Adrianna Saunders has been running for too long. But after years of one eye constantly looking over her shoulder, she's finally gotten to the point where she can fight back. 

Getting involved with Merrick Cortez's drug ring in New York City four years ago was an easy choice at the time. It was the only way she could learn to be a criminal, the only way she'd ever be able to learn to kill, so that's exactly what she did. Because that's what it was going to take to finally be free from the far reaches of her corrupted but powerful father, Federal Agent Aiden Saunders. 

She just didn't anticipate that she'd lose herself along the way.

But maybe that was the point all along. Because after all these years, she still can't face what happened to her the  night her childhood home went up in flames. 

She's tired of running, she's tired of all of it. 
But now is finally her chance to avenge the loved ones that her father had tragically taken from her and damnit if she wasn't going to take it. 

She just wasn't anticipating Luke coming back into her life so unexpectedly, a childhood friend she hasn't seen in over ten years. He was the boy who'd been her world in a time when it was all crumbling down. 

But after finding out Luke works under the same roof as her father, she questions his intentions, her identity and even more troubling, questions the awakening feelings she still has for him. 

At one time, he knew everything there was to know about her and the scary part was, she thought she knew him too. But a lot can change in the time it takes for the boy to become the man. So can she believe in coincidence? 

Or should she look twice.

*Check out the audiobook on Youtube* Emma has sworn never to fall in love, but when circumstances force her to move in with her brother's best friend there are definite sparks. Like when he accidentally picks up her vibrator... Or when she walks in on him naked in the shower... Maybe... maybe they should just do it once... to get it out of their systems. Knightley has been her brother's best friend for as long as she can remember. And now they're all at the same university. It's not until she moves into his apartment that she notices just how grown-up he's become. He's no longer the scrawny boy she never paid attention to. Ripped and handsome, he's no stranger to taking women home. But he never lets them stay the night. Knightley never expected this. Somehow, he's ended up living with his best friend's little sister. And she has turned hot as hell. He does not need the image of her with a vibrator taking up space in his head. She is off limits. Of course she is. No matter what kind of feelings he has for her. This is a brother's best friend, roommates-to-lovers with a secret relationship and steamy benefits. (❤️18+ recommended❤️) It's unedited, so there might be mistakes throughout. Thanks for your understanding! Book 2 in the Benefits series. This is a standalone, but it follows Pride and Hate with Benefits. (Both are inspired by Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice and Emma.)

She doesn't just walk, she commands the ground beneath her feet, she's got assholes lining up for miles to kiss her sweet round ass, and she knows it. ⭐️----------------------⭐️ Alexandra is your seemingly normal, mundane, hardworking southern girl. Working whatever job she can find, but in reality she's a hitman for hire, she doesn't care who her target is... She kills first and asks questions later.

But when Adam comes into her life, everything starts to crumble, everything she's worked for, everything she knows and loves. Does she spiral? Or does she pull herself together enough to bring down the real villain of the story. Adam... A detective who's worked day and night, losing sleep in finding the mysterious killer who calls herself viper, leaving calling cards, and teasing the police.

Mrs Julia Robinson, the wife of American figure skating Olympian Adrian Robinson, is nervous about finally meeting her husband's family. After two years of marriage living in Amsterdam, they've decided it's time to move back to Virginia and give Julia the opportunity to meet the rest of her husband's family. The most important of them all is his close sister and best friend, Adreanna Jones. The flight to Virginia was long, but the car ride to Adreanna's house was short. Despite the short distance, the couple never made it there. Julia wakes up in a hospital, broken and alone. She learnt that they'd been in an accident that claimed her husband's life and sent her into a coma for 12 days. Heartbroken, depressed and disabled, she found herself stranded in a foreign country with no one to lean on. Or so she thought. Adreanna loved her brother more than anyone in the world. He was her father, mother, and best friend. He was her everything. Then he was gone. Julia was the closest thing left to her brother. Adreanna's intentions were to just get to know the woman her brother married, look after her on his behalf until she could look after herself again and eventually return home. But life wiped out those plans before they even cemented as the two women, in a time of hurt and grief, seeking closure, companionship and love, formed a bond they didn't even realise was growing until it was too late. Now they're stuck at a crossroads, having to decide between love and ethics. The sequel to Drea is out now. It is called Mrs Jones. You can find it on my profile. <3
