W H I T E O U T ❅ The contract was simple: Two weeks. Two hundred grand. Don't fall in love. For 𝑱𝒐𝒆𝒍𝒍𝒆 𝑩𝒂𝒑𝒕𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒆, it's a desperate bid to survive her debt. For 𝑯𝒂𝒅𝒓𝒊𝒂𝒏 𝑺𝒊𝒏𝒄𝒍𝒂𝒊𝒓, the cold heir to a billion-dollar empire, it's just business. Play the adoring girlfriend for his family's winter retreat, take the money, and leave. Then a blizzard hits. Stranded entirely alone in a remote mountain estate, the icy boundaries between them melt into a bruising, suffocating heat. But when the snow clears and the contract expires, Joelle quickly learns a terrifying truth: Hadrian Sinclair doesn't let go of what's his. The phone lines are cut. The snowplow is sabotaged. The doors are locked. The blizzard is over, but Joelle's nightmare is just beginning. Because the only thing more dangerous than a man with a frozen heart, is the monster that wakes up when it thaws. ❅ "The contract has expired, Hadrian. The roads are clear. Let me go." His pale eyes dropped to my lips, his thumb tracing the pulse racing at my throat. "What roads, Joelle? It's still snowing. We're snowed in. We'll be snowed in forever."

Capo. Killer. Monster. A man built from violence and sharpened by it. He carries ghosts like scars beneath his skin, and every drop of blood on his hands has only made the silence inside him louder. Then he sees her. Azra Sorrentino is everything he isn't. Brilliant. Defiant. Unbreakable. A woman forged in cruelty who somehow emerged with her heart intact. She should hate men like Vince. Instead, she can't stop looking at him. What begins as fascination becomes obsession. What begins as safety becomes temptation. Because beneath Vince's control lives something dangerous: a possessiveness capable of destroying them both. And beneath Azra's independence lies a secret that could unravel everything she believes about herself. The deeper she falls into Vince's world of soldiers, blood debts, and buried sins, the more impossible it becomes to tell where salvation ends, and ruin begins. Because the greatest lie Vince Rossi ever told wasn't to the police. Or even himself. It was believing he could protect Azra from the chaos when he was the chaos. And when the truth about her past finally comes for them, both will discover that love is far more terrifying than violence. In a world ruled by monsters, saints don't survive. They become monsters too. ~ -HEA/No OWD -Romance/thriller -mature scenes (18+) -AGE GAP (26F and 39M) -DARK STALKER ROMANCE -stripperxmafia I DON'T OWN THE COVERS.

Completed | My brother's best friend, a forbidden fling, a tropical disaster - I never imagined a perfect getaway would take such a Wilde turn. I'd planned this holiday down to the last detail: sunshine, laughter, and absolutely no encounters with the one man I can't seem to forget. Jason Wilde. My older brother's best friend, the guy I couldn't resist as a teenager-and the mistake I made again at my brother's wedding. Jason might be hockey's most notorious playboy, but I swear I won't make the same mistake a third time. Arden doesn't settle - which might explain why she's still single but she's not willing to lower her standards and those standard do not include a flirty hockey player. But when a wild boat party turns into a disaster, stranding them alone on a deserted island, her carefully drawn line in the sand begin to blur. With no way out and nowhere to run, Arden begins to wonder if finding solace in Jason's arms might not be so bad after all. But giving in means risking everything she's fought to protect-including her heart. • • • She's always been off-limits. My best friend's little sister. The one person I promised myself I'd never touch. But damn, Arden has always had a way of getting under my skin, of making me forget every rule I've ever made. It started as a one-night stand-something I never intended to repeat - not the one-night part anyway. And now, here we are, stuck in a tropical paradise together. The tension between us is undeniable, and yet she's still denying the obvious. She's worth the risk. The problem? I can't let her know just how much it hurts when she shuts me down. I'm ready to give her everything - if only she'd let me. Because when it comes to Arden, I can't stay away and I'll take anything she's willing to give me, even if it's not forever. Some lines shouldn't be crossed - and some lines are just too blurred to find the boundary.

Coaching wasn't part of the plan. Coaching a college women's hockey team? Hell no. But when the offer comes from a desperate program and a paycheck he can't afford to ignore, he figures how hard can it be? The ice is about to get dangerously hot.
