Gerda Jones is no average bridge troll. Sure, she can create riddles like the best of them, but she has skills up her sleeve that no one would expect . . . and a backstory that no one would believe. She uses her fortune-telling talents to change the fate of everyone around her, but avoids getting too close to anyone herself. All of that changes when Gerda catches the eye of Duke Julian von Slyke at his sister's wedding. The tall, dark, and handsome half-elf is making her let down her guard—and inviting a royal heap of trouble into her life.

As such, she's unceremoniously shooed from her kingdom to go eliminate the all-powerful Dark Lord next door. Keith Monfort has never enjoyed ruling with an iron fist.

So when Henrietta shows up at his door, he's only too happy to invite her in for tea to talk it out instead.

I bought a club in Boston to start over, to drown out the screams of my past with thumping bass and dim-lit pleasures. It was supposed to be simple—remodel the mess, retrain the staff, and open the doors. Then she took the stage. Now, we're locked in a battle of wills, and I can't decide if I want to pin her against the nearest wall or make her beg for mercy. Either way, she's under my skin. Every time she flashes that defiant smile, I feel the world tilt on its axis, and I'm not sure if I'm falling for her—or falling apart. The more I push, the more she pulls.

No pity. Trust no one. Keep it moving. My name is Sheena May, and those are my rules. With secrets worth killing for, I'll do whatever it takes to avoid being caged again.

They promise me things I've never dared to want, but my secrets remain my own.

Gia Rossi—off-limits, untamable, my enemy's precious little sister. When our rival families form an uneasy alliance, I become her bodyguard. Nothing new—I've been protecting her for years. In secret.

My pretty little Storm didn't want a knight in shining armor to save her from captivity. Which was good, because my reputation wasn't built on being prince-like to damsels in distress. No, it was built on being a psychotic menace who often played surgeon with my targets before I eliminated them. That was precisely what I did to the men who harmed Olivia Everett before I saved her from the Velvet Cage. I stalked them. I hunted them. And then I delivered their missing pieces to her on a silver platter. Piece by piece, I healed her brokenness with those souvenirs. But I had to do it quickly.

My ex came back from the dead and stole me away from my happily ever after. Somehow, that's not even the worst of my problems. I've also been separated from my son. My father is trying to kill me. And my husband thinks I'm pregnant—but the truth is that I lost the baby... and I don't know how to tell him. Basically, my whole world's on fire. So I have a choice to make: I can take my son and run from this life, or I can beg Mikhail to leave it behind with us.

Elio Rossi is a dream on paper. He's rich, handsome, and head of his family's multi-billion-dollar business. He's also a ruthless Mafia Don and my older brother's best friend. But even that isn't a huge issue to me. No, Elio is my nightmare because he used to be my dream man. We've been betrothed since childhood. But the night of our engagement years ago, our parents died in a tragic accident. One that I'm sure Elio's family planned.

"You're two months pregnant." My doctor's words shock me to my core… But he has no idea it's his baby. One trip to the ER and my life is ruined. Those words said by my doctor will destroy me.

Just my luck… My doctor in the hospital just happens to be the chief surgeon, Owen Thorpe—my ex's super hot, super off-limits father. The one person I shouldn't have gone near.
