Rosanna Morgan grew up believing her father was a legend-a Texas Ranger who stood between chaos and order.

But legends have shadows.

When she joins the DHS and takes an undercover mission to expose a cartel-linked terror group, she expects danger. She doesn't expect to find the Clayton brothers-the boys who once felt like home-now the men she's sworn to bring down.

Duty demands she betray them. Her heart refuses to obey. As she falls deeper into their world, Rosie begins to see how thin the line between justice and vengeance really is. The father she worshipped became a monster in the name of righteousness, and now she's not sure she's any different.

With love and loyalty colliding, Rosie must decide who she's fighting for-and what kind of person she's willing to become when the truth finally burns through the lies.

She's left with a choice: Betray her badge and her father's legacy or betray the men who hold her heart in their hands.

High, he spends his days teaching and his nights haunted by the life he left behind.

When a stranger steps out of the shadows with an offer Izuku can't ignore, he's thrust into a hidden world of corruption and power. Beneath the polished hero rankings and dazzling debuts lies a web of lies spun by the Hero Commission and government officials-a system built on control, manipulation, and sacrifice.

Faced with a choice between the life he's built and the chance to truly make a difference, Izuku must decide: will he cling to the legacy of the hero he once was, or risk everything to fight in the shadows?

" He was her enemy. She was his weapon. But somewhere in the wreckage, they became each other's ruin. " The only rule of survival? Never trust a monster. Zahra Cordero knows this better than anyone. Burdened by a bloody past and a failed mission that left her imprisoned in a forgotten orphanage, she's spent years carving herself into a ghost. No one knew where the children went. No one dared to find them. Until she escapes. But freedom comes at a brutal price. Leo Colton-ruthless, powerful, feared-hunts monsters like her for sport. His empire, Leviathan, is a criminal empire soaked in blood and secrets. Leo wants one thing: revenge. And when Zahra falls into his hands, he sees more than just a broken girl. He needs a weapon. She needs an escape. Dragged into a brutal contract where her loyalty is the currency, Zahra must play Leo's game while hiding her true identity. But as danger closes in, so does he-stalking her mind, tangling in her veins, making her forget that he's the real enemy. Secrets fester. Obsession ignites. And in a world ruled by violence, the deadliest thing between them isn't hatred- It's desire. But when she starts to uncover more of her Mother's secrets and realises that she's caught in a deadly game...the alliance begins. Secrets come to light, games get exposed and in the middle of it all ...is family. If she gives in, she loses everything. If he lets her go, he loses the war. Because in the end...

She was sent to hunt him. He was waiting for her. In a world where loyalty is a weapon and love is a dangerous game, Layla Mercer walks a fine line between survival and betrayal. What begins as a mission turns into something far more twisted when the man she's meant to capture sees through her lies-and plays along. He's dangerous, charming, and far too perceptive-and he seems to know exactly what she's hiding. As the lines blur between hunter and hunted, Layla starts to wonder who's really pulling the strings... and how much of herself she's willing to lose. Every kiss is a lie. Every touch, a trap. Everyone has something to hide. Nothing is what it seems. And as secrets unravel and truths turn lethal, Layla finds herself trapped in a web of deception spun long before she ever entered the game. Some saints were made to be worshipped. Others were meant to burn. This is not the story you think it is. "To destroy the devil, I had to become his favorite saint."

K by benin_zara

The snow never forgets. That's the first thing they learned when they found her- half-dead, half-shadow, and entirely silent. She wore a scar like a warning. She had no name... or too many. And her eyes? Storm-grey. Unbothered. Unblinking. Unforgiving. They chained her. Whipped her. Tried to break her open like a confession. She smiled instead. They said she was a terrorist. A spy. A ghost. No one knew the truth. But when word spread that he was coming- The Director. The Ghost Hunter. Even the storm outside quieted. Because some stories aren't just secrets. They're scars with a heartbeat. And this one? It started with a girl on her knees... and ends when they both stop breathing.

DISCLAIMER: This book contains explicit content and mature themes intended for readers aged 18 and over. It is not a traditional romance, but rather a deeply complex and dark exploration of a toxic relationship. The characters' dynamics involve intense emotional manipulation, power struggles, and actions that may be triggering to some readers. Please be advised that this story delves into themes that are explicit, emotionally charged, and may not be suitable for all audiences. Proceed with caution. "Tell me again how you don't want me," he whispers, dragging his lips down her neck. "Say it under oath, and I might even believe you." Jasmine Taylor doesn't lose. Not in the courtroom, not in life. At just twenty-six, she's built an ironclad reputation: fierce, brilliant, and unshakably professional. But when she's assigned the biggest case of her career-defending Dimitri Alekseev, a dangerously alluring Russian immigrant accused of murder-her world begins to crack. Dimitri isn't just a suspect. He's a problem. Tall, tattooed, and terrifyingly unreadable, with ties to a powerful family the law doesn't dare touch. The evidence against him is overwhelming. The press wants him buried. And deep down, Jasmine suspects the whispers are true. But the more time she spends with him, the harder it becomes to separate fact from instinct. Because beneath his cold exterior is something intoxicating. Calculated charm. Raw heat. And secrets whispered in the dark. As the trial barrels forward, Jasmine finds herself pulled into his world-one filled with shadows, blood ties, and undeniable temptation. The closer she gets to the truth, the more she risks not just her career, but her safety... and her soul. What happens when the woman who always plays by the rules falls for the man who was born to break them?

And Gianna will have to decide if she's willing to trade fame and fashion... for a second chance, a hometown healing-and the kind of love that doesn't give a damn about headlines.
