Bared to You (Crossfire Series) by Sylvia Day

Bared to You (Crossfire Series)


Our journey began in fire...

Gideon Cross came into my life like lightning in the darkness - beautiful and brilliant, jagged and white hot. I was drawn to him as I'd never been to anything or anyone in my life. I craved his touch like a drug, even knowing it would weaken me. I was flawed and damaged, and he opened those cracks in me so easily...

Gideon knew. He had demons of his own. And we would become the mirrors that reflected each other's most private wounds... and desires.

The bonds of his love transformed me, even as I prayed that the torment of our pasts didn't tear us apart...

Point of Retreat: A Novel (Slammed) by Colleen Hoover


Point of Retreat: A Novel (Slammed)


This book is incredibly sweet and very much not erotica. The only way in which they're like 50 Shades of Grey is that they have deep romance and have a will she/won't she tug at-your-heart plot line. Grab some tissues for your tears when you read these :)

Sometimes two people have to fall apart to realize just how much they belong together.

Colleen Hoover entranced readers everywhere with her bestselling novel Slammed, the book that introduced Layken and Will, a young couple whose love overcame devastating hardships to emerge stronger and more resilient than before. Now, as Layken and Will’s emotion-packed story continues, a stunning and unforeseen revelation about Will’s past leaves them questioning everything that they thought they knew about each other. With the foundation of their relationship at risk, they must decide whether they are willing to fight for a future together, or to retreat back into solitude and heartache.
