Victoria bright

Victoria Bright doesn’t write monsters—she writes men who would burn the world down just to keep the woman they love warm.

Specializing in lighter dark romance with heart, heat, and just the right amount of danger, Victoria crafts swoon-worthy antiheroes who are lethal in the streets but soft in the sheets. Her stories are filled with fierce loyalty, forbidden love, and heroines who never have to question where they stand—right at the center of their protector’s world.

If you love morally gray men with golden retriever energy for one woman only, welcome to your new favorite addiction.

With each book, Ember pushes the limits of desire, power, and redemption, crafting addictive tales that keep readers on edge. Whether it’s a relentless anti-hero staking his claim or a heroine navigating the depths of her own darkness, one thing is certain—her stories aren’t for the faint of heart.

Are you ready to surrender to the shadows?

Welcome to Ember Michaels’ world—where nothing is safe, and love is never simple.

TORI SULLIVAN

Tori Sullivan doesn’t just write stories—she crafts nightmares laced with seduction, terror, and the grotesque beauty of the unknown. Specializing in erotic horror, her work drags readers into dark, visceral worlds where pleasure and fear intertwine, and the human psyche is pushed to its limits.

With a signature blend of psychological torment, forbidden desires, and unrelenting dread, Tori’s stories challenge boundaries and awaken the primal urges lurking beneath the surface. Each book is an invitation to step into the abyss—where the monsters aren’t always the ones hiding in the dark.

Enter if you dare. But once you do, there’s no turning back.
