One bullet turned my soulmate into a murderer, and my life into a bargaining chip. I chose the wrong man. Now the right one won't let me go. Julien was my original sin. A Made Man from my father's Cosa Nostra. Forbidden. Impossible. My everything. Until he drew his Glock and shattered the girl I used to be. The Stronzo left a blood debt that only I could pay. Then Max entered my life. A Cartel "Gentleman." He's refined, calculating, and far too interested in me. I'm just supposed to be his new Collateral. He shouldn't look at me like something more. Where Julien burns, Max controls. Where one made me feel like his forever, the other makes me feel inevitable. In my world, love isn't weakness. It's currency. And I'm the interest on a debt that can never be settled. I'm not the girl they think they're fighting over. I'm the price of their war. Ecstasy always comes with a cost. I just didn't know I'd be the one to pay it.

For the longest time, Vivian was abused, tortured, and used for many downright disgusting yet dark experiments by the hands of her father and his men, later to become HYDRA. As the Arctic Assassin, she's the second-best asset in HYDRA's History, right next to the Winter Soldier. But one day she is taken away from the base, escaping the men that were taking her as she tries to run from all she can, but what happens when two men find her chained up, will they save her, or can she even trust them? Can she trust the Avengers altogether? What would James say to all of this? Or will something cold and dark fester from inside her when she really doesn't know who or what she is??

A Literary Sci-Fi Romance Novel in the Works! She thinks he's dead. He thinks she's dead. They're both wrong. Christine and Nathan were enjoying a quiet evening in New Mexico when the sky tore open. Earth didn't end with a whimper... it ended with the moon shattering into a billion pieces. The Nexus, an ancient alien hive-mind, saved humanity at the last second... but the rescue was brutal. Bodies fused. Limbs lost. Survivors sorted like livestock into two separate domes a hundred miles apart. Christine wakes in the Medical Sector, surrounded by the mangled and dying, forced to rebuild humanity one broken body at a time. Nathan wakes in the Habitat Dome, tasked with building a new civilization from survivors who've lost everything. Neither knows the other survived. Both are building new lives, new families, new futures... while mourning the love they think is gone forever. But the Nexus is watching.
