Arcelia is a simple and sweet girl with a loving family and a supportive best friend. Her involvement with her married boyfriend changes her life for the worst. She is kidnapped, tortured and accused of a murder she knows nothing about. Her life becomes a living hell with no chance of escape. But what happens when she falls in love with her captor. Can their love survive the torture and their past or will the truth break them apart?

I never stood a chance. Not when Areston De L'Aquila set his sights on me. He's more than just a predator cloaked in Brioni-he is the abyss. Cold, calculated, and deadly in every way that matters. But the moment our eyes lock, it's over. I should run, I know I should. But there's something in him that calls to the darkest parts of me, the ones I've kept hidden, even from myself. He's a storm I can't outrun. Dangerous. Alluring. A perfect nightmare wrapped in a sinfully tempting package. He doesn't just see me. He consumes me and peels back my layers until all that's left is the raw truth neither of us is prepared to face. We're drawn together by an invisible force-our scars, our secrets, our shared thirst for control. But with Areston, it's a fine line between passion and destruction. And once you step over it, there's no going back. You only get stuck deeper and deeper in his abyss to the point where there's nothing left in you.

*Mature Content* "You're mine," he growls, his grip on me tightening. "And I always get what I want." +++ One day, the Immortal Sin named Cian admitted himself into a mental care facility.

But it's a reality she can't escape from, as she's tied to him in ways she couldn't have ever predicted.

She was the favored daughter of a medieval lord. He was a wealthy prince, a girl's dream. No one thought he would ever visit her father's little kingdom. But he did. That's when the excitement began. In quieter times, when the moon was full, her thoughts sometimes went to another. Though beneath her in rank, there was something in his eyes when he looked at her. . . She should have paid him no mind. There is no way she could have known what was coming.

NOW AVAILABLE ON AMAZON!!! 1st book in the Sternato Series (now called Captivation by Kate Taylor) It's a tale as old as time: a daughter paying for her father's sins. Mia Santoro has spent years distancing herself from her father's world-carving out a quiet life and atoning for the blood on her family's hands. But the mafia never really lets go. When her father is caught embezzling from the family, Mia is taken as collateral-dragged into the world of blood and betrayal she's spent her whole life avoiding. All she has is her unshakable compassion and a fierce determination to protect the people she loves. But nothing could prepare her for him-the man who pulled her into this life. Logan Sternato doesn't believe in mercy. He was raised to see love as a liability, emotion as weakness, and loyalty as a price paid in blood. When he takes Mia, he expects fear. Compliance. Obedience. Instead, he finds softness that disarms him-a quiet strength that unsettles him more than violence ever could. She makes him feel. And for a man like Logan, that's the most dangerous thing of all. Surviving the mafia is one thing. Surviving each other is another battle entirely.

"Did you not hear me? Get out, Taurus." Unbuckling his seat belt he gets out. I unbuckle my seat and step out the car. His towering 6'3 is standing in front of me looking down at me blank face. "I've taken a lot of disrespect from you, Taurus more than I'm willing to keep taking. Especially from my mate. If you were any other female. I would have snapped your neck, just for your tone. But you are my Queen. So instead I'll be turning that sweet plump ass of yours red with welps." My panties instantly drenched. He breaths in deep and his eyes turn black. "Turn around and put your hands on the car." I do as he say no questions, my mind wants me to stop it. But my heart and body want this. " I want you to count, and after you count ask for another." He grips my scalp yanking my head back so his lips are by my ear. "Politely." A moan slips as I feel his breath caress my skin. "Don't miss sweet heart or I'll start over." My arousal hits full force. A deep growl rubles from his belly.
