📖 Take Me to Hell 📖
👤 Sakura Black 👤
📚 Playing with Demons 1 📚

OBS: livro em inglês

How far would you go to survive?

Everyone knows demons are evil. They’re vicious monsters hungry for your blood, body and soul.

All I knew was that I couldn’t survive another day on the run.

Betrayed by my coven, I teetered on the edge of ruin, caught in the crosshairs of the genocidal cult who murdered my family.

But I had a crazy plan to save my life. Too bad it would probably cost me my soul.

Out of time and out of options, I’m forced to summon a wicked demon for protection—a sin-soaked king with a devilish smirk and hunger in his glowing eyes.

Salvation and damnation entwine as we strike a deal. But the path to freedom is paved with desire and darkness.

Can I defeat the evil hunting me? Or will the monster I summoned devour me first?

Take Me to Hell is a full-length, fast-burn standalone romance, with fangs, tail action and a possessive demon who won't let his witch escape his clawed clutches. It is intended for mature readers.

📖 Brutal Hearts 📖
👤 Jordan Grant 👤
📚 A Wicked Empire Standalone 2 📚

OBS: livro em inglês

— Archie —

I was born into an easy life, and I like it that way.

Easy money.
Easy sex.
Easy … every-damn-thing.

But that luxury came with a price, and it’s almost time to pay it.

It’s senior year, my last one of freedom before I inherit the family empire and watch my dad gleefully sail into retirement on the tails of his sixth—seventh?—divorce from my mother.

I’m the golden boy of Arlean University, the first-line running back with so many touchdowns they call me Bring-It-Home Blakely. Men want to be me. Women want to be beneath me.

I do what I want. When I want. To whomever I want.
I am revered. Adored. Utterly untouchable.
Or so I thought.

A red-headed transfer student with a know-it-all complex and Satan’s temper threatens to ruin my birthright.
She saw something she shouldn’t have and stuck her nose where it didn’t belong.
Then, she smiled at me when my father introduced her as his fiancé.

Game on, future Mrs. Blakely.

— Layne —

I have fought for everything I’ve ever had.

Food, shelter, safety, life.

Twenty-one years ago, I was born in the wrong place at the wrong time to the wrong woman.
I learned to survive on my own and to do whatever it takes—beg, borrow, and steal—to stay alive.
Every night for as long as I can remember, I have dreamed of vengeance, and no one, especially the god of my new college, will stand in my way.

I don’t believe in gods anyway.
I don’t believe in forgiveness either.
I believe in blood for blood and pain for pain, and I will make it rain down from my hands in a thunderstorm.

I’ll destroy anyone who stands between me and what’s mine, and I won’t shed a tear while I do.
There is no quid pro quo in my world. It’s take it or leave it, all or nothing.
Get out of my way, golden boy, or I'll tarnish your gilded armor black before this is over.

Author's Note: Brutal Hearts is a dark enemies-to-lovers, college romance. It features mature themes including an explosive heat level, bullying, and, like my other novels, struggles with mental illness.

📖 Echo 📖
👤 Chani Lynn Feener 👤

OBS: livro em inglês

The Devils of Vitality always hit their mark.

Rabbit Trace is a musical prodigy with a secret.

Ever since an event that took place a year ago, he gets terrible stage fright before every performance. With a famous mother who's dedicated her entire life to her craft, and the weight of her expectations heavy on his shoulders, Rabbit is only one panic attack away from crumbling. He knows it'll be easier to escape if he stops running from the memory of that night, but he's stubborn and doesn't want to remember something so horrible his mind thought fit to erase it for him. Monotony has helped him make it through, and he's settled into a dull routine that keeps his mind occupied, the worst of the attacks limited to just before performances. That is until one of the infamous Devils of Vitality suddenly takes notice and decides to invade his life, whether he reciprocates or not.

Baikal Void has many titles.

Each of them comes with a responsibility attached to it. Future Dominus, head of the Vitality Brumal Mafia, is just one of them. He's always known he'd one day have to take the crown, he just never realized it'd be so soon. With his father dying and the inevitable changing of power looming, Baikal struggles to keep his deranged nature under control as he grapples with the upcoming loss. Then one night he's dragged to a recital for his university and sees him for the first time. After one glance he knows he's found his saving grace in Rabbit, the reserved musician who looks like he's battling demons of his own. Just like that, he's got a new title to add to the list. He's going to be the owner of one little ethereal bunny.

Rabbit doesn't understand Baikal's sudden and intense interest, or why the Brumal Prince has gone out of his way to collect enough dirt on his mom to force his hand. Blackmailed into a relationship of sorts, Rabbit fights against Baikal's constant advances and his own tumultuous feelings. Everything Baikal inflicts on him is wrong and twisted, and yet the longer he's made to endure, the more codependent Rabbit finds himself becoming. Baikal promises freedom from the predetermined fate he's always been a slave to, but only if he gives himself over to him completely.

And if he doesn't do so willingly? A devil is always prepared to take what they want, and Baikal Void is no exception.

Trigger Warning: This is a stand-alone dark romance which means there are many themes that some might find disturbing. Some of these include, but are not limited to, dub-con, violence, a seriously obsessed male lead, and explicit sexual content not suitable for all readers. Please be sure to read the Author's Note for a complete list of warnings! HEA guarantee!

📖 Blood Feud 📖
👤 Moira Kane 👤
📚 Dragon Brides 1 📚

OBS: livro em inglês

A legacy built on a lie.

Sophia is a bored and lonely princess, more content to live out her days locked away in her chambers than facing the increasingly grotesque suitors her father forces on her. With her younger brother destined for the throne, there isn’t much value to her but in a marriage alliance. And so, she is destined to live out her days as the trophy wife of some fat merchant or lecherous lord, occasionally bearing children to bolster the ranks of the wealthy and powerful.

