Bennett Reynard needs one thing: to speak to the Rougarou about starting a union for shifters in New York City before the delegation arrives. When his dirigible finally lands in Louisiana, he finds the Rougarou is gone and in his stead is his handsome son, Theo, who seems to care for everyone but himself. Hoping he can still petition the Rougarou, Bennett stays only to find he is growing dangerously close to Theo Bisclavret.

Assuming his father's place has salted old wounds, but when a stranger arrives offering to help, Theo knows he can't say no, even if Mr. Reynard makes him long for things he had sworn off years ago. As rivals arrive to challenge Theo for power and destroy the life Bennett has built, they know they must face their greatest fears or risk losing all they have fought for. With secrets threatening to topple their worlds, can Theo and Bennett let down their walls before it's too late?Ver livro
My life has never been normal. Raised by a survivalist, taught how to endure anything, I've learned to rely on myself. To keep my head down—to mind my own business. That all changes when I hear the screams. There, in that filthy alley, I thought I was pulling Emmeline out of the darkness and toward safety, but it turns out, she was pulling me in. My new friend's world collides with my own, and they couldn't be more different. Where I spend my days alone, she rarely can. Not with four brooding brothers hellbent on her protection, watching over her every move. Guardians that set their sights on me, who want to claim me as their own. Theirs is a world of violence and bloodshed, of teeth and fangs. Monsters lurk in the shadows, just waiting for their chance to strike. A sane person would be terrified, but even as danger closes in around us, I know without a shadow of a doubt that they're bigger threats than the ones they tell me I should fear. To protect their family, they'll become the monsters of legends and myths. The question is, if I'm supposed to be their salvation, does that mean I'm even more cursed than they are? To save us all, am I willing to damn myself? Contains mature themes.Ver livro
When the Moon Fell by Morrison Colladay is a forgotten gem of early science fiction, a haunting and imaginative tale of cosmic catastrophe and human resilience.

Narrated with gravitas and heart by Judd Bonham, this speculative classic invites listeners into a vision of the end—and the beginning—of the world as we know it.Ver livro
Portlock’s secrets are about to explode. After everything that went down in Chrome Mine, I’m starting to fear that I may never see my Sidnee again because the Sidnee I’ve been left with – well, she’s downright scary. Just as we try to catch our breath, calamity strikes again: the mayor’s son-in-law is murdered. Suspicion is being thrown around like confetti, and those in the frame include the mayor himself and the usually mild-mannered Sidnee. To make matters worse, a couple of teenage girls have vanished – no clues, no witnesses and no explanation. And it appears they might not be the first to be snatched. As if I needed one more thing to juggle, Connor’s father, the Vampire King of America, sends a team to interfere in our investigation. One of the girls is a rare, born vampire and the king has given us an ultimatum: find her … or he’ll come knocking. I am absolutely not ready to meet the in-laws, especially not the terrifying, homicidal sort who sees hybrids like me as something to exterminate. Connor is falling apart, the case is slipping through my fingers, and our happily-ever-after is looking further away than ever… Dive into this fast-paced urban fantasy series if you love mystery, humour, found family, and a slow-burn romance.Ver livro
