Laura Holland. A sweet girl-next-door who works in a cafe and writes recipes in her free time. But then again, who really is that simple? 

Laura lives in a household that leaves her with bruises and scars but that doesn't stop her from pretending that everything is fine. She's learned that from being able to see the death of every single person. Until she meets Arden and Alex Castell. Two boys who move in next door. Two boys with stormy eyes. Two boys who aren't marked by death. 

As Laura delves deeper, she finds that the boys are nothing human. She uncovers secrets that test friendships and family ties, secrets that are bound to her more so than she thinks. The life she thinks she knows fades behind with each decision she makes.

She felt his surprise. She felt his light extinguish as he died. Then there was nothing. Nothing. Her head was swimming like it was underwater. She couldn't move. She couldn't move. Her vision blurred, a man was speaking but she couldn't hear his words. She felt the sword in her chest, but it wasn't there. He killed him. He killed him. Breathe. Did she stop? Breathe. The man, she could hear him speaking. What was he saying? Breathe. She inhaled a deep breath. And another. Then another. Things started to clear. "Breathe. That's right," the warrior coaxed.

When Selené Cortez told her crime boss fiancé that she would rather die than marry him, she meant every word- she just wasn't expecting him to call her bluff. Now, making his bodyguard, Anya, fall in love with her might just be the only thing that will save her life. Season 1 of Protecting Selené *** Bound in a loveless engagement with one of the most dangerous crime bosses in Atlanta, Selené Cortez wants nothing more than to get away from the man who keeps her caged. But when she tries to break off the engagement, Trey makes it clear that leaving isn't an option. At least, not alive. With their marriage only weeks away and nowhere left to turn, Selené sets her sights on removing Trey's biggest threat-his bodyguard and closest confidant, Anya Porter. She knows Anya can't kill her if she's in love with her. As Selené pulls Anya into a steamy, dangerous affair that could destroy them both, the line between manipulation and reality starts to blur. Anya is everything Selené's always wanted, and there's an unexpected softness underneath her tough exterior that threatens to disarm Selené's plan. But in a world that thrives on deception and power, how can Selené ever really trust Anya? And with Trey watching her every move, will she ever have a shot at real love?
