My mom fell in love with a monster. I know he’s dangerous. And I know my mom never wanted him in my life. I don’t want him in mine, either. But I’m being forced to live with him. I’m stuck in his haunting apartment in a world where I don’t belong. A world full of beautiful people with ugly souls. A world filled with secrets.

I pretended to be the girlfriend of one of the richest men in New York City. It was only meant to be the one time. I mean it was the week before Christmas, I was shopping with my best friend and we were hungry and wanted to dine at the new swanky restaurant on the upper west side. For some reason the hostess misheard me when I mentioned Max Parker’s name. I’d been complaining that he was the reason why I’d lost my job. Who was I to correct her when it meant that “my relationship” had caused a table to suddenly open up?

I play right ring, and I’m the team’s star forward. Hockey is in my blood, and my career is the most important thing in my life. Until I see her. She's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. Her blue eyes are as light as an Arctic winter—and just as icy—because not only is she the coach's daughter, but she wants nothing to do with hockey or hockey players. I’ll do whatever it takes to prove to her that she’s mine—even if it means stalking her.

I never intended to actually send the email. I’m not crazy. It was just a way to vent. I actually did need the money way too much to go off on my boss. Only when I went into office the next day, there was a note on my desk. It read, “A million years is up. See me in my office.”

Beau Hamilton is the biggest catch in Montana. He’s handsome, funny, and rich. As the oldest son and heir to one of the largest ranches in the state, he’s one of the most eligible bachelors around. And he knows it. His brother is marrying my best friend, and we’re both in the bridal party. He’s the best man, and I’m the maid of honor.

To the rude guy in apartment five, I’m glad you’re happy to have moved into a new apartment, but no: I do not want to have a beer with you. I do not want to have a nude sleepover. I do not want to make you breakfast, lunch or dinner, no matter how many lap dances you promise to give me. I do not need you to serenade me through the walls at 1am. And no, I have no interest in letting you take me on a date. Sincerely, Magnolia Allen

I didn't believe I had a twin until I met Ashlee and saw myself in the eyes of her daughter. I was adopted. I understand why someone might seek out their biological parents, but I'm not her daughter's father. I shouldn't be the one caring for her after a car accident. This attraction between us is something I shouldn't act on. She's not mine. Her daughter isn't either. I've located the man Ashlee came looking for, but introducing her to him could endanger us all. Falling in love with the mother of my twin's child would be a mistake, but I can't stay away.

The locations of the six training bases have been revealed, and now it’s down to us to make sure the people there stay alive. Special Agent Hollan, the man who killed my father, always seems to be one step ahead in this deadly game of chess. Will we reach the other bases in time to warn them of an imminent attack? I have my five guys by my side as we travel, and stolen glances and secret kisses hold promises for our future...assuming we all live long enough.

I find myself in the clutches of the monster who murdered my father. He wants something from me - something I have no intention of ever giving him. But there are men with him who I fear more, men who will take whatever they want from a woman, whether or not she agrees. Locked in a dark cell, with threats coming at me from every direction, only one thing keeps me going - that the five guys who burst into my life so unapologetically will now come to rescue me.

To Marco (No I’m not going to add Polo), Last night was a mistake. A big mistake. Or rather should I say small? I don’t want to hurt your ego. I should have listened to your sister. You’re insufferable and rude and far too cocky. Don’t worry, I won’t be telling anyone what happened because as far as I’m concerned it never did. Please stop calling me. I do not need to come and collect my bra from you. Or the t-shirt you lent me to sleep in when I got cold. No, that one act doesn’t make you a gentleman. And no, I do not need to have your smell near me to fall asleep.

I belong to five men now. I gave them not only what was in my head, but also my body. Secluded in a cabin in the middle of nowhere, I'm learning more about what these men do to survive, and what I'll need to do if I'm to survive with them. Though my instincts tell me to hunker down and enjoy the dangerous pleasures these men have to offer, my heart tells me we have to move. Will we get what we came for, or will our combined foe threaten the safety of us all? And will the delights I find in the dark of night, still be with me when the day breaks?

Mariana isn’t the kind of woman I ever expected to have a chance with. Not when I’m a rough enforcer, someone who shouldn’t be within 10 feet of anyone as innocent as Mariana. But I can’t shake my need to have her, and when she looks at me with those big eyes, I can feel the heat behind them. She wants me just as badly.
