In the dead-end town of Maple Grove, Missouri, sixteen-year-old Lily is a ghost in plain sight. At 4'11" and 117 pounds, with her innocent blue eyes and blonde hair, she's used to being overlooked. But survival isn't a choice. With her parents lost to their addictions, Lily's world is a desperate balancing act: navigating the hallways of her public high school by day and the lurid, neon glow of a strip club by night. She guards two secrets fiercely-her body, and the fragile hope that there must be something more.
He is that something more. And he is watching.
He calls himself raffaele. He is everything her world is not: darkly handsome, impossibly tall, with piercing green eyes and a wealth that seems limitless. From the shadows of the club to the periphery of her life, his presence is a constant, unsettling thrill. He is her stalker, a phantom of terrifying desire and obsession.
Lily should be terrified. And part of her is. But another part is dangerously captivated. How can someone so beautiful, so powerful, be so fixated on her? The line between fear and fascination blurs when he approaches her not with a threat, but with a proposition-an offer of a sum of money that could change her life, in exchange for the one thing she has left to sell: her virginity.
Now, Lily is caught in a gilded trap. Is Raffaele a savior in a sinister guise, offering a way out of her nightmare? Or is he the most dangerous predator of all, drawn to her very vulnerability? In a story as dark as it is seductive, Lily must decide if the price of her freedom is worth the cost of her soul.
the debt of desperation is a contemporary New Adult romance that explores the dangerous allure of obsession, the fight for survival, and the terrifying question: Can you truly love the monster in the dark?

**16+ ONLY** This story contains dark romance, heavy possessiveness, violence, obsession, and explicit content. *"Try speaking to her again-and I'll bury your tongue with my bullets. > Touch her, and I'll make sure your mother can't recognize your corpse."* --- He is a walking nightmare wrapped in silk suits and bloodstained hands. The name **Luca** is enough to silence a room. King of the Underworld. Ruler of shadows. A ghost even the law refuses to chase. His empire is built on violence, betrayal, and bodies no one dares to count. He does not speak twice. He does not leave witnesses. Mercy died the day he first picked up a gun. He is cruel to the world. He is lethal to anyone who looks at her too long. And for her... he becomes something almost gentle. Almost human. Almost soft. Almost. --- She is softness in a world that never deserved her. **Lily** is light-pure, untouched, and blissfully unaware of the darkness waiting just beyond her little bubble. She believes in morning coffee, quiet laughter, and happy endings. She still thinks love is supposed to be kind. Until he decides she belongs to him. And the moment someone dares to lay a finger on her, Luca does not simply arrive. He brings war. She becomes his obsession. His addiction. His only reason to keep breathing-and the only reason he is willing to burn the entire world to ash. There is no escape from his grip. No hiding from his gaze. No running from the twisted fate that has already claimed her. But what happens when the angel starts falling for the demon? What happens when she begins to see the fractured, dangerous good buried beneath all that blood? She was never supposed to love him. He was never supposed to let her live long enough to try. Now neither of them has a choice. --- **#1 in Kidnapped** **#56 in Bad Boy Γ Good Girl** **#58 in Possessive** **#1 in lovable**Complete

They will raise hell if they do not end up together.
The Mafia's Mercy
The darkness in his eyes, the dangerous smell of alcohol in his breath, and his deathly grip keeping me bound to him made my heart pound in my chest and my body quiver beneath him. Shamefully, it wasn't anything that I wasn't used to, because...the things I let him do to me? When he was frustrated, annoyed, and angry at the world, I was here to be his pound of flesh. In return, he masked the void of my loneliness because for months, that was the transaction of our relationship. He'd pin me to the wall, bend me over the counter, pull my hair, slap me, choke me, and I enjoyed every second of it because in that moment, it finally felt good to be powerless. Irony is a funny thing. I enjoyed being in pain because it made me forget how much I was hurting. *** "I warned you, doll." His voice strikes a string of chills down the base of my spine, a reminder that all of the time in the world could pass, and he's still not letting go. This is where the good girl in me dies. "You're mine now," he whispers. *** My name is Mercy-Mercy Carter. I went to college. Got myself a useless Bachelor of Science in Mathematics degree. His name is Marcel-Marcello SaldΓvar. However, at the time, I didn't know that he, the heir to the SaldΓvar Mafia empire, was the man that I had blindly offered myself to. As smart as I am, I was stupid all the times when it actually mattered. After all, he did warn me that he was dangerous. I just didn't think he could be much worse than my thug of a brother. I was vulnerable-naive. My name is Mercy, and I belong to him. My name is Mercy, and I am The Mafia's Mercy. β οΈ Content Advisory: This is a DARK Romance novel, in every sense of the word.

Wet Secrets: Bound by Lust|18+
She was never supposed to be his. But she made the mistake of smiling at the night. And the worst the.....night..... smiled back..... There's someone in the dark- Someone who knows the curve of her lips before she speaks. Who memorized the trail of her wet hair against her back. Who watches. Wants. Waits. He doesn't knock. He doesn't ask. He just takes-in silence, in shadows, in dreams soaked with hunger. She thinks she's alone in the shower. She thinks no one hears the moans she buries in her pillow. She thinks her secrets are hers. She doesn't know someone's already claimed her. Every inch. Every sound. Every drop. And then-there's Asher Wilson. Cold. Sinful. Dangerous. The kind of man who doesn't belong in her world... yet pulls her into his like a moth to flame. Every glance from him feels like a bruise, every word like a promise dipped in sin. He doesn't touch her- not yet. But she feels him everywhere. Two shadows circle her- one watching from the dark, the other standing in the light... yet both feel the same. One whispers danger. The other breathes temptation. And between them, she is already burning. When their bodies finally collide, it won't be love. It'll be possession-slow, sinful, and too wet to forget. Because some secrets don't whisper. They drip. And some obsessions don't knock. They enter. But who will claim her? The stalker in the dark... or the man who feels just as dangerous? What if they're not two men at all? What if the fire and the shadow belong to the same monster? And when she learns the truth- will she run from it... or fall to her knees and worship it? But, what so ever happens- In the end........ she was always his and he was hers and he will stake his soul to prove it even, if it killed both of them..!

His Light, Her Darkness
"You are mine!" He roars. "I will do whatever it takes to make you know that. Whether it means I lock you up in a prison and throw away the key." Footsteps come rushing into the dining room, and I turn to see multiple men--guards I suppose, flanking one another. Each of their hands rest on things within their jackets. Which i can only guess are guns. What else would they be? He waves them off and stalks towards me, standing behind my chair. I try to turn my head to look behind me, at him, but his hands move to the sides of my face, stopping me. "I can give you the world Mia. I am no fool. I know that love takes time, and I will give you as much as it takes. But you are mine." He says so calmly. -------------------------- When Mia Jones, a College student from Australia with a mysterious past is offered the opportunity to work as a translator for a man she had never heard of in New York City, she had assumed it would be a normal job, little did she know it would be the end of her freedom. Matteo Giovanni is the most feared Mafia leader in New York, and the whole country, heir to the Italian Mafia, he is used to getting what he wants. And when he sees Mia walk into his office for a job interview, he knows he wants her. She is his light, and he is her darkness. Will Mia ever be able to escape Matteo and the Mafia, or will she fall in love before she can stop herself?
