Alice
Saí apressada do prédio da sala de treinamento dos patinadores, tentando segurar minhas lágrimas de despedida. Eles foram tão gentis comigo, como sempre. Ganhei um lindo da minha equipe pra guardar de lembrança o tempo que passei com eles. Foi tão difícil partir. Meus treinadores estiveram comigo por três anos, mas deixar meu melhor amigo, Lucas, foi o mais difícil. Patinamos juntos desde os quatro anos de idade. Competimos juntos em nosso primeiro Campeonato Júnior e, desde então, sempre aparecemos juntos em competições. Tentamos patinar em dupla algumas vezes e nos acostumamos rapidamente um com o outro. Nossos treinadores disseram que poderíamos tentar competir como uma dupla, mas eu era mais feliz como patinadora solo.
"Alice, espera."
Fechei os olhos ao ouvir ele gritar. Virei para vê-lo correndo atrás de mim. Seu cabelo loiro estava bagunçado e seus olhos azuis estavam cheios de tristeza. Ele ofegava. Eu sabia que ele sentia mais por mim do que amizade e estava pensando em tentar ficar com ele recentemente, pois ele era o único garoto com quem me aproximei, e eu também gostava dele. Pensei que talvez pudesse me apaixonar por ele mais tarde. Mas pensar nisso era tarde demais. Sabia que bater de frente com meu padrasto ia acabar mal, e eu é que ia sair perdendo, não ele. Não tinha escolha. Tive que ir.
"Você não pensou em ficar? Há tantas boas universidades em Montreal. Por que acha que os EUA são melhores?"
Não consegui responder com palavras. Apenas me aproximei, abracei e o mantive firme. Quando ouvi o ônibus chegando, o soltei; beijei sua bochecha e entrei apressadamente no veículo. Sentei do outro lado. Sabia que não conseguiria ver sua figura triste pela janela. Aquilo teria me destruído completamente. Enxuguei minhas lágrimas e tentei observar a vista familiar, mas não vi nada. Desembarquei do ônibus uma parada antes do que deveria. Queria caminhar um pouco, na esperança de clarear minha mente, mas ainda estava no mesmo estado quando cheguei em casa. Ao entrar pela porta da frente, ouvi minha mãe.
"Alice, é você? Venha jantar." Não disse uma palavra. Nem mesmo tinha certeza se ela realmente tinha feito o jantar para todos nós, mas apenas caminhei até a sala de jantar e me sentei. Havia três pratos de comida cozida nos esperando. Não fiquei surpresa ao ver que meu padrasto já estava sentado lá.
Eu odiava ele; Ele nunca me tocou. Eu odiava ele pelos anos de abuso mental que ele causou para mim, e pelo dano mental e físico que ele causou para minha mãe. Mas agora, depois que ele tomou essa decisão, senti como se nunca mais quisesse vê-lo novamente. Fiquei parada quando ouvi a voz dele.
"Alice, falei com os Sullivans por você. Eles não se importam se você continuar patinando no gelo, e também aceitaram seu pedido de que você queira ir para a universidade. Eles disseram que você pode estudar o que quiser."
Não respondi a ele. Ele ficou em silêncio enquanto minha mãe também se sentava.
"Você terá um bom lugar, Alice. Eles são uma das famílias mais ricas de Los Angeles. Eles vão te dar tudo o que nunca pudemos."
Enquanto ele continuava, coloquei meus talheres na mesa. Precisava me conter para não falar.
Ele suspirou, enquanto senti seu olhar sobre mim.
"Você sabe que não temos outra escolha."
E isso foi suficiente. Senti que se não desabafasse, minha raiva me mataria. Levantei-me subitamente e bati na mesa.
"Charles, você tem noção do que fez comigo? Como ousa dizer que não tinha outra escolha? Sou sua enteada. É para isso que você me criou? Para me vender quando estiver sem dinheiro?"
Gritei para ele, tremendo de raiva.
"Se acalme, Alice. Você terá tudo o que quiser, e minhas dívidas e favores que devo a eles serão pagos. Este acordo é benéfico para ambos."
"O que eu tenho a ver com seus tramoias? Por que eu? Você está ciente de que está me forçando a me casar? Você está ciente de que isso é contra a minha vontade? Esta é a minha vida, pelo amor de Deus. Minha carreira, meus sonhos, todo o trabalho árduo desde que eu era pequena foi em vão."
Ele apenas desviou o olhar, como se não se importasse. Olhei para minha mãe, que baixou a cabeça. Eventualmente, Charles se virou para mim.
"Você terá uma boa vida."
"Uma boa vida? Você acha que sou tão burra que não enxergo o que tá rolando? Quem diabos compra um ser humano nos dias de hoje? Eles precisam dos meus órgãos internos? Querem me usar como prostituta ou escrava doméstica?"
Desta vez ele riu.
"De onde você tirou isso? Você será membro da família deles. Eles vão cuidar de você."
"Eu não vou a lugar nenhum. Você me ouve? Você é um perdedor, um idiota. Não vou deixar você tirar dinheiro de mim. Tenho minha vida, tenho minha carreira e vou continuar minha vida aqui. Mesmo que eu tenha que chamar a polícia para me ajudar."
Gritei, mas tive que parar, pois ele se levantou e me arrastou para a parede. Ele segurou meu pescoço. Senti vontade de chorar, mas não queria mostrar isso a ele.
"Você está partindo amanhã. Não me faça repetir se quiser sair inteira."

