Summary: What happens when a four-month fellowship turns into the love Diego never expected to find? Diego Torres came to Cape Town for a four-month marine biology research fellowship. He expected long days by the ocean, new discoveries, and a temporary adventure far from home. He did not expect his university housing to fall through before he even cleared customs—or to end up living in a cottage behind a Kalk Bay dive shop. Sipho Buthelezi has one rule: never fall for someone with a return flight. Visitors leave. That’s why he keeps his distance. But Diego is different.

Before either of them can stop it, a temporary living arrangement turns into late nights, stolen kisses, and a love neither man planned for. With Diego’s departure getting closer every day, old fears threaten everything they’ve built. Sipho has spent years protecting himself from the heartbreak of people who leave.

Summary: What kind of person inherited a castle - or bought one, maybe - and then just...left it to crumble? Damon, one of the original Hellhounds, has been living in a rental cottage in the shadow of a ruined castle for the past three years. His peace and quiet is threatened when he receives notice that the owner of the property – who Damon has never met – was coming to do renovations with a view to selling the property. Little did Damon know that the owner’s arrival meant a lot more than thinking about somewhere else to live. Meanwhile, what on Earth was going on with his hound? He doesn’t know what we are to each other. We need to figure out what he is first and then find a way to tell him without scaring him away. We’ve got the time. Redford Stone, a gargoyle who ran the FBI task force related to paranormal crimes, is suffering from burnout. Needing something to do with his time off, he decides to head to a castle he’d inherited five years before, planning to do some renovations and probably sell the place. His plans are thrown into complete disarray when he arrives at the castle to hear the stones singing. So much for simply staying for three months and going back to work. “You…” Damon couldn’t form a coherent sentence. “You were courting me? By having me lug rocks around?” Hellhounds can’t tell their mate from sight or scent, so Damon and Redford dance around each other, neither one of them saying anything that might scare the other one off. In the meantime, the castle is hiding secrets of its own – historical secrets with very modern day repercussions. When Redford and Damon accidentally “awaken” the castle, the threats and benefits both become very real. Dance in the Stones is book 9 in the Hellhound Collar series. While it can be read as a standalone, reading previous books in the series – in particular Magical Beast (Book 7), where we met Damon for the first time, and More than Words (Book 8), where Redford was introduced - would give more context for the secondary characters.

Summary: Oh, FFS. Apparently we’re doing this again because nobody wants to give up this life. Not Ricardo, who’s bored out of his skull because he hates being retired. Not August, who won’t stand for anyone but his husband outranking him on RateYourHit. Not the authors, who can’t resist another round of explosions and shenanigans with our favorite hitmen. So… here we go again. After witnessing—but not participating in—an ill-fated art heist, August and Ricardo are restless, itching for another taste of the chaotic life they once knew. When an opportunity presents itself, they take the gig. It’s just one hit for old time’s sake, and the job itself is pretty straightforward. Why not? But of course it doesn’t take long for things to go sideways. Now instead of just coming out of retirement for funsies, they’re in way over their heads. And this time, they might not be able to get out alive. Business vs. Pleasure is just further proof that we jinxed ourselves when we called Hitman vs. Hitman a standalone, and that we have absolutely zero willpower when it comes to August and Ricardo. Is it the final installment? Like for real this time? We have no idea.

Summary: He came for the job. He left owned. Alex Mercer was built, not raised. His father conditioned him from before he can remember to want nothing, need no one, and never bend — and it worked. At thirty he was the golden heir to a powerful Los Angeles law firm, untouchable and unreachable, dispatched to Las Vegas to bring the chaotic Global Combat League to heel. Instead, he met Jack Doyle. Compact. Battle-hardened. Close-cropped dark hair just beginning to gray. The cold, calculating stare of a man who built an empire from nothing and never learned how to lose. One command from across the desk and Alex's perfectly tailored world began to unravel — jacket, tie, shirt — every step an exit offered and refused, every refusal a choice Alex made with open eyes. What started as an interview ended with Alex stripped bare on Jack's desk, claimed so thoroughly he could still feel it weeks later. What started as a contract became something neither of them had a name for. And what started in Las Vegas wasn't going to stay there. Then his father found out. Richard Mercer did not build his son to belong to somebody else. The price of saving Jack's league is Alex himself. And when a father sets out to remove the part of you that can love a man, he does it slowly, and he calls it love the entire time. By the time Jack calls again, Alex is the best attorney in the sport and there is nobody home behind his eyes. Some men break you. Jack owned him. And the worst part? Alex let him.
