SERUM by Dennis Ogden

SERUM by Dennis Ogden

In 1999, during East Timor’s violent struggle for independence, Australian marine biologist Professor Marcus Glasson watched helplessly as a brutal militia leader abducted eight-year-old Noi de Jesus.
It takes eighteen years for him to fulfil his promise to rescue her. What he discovers could help him achieve his dream.
A rare sea worm, found in the volcanic vents under the Banda Sea, is the source of a serum that, when administered to pregnant lab mice renders their offspring immune to all known diseases. The immunity is passed on through following generations, offering the hope of a disease-free world.
Discovering the rescued Noi is newly pregnant, Marcus Glasson sees his chance to test the serum on a human and achieve his dying gift to the world.
As the unborn child’s father was her sadistic abductor, Noi is taken to Yeppoon, Queensland for her safety. There, Marcus succumbs to years of self-testing his own experiments and dies.
Noi is now alone in a strange land with no ID.
Fooled by an offer of help, she is violently assaulted.
As she lies comatose in hospital, the police pigeonhole her as an illegal Asian sex worker and pass the case to the Department of Immigration, where researcher Kailee Banks must decide the girl’s origin.
What she uncovers sets her, Noi and her unborn baby on a dangerous course.
The estranged adult son and daughter from the Professor’s failed marriage have their hopes of a rich inheritance shattered when they learn their father has been living a secret life in Dili, and a codicil has been added to his Will. They conspire with the baby’s father for a mutually beneficial outcome.
Death, greed, corruption, betrayal and the race to find another worm threaten the survival of Noi and her miracle baby.
It takes the Banda Sea to determine the outcome.

MARIO by Claire Kirby

MARIO by Claire Kirby

I was hired to clean up his empire and reduce his risk.
Then I became the one risk he couldn’t control.

I don’t trust powerful men.
Especially not men like Mario Conti.
Older. Ruthless. Untouchable.

The newly established don of Chicago, with two grown sons, a dead wife no one talks about, and a family name that opens doors most people are smart enough not to walk through.

My job is simple.
Audit his company.
Protect Conti Enterprises.
Keep the wrong people from asking the right questions.

But nothing about Mario is simple.
His business is too controlled.

His family is too careful.
His secrets are too deeply buried.

And the more I push, the closer he pulls me.

Into his office.
Into his home.
Into a relationship as explosive as it is forbidden.

I tell myself I won’t fall for him.

Not for his power.
Not for his restraint.
Not for the way he makes danger feel like desire.

But Mario Conti doesn’t love gently.

He claims.
He protects.
He consumes.

And by the time I realize how dangerous his world really is…
I’m already carrying his baby.

The Dream She Chose by Coselle Everly

The Dream She Chose by Coselle Everly

In the quiet corners of a bookstore, dreams aren’t just stories, they’re messages waiting to be understood.

Cara has a gift, subtle but undeniable: she can glimpse the threads of possibility through dreams. Every day, she shares small, meaningful messages with the customers who visit her shop, guided by intuition she doesn’t fully understand. But when a mysterious newcomer, Jace, walks into the shop, everything shifts. His presence is calm, grounding, yet impossible to ignore, and the dreams begin to grow stronger, clearer, and more urgent.

Everly, Cara’s observant friend, watches as the ordinary rhythm of the shop unravels. Dreams once small and comforting start to hint at something larger, something dangerous, and the certainty of their daily lives begins to fracture. As Cara leans into a connection with Jace, Everly senses that the boundaries between fate and choice, reality and dream, are blurring.

The Dream She Chose is a luminous tale of intuition, longing, and the subtle magic hidden in everyday life. With every turn of the page, readers are drawn into a world where dreams hold power, love feels both consuming and tender, and the line between what is real and what is possible is never quite clear.

Will Cara understand the message before it’s too late? And when the dreams intensify, will she choose the life she was shown—or the one she’s willing to live?

For readers of magical realism, gentle romance, and stories that linger in the mind long after the last page is turned, The Dream She Chose is a hauntingly beautiful journey into the unknown.

Deady Obsession by A.L. Long

Deady Obsession by A.L. Long

There is no greater evil than the ones you trust the most. I know this. I have always known this. So why do I keep searching his face for something different?

