The SECOND BOOK of Is it Series. But Ara- Ara was breaking. Not gently. Not quietly. She was coming apart in front of him, and the sight cut through him like a blade. Her knees buckled. Her magic cracked. Tremors ripped through her. A choking cough tore free, blood spilling past her lips. Her fingers twitched for air that wouldn't come. Darkness swallowed her vision. Nature demanded its price. And she-always the one who carried what no one else could-paid it alone. Until he moved. Silent. Deadly. Relentless. He caught her before the floor could. She fell into him with a shuddering breath-weightless, burning, breaking. Every inhale was a losing fight. His heart slammed. His control shattered. "No." The word hit the air like a command to fate itself. Panic-raw, ancient-surged up his spine. "Breathe." "Stay awake." "Don't leave me." "Not again." His grip tightened, desperate, the bond between them thrumming like a frantic heartbeat. Magic. Fear. Want. All tangled into one. Every instinct-demon, wolf, man, monster-rose to shield her, claim her, keep her. He lowered his head, breath brushing her temple, voice rough enough to bleed. "Ara... don't you dare fall." She sagged against him, breaths stuttering. His arms locked harder, as if the universe might try to tear her away. His dominance wrapped around her like fire. His arrogance collapsed into fear. Every truth stripped bare: She was his weakness. His want. His danger. His undoing. He dragged her closer, feeling each faint heartbeat slice into him. His breath shook against her skin. Everything inside him-instinct, power, soul-rose and wrapped around her, pulling her into the center of him, refusing to let go. Every thought. Every instinct. Every piece of him- coiled around her.

Is it a goodbye to pain... or a goodbye to everything she once knew? After everything Luna has survived, she returns not as the broken girl they once knew, but as a woman who understands her worth.

She is here to choose. Sequel to Rejected ; read it first to understand the full story.

She's been rejected. She's been beaten. She's been used. She's been made for a position of power. *** When Kristin Knight is rejected and sold at the hands of her mate, she spends two years in captivity, beaten and used. She keeps up with the time through a sky light window, watching the sun rise and fall, marking each new day without a rescue from the man that put her there. So, when given a fleeting moment to escape, she takes it and runs with the sole purpose of not being caught. Only to end up in Black River territory, the fastest growing pack in the nation, found bloody and freezing to death at the hands of Alpha Grayson Black's guards. And the last thing she expects to find is that unmistakable pull of the mate bond to an entirely new Alpha - one stronger than she's ever encountered before.

Book 2 of The Dark Knights Series Butcher - When she turns up at the clubhouse, looking for her sister Melanie..I fall in love with her instantly...and I think she's fallen hard too. So what will happen when she finds out what really happened to her sister...by my hand?

Is age really just nothing but a number? It depends on who you ask. Sayer Sayer Hayes was rocking the hell out of his adult life. At thirty-five, he'd given up on apartments and was finally a homeowner and was proud of it. He was also one of Silias County's best firefighters, and he was one of the best they had. With a great family, two annoying but loyal brothers, and a satisfying career, Sayer had it made. The man really had nothing to complain about. Monroe Monroe Stewart was kind of rocking the hell out of her adult life. Knocking on forty's door, she had her own home but that was a result of her divorce. As far as her career was concerned, her promotion to one of Silias County's building inspectors had come just in time to start the new phase of her life. Though she's had to adjust to a lot of changes, she was doing her best to welcome the new changes. When age is just a number... When Sayer overhears Monroe's ex-husband accuse her of still pining over him, Sayer steps in and lies his ass off, hoping Monroe will just go with it. Hoping that the hero role will win him some points, all he needs is to get his foot in the door to finally make Monroe Stewart his. When Monroe's ex-husband accuses her of still pining over him, she's too stunned by his audacity to stop Sayer Hayes from jumping into the mess of her dead marriage. Letting pride decide for her, she follows her sexy neighbor's lead, not suspecting that he has ulterior motives in mind. Between a crappy ex-husband, an emotional teenage daughter, a conniving co-worker, a matchmaking best friend, two idiot brothers, a station full of firefighters, a nosey neighbor, and a wedding-planning fireman whose determination rivals Stalin, Sayer and Monroe have their work cut out for them. NOTE: This book contains adult language, adult situations, explicit sexual encounters, and an out-of-control wedding planner.

