What happens when one decides to mix business with pleasure?

Each time, the pieces of her life shift, leaving her wondering what's real, what's worth saving, and what she'll lose if she makes the wrong choice. Because in this world, every fall brings her back to him. And she's not sure how many times her heart can survive it.
Claimed By the Quiet One
He don't talk much. He don't smile either. But when Dre "Ghost" Carter sees Jade for the first time, words ain't even necessary - the look in his eyes says it all: she's his. Dre runs the streets in silence - no noise, no witnesses, no mercy. The kind of man people whisper about but never dare to cross. Jade? She's not from that world. She's quiet, funny, the type who minds her business and stays out the way. Until her best friend drags her to a party that changes everything. One stare across that smoky room, and the most dangerous man in the city decides she belongs to him. Jade swears she's not the "ride or die" type... but Dre's pull feels different. Possessive. Addictive. The kind of love that burns slow - and might just destroy them both. Because in his world, silence can kill... and love can too.Complete

Enemies
So forbidden it's borderline illegal. It feels illegal in a town like this. It was just sex. Ridiculous, I hate you sex with the one guy in school I had no business being with. But the line between love and hate blurs easily. And in a town like this, where secrets are hard to keep, we're playing with fire. Quitting him doesn't work, especially when he wants me even worse than I want him. Despite how much he hates me, despite that we were destined to hate each other. The only sure way to keep a secret is to be the only one who knows it. But this secret already involves two. And it's bound to get out and wreak havoc on my life and my plans for escape. The only questions that will remain are- was he worth it and will we survive the fall out?Complete
Daughter of the Game
DAUGHTER OF THE GAME Born into a name that opens doors, closes deals, and starts wars. Roe thought slipping into Kai's casino for easy winnings was harmless. Just another night, another hustle. Until Kai himself saw her and pulled her into the room where real games are played. Kai is cold, brilliant, and relentless, a man forged by loss and sharpened by power. His men are turning up dead, and her sudden appearance in his domain is too convenient to be coincidence. Now, she's under suspicion. Watched. Cornered. And yet... she doesn't run. She bites back. And Kai, against every instinct, likes the fire in her. But in a world where trust is a weapon and attraction is a liability, one wrong move could burn her family to the ground or pull her into a throne built from blood and ambition. Caught between loyalty to her family and a man who might want her dead or worse want her as an ally, she's forced to play a new kind of game, one where every move could be her last. Because in his territory, survival isn't earned by fear. It's earned by who dares to outplay the King.

Forbidden Desire ✓ | #1 |
This is the first book of a trilogy. All books must be read in chronological order as you may not understand what is happening and I will not be responsible for the caused confusion. ~~~~~~~~~ BRIELLE One night turned into a complete fiasco that seemed to haunt her to the present day. Brielle Hansley was the picture-perfect girl with perfect grades, a reserved job offer and a boyfriend who seemed perfect. At first. Her life couldn't have been any better until her sister got engaged to the man whose brother she knew better than she desired. It was only a month, she told herself. A month under the same roof and then everything would go back to normal. But as she starts to discover new secrets that seem to intertwine her life with his, she doubts she will ever be able to forget the man with whom a one-night stand seemed too good to be true. ~~~~~~~~~ NICOLAS Nicolas Salucci, the heir to the Italian Cosa Nostra was reserved and couldn't confide in anyone. It seemed like his life would continue to be as shallow and dark as his father made it to be until he met her. After overhearing a scheme which could end Nicolas's life, she demanded only a single night. One that he was tempted to give her and did. Only, he didn't think that that one night would cost him his entire heart. The woman was everything he desired and more. Yet he despised her. His father had chosen a woman for him to marry yet how could he marry someone whom he had no feelings for? As verities begin to arise, Nicolas begins to realise that maybe he only hated himself for falling for a woman he couldn't have. And a woman that quickly became his forbidden desire... ~~~~~~~~~ Warning!!! Includes explicit sexual scenes, strong language, mature content, and mentions of suicide.Complete
