The first time we spoke he tried to bribe me, and I called his bluff. That became friendship … then first loves. I steal his heart. He steals mine. But we keep that our secret, hidden in fear of ruining our friendship. Until one night, we cross a line. I have secrets I never want him to know. But he won’t allow me to push him away. He’s ready to become more than friends, but will that change when he learns what I’ve done?

There are many reasons I should have handed in my resignation the day I met my new boss, Hudson Case. First off, he's the reason I lost my first waitressing job. Secondly, he's gruff, grumpy, and another inconvenient g-word... gorgeous. And to top it off, he's my good friend's dad. Oh, and did I mention, he's also my new roommate? Yeah, we'll get to that in a sec. It all started when I begged my friend to get me a temp position working as her dad's admin until my big move at the end of summer. Little did I know, her dad was the same jerk who callously fired me from my previous waitressing gig.

King Larels made a catastrophic error by bringing an army to a Terraformer fight, resulting in his swift defeat by a Castillion Shard and a rapid return to respawn via the mile-long express route. While Hearthmire celebrated an unexpected victory, Exium grappled with the heavy toll of the battle, including the irreplaceable loss of numerous lives and Tialha's sacrifice to ensure he could continue the fight.

I never ran from my past or the only woman I ever loved. She made sure to stomp me into the ground and demand I forget all about her. I tried to do just that, and in the twelve years since she ripped my heart out, I've done fairly well. Sometimes I could even go a day or two without thinking of her. We were never supposed to see each other again, but Grace Neiman just couldn't stay gone. She couldn't stay in my past where she put herself. Facing her again after she was abducted and sold was going to be the toughest challenge of my life.

I wouldn't call it love at first sight, but my body definitely reacted when I saw her. Getting Faith Robbins under me became my obsession. I knew I wanted fast and done. It's how I always did things. Looking for anything more with a woman was never in the cards. I wasn't like the other guys in the Cerberus MC. I didn't want more. It was physical, sating a desire. Then someone began to seek revenge, and my other instincts kicked in. Spending time with her was about protecting her, keeping her safe.

The first time we met, I was rescuing her from a cult. The second time I laid eyes on her was when she showed up at Cerberus with a secret, asking me for an unthinkable favor. What she was offering was something I never thought I could have, so I readily agreed. I wanted more than just her secret, though. How can I convince my wife to fall in love with me when someone else is threatening to take it all away?

They call it "the Event"—an unimaginable cataclysm that renders 600 million years of the world's timeline into jumbled fragments. Our Earth is gone, instantly replaced by a new one made of fractured remnants of the past, present, and future. All exist alongside one another in a nightmare patchwork of "time shards". With surprising help from throughout history, an American girl and her companions first must save ancient Alexandria, the last bastion of civilization, from a panzer tank invasion. Then they will face the ultimate challenge at the end of the world . . . the shatterfield.

Fake relationships have no place in an adult's life. Until they do. It was one kiss. One trick to convince her ex she's in a happy relationship. One kiss is all it took. Captivated isn't a strong enough word. Haunted is a little closer. Obsessed fits the bill. I'm obsessed with Reagan Dunn. Only Reagan isn't looking for that happy relationship. Until she needs me to pretend again. Pretending is perfect. Pretending gets me closer. It gives me the opportunity to prove that we are the perfect combination. 

Reeling from Cassiel's confession, Dyna struggles to understand what the Blood Bond means for them both, all the while trying to stay one step ahead of a new found enemy. When reuniting with a familiar sorceress, she realizes the only way to defeat Tarn is to find her Guardians—all of them. Cassiel never meant to tie himself to a human, especially one that inexplicably draws him. But then the bond develops a startling change and puts into question everything he thought he knew. Zev straddles the line between human and wolf, unsure if his dark thoughts truly belong to the Madness.

As a child, I believed Christmas wishes were supposed to come true. As an adult, I realized making those wishes was pointless. As an original member of the Cerberus MC, I knew hard work and determination are what brought a good outcome, so I stopped making wishes. I didn't ask for Lucy or her son Harley, but when having them became a reality, I knew I needed to hold on tight. Her past makes her decisions for her, and letting them go will be the hardest thing I'll ever do.

Some might call Bennett Brady a hero, but he was only doing his job. Fighting fires and rescuing people was dangerous, but that's what he did. He never failed to save the day, until the day he failed Marin Landry. Her boyfriend died in a fire Ben was called to, and he was unable to save him.

Falling for a girl I just met was never in my plans. We had one night together, and most days I convince myself that she was an apparition - something I made up in my mind to get me through the hard days. Then I found her again. Only she wasn't happy and smiling, giving me a hard time like she did the day we met. She was broken...unseeing eyes no longer filled with life. She was gone because of another person's disregard for human life.

Outwardly, my life was rocking. As a sportscaster at ESPN, I've traveled the world, attending the most prestigious sporting events, and meeting all sorts of famous people. I have great friends, and women whenever I want them, but I miss the little girl I helped raise and still adore. My heart was broken when my best friend came back to step in as her dad, but at least my career was on the uptick. That was until Missy Ellington sailed into my network intent on stealing the promotion I was counting on. 

Cashel Blackthorne took me captive. I hated him. I wanted him. I fell for him. Then everything I knew changed. I got away from the Blackthorne vampires, but they still want my blood. Living a nomadic life with a band of hunters, I learned how to fight and how to defend myself. Now, I'm torn between the deep feelings I've developed for my captor and the new attraction I have for Logan, the rugged hunter who came for me. Cashel Blackthorne may have taken my heart, but he also taught me a lesson.... Never trust a vampire.

I lost the one person who gave my life meaning and purpose. My love. My soul. My only reason for breathing. Unwilling to bury her memory, my heart turned reckless and my soul darkened. Then she walked into my life. It was only supposed to be a moment. Just one. A moment where I could get lost in someone else and forget my pain. In that one moment, she saved me from the memories that found me in the dark. She tore my world apart. Wrecked me. And with one kiss, she changed everything. Her love became my dark paradise.