The Biker's Fate
I squeezed my eyes shut.
"Dani," he pressed. "Do you get me?"
"No, Austin, I don't," I admitted as I pulled my robe closed again and sat up. "You confuse me."
He dragged his hands down his face. "Tell me what's on your mind."
I sighed. "You're everything my parents warned me against. You're secretive, but you're also honest. I feel wholly protected by you, but then you scare me more than anyone I've ever known. You're a bad boy, but when I dated a so-called good one, he turned out to be the devil, so, yeah, I don't get you because you're not what I expected. You drive me crazier than anyone I've ever met, but then you make me feel complete. I'm feeling things I don't quite know how to process and that makes me want to run. I don't want to give up something that might be really, really good, but I also don't want to be stupid and fall for a boy just because he's super pretty and makes me come."
Danielle Harris is the daughter of an overprotective police chief and has led a sheltered life. As a kindergarten teacher, she's as far removed from the world of Harleys and bikers as you could get, but when she's rescued by the sexy and dangerous Austin Carver, her life is changed forever.
Although Austin 'Booker' Carver is enamored by the innocent Dani, he tries to keep the police chief's daughter at arm's length. But when a threat is made from an unexpected source, he finds himself falling hard and fast for the only woman who can tame his wild heart.
Will Booker be able to find the source of the threat before it's too late?
Will Dani finally give her heart to a man who's everything she's been warned about?

Fresh out of high school and suffocating in her dead-end hometown, Margot longs for her escape. Her reckless best friend, Cara, thinks she's found the perfect way out for them both - The Prisoner Project - a controversial program offering a life-changing sum of money in exchange for time spent with maximum-security inmates.
Without hesitation, Cara rushes to sign them up.
Their reward? A one-way ticket into the depths of a prison ruled by gang leaders, mob bosses, and men the guards wouldn't even dare to cross...
At the centre of it all, meets Coban Santorelli - a man colder than ice, darker than midnight, and as deadly as the fire that fuels his inner rage. He knows that the project may very well be his only ticket to freedom - his only ticket to revenge on the one who managed to lock him up and so he must prove that he can learn to love…
Will Margot be the lucky one chosen to help reform him?
Will Coban be capable of bringing something to the table other than just sex?
What starts off as denial may very well grow in to obsession which could then fester in to becoming true love…

After One Night with the Alpha
I thought I was waiting for love. Instead, I got fucked by a beast.
My world was supposed to bloom at the Moonshade Bay Full Moon Festival—champagne buzzing in my veins, a hotel room booked for Jason and me to finally cross that line after two years. I’d slipped into lacy lingerie, left the door unlocked, and lay on the bed, heart pounding with nervous excitement.
But the man who climbed into my bed wasn’t Jason.
In the pitch-black room, drowned in a heady, spicy scent that made my head spin, I felt hands—urgent, scorching—searing my skin. His thick, pulsing cock pressed against my dripping cunt, and before I could gasp, he thrust hard, tearing through my innocence with ruthless force. Pain burned, my walls clenching as I clawed at his iron shoulders, stifling sobs. Wet, slick sounds echoed with every brutal stroke, his body unrelenting until he shuddered, spilling hot and deep inside me.
"That was amazing, Jason," I managed to say.
"Who the fuck is Jason?"
My blood turned to ice. Light slashed across his face—Brad Rayne, Alpha of Moonshade Pack, a werewolf, not my boyfriend. Horror choked me as I realized what I’d done.
I ran away for my life!
But weeks later, I woke up pregnant with his heir!
They say my heterochromatic eyes mark me as a rare true mate. But I’m no wolf. I’m just Elle, a nobody from the human district, now trapped in Brad's world.
Brad’s cold gaze pins me: “You carry my blood. You’re mine.”
There is no other choice for me but to chose this cage. My body also betrays me, craving the beast who ruined me.

