Obsession by Gemma Weir  

Obsession by Gemma Weir

As soon as I realized she existed, I lost the ability to look away. She was always destined to be mine. I’m Sebastian Lockwood; a king among men. And kings get to take what they want. My little bird disagreed. She fought me, and disobeyed me even though we both know she belongs to me. So I broke her, bent her to my will. I pushed too hard, loved too much and she ran from me.

A Girl Like Her by Talia Hibbert

Ruth Kabbah is okay with being an outcast. Between her autism, her comic book nerdery, and the whiff of scandal her small town can’t forget, Ruth will always be Ravenswood’s black sheep. Since she prefers silence and solitude to gossip and pub crawls, that suits her just fine—until Evan Miller comes to town. Ex-military man Evan is gorgeous, confident… and he’s Ruth’s new neighbour.

Bite Marks by Jenika Snow

Bite Marks by Jenika Snow

I was ruthless, brutal. A sociopath by all accounts. The leader of the American Vampire Clan, a male who all feared because I was merciless. And then I found my mate. Kayla. So fragile. Breakable. So human. I’d make her mine, and she’d hate me for it. I wanted to give her pain with pleasure, wanted to break her skin and lick up the blood I spilled… take Kayla into me like she’d take me into her. I’d have her surrendering to my needs. I’d give her my body but wouldn’t be able to give her my heart. How could I when it wasn’t something I had to offer, when I was nothing but a cold… Read more.
