We publish books for readers who want emotional depth alongside their steam—stories where the tension builds as deliberately as the connection, and every happily ever after feels earned.
Our catalog features multiple pen names writing everything from scorching hockey romance to cozy small-town Vermont love stories to dark mafia tales with morally gray heroes.
