Lily was just your typical 16-year-old not-so-innocent girl until her mother passed away and left her with the only person she could consider a father figure in her life, her brother Luke. She had never pinned him as the fatherly type, though he did act as the protective man in her life throughout the years when their own biological father had left them to fend for themselves. With Luke just graduated from college at the age of 25 and having to act as a legal guardian for his hormonal younger sister, will he be able to create a stable home for them both and keep her from being taken into custody of the government? Or will things spiral out of control when a hazy drunken night sends Lily into even more trouble than she can handle? (WARNING: This book contains heavy profanity and mature scenes.

Astra knows the effect she has on men. She likes the attention, she enjoys being craved. It reminds her that she's alive, and presents her with the illusion of power. Astra has turned into a seductress, a nymphet of sorts, a young girl with a carnal appetite hard to satisfy. Astra is a girl with a dark secret, which she manages to numb with sex, drugs and alcohol. That is until Lord Charles Lennox, the mysterious, panty-droppingly-gorgeous twenty-something year old walks into Kensington Manor, and manages to get under her tough skin.
