Austin always had a dominant presence, but his confidence is shaken when he loses his job. Self-doubt poisons his marriage, and now, his submissive wife, December, does not know where to turn. Desperate to protect her–from himself and his demons–Austin enlists his best friend, Cord, to play alpha for a while.

A once-perfect marriage spirals into chaos, and no one knows where the broken pieces will fall.

One must forfeit, or all three will lose.

An awkward girl's account of inexperience, sexual mishaps, and too much tequila...

Needing a change, Rayne Meyers—a.k.a. Calamity Rayne—sets out to be a personal assistant for one of the wealthiest families in the world. What could possibly go wrong? Inexperienced with sophisticated settings, she does her best not to screw things up too severely, except there's one complication she didn't foresee—her boss's devastatingly charming son, Hale Davenport.

Hale is everything Rayne is not–experienced, mature, and methodical. But when he meets his father's new assistant, a woman nothing like the calculating females he's used to, he is captivated and prepared to throw caution to the wind.

Let the awkwardness begin in this highly relatable, Amazon bestselling series from Lydia Michaels!

Once again, bestselling and award-winning author Lydia Michaels delivers...a baby?

What do you get when a billionaire control freak and an awkward hot mess decide it's time to make a baby? Pure chaos—and perhaps more than turkey in the oven by Thanksgiving.

Rayne thought getting pregnant would be easy. But between Hale's busy schedule and his affinity for kink (the kind that absolutely does not lead to procreation), their baby-making escapades have gone from a one-and-done–thoroughly satisfied–bedding to a hilariously hot adventure in family planning.

Hale is used to getting his way, but his patience wears thin when their love nest turns into a pressure cooker, and success isn't immediate. As things heat up, Calamity's careful planning goes up in flames—literally! With several sides of stuffing and enough dirty talk to make Santa blush, this laugh-out-loud raunch-com will warm readers' hearts this holiday!

Pass the yams... and the prenatal vitamins. Hale and Rayne are expecting more than leftovers this Christmas!

From bestselling and award-winning author, Lydia Michaels, comes an enemies-to-lovers, second-chance romance about love and redemption that will steal readers' hearts!

One bed. Freezing temperatures. And her childhood enemy.

When Erin heckles comedian Giovanni Mosconi at his final hometown show, he roasts her in front of everyone. She storms out of the bar and straight into a blizzard.

Stranded on the side of the road, she's not thrilled when the man who just humiliated her tries to rescue her. But one wrong turn lands them both snowed in with a grump–no power, no escape, and one very small bed.

Scorching tension and brutal banter lead to one unforgettable night that should never be mentioned again. But such off-the-charts chemistry isn't easily forgotten.

An enemies-to-lovers, forced proximity, romance that will heat up any cold heart over the winter holidays!

Sparks and rumors fly in this spicy friends-to-lovers romance from bestselling and award-winning author Lydia Michaels.

When a hot lumberjack falls for the new curvy girl in town, small-town gossip spreads like wildfire...

Finnegan McCullough never expected to find a blue-eyed bombshell trespassing on his family's mountain—but one look at Mallory Fenton's thick thighs and smart mouth, and he's done for. She's funny, gorgeous, and completely off-limits.

Mallory didn't move to a new town for love, and she definitely doesn't trust good-looking men to stick around. But Finn isn't just any guy—he's the greenest-flag, golden-retriever, flannel-wearing dream she never saw coming.

A steamy, feel-good small-town romance—where lumberjacks love big, and curvy girls always win.

A deeply emotional, LGBTQ small-town romance from bestselling author Lydia Michaels, where love, self-acceptance, and second chances take center stage.

A fallen athlete.

A quiet lumberjack.

And a love neither man saw coming...

Luke McCullough's dreams were destroyed by a football injury, forcing him back to his small-town roots—angry, lost, and nothing like the man he used to be. When Tristan Hughes, an unexpected friend with quiet strength, disarms Luke in the most surprising way, his world is flipped upside down again.

Tristan came to Center County to escape his past, not fall for a brooding, emotionally guarded man who doesn't know where he belongs. But beneath all that muscle and intensity, Luke hides a vulnerable heart—and Tristan is willing to fight for it.

As their connection deepens, Luke must face his biggest fear—embracing a love that would forever change how others define him, but might also finally set him free.

Bestselling author, Lydia Michaels, has created an unforgettable family saga bursting with sizzling secrets and scandalous moments in this award-winning series, McCullough Mountain, where each story can be read as a stand-alone!

