William Stratford is more than my professor. He’s my one-night stand. My secret. And my enemy. I have a plan for fighting him, along with the secret society that threatens the college. Despite his knowledge and his power, despite the sensual thrall he holds over me, when the bell rings, he’s the one who’s going to learn a lesson.

Fkboi rule #1: No sleepovers. It’s a solid rule I’ve been living by for years. Until the new roommate moves in. Not only is she breaking my biggest and most important rule, but my patience as well. Girl has a sharp tongue I’d love to put to other uses, watchful green eyes I like having on me more than I should, and worst of all, she’s constantly bringing dates around here. Excuse me, but uh, that’s what I do. At least that’s what I did before Paige showed up, occupying my apartment, my thoughts, and after a particularly bad nightmare, my bed.

It was supposed to be one night with a handsome stranger. I never thought I would see him again. Until the first day of class. He’s my new professor. And my ex-boyfriend’s father. He has a world of secrets in his eyes, and the weight of the world on his shoulders. I should stay away from him, but the more I try, the more consumed he gets.

I'll never forget the first time I saw Berkley Black. I can still picture what she was wearing and how she took my breath away—she was the most beautiful girl I'd ever seen. The love we shared was something I know I'll never experience again... but I walked away, even though it was the hardest thing I've ever done. When an injury takes away my spot as QB1, I jump at the chance to be near her again, even if it means torturing myself.

I thought I was attending a wedding. But what I didn’t realise was that it was mine. Lorenzo Ricci is cold, commanding and the last man I’d ever choose. I’m told I’m his now, bound by a vow I never agreed to. But he’ll learn quickly enough that I don’t break, and I certainly don’t bow. Not even for him.

What's better than a sunny beach vacation for my winter break? Maybe being snowed in with a gorgeous stranger…. Let’s go to the beach for winter break, my sorority sisters said. It will be a blast, they said. Sand, salt water, hot surfers. What more could I want for the holidays? Well. Nobody considered the chance for a winter storm grounding all flights, changing my layover from hours to days and leaving me utterly stranded.

Tragedy has left me with nowhere to go. Until my dad's best friends—a stern cop and a cocky electrician—take me in and give me a home. But Cole and Travis are used to being bachelors. Having a young woman to look after is difficult to say the least. Lucky for them, I don't want to be taken care of. I want to push their limits. I want to break their rules. I want them. They're twice my age. Off-limits. Completely forbidden. The longer we live under one roof, the harder it is to pretend there's no chemistry brewing between us. I'm not their responsibility anymore. I'm their temptation.

At this point, I'm starting to lose track of how many people are trying to ruin my life. My parents. My ex and his mistress. Pasha's enemies (and believe me, there are a lot of those). But Pasha abandoning me in the hardest moment I've ever faced is the cherry on top. He swore he'd be here... but he's not. Until, suddenly, he is. The problem is, that might be worse. Because the man I loved has turned into something else. A monster. A stranger. And our happily ever after has never looked farther away

My twin and I knew we were going home to strangers who would be living in our house. I tried to prepare myself, telling myself to be kind and polite. But what I wasn't prepared for was… her. Bellamy Clark. With her long, fiery red hair and the freckles that I couldn't stop staring at, her curious green eyes felt like they were peering straight into my soul. The first time I saw her, I had to remind myself to breathe. Within hours of being under the same roof, I found myself wanting to run, though not for reasons I was willing to admit.

They say hockey players always protect their own. But my pack proved that was a lie. After spending my heat completely alone, resulting in a near-death experience and a hospital stay, I knew I had to cut my pack out of my life. One phone call to my brother and I find myself back in my hometown...

The day my stepsister died, she took my heart with her. Now, I'm a shell of a man, a cold-hearted monster. Imagine my surprise when the love of my life shows up at Whitmore University alive and well. I'm ready to make her pay for destroying me. This isn't a fairy tale, and I'm sure as hell no knight in shining armor. I have no problem dragging her into my dark world along with me. But when I dig for the truth about that fateful day, I can no longer deny my feelings about the only girl I've ever loved. And just as I vowed to destroy her, I vow to protect her even if it costs me my life.

A shadow looms over Tanglewood University. It threatens the professors and the students. It threatens the dean. I’m powerless to stop corruption that goes deep into the city’s underworld. Professor William Stratford has the secrets we need. And I find inside me a strength that has nothing to do with escaping my family. It has to do with building a new one. Can we reclaim the college? Can we forge a future together?

I ask for nothing. I bow to no one. Then, Teagan Mercer arrives on campus. She's to blame for destroying my life, but I refuse to let her ruin my shot at the NFL. I will never forgive her for what she did, and I have the power to make her pay. When the memories come rushing back, I fall into the darkness that nearly destroyed me. But this time, I'm taking her down with me.

Cole Parker is my worst nightmare. He's a straight-up asshole who lives to torment me, and he'll stop at nothing to punish me over the smallest slight. When he digs up a sex tape starring—you guessed it—me, he takes bullying to a whole new level, using it to blackmail me into doing his bidding. If the video gets out, it will ruin me. But my stepbrother makes it clear that he doesn't give a damn. He drags me deep into his dark and twisted world, showing me the monster he hides beneath his handsome exterior, taking risks that put our lives in danger.

Wynter Baldwin is responsible for my twin sister's death. She's playing a dangerous game by showing up at Whitmore University. The day she destroyed my world, I swore revenge. Now, I'm a football god and part of a secret society. A brotherhood that will have my back as I ruin her. When I begin to unravel the truth about my twin, I question everything I know about Wynter. Before I realize it, I'm caught up in a web of lies, and the one girl I vow to destroy is the only one who can save me.

He's stalking me. Someone has been in my home, left messages on my wall. I've had dreams that a stranger in a mask touches me while I'm sleeping, forcing my body to bend to his wicked ways. But I want more. Crave more. He has the key to release me from my prison. Can I trust him, or will he be the end of me instead?
