I'm hanging by a thread, with the fate of my sisters in my hands. As a late-blooming Omega in a poor neighbourhood drowning in crime, I'm desperate to hide my designation secret. I do the only thing I can and approach the three craziest alphas I can find, the only ones I would entrust my body, my family, and my life to. I take the biggest leap of faith. It's all or nothing.

Four years ago, I did the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do. I walked away from the love of my life. She was young; she needed to go and live her dreams without me dragging her into my darkness. She’s also the little sister of my best friend. Now, Ella is back, and she’s not 18 anymore. I’m not going to make the same mistake twice. She is mine. I will make sure everyone knows it, including her.

Did you know the medical term for a butt crack is intergluteal cleft? My name is Reagan, and spouting random facts like this one at inopportune moments is my affliction. I’m chronically awkward, socially inept, and completely lack a filter. Believe it or not, men do not find these attractive traits. When my sexy-as-sin neighbour barges into my apartment at the arse crack of dawn, everything changes.

My name’s Charlotte. I’m a fashion blogger and city girl, through and through. I also have the misfortune of sharing my uterus with a demon I’ve come to call Lilith. Doctors call it Endometriosis, but potato, potarto.... I am determined to live a fulfilling life despite the endless battle with my body. It would just be my luck to find an awesome man when I’m in no condition to do anything about it. Not that I thought I would ever in a million years be attracted to a flannel-clad llama farmer. Me, flannel, and llamas absolutely do not mesh.

Casey Daniels has a past forged in hell. Despite the friends, the endless supply of women, and the muscle car he spent years restoring, it still eats away at him. Grace Paterson is in Sydney as a temporary bassist for Jamieson, the band Casey handles security for. She’s also infuriating, off-limits, and completely irresistible. A deal is struck, and despite their intense and powerful connection, both think it will be easy to walk away. But life can be more ruthless than either of them ever imagined.

Evie Jamieson, a former wild child, is not only a headstrong, smart-mouthed trouble magnet, she is also a lead singer with a plan. That plan involves uprooting her band, including her two best friends guitarist Henry and band manager Mac, to Sydney to kick off their dreams of hitting the big time. Jared Valentine is the older brother of Evie's best friend Mac and also the man determined to make Evie his. They strike up a long-distance friendship that suits Evie because she's determined to avoid the distraction of love.

My name is Tilly, and when I was 17, I lost the love of my life because my mum and his dad did the nasty, made a baby, then got hitched. It drove us apart, me into the arms of another and him as far away as he could get. Now six years later, he shows up telling me he doesn’t care that he’s my stepbrother, that we share a sibling, or that I’m a single mum with three kids to a guy he’s always hated. He wants me back and he’s willing to prove it.

Quinn Salisbury doesn’t think she’s cut out for this whole living thing. Even as a young girl she struggled. Just when she thinks she’s found a way to leave her violent past behind her, the only thing that’s kept her going is ripped away, leaving her damaged and heartbroken. Four years later, she is slowly rebuilding her life and lands a job as an assistant band manager to Jamieson, the hot new Australian act climbing their way to the top of the charts. There she meets Travis Valentine, the charismatic older brother of her boss, Mac.

I’m a college student with a secret past. Not only did I boost cars, but I was also the best in the business. I’m trying to go straight, but the Marchetti Organization has other plans, and now I’ve got 12 weeks to complete a job so big it’s almost impossible. I’m on a tight deadline, but an irritating biker dude keeps thwarting my attempts to deliver. He’s the big bad wolf my brother always warned me away from, but doesn’t every girl want a bad boy who’s good just for her?

Mackenzie Valentine is willful, fiery, and determined to prove she doesn’t need anyone. Desperate to break free from the over-protective parents and three older brothers who dictate her every move, she runs away at the age of 17 to hunt down the only boy who makes her feel alive. Jake Romero has no choice but to leave the best thing that ever happened to him, taking him down a path that leads to notorious gang the King Street Boys. When fate throws Mackenzie back in his life, he turns her away in her time of need, knowing he now lives a life in which she doesn’t belong.
