Ten years ago, Adrian Ellis vowed to hunt me down and claim me like a prize, but I haven't heard a word since. Now I'm thriving in New York City—with a blossoming art career, a fearless roommate-turned-best-friend intent on pushing me out of my comfort zone, and a true golden boy who has no idea how deep my darkness runs. But just as I'm ready to move on, Adrian reappears in my city and my life. He swears he isn't here for me, but as the seams of my carefully stitched world begin to fray, all signs point back to him, and I suspect he's been pulling the strings longer than I've known.

I've been promised to the don of New York's Italian mafia. Marrying him will save my family. Falling for his brother will destroy us all. I know only one way to acknowledge the anniversary of my mama's death—by drinking away the memories in a back street bar. But there's nothing like waking up...

Being the first female Formula 1 driver in the sport's history is like being struck by lightning. Powerful, electrifying, and dangerous. Don't get me wrong, it's incredible. Plenty of racing fans are celebrating. Plenty more are enraged, hoping I either quit or crash. They can hope all they want. I'll never quit. But there's more than Formula 1 fans to worry about. Like shaking hands with my Team Principal for the first time and his scent turning my entire world upside down. Like the rest of his pack—including the current Formula 1 champion—matching with me too.

I’m sure you’re wondering how a person falls in love with their stalker. So am I.

Three Alphas. One Omega. And a heat I never saw coming. All I want is to get my flower shop off the ground—on my own terms. But when trouble strikes… the town's most off-limits Alphas come to my rescue. Jake, the steady protector who's always been by my side. Ash, the brooding heir who...

Carlo Lambretti betrayed us, so now his debt will be paid in the most brutal way imaginable—with his daughter’s innocence. Once a little mafia princess, Aemelia Lambretti has fallen far. The raven-haired beauty shows up unexpectedly, waitressing at our sister’s wedding. At first, we think it’s a trap—a spy sent by her family or, worse, an assassin with vengeance in her veins. But she’s clueless about the blood spilled between our families, unaware of how her father’s betrayal led to our brother’s death. We let her go, planning to discover more about her when the wedding is over.

Ten men, a beach house, and a question to answer: Does size really matter? When my boss asks me to write an article on the age-old question of the importance of D-size, I stifle an eye-roll. This isn’t what I imagined I’d be doing after years of journalism classes. But when she presents me with the keys to an exclusive beach house, and the personal details of the ten men she’s lined up for me to interview, my eyes practically bug out of my head. It isn’t only because they’re hotter than the surface of the sun, or tall and broad enough to form a Great-Wall-of-Man.

Fifteen hours to fall in love. One second to lose it all. On the first day of my medical internship, I expected pressure. Maybe even chaos. I didn't expect him—Dr. Zachery Bennett, my most regular client at Eden—to be standing in the ER as the head of the department. Over one explosive...

Some of us were born into darkness. Others were shackled. They drugged me. Chained me. Tore apart my mind until the pieces didn't fit anymore. Then they gave me a name. Cleaner. Killer. Son. Monster. Told me the blood on my hands was hers. Then they smiled and made me kill again. And they told...

New Town. New job. No drama. That was the plan. Next thing I know, I'm falling off a boat into the Pacific Ocean, and the surliest Alpha in existence is rescuing me. Turns out? We're scent-matched. And he can't stand me. Cass—the grumpy sea captain with stormy eyes. JP—the brooding, sin-scented mechanic who looks at me like he wants to devour me. Quinn—the flirty single dad whose son already has my heart. Now I'm spiraling into my first heat, scent-matched to all three—and desperate to be knotted six ways from Sunday.

Of all the guys to walk in looking for a tutor, did it have to be Foster Kane? I’ve avoided him like the plague since our one night together freshman year turned into the world’s most humiliating disaster—followed by the worst year of my life. It wasn’t hard. I’m practically invisible on campus, while he’s the golden boy of the hockey team—popular, charming, and constantly surrounded by adoring fans. But avoiding him stops being an option when I’m assigned to be his math tutor. Now I’m stuck spending hours each week with the guy who once made me feel like nothing…

Welcome back to your darkest nightmare. I am Death, and they've stripped away my mask of mercy. My little lamb, I will paint the streets red until you're safe in my arms again.

My whole life, there was never a place I called my home. Because home wasn't a place to me; it was a person. Three people, to be exact. Everett, Griffin, and Zane. Three boys who always protected me against the harsh reality of our world. That is, until they aged out of the system before me. All the promises that were made were then broken. They left me behind and made a name for themselves as rock stars and never looked back. The next few years left me broken and closed off until it was my turn to leave. I had nothing and nowhere to go. That was until I found High Roller omegas.

Nothing is more important to Jesse King than his club and his daughter. He's a biker to the core. Gorgeous and lethal. Trouble at its finest. And I'm his daughter's new nanny… It's my job to take care of the one person in his life who comes before his patch. If only Jesse weren't making it so difficult. He's resistant. Infuriating. He doesn't trust anyone except for his brothers, and he fights me at every turn.

He ruined my best friend's life, and now he wants me. Benito Bernadi is the unhinged, feared and ruthless consigliere of the Di Santo mob and he's decided I need protecting. If Benito hadn't ruined the Falconi family two years ago, they wouldn't have dragged their son—my best friend—across...

Fate's Choice is not just an escape, but a chance of living out my dream, seeing my music sung by them to thousands of adoring fans. But as fast as I fell for them, they made it perfectly clear that I am basically the poster child for friend-zoned. A year ago, I ran. I couldn't take it anymore. I cut contact. But now they're back, demanding the song I promised them. Furious at my betrayal. They don't know how many secrets I keep, and the clock is ticking. My father, Typhor Raines, is going to trade me the minute he finds a lucrative merger, and all my dreams will be ash.

For fans of Gossip Girl and One Tree Hill... Through tangled webs and falsities, some masks protect and some masks deceive. The society pages have always painted Sloane Fielder as a reckless heiress, the same one her adoptive family believes her to be. But she's always known the truth: that...

Making decisions I regret is basically a hobby. So I guess it really wasn’t that surprising when I went out on a date with an Elite. And then he tried to assault me. I might be small, but I’m strong. I fought him off...then went straight to the dean. He didn’t believe me. No one does. And now my date from hell is in revenge mode, and I somehow end up in the campus pool. Did I mention I can’t swim?

I need a safe place to get away for a few days. My college roommate's family cabin in the middle of nowhere Montana is perfect. Maybe I should have called to ask permission first, then I would have found out the cabin had been sold... to Jack. I go to leave planning to spend the night in my car... only my car won't start. Jack may take pity on me and offer to let me stay a few nights until my car is fixed, but he doesn't know I have no place to go from there.

Most people think I’m a moron. In actuality, I’m a man with a plan. It’s one of those three-year plans that takes longer than three years. Still, I’ve been making it happen. Checking off those to-dos and turning them into to-dones. Everything is almost lined up. And then my phone rings. By the time I get to Jess, she’s unconscious and bleeding. My carefully crafted plan blows up in my face. I tell the hospital we’re engaged. We aren’t, but apparently, in that place, you need a permission slip to see your most important, so I do what has to be done.