But trouble is brewing in the crumbling streets of Calos. While the future king sits pretty on his throne and dines on fancy foods, there are whispers of rebellion among the poor and downtrodden people. At the same time a dragon has taken up residence in Calos Valley—the first in fifty years.

With no valiant hero like her famous grandfather, Saint George the dragon slayer, Sophia’s father turns to the old way to ward off the beast—a maiden sacrifice. What better choice than the daughter that threatens her brother’s reign?

Sophia is no trembling damsel, however, and the dragon is not at all who—or what—he appears to be.

OBS: livro em inglês

I can’t hire her.

The woman has no boundaries, no filters, and no freaking limits.

And my overwhelming desire to plow her would likely prove problematic if she became my assistant.

Bo Luxom is everything I never knew I wanted in a woman.

She’s sugar and spice, and she's stronger than I could ever pretend to be despite all my efforts… She’s also eight-months round because her “breeding kink went too far,” and it’s doing things to me.

Down on her luck, Bo needs this job — and as much as she’ll hate admitting it, she needs me too.
But I need her more.

Basically allergic to life, I've subsisted on a lonely diet of exclusion and restrictions with my only strength coming from maintaining total control.
Dominance and rules were my only tools until Bo took the lead and gave me something better — something I’ve always coveted. Kindness.

It’s the most potent weapon of seduction I’ve ever encountered, and I'm hooked.
I will kneel at her feet if she wills it. For her, I’ll surender my ordered life into beautiful chaos.

She’s everything I’ve spent a lifetime avoiding so I could remain strong, but I opened my locked doors for a beautiful stranger, and now I’m in the weakest position imaginable…


I’m f*¢king in love.
And I’ll do anything to keep her.

I loved her even more when she had another man’s baby.

But I hate her for what she did, a chess move in a game of unforgivable sin. I hate myself even more for what I’m going to do to her. I wanted her gone, but I was the one who left. Now, I’ve returned, and I have no intention of leaving again.

This is my campus, and it’s time to pay for your sins, little mouse, because I am a vicious king.

— Molly —

I loved him the first day I met him on the playground, when he was all gangly elbows and knees.

When we buried our toes in the sandbox and pretended we didn’t have legs.

On our first day of middle school when he smiled at me across the quad.

He was my white knight, my protector, the one who always made sure I was okay.

But that boy’s dead and gone, and I killed him.

I can’t undo what happened.

I never meant to hurt him. I never meant to hurt anyone.

I was the nudge that toppled the dominos.

Hold my hand, E, and let’s find our way out of the shadows. Before we are both lost to the dark.

Note from the author: Vicious Love is a dark enemies-to-lovers, college romance. It features mature themes including an incendiary heat level, bullying, teenage pregnancy, suicide, and, like my other novels, struggles with mental illness.

It is a standalone novel but part of the larger Wicked Empire universe, which follows characters introduced in my Voclain Academy series after they leave high school and enter adulthood. Reading the Voclain Academy series is not required to enjoy this book.

📖 Black Heart 📖
👤 Moira Kane 👤
📚 Dragon Brides 2 📚

OBS: livro em inglês

The story of a beauty and a beast reimagined.

Mara never dreamed of escape. Not really. How can a bird caged all her life ever think to fly? When a chance opportunity presents itself for the princess of Dunhill to flee her upcoming marriage and the cruel family that arranged it, she spreads her wings. But fate has other plans.

After narrowly surviving an encounter with the fabled Beast of the Blackwood—a dragon that stalks the forest that separates Dunhill from neighboring kingdoms—she finds herself in the unwilling company of Baron Gannon Black. He is mercurial at best, downright rude at worst.

The Black estate is teeming with secrets and the brusque baron is none too keen for Mara to unravel the mystery of the Black line. But hiding himself from the princess becomes impossible as he learns she is much more than the timid, bland daughter of the king. Can he keep her cloaked from the family that seeks to drag her back to her prison of etiquette and expectation or will her presence bring the long kept secrets of the Black family to light?

Anatomia de um Escândalo
Sarah Vaughan
Record, 2023

Quando um político é acusado de um crime terrível, sua mulher quer acreditar na versão dele dos fatos. Mas a advogada de acusação fará de tudo para condená-lo. Anatomia de um escândalo é um thriller psicológico eletrizante, adaptado para uma série da Netflix.

O marido de Sophie, James, é um pai carinhoso, um homem de boa aparência e um político carismático e bem-sucedido. Mas foi acusado de um crime terrível. Sophie tem certeza de sua inocência e está desesperada para proteger a família das mentiras que ameaçam destruí-la.

Kate é responsável pela acusação - uma advogada experiente que sabe que a aplicação da lei não é uma questão de provar a veracidade de um caso, mas de vencer na argumentação. Ainda assim, ela busca a verdade em todo processo que assume. Kate está certa de que James é culpado, por isso vai fazer de tudo para que ele pague pelo crime que cometeu.

Quem é James de fato? A vítima de um terrível mal-entendido ou o autor de um crime sórdido?

Em meio a esse escândalo político, Sophie e Kate travam uma batalha particular por suas vidas. Será que o casamento de Sophie tem bases sólidas o suficiente para sobreviver a isso? Ela acredita mesmo no marido? E será Kate forte o bastante para enfrentar os demônios do seu passado? Nessa busca arriscada por justiça, só há uma certeza: esse caso vai deixar marcas eternas na vida de todos os envolvidos, seja qual for o veredito.

Adaptado para uma minissérie original da Netflix, Anatomia de um escândalo é um livro que mistura The Good Wife e The Affair. Dialogando com os movimentos feministas do século XXI, como o # metoo, essa é uma história envolvente que poderia muito bem ser real.
