His eyes sharpen. "A girl who isn't even really his friend." Ilan shrugs. Casual. Arrogant. "I'm just selfless, I guess." A challenge. Ilan steps closer. They're standing face to face now. I clutch my laptop tighter against my chest. "She doesn't need your selflessness," Ryan says. "She has me." Ilan tilts his head slightly. "Seems like you're not very good at your job."

He thinks I'm a tool to be used, a bride to be displayed, a Fraga to be broken. He thinks the ring on my finger means I belong to him. He's wrong. Every cage has a weakness. Every monster has a wound that won't heal. And I've spent enough time in the dark to know exactly where to sink the knife. When I'm done, he won't just lose me. He'll lose everything. [Book 1 in the Sins of the City series.]

Mae Rivers was sent to Brackenridge Academy to start over. To be quiet. To behave. To forget. But in a place where appearances matter more than truth, silence doesn't protect you. Especially not from someone like Ash Carter. He's everything she should stay away from - reckless, charming, and far too observant. He sees her when no one else does. And that might be the most dangerous thing of all. Because some stories aren't meant to be told. And some truths were never meant to stay buried.

Ayana Zuri does not lose. Not because she's lucky or untouchable. But because she learned a long time ago that if she worked harder than everyone else, if she thought faster, if she stayed colder, then nobody would ever get close enough to hurt her again. Five years ago, she decided she was done being the girl who trusted too easily. Done with distractions. Done with relationships. Done with confusing attention for love. So she rebuilt herself into someone unreachable. Law school. Discipline. Structure. No drinking. No dating. No unnecessary attachments. Success became the only thing she allowed herself to want. And it worked. Now she's exactly where she's supposed to be-top of her class, impossible to ignore, and now standing in a courtroom for the first case of her career. Her first chance to prove she belongs. It should've been a simple win. And yet... unbeknownst to her, she's walked into the circle of a man who has never once trusted chance to deliver what he could take for himself. _______ Some men are born powerful. Van Seo de Montclair was born inevitable. Raised between Monaco's old stone buildings, private terraces, and conversations held behind closed doors, Van grew up in a world where influence never announced itself-it simply reigned. From an early age, he learned that attention was expensive and mistakes were remembered. He grew into the kind of man who understood outcomes before conversations happened. A strategist by instinct. So why... No... how did this lawyer with a sharp mouth and an inability to leave things unfinished manage to force a result he never intended? To Van, people had always been pawns-pieces moved by desire, fear, ambition, and timing. And so was she. Until she wasn't. Until she looked at a finished game and chose not to play by his rules. And now... until he gets what he wants, he'll make sure she has no choice but to look back. Prosecutor X Predator. May the hunt begin.

Now she isn't here for forgiveness. She's here for revenge. Because this time... the girl they ruined, is the woman who will destroy them.

"You don't tell me what to do." I grit as she pins my hands above me, her body pressed against mine. "Angel, look at how you tremble beneath me, feel how your heart races. Don't lie to me, hm? Tell me, does he make you feel like this?" She chuckles, her expression dark. "You're delusional." I can't help the moan that escapes me as her fingers drift lower. "Oh? Tonight I'll show you how 𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘦 you are. Tonight I'll show you what happens when you let another 𝘵𝘰𝘶𝘤𝘩 you." Her lips meet mine, and I forget how to breathe. ******************************************************* Mia Quinn, a 20-year-old woman who has recently joined university with a past no one should discover, she intends to remain alone, private and to finally leave.

I took a bite of the cake. It was so good I almost moaned. Across from me, Xander watched with an intensity that made my skin tingle, like a starved predator eyeing a prize. I frowned. "Don't you want to try it?" I asked, popping a cherry into my mouth. His gray eyes darkened. "Can I?" "Of course you can. You make it sound like I'm starving yo-" My words died in my throat as his lips crashed against mine. Suddenly, I understood. The cake wasn't the prize he was hungry for. I was. ...