Sometimes, the best things in life are unplanned.

One night erased from my memory leads to a nightmare I can't escape.

Don't call me a victim.

I'm a SURVIVOR.

Jade Shultz has spent a lifetime wanting the one man she could never have—her best friend's ex. But now that the past is behind them, and the once forbidden Jeremy Larson is finally within reach. For one perfect moment, it seems like fate is finally on their side. Until Jade wakes with no memory of the night before... and the chilling certainty that she wasn't alone.

The marks on her skin whisper of a violation she can't recall, a nightmare she never saw coming. Drowning in shame and fear, she pulls away from Jeremy, desperate to keep him from seeing the broken pieces of who she's become. But Jeremy isn't a man who walks away—not when he finally sees the woman and future he wants.

Instinctively protective. Unshakably devoted. Fiercely in love. Jeremy won't stop until he proves their passion is stronger than the shadows chasing Jade.

Can love really conquer darkness, or will the scars of their past destroy their second chance at a bright future?

\"Another dark and suspenseful masterpiece from bestselling and award-winning author Lydia Michaels that will have readers on the edge of their seats!\"

One is her father's business partner. The other is her brother's enemy...

Before Sawyer Bishop, I was innocent.

He was my mentor and my father's business partner. He was never meant to be my lover.

The first time Sawyer touched me, I was twenty-three. It felt good to do something forbidden, something inherently wrong. I wanted to be vengeful for a change. I needed to do something no one would approve of.

Between Sawyer and I lived a billion secrets, a billion stolen glances, and a billion lies.

But Sawyer was as ruthless as the rest of them. I never meant to fall in love with him, yet he always had an extraordinary power over me. I would have given him anything.

He was my first love, my first enemy, and the first man to break my heart.

But he could not break me.

And now, the rules of the game have changed...

Bestselling and award-winning author Lydia Michaels unleashes a scorching psychological romance that breaks the rules of fidelity and redefines perfect in a why-choose love story that delivers!

On the outside, our life looks perfect.

Inside, I'm screaming.

I crave order because I want to be a good girl. But good girls aren't broken, and I'm shattered in ways I've spent my entire life hiding. One day, the bad secrets inside of me will slip out.

My husband saved me from a monster, so I want to make him proud. I live for his praise. I do as I'm told, and I never let the pain inside of me breathe anymore. But it's there, dormant and waiting to get out.

When an unexpected guest shows up unannounced, I discover my husband has secrets from his past, too.

For the first time, I fear I might lose him. My version of perfect is no longer a priority as I try to become everything I think he needs to save our marriage.

What we're doing is wrong. What does it say about me if–deep down–I enjoy the depravity?

I want to revel in the pain as much as I need to escape the chaos. My fear of losing Mason consumes me.

The ache, the sting, the burn...I'm falling apart, and nothing seems to ground me except for his touch–but HE is not my husband, and yet he seems to be the key to our future.

I existed for years, content to please one powerful man. Could I please two? That's not something a good girl would do.

\"Bestselling and award-winning author Lydia Michaels delivers a devastatingly dark romance with thrilling psychological twists that haunt and hypnotize in this uniquely poignant mafia romance!\"

Callan MacGregor's tortured past is awakened when the woman he secretly loves is brutally attacked. His heart will not rest until vengeance is served.

Violence made me vicious, and my sins are too many to count.

When I look at her, I'm reminded of everything good and pure in this world.

My redemption is hopeless, so I keep my distance, fighting the temptation to get closer to her, even when her eyes and body invite me in.

Everyone I love disappears, so I must keep my distance to keep her safe. Distances and isolation are the price I must pay for the ruthless crimes I've committed.

But when I see her hurting, nothing, not even my past, can keep me away. She is mine to protect, and I will be her justice and protection from the true monsters in this ugly world.

Bestselling author Lydia Michaels wins the Rone Award for SIMPLE MAN, a spicy opposites-attract, single-dad romance!

When a tattooed musician becomes the guardian of a surprise baby, his life and heart are forever changed. Shane Martin has traded in late nights and fast women for midnight feedings and lullabies. All is well until Kate McAlester, a prissy, stuck-up social worker, is assigned to him.

Kate only sees a clueless, single dad unfit to be a parent, but Shane is determined to prove her wrong. The more he tries to impress the nosy social worker, the more volatile the situation gets, and sparks fly.

