I should hate Anton for what he did to Maxim, but the more time I spend with him, the more I realize he’s not the monster my father makes him out to be. Before long, I’ve fallen in love with him. He has no idea who I really am or who my father is. Our whole relationship is based on lies. I need to tell Anton the truth. And I’m about to…when I discover I’m pregnant.

I finally made it to the pros, like my father before me, and I have to prove I belong here. But lately, I’ve been distracted. There’s this woman. I met her after a game in Vegas, and we got a little drunk—and married. My new wife is stunning, a cellist whose music breaks down my defenses. Amazingly, she’s moved to Pittsburgh to be with me and she even fits in with my rowdy family. Everything should be perfect.

She’s organized. He’s impulsive. She plans her days down to the minute. He can barely remember what day it is. On paper, they don’t add up. But sometimes love shows up exactly when—and how—you least expect it.

It’s not love. It’s something far more dangerous —It’s a ruinous obsession. Ayla Kennedy has always known she’s different. Beneath her poised exterior, there is a hunger that’s untamed and unfulfilled. That is, until she meets him. The Beast. He’s no ordinary man. Feared for his brutal touch and unapologetic dominance, The Beast has left a trail of broken hearts and trembling bodies in his wake. No woman has ever been able to match his intensity... until Ayla. She doesn’t flinch., She doesn’t run. She wants more. This isn’t a fairytale.

You’d think an award-winning actress would have seen and experienced it all—and I have. But eventually, the lifestyle of the rich and the famous begins to take its toll. Fame becomes exhausting, and pretending becomes a requirement. Hollywood presents nothing more than an illusion of happiness, and now I find myself searching for an escape.

We all have secrets we would die to protect and truths we would kill to uncover. My search for answers leads me to an abandoned church and the dwelling of three psychotic, masked men. These three Beasts are the stuff of nightmares, leaving no witnesses to the horror they sow. They are ruthless and deranged, but they are the ones who hold the answers to my past and the key to unlock my future.

I was a pushover when I lived in New York. Now I'm a force to be reckoned with. Enter Colby Bryce, a man who I didn't expect to sweep me off my feet and show me just how much the world had to offer to those who knew how to take what they wanted.

All I wanted was a new life, a fresh start in Faders Bay. But fate hadn’t written my name in the stars, it was written in cold, murderous blood. Zade. Sawyer. Dalton. Cross. They wanted something from me—they wanted my heart. Literally carved right out of my chest. They vowed to protect me, vowed to keep me safe from the very monsters they claimed to be. But Zade was the devil, a knight in shining murder, while the others sat back to watch the show, wicked grins stretched across their traitorous faces. I never should have trusted them.

The moment I set my eyes on her I wanted her. I had to play the long game for her to be in the perfect position for the taking. I’ve lied and manipulated to create the textbook moment for me to make my move. So, when I walk into her classroom as her new student, I have everything in place. I’m coming for you, Little Red. And nothing you say will stop me.

He shouldn’t look at me like this… but with him, resisting was never an option. Coming home wasn’t part of the plan. But one scandal, one ruined career, and here I am—back at the university, starting over. And then I see him. Connor Driscoll. My ex-best friend, the one I left behind without a word… and now my boss. To him, I’m a reckless memory, someone he shouldn’t trust. To me, he’s temptation and danger wrapped into one—all lean muscles and brooding stares that leave me breathless. He thinks I’ll stay out of his way, that I won’t cross the line again. But that was before…

My father is a genius. A scientist determined to unlock human potential. Only his experiments? He conducted them on me. I managed to escape his cruel, painful control, and for years I hid. Until one day, news comes of his death. Along with the fact his experiments are still being carried out. This time I cannot run, I cannot hide. I must stop them once and for all. He thought he was invincible…. but me? I'm unstoppable.

Forgive me. Those were the first words Santos Augustine spoke to me before we sealed an unbreakable oath. A contract signed in blood binding me to him as payment for my father’s sins. Wearing the mask of legitimacy, this powerful crime family has returned to Avarice to punish those who have wronged them and take what they’ve always been denied, a place among the elite. Forced to marry my enemy, I’m thrust into his world of secrets and betrayals. My husband is a dangerous man. And he has dangerous enemies. But it’s when I’m attacked that his fury is unleashed.

I know a bad idea when I see one, and the unfairly handsome stranger I meet on the airport shuttle is a really bad idea. Especially when the silver fox turns out not to be a stranger at all, and steering clear isn't an option. This isn't a vacation. I'm in Bora Bora for my sister's wedding, to connect with my aggressively successful family members and focus on what matters most: getting into medical school. Judah Hale, with his broad shoulders and growly voice, is a distraction I can't afford. 

From the moment I first laid eyes on Madelena De Léon, I felt a primal urge to protect her. Keep her safe. Her father had failed her. I would not.

In Locked Inside, Abigayle Roland—a psychologist renowned for her composure—is thrust into a nightmare when her latest patient, Deon Knight, arrives at the mental hospital. A man of unnerving charm and malevolence, Deon is accused of crimes too heinous to comprehend. But as their sessions progress, Abigayle finds herself ensnared in his magnetic darkness, her professional detachment crumbling under his relentless provocations.

I’m not supposed to fall in love with my husband. It’s not part of my plan. Forgive me. Those were the first words Santos Augustine spoke to me before we sealed an unbreakable oath. A contract signed in blood binding me to him as payment for my father’s sins.

One night. Two lines. Three lives changed forever. I swore off hockey players after my ex-husband's betrayal. So, when I hooked up with a cocky stranger at a party, I had a few expectations: No strings. No repeats. Because the guy I chose was Tucker Stag—Pittsburgh Fury enforcer and my ex's teammate. Oh, and those condoms he endorses? They don't work. Now I'm facing co-parenting with a man whose entire family smothers us, and I feel my hard-won independence slipping further away with every casserole and helpful suggestion. Tucker fights hard on the ice and plays harder off it.

One look. One moment. One girl. She was all it took for me to lose my focus. My whole life changed in the blink of an eye.
