A JEFFERSON PITCH BLACK HALLOWEEN ROMANCE

No one ever tells you that safety is an illusion.

For example, Leila thinks she’s safe.
She thinks she left her demons buried in the past.
She thinks she got away. Abandoned me after everything I did, everything I became for her.

Was it the blood on my hands? The monster in my veins?
I would change it if I could. But I can’t. And now I don’t want to.

She's going to learn that evil doesn't die.
It waits and plots.

Twelve days until Halloween.
Twelve days to remind her.
Of me. Of us. Of the promises she broke.

By the time I’m done, she’s going to learn what it means to be mine. Even if I have to break her to make it happen. And this time, there is no escape.

Not from our past.
Definitely not from me.

But I'm not the only one looking for her. Not the only one who wants her back. Too bad for them. I don't share.

And I've already killed once to keep her.

Title: My Dearest Monster

Author: Sean Fletcher

Genre: YA Fantasy

Cover Designer: BookFly Designs

Publisher: Aethon

Publication Date: Oct. 28^th, 2025

Hosted by: Lady Amber’s PR

Blurb:

Unwillingly bonded to a Demon. Together, they can save humanity.

This news shatters Kiara’s life: her boyfriend, James—childhood love and the one she was certain she’d spend forever with—is dead. Now, he wants to talk to her.

Damian, the demon now possessing James’ body, and one of the many monsters prowling amongst mostly ignorant humans, couldn’t care less about Kiara. Until she tries to kill him and he’s forced to make a contract with her to stay alive.

Her first love is now her monstrous enemy.

With Kiara and Damian begrudgingly bonded to one another, both become part of a tenuous alliance with a secret organization of monster hunters; Damian to search for who—or what—is trying to bring a cataclysmic number of monsters to their world; Kiara to fulfill her end of the contract and free herself from him.

Damian’s demonic personality might be as sharp as his teeth, but beneath his monstrous façade he’s keeping secrets. And the closer he and Kiara grow, the more Kiara learns she might be able to get James back after all. If Damian hasn’t destroyed him for good.

And if they don’t become prey to the very things they’re hunting.

Legendborn meets The Luminaries in My Dearest Monster, a monstrous contemporary fantasy filled with sinister magic, surprising twists, and a slow-burn enemies-to-lovers romance.

NOW AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “My new obsession!

I devoured this in one sitting. Leo Holt is the arrogant, broken, brooding bad boy of my dreams, and the heroine? An actual queen. I was hooked from the bonfire kiss to the final twist. If you love cruel games, sizzling tension, and girls who fight back, this book is for you."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Best bully romance of the year.

This book has EVERYTHING.

💋 First kiss at a bonfire? Check.

👑 Arrogant alpha who secretly cares? Check.

💲 Rich kids, power plays, and private school chaos? DOUBLE CHECK.

The writing is sharp, the pacing flawless, and the heat? Let's just say I highlighted a lot."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Read this if you love Zodiac Academy, Elite, or Cruel Prince.

The Gold Royal Oak setting gave dark academia perfection, and the dynamics between Leo and the heroine were FIRE. Every time he called her “Gitanilla” I MELTED. I need this adapted to Netflix immediately.

#LeoHoltForever #PromKingFanClub

I kissed the king of Royal Oaks Prep. Now I’m his favorite target.

Leo Holt is rich, ruthless, and ridiculously hot.
Captain of the basketball team.
Worshipped by the school.
Feared by everyone else.

And me?
I'm the new girl. The nobody.
The mistake he never saw coming.

One stolen kiss at a summer bonfire—that’s all it took to paint a target on my back.
Now he’s made it his mission to destroy me, one brutal rumor at a time.

But I don’t scare easy.
I don’t cry in the bathroom.
And I sure as hell don’t bow to bullies—no matter how good they look in a varsity jacket.

Leo Holt thinks he can break me?
He’s dead wrong.

Because I’ve got secrets of my own.
And when the queen rises… the king falls.

