Steel Princess

Keri Lake

After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things: I’d find the cure for what ravaged her—and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. 
 
Four years later, I receive an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, a secluded, prestigious school on an island off the coast of Maine. Legends say it’s haunted by the exiled souls of long-dead patients. 
 
But the ghosts aren’t even its most daunting peculiarity. 
 
Devryck Bramwell, known on campus as Doctor Death, is my devastatingly handsome professor. He loathes first-years like me—yet his dark gaze tells me all the ways he’d devour me if given the chance, and his stolen kisses burn with forbidden jealousy. Together, we’re a toxic disaster waiting to be exposed. 
 
And when the truth surfaces, we may be the ones to resurrect Dracadia’s most depraved secret.

There’s a girl. 
Beautiful. Popular. Fake. 
And also my obsession. 
My downfall. 
Probably my damnation. 
 
There’s a line between right and wrong, moral and immoral. 
And then there’s her. 
 
She makes me cross every limit with blood-coated fingers. 
She says she hates me. 
I say I hate her too - 
as I trap her, claim her. 
Make her mine.

Fifty Shades of Grey

Braedyn Winslow never expected to return to Starlight Grove—the town that took everything from her. Not after her best friend, the one who’d sacrificed so much for her, vanished without a trace. But with a young son to raise and a past that won’t stay buried, Brae is back…and determined to uncover the truth. 
 
She just didn’t count on the brooding, reclusive mountain man living next door. 
 
Dex Archer is the stuff of local legend—silent, rugged, and surrounded by whispers of his and his brothers’ violent father. But Brae sees through the scowl and his parentage to the man beneath: fiercely loyal, unexpectedly kind…and just dangerous enough to protect her when someone starts warning her off her search. 
 
The closer she gets to the truth, the harder it is to stay away from Dex. And as things get more perilous, Brae realizes the only person she can rely on is the one man who swore never to trust again. 
 
Only someone isn’t happy that Brae has been digging, and they’ll do anything to stop her. But Dex? He’ll do anything to save her, even slip back into the dark.

Across the Vanishing Sky

Brittanee Nicole

Prepare to fall in love amongst the wildflowers this spring. . . 
 
When aspiring pastry chef, Tally Darling, returns home to her family’s daffodil farm, the last thing she expects to find is a hot – half-naked – farmhand living in her childhood bedroom and running her late daddy’s business. 
 
Jesse Walker might be gorgeous but he’s also infuriatingly grumpy. Walker has no time for Tally and the feeling is mutual. 
 
That is, until Tally hears him moan over one of her signature caramel honey cupcakes. And then discovers how good it tastes when they kiss. 
 
As dewy April days turn into warm May evenings, Walker and Tally soon realise that there is a thin line between love and hate. But will their budding connection grow into something that lasts beyond one season?
