Our new Entangled Edge imprint has launched!
Find out how we’re giving your reading list an Edge
And make sure to follow us on Facebook and Twitter for our launch giveaway later this week.
I read my first romance novel when I was about ten years old. I sneakily borrowed it from the library, shocked that my mother hadn’t yanked it away from me and put it back on its shelf. It was the start of an era. I find myself now at the beginning again, but this time I’m at the start of an exciting—and potentially life-changing—adventure. Not only for me but for readers all around the world.
This week marks the birth of a new single-title imprint here at Entangled, a digital-first imprint that gives an edge in the marketplace to our compelling and engaging novels. With a variety of subgenres and levels of sexiness filling our virtual shelves, we have a romance for every reader.
I am beyond thrilled to be a part of this new endeavor. Not only do we have a great 2013 list to bring you all, but we’re dedicated to being bold in our publications, of reaching niche markets and even sub-subgenres that are still in their infancy. That’s what I love about Edge—we are more than just “what’s hot.” We’re about heart, about taking chances on the books we love, and about sharing entertaining and meaningful stories by passionate authors to their just-as-passionate readers.
Now, the intricacies of launching such an imprint allow for no easy feat, but thanks to the hard work and talented eyes of our wonderful team, I am delighted to introduce you to Entangled Edge!

WORST. JOB. EVER.
Kate O’Hara can’t wait until this temp assignment is over. The woman who hired her is a psychotic pageant queen, her coworkers are convicts-turned-clerks, and it’s so boringly corporate it makes her skin crawl. Even her sexy-as-sin boss, famed billionaire Thomas Kestrel, isn’t enticement enough to keep her there. Once she makes enough to pay off her bills, she’s out. Or so she thinks…
WHAT THE HELL?
Next thing she knows, she’s accidentally signed over her soul. Literally. And she’s discovered Thomas’s real mission: to kill thirteen bad guys in one year, in order to get his—now his and Kate’s—souls back.
IT’S NOT JUST A JOB. IT’S A MISADVENTURE.
From learning to boost the morale of some paper-pushing demons to navigating her way through blood-red tape, Kate has to work closely with her super-hot supervisor and get her flaky act together, before somebody clocks her out—p permanently!

All Sophie wants for her thirty-third year is a calendar without a February—and without a Valentine’s Day. The unlucky month haunts her with regrets, loss, and missteps she can never take back. But this year, she’s determined to make a change— and she’s going to start with telling her best friend, Sam, how she feels about him.
But February isn’t making it easy for her. Sam’s got a date with his dream girl, and Sophie finds herself in the hospital. Then there’s her father, who has a surprise that’s about to turn her world upside-down, and her little brother, who doesn’t seem to have any room for her in his life. While everyone else seems to be living life, Sophie is stuck in neutral.
Now, Sophie must come to terms with everything that’s holding her back in order to fight for what she wants before she loses the chance to turn her luck around.

When a magical presence is detected around a recent string of feline slayings, Libby, an enchantress, is determined to discover who is behind the odd deaths. Being a witch gifted by the Goddess to conjure spells won’t protect her from the sexy warlock the Coven sends to assist her. Kale weaves a spell more powerful than any she’s ever seen.
While having the muscle around proves to be useful in her investigation, fighting her growing attraction for Kale is worse than a hex, especially considering the secrets she knows he’s keeping. But when her spells turn up clues that point to something far more sinister than slaughtered cats, the elusive warlock becomes the least of her worries.
Libby finds herself in the midst of an uprising. She trusts no one and isn’t safe—not from the warlocks stirring up trouble. Not from the worrisome rebellion she can’t escape. And certainly not from Kale, who is weaving a very dangerous spell over her heart.