Shane can't decide whether to take Kate to bed or put her over his knee. But when life takes an unexpected hit, and his world gets turned upside down, Kate proves to be more of an ally than a threat.

This is not the life he wanted, but now it's too late to go back. Shane must prove himself worthy to everyone who doubted him. He must prove he's much more than a simple man.

\"A perfect contemporary romance for fans of Colleen Hoover and Samantha Young.\"

He was always off-limits. Until the night he wasn't.

I always imagined my wedding day wrapped in pearls and perfection. Instead, it got buried under secrets and lies.

Riley Hawthorne, my best friend's hot and off-limits brother, is infuriatingly gorgeous, emotionally unavailable, and exactly the kind of complication I don't need. He's never looked twice at me—until everything falls apart and he's the only one around to pick up the pieces of my broken heart.

One night. One reckless decision. And suddenly, we're lying to everyone we love. We agreed to keep it casual because I know Riley doesn't do serious, but when life takes an unpredictable turn, we stumble into something real and raw that neither of us saw coming.

Now, Riley's the one holding on harder than ever before—even if it costs him everything in the end.

Bestselling and award-winning author Lydia Michaels weaves a gripping tale of revenge in this one-of-a-kind immortal world that masks centuries of secrets, lust, and violence.

Larissa Hostetler is on the run after an arranged marriage to Silus, her abusive, immortal husband. As Silus hunts for his disobedient wife, he plots her painful atonement. But Bishop King, the most powerful and eldest immortal of The Order, finds Larissa first, and he has plans of his own.

Meanwhile, a deadly vampire is slaughtering mortal women in the woods, drawing unwanted attention from the media.

Bestselling author Lydia Michaels weaves a ferociously addictive tale of immortal hunger, lust, and noble sacrifice in the haunting continuation of The Order of Vampires series.\"

Cain Hartzler has a tortured past and a score to settle. After losing his destined mate, he is sentenced to an eternal life of pain and solitary sacrifice. To serve a purpose, he enters a deadly crusade to hunt and destroy the lethal vampire butchering mortal females in the Pennsylvania woods outside of Jim Thorpe.

Foolish ambition leads news reporter Destiny Santos into dangerous territory. Risking her life for a story, she discovers a sinister army of feral vampires out for blood. Desperate to escape, she shoots the one immortal willing to protect her from certain death. Cain's honor is tested when the meddlesome news reporter tries to end his life–thereby endangering the life of his precious mate.

\"Passion erupts in this masterfully dark, enemies-to-lovers thriller from the bestselling and award-winning author—Lydia Michaels.\"

There is nothing more sacred than the immortal vow of bonded mates. But when Delilah Starling is transitioned against her will and taken captive by the savagely beautiful Christian Schrock, she pledges to fight his dominant rule to her very last breath.

Christian Schrock, an elder of The Order, believed it was his right to hunt and possessively claim his mortal mate. But his irrevocable actions have sparked a few challenges that he did not anticipate. Christian must now convince Delilah that she belongs to him, but the unruly, modern female refuses to see past the brutal betrayal that founded their relationship.

Subjected to living under the patriarchal reign of an ancient society, Delilah battles the oppressive traditions, refusing to submit to a life she did not choose and a man she does not love. When Delilah goes too far, there is hell to pay, but her mate and protector will not let her face the cost of her actions alone.

Lust and tension dominate this dark paranormal world where every choice comes with a consequence.

Callan MacGregor's tortured past is awakened when the woman he secretly loves is brutally attacked. His heart will not rest until vengeance is served.

Violence made me vicious, and my sins are too many to count.

When I look at her, I'm reminded of everything good and pure in this world.

My redemption is hopeless, so I keep my distance, fighting the temptation to get closer to her, even when her eyes and body invite me in.

Everyone I love disappears, so I must keep my distance to keep her safe. Distances and isolation are the price I must pay for the ruthless crimes I've committed.

But when I see her hurting, nothing, not even my past, can keep me away. She is mine to protect, and I will be her justice and protection from the true monsters in this ugly world.

Lose your innocence to one of the wickedest men alive in this DARK and TWISTED Peter Pan retelling by bestselling and award-winning author Lydia Michaels.

Some adventures lead to happily ever afters. Others lead to ruin.

