COMPLETED: 24/02/17 *Warning: LABELLED MATURE. Due to sexual content and graphic language, this book is recommended for readers 17+ in age* Rising boxer Jaxon Cage is known to be a fighter on and off the ring. He's a man on a mission; redeeming the death of his little brother, who was on his way to become a boxing star. Jaxon holds himself accountable for his brother's death and now takes his place in the ring to continue his dream. Turns out, he's a natural. With a 5-year-old daughter he's raising, he needs the money now more than ever and is steadily making his way to the top with the help of his Coach. There's just one problem - he's taken a keen interest in his Coach's daughter and can't afford the distraction or any further burdens. But resisting her and focusing on his torturous reality is easier said than done. Quiet and shy Emily Resnick leads a simple life as an elementary teacher. Or she did, until her father took the talented and outrageously handsome Jaxon Cage under his wing. Now, she finds herself consumed by the dark and brooding but secretly soft-hearted man. She was a goner for him the second she saw the devotion he gave to his daughter and new-found job. As she discovers the many layers to this difficult man, she can't help but want to ease his burdens and carry his demons. She can't help but want him, period. Jaxon is intent on pushing her away, though, and Emily must decide if she should run from the inevitable destruction of her heart while she can, or fight for the fighter.

Nolan, an unapproachable guy who ignores the existence of all his schoolmates, sleeps in all of his classes. Normally, this wouldn't be Chelsea Arnold's problem-she does her best to pay attention in class and attends gym like a good, normal student. Unfortunately, she just so happens to be his assigned desk partner in many classes. She's frequently forced to wake him in English class and ends up earning the unofficial title of Nolan's Wake-up Alarm-a title that nobody in the entire school covets. The last thing she wants is to interact with him more than she absolutely has to. One day, their gym teacher sends her to bring him back to class, which he always skips for some reason. When she accidentally shines her flashlight in his sleeping face, it triggers a chain of events that gradually intertwines their lives together.

"My name is Lucifer." He said taking another bite of the chicken wing. I let out a little laugh. "Not your hooker name, dumbo. Your REAL REAL name." I said emphasizing the word 'real'. "Lucifer is my REAL REAL name, you filthy human. And I am not a hooker!" He scrunched his face up looking at me as if I were the dirt stuck on his shoe. "You sure dress like it," I said with a playful smirk. "My clothes were burned when I fell. My underwear is fireproof because my junk is sensitive." "I did not need to know that information." **************************** When Arabelle Vivianne goes to a club to celebrate the ending of her first year of college, she doesn't expect to take home a very handsome and sexy, unconscious man, much less, the devil himself. -------------------------------------- Lucifer has fallen down from his home back in hell, only to land in a beautiful little human's arms. And when he realizes that he would be stuck in the mortal world, he comes back to her for hospitality. But Lucifer quickly realizes that there is much more to Arabelle than her quirky and nerdy but chic lifestyle. From the scar on her neck, to her locked up memories he can feel when he touches her. There is someone dangerous out on the loose who has the capability to destroy him but he needs to catch them before they catch him. What will he do when he realizes that all his leads to why he was stuck here, all point to the oblivious little angel providing him food and shelter from her kind heart? ********************************** WARNING: I have not plagiarized the popular show 'Lucifer' starring Tom Ellis. My plot is completely different and none of the characters have been copied. Lucifer in this book does not have a ridiculously sexy British accent nor is a cop. But he is quite handsome and cunning. And our protagonist is much the opposite of the amazing Chloe Decker.
