He died. He burned. He came back for her.
---
Shawn Comerford never expected to die young-let alone wake up burning alive and reborn as something not quite human.
But fate had other plans.
After being mysteriously killed by a hitman, Shawn is reborn in fire-only to learn he's not just alive. He's become something mythic. A phoenix person, reborn in fire and charged with protecting a world that doesn't even believe in magic anymore.
Now, with a strange fire pulsing beneath his skin, Shawn's given a mission he doesn't understand-one that leads him to Brenda Rodriguez. The one girl fate says he can never have.
She's beautiful, brilliant... and cursed. Romantic love is fatal for her. Her family's bloodline ensures it. Anyone who falls for her is marked for destruction. And yet-Shawn can't stay away.
Even though ancient demons are involved, dragons soar the skies, and a centuries-old curse haunts them.
He was reborn for a reason. He was chosen for her. And he'll burn every demon in hell to save their love.
Because when you're a phoenix person and your love is forbidden... You don't run. You rise. You burn.

The Fifth Wife's Daughter
Nineteen-year-old Sloane Vale has spent her life outrunning shadows-her mother's lies, her own silence, and the incident that shattered their relationship forever. Now, after her mother's fifth marriage, Sloane is dragged into a world she never asked to enter: high society, old money, and a secret circle of power that runs the city from behind masked galas and blood-soaked contracts. She shows up on a motorcycle, all leather, scars, and fake smiles-and immediately disrupts everything. Especially him. Her new stepbrother, West Callahan-cold, perfect, untouchable. And his friends: Jude, who smiles while he breaks things. Beckett, who hides his pain in brutal art. Rhys, who runs the society like a king with a golden noose. They're all older. They're all dangerous. And they're all bound to each other by secrets Sloane isn't supposed to know-or want. But Sloane doesn't follow rules. Not when they belong to the people who tried to bury her once. Not when every kiss tastes like defiance. Not when every lie she unravels brings her closer to the truth... and the boys who would burn the world to keep her. As their obsession turns deadly and their twisted society demands loyalty above love, Sloane has to decide: Will she destroy them from the inside out-or claim them as hers first?Complete![Tempting Darkness [17+] ✔](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/219526732-256-k941520.jpg)

White Lies
"You can't take all of us, sweetheart." Valen's voice is smooth, teasing, but the way his fingers brush against my hip isn't playful. It's testing. Behind me, Fennec chuckles, his breath warm as he leans in, his lips barely ghosting the shell of my ear. "She could try." His voice dips lower, dragging heat down my spine. "I'd love to watch her try." ------------------------------- Soraya Cordova was never meant to survive. Stolen as a child and discarded as a mistake, she was given a second chance when the Cordovas adopted her into a life of wealth, secrets, and silent wars.

Surrender Or Drown {The Siren and The Fenrir Trilogy Book I}
"Bella, you can't keep doing this to me. I can be real fucking patient, or I can be really fucking unkind." He grabbed her hips and skimmed his fingers down the chunk of her outer thighs. "I'm sorry, but I didn't ask for him to kiss me. And I told you, you and I-we're over." He placed his hand over her mouth. He let his tears stream down his nose, his lips quivered with the words she'd just used to curse him. "I don't like it." He let out through his teeth, his glasses fell low on his nose and she could tell he was in agony. "I'm sorry." She declared before pulling him in for an embrace. Her arms wrapped around his neck and his hands drove up and into her hair, guiding her face to look up. His mouth parted over hers, she opened her lips and kissed him slowly, enchantingly. Brandon was sure she wished him to die. As she swallowed his breath, and fed him her own-she gave him no gaps to breathe. Almost as if his siren had come up from her watery throne just to drag him back under. He started pounding his fists against the wall behind her, careful not to hurt her in any way. His mouth moved over hers like he had no choice but to kiss her back. He laid no hand to her body, because he knew in that moment-he'd go too far. He didn't want to hurt her. But he did want to burrow into her body and command her soul. She was the sole reason for his jealousy, the only person who held the switch to all of his desires. Bella had been born to be the woman who would subdue the demons inside his soul. She was created for him. He felt it long before he accepted it. But now-he couldn't bear the consequences of denying the gift in which God was giving him in her. His redemption was a direct result of having her in his life. Both cursed and blessed-Brandon couldn't afford to lose her anymore. She was his. Forever. She chased him-so in full circle. Perhaps it was his turn now. "Bella... say you'll be mine. Please."Complete
