Ocean Curls

"I'm an ordinary waiter, but I can see people's fate, including Shifters. Like all children, I was tested for magic when I was only a few days old. Since my specific bloodline is unknown and my magic is unidentifiable, I was marked with a delicate swirling pattern around my upper right arm. I do have magic, just as the tests showed, but it has never lined up with any known Magic species. I can't breathe fire like a dragon Shifter, or hex people who piss me off like Witches. I can't make potions like an Alchemist or seduce people like a Succubus. Now I don't mean to be unappreciative of the power I do have, it's interesting and all, but it just really doesn't pack much of a punch and most of the time it is just pretty much useless. My special magical skill is the ability to see threads of fate. Most of life is annoying enough for me, and what never occurred to me is that my mate is a rude, pompous nuisance. He's an Alpha and my friend's twin brother. --------------------------------------- “What are you doing? This is my home, you can't just let yourself in!” I try and keep my voice firm but when he turns and fixes me with his golden eyes I shrink back. The look he gives me is imperious and I automatically drop my eyes to the floor as is my habit. Then I force myself to look back up again. He doesn't notice me looking up because he's already looked away from me. He's being rude, I refuse to show that he's scaring me, even though he most definitely is. He glances around and after realising that the only place to sit is the little table with its two chairs he points to it. “Sit.” he orders. I glare at him. Who is he to order me around like this? How can someone this obnoxious possibly be my soul mate? Maybe I'm still asleep. I pinch my arm and my eyes water a little from the sting of pain."

Nevie, a waitress has been having the strangest dreams. Dreams that awaken desires that she didn't know she had. When wolf shifter, Derrick, slips into her booth she gets the feeling she’s met him before. Talon has fallen in love with his best friend. He's doing his best to keep her safe and keep his past hidden. Once his past comes knocking will he be able to protect his love or will it put her in danger? Omen has a secret but will he be able to keep it hidden or will it come out in the most dangerous way possible? Hurting Nevie beyond what he can fix.

Some loves are forbidden. Others are undeniable. Cameron Brooke is starting college with one goal: stay focused, stay invisible, and definitely stay away from boys like Fox Wilder—the charming, reckless son of the university chancellor. Fox is everything Cameron was warned about: cocky, chaotic, and dangerously attractive. But when they’re forced to share an apartment, Cameron’s carefully built walls begin to crack. For a closeted freshman raised by strict religious parents, falling for his roommate was never part of the plan. Fox isn’t looking for complications either—but there’s something about Cameron he can’t ignore. Enemies turn to allies, tension turns to temptation, and sparks fly in all the wrong—and right—ways. Kiss Me In The Dark is a steamy, enemies-to-lovers, forced proximity romance that burns slow… then explodes. Full of heat, heart, and hard truths, it’s about falling for the one person who sees through your walls—and makes you want to tear them down. They were supposed to be a mistake. But some mistakes feel too good to regret. Please read the author’s note for content warnings.
