Beyond Black & White Series Book 1: Bishop

by A. Duncan

Bishop is a gifted, guilt-ridden doctor who runs from duty and lands in a shadowed town. He stitches strangers by day and outruns himself by night. Quiet is his refuge—until Kallie. She is fierce, clever, and deaf; her silence steadies his storm. With her, the ache softens. But Bishop holds a secret with teeth, the kind that makes death keep its distance and turns a man into something else. When danger prowls and choices tighten, he must decide what to risk: the lie that keeps her safe, or the truth that could set them both on fire. What will Kallie see when the mask slips and the monster looks back?

by Simone Elise

“If any other man touches you, I’ll kill him. I own you.”

And then his lips slammed into mine.

From the moment Abby first lays eyes on Kade Wilson, he’s as repellent to her as oil to vinegar. Nicknamed The Reaper for his brutish nature, he’s a deadly biker from a rival club. But no matter how much she tries to shake him, every attempt to sever ties ends with her tangled in his sheets, drenched in his sweat. Can Abby quit her addiction to The Reaper before he lays claim to her? Does she even want to?
