She's the one woman he can't forget. He's the mistake she's determined not to repeat. When Charlotte Ramirez walks away from a one-night stand with Noah Zhang, she never expects to see him again. But avoiding the heir to the most powerful Triad in the United States proves easier said than done. As a ruthless businessman, infamous playboy, and future mob boss, Noah is used to getting everything he wants. Unfortunately for him, the only thing he wants is Charlotte-the sharp-tongued socialite who refuses to give him a second chance. Charlotte has spent years perfecting her rules: never get attached, never be vulnerable, and never fall in love. Noah already convinced her to break those rules once. She has no intention of letting it happen again. But when circumstances force them back into each other's orbit, old chemistry quickly reignites. And with enemies closing in and dangerous family expectations threatening to tear them apart, resisting Noah becomes harder than ever. Will Charlotte risk her heart for a man she knows she shouldn't trust? Or will their second chance end before it ever truly begins?

2018 • [ A CROOKED TALE, a phantom's whisper, watch it burn, feel it blister. ] • A forest. A hut on chicken's feet. A fence of blood and bone. Before she was Baba Yaga, she was just a girl. Fuelled by spite and hatred for the world around her, Yaga Izeva has always had two faces. A beautiful one, the tailor's girl and a perfect wife, and the other, far darker than anyone could've ever imagined. Because things like that didn't happen in their village - until they did. With the blood of her village on her hands and nowhere to turn to, Yaga runs to the open arms of the forest, where the water runs black and the trees are haunted by ghosts of the past. Power is a pretty thing - before it consumes you. Go to sleep, children. And watch out for Baba Yaga.

Evie Autumn, like almost every other nineteen year old was just your average, unassuming, everyday girl. She attended university, she had that one quirk that everyone thinks is weird (an obsession with Greek mythology, in case you were wondering) and she had to stop herself from repeatedly smacking her best friend daily for his naycare, partying ways. Basically, her life couldn't be anymore normal if she tried. But then her normal world is shattered when that same best friend is killed right before her very eyes, and a mysterious stranger approaches her and introduces himself as Hades, God of the Underworld. Hades offers Evie a deal; he'll let her best friend live if she agrees to return with him to the Underworld as his very own modern-day Persephone. Suddenly Evie's thrust into a world where gods are real and life after death is all too possible; and to top it all off, she makes a deal to live with the devil for six months in exchange for her best friend's life. Life couldn't get any less normal, right? HADES SERIES #1 [Ranked #28 in Teen Fiction on 20.05.16] [Hit 1 million on 18.10.17]
