Wrongful Desires
Young and innocent Raven Gables was strictly off limits, a fact Creed Lyons made sure to remind every surrounding male—including himself. Keeping her at arm's length Creed was content to watch the young beauty from afar, but cruel fate always found a way to laugh in his face.
From the moment Creed arrived to rescue her, Raven knew the taciturn soldier covered in tattoos would change her life forever. Over the years he had become more than just a proxy “uncle” in her eyes, he was the dark-eyed man that haunted her dreams. The question was, would Creed ever see more than just a tragically orphaned schoolgirl?
Like family, it was his job now to care and look after her, but God help him he wasn't prepared for this type of hell. There was only so much a man could take staring back at wide innocent eyes that begged the predator inside to devour her.

No woman could get under his skin and enrage him like Salene could. With each passing day, Gabriel could feel his hard earned control slipping towards his prim and proper house guest.

Lost and Found
She was an ever smiling innocent. Rescued from sleeping on the streets, Misha stepped into the dangerous family of the Russian mafia. Her smiling bright nature was in violent contrast with the mob boss. Mikhail Kulakov was quiet, lethal, calculative, --and ten years her senior.

His Smile
Roman Mashir was the man that stepped out of shadowed corners wearing a smile. Cruelty and laughter were synonymous in his world. Roman was the devil who caught your gaze and grinned back at you in your nightmares.
Fear was what he liked to see, expected even—bright eyed infatuation was not.
Rahina Chopra was persistent, annoying, naïve, and beyond foolish. While she danced happily in moonlight he was the devil who aimed his sights and pulled triggers.
She had no business fluttering carelessly into his world, he had made too many enemies, laughed in the face of one too many dying men to be allowed the luxury of her beauty.
But she recklessly fell in love with the madman, despite everyone's warnings--despite his warnings.
So, she stepped closer. Further into the psychopath's hands sliding around her throat and closed her eyes to his grip fastening tightly close. Rahina didn't want Roman's status, his power, or his wealth the only thing she wanted was—his smile.

With a tent and some camping gear, she is determined to find refuge and a new start to life in the peaceful woods of Oregon.

He has his cabin, his peace and quiet, and above all else is solitude. So when he happens to find some young woman sorely unprepared and close to getting herself killed in his woods he gives her a hard but fair choice: leave with his aid or leave tied and gagged over his shoulder, but either way she was leaving his damn forest.

But his help wouldn't be free--he was going to put the little vagabond to work.
With her days filled with hard work, back and forth bickering and her nights filled with exhausted sleep in Jax's safe, cozy cabin, Alessia could finally for the first time in months breathe easy and forget about the monster in her past.

A Love So Wrong
Gideon Lattimore was the town's all-star prince. Mr. Perfect, who gave out gleaming smiles and wicked winks--and he was Jade's hero. From the moment she met him, they had been inseparable. For Jade, Gideon was everything: he was her self-proclaimed protector, her best friend, and her family.
Living in a beautiful, sleepy town by the ocean surrounded by family and friends, their sparkling futures were all mapped out.

For now, though, life was simply perfect, and Jade was content to dream.
But everyone knows perfect things never last.
Cast from the only place they had ever called home, Jade and Gideon Lattimore are forced to downsize their lives into seventy-seven inches of their recently deceased father's semi-truck.

Never Just Friends
They were friends.
She was like family.
Dammit, they were just friends…right?
Maritzia DeLeon has been Cade's best friend since the day he moved into her family's apartment building in middle school. Accepted into the fold of her big family, they grew up together running around the streets of The Bronx like they owned them. It took shipping off to the army for seven years to realize just how golden those years were by her side. But now he was back, and though some things have changed their friendship hasn’t—right?
She was like family.
Yet with every caught stare and lingering look Cade could feel the unavoidable truth rising to the surface.
She was a friend.
So why were his nights plagued with dreams of breaking her boyfriend's jaw and pulling her into his arms where she belonged?
They were just friends.
Maybe, if he said the words enough times—he could start believing them.
Wanting More
Abandoned by her mother.
Forced out of her home.
Rejected by her so called "uncle."
It was safe to say life wasn't looking so great.
Fine. Sapphire didn't need them anyway. She would survive this crappy small town and endure the stares from the locals just until graduation, and then she was out of here and never looking back.
That was the plan, until they saw her. The Heathens.
Rough, violent, and ruthless, they laid claim to the town. They were fearless. Brutal. Unstoppable.
Giving her no choice, they pulled her into their world, telling her it was for her own good.
She was prepared to fight them every step of the way, to show them and anyone else in this damn town she was in control of her life and no one else. But she didn't expect these two powerful men show her warmth. She didn't expect them to look at her and truly see her.
Every day, she was getting pulled in more and more into their lives and further ensnared in this town.
She had to get out of here. She couldn't focus on the need in their eyes or the clash of jealousy between them when it came to her. She had her plan, dammit. She had to get out of here. Didn't she?

Ensnared
Their paths were never supposed to cross.
But her brother made a costly mistake.
The first time he saw her, he wanted her.
The next time, he was obsessed.
He should’ve left her alone.
He watched her.

He infiltrated her life.
It was supposed to be one night. Just one night for payback. But one taste was his undoing.
He would never let her go.
