In Open by Louisa Bacio, Martina keeps trying to pretend that everything is fine, but the ghosts in her new B&B are just as determined to get her attention. In A Friendly Ghostbusting by Charles Payseur, an old rival who once humiliated him is not what Cas needs as he sets out to explore an old psychiatric prison. In Darkling by Helena Maeve, Eugene tried to warn Caleb and his friends away from Ledwich University and soon enough they'll learn... they really should have listened.

Excerpt:

Excerpt from Everything a Big Bad Wolf Could Want by McKay

He rolled his head to look at Harlan, wanting to make sure he was all right, only to find Harlan lying on his side, looking at him. They gazed at each other in silence for a long moment, then Harlan reached out and stroked Whimsy's cheek.

"My wolf likes you," he said, his voice raspy with a strange undercurrent like a growl beneath the surface.

"That's good, isn't it?" Whimsy mustered a smile, trying to resist the urge to nuzzle against Harlan's fingers. That wasn't his right.

Suddenly, Harlan moved, and Whimsy found himself pinned beneath Harlan's large, heavy, naked body. "It likes you more'n it likes Barbara."

This close, Whimsy could see something feral in Harlan's eyes, as if the wolf hadn't loosened its grip completely yet, and he wanted to call it forth. He wanted to belong to it, and he was overwhelmed by a desire to show his throat and surrender that he'd never felt with anyone before.

"Maybe that should tell you something," he said boldly. If he were a noble, self-sacrificing man, he would have extricated himself and encouraged Harlan to think only of his girlfriend, but he wasn't that noble or self-sacrificing, and he couldn't bring himself to feel terribly guilty about it at the moment.

"I like women. But there's something about you, Whims..." Harlan bent his head and ran his nose along the length of Whimsy's throat as if scenting him, and Whimsy shivered as he tilted his head back.

Whimsy shifted beneath Harlan just enough to seat Harlan's lean hips in the cradle of his thighs, and Harlan settled there like they were made to fit together. Feeling bolder, Whimsy slid one hand along Harlan's arm to rest on his shoulder, testing to see what Harlan would allow.

"Liking women doesn't mean you can't like men too," he pointed out. "It's not an either-or thing for some people. Maybe you like both."

"Maybe I do. I've thought about other men before, including you. I don't know." Harlan released a long, slow sigh. "There's a lotta things I don't know these days."

"I know I like you a lot," Whimsy whispered, sliding his hand to the back of Harlan's neck and stroking it gently. "I think we could be good together."