This is the story of a border pup who became a goddess by choosing her family; of four imperfect alphas learning how to stay; of cake, iron, and daylight negotiations. Steamy, fierce, and full of heart, Goddess of the Underworld is a reverse harem, found-family paranormal romance where love writes the rules and keeps three realms from falling apart.
Crossing Lines
Noah
I was here to prove myself—

And then I met him.
Coach Aiden Mercer.
Cold. Demanding. Built like a legend and twice as ruthless.

From the first Sir, I wanted to kneel.

He looked at me like he saw through every mask I wore…

Breaking him down until he begged for what he swore he didn’t need.
This was not supposed to get personal, but every second he disobeyed made me want to claim him harder.
And if he crossed the line…
I’d make damn sure he never forgot who he belonged to.

After the Affair: Falling into a Billionaire's Arms
On my birthday, he took her on vacation. On our anniversary, he brought her to our home and made love to her in our bed...
Heartbroken, I tricked him into signing divorce papers.
George remained unconcerned, convinced I would never leave him.
His deceptions continued until the day the divorce was finalized. I threw the papers in his face: "George Capulet, from this moment on, get out of my life!"
Only then did panic flood his eyes as he begged me to stay.
When his calls bombarded my phone later that night, it wasn't me who answered, but my new boyfriend Julian.
"Don't you know," Julian chuckled into the receiver, "that a proper ex-boyfriend should be as quiet as the dead?"
George seethed through gritted teeth: "Put her on the phone!"
"I'm afraid that's impossible."
Julian dropped a gentle kiss on my sleeping form nestled against him. "She's exhausted. She just fell asleep."
The mafia princess return
Her CEO Stalker and Her Second Chance Mate
“Where is that slut of yours, Creedon? Must be a hell of a lay. The coffee is going to be cold,” Michael complained. “What's the point in keeping her around? She's not even your breed.”
Not his breed?
“You know me, I like nice accessories, Besides, she is smarter than she looks."
An Accessory?
“Stop toying with the girl. You're letting her get too close to us. Not to mention the scandal you’ll have with the press once they realize she's a poor country girl. America will fall in love with her, you will just crush them when you’re done with her. Poor Image...” The sound of fits hitting the table silenced the room.
“She’s mine! She is no concern of yours. I can fuck her, breed her, or cast her aside, remember who's in charge here. “If I want to use her as a cum bucket, I will." His anger explosive.
Breed me? Cast me aside? Cum bucket? I think not!*
“She is pretty, but she’s of no value to you, Creedon. A pebble in a sea of diamonds, darling. You can have any woman you desire. Fuck her out of your system, and sign off on her,” Latrisha spat. “That one is going to become a pain in your ass. You need a bitch that will submit.”
Someone, please, come mop up the word vomit this woman has just spewed.
“I have her under control, Trisha, back the fuck off.”
**Control? Oh, hell naw! ** He hadn't met the take no bullshit southern bitch I could be.
Rage brewed as I elbowed open door.
Well, here goes everything.
The Biker Alpha Who Became My Second Chance Mate
"You're like a sister to me."
Those were the actual words that broke the camel's back.
Not after what just happened. Not after the hot, breathless, soul-shaking night we spent tangled in each other's arms.
I knew from the beginning that Tristan Hayes was a line I shouldn't cross.
He wasn't just anyone, he was my brother's best friend. The man I spent years secretly wanting.
But that night... we were broken. We had just buried our parents. And the grief was too heavy, too real...so I begged him to touch me.
To make me forget. To fill the silence that death left behind.
And he did. He held me like I was something fragile.
Kissed me like I was the only thing he needed to breathe.
Then left me bleeding with six words that burned deeper than rejection ever could.
So, I ran. Away from everything that cost me pain.
Now, five years later, I'm back.
Fresh from rejecting the mate who abused me. Still carrying the scars of a pup I never got to hold.
And the man waiting for me at the airport isn't my brother.
It's Tristan.
And he's not the guy I left behind.
He's a biker.
An Alpha.
And when he looked at me, I knew there was no where else to run to.
Mated by Contract to the Alpha
William—my devastatingly handsome, wealthy werewolf fiancé destined to become Delta—was supposed to be mine forever. After five years together, I was ready to walk down the aisle and claim my happily ever after.
Instead, I found him with her. And their son.
Betrayed, jobless, and drowning in my father's medical bills, I hit rock bottom harder than I ever imagined possible. Just when I thought I'd lost everything, salvation came in the form of the most dangerous man I'd ever encountered.
Damien Sterling—future Alpha of the Silver Moon Shadow Pack and ruthless CEO of Sterling Group—slid a contract across his desk with predatory grace.
“Sign this, little doe, and I'll give you everything your heart desires. Wealth. Power. Revenge. But understand this—the moment you put pen to paper, you become mine. Body, soul, and everything in between.”
I should have run. Instead, I signed my name and sealed my fate.
Now I belong to the Alpha. And he's about to show me just how wild love can be.
