  At Ashford University, power doesn’t belong to the professors. It belongs to the students. The ones with the right names. The right connections. The ones who decide what happens behind closed doors. Becky Dawson doesn’t belong there. She’s not rich. Not connected. Not invited. But she knows something’s not right. And every answer leads back to one man. Carrson Ashford. Cold. Controlled. Untouchable. They say he’s dangerous. They don’t know the half of it. Now Becky’s on the hunt. Studying him, following him, learning patterns he thinks no one sees. Because Carrson isn’t just a man. He’s a door. The heir to a world built on power, ambition, and survival. But Becky isn’t the only predator here. Carrson notices. Pushes to see if she’ll break. When he presses a blade to her throat, she doesn’t run. When he tells her to stay away, she steps closer. When he tells her to run, she waits to see if he’ll chase. That’s a problem. Because Becky Dawson? She was never supposed to be part of hi...

  He’s not the Easter Bunny. When Nora brings a fluffy white rabbit into her kindergarten classroom, she expects squeals, giggles, and maybe a science lesson about spring. What she doesn’t expect is for the rabbit to bite her. Or to shift into a six-foot-five, battle-wounded man with the face of a fallen god. What she  really  doesn’t expect… …is for him to be naked. He claims he’s a prince. He claims he’s being hunted. He claims there’s an enchanted sword powerful enough to save his kingdom — and he needs her help to find it. She thinks he’s insane. He knows she’s his. Bonded. Fated. Mates. Sorren is not from her world. He’s older. Wilder. Royal. And on the run. This Easter, the hunt begins. Not for eggs. For a throne. For survival. For  her . Because once a prince claims his mate… He doesn’t let her go. My Review Nora didn't plan to have a rabbit as a pet but the shop owner kind of pushed the rabbit upon her. You can imagine her surprise when one moment she is pett...

  I thought the worst thing that could happen on Valentine’s Day was getting stood up. I was wrong. When my date ghosts me and I decide to confront him, I don’t expect the night to spiral. I don’t expect danger and I definitely don’t expect the quiet, intense man from down the hall to step in and change everything. Damian Salvanti is calm under pressure. Terrifyingly observant. And far too willing to put himself between me and the world. The more time I spend with him, the more unsettling the truth becomes. He knows me. My routines. My fears. The things I want but never say out loud. Because Damian hasn’t just been watching out for me. He’s been watching me… Cupid Is a Liar   is a dark, fast-paced Valentine’s romance featuring an obsessive, morally gray hero who falls first, a heroine who chooses danger over safety, and a love story that blurs the line between devotion and obsession.
