On the run and desperate to protect my niece Cora, I’ve been moving from town to town, never staying long—until my car breaks down in Silver Falls and leaves us stranded. I don’t expect anyone to help. I especially don’t expect three of them. Everett, Cash, and Lincoln are Silver Falls’ most powerful Alpha pack, and after what my old pack did to me, my guard goes up immediately… but these men are nothing like what I’m used to.

Choosing Their Omega is a stand-alone reverse harem hockey Omegaverse romance. It contains multiple points of view, lots of steam, and has a happily ever after! The characters are fully human and do not shapeshift.

I had no idea I was an Omega… Now I’m fake dating four rugged cowboy Alphas who happen to be my brother’s best friends. When I returned to my small hometown in Colorado, I knew I would run into people from my past—like my brother’s four best friends, and the subjects of my very secret teenage crushes. What I didn’t expect was that I’d start perfuming one night and realize I’m not actually a Beta. I’m an Omega, and now I’m supposed to choose a pack to bond with.

I’ve been hiding my Omega status for years, using heat suppressors and scent blockers to keep anyone from realizing what I really am. But when the black-market pills I bought fail one night, I find myself living my worst nightmare—perfuming in a crowded club full of Alphas.

Reese Sutton is every woman’s fantasy, with his crooked smile, warm brown eyes, and broad shoulders. But to me, he’s always just been my best friend. The man I rely on to have my back no matter what. I know he would do literally anything for me, so when he asks me for a favor, I can’t say no… even after I find out that he wants me to pretend to be his girlfriend to help him win back his ex.

When my ex breaks up with me in a very public way, all I want to do is hide from the world. But instead, I end up having the hottest night of my life with Theo Camden—a right winger for the Aces and my ex’s biggest rival. It’s only supposed to be one night, but when Theo finds out that I’ll be deported since I lost my job after the breakup, he proposes something else.

Picture this: Your fiancé cheats on you the night before your wedding with someone he claimed was his cousin. Then, just months later, he's at the altar with the same "cousin".

In Offside Hearts, social media manager Margo Lucas hooks up with star center Noah Blake in an elevator—one week before her first day on the job working for his team. It’s a forbidden workplace romance with a swoony hockey captain who’s determined to prove they’re worth the risk. In Breakaway Hearts, best friends Reese Sutton and Callie Marshall strike a deal. She’ll fake date him to help him win back his ex, and in return, he’ll give her lessons in the bedroom to help her regain her confidence.

As a secret Omega living as a Beta, I’ve worked hard to build a good life and escape my past. So when I land a job as the assistant to three powerful Alpha billionaires, I focus on keeping my head down—despite the way their intoxicating scents make my head spin. Everything is going fine… until the day my blockers fail and I start perfuming. I’m terrified that my three bosses are going to turn me over to the authorities so that I can be presented as an Omega and courted by a pack. But they don’t. Instead, they make me an offer: one year of marriage.

When I try to quit my job working for three demanding CEOs, Ford Kingsley—my cheating ex’s hotter older brother—offers me a deal instead. He needs a fake fiancée to convince a potential investor that he’s settled down, and I need money to pay off my crushing debt. Two weeks of pretending to be madly in love at his family’s estate, and we’ll both get what we want. But being stuck in a mansion with Ford and his unfairly sexy business partners, Gabriel and Hayden, is more complicated than I bargained for.

Josephine Bowen has the opportunity to travel to Key West for a work trip with Jack Lancaster, her grumpy and hard to figure out colleague. He frowns a lot, but he's also kind. Thoughtful. Considerate and an all-around good guy. When her toxic ex-boyfriend arrives at the same conference, Jack doesn't hesitate to jump in as her current love interest. Maybe it's the island air, or maybe it's the time they spend together preparing for the presentation they're delivering, but their fake feelings start to feel real.

For better or worse… That was the promise Denver and Kensa made, but it’s a sentiment they’ve somehow lost along the way. What started as a passionate wildfire has diminished to a flicker, all but snuffed out by unspoken fears, perceived betrayal, and a complete breakdown in communication. Can either of them tuck their ego away long enough to rekindle their flame?

Everything is all fun and games until living on the "wild" side becomes the rule instead of the exception. It's good to be bad... within reason, of course. And in this case? It's very, very good.

Between school, work, and being the best long-distance mom she can be, there’s one thing she definitely doesn’t have time for: Trouble. Trouble, meaning men. She’s watched her older sister go through a Lifetime movie’s worth of drama involving the opposite sex, and she’s not interested in that level of distraction. Until Ty.

Wenn ich etwas gelernt habe als Omega, dann, dass Tränen trocknen können. Wunden heilen. Schmerz … verblassen. Und dass Verzeihen bedeutet, zu akzeptieren, zu verstehen, zu lieben, zu vertrauen und nach vorne zu schauen. Nach vorne, wo ein Krieg herrscht. Wo ein Alpha in die Schranken gewiesen werden muss, ehe er weitere Leben zerstört. Aber wir werden das schaffen. Nicht als Kampfgefährten. Nicht als Team. Sondern als Rudel. Und das ist so viel mehr als alles, was es sonst auf dieser Welt gibt. Auf ins FINALE!
