At 26, Kiara Marshall is no stranger to sacrifice. After the tragic loss of her sister Rachel and brother-in-law Maximus Ashton, she steps into the role of CEO at Marshton Publishing and guardian of her 8-year-old niece, Mia. Balancing the demands of a prestigious company with the responsibility of raising Mia, Kiara has always prioritized her niece's safety, honoring the deathbed promise she made to her sister. To Kiara, love is a distraction, a vulnerability she can't afford. Her devotion to Mia leaves no room for romance, especially when no man seems to understand the depth of her commitment.

Enter Jaxon Klein, a 30-year-old world-famous musician with a dangerous edge. As the second son of a powerful Mafia family, Jaxon enjoys the duality of a rockstar's fame while being tied to his family's underworld dealings. With millions of adoring fans, a string of publicized relationships, and scandalous headlines, Jaxon seems to be the quintessential bad boy. But beneath the surface, he craves something real, something more than the fleeting attention that comes with stardom.

As their lives intertwine, they must confront the secrets they hide and the scars they bear. Can Jaxon convince Kiara that love doesn't mean sacrificing her responsibilities? And can Kiara open herself to love, knowing it could risk everything she's built for Mia?

In a world where fame and family collide, will they find a love worth fighting for, or will their pasts consume them both?

Here are a few questions I am constantly asked: 'Do I do well in school?' No, are you kidding me? The only subject I'm good at is Visual Arts. 'Do I have a kind and caring family?' No, I don't think I do. 'Do I have anyone who cares about me?' No, I'm a loner and socially awkward. 'Do I have privileges?' No, if you haven't understood the message yet, I live in an abusive household. Now, you might ask if there are any questions the answer is yes. I'll give you some. 'Do I want to die?' Yes, I sometimes do. 'Do I feel alone in this world?' Yes, always. 'Do I get a beating every day?' Yes. *** This is Amara Williams, a 13 year-old with average grades and no friends. What happens when her only guardian, her dad, is dead? What happens when she finds out that she has five older brothers who are not only strict and demanding, but also protective assholes?

Behind Closed Doors by Brooklyngirl1026
8 parts Complete Mature
I never thought my life would be like this; trapped in a dark room and scared for my life. A blindfold was wrapped around my head, covering my eyes, making me completely blind and on high alert. My breathing was ragged and I could smell the mold that was most likely covering most of the room. My hands were tied behind my back, my feet tied together and I was sitting on the floor, propped up against a wall. I heard a slight shuffling across the room that was coming closer to me. I tried my hardest to keep my breathing under control to seem confident and fearless, but in reality, I was shitting my pants and squealing like a scared little girl on the inside. To say I was terrified was a drastic understatement. I was petrified, shaking with fear, but they were not going to know that. "Who are you?!" I demanded. If I was going to die, it would be with the name of my kidnapper. A voice boomed closely to me, "Well, if I told you that, this wouldn't be any fun." **************** Skylar James, a 24 year old girl, is kidnapped by a very well known gang who has a vendetta against her family. In an attempt to find light in her situation, she makes friends with one of the members. Logan Grant was forced into the gang at the young age of 16. He was abused until he became emotionless and ruthless, so that one day, he could rule the gang. Everything was going smoothly until Skylar is brought in. With a blindfold wrapped around her head, he instantly feels bad for her, though he cannot show it. Afraid of getting caught, he shows no emotion while others are around. Though, behind closed doors is a whole other story.

"You can have me, Kian," I whispered, elation that my plan was coming into play, making my voice low. "Are you sure? Because you don't know, Jade. You," a deep groan escaped him, the rumble of his words vibrating against the arch of my throat, "don't know how much it's taking me not to bend you over and slam myself inside you." ***|***|*** Coldhearted and ruthless, Kian Fields is done with his toxic marriage. Bitter, he focuses on his multi-billionaire company, loathing all women that roam the face of the Earth. Until he meets feisty Jadesola, who goes out of her way to mock him. Stunning and hot-headed, Jadesola is on the verge of poverty---her no-good ex-fiance has made off with half of her casino's earnings--- and the only choice she has is to request financial aid from none other than her nemesis, Kian. Except that Kian has a thrilling game plan up his infuriatingly gorgeous sleeve. He's out for revenge and will only agree, if and only if she becomes his personal assistant a.k.a office slave. But Jade is a woman with a fierce backbone and it would be a cold day in hell before she dances to his wicked tunes. With sinister family secrets and chilling mysteries blowing their entangled way, it's a wonder who would tame the other and come out victorious. The game is on. EXPLICIT CONTENT.