Wendy Darling is desperate to escape the gilded cage of her childhood, but her parents’ obsession with wealth and status has her trapped. Suffocated by their expectations and starved for freedom, she runs off with the duplicitous billionaire Peter Pangbourn to the Never Lands—an exclusive playground for the lawless elite. But once there, Wendy finds herself stranded and at Peter’s mercy—powerless to get home.

When pirates storm the island, Wendy is kidnapped by the cruel and vengeful Captain James Hook. James has waited a lifetime to punish his brother, Peter, and he plans to use Wendy’s innocence to exact his revenge.

Dark secrets are revealed in a battle of wills, and a dangerous obsession ensues between Wendy and her ruthless captor as his dominance is met with stunning surrender. While Hook is determined to dominate and destroy Wendy, she is set on saving his dark soul.

“Fans of Haunting Adeline and Twisted Love will devour this enemies-to-lovers, dark billionaire romance! Hush Darling sizzles with taboo degradation as Wendy, a virgin captive, faces off with one of the most vengeful and villainous pirates alive.”

Bestselling and award-winning author Lydia Michaels unleashes a scorching psychological romance that breaks the rules of fidelity and redefines perfect in a why-choose love story that delivers!

On the outside, our life looks perfect.

Inside, I’m screaming.

I crave order because I want to be a good girl. But good girls aren’t broken, and I’m shattered in ways I’ve spent my entire life hiding. One day, the bad secrets inside of me will slip out.

My husband saved me from a monster, so I want to make him proud. I live for his praise. I do as I’m told, and I never let the pain inside of me breathe anymore. But it’s there, dormant and waiting to get out.

When an unexpected guest shows up unannounced, I discover my husband has secrets from his past, too. For the first time, I fear I might lose him. My version of perfect is no longer a priority as I try to become everything I think he needs to save our marriage.

What we’re doing is wrong. What does it say about me if–deep down–I enjoy the depravity?

I want to revel in the pain as much as I need to escape the chaos. My fear of losing him consumes me. The ache, the sting, the burn…I’m falling apart, and nothing seems to ground me except for his touch–but HE is not my husband, and yet he seems to be the key to our future.

I existed for years, content to please one powerful man. Could I please two? That’s not something a good girl would do.

A Dark Reverse Harem Romance

She broke into the wrong house.

Now, three brutal men will make her pay—with her body, her secrets, and her soul.

When runaway heiress Marigold Calder crashes into the forbidden Isles of Kassel during a blizzard, she's desperate for shelter. The isolated mountain lodge seems like salvation, until she realizes it belongs to The Bears, three massive Russian brothers who own the most exclusive—and dangerous—private men's club in Kassel.

HUNTER – The violent one who takes what he wants

STONE – The cold mastermind who'll break her with a single look

ASH – The deceptively gentle one who's anything but safe

In Kassel, trespassing has a price. And once they catch her sleeping in their bed, eating their food, and wearing their clothes, these territorial predators decide she’s theirs.

Trapped by the storm and their obsession, Marigold discovers a dark connection between their families that turns their hospitality into a hunt for revenge. Now, they won’t just keep her, they’ll ruin her.

A scorching hot, morally grey, billionaire reverse harem featuring possessive anti-heroes, forced proximity, primal dominance, explosive chemistry, and a heroine who refuses to break. This standalone dark romance contains mature themes and explicit scenes that will leave you breathless.

Step into their den... if you dare.

“Bestselling author, Lydia Michaels, delivers a dark, billionaire romance with all of The Great Gatsby's champagne charm and The Hunger Games' high stakes, in this deliciously twisted retelling of Jack and the Beanstalk. For readers who like their heroes morally gray, their steam scorching, and their happily-ever-afters dripping with secrets, Feast of the Fallen has it all!”

They call it a game. But games have rules, and mine were written in blood.

I was starving when I applied to The Feast of the Fallen—a twisted hunt where the world’s most elite billionaires pay millions to chase women like me through a gilded labyrinth until dawn.

One million dollars just to play. Two million if I'm caught.

I told myself I'd run, hide, and take the money–unharmed–so I could finally escape the poverty that's been choking me my entire life.

But I didn't count on him.

Jack Thorne, the phantom host, who built an empire from ash and blood, watched from the shadows while men hunted like monsters in a storm of his own creation. But when a reckless guest breaks his rules and goes too far, Jack steps out of the darkness, revealing himself as the most dangerous player of all–one who looks like a savior but will stop at nothing for revenge.

Jack doesn't negotiate with giants. He watches them gorge themselves on power until their true nature spills out. Then he brings the axe.
