Unleashed: Volume 1 by Callie Harper

Declan

I never thought I’d see her again. The one I couldn’t have, the one I’d never forget. When I met her I had nothing, a lowly ranch hand working on her daddy’s land. She was the golden girl up on the hill, sexy as hell but beyond my reach. Now, like all my fantasies realized, she’s come to me for help.

I’m a bastard, ruthless in pursuit of my goals. My cold, hard drive has made me what I am today, amassing wealth and power. A good guy would help her, then send her on her way with a handshake and a smile. I’m not a good guy. I’m going to make a bargain and hold her to it.

One week. I’ll bail her out, pay off all her debts, but only after she gives herself to me completely. Seven days and seven nights of no-holds-barred submission to my dominance. I’m a demanding man with dark, relentless appetites. She’s unleashed the beast in me and I won’t stop until I possess all of her.

Kara

Six years ago he broke my heart. Now, with nowhere else to turn, I’ve put myself at his mercy. He’s the ultimate alpha male, commanding and controlling, and I’ve agreed to let him use me as his plaything for a week. I’m terrified of how he’ll take me, what he’ll make me do to serve all of his needs.

I’ve got to keep this week all business. It needs to stay a transaction, pure and simple, no emotions in play. I’m scared as hell about the power he wields over me.

Because I have a dirty secret. I’ve never gotten over him. I’ll fight hard to keep up all my defenses even as he melts them down. But the truth is that the thought of serving him has me panting, wet and practically begging for everything he has planned.

NOTE: Unleashed is a four-volume story launching the Beg for It series about the hot, alpha males in Declan's family and the battles they wage with the strong, sexy women who make them finally meet their match.

Desire by Simone Sowood

I accidentally landed on his lap

Leo

A stunning woman approaches me in my hotel lobby.

She's dressed for sin. And I'm a sinner.

The next thing I know, she flings herself across me in the backseat of my cab.

I didn’t want an escort tonight, but the look of her lying in my lap is impossible to resist.

Except she's not what I thought.

Young. Beautiful. Innocent. I can't get her out of my head.

She's not to be trusted. But one night in my arms won't do any harm.

Grace




Leo is way hotter than I’d anticipated when my boss dressed me up and sent me out to lure him into saving our company.

Sure he’s arrogant and rude but the air around us is electric. Unable to resist, I wear the red dress and give him my innocence.

It’s just one time but there’s something more between us, something real, I’m sure of it.

Until I end up pregnant and he disappears off the face of the earth.

Hung: A Billionaire Bad Boy Romance By Simone Sowood

When I decide I want something, I get it. And I want her.

Billionaire Lawson Heywood is ruthless and unforgiving with his business. He's earned the right to be arrogant. With his broad shoulders and panty-dropping charm, he can have any woman he wants.

He sets his sights on a young artist and gets one taste.

A sweet innocent kiss that tempts him for more.

But Skye Simmons isn't going to be a notch on his headboard. She's not interested in his sh*t.

Lawson has no intention of letting this angel slip through his fingers. He won't stop until he has her against his wall, panting and begging for more.

Out of Bounds by Hazel Kelly

I thought he was joking when he asked me out.

It was only after I laughed in his face that I realized he was serious.

But what was I supposed to do? It was my first day of high school, and I was already on the verge of a breakdown. The last thing I was prepared for was attention from boys like him… Popular boys with wide smiles and sparkly eyes and hair worthy of its own magazine spread.

I’d always been invisible to guys like that.

But the moment was fleeting, and as soon as I laughed at him, I went back to being invisible… as did the debilitating crush I had on him.

Looking back, though, that split second probably altered the course of my whole life.

The inappropriate, relentless feelings I had for him gave me insight into the angst and unrequited love that featured time and time again in the books I loved most, books that always seemed to be about people who were forced to hide their deepest desires.

I loved stories and words before that moment, but when Luke Hudson looked at me like I was the only girl in the room, everything changed. It made me feel like my life was a story, a story worth telling.

Of course, like all the most interesting fantasies, mine had to be kept secret, so I distracted myself by studying and sharing the stories of others.

But I never stopped wondering what would happen if I turned the page on my own.

I didn’t dare, though, because I knew there were only two ways in which the most wonderful love stories could end: ecstatic happiness or pitiless tragedy.

And I wasn’t sure I could handle either of them. So I kept my curious feelings to myself and did my best to keep Luke in the dark.

But like all athletes, his persistence was hard to compete with, and it seemed no matter where I tried to hide, he’d always come find me…and turn the light on.

Entrevista com o escritor E.C. Cassarino

Como surgiu a ideia de escrever "Berilo - Conto de Fadas" ?

Sempre tive essa ideia e depois de assistir e pesquisar muito sobre contos de fadas desde os clássicos até os menos conhecidos me veio a inspiração de criar um conto com versão voltada ao público  LGBT. 

Foi trabalhoso, pois queria escrever algo com Brasilidade, mas como os contos não faz referência á uma cultura específica segui o exemplo dos contos já existentes, ambientando a estória na idade média em um reino fictício.

Quanto tempo demorou para a história ficar pronta?

4 meses desde o momento da ideia até a publicação.

O que o leitor pode esperar de "Berilo - Conto de Fadas" ?

Berilo é um conto de fantasia.

Puro e encantador típico dos contos de fadas e com lições de moral para estimular a imaginação e reflexão de valores importantes para a humanidade.

O intuito do conto foi criar algo para que a diversidade de gênero pudesse ser explicada  desde cedo com naturalidade. Visto que assuntos como esse, ainda são tabus e devem ser tratados desde a fase educativa para um futuro mais tolerante entre as pessoas.

