an·dro·pho·bia | \ ˌan-drə-ˈfō-bē-ə noun : an abnormal dread of men : repugnance to the male sex Thea is the definition of sweetness. Whether it be stopping to talk to a homeless person in the streets or volunteering overtime at her local charity shop, she feels the need to give and not take. Although that comes with disadvantages of its own, the effects of a strange phobia of hers only make her life more difficult: her growing fear of men. And when she meets the most terrifying of them all, she is forced to ultimately confront her fear. In the form of a murderous member of the mafia by the name of Synn, that same uncontrollable terror that she experiences in the presence of a man only sparks an interest in him. But unbeknownst to Synn, a man who revels at the tremor of his enemies, he cannot figure out why her wide, teary eyes do not give him the same pleasure. Why does that same terror-stricken look on Thea's face only make his heart clench with pain instead of content? #1 in Hot #1 in Fear #1 in Scared #1 in Sweet #1 in Kind #3 in Cute #5 in Love Cover done by @kimtherespeopledying

It starts with a contract, not a love story. After a mission in Spain goes wrong, Aleksandra Mikhailovna Dragunova, Moscow's Bratva princess, is ordered to marry the lion of Sicily to stop a war. One wrong deal. One betrayal. One forced marriage between two empires that should never mix... and a slow-burn obsession that could burn them all. Hunted by her own world and driven out of every safe house and city, Aleksandra has one way left to survive: align with the Spadaro family. A ring she never wanted becomes her only shield. Domiziano Massimo Spadaro, Underboss and the heir to the Black Lion's crown, was raised on blood oaths and loyalty. His loyalty is the kind that makes men fear his name more than the law. When the contract lands on his desk, he doesn't see a bride; he sees a liability wrapped in strategy. A Dragunov. A woman he is ordered to claim, never trust. Aleksandra led men who killed at her word and bled at her feet. Her rules were simple: freedom over fairy tales. Power over promises. Control over love. They walk into the marriage as enemies, bound by ink, not choice. They promise themselves one thing: do not fall. ~~~ "He was supposed to be my protection. Not my addiction." ~ Aleksandra Dragunova

Seventeen year-old Jade Andrews never wanted to move to Fairview - a quiet, gray town where the houses all look the same and secrets hang heavier than the rain. With her abusive, alcoholic stepfather as the only person waiting for her at home, Jade learns early that safety doesn't exist - not in her house, and not in her own skin. She's small, just 4'10", with long brown hair and deep brown eyes that have learned how to avoid attention. But on her first day at Fairview High, attention finds her anyway. It starts with laughter. A shoulder check. A whispered insult. Then comes Hunter Lockwood - the school's rugby captain. Six foot five, blonde hair, aqua-blue eyes, and a calm, predatory confidence that makes everyone else follow his lead. Along with his friends - Noah, Xavier, Zach, and Luke - Hunter rules the halls with charm and cruelty in equal measure. To them, Jade is just a new game. To Jade, they're the reason she starts walking faster every morning and sleeping less every night. But beneath Fairview's perfect surface, something darker is brewing - and the line between victim and villain begins to blur. Because sometimes, the quietest person in the room is the one who finally breaks.
