1. FROM SALT TO SKYE by Adriane Leigh
SYNOPSIS
Fable Prescott believes two lies. The first, that she was chosen at random for the summer study abroad program at her university, and the second, that she came to the wind-whipped Isle of Skye to research her family’s mysterious Scottish ancestry. She never expected to find herself embroiled in a cold case that has kept a tiny seaside village on edge for years.
When another woman vanishes, Fable begins to wonder if there is more to the dark legends that cling to the island like a cold ocean mist. And if her brooding, devastatingly handsome new neighbor, Alder, is the only one that holds the key to her family’s tragic past.
2. WICKED MATRIMONY by Logan Chance
SYNOPSIS
Draven Blackmoor is a monster. A nightmare who haunts my dreams. A vampire who stalks the night, hunting for his next victim. The ruler of a modern kingdom that dwells in the darkness. And I’m his only light.
I possess a power that makes me wanted by his enemies. He promises to save me by offering his crown. I have no choice but to marry him and become his queen. But I won’t fall for his seductive charms.
I’m forced to live in his castle and spend time with him. Forced to prepare for a wedding to a man who frightens me into believing his lies. Wicked royalty with no chance of redemption.
There’s only one thing he can’t force upon me—himself. Yet, the fact he stays away has me yearning for more. I find myself memorizing every curve of his chiseled body. The possessive way his sinewy muscles flow each time he stalks closer. The sensual way his lips curve upward in a sinister smile each time he talks to me. His hungry, dark eyes make promises he’ll never keep.
If it’s my blood he’s after, I’d quickly give him mine. He’s irresistible. And that thought terrifies me. So much that I sneak away and escape to the mountainous terrain of the haze-shrouded forest. I’ll take my chances with the evil waiting to capture me, rather than risk my heart to a man without one. However, I’ll never be ready for what’s waiting for me there.
3. GILDED CAGE by Dani Wyatt
SYNOPSIS
A horrible curse has turned me into a monster. It keeps me from the one thing in this world that makes me want to live. Calliope wanders the halls and rooms of the golden castle, unable to leave cursed by the same dark forces that will to keep us apart forever.
Night and day from the edge of the woods, I watch. I stalk her, pacing as she wanders the lonely halls and rooms of the golden castle, the same dark curse that has trapped her there confining me to life inside this monstrous body in the darkness.
The forces arrayed against us, keeping us apart, are strong, but my will is stronger. The mere sight of her is the balm to the rage inside my twisted body, even knowing I can never touch her. But I know I must find a way.
Will the magic we create together be enough? Will it break the dark curse and allow us the life I so desperately want to give her? Or will the forces of evil prevail, tearing us apart again, this time forever?
4. CROWN OF THORNS by Terri E. Laine
SYNOPSIS
Elin has never believed in the supernatural until one day she defies her mother’s rules to see the sunset from the outside rather than in. She is an adult and what could it hurt, really?

Duncan McAllister, a gorgeous fallen angel, with a warded castle, can keep her hidden. Only when she arrives, he makes it crystal clear he doesn’t want her there.
Elin, unwilling to remain with the obstinate man who doesn’t want to help her, inexplicably steps back in time over four hundred years in the past on the day Duncan is to wed another. Though she finally learns what’s her gifts are capable of, in a time when the lord rules all, she must find a way to survive or better, a way back to the present.
Only the servants in the castle believe her to be Duncan’s intended. To save her neck, she must walk down the aisle and marry a man who despises her on sight. The question remains what he will do when he lifts her veil and finds her not to be the woman he’s supposed to marry.

Hated for her beauty... hunted for her heart.
Adelaide Snow has lived her entire life believing she’s ordinary, but the startling truth has been locked away in her mind... buried beneath an avalanche of lies.
The week before her twenty-first birthday, she wakes up in a mysterious castle that only exists in her dreams… or so she thought. It’s nothing like the fairytales she read as a child. No charming prince coming to save the day. Only a brooding huntsman with a shattered moral compass.
A stranger to the kingdom, and an enemy to the crown, Adelaide has two choices—wake herself from this illusion or disappear into the dark winter woods alone. The Black Forest can’t compare to the darkness lurking inside the palace walls. The evil Queen has demanded her fragile heart, but the rouge huntsman wants it for himself.
