Sky Cold knows exactly what she wants, and it's Luke Finnegan, the college campus star quarterback. The only problem is she's not even a blip on his radar. In order to get noticed by her crush, she's willing to exchange the extra bedroom in her apartment to Luke's tattooed, older brother to find a way into his social circle. Baker Finnegan is determined to get out of his father's shadow and do things his way. When he falls on hard times, and the sexy, slightly nerdy co-ed Sky offers him a place to live in exchange for a fake friendship, he can't pass up the opportunity.

I was the devil. The worst kind of man for her. I knew the truth would make her hate me. But, I still wanted her to be mine. My goddess. Damn, I'd never wanted a woman the way I wanted her. One simple kiss could scorch my mind clean of everything I knew. That was what she did to me. She took me out of the real world, where I was a mobster and she was a cop. I was the imposter who lied to her....

Luc: When you come from a crime family, you have a name to live up to. My enemies know I'm a bastard who shows no mercy - exactly the cold-hearted don my father would want me to be. Except we're not the ones in charge. Yet...The Boss wants me to take over his billion-dollar business, and the only way that's happening is if I can win the heart of his cop daughter. I planned to treat her just like all the other women who meant nothing to me, until I met her and everything changed. Falling in love wasn't part of the plan.

Kato Amadi...born of darkest sorcery, unstoppable on the battlefield, his magic is as deadly as his blade. He's been trapped in darkness for millennia. Grace Van Allen is a scholar of ancient languages who toils in the dim recesses of a museum basement with only a beautiful stone warrior to keep her company. But when Grace calls upon her silent warrior to help her translate an obscure new language, she breaks the ancient curse holding him prisoner...and frees three deadly demons to rampage through her city. Tracking demons is what Kato was born to do, but he'll need Grace's help.

Caught between duty and desire, which will I choose? I promised her father I'd keep her safe, and she is safe, safe from everyone except me.

I don't do relationships. I've been abandoned all my life, and I don't trust a soul except my own damn self. But there's something different about Jack Chance. From his lithe, gymnast's body to his soulful hazel eyes, he's everything I never knew I wanted. When he's wrapped up in my arms, begging for more, everything seems right about the world. I'm not boyfriend material - everyone in Abingdon knows that. I've got a moonshine-making hillbilly family, a heart hardened by war, and I walk into burning buildings for a living. Oh, and I'm still in love with my best friend.

I left for Cali the night of my graduation with nothing but a pink boa, a pair of strappy gold heels, and my silver eye shadow from Sally Beauty Supply. Now at 26, I've got more Grammys than Madonna and a growing empire. Fame was everything I expected and nothing that I ever wanted. At the end of the day, I'm on my own, with an overbearing manager and security team as my only friends. I made this life, and now I live in it alone. That's when Fox Lee appears - out of nowhere - tall and gorgeous with salt-and-pepper hair and a wicked smile.

My mother acquired three privileged stepsons when she became engaged. The last thing I expected was to fall for one of them, least of all Thayer Ames. Beautiful, brooding, and untouchable. I knew it was a bad idea. He warned me himself. But he was a thunderstorm, and I never could resist the rain. It was perfect...until it wasn't. One night was all it took for our world to crumble, leaving only secrets and lies between us. Now, I have to face him again, but the boy I used to know has become the man who loves to hate me.

I couldn't walk away. It's not who I am. The moment I saw Rayne broken and bloodied, I knew I wasn't leaving without her. As the president of the Houston Defiance MC, my job is to protect. And there's no taming the rage building inside my body, screaming at me to shield her from the husband who's beating her day in and day out.

My past was destructive. It haunts my dreams. The moment I embraced my addiction, I knew my life would change dramatically. As the VP of the Houston Defiance MC, my job is to stand tall. Contain the demons clawing from the inside, begging to escape from within. But when I embrace my bloodlust, nothing can tame my wrath. Zero took me in as part of his family-a bond unbreakable. I should care about the no-touch rules. And the fact they are in place on his sister.

When we enter new territory, two things are clear: The Higher's evil runs deep, and no one is safe. As their secrets are revealed to the lands, the stakes are higher than ever before, and the pressure is on to get Runa out to stabilize my magic before it's too late. With the help of Darius, we may just make it, but he has his own trauma that he carries.

The day after I slept with Kai and Maddox, I married another man. I was young. Greedy. Selfish. Before I sold my body and my soul, I wanted one night for myself. So I lied. I pretended to be someone I wasn’t. Took what I wanted, no matter the cost. Ten years later, I’ve created a new life for myself. I’ve outrun my past. Faced my fears. Vanquished my demons. Then they reappear. Kai and Maddox. They're angry. They want to know why.

I might be the best-selling solo artist in the world, but my personal life is a disaster. For every number one album, there's a sea of my worsts, all documented in photos. Bad break-ups. Destroyed hotel rooms. Fights. Drugs. And just as many rumors. Every headline reaffirms the walls I've built around myself. Fame destroys everything it touches, and I can't let anyone close. The only exception is my best friend—Lowe Wilder

In hindsight, I should not have had that fifth mimosa at Breakfast with Santa. Or the sixth, seventh, and eighth. Even if the mic-drop moment that resulted was worth the looks on my former friends’ faces. For the sake of my children and my pride, I pack up and head for my childhood home and the small town where I grew up. Cloverleigh Farms would be the perfect place for a fresh start. Falling for Henry DeSantis wasn’t part of the plan.
