Carrie
I’ve been in love with Jacob Blake since he picked me up in his strong
arms. He held me close and promised me everything would be okay. I knew
then, I had met the man who would own my heart forever. I was five years
old.
As the years went by, the need and longing for Jacob only
increased—at least on my side. Jacob has never seen me as more than his
kid sister’s best friend. I’ve spent my life chasing after Jacob and
trying to make him see I’m more than just his sister’s little friend. I
never dreamed that by trying to show Jacob how much I loved him, I would
also destroy him. One night...one night that held so much promise, but
ultimately destroyed the man I love and broke him in so many pieces,
that I don’t know if he can be mended back together. Jacob “Dancer”
Blake I’m finally home.
Out of the hell hole I had been
trapped in since killing another man. With the thrust of my knife
everything changed. That night I ended two lives, the scum who had been
trying to rape my little sister’s friend... and my own.
The
other man got the easier out. I live and breathe in a hell I’ll never
escape. My brothers look at me with pity in their eyes. It cuts my
insides out. There’s trouble in the club, trouble all around us and I
have to get my head straight. I have to be able to help them. Trouble
is, I can’t even help myself. I just keep piling the mistakes up. Carrie
just might be my biggest mistake yet. Now it’s another night that’s
haunting me--a night that I keep repeating even if I shouldn’t. I’m so
trapped in the darkness that I can’t stop myself from going back because
she is light. She wants to save me.
You can’t save something as lost as I am. I’m going to destroy her. I’ve warned her. Now I’ll show her.
It was an innocent mistake… All workaholic real estate broker Addison
Andrews wanted was one night of pleasure, and picking the right guy was
no different than shopping from a catalog thanks to the dating app on
her phone. His name was Wilder, and his profile was blank – just a sexy
picture of a man who promised every wicked intention of a one-night
stand. T
he agreement was simple. One night. No last names. But the
second their bodies melded together in the sheets of their posh
Manhattan hotel room, there was no denying they fit together like two
pieces of a broken puzzle. There’s just one problem… Addison
unknowingly swiped right on the one man she wasn’t supposed to be with –
her new stepbrother. All it takes is one bite of forbidden fruit to
become addicted, but being with him has major consequences for their
entire family. And if anyone found out about them, the career she worked
so hard to build would crumble to the ground. But Wilder Van Cleef
doesn’t care about the possibility of a scandal. He wants her, and he’s
willing to do whatever it takes.
Whore. Slut. Typhoid Mary.
I’ve
been called all these at Central College. One drunken night, one act of
irresponsible behavior, and my reputation was ruined. Guys labeled me
as easy and girls shied away. To cope, I stayed away from Central social
life and away from Central men, so why is it that my new biology lab
partner is so irresistible to me?
He’s everything I shouldn’t
want. A former Marine involved in illegal fighting with a quick trigger
temper and an easy smile for all the women. His fists aren’t the danger
to me, though, it’s his charm. He’s sliding his way into my heart and
I’m afraid that he’s going to be the one to break me.
Impulsive. Unthinking. Hot tempered.
I
allow instinct to rule my behavior. If it feels good, do it, has been
my motto because if I spend too much time thinking, I’ll begin to
remember exactly where I came from. At Central College, I’ve got
fighting and I’ve got women and I thought I was satisfied until I met her.
She’s
everything I didn’t realize I wanted and the more time I spend with
her, the more I want her. But she’s been hurt too much in the past and I
don’t want to be the one to break her. I know I should walk away, but I
just can’t.
This is a New Adult novel featuring mature situations and sexually explicit scenes.
Olivia
and Luca Felicone had known each other nearly all their lives, but when
they fell in love as teenagers and eloped to London, they broke the
hearts of those closest to them. Luca’s parents run Marinella’s
restaurant, the colourful hub of life in the otherwise bleak
north-eastern seaside town of Watersford, and his mother, Angela, has
never forgiven Olivia for causing such a rift in her beloved family.
On
a freezing January night Olivia’s life is shattered when she learns
that Luca has been killed in a car accident on the M1. She is left with
nothing, and after suffering from weeks of overwhelming grief, she
abandons her job and returns North to where Luca has been buried in
Watersford, just to be close to him – even though she knows she will not
be welcome at Marinella’s.
