Just a Friend for the Lion

Sometimes a guy just wants a friend. But what if she turns into his forever?

Carter Leone is finally ready to take his roaring dreams to the next level—by opening his own luxury limousine service in Newark, New Jersey. With his sleek cars polished and his ambition revving, there’s only one stop left before launch: a business consultation with none other than Uzzi Stregovich—matchmaker extraordinaire, meddling Witch, and Carter’s former boss’s most eccentric client.
Carter knows all about Uncle Uzzi’s love traps and mate-matching spells, and he has zero intention of falling into any magical romances. Which is why he insists they meet on neutral ground—someplace mundane, like Pizza Girls.
Only, the second he bites into the best meat lover’s slice of his life and locks eyes with the curvy, captivating server behind the counter? Carter’s whole no-strings plan starts to crumble like parmesan.
He says he’s not looking for love. She says she’s not looking for trouble. But with a little nudge from a magical app and a not-so-subtle Witch, friendship might just be the beginning of forever.
One Lion. One normal. One impossible-to-ignore connection.
Sometimes, fate starts with just a friend.

Taken

She’s the key to turning the tide of a war he can’t afford to lose.

Phoebe
I like water.
Salt air, sun-warmed boardwalks, and sea lion kisses are kind of my thing.
Working at the Jersey Shore Aquarium isn’t glamorous, but it’s peaceful. Predictable. Safe.
Until a man with storm-colored eyes crashes into my exhibit—literally—and takes me.
No warning. No explanation.
One second I’m feeding fish. The next, I’m drowning in a whirlpool of magic and hauled into a realm where the ocean listens to him.
Kael, Lord of Water.
He says I’m his viyella. His true mate. And the key to reclaiming his power.
I didn’t sign up to be anyone’s magic battery. But each time he touches me, the tide shifts.
And maybe the scariest part?
I don’t want to leave.

Kael
The sea chose her.
My realm is unraveling, my power fading, and the crown of Castletide will fall to ruin if I don’t act.
Only a zareth bond can restore what was lost.
So I followed the pull. And I found her.
A mortal woman who speaks to sea lions and blushes when I look at her too long.
She doesn’t understand her worth. Or how badly I need her.
Not just to save my lands, but to save me.
Because once I touched her, I knew the truth.
The tides aren’t mine to command anymore.
She is.

Stolen

He needs her to claim the realm that should have always been his.

Jules
I always wanted to belong, but I never meant to belong to him.
Bartending in a dive across the river from the city isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. One night, after a scuffle with rowdy customers, a stranger named Alaric steps in.
He’s no ordinary man—dangerously beautiful and skilled in combat. After saving me, he asks a simple question.
Are you alone in the world?
I answer honestly, but it’s a mistake.
Alaric kidnaps me to another realm, where I’m the only human and prey in a harsh, unforgiving world.
He needs me as his mate to claim his destiny, and I’m powerless to resist. His charms are impossible to fight, and as long as I stay loyal, I’ll be safe.
But how can I stay with someone whose hunger for power outweighs his need for me?

Alaric
Claiming the throne of Nightfall was always my destiny.
But to do it, I need a mate.
Willing or not.
Jules is human, but the blood in her veins calls to mine like no other. She’s the key to my crown, the only one who can anchor my power and secure my claim. I didn’t expect to crave her the way I do.
Her fire. Her stubbornness. Her softness that hides a strength I never saw coming.
I brought her here to use her. To bind her to me with ancient rites and magic older than the realm itself.
But now? Now I would burn kingdoms to keep her.
The realm needs a ruler. But my heart has already chosen a queen.