From the moment I woke up, my life was never my own. And now I’m trapped in his gilded cage, trying to piece together the life I lost eight years ago—and failing, because some mornings I wake up and cannot remember what I was so desperate to get back.

I hate him. He has taken everything from me, even my freedom. And yet.

My heart wants to believe that there is good in everyone. In him. God help me, even in him.

Maxim

Eight years I spent hating her for what she took from me. I had a plan. I had a reason. But the minute I saw her, I felt the plan crack somewhere down its center, and I have been pressing my hands against it ever since, trying to hold the two halves together.

She was like a siren, and I knew it, and I had to have her, knowing the risk. I told myself it was strategy. I told myself I was still in control.

No matter how much she begs, I will never let her go. I can’t. I don’t know anymore if that’s because of what she did, or because of what I feel. I’m not sure there’s a difference now. I’m not sure there ever was. She is mine and no one will ever take her from me.

Forbidden Obsession is the fourth book in The Red Knights Series. Each book is a standalone with a HEA. This is a Dark Mafia Romance which features scenes of a violent nature as well as those with explicit sexual nature with TW.

Twisted Obsession by A.L. Long

Twisted Obsession by A.L. Long

Lara

I despised him with every fiber of my being, and now he was coming after me. He was the monster who had taken my mama and papa from this world, and I was next on his list. The moment I stepped away from my childhood home, I understood that there was no going back. Larissa Zhukova had to vanish, and in her place, Sarah Jones emerged to navigate the shadows of a new life. That was until he tracked me down, his thirst for vengeance over what my father had done burning fiercely. But never did I imagine his revenge would involve binding me to him in marriage, compelling me to bear his heir. I had to find a way to flee, to escape his suffocating darkness before it consumed me entirely.

Dmitri

Vengeance had never tasted so intoxicatingly sweet, and there was nothing I desired more than to claim Lara as mine. She might believe her father had perished, but I knew the truth. Her family had ruthlessly stripped away everyone I loved, and it was time they faced the consequences. In the icy caverns of my heart, there was no room for love. Lara served a single purpose: to provide me with an heir. However, she had unexpectedly become an obsession, and with each passing day, she peeled away the layers of the dark armor I had encased my heart in, threatening to expose the vulnerability I had buried long ago.

Bring Me Into the Light by Shane Keleher

Bring Me Into the Light by Shane Keleher

Toronto, 1951. For Anna, the glass-fronted shops and bustling streetcars of postwar Toronto are merely a fresh coat of paint on a haunted house. She has spent years meticulously burying her past beneath the city’s polite rhythms, convinced that what is lost to the rubble stays there. She has survived by becoming a stranger to herself, until a chance meeting unearths the one thing she wasn’t prepared to find: her sister, Gerta, is alive.

But the girl who once skipped over Berlin cobblestones has been replaced by a woman hollowed out by the same shadows Anna tried to outrun. As the sisters reunite, the carefully constructed facade of Anna’s new life begins to crack. To find their way back to one another, they must excavate the secrets they kept to stay alive, secrets that now threaten to pull them back into the dark.

Moving between the atmospheric tension of prewar Germany and the burgeoning landscape of mid-century Toronto, Bring Me Into the Light is a visceral exploration of the archaeology of memory. It is a story of how we survive the unthinkable, and the courage it takes to finally speak the truth.

In the Sightline by A.M. Holloway

A single step into the open. A single shot meant to silence the truth.

When FBI SAC Maxwell Morgan steps out of a downtown Tampa restaurant with DHS analyst Calista Barr, the night shatters with the crack of a sniper’s rifle. Calista survives – but barely. And Maxwell is left with a question that won’t let him rest: Was the bullet meant for him…or for her?
As Calista fights for her life, the FBI Tampa Field Office uncovers signed of a carefully engineered operation – one built on surveillance, erased records, and a kill list hidden behind layers of authority. Someone has been watching Calista for weeks. Someone who knows her work. Her movements.. Her value.
With the shooter still at large, Maxwell’s guilt becomes fuel for a relentless pursuit of the truth. But the deeper the investigation goes, the clearer it becomes that the threat isn’t just a lone sniper. It’s a system designed to eliminate anyone who stands too close to what it protects.
Now, with faith tested under fire and trust in short supply, Maxwell and his team must expose the enemy before another name is placed in the sightline.
Because the next shot won’t miss.
