Princess Madivia is broken. Her fae magic doesn’t work, her illness will kill her, and nobody knows she exists. So when the gods select her to leave her tower in the Ice Court and train to be a Valkyrie at Featherblade, she is sure they’ve made a terrible mistake. So is every other fae at Featherblade. All except the disgraced fire-fae Valkyrie, Kain. His burning gaze never leaves her. Nobody knows what he did to have his wings taken away, but he is as dangerous as the deadly world Maddy has been drawn into.

Falling for one of my oldest friends was never in my plans. And falling for two of them at the same time? Right. Because I have time for a complication like that in my life. Until an injury sidelines me, making me the center of attention for both men. And as they take turns doting on me, it becomes clear my new Daddies aren't just interested in me, but each other as well. It isn't long before the simmering tension between the three of us boils over into a scorching hot passion.

If you want a lifetime of wisdom, welcome to Wisdom of Age.

As a Tremblay brother, I’m loyal to my wolf clan. Which means that I have a set of rules to follow. Rules that wouldn’t let me quench my desire for Michelle. For one, she’s human. Absolutely forbidden. Secondly, I’m her boss. And third, making a move on her would mean betraying my pack. This is nothing but torture. Having to look the other way when she’s all I obsess over. I want to make her mine. Claim every inch of her delicious curves. But when my obsession gets the better of me...I have to pay for what I’ve done.

Reyna was born a valuable slave to the Gold Court, imprisoned her whole life in a glittering palace by sadistic, greedy fae. When the palace is raided, she takes her opportunity to escape.

Hedone and Hercules have decisions to make, decisions that may force Evadne to act. Will Eryx be there to help her? Or will his loyalty to his captain and his crew win out? In the next bout of Trials, our heroes will face some of the most vicious creatures they’ve seen so far, deadly riddles, a demigod to rival them all.

In order to save my only friend’s life, I am being forced to complete three Trials set by the Lords of War; Pain, Panic, and Terror. And I have to work with the most arrogant, stubborn, untrustworthy jerk in Olympus to do so. Ares not only won’t teach me how to use my powers, he also keeps trying to steal them. And he's crossed a line that should be unforgivable.

After risking their lives completing the Trials set by Hera, Athena, and Artemis, Lyssa and the crew of the Alastor now need to face the twisted imaginations of three more gods and hope they can prevail. With nine Trials still to go any of the four crews are still in with a chance of winning the most coveted thing in Olympus - immortality. And some of them will do absolutely anything for an infinite life.

So, it turns out Titan power is pretty awesome. Only I can’t control my new gift and that’s not only embarrassing but also dangerous.

Icarus says we should lay low for a while but every time Professor Neos flashed me those red eyes I want to challenge him. And when students start collapsing to the ground with their souls stolen, I don’t have a choice but to act.

Hey, I'm Jamie, a 29-year-old trans guy from the UK. I've been transitioning for 12 years now after realising I was trans (by accident!) at sixteen years old. I knew I was a boy since the age of four, but realised whilst growing up that I was different. It was only in my teens that I found the words to express who I was and what I needed to do. Since then, I've been on testosterone for more than a decade - I know, I can't believe it either - I've also had top and bottom surgery and legally changed my sex, so I know a few things about the transitioning process and being trans!

Sound interesting? The author thinks so too! Listen to Court of Greed and Gold and experience the second book in the Shadow Bound Queen series.

I’m supposed to be the last of my kind, all-powerful, and marked by prophecy for greatness. But, something, somewhere, must have gone wrong, because I have no power or greatness. The prophecy must be about my sister, the only other living being with our kind's blood in her veins, but she's been in a magical sleep for eight years and is slowly turning to stone. I will do anything to save her, but the answers I need are inside Poseidon’s underwater palace. The fiercely powerful ocean god rules his realm with brutal efficiency, and nobody is ever allowed to get close to him.

What if Hercules wasn’t the hero everyone thought he was? His daughter, Lyssa, knows just how cruel he can be. But she has left that life behind, and now her battered smugglers ship, the Alastor, flies under everyone’s radar - just how she likes it. The Gods have a different plan for her though. They’re about to break one of their only rules and grant a worthy hero a chance to win the ultimate prize - immortality. And Lyssa and Hercules are two of the lucky heroes offered the chance to compete. Twelve gods, 12 realms, 12 trials.

I lost one mate, I couldn’t stand to lose another. I just wish I could figure out how to resist him. Get this complete boxset including: Dark and Forbidden Luca's Secret Baby (As a girl from the wrong side of the tracks and the wrong lion pride, I’m used to scraping by.), Miguel's Secret Cub (I was just a teenager when I ran away from the pride.), Curse Breaker Friends to Lovers ( Two years ago my mate was killed by an enemy alpha.), and Sara's Dark Secret (When I killed my abusive mate to protect myself and my daughter...).

We have to follow a series of clues across some of the most dangerous parts of Olympus, to try and free a Titan trapped by the Lord of the Olympians himself. And even more confusing, my absent mom has finally decided to show up. It's not going to be easy, but it's the only way we can save the souls that were stolen by the demon that I let loose. My mistake cost innocent people their souls. And now I'm the only one who can fix it.

One thing I did not expect when spending the night with the devil, was waking up the next day with wings on my back. But then, I also didn’t expect to be caught up in a second murder - this time of somebody I actually know, or to be attacked by creatures from hell, and to find out my parents were keeping an epic secret from me. All this might be tolerable, if I only could fall into Nox’s arms and let him take me to that place that only he can.

A Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist reveals the little-known story of the Union soldiers from Alabama who played a decisive role in the Civil War, and how they were scrubbed from the history books.

I lie for her. I hunt for her. I kill for her. And above all, I betray my mission for her. Our training taught me to be a sociopath. A machine. A pawn.

Nothing has gone to plan. Not a single thing. I entered Poseidon’s palace with one intention—steal a legendary ship and sail it to the darkest, most dangerous depths of the ocean, to try to save my sister. And now I am fighting for my life in a series of deadly trials designed for water gods and sea monsters, not broken, powerless nymphs. I was prepared for risk. I was prepared for danger. I was not prepared for Poseidon, or the soul-deep connection I have with him.
