English Prep has always been known for housing the most uppity, privileged rich kids in all of Pike Valley. That is what has been driven into my brain since attending the opposing prep academy in the area since middle school. So when I am hastily pulled out of Wellington Prep and thrown into English Prep my junior year, it feels like I am being thrown to the wolves. My plan is to blend in and to remain invisible, so I fly under the radar, staying away from the "in" crowd. Then I lock eyes with Ollie Powell.

Beware the wrath of a broken blind girl. Victor. Torsten. Cassius – the jock, the artist, the stepbrother. They made me theirs – body, heart, and soul. They got inside my head. They broke down my defenses and made me trust them … maybe even love them. They betrayed me. They think they’re untouchable, but they forget that I’m one of them. I’m the poison flower in their garden, beautiful and deadly, hiding in plain sight. I know all their secrets, Their weaknesses, Their darkest desires, And I’m going to make them pay.

There comes a point in your life where you have to say enough is enough. I wasted my college years on a guy who played with my head, played with my heart. I was blinded by the fairy tale, the one that didn't exist. The day I gave up on the idea of happily ever after, my focus became me. Moving forward and establishing my career. Until one day.... I didn't expect him. My new boss, a six foot two, inked rock god. I believed I was working for the record label - I was wrong.

In the game of love, can she learn to trust again? After a disastrous relationship, my heart is closed to men—especially smoldering hot hockey players. Only problem? James Adler, star player of the New York Raptors, hasn't received the memo. He flirts with me like it's a full-time job, but I'm...

The first time I saw Major Cade Jameson, his pants were around his ankles...Every line of hard-earned muscle beckoned me to "squeeze here." But I'm getting ahead myself. To tell this story right, I'll have to start with the present, not the past. I owe Cade a debt. A life for a life. My name is Brecklyn Brannon, and I'm not who I claim to be.

When my college besties both ditch me for other living arrangements, I have no other choice but to accept an offer to share a room with Killian "Killer" Palmer. Sharing an attic space with the junior tight end for the Clearview Falls University football team is far from the ideal situation. We are opposites in every way possible. I'm a city girl and computer programmer with a penchant for cleaning. He's an outgoing farm boy who couldn't keep his room clean if his life depended on it.

She's dated her fair share of New York City firemen, but after having been burned one too many times, she swore she'd never date another one. Enter Jesse Hogan—tempting her to bend her rules for one night. He was just a volunteer fireman, that had to be a loophole, right? Wrong. He was also a lieutenant in the FDNY. A fireman twice over. So she told herself to forget about that feeling in her chest (and that mind-blowing orgasm) and move on before he bulldozed her heart. Easy, right? Wrong.

Mason Powell. Best friend. Boyfriend. Husband. Father. He's the young man you know but have never met. He's the man who chose love over friendship. He's the man who would do anything for his family and friends. He's the man who stepped up when someone wasn't there. He's the man who has a story to tell.

It should have been simple. Easy come, easy go, and in between, atonement. She was not who I would have chosen. Gwen was delicate and lovely: a former model with a ruined life, living loudly in the quiet of the Smoky Mountains, healing injured bears. When she laid her hands on me, she healed me too. That's how it began. That's where it went wrong. I knew she could never be mine. But I sinned. I sinned.

No more distractions...until she indulges in an impulsive, mind-melting New Year's kiss with Gladiators offensive lineman Everest. 

When my ex-boyfriend’s brother waltzed into the nightclub where I was bartending, looking like he'd just stepped out of the pages of GQ magazine: Wall Street Edition, it felt like fate. Later, when he breaks into my apartment in the middle of the night, demanding to know how I got the bruises around my neck and promising to protect me, it feels a little too much the way things used to. I remind myself that I escaped that life and I'm not the person he once knew, but deep down, I want his help.

When a stop at a shady motel puts Brandon Parker face-to-face with his best friend, Mary, for the first time in over a decade, he almost didn't believe it. He'd never stopped searching for her, but even a career in law enforcement couldn't help him find a woman who wanted to stay invisible. When Mary Benson ran away at 18, she did it with good reason. A man was in the hospital because of her, and the people she loved were in danger. She had to leave to keep them safe.

After reuniting with Lily, I had no doubt in my mind that she was the one for me. But like all marriages, everyone gets tested. Add a dozen more problems coming from all directions, and it could get extremely tricky.

When the aliens who kidnapped me dropped my bubble into the ocean of an alien moon, I really thought I was a goner. I thanked my lucky stars when Kitaico, a bizarrely hot tentacled alien rescued me from what would have surely been a watery grave. There's one big problem though, I accidentally took his mating sting. So, through no fault of his own, we both have to deal with my forced heats thanks to his venom. Can I fight my chemical induced attraction enough to work out if I want to spend forever with Kitaico?

I'm the glue holding EnergiFusion together, and I've got the spreadsheets to prove it. So when Rhys Smalls hands the CEO reins to Theo Reed—my insufferable ex-fling with a smile that should be illegal—I brace for chaos. He's late, distracted, and thinks I'll clean up his mess. But I'm not the same woman he walked away from. Now, I'm his right hand… and the one person who refuses to let him coast. Working with Theo is like juggling grenades—sexy, smug grenades with killer abs. But the more he pushes, the harder I push back.

Justin is a whirlwind of brilliance and ambition that sweeps everyone along with him—including me. The first kiss was an accident. One taste before he moved to California, and I needed to figure out my life. We were supposed to keep it casual. But then he invited me to join him. He's the only one who believes in me. He does everything full-throttle, including pursuing me. I can't say no. I wasn't supposed to fall in love. But I can't stop myself. I can't lose myself in the whirlwind of Justin Capriotti.
