Asher Greenly is determined to keep Jackal Riley safe no matter the cost. But when his ultimate sacrifice results in the loss of everything he's worked so hard for, a tough decision must be made. Will he throw away everything he's worked so hard for to save the Sparrows? And can he survive what awaits him on the other side?

One can't escape death. One wishes it would find him. When red letters keep appearing in Asher's locker, he'll stop at nothing for answers. Who is Draven? What happened to Damon Brooks? And how far is Jack willing to go to keep the secrets buried? This season, the stakes aren't just about winning. They're about survival.

"Are we mates, then?" Fenn found himself asking. Atlas nodded. Fenn looked away again. He wasn't sure what to think of that. That nagging feeling deep inside him warned him that the Alpha might be lying. With his wolf gone, he was vulnerable. If the Alpha had figured out he was an Omega, pretending to be his mate would be an excellent way to trick him into bearing a child. "I know you're probably not ready for all that entails," Atlas said with a sigh. "We can take things slow. Even pause it entirely if you need time to just heal. Just say the word." ^°^°^°^ After escaping the cruel confines of his captors, Fenn stumbles across a pack that could change his life forever. However, his past has taught him that some secrets are safer kept secret, and that no one should be trusted. Will he be able to open himself up or will he be crushed by the weight of his trauma? There was only one thing Fenn knew for certain: he had to catch those responsible for his years of torment before they could catch him again. Started: 6/5/24

Book 1 In Miami's heat, where bodies drop and secrets burn, Brycier finds himself tangled in the arms of the city's most dangerous man-the one who was never supposed to care. A slow-burn hood romance soaked in blood, fear, and first love.

Asher Greenly never wanted to play football. But at Kingsly Academy--a school where the rich and powerful call the shots--he doesn't have a choice. If he wants to keep his scholarship, he has to suit up. The coastal town of Willowbrook might look like something out of a vintage postcard, but beneath the neon lights and old-school charm lurks something far more sinister. Student athletes are going missing. Some turn up dead. And no one is talking. Asher has spent his life hiding his darkest secret: he can see the dead, and they're interfering with all his plans to lay low for his first year of college. But when he catches the attention of Jackal Riley--the too-handsome, too-clever captain of the football team--Asher realizes he's not the only one keeping secrets. Jackal knows something about the disappearances. Something about the shadowy forces puppeteering it all. And something about Asher that he's yet to discover himself. Now, Asher is playing a game he never signed up for-one where losing doesn't just cost scholarships. It costs lives. And the people pulling the strings? They've already set their sights on him.
