Everyone warned me about the man next door. Scarred knuckles. Haunted eyes. A past wrapped in blood and secrets. Cassian Vale is fifteen years older, freshly out of prison, and so quiet the whole town pretends he doesn't exist. So, of course, I knocked on his door. I didn't expect him to open it. I didn't expect to see the sketch of me pinned to his wall. And I definitely didn't expect to want the monster everyone else was terrified of. But there are rules with Cassian. Rule One: Don't ask about the basement. Rule Two: Stay out of his past. Rule Three: If he tells you to run-run. I broke all three. Now I know his secrets. Now he knows mine. And the scariest part? I think I love him for the very things that should make me run.

She's heart-meltingly sweet. He's deliciously sinful. Greyson Decker is your typical jock; God in the bedroom, king on the field. His brooding glare and shredded body terrifies as much as it turns on, and that gets him as much attention with women as it does with NFL recruits. Synamie Blake is not your typical cheerleader. Forced to be hardened by her past, she is tough and smart; two things that don't get you far in the college social scene. When their worlds collide, Greyson becomes a protective friend who ups her social rank and pulls her into his world of parties, great friends, better teammates and something much, much dirtier. I mean, her name does rhyme with sin... Syn hated the idea of being under Greyson's daunting wing, especially right after escaping the claws of her past, but he is nothing like his bad boy reputation perceived. He rips her from her nightmares, she seeps into his soul, and they become so hooked, not even the entire span of a football field could keep their burning passion in check. But their path to becoming friends to lovers might be harsher than the fire between them. *** He looks irate, and for some reason, that makes me burst into hysterics. "Do you get enjoyment from my pain, you demon child?" That only makes me laugh harder. "You're a grumpy old man," I inform him. I'm grinning up at him, and I'm glad he has my arms pinned to my sides because I want to pull his lips into a smile, and right now he'd probably bite my fingers off if I did that. And then he says, with a dark glare and a deep scowl, the sweetest words I have ever heard. "Fine. If I have to go infertile for you to smile at me like that, then so be it." And that's when I knew, in this weird, hazy, drunken moment, that Greyson Decker was undoubtedly the best thing that has ever happened to me. *** Cover model: Chase Mattson

An age gap love story. A brokenhearted billionaire. A college girl. ***** "Nevaeh," Aiden whispers, "can I rest my head on your shoulder?" I nod, letting him rest his head on my shoulder. He closes his eyes. "Thank you." He sighs in contentment. "Heaven." "Heaven?" "It's your name spelled backward, isn't it?" ***** The moment I first saw Aiden Klein, the first thing that came up in my head was how perfect he was. A good hard working man who loves his family more than anything else, Aiden Klein has been the subject of the desire of many women.

Touch is forbidden for their skin. Aiden Klein cannot love a woman. Yet, I know that it's far from the truth. Aiden Klein can love a woman so fiercely, his love would break you. Because I've seen it once, accidentally. He's the broken hero. And I'm the villain in this story. ***** THE KLEINS SERIES BOOK #3 © Anya Jayvyn. All Rights Reserved.

He continues to stare as the young girl hums quietly, while keeping her eyes locked on the book in her hands. At the sound of his footsteps, she suddenly stops reading only to look up and let out a squeal, one that he found adorable. Her already rosy cheeks become even brighter. "Hello." He melts at the sound of her angelic voice and says his next words carefully, softly. "Hi sweetheart." She tilts her head to the side as he unknowingly stares at her with a certain longing. "Who are you?" "I'm Seth. What's your name?" He questions, taking a step into her room. She grins, causing two cute dimples to appear on her cheeks. "Daisy." ~ In which Seth Andrews, who is usually quiet and brooding, becomes captivated by his best friends little sister, Daisy Miller, who believes everyone has at least a little good in them.

• Elysian Leonidas • I was assigned to do a task. Sheild her from all the monsters lurking outside. It was a simple task. And I knew I would succeed but the moment she gazed at me with those warmth-filled eyes, the warmth I didn't deserve, I knew I was fucked up. • Farren Elizabeth Calathan • He was dark and scary, he was just here to protect me, nothing less, nothing more. He guarded me against all the harm and watched over me but I think my heart needed more guarding against his burning soul. After all, I was a moth and he was a flame and I couldn't help being attracted to him, only to burn in the end. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "There's a difference. If this continues, I will have to replace you." My blood boiled and I growled. "You take her away from me and I will forget we even share the same blood." His eyes narrowed further. "Are you forgetting your purpose here? She's your client, Elysian, nothing else." "She is my fucking wife! Don't call her my client ever again."
