“We’ve all got a vice. Mine’s alcohol and punching things. What’s yours?” She asked, refusing to feel bad for her choice in extracurriculars when he had just shot someone in the head because of his. He chuckled dryly.
“Sex mostly.”
Katelynn grows up in a world of bruises, broken promises, and a father whose debts pull her deeper into danger. When a deal gone wrong hands her over to a powerful family, she braces herself for a life of fear. But Xavier, the heir who rules with fire and steel, doesn’t expect a girl who bites back instead of breaking. He’s been trained to pull the trigger without thinking, to take what he wants without asking—but with her, nothing is simple. The girl he should see as a pawn suddenly feels like a battle he doesn’t want to win. And being his captive? It’s supposed to be her worst nightmare. Yet somehow, against every rule and every scar, it feels like something far more dangerous—something she’s not sure she wants to escape.

In one day, I lost my job, saved my pregnant sister from committing suicide, and if that wasn’t enough, Kieran King walked into my life. I hated Kieran from the moment I laid eyes on him. He was an arrogant bastard that turned my life upside down. But no matter how much I despised and hated him, I couldn’t live without him. He blackmailed me, used me, was cruel and rough, and I wanted nothing more than to get away. But he also saved my life and protected me when I needed it most. Now I don’t know if I can leave anymore… I am Sophia Howard, and this is my story.

All I want to do now is keep away from dominant males. But then he comes, shattering all my walls.
Alaric: There’s an ache that gnaws at me and nothing can ever numb it.

But I’m the Bloody Alpha, feared and respected by all, and no one can change me. That is, until I meet her.

When darkness falls, will Hallie fall too?
The whole reason Hallie even joined this expedition into the temple hidden deep inside the Sumatran jungle was to escape her demons.

It’s not enough for just Hallie to awaken, though. She soon learns that she’s meant to awaken others—dragons, no less—by giving herself to the half-man, half-beast whose intense gaze and erotic ministrations truly redefine tall, dark, and handsome.
The darkness she faces now could chase away her own and finally give her a reason to stop running, but only if Hallie can learn to embrace the shadows.
