WARNING: Contains mature content for 18+ audience. *** Fear isn't enough for Keir Blackstone. He wants to own her, to slip under her skin and take root, to make sure she never breathes without whispering his name in the dark. Seraphine Aldridge is perfection. Composed, brilliant, and untouchable, she moves through life like a queen among pawns. Threats don't shake her. She's faced ruthless prosecutors, greedy corporations, and men who think power belongs to them. Until him- her stalker. He doesn't want her to run; he wants her to know she can't. That no matter where she goes, she will always be his. Every step, every breath, every terrified gasp already belongs to him. So, she listens to fear for the first time and hires a bodyguard. Keir Blackstone is the perfect choice-silent, lethal, dangerous in all the right ways. Just not in the way she expects. There's something about him that unsettles her. The way he looks at her. The way he seems to know her every move before she makes it. The way he seems more interested in her than in keeping her safe. The way his presence feels less like protection and more like possession. And when she looks at him, she swears she sees something familiar. Little does she know, she just hired the very monster she's trying to escape.

"The Hacker and the Mob Boss" ❦ Reyna Fields seems to be an ordinary girl with her thick-framed glasses, baggy clothes, hair always up in a ponytail, and her head tucked away behind a computer screen. However, no one knows she's armed with a genius IQ and a heart of gold. She hacks her way into virtual systems on a search for her mother. Unfortunately for her, she has hacked into the wrong database. She hacked into the database of the notorious mob boss, Santino "Saint" Venturi. Saint is the opposite of his name. He's known for his ruthlessness. As a mob boss to a mafia, he learned to eat or be eaten. When Reyna stumbles upon his database, a plan dispersed into his mind. He's going to take her. ❦ "I don't share, angel." "He's a friend," she found herself saying. Dante was too busy staring at her to notice the fiery glare in Saint's eyes. She was mentally praying that Dante would just look away. His fingers trailed up her leg before his hand latched onto her sex. He held her there while a small gasp left her lips. "I will fuck you on this table if he doesn't stop looking at what belongs to me." ❦ READ BOOK 2 -> The Kingmaker HIGHEST RANKING: #5 romance - 6/26/22 Dark Romance Cover by @-simplyhann
