Draco

2022

My boss is a dragon and he tastes like magic. When I say I’m a clumsy woman, I’m not being cute. With the amount of things I have tripped over, dropped on myself, and fallen into, it’s a miracle I am still alive. One might even say I’m cursed. So how the hell did I end up working in a restaurant kitchen? And not just any kitchen – this one is run by the notorious chef Draco Domanski, who cannot abide people tripping on asparagus or spilling coffee down his shirt. (Which I do not regret. The memory of that shirt clinging to his abs comes handy in the shower.) Sowing chaos in Draco’s precious kitchen, I’ve come to know all the signs of his displeasure. Eyes gleaming red. Smoke fuming from his nose. Tail wrapping around my leg. Draco can’t stand my klutzy ways. And yet, he can’t let me go. Because there is a certain… service… only I can perform for him. Or more accurately – on him. It has to do with his secret spice, and boy, do I mean it when I say spice. Draco is doubly endowed (as in, he has two) and as hot as only a dragon can be. He tastes heavenly. And I can’t fall for him because he’s my boss, keeps calling me Rabbit, and his fangs could rip me in half. If I ignore the tension cooking between us, it will go away. Right? This is a full dragon shifter romance novel with a HEA and adult content. It is a standalone - each book in this romance series will follow a different couple.

Trickster

2023

Loki cursed me. He kidnapped me. I won’t let him seduce me, too. When Trickster curses me, my life shatters. I can’t work, can’t cook, can’t even touch my face or body. His perverted joke makes my existence unbearable. And when it seems like I’ve hit rock bottom, it gets even worse. My nemesis kidnaps me. I am trapped in his military compound filled with supernatural soldiers, and Loki hounds my every step. He deceives me with words of affection, playing tricks on my mind and heart. I try to resist him… but it’s hard to look away. The powerful god with a playful smile slithers into my heart like a snake. He burrows deeper and deeper with every seductive whisper, until I discover the hate I feel for him can burn as hot as desire. Soon, it becomes more than passion. After Loki saves my life more than once, fighting hellish beasts with his magic and wit, I am ready to accept his courtship. But then it turns out his enemies are not the only monsters after me. Loki’s appearance is a lie. And even though he makes my heart beat like it’s in love, I will never give in to him again.

Falling for Mr. Hyde

2023

I have one task: assassinate headmaster Hyde. He is powerful and has secrets more dangerous than my own. So why am I kissing him again? When the Magic Council threatens to deport me, I must agree to their demand I kill Mr. Hyde, Headmaster of Luxior Academy. I am the least qualified shapeshifter for the job. I've never killed so much as a spider. Not surprisingly, my mission starts with a series of disasters. I shapeshift into a student, but instead of blending in, I end up fighting for survival. The magic academy students break the laws of physics for fun, so attending classes is a deadly hazard. And headmaster Hyde is a devious opponent. Suspicious from the start, he forces me to shed my disguise, stripping away my only advantage. Suspicion turns to obsession. He hounds my every step, and to my dismay, his commanding gaze unravels my restraint. We hunt each other among the fire-lit corridors of Luxior Academy, where magic chips away at the laws of time and space. The deadly dance soon becomes a sensuous play of power and seduction. As Hyde tries to uncover my secrets, his skillful hands prying at my hidden places, I search for his weak spots. It is my fatal mistake. Instead of weaknesses to exploit, I find a man who is devoted, passionate, and as hard as steel. I don’t want to kill him. No, I’d rather kiss him. Kneel for him. Do anything else he commands. I could even be tempted to risk my life to spare his. As I venture deeper into this bewildering darkness, I know I'm risking not just my freedom but my magic, too. The stakes are high, and even though I'm in over my head, I need to play dirty to win this game. The problem is, Headmaster Hyde wrote its rulebook. This is a paranormal romance novel with a HEA and adult content. It is a standalone. Each book in this monster romance series follows a different couple.
