I never really expected to get stranded on an island with the notorious bad boy Andrew Woods, but I guess there's a first time for everything. Especially an island that has hidden secrets, secret treasures, and dangerous hazards walking around. What could I do? Deal with it on my own? I stuck with this bad boy. Whether it destroys me or fulfills me in the end, I'll let you decide. Love is dangerous.

❝You've broken me, Caleb. You've destroyed me.❞ She said quietly, her teeth clenched as she gazed up at me. ❝D-don't say that. Please I-❞ ❝Just let go of me!❞ Aria cried out. My eyes darkened as she started to struggle out of my grip but I pressed her further against the wall and stepped even closer to her. I let go of one of her wrists and grabbed her jaw as she pressed her now free hand against my chest to push me away. ❝Never.❞ I whispered. ❝I will never let you leave me, Aria. I am going to get you back one way or another. You're mine and only mine. Remember that.❞ And then I let her go. But this would be the only ever time. The only ever time. *Most of this book is in Aria's P.O.V. Caleb has very few. Warning: contains mature themes and some sexual content.

COMPLETED: 24/02/17 *Warning: LABELLED MATURE. Due to sexual content and graphic language, this book is recommended for readers 17+ in age* Rising boxer Jaxon Cage is known to be a fighter on and off the ring. He's a man on a mission; redeeming the death of his little brother, who was on his way to become a boxing star. Jaxon holds himself accountable for his brother's death and now takes his place in the ring to continue his dream. Turns out, he's a natural. With a 5-year-old daughter he's raising, he needs the money now more than ever and is steadily making his way to the top with the help of his Coach. There's just one problem - he's taken a keen interest in his Coach's daughter and can't afford the distraction or any further burdens. But resisting her and focusing on his torturous reality is easier said than done. Quiet and shy Emily Resnick leads a simple life as an elementary teacher. Or she did, until her father took the talented and outrageously handsome Jaxon Cage under his wing. Now, she finds herself consumed by the dark and brooding but secretly soft-hearted man. She was a goner for him the second she saw the devotion he gave to his daughter and new-found job. As she discovers the many layers to this difficult man, she can't help but want to ease his burdens and carry his demons. She can't help but want him, period. Jaxon is intent on pushing her away, though, and Emily must decide if she should run from the inevitable destruction of her heart while she can, or fight for the fighter.

"I could nibble at your nose... or at your ear... or at your lips... or..." • • • It's December, and Jack Frost has just come to town. Literally. Summer is one of those people who hates winter. Not just because she was named after the opposite season, but because she hated the cold with a burning passion. But when a stunning man with silver hair, frosty blue eyes and a jovial charm walks into her coffee shop, ordering an iced caramel macchiato with extra ice, she suddenly finds it hard to hate the cold. Especially when (despite his constant cold hands) he always seems to burn her with his touch. Something seems off about him, and Summer is not mistaken. Jack Frost is known for bringing on the cold, but Summer is about to learn that he sure as hell knows how to turn on the heat, too.
