Blind since childhood, Roisin Wade has learned to trust what others ignore - the shift in someone's breathing, the weight of their silence, the way fear has a smell. So when she hears something on her way home one night, she knows - not what it was or who - just that it was wrong, and that whoever was responsible saw her there. August Rylov is dangerously charming, his voice is steady, even if his presence is not. Roisin knows better than to trust what feels safe, but he's persistent, and she's lonely. What Roisin doesn't know is that August isn't just courting her - he's hunting her because she's a loose end he can't afford to leave untied.

When Ayla Moore buries her husband, she thinks she's already survived the worst. Five years in the shadows of the Berisha name have taught her how to move unnoticed, how vengeance is paid for in blood, and how to love a man she once hated. And while her marriage to Roman was never simple - it was hers. But now he was gone. His death should have been her way out. A chance to take her son and disappear into a simpler life. But the House of Berisha doesn't release its heirs so easily, so when the truth of her son's birthright comes to light, Ayla learns that her freedom was never hers to take. Now she faces an impossible choice: either marry her brother-in-law and stay bound to a world built on blood and loyalty - or lose the one thing she has left worth fighting for.

Eliana is running from her past, and it's chasing her with a vengeance. When her loved ones are murdered before her by a cruel family, Eliana escapes to America and hasn't stopped running for six years. Now, they are getting closer. A dark twist of fate means that ancient bonds are revealed and Eliana is forced to question everything that she knows. *Excerpt* This time, I only made it about twenty feet before a large force slammed into me from behind, a tight hand wrapping around my mouth preventing me from crying out. Desperately, I reached my hands up to tug at the arm around my face as a second powerful arm snaked around my stomach, keeping me flush to the warm chest behind me and stopping me from falling from the impact of his collision. "Enough!" He growled close to my ear. Despite the strong arms and seething tone keeping me contained, I used all my might to struggle, squirming frantically to try and loosen his grip. My shouted pleas were muffled uselessly by the hand over my mouth and warm tears burned against my cold face as they streamed from my ballooned eyes. My legs kicked helplessly, and I must have got a hit in because I heard him curse under his breath before he easily but surprisingly gently, kicked my legs from under me and forced me into a kneeling position on the forest floor, lowering himself afterwards to match my stance. With this new position he could release the arm around my waist without allowing me any wriggle room and I felt him reach behind him to grab something. Shit. My breathing picked up and my cries increased in volume. Was he just going to kill me like this? In the middle of nowhere? Trigger Warning: This is a dark romance. Themes of abuse, death, violence and all around some pretty toxic behaviour.
