COMPLETED: 24/02/17 *Warning: LABELLED MATURE. Due to sexual content and graphic language, this book is recommended for readers 17+ in age* Rising boxer Jaxon Cage is known to be a fighter on and off the ring. He's a man on a mission; redeeming the death of his little brother, who was on his way to become a boxing star. Jaxon holds himself accountable for his brother's death and now takes his place in the ring to continue his dream. Turns out, he's a natural. With a 5-year-old daughter he's raising, he needs the money now more than ever and is steadily making his way to the top with the help of his Coach. There's just one problem - he's taken a keen interest in his Coach's daughter and can't afford the distraction or any further burdens. But resisting her and focusing on his torturous reality is easier said than done. Quiet and shy Emily Resnick leads a simple life as an elementary teacher. Or she did, until her father took the talented and outrageously handsome Jaxon Cage under his wing. Now, she finds herself consumed by the dark and brooding but secretly soft-hearted man. She was a goner for him the second she saw the devotion he gave to his daughter and new-found job. As she discovers the many layers to this difficult man, she can't help but want to ease his burdens and carry his demons. She can't help but want him, period. Jaxon is intent on pushing her away, though, and Emily must decide if she should run from the inevitable destruction of her heart while she can, or fight for the fighter.

For years, Luka believed his brothers were the reason his life always felt one wrong move away from blowing up. They were the danger. The threat. The shadow hanging over him. Then the secrets start spilling out, and the story flips. His brothers aren't the disaster he's been bracing for. They're the ones trying to keep it from swallowing him whole. The same men he's spent years fearing are suddenly the ones stepping in front of the worst of it, making choices that could cost them their lives just to keep him standing. It messes with Luka's head, because monsters aren't supposed to protect you. Trust doesn't come easy, but neither does survival. Somewhere between the lies, the secrets, and the close calls, Luka stops just trusting them. He starts counting on them. And in the process, he learns something that scares him almost as much as the truth about his family: He's more capable than he ever let himself believe. Love to hear from all the readers so please leave a comment. :) MxF relationships and family focused

Two months after Leo Vassallo wakes from the coma that should've killed him, everyone decides he's fine. His family smiles again. His empire keeps moving. The world keeps demanding he be the man he used to be. But Leo's mind is still trapped in places no one can see. And the only person who knows how to pull him back is the one person he should never touch again. Vivienne Kosta. Vivienne is danger dressed as beauty. A Kosta princess with blood on her hands, a temper sharp enough to start wars and a heart that only knows how to survive by claiming what she loves. She doesn't do distance. She doesn't do "healthy." She doesn't love softly. She loves like she's surviving. With Leo, it's always a choice between drowning... or burning. Leo should run. Instead he keeps coming back. Because with her, the silence in his head finally quiets... even if the price is obsession. As secrets begin to crack and old ghosts claw their way to the surface, Leo and Vivienne are forced to face the truth they've been burying for years: Some love doesn't heal you. Some love haunts you. And some love is the only thing keeping you alive. In a world built on leverage, family feuds, and secrets that don't stay buried, their love isn't safe or simple. It's a promise made with shaking hands. A refuge with teeth. A bond forged in trauma and sealed in violent possession. (Book two in the interconnected series)

Three years ago, Freya Whitmore watched Cole Vassallo kill a man. Sirens followed. Chaos followed. And in the space of a heartbeat, the boy she loved decided she'd betrayed him. Cole disappeared, sent away by his father while Freya was left with the memory, the damage, and a truth she never got to say out loud. Now he's back, enrolling at her university before he takes over his family's criminal empire. Freya wants distance. Cole wants control. He acts like she's the enemy, like she's a mistake he can't afford, yet he's everywhere: watching, interfering, stepping in whenever anyone gets too close. Freya despises his world. Cole swears she has no place in it. So why does he keep pulling her into his orbit... and calling it protection? Because people are starting to notice what Cole Vassallo can't hide and when they realize Freya is the one thing that gets a reaction, they don't come for him. They come for her. And Cole has to decide what's stronger: his need for revenge... or his cruel devotion.

James Hanson has never exactly been the high school quarterback stereotype. He's one of the top recruits in the country, but he's always been too shy, too sensitive, and (secretly) too gay to really fit the mold. Nobody knows about James's secret boyfriend, Rafa, but Rafa knows James's biggest secret: that his rich, powerful father has a mean streak. In October of his senior year, things come to a head. His football coach is suspicious. His friends are worried. Rafa's begging him to report his father. And his father is becoming increasingly unstable. And James doesn't know how much longer he can take it. * * * Updates whenever I get around to it. Cross-posting on AO3 as of February 26.

Jodee has been living alone with her older brother and one of his friends for most of her life. The only problem is that Ace Chambers - her brother - is one of the most feared and dangerous men in the city. Ace is rarely home from work and when he is he doesn't say much nor engage in her life. His sister, however, is the opposite - Jodee is a shy and reserved 14-year-old-girl; always wanting to be out of the spotlight that her brother's mysterious life puts on her. She gets good grades, has a small friend group, and is content with her own company. Although the Chambers siblings are polar opposites they are very close. Jodee understands Ace like no other and Ace always has Jodee and her best interest at the top of his priorities. So what happens when her quiet - but different - life is turned up-side-down? Will Ace be able to protect her and save her innocence? Can Jodee handle this change? And most of all, will their little family stick together.
