River Kelley is smart, perceptive, almost calculating, with an alluring smile and irresistible eyes he always takes advantage of whenever needed. He knows how to play his cards and likes to feel desired, nonetheless he will never entirely open his heart and mind to anybody. The only exception is represented by his best friend Aleksandr -Sasha- Lebedev, who seems to understand him deeply. Yet, River has secrets even with Sasha, who constantly represented his only special person. Why can't he open his heart completely and admit his true feelings? What has driven him to guard himself and always use his attractive, playful smile as mask? Trusting another person can often bring pain and disappointment, and River doesn't wish to taste such bitter feelings once more. What will happen if he meets the only person capable of melting his guard and matching all he wants and needs in a partner? At first River might not be able to let go of his inner fears and ghosts, and it will take a courageous, rather controversial decision to make him open his eyes and be true to his feelings. Nicholas Lucas is very intelligent and attractive, playing his cards openly, without any secrets or regrets. With a sensitive, understanding, yet confident disposition Nic might be the only man River can completely love with all his heart; he might be the only one becoming the true special person, seeing beyond those irresistible eyes, discovering the secrets hidden there. But will it be possible for Nicholas to break the mask and wall River has built around himself? Will he be able to make the young man love him unconditionally with complete trust? It will take a strong act of love and selflessness, and Nic is ready to take the risk to conquer and keep River's heart, because he never gives up on what or whom he wants. And definitely he will never give up after having met River, for when those irresistible eyes glanced at him the first time Nic knew he wanted to see what was hidden beyond them.

"There is a charm about the forbidden that makes it unspeakably desirable" Anatoly Denisov, or Tolya, used to be a delinquent and member of a gang, as the tattoos on his skin testify. After leaving the gang, Tolya had to work hard to re-build his past relationships especially with his twin brother, Dima. Nothing was simple, but he realized how his family and friends were more than ready to give him a second chance. Oleg Azarov, personal assistant and bodyguard of Tolya and Dima's father, was the man that made Anatoly open his eyes and face reality through harsh and effective methods and bike races, the only common passion they apparently share. But something happened when following the duties. Oleg grew attached to Anatoly in a way he could not afford, as he could not develop feelings for someone 14 yrs younger, and especially not for the son of the man that gave him a new life. There is a line clearly marking duties and loyalty and Oleg is not man to cross it. Anatoly calls Oleg a "sadistic and scary bastard" and cannot stand the fact he always speaks of duties whenever he refers to him, but there is something he can't deny: the burning physical attraction he feels for that man. Yet, he totally refuses to listen to his desire. But what happens to this equilibrium when Anatoly, the forbidden fruit and sweetest temptation, decides that he wants Oleg and will have him no matter what? What happens when constant temptation is first offered unintentionally and then deliberately, slowly scratching the line marking borders forbidden to cross? What will happen when forgotten past comes back to taunt Tolya? Duties, desires, principles, remorse, lust, attraction, obligation, guilt, rules, forbidden, allowed, bike races, adrenaline, excitement, resolution, need, gangs war, possessiveness, unleashed emotions, uncontrollable feelings and love. The love you cannot resist, the love you cannot fight. All clashes and fuses and confuses in this story of forbidden love.

***** Words that I didn’t even know I knew began to bubble from my chest like a mantra, over and over again as I carefully cradled Danny to me.

The alpha. I looked up, slightly impatient, as he and a few of the other pack leaders quickly approached. It broke the mantra, but not for long. Nothing would stop me from doing this, not even my own blood. Especially when there was a tinge of fear in my leader’s voice. “Saving him.” And then I bit him. ***** Nothing in life goes as planned. It's a fact that Kieran Night and Danny Samuels know well. One has just lost everything he knew and moved across the country, and the other is an heir trying to get ready for a war.
