Happy Pi Day!
Happy Pi Day!If you thought March 14th was just an ordinary day, think again. Every year on this day, we celebrate something extraordinary: the mathematical constant known as pi (π). So, what is pi? How did it come to be? And why do we celebrate it? Let’s take a look.
What is Pi?Pi (π) is a mathematical constant that represents the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. It is an irrational and transcendental number, meaning that its decimal representation never ends or repeats—it’s infinite! With all these mind-boggling properties, it’s no wonder why mathematicians have been studying it for centuries.
How Did Pi Day Come to Be?Pi Day was first celebrated in 1988 at the Exploratorium in San Francisco by physicist Larry Shaw. The date of March 14 (3/14) was chosen because 3.14 are the first three digits of pi (π). As more and more people began to learn about pi, Shaw’s celebration grew from a small gathering into an international phenomenon; now people around the world celebrate this special day every year with activities such as eating pies, memorizing digits of pi, throwing pies at each other (safely!), and having pie-eating contests.
So whether you’re a math whiz or someone who just enjoys celebrating random holidays, make sure to mark your calendar for March 14th every year and join in on the fun! From reciting digits of pi to eating fruit pies, there are plenty of ways to celebrate this special day—just remember to do so safely. Happy Pi Day!

But when prison walls begin to crack, she must decide if she wants a second chance at lost love or if that love is the reason for all her suffering.

How Valentine’s Day has Influenced the Romance Book Industry
How Valentine’s Day has Influenced the Romance Book IndustryThe holiday of love and romance — Valentine’s Day — is steeped in history, culture, and literature. From its beginnings as a religious festival to its modern-day celebration of love and affection, this special day has no shortage of stories to tell. In more recent times, the holiday has also had an impact on the romance book industry. Let’s take a look at the history behind Valentine’s Day and how it influences the romance book industry today.
A Brief History of Valentine’s DayValentine’s day can be traced back to Ancient Rome, where it began as a religious festival called Lupercalia. During this festival, men would sacrifice goats for fertility and purity before then having a feast which included women being paired off with men by lottery. This tradition continued until 269 A.D when Pope Gelasius I declared February 14th as St. Valentine’s Day and replaced Lupercalia with a Christian feast day in honor of Saint Valentine who was martyred for refusing to give up Christianity.
During the Middle Ages, people believed that birds chose their mates on February 14th, so it became known as the “Day of Love” or “The Lover’s Festival.” By this time, poems were circulating throughout Europe about love and romance in honor of St. Valentine’s Day, which sparked an interest in writing about romantic relationships and thus began what we now know as the romance novel genre.
The Impact on Today’s LiteratureToday’s celebration of love is very different from what it was centuries ago, but its influence can still be felt in literature — particularly in the romance book industry. In fact, according to data from Bookstat (a market intelligence company), romance books make up around 10% of all print books sold each year! That means that over 200 million books are sold every year just within this genre alone! And while authors don’t necessarily have to write about Valentine’s day itself—romance books inspired by Valentines’ Day are incredibly popular around this time of year due to its association with love, passion, and relationships—all concepts that readers enjoy exploring through these books!
Valentine’s day is one of our oldest holidays — one steeped in history and culture — yet it is still celebrated today with enthusiasm all over the world! Not only does it bring joy to those who celebrate it, but it also has had a huge influence on literature — most notably on the ever-popular romance book industry! As such, if you’re looking for something special to read this Valentine’s Day season, then why not try out one of these wonderful stories; you won’t be disappointed!

He’s a workaholic that lives and breathes money and business. I prefer to lose myself in my art.

How can Anna Ellis, a geeky, brilliant, and hopelessly smitten cosmetic chemist possibly win over Craig Kimball, the man of her dreams—who also happens to be her boss? The answer is Craig’s empathetic (and handsome) CEO half brother, Marco. The makeup mogul knows Craig for the ridiculously competitive rival he is. Whatever Marco has, Craig wants. That can be Anna, if she’s game to play.
All Anna and Marco have to do is pretend they’re falling in love and let the rumors begin.

With every fake date, Anna’s feelings are starting to become dizzyingly real.
Blame it on chemistry. It’s unpredictable, exciting, and occasionally combustible. If Anna and Marco are really falling in love, who are they to argue with science?

