Yours, Forever After Preview
Yours, Forever After Preview Beth Bolden
Fifteen years ago, Prince Graham of Ardglass barely escaped his home with his young life. Rescued by a magical creature and spirited off to a faraway valley, he grew into a strong, capable man—never shirking his duties on the farm, but forever bitter over his father’s betrayal. But just when he has finally come to terms with being lost and staying lost, a visitor arrives in his valley and changes everything.
After a lifetime spent lost in his beloved books, Prince Emory awakens to find his villainous aunt working to usurp the throne of Fontaine. When she sends him on a dangerous quest, he’s certain the journey is a trap, but he’s not willing to accept defeat without a fight.
But a fight is something Rory is unprepared for, until he’s saved by a farmhand and a very chatty unicorn.

Leland
Being a hitman has its perks, but I never thought getting an accidental mooning by an attractive PI while he’s caught on a fence would be one of them. While it’s not exactly love at first sight, he’s captured my interest.
Suddenly, I find myself caught in a game of cat and mouse, determined to attract the attention of Jackson, who should be my enemy. He pretends like he’s not flattered by my flowers and the mentions of my blow-up doll Randy, but I know better. Why else would he be teaming up with me to bring down Hardek?
Jackson
Even though the cops are telling me that the hitman is a contract killer, I can’t help but admit that I’m drawn to him. He’s funny and charismatic. There’s no way this ridiculous man can be the one the cops are after.

Light Touch: Rhythm of Love #0.5
Light Touch: Rhythm of Love #0.5 Neve Wilder
A bar musician and a light-sensitive painter play a game of cat-and-mouse that begins with a song request and comes to a very steamy conclusion at a Halloween party.
Seasoned musician Rufus Merrill hardly notices the crowds he plays to, these days. Ten gallon hats and cowboy boots? Drunken coeds and tourists? They're a dime a dozen. But the black-clad guy leaning up against the wall of the bar in sunglasses after dark? That stands out.
Artist Quinn Marx has had his fill of musicians; past relationships dictate they're a bad idea. But something about Rufus and his music catches Quinn’s attention, and he can't help but put in a special request for a song just for the hell of it. Maybe just to give the guy a challenge.
One kiss in a dark alley later, and they're both hooked.

Nor Iron Bars a Cage Kaje Harper
First I was a sorcerer. Then I was a hermit. For so long—for years that seemed to go on forever—I couldn't bear to be touched. I put up not just walls but whole stone bunkers to keep everyone out, emotionally, and physically as well. I was protected from people, from ghosts, from specters real and imagined. Sure, I was alone. But I felt safe. Only, after a while, I wasn't sure any longer whether a totally "safe" empty life was really worth living.
Then Tobin came along. Out of the blue, out of my past, with a summons from the king that he wouldn't let me ignore. I tried to cling to my isolation, but he wouldn't give up on me. Tobin never believed in walls.

No quarry had ever managed to get under my skin, but something in Zale’s haunting blue eyes called to me like nothing ever had before.
Zale - When Itsaso and I were kidnapped, we fought like hell but found ourselves at the dragon hunter’s mercy. But something happened the first time I truly looked in Davis’s eyes, dark pools as deep and enchanting as the sea, and I realized I was in so much more danger than I thought. How could a ruthless dragon hunter be my perfect mate?

The Clockwork Monk is a mystery the President herself asks Trevor to solve. She wants it, and Trevor’s her spy. An encoded message leads him to the residence of the Archbishop of Chicago, where his undercover role allows him to indulge in fine waistcoats and fancy cravats.

The good Father doesn't act like a priest. Hell, Stephen may not be his real name. His broad shoulders and dark eyes are intriguing, and though Stephen’s clandestine agenda clashes with Trevor's, danger just adds to the temptation. Between kisses, Stephen forces Trevor to admit his loyalty goes deeper than cheap excitement, turning a simple burglary into a test of his allegiance.

His Fairy Share: An Excerpt Meghan Maslow
Six months have passed since wizard Quinn Broomsparkle left behind his indentured servant shackles. He’s in love with his half-dragon/half-fairy familiar, Twig Starfig. He’s got a home. Friends. A job. And a father-in-law he could do without. A pretty close to perfect life.
So, when Quinn receives a summons to return to his home realm, how hard could facing his past really be?
He and Twig are about to find out . . . Hint: it isn’t going to go well.
Excerpt: Chapter 1
or what might more accurately be titled:
“That Bastard Murphy and His Stupid Laws.”
