  Vampires and werewolves are natural enemies. Therefore, Andre has no regrets about killing Raúl, the Alpha of the Wintermane pack, who plans to attack the Crimson Cathedral nightclub, revealing the presence of vampires to the human world.
  
  
  When Sand learns of his brother's murder, he debates seeking revenge because he hates Raúl, who backed their father when he forced Sand out of the pack for being gay. Then, he discovers that Estebe, the new Alpha, plans to continue Raúl's mission.
  
  
  Things come to a head when Sand, a bodyguard, escorts a client's daughter to the nightclub and the club's owner tells Andre to find out why Sand is there. Despite their differences, instant lust drives Andre into Sand's bed-but not before they agree to work together to stop Estebe.
  
  
  Can they successfully end Estebe's existence -- and survive? And, will their relationship stand a chance as lust turns to an attraction that defies the belief that they are supposed to be mortal enemies?

  Laurel Darby is no stranger to hard work, but most folks can't see past her family’s name and wealth. Having built her quilt shop from the ground up, she knows how hard it is to keep a business running. But that doesn’t leave much time for a relationship, and the last thing on Laurel's mind is unraveling herself and disrupting her carefully constructed life. 
  Fresh out of long-term relationship hell, Dallas Hayes has nothing but a dream and the sweat equity for a fresh start. Opening her bourbon lounge is the only thing on her mind. But love? Nope, she won't go down that rabbit hole again. 
  As Dallas works to build both her bar and her sense of home, she unintentionally irks Laurel and the customers next door. But it's Laurel's gentle teasing and unexpected warmth that keep Dallas on her toes. With every fiery jab and kind smile, Dallas finds herself caught somewhere between frustration and fascination. 
  With their feelings deepening, neither Laurel nor Dallas expects a new threat to appear, one that could destroy everything. With old wounds and new obstacles in their path, can they hold onto each other and fight for the future they both deserve?

  Totally fake marriage. Very real feelings. 
  When my hockey teammate, the recently widowed Tanner Chance, loses his job, he and his four kids are left with no medical coverage. 
  So I suggest a wild idea: get married and put his family on my company’s insurance plan. 
  It’s supposed to be a marriage on paper only. But this being a small town, our nuptials accidentally go public. Now, we have to play house in order to make this scheme believable. 
  Suddenly, I’m trading my swanky highrise for a cramped split-level and refereeing sibling squabbles while attempting to make a meatloaf. 
  Goodbye bottomless mimosas. Hello bottomless piles of laundry. 
  I’m also sharing a bed with my closest friend, the one guy I promised myself I’d never cross a line with…and using all my willpower to keep that promise. 
  The more time I spend married to Tanner, the harder it is to remember what’s fake. Because every time he smiles at me, every time he calls me his husband, it feels a little too real. 
  If our ruse is exposed, I could lose not just my career, but the man and family I never knew I wanted. 
  Scoring Chance is a single dad, friends-to-lovers, marriage of convenience MM romance. It’s book 2 in The Comebacks series, about a team of former hockey champions recapturing their magic (and finding love) in a local amateur league—but it can be read as a standalone. Whether they win or lose, there’s always a post-game beer.

  This tenth-anniversary edition of Kate Cayley's award-winning collection includes three new stories.
  A young mother intrudes into the life of an older woman, thinking she knows what's best. An academic becomes convinced that he is haunted by his double. Two children spy on their supposedly criminal neighbours. A man enables his cousin's predatory impulses out of loyalty, and a circus performer dreams of a perfect wedding. These characters fail despite their best intentions and continue on despite their failures.
  The stories in How You Were Born, each more incisive and devastating than the last, examine the difficult business of love, loyalty, and memory. Sharing the bizarre and tragi-comic of life—whether in present-day Toronto or in small towns of the early 20th century—Cayley champions the importance of connections, even when missed or mislaid, and the possibility of redemption.

  Sequel to Watching Cars Go By
  
  Silke has newly professed her love for Lauren, but her happiness is short-lived when Lauren's grown daughter moves back home to recuperate after an accident. Lauren, overwhelmed with working at night and taking care of Kayla during the day, struggles to make time for Silke and their fledgling relationship. Silke hates her sudden roommate status and soon resents Kayla. Still Lauren stubbornly refuses to come out to her daughter.
  
  
  Sexy Ana, who still carries a torch for Silke, is more than willing to come to the rescue. Frustrated by her home situation, Silke enjoys hanging out with the chivalrous Ana. Suddenly Alex from Germany shows up and claims she and Silke are still an item. Aware it was Silke's life choices that broke them up and not the lack of mutual attraction, Alex manipulates her into spending time together. After all, it's hard to ignore an ex who knows how to push all your buttons, especially if you've never stopped caring.
  
  
  Against all odds, Lauren and Silke prevail. Lauren even accompanies Silke to Germany for a family crisis. Watching her niece reminds Silke how much she wants her own baby, and she is devastated when Lauren is perfectly fine with having been there and done that already.
  
  
  Can Silke and Lauren overcome their biggest roadblock and somehow compromise? Or has Silke's baby wish become a deal breaker?
