One reckless night. One secret marriage. One runaway wife. Arden Chase came to Briarhaven for a quiet summer with her glamorous cousin, Caroline "Coco" Chamberlain. She expected old money manners, pretty dresses, and maybe a little gossip. She did not expect Noah Barclay. Charming, dangerous, and heir to Barclay Aviation, Noah has a reputation every woman in Briarhaven knows by heart. He is the kind of man Arden should avoid, especially when Coco warns her that Noah has a habit of making women believe they are the exception. But Noah looks at Arden like he sees something no one else ever has. One impossible night turns into a secret elopement. By morning, Arden is Mrs. Noah Barclay. By midnight, she is gone. Because Arden hears enough to believe the truth is worse than heartbreak. Noah did not choose her. Not really. She was a mistake, a substitute, maybe even a weapon in an old game between Noah and Coco. Six months later, Arden has built a quiet life far from Briarhaven, far from the husband who broke her heart before anyone even knew he had it. Then Noah finds her. And this time, the man everyone said would never stay is determined to prove that his runaway wife was never second choice. The Runaway Wife is a steamy, emotional contemporary romance set in the scandal soaked world of The Briarhaven Scandals, where old money, gossip, secrets, and heartbreak collide.

"You stand in front of that class and call me Mr. Kozlov like I didn't used to fall asleep with your fingers in my hair, baby. Like I don't have eight years of your handwriting memorized on my own skin. You think a desk between us is a wall. It's not. It's a countdown. Grade my papers, professor. Take attendance. Pretend you don't feel me watching you the way I used to watch the door of that church, waiting for you to walk through it. I let the whole world believe I died for you once. I will let this entire academy burn to the ground before I let you convince yourself I'm your student and nothing else. So go on. Write my name in red ink at the top of the page. I'll take every single failing grade you hand me - as long as it's your hand that's shaking when you write it, baby." - Alexei Kozlov To St. Jude's Academy, Alexei Kozlov is exactly what he looks like - golden, reckless, criminally charming, the heir every parent warns their daughter about. To Professor Christina George, he's a ghost sitting in the front row of her first lecture. She built an entire life on the other side of grief, on a promise she swore she'd keep no matter what it cost her. He built an entire life on the other side of a grave, on a devotion that never once asked permission to stop. Some things don't stay buried. Some love doesn't know how to end just because everyone agreed it should. And some students don't take no for an answer - not from their professor, not from the world, not from eight years of silence they never chose. She has one job: survive the semester without letting him find out she never stopped loving him. He has one goal: make her say his real name - the one only she ever used - before the term ends. Every rule at St. Jude's exists to be broken by somebody. Alexei Kozlov has simply decided the rule in question is going to be her. __ "TEACH ME" is Book One of the "ME" Series.(A standalone book)

She didn't come to the United States to be noticed. Tara Khanna came with a scholarship, a past she doesn't talk about, and just enough money to survive. Between lectures, part-time work, and sleepless nights, her only goal is simple-stay invisible and make it through. And for a while... she succeeds. Because by day, she's just another quiet student. The girl who sits at the back. The one no one remembers. But Tara has built a life no one sees. A life behind glowing screens and silent code. A life where she earns in ways no one questions. A life where the night belongs to her. Because when the city sleeps... She doesn't. In the underground world of illegal street racing, Tara isn't invisible-she's untouchable. Known by a name no one at the university would ever connect to her, she lives for speed, risk, and the kind of freedom she's never had. Everything is under control. Until it isn't. Because some things can't stay hidden forever. Not from them. Luca Moretti. Ethan Carter. Sebastian Klein. Zane Walker. Four men. Best friends. Untouchable in their own ways. They don't chase. They don't lose. And they don't share. Until her. She was never meant to be seen. Never meant to be known. And she definitely wasn't meant to have all four of them watching her. But secrets have a way of surfacing. And when her worlds begin to collide- between late-night races, hidden codes, and dangerous attention- Tara realizes one thing: She doesn't have to choose. Because they've already decided. They all want her. They're used to winning... but she was never part of the game.

"You wanna stay alive?" The old man asks, eyes fierce with conviction as he speaks to me, "Real world or underground, be aware of the Blacks, kid. It's the best advice one can give." I hide a grin. I live with them, after all. "Be aware?" I ask in response, "Not be beware?" "Both," The old man nods solemnly. ~~~ Alina Black, the eldest of the Black siblings, is consumed by the future. Aurora Black, the youngest and most unaware, is obsessed with the past. Both sisters wake up and go to sleep with the same word on their lips: survival. Their seven brothers stumble through the present, recklessly, in ignorance of the word. Finally reunited, the siblings must reckon not only with themselves and each other, but also the chaos of human existence - especially their family's extravagant, immoral one. ~~~ OR more briefly: The one where a long lost sister returns to her mafia family (by stalking them) with a very not cliche plot (right from the beginning, because she's proactive and stalks them) but some cliche moments that everyone loves (like the second oldest brother being the gentlest with her).

So I survived by becoming cold. I buried the girl who believed in fate and built walls no one could climb. I don't need their apologies. I don't need their hunger. I don't need men who only learned my worth after losing me. They can chase all they want. I'm already gone. -PACK ROSS- We don't remember rejecting her. But our bodies do. The bond woke up wrong. Sharp, violent, relentless. We feel her absence like starvation. Like something vital was ripped out and taken where we can't follow. She won't look at us. She won't soften. She treats us like predators, and it's driving us insane. We want to claim her. We want to fix it. We want what we're no longer sure we deserve. She says we're too late. The bond says she's still ours. One of us is lying.
