W H I T E O U T ❅ The contract was simple: Two weeks. Two hundred grand. Don't fall in love. For 𝑱𝒐𝒆𝒍𝒍𝒆 π‘©π’‚π’‘π’•π’Šπ’”π’•π’†, it's a desperate bid to survive her debt. For π‘―π’‚π’…π’“π’Šπ’‚π’ π‘Ίπ’Šπ’π’„π’π’‚π’Šπ’“, the cold heir to a billion-dollar empire, it's just business. Play the adoring girlfriend for his family's winter retreat, take the money, and leave. Then a blizzard hits. Stranded entirely alone in a remote mountain estate, the icy boundaries between them melt into a bruising, suffocating heat. But when the snow clears and the contract expires, Joelle quickly learns a terrifying truth: Hadrian Sinclair doesn't let go of what's his. The phone lines are cut. The snowplow is sabotaged. The doors are locked. The blizzard is over, but Joelle's nightmare is just beginning. Because the only thing more dangerous than a man with a frozen heart, is the monster that wakes up when it thaws. ❅ "The contract has expired, Hadrian. The roads are clear. Let me go." His pale eyes dropped to my lips, his thumb tracing the pulse racing at my throat. "What roads, Joelle? It's still snowing. We're snowed in. We'll be snowed in forever."

Velnyre City was never meant for people like them. Kaein Blackthorn was born into it. Legacy, power, a name that carries weight in a world ruled by empires, scandals, and bloodlines older than the city itself. Yumi Takahashi was not. She was invisible. A barista in a city that only notices you when you matter... and she doesn't. Their worlds were never supposed to collide. But plans mean nothing when heartbreak gets involved. Because Kaein Blackthorn was never chosen. Not when it mattered. Not by the one person he would've burned the world for. And Yumi? She was never seen. Not until him. What started as nothing became something neither of them expected, something neither of them can afford. Because in Velnyre, it's never just moving on. It's scandal. It's consequence. It's choosing someone when the world expects you to choose differently. This isn't a fairytale. Because in this city? Even broken hearts come with a price.

Some flames don't die. They come back hungrier. The night Aurora Bellini disappeared, everything burned. The Vitti family was left bleeding - betrayed by the girl they sheltered, fractured by a love that never should have existed. Trust turned to ash. Loyalty became a liability. And for Angelo Vitti, survival came at a cost far worse than death. He should hate her. And he does. But hatred doesn't erase the memory of her smile. Or the way she softened his world without trying. Or the quiet, devastating hope that the girl he loved wasn't a lie - just a casualty. Angelo buries it. Locks it away. Pretends he's finished. War demands focus, not ghosts. Yet even as blood spills and alliances rot from the inside out, her name still burns beneath his ribs - a weakness he despises and cannot fully extinguish. Back in Russia, Alexandria Serra-Barinov steps into the life that shaped her. A world of violence, loyalty, and fire - where power is claimed, not given, and love does not ask you to be smaller. She stands among those who know her darkness and do not flinch. Those who see her clearly. And she does not break. Whatever softness that once existed is buried deep beneath resolve and rage. Alexandria does not hesitate. She does not look back. She has more to burn. More to ruin. And she will finish what she started. As blood spills across borders and old alliances rot from within, everyone is forced to choose what they're willing to lose. Their power. Their family. Their heart. Because betrayal is never the end of a story. It is the moment everything else begins to bleed. Because betrayal never comes alone. It brings war. It brings ruin. And it always demands payment. Betrayal doesn't end a story. It rewrites it. And in a world built on fire and blood, no one escapes unscathed. And some flames aren't meant to be extinguished - they're meant to burn the world down. "When Everything Burns" is the second book in the "Burned" Series, and cannot be read as a standalone.

Some flames burn quietly... until they don't. Aurora Bellini is the picture of innocence. Quiet. Kind. A law student with a soft heart and a tragic past. When a violent attack threatens her safety, she's placed under the protection of the Vitti family - Italy's most feared crime syndicate. More specifically, under the cold, watchful eye of their heir: Angelo Vitti. Angelo doesn't want her there. Too sweet. Too soft. Too breakable. But there's something about her that unsettles him. Her gentle smile, her quiet strength - it seeps past the walls he's spent years building. He tells himself she doesn't belong in his world. He tells himself to stay away. But he watches her anyway. Protects her anyway. And slowly, against his better judgment - he starts to burn for her. With war simmering between the Italian and Russian mafias, every secret is dangerous. Every glance, every touch, every whisper in the dark... it all matters. Because nothing is ever what it seems. And sometimes the softest things burn the most.

