Blurb:

Hockey’s most hated player just asked me to marry him. 

Connor Grace is the league’s bad boy–and my best friend’s worst enemy. 

He’s the fallen prince of a famous hotel chain dynasty. 

Me? I’m the foster kid who grew up to be a librarian. 

I never thought I’d end up in a marriage of convenience to make someone’s grandma happy, but here we are. 

I have no plans to kiss my husband for any reason other than show. 

I have no plans to fall in love with the arrogant man dressed in a custom suit hiding intricate tattoos. 

But when we’re alone, he drops the mask he wears for the rest of the world. 

He holds me like he means it when he says I’m his. And I want to believe him.

Too bad I learned early on that fairytales aren’t real, and nothing good lasts forever.



We have been fans of Dred from the beginning, and her story has only deepened my admiration for her. The characters were engaging, especially Dred, who found family and friends. It was heartwarming to see Connor's sisters step out of their comfort zone and embrace the beauty of life, with Dred playing a significant role in that transformation. Dred is a beloved member of the Babe Brigade, embraced by the group as part of their family. Connor, on the other hand, is the outsider, misunderstood by the team. Despite their different backgrounds, Dred and Connor have a special connection that is truly magical. Their chemistry is undeniable, and Dred sees Connor for who he truly is, beyond his wealth and hockey career. She sees his kindness and compassion, especially towards his grandmother and others. Watching their relationship evolve and grow was a rewarding journey with its ups and downs. On a side note, the friendship between Dred and Flip is heartwarming and fun, showcasing a strong bond between best friends. This is one of my top favorite reads for 2025, and one of our favorite couples as well. We loved everything about the story. The couple may have seemed like complete opposites, but they had more in common than meets the eye and were perfect for one another. The romance was beautiful, and the heartwarming moments between them really touched our hearts. The interactions with Meem's scenes melted our hearts, and we felt the love springing from the pages themselves. The family that this couple created together was truly heartwarming. This emotional tale with its family drama was balanced by Dred's affectionate personality, beautiful smiles, and huge, welcoming heart.

Naughty or nice... Why choose?

Aside from her name, Noelle has never been a particularly festive person—or a very lucky one. So getting stood up by her supposed scent-matches two days before Christmas? Didn’t really surprise her.

Noelle can’t blame anyone but herself. Based on her past, she ought to have known better than to believe her silliest wish had finally come true. This year, she vows things will be different. No more holiday cheer or delusional dreams…

Until her match service calls to place her with a new pack of potential mates.

At their first meeting, Elias and Carson obliterate all of Noelle’s plans for a lonely holiday. Unlike her other supposed “matches”, they truly want her. They’re also pretty much perfect. A kind, gallant pro-goalie and a world-famous coach with just enough dominance to make her knees weak.

There’s only one problem.
Well, two problems.

It turns out, the nice alphas aren’t her only mates. She’s also an exact match for their professional rivals—cocky hockey superstar, Xander, and his broody-but-menacing packmate, Jett.

She expects the challengers to back off once they see who they’re up against. Instead, Noelle’s not-so-nice pack proves they’re to do whatever it takes to win her over.

Even if it means getting snowed in with their sworn enemies.

Cover Reveal for Eternal Surrender by Vanessa Fewings

Title: Eternal Surrender
Series: Eternal Desires Book 3
Author: Vanessa Fewings
Genre/Tropes: Dark PNR; Vampire Romance; Gothic Fantasy; Forbidden Desire; Obsessive Anti-hero
Release Date: October 7, 2026



A must read for vampire fans.
Moments of joy and heartbreak, of love and denial, of trust and betrayal.
A completely new and fresh take like no other

A dark gothic vampire romance filled with fractured immortality, forbidden desire, enemies bound together, and deadly supernatural intrigue.

We have always hated each other.
We have killed each other.

And now… we are trapped together, breathing through the same skin, craving through the same veins, imprisoned in a single living body.

I am William. That’s what they call me now.
And I am not alone.

Jadeon’s fury coils inside me like a blade. Orpheus’s darkness pulses like a second heart. Two ancient enemies bound by a grotesque mistake of blood and resurrection, our minds bleeding into one another, our desires tangling in ways neither of us can control. Every thought is a battle. Every heartbeat, a war.

And London is dying.

Something is poisoning us, something ancient, merciless, and unseen. Vampires are falling, their immortality unraveling into ash and agony. No one is safe.
Especially not us.

She is the only light in this suffocating darkness.

Inspector Ingrid Jansen, brilliant, relentless, devastatingly human. She sees me… all of me… and still reaches closer. She stirs something dangerously fragile within this fractured soul, something that feels like hope… or ruin. Because to love her is to risk everything, not just my life, but what remains of my sanity.

Hunted by the ruthless Stone Masters and racing through a London that shifts from glittering elegance to depraved shadow, we chase ancient secrets that may undo what we’ve become… or damn us forever.

Who survives?

Eternal Surrender is a dark paranormal vampire romance perfect for readers who love obsessive immortal anti-heroes, gothic fantasy, forbidden desire, and emotionally charged vampire fiction in the vein of Interview with the Vampire, A Dowry of Blood, and Empire of the Vampire.
