Born into the ruthless underworld, I've been cast aside. I'm locked in a cage of lies and betrayal, now framed for a crime I didn't commit. But then he came for me. Ollie Romanov, the savage enforcer, believes I'm a traitor. He's ruthless, merciless, and prepared to make me pay for my sins. To him, I'm nothing more than a pawn to punish. A traitor to be broken. Yet beneath the cold, brutal exterior, I see something more—a darkness that calls to my own. I shouldn't crave the twisted connection we share. I swear the man has no conscience… Except when it comes to me.

My life is black and white. Every choice is designed to protect my family and crush our enemies. Trust is a luxury I can't afford. Then she comes—Isabella Morales, disguised as a boy, burning with defiance and danger. Forbidden fruit, the daughter of a rival cartel. She holds secrets that could unravel everything I've fought for. Letting her live could be my demise. But now she's mine.

I've been taught since birth to hate the Melnikovs. They're the monsters who are responsible for my father's death, or at least that's what my mom says, but Luka Melnikov isn't the monster I'm expecting. He's a man who's dedicated his life to his family's Bratva, a man who's never allowed women to get close to him, but he takes one look at me and decides I'm his. He wants me to be his first, his last, his everything. And he'll end anyone who tries to stand between us.

The average song is three and a half minutes long; those three and a half minutes could lead to a slow blink, a glimpse of the past, or catapult the soul into heart-shattering nostalgia. At the height of my career, I had the life I wanted, the life I’d always envisioned. I’d found my tempo, my rhythm. Then I received a phone call that left me off key. You see, my favorite songs had a way of playing simultaneously. I was in love with one man’s beats and another’s lyrics. But when it came to the soundtrack of a life, how could anyone choose a favorite song?

I’m supposed to erase her memory, not claim her. My son’s date knows too much. The most important rule of the pack has been broken: She's seen him shift. The alpha orders me to make her forget, but one hint of her scent and I know the truth—this human is MINE. Riley’s half my age. She has her whole life in front of her. If I claim her, I lock her into a fate she never even imagined. Besides, she thinks I’m a player–only out for one thing. I should stay away. Should let her go. But Riley is too sweet, too beautiful, and far too mine.

Struggling artist Oliver London will do whatever it takes to keep his dream alive—whether it’s posing as a figure model, surviving on the bare essentials, and sharing his dingy apartment with a spirited Jack Russell Terrier. With no time or means for a relationship, Oliver has resigned himself to a solitary life. Besides, his heart has never truly moved on from the one who got away. Stori Ryder’s turbulent past has fueled her relentless drive to succeed. Now, as the owner of Whisky River, Manhattan’s hottest speakeasy, she’s laser-focused on her goals.

She may not be what he and his children need, but she’s lovely and a sweet temptation he can’t resist.

I'm a trained assassin. Enlisted by the Fae Corps and instructed to kill, there is no place in my life for a fated mate. Then Gia crashes into my life. Flashing eyes, luscious lips that beg to be kissed. One whiff of her sugary scent, and I know she is mine. But she's human, and no way can she withstand the mating practices of the Fae.

I had two things in life that mattered–my mother and my music. Mama was taken from me too soon, and now music is all I have left. It’s the thing that’s pushed me right out of backwoods Georgia into Los Angeles, where the line between fantasy and reality shimmers and blurs.

He is my infuriating business partner, my archenemy, and a high-ranking officer of the mafia. And now he’s my fake fiancé. I’m the daughter of a mafia enforcer. The father I’ve never met is forcing me to marry a vile stranger… And if I want to prevent it, I have to pretend to be engaged to my new business partner.

Rule number one of Wall Street: don’t fall in love with your billionaire boss. I hate my boss. The Wall Street tycoon is a jerk. A world-class alpha-hole. Devastatingly handsome but terribly flawed. He goes through assistants like I go through vanilla lattes, and I need this job. But I went to school with bullies like him, so I’m not afraid. I hate my attraction to him. How sparks fly when we spar. The way he barks orders and dresses me down. I hate how I fantasize about him during and after work hours.

He has three rules for me: I’ll bow. I’ll break. I’ll pay for what I’ve done. Problem is, I don’t remember what I’ve done, but I have a clue. There was a fire. A dead girl. And I was there.

My bear is wild. Totally uncivilized. Savage. I’m not the nice bear. That’s my twin, Teddy. I keep my bear caged. Until I meet Paloma and my bear goes wild. She’s beautiful and talented, but something’s rotten in this mansion in the Hamptons. Her foster father keeps her locked in a tower, surrounded by guards. There are whispers of an auction–a virgin auction. My bear’s about to break free and go on a rampage. But I can’t let him out.

I vowed over my dead wife’s body that I would never fall in love again. But now, to repay a debt, I’m being forced to marry Rosa Tran. Sweet and innocent. Tempting enough to drive me mad.
