SOPHIE BROOKS: Party, hook-up, hangover, repeat. I don't do rules, responsibility, or monogamy. So when the chance to sleep with the hottest Olympian swimmer in the country presents itself, you can be damn sure I take it. And sneak out before he wakes up the next morning. This has been my way of life for years, and nothing has challenged it. Until him. Charming, ambitious, he draws me in and then refuses to leave. He's persistent, annoyingly so, keeps coming back like a damn boomerang. And he's getting a little too close, asking a little too many questions. Questions I refuse to answer. Some things are just supposed to stay forgotten. JAYDEN SENNELS: Swimming is my life. I basically breathe water. Growing up the way I did, going to the Olympics seemed like an unattainable dream. But here I am, just fresh out of my first games, and I messed up. Big time. Everything was riding on me doing well. Failing wasn't an option. Now I have one last year at college to redeem myself. Enter her. Tall, confident, she seduces me, refuses to tell me her name, and has me waking up to an empty bed. She is an enigma, and there is most definitely something she's not telling me. From the moment I saw her, I knew. This woman is trouble in high heels. She will destroy me. And I am going to love it. 🏊‍♂️ WARNING: Strong language and sexual content. This is a book about when the past comes back to haunt you. Book #1 in the Medley series

Warning: This book is an alternative view of my book ITAAS. It can NOT be read as a stand alone unless you don't mind being extremely confused. ------------------------ Then she decided to torture me by pulling her bottom lip in between her teeth. I hated it when she did that. It made it impossible to think of anything else but kissing her. And just like that my mind was away, and I shamelessly thought of what it would feel like to kiss her. What her lips would taste like, where my hands would go. Where my mind would go.. My self-control was always hanging by a small tiny piece of thread whenever I was with her. If she had no lasting memory, I would pull her into my lap and kiss the living daylights out of her. Right here, right now. But I couldn't. -------------------------- Curious about Ethan Blythe? Wondering what perverted/whipped thoughts were going through his mind at each and every conversation. Then no fear, read along to find what Ethan was REALLY thinking. -------------------------------- This is not a formal book and has pretty much the same story line as ICTAAS. This means there will be no upload schedule and it will be uploaded whenever I have time/am bored. So, basically expect slow updates. If you're curious abut what happens next, you can just read the other book lol. ----------------------------- THIS BOOK IS COPY-RIGHT PROTECTED! DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES TAKE THIS WORK AND PUT IT ANYWHERE ELSE. I WILL FIND YOU AND YOU WILL PAY THE CONSEQUENCES.

BOOK 4 COMPLETE Kaden is the Beta of Blackstone pack, and while fated mates are part of his world, he never gave much thought to finding his own, or at least he didn't used to. Kaden goes off on a long run to get away and feels a strange, indescribable pull. As he moves farther into California, he finds his mate, but what should be a happy moment is shrouded in darkness as he ventures into her world- a world of darkness and danger unlike anything he's ever experienced. Violet's been labeled a genius and prodigy ever since she was a child, and she hates every moment of it. After escaping from the limelight, she lives in a world of secrets and fear- fear of being found, of being trapped like she was before. She keeps everyone else at a distance and tries to drown the grief and the pain of her past and present with self-medication until the day she can finally get the justice she's worked so hard for. Promises she made years ago stay fresh in her mind and she does everything she can to keep them, even if it means crossing the boundary of legality. Her trauma-engrained mind won't let Kaden get close to her without precautions but as she looks into his life, she finds things that aren't adding up and make her question what he's hiding. "Violet?" That single touch made the rest of me feel more alive than I had in years. Under his hand, under the clothes, against my skin, was a scar that contributed to me turning off all feeling, and yet one touch from him and it was all coming back, like I was learning how to be alive again. Maybe not even again, maybe I was learning for the first time. My hands had a mind of their own as they slid down his chest. He inhaled sharply, his hand tightening on my hip. I bit on my lip, knowing this was stupid, but I couldn't stop. "Seven minutes in heaven it is," I said, sliding my hands down his torso, the muscles of his abs tightening under my touch. "But no kissing." "I don't need to kiss you to be in heaven with you."
