Gwenn Davidson has always known she was adopted, but after clearing up her stuff for her first move out of her parent's house, she finds an old blanket gifted to her by her birth mother that triggers an avalanche of curiosity. She wants to find her biological family, but with a closed adoption and parents that shut her questions down, she has no clue how. Until she's thrown into Ronan King's direction, the guy with all the connections, who just so happens to be her boss's son.
The two strike a deal with one condition: no one must know they're working together.
But there are eyes everywhere, lurking and waiting to pounce on unsuspecting prey. Gwenn is trapped into a web of lies and blackmail until she questions everything and everyone around her, including herself.
Raw and treacherous, the tale of two souls playing with fire and ice.

STOLEN FIRSTS
Kayla had only two dreams: to work hard, save enough for college, and to one day fall in love with a man who would cherish her just as deeply. She promised herself that all her firsts, especially her first kiss, would be with him, and no one else. Then came Aiden, blunt, emotionally closed-off, and completely lacking in social awareness. And the first thing he did? Shatter the careful plans Kayla had built for herself. Life, it turns out, has a way of stealing moments you thought you'd control. --- Excerpt. My heart pounded and my palms turned clammy. I could feel myself spiraling as I brought trembling fingers to my swollen lips. My first kiss. My stolen first kiss. "You... you..." A tear slid down my cheek, and I wiped it away with frustration. He took something that wasn't his to take, something I had saved for someone who would love me, someone I would love in return. My soulmate. I didn't know how to make sense of it all. It had happened so fast. "Relax, princess," he said with a scoff. "It's just a kiss. No need to overreact." His words hit me like a slap and sank like a punch to the gut. He stole it. And he didn't even care.Concluida

After turning twenty-one, Maya sets out to find the birth mother who might explain everything. A violent encounter with a mysterious man plunges her into a darker world. He is as haunted as she is-fierce, damaged, terrifyingly tender. Their chemistry is immediate and volatile: refuge that threatens control. As Maya digs into the past, buried secrets fracture her identity and force impossible choices. Trauma refuses neat endings. Love becomes both lifeline and liability-can redemption survive, or will the darkness destroy them both? What will Maya uncover about herself and his past as she tumbles down this dark path? Is he her safe place to land? Chapter 23 Peek: "Maybe start with no more lying to her?" Miles butted in, his glare sharp enough to cut, the frustration rolling off him in waves. "Easier said than done, and you know that, Miles." I took another long drag off the cigarette, the smoke burning down my throat but doing nothing to loosen the knot in my chest. "Yeah, doesn't mean I don't believe you both should've been more honest," Miles shot back, shrugging like he was trying to play it casual, but his jaw was tight, and his eyes stayed locked on me, daring me to argue. "Trey just loves getting in the way and dividing people," I growled, the words coming out rough. "He singles out the weak and isolates them until he can strike. I'm not saying Maya is weak, because she's fucking not, but this motherfucker has done nothing but manipulate her." "I don't disagree with you, but this is on you, too, Gray." Miles' voice dropped, cold and direct, the frustration finally cracking through. "You fucked up - don't just blame it on the narcissistic psychopath. So does that mean if she asks us to stop keeping watch, are you going to give in?" "Well, I wouldn't really have much of a fucking choice, now would I?" I sighed, rolling my eyes as I finished the beer, the empty bottle suddenly feeling too light in my hand.