I would marry the devil himself it meant that I could see my mother smile again. *Damien They tell me having an eidetic memory is a gift, but it is nothing short of a curse when every single painful detail of my life has been seared into my brain forever. Sure, my mind has helped me build an empire worth billions from nothing, but the demons still haunt me, caging me within shadows I could never escape. Until I meet her. She is my angel, my saving grace, and I will do anything to keep her. Even if I have to go against everything I stand for and marry her.

She's a wild, free spirit who sees the good in everyone, and he's the hardened, bad-tempered loner who wants nothing to do with her-yet no matter how hard he tries to push her away, she's the one temptation he can't escape. *** He's never met someone with such a bubbly personality. Not to mention the wildness and odd phrases she says every five minutes. He hates it. He hates how he can't stay away from it. He hates what she does to him; it's not like him to chase after some girl. She gets under his skin like no other. She's never met someone with such a bad attitude. He's ill-mannered and menacing. The glare never seems to leave his face. Considering it all, she can't help but feel the attraction toward him. Dangerous attraction toward a seemingly dangerous man. Maybe it's the tattoos on his arm that gets her attention. Or maybe it's because she can tell there's hope for good under his rough exterior. And she's about to find it, whether he likes it or not. It's no secret that the two of them are complete and total opposites. *** "You like being called Sugar, don't you?" I tease, placing my toothbrush back after finishing. He does the same and gives me a side-eyed scowl. He grips my chin harshly and kisses me. My body temperature raises a good ten degrees and my right leg goes all wiggly. He pulls away. "You like it when I kiss you, don't you?" He teases the same way I did to him and I'm left blubbering. "I think both of our questions are rhetorical," I lower my voice up at him. His lip curls up into a smirk. *** #1 in Young Adult #9 in Badboy #1 in Cold #3 in Goodgirl #1 in Sweetheart #14 in Love *** *Warning* This story contains mature themes (language, scenes)

What else could explain his antisocial behavior, creepily minimalistic apartment, and that inhumanly emotionless demeanor? Not to mention the bloody body parts that have started showing up. It's too bad she's not scared of him. Or his unveiled threats on her life. But an emotionally scarred gangster on the run -- riding the brink of insanity and followed by a host of trouble -- is a lot more than she could've bargained for. πŒπ€π’π’πˆπŒπŽ π‘πŽπŒπ€ππŽ is beyond redemption. Capo of the Romano crime family, the sociopathic Prince of Chicago, hell wrapped in a designer suit. He exemplifies cold precision and perfect control. His job has always come easily to him for the very same reason that his name is feared widely: he's incapable of emotion. But something horrifying and sinister is beginning to happen to him. And it turns out that pesky slipping sanity is the least of his concerns. Because his new neighbor is a ray-of-sunshine wildcard dipped in beauty like he's never seen, and she won't leave him alone. Worse, he can't decide if he should kill or protect her. Massimo doesn't count on Vivienne being the first person to look at him like he's human. Or demons from his past coming back to haunt him. Much less a new threat looming on the horizon. Or love. Especially not that. β™› Deviant Prince is a slow burn, enemies to lovers, dark mafia romance. WARNING: this story gets very dark. You must check the CW in the intro. [ Book 2 in the Romano Brotherhood Series | COMPLETED βœ” ]

I'll make you scream my name until your throat is raw, and I'll make sure every man who's ever looked at you knows that you are the prize they'll never get to touch. You want to run? Run. You want to fight? Fight. But every time you push me, I'm just going to push back harder until you're begging me to take control. I don't give a fuck about the laws of this university or the rules of your pathetic little life. You're mine, and I'm going to ruin you until you can't remember what it's like to belong to anyone else." - Lucius Whitcroft ____ To the Elite of Ardencrest, Lucius Whitcroft is the Rogue Prince.

To Skye, he is just an arrogant, wealthy prick who needs to be taken down a peg. She is an untouchable scholarship student who learned how to survive by being invisible and refusing to let anyone tie her down. She has absolutely no idea she just challenged a man who is addicted to the thrill of breaking things. Lucius is a monster raised on adrenaline.

He uses his chaotic, crude games to try and force a reaction, expecting her to crumble under his obsession. But Skye does not break. She is the livewire to his explosion. And she is quietly holding a ledger that could see his entire blood-soaked family empire hanged. He isn't ruining her life. She is the only thing keeping him from tearing his own soul apart.
