"A hero would sacrifice her for the world, but he'd burn the world for her"
Lillian Carter writes about love - the kind filled with passion, pain, and desire. But her other passion-exposing the dangers of technology in the criminal underworld unknowingly puts her in the sights of someone far more dangerous than she could ever imagine.
Christopher Wolfe, the powerful and enigmatic CEo of innovatech, has a secret buried beneath his pristine reputation. He doesn't just chase success - he hunts. And the moment he sets his eyes on Lily, she becomes his newest obsession.
She doesn't know that her research has brought her dangerously close to a truth she should never
uncover. She doesn't know that Christopher has been watching her, studying her every move, wanting her in a way that defies morality. And she doesn't know that in his world, love isn't soft-it's possessive, all-consuming, and deadly.
He would kill for her. Burn the world to keep her. And if she ever discovered the monster lurking beneath his tailored suit, he knows she'd run.
But the thing about being hunted? There's no escaping a predator who has already marked you as his.
She was searching for the truth. He was hunting for her.

Into the Rage
A big thank you to @Rujula07 for the new cover! Amethyst Langston is a romance novelist with a tragic past. The same year her book hit the New York Times Best Seller list, she had a signing at a local book store where she encountered a man most thought harmless, he was anything but. After being kidnapped by Ethan Hamilton and surviving a tortuous eight days, he slipped up and eventually was caught, leading the FBI to a broken and almost dead Amethyst and the heinous trail that Hamilton had left behind him. The trial was the trial of the century, dragging her through all of the painful memories of what he subjected her to, but because she was able to keep her head, the jury came back with a unanimous decision of guilty. Now the penalty phase. Guilty by reason of mental defect. That was laughable. Ethan Hamilton knew exactly what he was doing. He was pure evil. Boston, MA seemed like a good place to start over and after meeting and talking with the court assigned counselor, she did just that. Putting her in touch with a new group, Amethyst meets a quirky, yet sweet English woman named Nigella Ambrose, who is a volunteer at the group. The women form a friendship that rivals anything that Amethyst has ever had and sooner rather than later, Nigella talks her into going on a blind date with a friend of hers. Enter Declan St. James, CEO of DSJ Security Technologies and a real jerk. He's a self made billionaire who thinks the world revolves around him and after his date with Nigella's author friend goes south, he's done. Until they run into each other again. Can Amethyst help him through a hurtful past? Will he let her? Will Declan's heart soften enough to let her in? Will he be able to protect her from her past and the dangers that lie ahead? The names, places and events are all fictional. Any likeness is a sheer coincidence. This work is mine and mine alone.Complete
