°●•He Wants Her and She Hates Him, Destiny Loves Them●°•
Evelyn Smith has always lived in the shadows-soft-spoken, sweet, and invisible. But when fate thrusts her into the world of Hayden Lopez-the city's most feared billionaire with a cruel smile and bloodstained hands-her quiet world shatters.
Handsome, Ruthless, and Dangerously untouchable, Hayden rules his world with blood and control. He doesn't chase. He takes. And the moment he saw Evelyn-soft, innocent,-he decided.
Stripped her of freedom, wrapped her in silk, and locked her in his mansion like a precious, untouchable secret.
But Evelyn wasn't as fragile as she looked.
And Hayden? He wasn't ready for the war between her tears and his obsession.
Because every time she defies him, he falls harder.
Every time she tries to run, he pulls her closer.
And the more she hates him, the more he wants to break her...
She would belong to him.
Even if it meant stealing her away from everything she's ever known.
Held captive in a mansion that looks like paradise but feels like a cage, Evelyn swears she'll never break. But Hayden isn't just a man. He's an obsession. A storm in a tailored suit. And the deeper she sinks into his darkness, the harder it becomes to remember who she was before him.
Some stories were never meant to be gentle.
Some were written in blood, bruised lips, and whispered lies.
And some kings don't need crowns-
They just need someone soft to ruin.
Because she was his from the moment he saw her.
She's the light he wants to own.
Even if it means dragging her into his darkness.
Dive in, Love.. you're about to get obsessed >>

She's seen it all, done it all and doesn't get rattled easily Except when she's told she has to kill the most feared mob boss of the century- Silas Andreeva But what she doesn't know is that this is all a ploy for Silas to test Jade's capabilities. But it isn't just about a test, is it?-it's personal. Silas isn't just looking for a killer; he's drawn to her specifically.

Because deep down, they know-this is the most fun they've had in a long time. This is the kind of love story that simmers-slow burns with tension so thick it's practically crackling. Every interaction is a game of cat and mouse, but neither of them is sure **who's who. And the best part? They both know it's dangerous. They just don't care.Complete

Monstrous Love
WARNING: This book deals with a highly controversial subject matter. Reader discretion is advised. I fell in love with someone dark, twisted and evil. The sick part is... I can't stop. I had no idea that the man I fell in love with was a monster. I had no idea he was a psycho. There's a lot of sick people in this world, Evie. Believe me, I know." His words have tainted all of my memories. The warnings he gave me have each left a scar. He told me he was evil. He told me he was a monster. I didn't believe him. Instead, I fell in love. I now have a choice to make. I can betray him or learn to live with what he's done. What would you do? Excerpt. "Why?" I ask him, trembling uncontrollably as I kneel down before him. "Tell me why you killed them?" "Because they weren't you." He answers simply, gazing at me intently. "I couldn't have you... so I killed them." "My God..." I whisper, scrambling away from him in fear. "You can't tell anyone." He growls, chasing after me in desperation. "They'll tear us apart and lock me away forever." "Isn't that what you deserve?!" I cry, covering my face with my hands. "I deserve you." He whispers, prising my hands away from me. "And I've made a vow to keep you." "Even if it's against my will?" I sob, weeping violently. "I don't want that." He murmurs, raking his fingers through his hair as he begins to lose control. "But I will if I have to." He places a kiss against my forehead and my breathing slows down. His touch calms me and I despise myself for it, torn between scratching his eyes out and asking him to save me. Prepare yourself for a dark, addictive, gruelling and twisted story. Choose your own ending. For the first time my readers can select the ending they prefer. *This New Adult romance contains mature themes, strong language, sexual content and possible triggers which may distress some readers.
