At 45, Santa finally brought me the right guy for Christmas—until he turned into a bear.

Former Immortal Ops Agent Wheeler Summersbee has spent most of his life on the run from his own government. When he’d agreed to be a living test subject in their quest to genetically engineer the perfect super-soldiers, he never dreamed he’d come out the other side of the testing a gargoyle-vampire hybrid who craved blood and had a serious allergy to sunlight. So, when he finds himself trapped in what feels like eternal darkness, he abandons all hope. That is, until he hears the melodic voice of a mysterious woman. Could it be she’s his someone special?

Wereshark and former Immortal Op Cody Livingston has spent decades keeping his head down and staying off the grid. Ever since he volunteered to be part of a test group when the government attempted to create super soldiers, he’s been in a fight for his life and those of the men he sees as brothers - fellow Outcasts. You see, his own government turned against him when the DNA manipulation attempts didn’t go as planned.

Held prisoner in a remote testing facility in the middle of the Brazilian rain forest, subjected to torture and abuse, shape-shifter and alpha male Wilson Rousseau has long since given up hope of being rescued. Days blend together until he can’t help but long for death. But he is saved from his isolated hell by a female’s distress call and feels an instant connection to her.

Paranormal Security and Intelligence Operative Rurik Romanov has been put on light duty while he recovers from a brutal attack orchestrated by The Corporation and their genetically engineered hybrids. The alpha-male Russian bear-shifter is not exactly thrilled with his new assignment - babysitting a person of interest - but he’s a soldier, and an order is an order. The woman he’s tasked with keeping an eye on has ties to the very organization that left him injured in the first place.

Alpha-male, wolf-shifting druid sorcerer Duncan O’Caha has one regret in his immortally long life - letting a demon escape his clutches years ago. Memories of that night have haunted him for decades. When the nightmares of old surface once more, he wastes no time returning to the scene of the crime. Deep down, he knows the demon is back with a vengeance. This time, he plans to kill it - that is, if he can keep his head in the game and off the captivating young woman he finds in the small town that is full of dark secrets.

Vampire and Crimson Operative Bhaltair hasn’t always played for the side of good. He’s walked a fine line throughout his immortally long life and has very few regrets. He’s always had everything he’s ever wanted - that is, until Meena. As a human descendant of the master vampire he serves, Meena isn’t on the menu. That is, until he learns he’s in danger of losing her to another supernatural male.

Tiger-shifter Jonathon Reynell has spent a chunk of his immortal life serving his country. As an I-Op, his life revolves around the next mission - the next natural high. A soldier sent into the deadliest of combats, he didn't expect immortality to be an issue - to live on while everyone he knows and loves dies. When the toll begins to show and he finds himself at the bottom of another bottle, he decides to go back to his roots, back to his home to clear his head. Rock bottom is not where he expected to be when he found his mate with a rose in hand and his name on her lush lips.

Once a proud, fierce, alpha-male shifting operative with the Immortal Ops, Lance Toov finds himself under the thumb of an evil master vampire. Now a plaything, a god-like toy, he struggles with the tasks assigned to him. As his mind begins to break through the master vampire’s influence, a woman comes along who changes all the rules, and ups the stakes in the most interesting of ways. Is she his salvation or will she be his downfall?

Alpha gorilla shifter and former Immortal Operative Bane Antonov has spent years learning to master his beast side. But his temper is tested when two blasts from the not-so-distant past show up, claiming to want to help him find his mate. His hard-earned control shatters the minute he crosses paths with Galiena - a petite succubus who makes the alpha in him want to shout “mine”. Hunted by a mad man who wants to own her body, her powers, and her soul, Galiena needs his protection. Bane has to learn to set his beast free if he wants to keep his mate safe.

My name is Coran Burke. I'm unique among the fighters in the Black Squad. I'm more than human. My new assignment takes me to Dassuria, on the trail of an alien dragon lord. To beat him, I'll have to dig deep into my own past. At his side is a woman with deep entanglements in his dealings. Despite my misgivings, I can't get her out of my head. She's unearthed feelings I'd long ago abandoned and stirred something in me like no one has ever before done. She should be my enemy, but she appears to be the key to my survival - a puzzle I'm hesitant to solve.

My husband got into a fight and plunged off a bridge, leaving me to raise our two children on my own. After struggling for the last fourteen years, I pack up my kids and move in with my crazy old aunt in Carlton. I land a waitressing gig, and the moment I meet the head chef, his deep green eyes have me spellbound.

Paranormal Security and Intelligence operative and wolf-shifter Dougal "Striker" McCracken is known for his wild ways, and devil may care attitude. He's worked long and hard to build the persona. It disarms others and protects his emotions. The ones he keeps buried within. But try as he might, one woman sees through his antics. She's not afraid to call him on his bull or set him in his place when the need arises (which it often does). He's not sure how to act around the lass.

He caught me spying on my enemies and could've had me killed. Instead, he says he wants to help. To give me a future, freedom, and most of all, revenge. I want that, too. I want everything he has to give…even though I know he’s hiding something.

He's the stereotypical bad boy. Tatts, demons, and an attitude to match. And she's the bright ray of sunshine who pulled him from the darkness. They're best friends but they've never met. Their bond is unbreakable, despite living on opposite sides of the world. Until a flippant invitation to her birthday tempts Blake to go in search of his angel.

He protected me from danger and became my biggest threat. He's my defender. My savior. A brutally determined man with a cocky smirk and an equally cocky attitude. Broad. Strong. Focused. He seduces me with his flirtation. Warms me with his care. But he's hiding something. There are ulterior motives beyond his concern for my security. A thirst for more than my safekeeping.

They say love hurts—but they never mentioned it could make you bleed. His deceit was like wine. I drank it in. Let it intoxicate me. But he’s not the man I fell for.

What do you get when you mix a rock band as hot as Reckless Beat, women strong enough to capture several of the bad boys’ hearts, and a bet that sparks a competitive streak? Boundaries will be pushed, alcohol will be abused, and loads of sarcasm will be shared.

Nobody does sheltered quite like Alana. Raised on a secluded retreat for women, she knows a lot about emotional upheaval and very little about men. Which makes things awkward when she turns up to her first rock concert and the lead guitarist is peering down at her as if he's going to devour her for the encore performance.

Luca dragged me from hell and delivered me to salvation. At least that's what I thought. I hoped this would be a new life. A fresh start. But the pain followed. I'm certain the monsters did, too. I'm told it's paranoia. Trauma. PTSD.
