The Pucking Coach’s Daughter by S. Massery

From bestselling author S. Massery comes a brand new dark hockey reverse harem standalone.

Trust no one.

I learn that the hard way after hockey star Carter Masters stabs me in the back and turns our rival school against me.

Suddenly, I’m Public Enemy Number One at Framingham State.

Just a year later, that’s exactly where I’m forced to enroll.

No one has forgotten what I did.

The anti-Sydney campaign is led by two gorgeous, psycho hockey players. Oliver Ruiz, captain. And Penn Walker, the devastating goalie.

They have me in their sights the moment I step foot on their campus. Where they lead, the rest of the students follow. They won’t stop until I’m gone and Carter’s team faces payback.

My only solace from the constant bullying comes from a blocked number that keeps texting me.

But as much as Oliver and Penn want to, they can’t drive me off completely. Because even at the worst moments, I know I’m not going anywhere.

After all, I’m their coach’s daughter.

How to Be a Good Villain by Jamie Dalton

Lillith Shadowend is the most powerful villain in three kingdoms, but corrupting the insufferably pure-hearted Prince Asher is a tall order, even for her.

Disguised as a castle maid, Lillith attempts every devilish scheme and seductive trick to unravel Asher’s shining reputation, yet the pampered prince manages to evade her efforts with infuriating optimism.

Worse still, the more time Lillith spends scrubbing the manor floors, the more she finds herself falling for Asher’s spirit, empathy, and hidden quirks beneath the princely facade.

With her icy heart melting fast, Lillith must decide whether to abandon her wicked ways for a chance at an epic, star-crossed love or to deliver Asher to darkness. Because even the noblest heroes hide secrets that could ruin everything.

This is book 2 in a series of stand alone fantasy rom-coms that are only connected to each other in the epilogue. The female main character is a bit feral and immature from how she is raised and this is not a dark book at all. While it does still have action and big moments, it is meant to be a light hearted rom-com.
This is also a sweet open door edition of the book. If you desire a fade to black version it is available as physical copies.

How to Dump a Vampire (How To Villain On RomCom) by Jamie Dalton

She’s a reclusive witch with a dark secret. He’s a charming vampire prince. Together, they’re a disaster waiting to happen.

Thorn, a powerful witch, has perfected the art of isolation in her warded forest cottage. But when a blizzard dumps an injured vampire on her doorstep, her carefully constructed solitude crumbles faster than day-old bread. Suddenly trapped with a chatty royal, Thorn finds herself aggressively kneading dough to avoid confronting the unwanted guest—and the fated mate bond she’d rather forget.

Prince Draven is charming, infuriating, and impossible to ignore. Torn between duty to his realm and the undeniable pull he feels toward Thorn, he finds himself questioning everything he thought he knew. As he recovers under her reluctant care, Draven becomes determined to unravel the mysteries surrounding the prickly witch who saved his life—and why she’s so intent on punishing innocent loaves of bread.

As the snow piles up outside, so does the tension within. Can these two opposites rise to the occasion, or will their secrets leave them in a jam? One thing’s for sure: this storm is baking up more than just bread.

This is book 1 in a series of standalone fantasy romcoms. These books are set in the same world and are only connected in the epilogue so they can be read individually in any order.

The Never King (Vicious Lost Boys, #1) by Nikki St. Crowe

The stories were all wrong — Hook was never the villain.

For two centuries, all of the Darling women have disappeared on their 18th birthday. Sometimes they’re gone for only a day, some a week or a month. But they always return broken.

Now, on the afternoon of my 18th birthday, my mother is running around the house making sure all the windows are barred and the doors locked.

But it’s pointless.

Because when night falls, he comes for me. And this time, the Never King and the Lost Boys aren’t willing to let me go.

NOTE: The Never King is a reimagining of Peter and Wendy. Characters have been aged up for this darker, grittier version. If you like your enemies to lovers romance with hot, ruthless, morally gray love interests, you’ll enjoy The Never King and the Lost Boys. You can expect hate kissing, fighting, bickering, and ‘touch her and I’ll unalive you’ vibes. Book one ends on a cliff.

Watching me sleep.

I should have left when I had the chance.

Before he started acting like I was his pet.
