"I'll break down your walls one by one and sneak into the gates of your icy heart before crushing it into tiny pieces." He murmurs mercilessly as his lips lightly brush my ear, the contact eliciting an indescribable sensation through every inch of my body. The proximity is maddening and despite my unwillingness to submit, he knows he's got the upper hand as a sardonic chuckle escapes him. He tightens his grip around my waist from behind, reducing my options of escaping his entrapment. His fingers gently tuck my loose strands behind my ear before he foreshadows, "I'll make you regret ever leaving me and once you come crawling back to me, it'll be too late." ༄ ༄ ༄ Highest Rankings : | Elite #1 | May 29th, 2022 | Luxury #1 | | Lovehate #1 | March 5th, 2021 | Depression #1 | January 30th, 2022 | Humor #2 | February 1st, 2021 | New Adult #5 | July 21st, 2020 Warning contains Uncensored Language, Read at your own risk.

Aria Adkins only cares about three things: 1.) the bills piling up on her kitchen counter. 2.) getting her sister out of their dead-end hometown and off to college. 3.) keeping the bottle of Jim Beam out of her heartbroken, alcoholic mother's reach. Closed-off and content as one can be with a never ending routine of crappy part-time jobs and the task of cleaning up broken whiskey bottles, Aria is used to dealing with things by herself; especially after her father runs off and she's forced to step up to the plate and solely care for her dysfunctional mother and younger sister. At twenty-one, Aria sticks to herself and has no time for men, romance, and most of all, love. After witnessing the demise of her parents' train wreck of a marriage lead to a cycle of adultery, addiction, and abuse, she swears to herself that she wants no part in any of it. That all changes when she crosses paths with tall and tattooed New Orleans native Austin Delaney, who weasels his way into Aria's heart and refuses to let her maneuver life alone. First, he offers her a job. And then? The promise that he's not going anywhere. • Highest Ranking: #1 in New Adult Romance, #4 in Adult Romance, #22 in Romance •

But Liam's a fighter - in and out of the ring. He caught me by surprise. With nothing short of a major blow to my heart, he swooped right in and changed everything I've known. I want to let him in, let him love me, let him fight for me. I want to fight for him. Will I get hurt again? Or will it be worth the hit? Liam: Nova Black is a total knockout-one I didn't see coming. She's beautiful, bold and strong, and that's a deadly combination. If only she'd realize it. My trust is hard to come by. Too many people have ulterior motives, but not her. The more time we spend together, my guard comes down. But hers only seems to go up. I want to be the person she needs, if she'll let me. Our chance encounter wasn't by chance at all, we're meant for each other-flaws, fears and all. She wants to run. But I always fight for what I want, and that's her. Can I convince her that this is worth fighting for? Worth Fighting For is a complete standalone.

I had been second best all my life. But this time, when it comes to her, I'm not willing to accept defeat. I'll do whatever it takes to get her to choose me. *** Having a best friend that was wildly popular, and one of the best hockey players in the United American Hockey League, was both a curse and a blessing. On the plus side, I got to play hockey with my best friend, and there was never a shortage of beautiful girls. At least there wasn't until Nash decided to man up and tell his childhood friend that he'd always loved her. The bad part was that I usually ended up being second best. In my late teens and early twenties I hadn't cared that I wasn't picked in the first round of the draft, or that sponsors chose Nash ahead of me, or even if I ended up with a girl who didn't really want me for me. I made a nice living playing hockey. I had a few good friends and a nice place to live in the middle of Manhattan. Despite not being the best, I'd made most of my dreams come true and it was a far stretch from the lonely kid I'd been growing up in the rural Midwest. I was happy. I was content. Until her.... It's not like I didn't want what Nash had. I did. I do. Who doesn't want a happily ever after? It's just that I've never taken the risk and allowed a woman to see past my defenses before, to see the real me, with my baggage and all my insecurities... until now. As scary as that is in itself, what makes it complicated is that my new roommate, Jackson - who I offered my spare bedroom to a while back when he needed a place to stay - and Bryce - one of my friends and teammates- also seem to have an interest in her... the woman who has me questioning all my decisions. The thing is... I'm pretty sure I'm not willing to be a second choice this time around...
