GAMES OF THE DAMNED BOOK 2
Annalise never came to the palace to rule. She came to help humanity survive.
But when blood awakens something ancient in her veins—and binds her to two princes who refuse to command what they can choose—the Court’s carefully controlled future begins to unravel.
Crucible of Blood is a dark, sensual dystopian romance about engineered power, chosen bonds, and the danger of refusing the roles you’re meant to play.
This is not a story about taking the throne. It’s about ending the game.
They tried to crown her.
She chose something else.
"The danger, the court, the vampires all so hungry. Annelise was the only one who could have tamed those princes. I try not to have a favorite but dang, Kael was as it for me!
This series is criminally under hyped. I will certainly be sharing." - Amazon Review

Jewels of Clay by Cat Collins is a wild and hilarious fantasy ride that's unlike any gnome story you've ever heard. Terra, our quirky gnome protagonist (no, they are not like the garden statue types with red pointy hats), wants out of the human world and back to magical Aetheria. But there's a catch – she has to impress the Wolves, the gatekeepers to Aetheria. And trust me, they're not your typical big bad wolves. When Terra has to cook them a meal (sacrificing a fairy along the way), things get seriously complicated. She enters into a high-stakes contract of trials with a hot wolf judge and failing means her life is on the line. This book is a rollercoaster of humor, tension, and a sizzling connection on the brink of ignition, and you won't want to get off!
Cat Collins' writing shines in Jewels of Clay as she skillfully weaves a narrative that balances plot, pace, action, characters, and themes with finesse. The plot is engaging, offering a unique twist on the classic fantasy journey, and the pace keeps readers hooked from start to finish. The humor injected into the story adds a refreshing layer of charm, making it a joy to read. The characters are well-developed and relatable as they grapple with their heritage, self-discovery, and the courage to confront bullies. Themes of identity, resilience, and the power of connection are expertly explored. Overall, Jewels of Clay is a delightful read that combines fantasy, humor, and heart, making it a must-read for fans of the genre.

Reindeer Games series
Paranormal Romance featuring Santa's "naughty" reindeer shifters. Each book is based on a Christmas Classic movie you remember vrom your childhood.
Only, I've taken some liberties with the source material...
ALL BOOKS IN THIS SERIES ARE 'WHY CHOOSE' with candy canes crossing!
"I'll never look at Rudolph or Jingle Bells in the same way again. And that's a good thing!" --Amazon Review
Dancing With Dancer is book three in the spicy, laugh-out-loud Reindeer Games series, where every naughty reindeer gets a mission from Santa… and ends up tangled in holiday romance. This one’s a mashup of Dickens’ A Christmas Carol and Dancing with the Stars! It’s an MMMF “Why Choose” Christmas romance with zero cheating, zero cliffhangers, and enough heat to melt the North Pole.

This is another take on a classic Christmas movie. There, I said it. Die Hard is a Christmas movie. (Feel free to email your arguments )Cupid is held hostage in a department store with a hot shifter cop, her bestie with bennies elf pal, a& the literal embodiment of the North Wind. And Santa too.
Gryla & her Yule Lads are going to be permanently on the anughty list for this!
This book is a MMMF romance and for mature readers who don’t mind candy canes crossing, and a good measure of spice in their hot chocolate.
Christmas Smut. Yep, that's what I said.
After Rudy (yeah, the one with the red nose) broke Vixen's heart, Santa sends her on a "vacation" to the South Pole.
But Santa's version of vacation is to break into teams and play holiday games for twelve days. Vixen gets stuck on a team with a lumberjack yeti, Jack Frost, and the North Pole's sexiest elf & they're determined to help her get over Rudy.
If she make it through without falling for one (or all) of them, it'll be a Christmas miracle.
"I love the Dancing show aspect-Super unique and quirky. I love the chemistry between the characters. There are plenty of Spicy scenes, but there is also romance and tension too.
I look forward to reading more. --Amazon Review
"Then there's the spice....Whew!!! Almost had to turn the AC on. I love these books and their spicy play on the Holidays soooooo much!" --Amazon Review
Book 4 Coming Christmas 2026!
Re-membering series
After an off-season drunken naked hockey game sliced my manhood off, I was whisked away to the secret island of Dr. Horatio Frankenpeen who used a little bit of medical science and a whole lot of magic to restore my crotch to its former glory. Get this: using a magic piece of wood from a very famous puppet.
It worked exactly like it should if you know what I mean, so I went back to my life as the star of the San Antonio Tower NHL team. Only after a small slip of the tongue at an interview, I was given a special media consultant to shadow my every move so the bad press didn’t get worse. When I started spouting the lies she fed me, I noticed a problem down below. My replacement eggplant grew every time I lied.
That left me with a conundrum: tell the truth and get booted off the team or lie and grow right out of my jock strap.
Which do you think I chose?
Disclaimer: At present, it is not medically possible to reattach an appendage with a piece of wood. (Come on, future. Don’t let us down!), so please don’t hack off any eggplants as a result of this story. And don’t worry, there will not be any splinters.
This spicy unhinged series is about real men... who just happened to get their 'members' injured.
But have no fear, Dr. Frankenpeen is here to help them be RE-MEMBERED.
M/F spicy hockey romance based on Pinocchio, only it's not his nose that grows.
Book 2, Willy, coming in July!
"Oh. My. God! This book is hilarious! I could not stop laughing the entire time I was reading it. Is it silly? Absolutely and it’s intended to be silly. More eggplant jokes than you could ever imagine! Also the spicy scenes were on point. Nico is such a smooth talker, and Laurel trying to maintain her professionalism… let’s just say she has a hard time
I absolutely loved this read!
Fellow readers, PLEASE read the description. It’s meant to be satirical, spicand unrealistic. If you have a sense of humor you will get a kick out of this novella!" -- Amazon review
Each spicy novella is based on a childhood movie. (I do that a lot) and as one reviewer said, "If you're a Karen, this book is not for you."
But if you love a lot of laughs in your spicy good times, and you've got a lot classic movies in your head from your youth, you'll love these books!
You may not be ready for this one.