One lesson I learned very early in life was to be cheerful, to be agreeable, to do as I was told and ask for nothing, and to never ever complain. Smile Maddie. Be happy Maddie. Don't make trouble and maybe they'll love you. I grew into an adult who took care of others and never expected that those I loved would take care of me in return. I gave and never asked, never expected, never demanded. Smile Maddie. Be happy Maddie. Don't make trouble and you'll find someone that will love you. And then one day, a Dragon walked into my workplace and turned my world upside down with a single wink. Having grown up watching his father treat his men like they were disposable, just meat bags to be fed into the grinder, Dragon was determined to be different when he became president of the Dragon's Inferno MC. He cares about his people. He takes care of them. He was upfront with me, taking care of his MC and those he considered to be his would always be his priority. And I agreed to that, I joined him in that mission, throwing myself into becoming the perfect old lady of the prez. Smile Maddie. Act happy Maddie. Take care of them and maybe they'll love you. Smile Maddie. Be happy Maddie. Don't complain and maybe he'll love you. I told myself I was independent. I was strong. And I didn't need my Dragon to take care of me. And I almost believed it. Almost. But now I'm watching him with her. I'm watching him comfort her. I'm watching him listen to her, support her, reassure her. I'm watching him take time from his day to check in with her. I'm watching him worry about her. I'm watching them become closer right in front of my eyes. I'm seeing every thoughtful gesture he does for her. And me? I'm not happy. I'm not smiling. I'm done being agreeable. Fuck not causing trouble. I'm about to set my Dragon's world on fire. And then I'm walking away. She can have him. For the first time in my life, I'm choosing myself.

(BOOK 1 Of the QUEENS OF CHAOS SERIES) Isa Valen doesn't believe in restraint. Two weeks ago, she did champagne, a sinfully accented stranger, and a night so consuming she ran before sunrise. She doesn't remember his face. She doesn't remember his name. But her body remembers the way he made it burn. When her sister runs to New York, Isa follows without hesitation. New city. New job. New distractions. Then she meets her boss. Erik Orlov. Billionaire. Bratva Don. A devastatingly gorgeous tattooed man built from control and violence wrapped in tailored suits. The first time he looks at her, something tightens in her chest. The first time he steps close, her pulse betrays her. She doesn't recognize him. He recognizes the curve of her mouth. The sound she made when he touched her. The way she ran. The night she can't remember is the one he hasn't stopped replaying. Now she works beneath him - in his office, in his space, in his world. Every glance lasts too long. Every accidental touch feels deliberate. Every breath between them feels charged. And Erik Orlov does not chase. He claims. Enemies circle his empire. Loyalty fractures. Power shifts. But none of it unsettles him like the woman sitting across his desk, pretending she doesn't feel it too. Until two pink lines appear. Because the only thing more dangerous than their chemistry... Is the secret growing between them. And this time, he won't let her run.

After many years of trying...and the pain of loss, I was finally pregnant. The night my sister got married, my husband drunkenly confessed to me that he had been in love with my sister for two years. I divorced him without talking to him. Now, two years later, I'm ready to listen.

The girl who was naive enough to ever want him. Now, he's back on campus, clinging to his last chance. Mandatory therapy, or he doesn't graduate. And I'm the unlucky intern assigned to his case. He's violent. Dangerous. A walking reminder of all the damage done to my family. I'm supposed to help him manage his anger. But instead, I keep wanting to see what happens when he loses control. They say healing is supposed to be messy. But they never said it could feel like this. Hate was supposed to be easy. But it never is. Some scars you can't see. And there are some scars that you just can't stop touching. - Updates every Friday!
