She looked at me in wonder, her lips still swollen from our kisses and her eyes still dazed from our encounter. "I don't understand Luke," she said. "How many sides to you are there?" I lifted an eyebrow in amusement. If she knew, she wouldn't be here. My hand reached for her face, placing a lock of her dark hair behind her ear. "Trust me. There's sides of me that you would rather never see." ***** Lucas' story. Need I say more? Cover credit to @AutumnWinters221 check out her work:)

A big thank you to @Rujula07 for the new cover! Amethyst Langston is a romance novelist with a tragic past. The same year her book hit the New York Times Best Seller list, she had a signing at a local book store where she encountered a man most thought harmless, he was anything but. After being kidnapped by Ethan Hamilton and surviving a tortuous eight days, he slipped up and eventually was caught, leading the FBI to a broken and almost dead Amethyst and the heinous trail that Hamilton had left behind him. The trial was the trial of the century, dragging her through all of the painful memories of what he subjected her to, but because she was able to keep her head, the jury came back with a unanimous decision of guilty. Now the penalty phase. Guilty by reason of mental defect. That was laughable. Ethan Hamilton knew exactly what he was doing. He was pure evil. Boston, MA seemed like a good place to start over and after meeting and talking with the court assigned counselor, she did just that. Putting her in touch with a new group, Amethyst meets a quirky, yet sweet English woman named Nigella Ambrose, who is a volunteer at the group. The women form a friendship that rivals anything that Amethyst has ever had and sooner rather than later, Nigella talks her into going on a blind date with a friend of hers. Enter Declan St. James, CEO of DSJ Security Technologies and a real jerk. He's a self made billionaire who thinks the world revolves around him and after his date with Nigella's author friend goes south, he's done. Until they run into each other again. Can Amethyst help him through a hurtful past? Will he let her? Will Declan's heart soften enough to let her in? Will he be able to protect her from her past and the dangers that lie ahead? The names, places and events are all fictional. Any likeness is a sheer coincidence. This work is mine and mine alone.

Sabrina Welsh was just a simple waitress when Liam Collins walked into her life. He wanted her but she was too cautious to let him have her. So he gave a offer she would be too foolish to turn down. Be his paid girlfriend. "God you're so fucking sexy," he'd breathed, his face moving closer to mine. "Go out with me," he groaned. I gasped before nodding. His scent was so intoxicating. His eyes so hypnotizing... "Kiss me," he growled, his eyes suddenly dark and wild with...with lust.
