Love Bites by TL Clark

Summary by Goodreads:
Shakira had never felt at home growing up in Surrey, but as soon as she entered the quaint Welsh village she knew she belonged. Maybe it was because of the welcoming villagers. Or perhaps it was the presence of the others whom she sensed nearby; the ones she saw in her dreams, with their strange glowing eyes.

Fate is not always kind. It gives with one hand and takes with the other. There is a reason she didn’t grow up with her own kind.

A rich tale of witchcraft, fae, sorcery, elinefae and dragons; this is a story for all who dare to believe.

Dreams by the Fire (Sinful Holiday Series #2) by Crimson Syn

Summary by Goodreads:
Holly Snow has captivated me mind, body, and soul.
My obsession with her began ten years ago,
But she was too young back then, too innocent.
I forced myself to stay away, but now she’s appeared back in my life
And my craving to possess her has only grown stronger.
I’ve made it my life’s mission to never let her go again,
And I vow to own every part of her even if she’s doing everything she can to avoid me.
I will make her mine and I will make her see,
That I’m the only man who can make all her dreams come true.

Staying at my grandparent’s cabin was going to be temporary.
It was the perfect spot to finish writing my new novel in peace.
I’ve always been a loner, I’ve never been good with people,
But meeting Logan Garland has completely changed my priorities.
The deep timbre of this gorgeous handyman’s voice makes my insides purr.
The hungry look in his eyes both scares me and lights me up in every way possible.
He’s got me so obsessed, I can’t think straight,
And being near this stranger may just send me over the edge.
If I’m not careful, I may let him have all of me.

Seth (A Hell's Lovers MC #5) by Crimson Syn

Summary by Goodreads:
I didn’t expect to cross paths with Ciara Morton.
Her innocent beauty literally knocked me to my knees.
I’d never met a woman like her.
She’s smart to stay away from me.
I like my sex rough and dirty and I don’t believe in love.
But she’s slowly seeping into my bones,
And the more she rejects me, the greedier I get.
She should stay away, before I lose all sense of control.

Seth Scardino is all sinewy muscles and rough attitude.
He’s the type of man who takes without asking permission.
From the first moment I saw him, I knew he would be my weakness.
He controls me in every way possible,
But I’ll never admit it.
If I do, he’ll know I’ll let him take me completely,
And I don’t think I’ll be able to let him go if he does.

Leather and Lace by Jessie Evans

Summary by Goodreads:
Wild girl, Mia Sherman, has a secret--she isn't as fearless as she pretends. Descended from Lonesome Point, Texas's founding family, Mia grew up hearing tales of an old Irish curse that had followed the Shermans to America. At age twenty-four, Mia is still terrified of the stories, because they aren't stories. They are a warning about what will happen if Mia allows love and romance into her life. The curse struck Mia's grandmother and her great-great-whatever grandmother, and Mia knows she could be next. The first-born daughter of every generation is cursed to lose her husband on her wedding night, which is one of the many reasons Mia has sworn off relationships.

Until the fateful day Sawyer Kane rides his Harley into her life ...

Rancher turned restoration expert, Sawyer Kane, can't believe his luck when the feisty owner of the lingerie shop next to his hotel turns out to be the curator of his latest project, a ghost town he's been sent to restore. He's looking forward to long, hot days talking history, and hotter nights with Mia, but the redhead with the killer smile seems determined to keep him at a friendly distance. But when a dangerous man from Mia's past arrives in town, Sawyer finds himself drawn into her inner circle, and into the legend of Lonesome Point itself.

Can true love conquer all, even a centuries-old curse? Mia and Sawyer may be the first to find out.

Upon Several Occasions By Elizabeth Berridge

Summary By Goodreads:

'Bad luck's been on her ever since she was born' and the pitfalls that surround Mady Barnard form the backdrop to this moving story of community.

Birth, marriage, death and a trip to Bristow link the industrious characters of Elizabeth Berridge's subtle and insightful third novel, first published in 1953. Mrs. Barnard's aspirations for her daughter Mady, the grief felt by Mrs. Peters, the rector's wife, over her son's death in Burma and Doris Weldon's frustration with her children tell of day-to-day life in the village. In the background remains the Women's League, a subterfuge where knitting patterns and scone 

recipes are swapped and where gossip is circulated with passion.

Wolf: A Hell's Lovers By Crimson Syn

Summary By Goodreads:
Scarlett Chase is every man’s wet dream.
As soon as I laid eyes on her, I knew she’d be mine. 
That is, until I found out she was untouchable.
One kiss, one forbidden touch, will have me out on the streets and stripped of who I am.
Yet I want her. I need her. And I’m done following all these damn rules.

Wolf Stone is my obsession.
Ever since he pulled over on that empty road, I’ve been tormented by the man.
His possessive words and heated looks have me tightly wound.
One touch, and he lights me on fire. 
But I want more.
I not only want him in my bed, I want to keep him for myself.
But he won’t budge, and now it’s up to me to entice his sleeping wolf.
