Rebecca Caruso thought she'd left the darkness behind. 

Once a rising star in law enforcement, she made an unthinkable choice: to protect Marco Montanari, the enigmatic son of Chicago's most notorious mobster. 

The cost? 

Thirteen months behind bars-and the scars that come with betrayal and isolation.

Now out on parole, Rebecca finds herself pulled back into a life she swore to leave. Marco is back, just as dangerous and magnetic as ever, and this time, they share a deadly bond: clearing their names in the murder of Rebecca's brother. The clock is ticking, and the deeper they dig, the closer they edge toward secrets that could destroy them both.

Caught between loyalty and survival, Rebecca must tread carefully in a world where trust is a weapon and desire can be lethal. Danger lurks behind every corner, alliances shift without warning, and Rebecca is forced to question where her heart truly lies-and if it can survive the answers.

In this gritty tale of love, revenge, and redemption, Rebecca Caruso is more than a player--she's the bait.

It's Always Been You by reffar

REWRITTEN Fia Romero thought her life was perfectly content - until she met Wes Hamilton, her boyfriend Nate's devilishly handsome dorm mate. While Fia had been blissfully ensconced in a committed three-year relationship, Wes didn't believe in tying himself down. For him, college was a buffet of options to be explored and experienced to the fullest without the constraints of commitment. Their unlikely friendship blossomed from an outrageous proposition - Wes wanted Fia to be his matchmaker and find him a girl worth forsaking his wild ways for. What started as an innocent game between polar opposites soon ignited an undeniable chemistry that neither could ignore, no matter how hard they tried. What started as match-making turned into a fake-dating relationship, leading to confused feelings and room-fulls of tension. With each coy smile, each heated exchange of banter, the lines between reality and reckless desire began to blur. Suddenly, Fia found herself questioning everything she thought she knew about love, commitment, and the person she believed was her soulmate. A little game of playing Cupid turns into something more and maybe, the person who has always been the one for you was standing right under your nose the whole time.
