Ace Allister is a cunning and ruthless monster. Gianna Phoenix is a fiery and independent woman who will stop at nothing to destroy him for the murder of her brother. When they are forced into an arranged marriage for the good of their notoriously criminal families, their mutual animosity will spark into a fire that ignites their passion-or destroy them both. Gianna has one goal: get Ace to fall in love with her, and then kill him. Ace has another: get Gianna to fall in love with him, so she can't. And as they fall headfirst into a world of dark personal vendettas and murderous motives, the line between love and loathing begins to blur, until it becomes clear that saying "Till death do us part" wasn't just a promise-it was a threat. They say the course of true love never did run smooth; but in their case, it might just turn deadly.

When you're trapped between a crooked cop and the leader of a powerful mafia family, sometimes the only way to get yourself out is to dive back in. Sadie Sorento thinks she's left the mafia life behind. But when she finds herself in hot water with the police, she is offered a choice: go back to where she came from and spy on Brandon Avenetti, feared mafia leader and her ex-boyfriend, or her brother goes to jail. Returning to her old world of drugs, violence, and a ruthlessly attractive former lover proves more complicated than she'd ever imagined, however, and the passion Sadie and Brandon had both thought was dead in the water proves to be as dangerously intense as the cop hunting them. Now, Sadie and Brandon will have to play dirty if they're going to take down a man hell-bent on destroying them both; because if they don't, their families, their relationship, and their very lives will be on the line.

A sizzling, contemporary reimagining of Beauty and the Beast...with a wicked billionaire twist. A BILLIONAIRE. A BARGAIN. AND A THRILLING COMPETITION... Lily Frazer would do anything to save the Frazer Center for the Arts--even take on the infamous billionaire Calder Cunningham. When Lily breaks onto the Cunningham estate, she only wants to find and reason with Calder. (All right, all right, she wants to punch him in the face, too, but that's Plan B.) As it turns out, the arrogant billionaire is willing to give her the money he promised, but there's a catch: she must win it from him. And the games he has in mind aren't exactly...innocent. Lily isn't about to give up the money without a fight (or let some haughty bastard seduce her), but she quickly discovers that there might be more to the brooding Calder than she initially perceived. What ensues is a competition hotter than Lily ever could have imagined, and a romance deeper than she ever could have dreamed. But as their games of cat and mouse become increasingly intense, both are forced to face the deeper question: in games of lust and love, what is the price of victory?
