I have twenty-one days until Christmas Eve to find a mate, or my bar goes to my power-hungry cousin. But my best friend has a plan: three blind dates, three weeks, three Alphas who make my Omega instincts scream. A brooding craft brewer with dangerous eyes and skilled hands, an intense outdoor adventurer whose feral smile promises wicked nights, and a dangerous security specialist whose darkness calls to mine. They say some Omegas need three anchors. I say I don't need anyone. Too bad my heat isn't listening.

Maggie Sinclair didn’t think she’d ever return to Deep River. The town held too many memories—of her mother’s death, her aunt’s cruelty, and of Ethan Moore, the man she once loved. The man she ran from. But when life in LA begins to feel unsafe, she retreats back to the small town she knows. The same place where Ethan’s also returned. And he’s more of everything she remembers—stronger, more protective, and even easier to fall for all over again. Former Navy SEAL Ethan Moore is home. But Deep River isn’t the town he once knew. People have started going missing—women, specifically.

I already had a life. A future. A man I'd promised forever to. But the night I found Chase Rhodes—bleeding, broken, and more lost than I was—everything changed. I wasn't supposed to let him in. Wasn't supposed to write music with him in secret beneath the moon. What started as a quiet escape became something unstoppable. Our songs caught fire, and now the whole world knows our names. Music has a way of pulling the broken together, even when the timing is impossible and the fallout inevitable. But some hearts don't settle. Some songs were never meant to stay quiet.

Rooms That Remember Light is a hauntingly beautiful meditation on memory, tenderness, and the quiet rituals that keep us alive through the night. In a nameless city hotel, a solitary night clerk tends the lost and found—not just of objects, but of human moments. Each chapter unfolds through a single forgotten item: a brass key, a disposable camera, a child’s red sock, a cracked snow globe. As he records these fragments, he begins to uncover something luminous beneath the ordinary—the way grief softens into gentleness, and how even the smallest acts of care can restore what time tried to erase.

They come back to the shore that once held everything: a crooked lifeguard tower, a boardwalk that sighs, a lighthouse that remembers storms better than names. In salt-stung mornings and long, forgiving light, the narrator gathers driftwood, sea glass, and old letters—small relics of a love finished but not failed. Across low tides and sudden tempests, the sea becomes witness and teacher: that silence can corrode or preserve; that breaking can be another form of shaping; that memory does not keep so much as transform.

For five hundred years, I believed everyone involved in my murder was dead. I was wrong. As the Librarian, I prided myself on remaining impartial in a world of quibbling arcanists, and watched wistfully as everyone around me got on with the business of living. I contented myself with living through my books, wishing I could remember what it felt like to be touched. To feel. Then they came. Six heirs who wouldn't stay away. They dragged me from my solitude and brought joy back to the Arcanaeum. I should've known that would come at a cost…

Aspen Parker's life can be summed up in one word. Unexpected. For instance, she never expected to become a mother at twenty. Her divorce at twenty-one really threw her off.
