Kenzo

Kenzo

by Ivy White

Rebecca walks into the underground poker room with one goal: win enough money to pay off her father’s debts before men come to collect. She thinks she can cheat the table, read the players, and slip out unnoticed.

It’s a trap built by Kenzo Robernero, the cold, calculating leader of the Società Oscura. All of the players in the room answer to him. Each card on the table is stacked in his favor and every newcomer is watched.

Now Rebecca is caught in a room where the stakes are lethal, the rules are unwritten, and the man across the table doesn’t tolerate cheats, but he does notice them. And once Kenzo notices you, the night stops being about cards and starts being about survival.

Savage

by Kristen Mullings

He had me by the hair, my body taut in his other arm. I was so wet already I didn’t know if I could take it if he slid inside me.

I sighed with desire. Needing him. Right here. Right now...
