Enjoy this collection of spicy fantasy romance for the winter season, with five novellas by Nisha J. Tuli, Lisette Marshall, Casey Blair, Vela Roth, and Laura Greenwood! The Diamond Scar by Lisette Marshall She doesn't want to marry. Neither does he. What could possibly go wrong? Forced to spend her Midwinter celebration at court, Hythra devises the perfect plan to keep unwanted suitors away. All she needs is the company of the last man who’ll ever try to marry her: a drunkard who’s made his dislike of her abundantly clear. Except it turns out Cai is not that much of a drunk at all – and worse, that he doesn’t really dislike her, either. But dark family secrets and erratic magic aren't so easily defeated, and on the longest night of the year, time is running out... When Legends Spark by Casey Blair A firestarter of unmatched power crashes into the life of the most legendary swordsman alive… Kazuron thought with retirement he'd escaped the demands of his past, while Jesra's safe, boring life has just been stolen from her. When the combined forces of their enemies threaten the sanctuary of the Frozen Wilds, they know they'll never be able to keep the unexpected home they find in each other—unless they're willing to risk demonstrating to each other, and the world, just how much danger they’re really capable of… Blood Legacy by Vela Roth In a snowbound castle on the brink of war, can she stop the dangerous immortal who once captured her heart? Tahmina may be ancient and powerful, but she's always had a weakness for Zeno, the human lover she gave up a decade before. Now he's an immortal Hesperine like her, more tempting than ever with his new fangs. Too bad it's her duty to arrest him before he destroys the delicate truce between mortals and Hesperines. Zeno sacrificed his lordly status in the human world, while Tahmina left him to face eternity alone. When he infiltrates the castle where his old enemies are snowed in, he won't let the beautiful Hesperine stand in his way - or escape him a second time. Now that his power matches hers, can he make her admit they're fated to Crave each other's blood forever? Heart of Blood and Ice by Laura Greenwood An assassin doesn't have any space in her heart for anyone else...or so she's been told. Trained as a deadly assassin since the moment she arrived at court, Sariah knows that her duty to House Dagworth comes before all else, especially her heart. When Sariah finds herself at the altar opposite the man she most wants to see there, but least wants to kill, she knows that she's going to have a choice to make. Is she strong enough to let her heart decide? Wicked is the Reaper by Nisha J. Tuli I was a good little princess...until the Reaper came for me. It’s the day of the Hunt, and I've always known it would decide my future. The man who brings the largest stag to the feet of my father will win my hand in marriage. My oldest friend and the greatest hunter in Aetherus is favored to win, and we've planned our entire lives together. That is, until the Reaper, the monster who haunts the trees, arrives with the largest stag in the forest and claims me as his own.

As she grew, a curriculum of fantasy novels with kickass heroines helped her learn to control and wield her abilities. Eventually she dared pursue the knowledge inside the most forbidden tomes: romance novels. She's been practicing the dark arts of fantasy romance ever since, but she strives to use her novels only for good. She lives in a solar-powered writer's garret at the foot of the mountains. Her familiar is a rescue cat with a missing fang and a huge heart. When not typing furiously at her manuscript, she can usually be found gaming on her home-built PC or trying to grow roses in the desert. She loves hearing from readers and hopes you'll visit her at velaroth.com.
Lisette Marshall is a librarian by day and a writer of steamy fantasy romance by night. She combines a lifelong love for fairytales, mystery novels and sexy adventures in her books. When Lisette isn’t dreaming about gorgeous heroes and sensual heroines, she can usually be found reading about weird history, plotting unrealistic fictional murders or baking way too many chocolate cookies for herself and her boyfriend.