Blurb:

Small towns never forget. Neither do first loves.

Rose McAllister thought she had her life figured out—coaching her women’s softball team, running her business, and keeping her heart under lock and key. But when Acen Wheeler returns to Pickwick Bend after twenty years, the past comes rushing back with him… and he doesn’t come empty-handed. A Polaroid from their youth. A confession that shakes her carefully guarded world.

As if that weren’t enough, Briana—the girl who once stole both Acen and Rose’s trust—shows up polished, poisonous, and ready to stir the town gossip mill. And then there’s Declan, the steady newcomer who makes Rose laugh when she least expects it, offering the kind of safe and easy affection she’s never known.

Now Rose is caught between what was and what could be, between a love that scarred her and a chance at something new. With old wounds reopened, small-town whispers growing louder, and playoff season on the line, Rose must decide whether she can forgive the boy who broke her heart—or if it’s finally time to choose a different path.

Blind Devotion: A Dark Mafia Romance: Letters of Ruin
Addy Anders
(Letters of Ruin, #1)
Publication date: September 29th 2025
Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Dark Romance, Mafia, Romance

PERSETTA

Lost until HIM
I thought the night fate brought us together was the worst night of my life.
I was wrong.
Blinded and with no memory, how was I supposed to know any better?
He’s cold-blooded, cunning, and dangerous—the head of the French mafia.
He’s everything I shouldn’t want in a man, but I do.
For my safety, I have to seduce him.
Instead, with every threat, he’s the one who draws me further into his web.
It’s so easy to fall into his arms as my demons slowly release from their cages.
I feel safe with him.
Until I remember the truth.

ADRIEN

Broken until HER
I walled off my shredded soul and black heart long ago.
No one ever gets in anymore, and yet my guard lowered for her.
She stole away on my boat, injured and with no memories.
The only clue to who she once was—a tattoo on her calf.
This woman. She’s my past. My present. My future.
The one who got away, in more than one sense.
Years ago, I broke our families’ alliance and turned my back on her.
Last night, I was hired to kill her.
My little survivor. My butterfly. If only I recognized her…

EXCERPT:

Just like yesterday, his palm pressed against my throat, but this time he didn’t squeeze. His thumb brushed up and down over my pulse point. His skin trembled against my own—warm, firm, unyielding, and yet somehow vulnerable too. Maybe that was what drew me to him, because it wasn’t rational how much I wanted him closer, his arms around me, his body against mine.

We were suspended like that for seconds…minutes. It could have been hours. Somehow deep inside, I felt protected for the first time in forever. It didn’t make sense. It didn’t have to, but in my jailer’s arms, in this moment, the void melted away and lightness spread. I wanted more, but the instant I reached for him, before I even touched him, he jerked away.

He cleared his throat.

“Never ask that of me again.”

“Or what?”

He stomped across the room and threw the door open so hard it crashed against the wall and skittered back in scattered croaks.

A strangled laugh choked out of me. Pain shot up my side, and tears seeped under my eye dressings. None of this was funny, but his switch in moods was giving me whiplash, especially after the lightness of that memory.

“You don’t possess a touch of sunshine, do you? You’re angry. Tormented, so you hide behind violence thinking it makes you so tough, but you’re nothing but a big ol’ grump, trying to spread his own misery.”

“You know nothing about me.”

He didn’t stick around for my rebuttal. The door battered the frame on his way out, and the lock clicked loudly into place. His absence left me lonelier than before, and I wasn’t quite sure how to feel about that. One thing I was almost certain of though. He didn’t really want to kill me. The next time I saw him, I’d put that to the test.

Author Bio:

Addy Anders writes dark romance meant to tug hard on your heartstrings and never let go. Her books deliver deliciously possessive anti-heroes, strong heroines, a touch of angst to set you on edge, and a cocktail of spice.

Addy loves to travel, preferably outside of major cities. When she’s not writing or out in the wilderness, she can be found with her kindle and a very large cup of tea surrounded by her very supportive husband, two kiddos, and two fur babies.
