All I did was try to save my best friend from making a huge mistake.... And now I'm saddled with an obnoxious werewolf who thinks I'm his wolfy wife. Did I mention that he's trapped in his wolf form until he believes I'm ready to say "I do"? Not exactly my idea of a good time.

All it took was one friendly barbecue to change everything.... Because when I showed up, I met him. Rocco. He says I'm his mate, which is basically a werewolf's instant wife. Honestly, I'm not all that opposed to the idea. Mostly because my instant-hubby comes with a house, and I'm a day away from being homeless.

When the fae came, their magic brought destruction that only stopped when we offered them the one thing they wanted: Wives for their kings. I was selected "at random". Sacrificed to the fae. But the sexy, infuriating king I'm paired with doesn't want my body or soul; he wants my help. Thanks to some kind of prophecy, he and his people think I can get them back home. Getting them back home will require taking some of the king's magic, which is unstable on the best of days and catastrophic on the worst. But the fae never give anything away for free, especially knowledge.

I should never have trusted my sisters. But I did, and it's changed everything once again. All of their lies have boiled to the surface, and now I'm forced to see them for what they really are: enemies. Life as I knew it has burned to ash and dissolved to nothing, but I can't back down now. It's not just my life at stake now—it's my mate's, my kingdom's, and our entire land's as well.

So there's a name for what I am. Ruby Wolf. And apparently, the rules don't really apply to us. For one, we come in pairs. The other half of mine is a douche named Ezra, and he's convinced that walking around naked is all it will take to talk me into choosing him. If we don't mate, I'll die. Period. End of story. But I won't betray Roman like that, so I'm dying slowly and painfully. Until he goes and signs up for the trials that can make him like me. The trials no one has survived in more than a hundred years.

Men matter. They just don’t think so. Virtually all men are deeply motivated to earn respect from others and to attain a sense of significance in their lives. But just as frequently, men carry messages of regret and shame just beneath the surface of the image they present. Our culture’s accusations that men are far too often self-absorbed frat party boys, bumbling fathers, or violent predators add weight to the internal doubts men carry. Noble Journey: The Quest for a Lasting Legacy addresses the root issues that cause these patterns.

My life has taught me to expect the unexpected. A serial killer rampaging through the New York Pack? Sure. Why not? But a serial killer who smells like me? That's a heck of a lot more than unexpected. With the Alphas of All poking around and my own Alpha on a rampage to figure out who the murderer is, it becomes a race to see who finds the truth first. I'll find the killer. Or the Alphas will find me. Either way, it's time to face the facts. There's a lot more to being "Wolfsbane" than suppressing my pack's shifting. And I'm pretty sure it starts with my freakishly red hair.

Betraying Kadoc changed everything. Now he's lost to his bloodlust, more beast than man, and the bond building between us has basically been reset. My effect on him has dwindled to nearly nothing, but I'm the only one who can calm him, so I've got to figure out something. When the massive bone dragon from the prison island recomposes sooner than expected and escapes, it's clear that I have to get Kadoc's bloodlust under control for the both of us. Because if I don't, our entire world might burn.

All it took was one look to end my life. Because one look is all it takes to trigger a werewolf's mate hunt. And when a wolf is hunting, he doesn't stop until his mate either dies or becomes a wolf too. Now I'm trapped in some guy's house, he's stuck in his wolf form, and there's no way out for either of us. Life as I knew it is over, but my fight to survive is only beginning.

I was supposed to seduce the dragon king, but before I could, he claimed me as his. Now I’m chained to him, trapped in an ancient mating process I neither want nor understand. I’ve got to get out, but there’s only one way to do that now—and it involves a much more permanent type of shackle. I have no idea what will happen if I agree to be the king’s mate, but one thing's for sure…my life will never be the same again.

Angie, 6, and sister Polly, 4, are utterly distraught when they arrive to stay with foster carer Cathy Glass. Their older half-sister Ashleigh has accused their father of something horrible, and the two young sisters have been removed from home to keep them safe. Cathy tries to comfort the girls...

All it took was one look to end my life...because one look is all it takes to trigger a werewolf's mate hunt.

Everything was supposed to be fine. Keaton was going to cure all of the Loup Mountain wolves and monsters, and we were going to head back to my old apartment for some space and alone time to figure out what we wanted to do about...well, everything. But then we realized we had bigger problems. The Loup Mountain werewolves think I'm their Alpha. Most of them are set on staying in Lyka Bay, even if it means living in the forest for the foreseeable future. The ones that aren't so set on forest-living want me dead, so that my gift will transfer to someone else.

We thought we were alone. Lyka Bay was supposed to be the only town of lycans. But...it's not. After the wolf I thought was wild shifts into a teenage boy, he leads me and Keaton to another town of half-cured lycans, and we're exposed to a whole new world. We thought the lycans were monsters...but there's something worse. And if we can't figure out how to cure them, there's a good chance they'll kill us.

Fate makes no exceptions. When stepping into a town full of werewolves like me for the first time in my life, I expected to be welcomed - or at least tolerated. Instead, I got hit in the face with a door. And then, found my dad's face on a dartboard in their diner. The people there need my help, but I can't help them unless I tell them who I am. And telling them who I am just might get me killed. The one connection I find comes in the form of a gorgeous, inked-up chemist who's the only person in town that doesn't hate me.