Curse of Between series
Welcome to Between, Nevada. Where the residents know there's more than one side to every curse.
Luc’s White Load: I’d peaked at twenty-two, developing a billion-dollar cleaning product that took over the world, but left me with nothing but piles of cash and a big void in my life where passion should’ve been. When I got hit with the Wayward Warbler’s curse, I thought hey, at least it would give me something to do with my days. I didn’t realize Cordelia Park and her baby girl would appear right after that bird. I was into Delia instantly and when I started reading minds (thanks curse) I knew she wanted me too, but her aversion to our age difference was a lot to overcome. Good thing I knew just what moves to make thanks to that curse. I just had to hope she still wanted me when I admitted what I’d done to get her between the sheets.
Brynne’s Dirty Laundry: Forensic accounting was my life. Literally. I did nothing but eat, sleep, and account. I hoped for a promotion to get me to Vegas where the real work was, but I had to solve the Gallo brothers’ case before being considered. I hit one dead end after another until I got cursed. It led to intel that would close the case, but I had to get the grumpy middle brother, Kane Gallo, to come clean. When the curse manifested and I could project my thoughts to make people do what I wanted, I accidentally asked Kane to teach me about sex instead of his money laundering. Oops. I blame his sex appeal for that. And for a round girl like me, the only way I’d ever be able to snag someone that hunky, so I went with it. If I played my cards right, I’d get an education from the hottest man in Between and a promotion.
"A creative beauty. -- Amazon Review
This is a unique series told in a different way. Each book contains two stories--one light, one dark. They're told one at a time with a few overlapping events happening in each.
The Wayward Warbler belongs to the witch in Between. When his feather lands on two unsuspecting people, they're cursed. They must work together to figure out the meaning oif the curse before it becomes permanent.
These are spicy M/F urban fantasy romances featuring two couples in each book.
Fallon’s Light Roast: Having a wreck and getting a ticket were just the beginning of my problems. Wait, no, just the beginning of my curse, if you could believe that nonsense. I didn’t have the time or the brainpower to believe in curses. I had a new coffee shop to run and bills to pay, including a ticket for the wreck I didn’t cause. Imagine my surprise when I started seeing people’s futures in their coffee cups. Didn’t have a choice about believing in that stupid curse then. When I saw the future of my hottest customer featuring me on my, ahem, knees, I suddenly wasn’t sure if disbelieving was a good thing. That was definitely a future I could support.
Esme’s Black Tea: Everyone in Between knew about the witch’s cursed bird. Heck, my family’s business profited every time that bird appeared. I just never thought it would show up in my life. At the worst time ever. I’d been on my way to break up with my boyfriend and put Between in my rearview when the Wayward Warbler struck, chaining me to the town until I got rid of the curse. I figured it would be easy, but when I started actually seeing people’s pasts in my tea leaves, including the grease monkey fixing my car and the past we’d shared, easy was the last thing it was..
This book is really good. I didn’t read the first one but the book is great by itself. You get all the information you need to stay engaged and I could not put it down. I loved the light and dark aspect of it and it kept me guessing. If I had to choose I pick the ‘dirty’ laundry half. Would read again and recommend for anyone who likes supernatural and romance. -- Amazon Review
