Octavia. That's the name the world knows her by. One word. One name. At seventeen, she was a girl who had her spotlight when she was whisked away to co-star in what would be an award-winning movie. From that moment on, she had never strayed away. Now, at 24, Octavia is a star and has found herself in multiple productions. As she finds herself in Milan, Italy for a new and upcoming movie she is cast in, she crosses paths with Caleb Henderson, the famous writer known to the world as Romero Henderson. However, as the production of the movie begins, Octavia immediately decides her opinion of Caleb. She doesn't like him. She borderline hates him. She hates how annoying he is. She hates the stupid, random topics he always brings up. She hates how he almost always cuts her off whenever she's speaking. She hates how attracted she is to him. I exhaled, trying to rub the tiredness off my face with my hands. I looked down at his shadow on the ground to him. His face looked as if it was glowing from the sun, his eyes narrowing from the brightness. I let my gaze trail from the exposed tattoos on his arms to the stupid smile that was still on his face. "Why are you like this?" For a moment he didn't answer me. He simply glanced at me, knowing that I meant more in the five words. The smile on his face went from pure amusement to bitterness. It was something I had never seen before and I didn't think I wanted to see him smile like that ever again. He pivoted his head towards the sun once again and in a serious tone asked, "Would you have me any other way?" Cover: @EmSlough_

Ezekiel Delgado would deem himself as broken. With light only just beginning to shine at the end of what had been an extremely long tunnel, he knew his mental health issues were always there- threatening to rise to the surface yet again. Zeke didn't view himself as worthy of anything to do with happiness, which is why he'd been shoving his crush on his boss and sister-in-law's best friend, to the very back of his mind. Well, trying to. Alexius Reynolds was the embodiment of sunshine. Never seen without a blinding smile on his face, or a book in his hands, he radiated happiness wherever he went, on whoever he stumbled upon. His one and only employee was no exception to that. Haunted by his own past, he and Zeke find a mutual understanding for each other...but can it blossom into anything more? *War must be read before this book*

Marco Delgado was a lot of things - cold, charming, merciless...and most definitely not a man who falls in love. His life revolved around keeping his brothers happy, himself alive, and eliminating threats. Aniyah Wright knew what she wanted in life- or at least she thought she did. Due to be forced into an arranged marriage and kiss her freedom goodbye, her control was gradually slipping through her fingers. Until Marco entered her life. With his calculating glare and terrifying smile, Marco throws Aniyah's life into jeopardy in an instant and vice versa- just how does he give her a chance at keeping her freedom? And can Aniyah be the one to send the weight of Marco's walls crumbling? *CAN BE READ AS A STANDALONE BUT NOT RECOMMENDED*

Abandoned by the man he barely called his father and left to look after his five younger brothers in the space of 24 hours, his life had taken a sharp turn towards rock bottom. Forced to mature even more than he had already Zane stepped up to become everything his father wasn't: caring, protective, patient - present. Throw in the messy life of crime his father had left behind and yeah...recipe for disaster. Zane must now juggle being a parent and big brother, the people out to get him and his family, as well as his attraction towards a certain boy from a cafe, nothing gracious about all of that... *** *PREQUEL TO ISABELLA*

The Delgado siblings have had their lives turned around; with the inevitable appearance of a familiar face finally upon them and a whole new risk of danger, it appears there is only one way out. Eliminate the threat. It's easier said than done though - Santiago Delgado made his sons who they are today, he could play them at their own game with his eyes closed: and that is his plan exactly.

Or will the one man she sees as a father figure be able to save his family before it's too late? *SEQUEL TO ISABELLA - CANNOT BE READ AS A STAND-ALONE*