Ava Fenaly knows a thing or two about magik, and she knows exactly what she’s doing when she summons a demon in her bedroom. Well, almost. Ava is convinced the exhilarating night of passion that follows is all a dream. It has to be, because she’s dead set against revisiting her past—and the horrors she left behind long ago. F
or the last three hundred plus years, Donatus Manlian has been living a peaceful life. Lonely, but peaceful. When the demon he has kept carefully locked within for centuries finally breaks free and responds to Ava’s call, the peace—and the loneliness—are gone. Now Donatus is forced to revisit tragedies long buried as he protects Ava from the evil that pursues her. But another evil lies within him—and now that it’s been awakened, the demon wants free.

PillowMalina MacGregor is more than just a delicate flower in need of manly protection, but you wouldn’t know it by the slew of male family members who show up anytime she tries to go on a date. She’s a powerful warlock in her own right, if only they would let her prove herself.
Fine, sure, she’s made some poor choices in men in the past—like the demon she mistakenly hooked up with in Las Vegas years ago. But that was then, and this is now, and she more than made up for that mistake.

It used to be that the president was the most powerful person in the country. That all changed when Wrath crossed over to our world. Nothing could stop him. Nothing can kill him. Eventually we all bowed at his altar.
Now there are websites dedicated to worshipping him. Countless internet memes about how ridiculously gorgeous he is. And yeah, I can admit he’s fine as hell. But he’s a villain to end all villains. There’s no way I’m falling prey to that.
That is until I accidentally cross paths with the Demon King. Wrath demands I bow to him. For a second, I almost do. Being around him is…consuming. But dying is better than surrendering and I refuse.
Except when Wrath turns his dark, dangerous power on me…it doesn’t work. And now the villain is looking at me like I’m the enemy.
I manage to get away, but word quickly spreads — Rain Low, a nobody from a tourist town is somehow immune to the Demon King.
Now Wrath is hellbent on destroying me and those who want to destroy him are hellbent on using me.
But I’m no heroine. And I’m certainly no villain. But if I’m going to survive, I have to play the game. If the Demon King wants a fight, he’s going to get one.

And nothing will stop him from claiming her.
Not even the elf warrior determined to steal her heart.
The moment Thorne set eyes on the mortal huntress Sable, he knew she was his one true mate. The fiery, dangerous female awakened hungers he had never experienced before, a dark craving and passion that has consumed him in their time apart. As the lunar cycle wanes, she enters his world again and nothing will stand in the way of him claiming his forever with her—not the relentless assault from the Fifth Realm or the dark elf male determined to seduce her out of his grasp.
Intent on achieving the coveted position of commander at Archangel, Sable leads her small team into the dark underworld and the Third Realm, to a war where her allies are the very creatures she normally hunts—vampires, werewolves, fae and demons. Her eagerness to lead the deadly mission has everything to do with winning her promotion, and nothing to do with the kingdom’s brash, lethally seductive demon king—a king who stirred fierce desire and wildfire heat in her with just a look and an innocent touch when they first met, and has been in her wicked dreams ever since.
As the gathering storm between rivals unleashes irresistible passion that flares white-hot and the heat of the battle brings life-shattering realisations, can Sable place her duty before her heart? Or will she surrender to her deepest desires and be claimed by a demon king?

That the first one I read would open a portal into a demon plane — or that the next one was an unbreakable vow to the seven foot tall shadow monster I unwittingly summoned into my bedroom?
He says his name is Malphas, that he’s something called a Sombra demon, and I’m his mate.
Monster, demon… whatever he is, his muscles are bigger than my head, and that club between his legs… I don’t know if mate means the same thing to him as it does me, but he’s gotta be kidding.
Spoiler alert: he’s not.
Mal has been waiting for more than a thousand years for the one woman meant for him. He’s convinced that’s me, and he’s willing to do anything to prove it. And maybe there’s something really wrong with me because, before long, I find myself eager to let him try…
* Mated to the Monster (~55,000 words) is the first in a monster romance series about the Sombra demons, a race of shadow-based monsters who will do anything to claim their females. Mal and Shannon might come from different worlds, but when it comes to fate, lust, and forever… they might just be a perfect match.
