the shouting, something else begins to simmer beneath the surface—a raw, undeniable attraction that defies logic. As their feud becomes a public spectacle, Rhys and Cael are forced to choose between the roles they’ve always played and a partnership that could change everything.
     
    Step into the visceral, high-stakes world of Brutal Desires, a story where genuine connection can break down the most deeply ingrained biases. Told in a dual first-person point of view, you'll feel the sting of their witty insults, the heat of their rising tension, and the raw, vulnerable power of their love. For fans of enemies-to-lovers romance who crave a story with a powerful political backdrop, this book is for you.
     
    Will their brutal pasts be their undoing, or will they finally find a future worth fighting for? Find out in Brutal Desires.
