Book Two in the Hail Royalty Duology ARTEMIO ROME: He's an error in my code. Griffin Knight. He's not supposed to crawl under my skin and hibernate there when I thought I extracted him a year and a half ago. I never needed his fake promises of a future with rose pedals and smiles. I've walked down that road before, and I refuse to bow at another man's feet. I will not be ruined a second time, and I most certainly will not be ruined by Griffin Knight. All love has shown me are the ways I don't deserve it, so I put an ocean and a block list between Griffin and me. So, why is it the minute I set foot back on U.S. soil, I am automatically magnetized to the one I tried so hard to leave behind? Not only am I forced to work with him toward my best friend, Prince Cyprus, wedding day, why does he have to be Evander's best man? Also, why? Just why was he recruited as a model by my Mother for my debut fashion line? Why do I have to go through the torture of seeing him in close quarters almost every day? And why is he suddenly starting to notice the signs of my past that I've worked so hard to keep hidden? Why is my guard slipping around him? Why does his touch promise safety and security, when I'm never supposed to know what that feels like? I don't even like to be touched, but why do I start to crave his? No, he can't slip past my walls. He'll see everything. He'll see every weakness I've worked so hard to keep hidden. And he'll see nothing except the dead shell of a person I mask like an expert. But why does it seem like every time he looks at me and sees through my facade... that he wants to bring me back to life? He's an error in my code. But I suppose errors can lead you toward something you swore you never deserved. Love.

Book two of The Heartbreak Club Duet: Catching Tate Archer & Rescuing Damon Stryker. TATE STRYKER: It's been two years, four months, and thirteen days since I last saw my husband. And then, out of nowhere, Sebastian Villan shows up on my doorstep, calling me out on my bullshit. Six months ago, I figured out what caused Damon to vanish, but I couldn't get the answers to the questions I had. It caused me to spiral out of control, and ruin my life. And I knew I was doing it. I pushed my family away, failed out of school, and my apartment was on the brink of eviction. When Sebastian shows up, he tells me the full story, and I am more than devastated. And after we talk, he tells me that I need to tell my husband what I'd been up to. A.K.A. Sebastian was giving me the chance to tell Damon to come home. To tell him how messed up I am. So, I do. And Damon does come home. But nothing is the same anymore. Damon is traumatized, in pain, and afraid. He lost his brother. His hero. His partner in crime. And not only did he lose Ethan, he lost me as a result of his horrifying trauma. He'd been working through it, but there are areas he refuses to speak about-to the point that sometimes he refuses to speak at all. I have to rescue him. Our marriage. Our future. But that means he has to be willing to save himself. It's not going to be easy, but it will sure as hell be worth it. I've waited over two years for him to come home, and I can't lose him when I finally have him back.

Book One of Five in the New Beginnings Series. **You do NOT have to read Inhale, Exhale, & Breathe to enjoy these stories** #1 in bxb tag: 09/21/2024 #4 in friendstolovers tag: 9/21/2024 CYRUS PIERCE: I'm content in my almost soundless world. I prefer to live through the romance stories I weave and post online. Hardly anyone reads my books, even if they're free, but I do have one fan, and he's supported me since I started writing two years ago. Except, my writing started to take a depressing dive when I realized that you simply couldn't prevent nor protect your heart from falling for someone. For him. For the one who had no interest in me. When I fell in love with him, I thought we had a chance. It was an accident. Turned out, I couldn't be more wrong. He doesn't want me, and I wasn't supposed to have him. It didn't matter if he showed up in the bookstore every day, talking to everyone else except me. Nor did it matter at all because he didn't know sign language. He couldn't learn. We couldn't communicate. But after I go on a date and it ends in putrid disaster, he makes his appearance known, and he's angry. Then he's doing things for me that confuse me. My stories are filling up with pages of content, dreams that I want to come true, and my mystery commenter encourages me to continue-to reach my happiness. To take what I want. But the activities planned start sparking familiarity-like I lived it before, or maybe dreamed it. Or maybe, just maybe, I'd written it before? My mind is spiraling, but I can't stop myself from getting closer and closer to him. I'm not supposed to have him, but my heart craves him. Sage Monroe, I'm in love with you, and I'm scared now because I have a feeling that you've been communicating with me in more ways than one.

"Leo pinned me against the wall with his hips; his hands gently gripping my wrists, keeping my arms above my head against the cool brick behind me. His beautiful, hazy blue eyes -that had turned straight quicksilver, again- were filled with such an intense, carnal desire I couldn't even look into them, so I looked over his shoulder. I saw a small group of kids from the group standing out by their cars who would easily be able to see what we were doing...or at least what Leo was doing to me. At that moment, my mind started wandering to all the things that I could be doing to him right now...but I stopped that train of thought, immediately, as it started heading to all the wrong places... All the dirty places... All of those places involving a very hard part of my body... I glanced back at Leo; his gaze was still as intense as it was before (unfortunately). He smirked at me and said confidently, "You can't ignore me forever, Ethan. You're eventually gonna fall for my charms..." Ethan Carter was focused on 2 things. 1. School (obviously) and 2. Getting over ex (it's proving to be, harder than he thought), but now he has to add dying to that list, and suddenly having feelings for a boy (which has happened once before, but Ethan tries to forget it). Leo Malone makes Ethan feel things he's never felt for another guy. Leo's sweet, patient, and understanding, the only problem is, he's a guy. Ethan tries to ignore the fact that his heart flutters every time he sees Leo, or that he can't ever stop thinking about him; but if having cancer has taught him one thing, it's that, "You have to live in the present, as you may not have a future."

I shake my head, eyes fixed anywhere but the gorgeous man next to me. His hand grips my chin tightly, just enough to make me avert my eyes to his. "You know you want this as much as I fucking do. I want you to be mine. I want to be the one to hold you and kiss you the one you go to whenever you're happy or fucking sad. But let it be me, let me fucking show you that it should be me."

A look of shock flashes over his face before he disguises it with a smirk and says," Is that so? Well then, I guess that means I'll have to stay by your side all night."