Por falar em assuntos tabus, você pretende apenas escrever obras voltadas para o público LGBT?

Bom, quando eu escrevi meu primeiro conto, escrevi a estória sobre um príncipe e uma sereia. E como eu disse anteriormente, eu havia feito muitas pesquisas e para mim a literatura tem muitas estórias "principe, princesa, sereia". Então eu pensei, porque não contar a estória de um tritão, afinal é o masculino de sereia e muita gente nem sabe. Porque não direcionar ao público LGBT e contar a estória entre dois seres iguais, do mesmo sexo. Eu não quis provocar, escandalizar, pois já existem alguns contos de fadas LGBT. 

O que eu penso é que a literatura LGBT precisa de crescimento, visibilidade e obras com qualidade literária. 

Eu sou um escritor livre. Existe esse direcionamento a determinados públicos, mas todos podem ler.

Estamos no século XXI e vamos adiante sem preconceitos, sem racismo, sem discriminação.

Vamos nessa busca por um mundo cada vez melhor para todos

Qual é o seu autor ou autora preferido?

Não tenho um autor(a) predileto, pois além de serem vários, sou um leitor eclético. 

Irei citar alguns como Clarice Lispector, Monteiro Lobato, Ganymedes José, Macos Rey, Opal Wheeler, Charlotte Brontë, Jane Austen, Shakespeare, etc.

Bom, mas vou citar alguns atuais e desconhecidos, pois penso que devemos dar visibilidade aos novos e até mesmos aos autores independentes. Eu particularmente gosto muito de literatura jovem adulto, então posso citar: Abbi Glines, Cristal Pierre, Nicolle Elliot, Nikki Winter, Jennifer Lowery, Jeffrey A. Miles, Vinícius Grossos, Rodrigo Fonseca, Babi Dewet, Paula Pimenta, entre outros 

Eles de alguma maneira te inspiraram a escrever?

De certa forma sim, mas minha maior inspiração vem de músicas e pensamentos que surgem nos momentos  em que estou só, principalmente à noite, de madrugada. Quando vejo alguma paisagem.

Você segue carreira apenas como escritor ou tem outra profissão?

Sou licenciado em Letras Português e Inglês, mas atuo na área Administrativa.

Say I'm Yours por Corinne Michaels

From New York Times Bestseller, Corinne Michaels, comes a new second chance standalone romance.

I spent twenty years waiting for Trent Hennington to open his eyes and see me. But it was all for nothing. He chose to keep himself guarded and let me walk away, proving that my time and efforts were wasted.

I’m done being invisible.

It’s time to move on.

A single dance sets my new reality into motion, and I welcome it. After all, Cooper Townsend is perfect. He’s kind, sexy, and attentive—everything a girl could want.

I thought I got it right this time.

That my heart could mend, and I would be happy.

Apparently, some things really are just too hard to walk away from.

Saved By The Viking Warrior por Michelle Styles

"THERE IS NO ONE. I TRAVEL ALONE. I LIVE ALONE. ALWAYS." 

Battle-scarred Thrand the Destroyer has only one thing on his mind: settling old scores. But with the beautiful Lady of Lingfold as his prisoner, the unyielding warrior starts to dream of a loving wife and a home to call his own. 

Cwen is also seeking justice, but she knows the fragile alliance she's built with Thrand will only last as long as they share a common enemy. Unless they can find a way to leave revenge to the gods to forge a new life together. 

"Maintains the myth while adding sexual tension, nonstop action and spice." —RT Book Reviews on The Viking's Captive Princess

The Way Back Home por Carmem Jenner

August Cotton shouldn’t be here. When a tragic accident calls him home to Magnolia Springs, this returned Veteran adds his parents to the list of things he’s lost in recent years, right along with his IED detection dog and his left leg. As the sole guardian of his four-year-old sister, August must rely on his Marine training in raising a tiny hellion who’s as stubborn as he is. But the Corps could never prepare him for this. Nor could they prepare him for Olivia Anders, a woman who’ll stop at nothing to get her way.

As owner of Paws for Cause, Olivia is no stranger to the broken men and women who return home from war. She’s no stranger to broken dogs either. In fact, she’s made it her mission to pair the two and enrich both of their lives, but pairing ornery and aloof August Cotton will take some work. The last thing August wants is some pushy southern woman occupying his parents’ bed and breakfast and forcing him to open up about the hell he narrowly escaped, but that’s exactly what Olivia intends.

They complete one another, and yet they can’t stand to be in the same room.

Can Olivia make this hardened Marine feel again and finally show his heart the way back home?

Sinopse

No crepúsculo da Idade Média, no reino fictício de Marland, destinos improváveis se entrelaçam entre a terra e o mar. A narrativa acompanha o amor proibido entre Berilo, belo e enigmático tritão, príncipe de Lazúli — as águas que banham a baía marlandiana — e Noah, herdeiro do trono de Marland, um jovem dividido entre o dever da coroa e os apelos do coração.

Enquanto esse sentimento floresce em segredo, uma sombra avança sobre o reino. Lorran, príncipe de Sandell, nação vizinha, toma para si o trono de Marland com astúcia e crueldade. Aristocrata ambicioso, ele não reconhece limites para conquistar poder — e a paixão obsessiva que nutre transforma seu caráter até revelá-lo como um vilão sem escrúpulos. Em contraste, o amor desperta em Noah uma força adormecida, libertando o guerreiro que jamais imaginou ser.

Entre intrigas palacianas e antigos feitiços, ergue-se a sinistra floresta de Blake, onde uma bruxa sedutora e maligna dorme há sete anos. Seu despertar promete vingança, caos e o desejo ardente de reivindicar para si a coroa de rainha.
