Finding love wasn't in my playbook - especially not with Sadie Benson.

Until a feisty sports reporter with big brown eyes, a seductive smile, and the most irresistible curves I’ve ever seen shows up in the locker room.

Rule follower. Straitlaced. Goody-goody. I’m as well-behaved as they get, but then the worst thing ever happened to me...I caught the interest of the bad boy. Wilder isn’t the same guy I idolized when we were kids. He made that clear the day he moved back to Ridgeview. He hunts me, stalks me, surrounds me from all sides. I’m his new favorite plaything. Again. Last year was bad enough, but as graduation looms his claws are in me once more and he refuses to let go. And worst of all? I think I like it.

Hooking up with an annoyingly handsome stranger on vacation isn't the best idea, but I could use a little bit of careless fun before my fresh start. We said no last names, no strings. With law school on the line, it's all I can offer. I just don't expect everything to feel so easy—or so right. Too bad I'll never see him again. Little did I know that hockey star Logan Russo is also attending Westfall U. Now I can't escape him… or his sexy silver eyes. He may not be a player… but he's still off-limits.

Annika Knowles knows better than to get involved with powerful men. She nearly became collateral damage in a war once before, but she ran, making a new life for herself in the seedy underbelly of Las Vegas. The High Roller Club offers someone with her skill set the chance to make her own way, and she's mostly managed to keep her head down. Well, if you don't count how she keeps falling into bed with one of the club's security specialists. Or how she accidentally caught the eye of one of the most dangerous men in Vegas.

I knew better than to go to that party. I would have been much happier curled up at home eating Halloween candy by myself, but I had Mom’s voice in my head telling me to make an effort now that I was in college, to put myself out there and socialize. If I’d stayed home, I wouldn’t have met him.

He stole my first kiss in the dark. The shadows welcoming him like a lover's touch. Every night since, the dark brings him back to me. He's my demon, my nightmare, and my dream all rolled up into one. He tells me I'm his but during the day I cannot find him. Until my demon has no choice but to come for me, to save me, to rescue me from the tower I am locked away in. But does my black-eyed demon just wish to free me of those chains to fit his own? Or am I strong enough to break their lock and find the man underneath?

This is Slappy's world - you only scream in it!

Sure, I’ll admit it. Women have come and gone from my life since I was in high school. They’re nothing more than a warm body to sink into at the end of a long day. Even though I’m upfront about not being interested in a relationship, there are always a few persistent females who think they’ll be the one to change my mind.

They call them the Court, an elite boys club who rule Windsor Preparatory Academy like gods among men. And, of course, they're led by Hercules himself. Royal Prinze—yes, that's actually his name—walks around both the school and the town like he owns them. His affiliation to the prestigious Court only gives him more clout. These boys do anything they want. They take anything they want, and they f--k anything they want...in that order. Then there's me.

It's been over two years, and I still have no clue why Rhys stopped talking to me. Suddenly, he pretended I didn't exist. He was cold, leaving the room every time I'd enter. Truths became nothing but lies I'd been told. My life was a web of secrets spun by everyone I trusted, including him. Until the night Rhys came clean. He wasn't who I was made to believe. And neither was I.

I've had my heart crushed more times than I can count. Swearing off men was the best thing I ever did. The second best—taking a job waitressing at The Firken bar off campus. My grumpy boss is nice to everyone… except me. Which shouldn't bother me, but it does. Darren is handsome, mysterious—and even more unavailable than I am. I've gotten over my ghosts, but he's still chasing his. I thought after years of working in close proximity maybe, just maybe, we would finally cross that line. But almost kisses don't count, not even off the clock.

Some people say you should forget the past, focus on the present, and dream for the future. That’s what I intend to do, because I want nothing more than to move on and start a new family—and a new life in Greythorn—with Silas, Damon, and Jude. But the past doesn’t want to die, and despite our reign, there’s one person who wants nothing more than to see our Kingdom fall.

Returning from Texas after summer break, which I spent working and training, I expected a temperature change. Hell, I welcomed the chill, but I didn't expect to be completely frozen out by the only chick at Lincoln University who I thought about almost as much as I do hockey. When I saw Riley Park for the first time, the universe shifted. Which sounds completely lame, but I take issues with liars; therefore, I refuse to be one. I, Theo Rivera, was enchanted by her. Was? Yeah. Because now… now I'm just pissed.

Bad boys... am I right? Can’t live with them... can’t live without them. At least that’s what I thought before my life turned sideways the night Rafe Crimson walked into it. Now here I am, stuck in a holding cell with a broken werewolf and a war brewing. Just peachy, right? You’d think I’d learn my lesson.. but at least I’m the monster now.
