Keri is a talented cellist for a symphony orchestra with dreams of performing music for movies and television. When not one but two men in the ensemble begin stalking her, she turns the tables and accidentally becomes a stalker herself.

Being the second son of a mafia boss has its perks. The money and power without the pressure of running the damn thing one day. Trev Hughes was everyone’s favorite playboy. He possessed the Hughes sex appeal without the intimidating presence. The last time a gorgeous blonde walked into his life he never stood a chance. She had belonged to his older brother from the very beginning. However, when he uses one of his best pickup lines on a girl he notices across the room at a gala, tricks her into a kiss, and loses her before midnight he’s determined to find his Cinderella.

He’s a game she never intended to play. And she’s the game changer he never knew he needed.

She ran from the mafia prince. But he won’t stop until she’s his wife. I’m Luca De Vos. Heir to one of the most powerful mafia empires in the Netherlands. Notorious mobster with a wicked taste for girls. But there’s only one woman I truly wanted. Jill Baas, mafia princess and the only woman who doesn’t want me. She did the unforgivable and then ran away. Now I’ll marry her sister. Until Jill storms right back into my arms on our wedding day… Begging me to marry her instead. It’s a dream come true for a depraved s*nner like me. Jill Baas—the runaway bride—mine to mark, own, taint.

Jack appeared at my door last night after six months of no communication wearing a Mets jersey and holding a dozen red roses. He told me he was sorry, that he loved me, and that he would earn my trust again. It took everything in me to not fall apart at the mere sight of him. I wanted to take him back into my life, but I needed to know that this time it would be forever.

It’s one hell of a sledgehammer to the chest when your baseball career comes to an end. It’s like you finally realize that baseball never loved you back. All the sleepless nights, the hours spent at the gym trying to stay fit, the conditioning, the training, the mental preparation, the holidays missed, the birthdays passed, the memories you didn’t get to make with your family … all for what? It’s not like baseball lost any sleep over you. She didn’t stay awake for nights on end, trying to figure out how to make you a better player. She didn’t care. Baseball’s a business.

Wrecked. It’s how Jasmine Delaney found me. The truth was, I’d been heading down a one-way street to destruction for a long time. I raced — illegally. I drank — excessively. I slept with women — indiscriminately. There was no escape in sight. That is, until I met her. She made me feel whole again, nurturing my heart right along with my soul. But right when I had a reason to be a better man… I did what I always warned her about. I wrecked it. She should have stayed away. Orchids. It's how Campbell Baxter crawled into my heart. The truth was, I’d been walking down a lonely path for far too long.

LA wasn’t home. Just home for now. Transplanted here to model, I learned Hollywood isn’t where dreams survive the harsh reality of millions all sharing that same dream. Executive assistant is who I am now.

As I sped away from my shattered dreams, the rain pelted down, my wedding dress crumpled in the backseat. Betrayal stung my eyes more than tears as I envisioned a fresh start in Kansas. Suddenly, my car hydroplaned, sending me spinning into a ditch. Stranded and soaked, I stumbled through the storm until a warm light beckoned.

All Vera wants is to survive her wedding day and fade into the rhythms of a normal life. No easy task for a quarter-mage like her. But her worst fears come to pass when her faulty magic once again lets her down—only this time, she's branded a criminal.

My name is Bobby Kincaid, and I met the woman of my dreams last night in a dark club. We drank. We danced. We shared a part of our souls, and a belly-firing kiss that has left me hard and desperate for more. I begged for her number, but all I got was the view of her slender back, little black dress, and flowing blonde hair as she slid into a car with another dude. Just like that, she drove out of my life, determined to never see me again. But I wouldn't be me if not for my tenacity and a streak of stubborn most others call a flaw.

My friends all tell me that I need to get under one man to get over another. Which seems ridiculous considering I've never technically been under any man. Then I meet Mr. Tall, Dark and Handsome. He's a man in uniform with possession in his eyes. Our attraction is instant and flammable and everything is perfect. Until I find out just how forbidden he is. Baker Johnson is my mom's new husband's son, and that means—no matter how much I want him, or how much I crave his touch—nothing can come of us. He's off-limits.

I knew the world was bigger than the small town I grew up in, but discovering just how large it really is might send me into a spiral. Demons exist, and not only that, they have a carnival they run on Earth, full of the most vile people crafting deals to further their bad deeds. And yet, it’s in this tent of sin that I find my savior. With a deal sealed by a kiss, I’m sworn protection by the most fearsome creature I have ever laid eyes on. The only problem is, I’m not sure he can protect me from his world too.

Saoirse Murphy. Fierce, stubborn, strong. She was the temptation I couldn’t give in to. I would’ve gone through hell for her. Even if it meant removing myself from her life to save her the heartache that comes from being with a Made Man. But when she needed me, I couldn't resist her call. I would always be there for her. Even if it meant seeing her in the hands of another man. At least that’s what I told myself. Saoirse was walking temptation, and I didn’t believe I could resist.

Mina ascends the golden throne and stands atop a crumbling realm. With her enemies breathing down her neck and Alrick's life in danger, she is forced to venture on a dangerous path once more. One that means inviting "the Moniter” into her life....

Former model and current recluse Jules Lowe would prefer to spend the rest of her life locked inside her apartment doing nothing more than fixating on her empty fish tank and chatting away on a local aquarium forum. But when her online crush sends her an inadvertently suspicious picture, Jules' curiosity gets the best of her. Who or what is Mack Vasser?

Leigh Raelyn should be burned at the stake. Not only did she cause the deaths of her family — she’s also a Lunar witch, bonded with the outlawed element, aether. But hiding an illicit gift is almost impossible when you’re next in line for the throne, and her supply of magical suppressants is dwindling. So, when she discovers a way to surrender her title, Leigh seizes her chance. Wilder Dunn will do whatever it takes to ascend the ranks of the Borealis Blades — so long as it gives him the power to bring his sister’s killers to their knees.

Dr. Steven Ericson never thought a parking ticket would change his life, but that's exactly what happened the day he goes downtown to pay his forgotten ticket for an expired meter. As the head of Boston General's ER, he doesn't have time for relationships, or at least he's never met a woman who made him want to make time. That all changes when he meets Whitney Hayes. The dynamo attorney in high heels entices him to imagine carving out time for more than his usual one-night stand. Imagine his dismay to find out that she, too, doesn't do relationships—they're not in her five-year plan.

Pushing paper in some forgotten back office is the perfect way to go unnoticed here. This multibillion-dollar corporation tore my family apart, and once I get a job inside it, I have everything I need to burn it to the ground.
