Daphne's busy geeking out over the awesome relics that just came into her museum. She's giddy at the prospect of getting to see them up close, until she drops one. In her defense, she was attacked...by a guy made of smoke. Things might have turned out really bad if she'd not been rescued by a stranger. A man who is also a dragon. Yup. Dragon. It turns out they are real and super hot. Azrael is also domineering and dangerous with the most toe-curling embrace. But passion will have to wait. Azrael needs Daphne to help him save the world.

I always thought if I had magical powers, life would be cake. Wrong. My fated mate is the enemy of my kind, I have days to figure out how to keep him from literally going up in smoke, and at any moment one of my magic's surges will shock my heart and strike me down. If I don't learn how to control my mage abilities pronto, I'm dead. I thought that portalling to hang with other mages would solve things, and I'd find some rad crone-like chick to help me train all epic style.

I'm a witch. Not a good one or a bad one, although according to the snooty wizards, I'm a stain upon their robes. But who cares what those snobs say? I've got a job to do: stop demons from infiltrating Earth and killing all the witches. Concentrating on my job is hard, though. First, the guy who's decided he's going to help me is hotter than Arizona in the summer. Second, demons are targeting witches such as me because, apparently, we're a tasty snack. Finally, the kitten I adopted has gone missing, and if I'm not mistaken, a demon stole it.

I'm not crazy. I'm a dragoness. Deka knows she's the center of the universe, but sometimes even the almighty sun has to act when her main squeeze disappears. Sure, Samael might not yet recognize that they're mates, but he will. She won't give him a choice.... First, though, she has to find him. An ancient enemy has captured her stud. It is going to be super dangerous getting him back. Awesome, because Deka thrives on risk - and will do anything for love.

Every dragon hoard starts with something...or someone. Tomas hates scientists, especially since they abused him in such vile ways. And yet, there is something about the doctor that calms his inner beast. Tomas craves her, even if she's human. A treasure for his collection, but can he convince her to stay in his secret aerie? Chandra is frightened by the dragon keeping her prisoner in his rocky tower. After what he's been through, who can blame him for the madness within?

Did you know geeky humans squeak when squeezed? Totally awesome. Adi thinks there are plenty of things that are awesome, such as gravy and cheese on fries, motorcycles that growl, oh, and the fact that she is a wicked dragon with a freakishly cool power. But do you know what's more awesome than all that? A certain geeky fellow in charge of the IT department for a medical lab situated in small-town hell. There is nothing small about Dexter, though.

Waking up not knowing his name probably isn't the worst thing that ever happened to him. I think. With no memories, he can't know for sure, and while he chases the thin threads of recollection, he must fight for his life in Lac'uus. Also known as the pit, Lac'uus is where those with vices come to play. Except he's not one of the buyers. Sold to pay a debt, Oblivion must fight if he wants to survive and prove cunning if he wants to escape. Or he could just stay.

Earth: a space pirate's dream when it comes to booty but not a good place to hide when bounty hunters come looking. Pulling up stakes means Rafe must leave his vintage trailer behind, but in the process he acquires a passenger, a mouthy female who seems to think she's calling the shots. She'll soon learn who's the captain. And it isn't Annabelle, his sassy ship.

Once upon a time, a girl loved a boy but married another man. What a mistake, especially since that man has been using her as part of his sick plot to experiment on shifters.

The people he cares about are in danger, and he'll do anything to protect them, but that struggle intensifies when the girl he never stopped loving is drawn into danger.

Don't mock Constantine's dog. Princess might weigh only six and a half pounds, but she's tough - so watch your ankles. Be warned: If she doesn't like you, then neither will Constantine. Except he kind of likes Aria, even though Princess would prefer to bury her in a hole. Could it be because Aria has secrets? Lots of them, and they all have to do with the danger stalking Bitten Point.

Hitting on the wrong woman finds Daryl regaining consciousness in a motel taped to a chair. Things were looking up - and not just below the belt. A sexy, cocoa-complexioned veterinarian - with killer curves - wants answers, and he's only too happy to give them to her, for a price, say a kiss, or something more, from those luscious lips. The problem is, Cynthia isn't the type to fall for flirty words and panty-dropping smiles. She tempts Daryl into helping her. Teases him into acting. Claims his heart without even trying.
