The Princess and the Pack

review to come!
I think I’m going to DNF this. It is not at all what I was expecting.
As an omega, yearning to find a pack of alphas to satisfy my every desire is as natural as breathing. As a princess, however, such a dream is out of the question. My station dictates that I settle for one, and only one, alpha so as to preserve our royal bloodlines.

How My Fake Alien Boyfriend Learned to Cook and Saved the Family Business

Lola is out of luck and almost out of time. After moving home to take over her family’s restaurant, Southern Charm, Lola has been working her butt off to keep the place open. But business is getting worse, and she’s not sure how much longer she can hold on. If only wishing on a shooting star could solve all her problems…
Kal is an outcast with something to prove. When Kal became a human expert, he had one goal in mind: to go on a mission to Earth. But Kal can’t stop screwing up at work—including accidentally launching himself through space and landing in Roswell Falls, a small town in the mountains of Tennessee.
Mistaking Kal for a job seeker, Lola hires him as a line cook and quickly realizes he’s a bit…unusual. Even stranger—she finds Kal charming. And kind. And pretty much everything she could have wished for. Except Kal has an out-of-this-world secret, and Lola’s already got enough on her plate.
Pearl Bound by Natalie Bergman

In the waning days of the Gilded Age, Irish immigrant Eve Kelly accepts a coveted position at Greythorne, a mansion built on wealth, excess, and ruthless power. Behind its glittering façade, the Rennard family preys on the vulnerable—especially the women who serve them.
As Eve is drawn into the house’s seductive, dangerous orbit—and into a forbidden intimacy with the daughter of the family—she begins to uncover a legacy of violence hidden beneath chandeliers and silk.
But the house is not the only thing with a history.
Something ancient stirs in Eve’s blood—a power inherited from generations of women who survived by becoming something more than obedient. As predation tightens its grip, the servant they meant to consume becomes the reckoning they never saw coming.
Pearl Bound is a gothic historical horror novel steeped in female rage, class tension, queer desire, and the terrifying cost of autonomy.
