Axel betrayed me. As hard as I tried to keep him out of my heart, he broke through it like shattered glass. Even though my father didn't approve and our relationship would always be a secret, I didn't care. He was worth it...until he wasn't. Six months have passed, and that's exactly how long it's taken me to get over what he's done. I never see him at my father's estate. My father never mentions him. Like he never existed at all, he's wiped from the face of the earth. Until my father tells me he's going to stab Axel in the back and replace him with someone new. I know what a mistake that will be, but my warning falls on deaf ears. We finally come face to face for the first time. His ingenious plan knocks my father off his feet and he takes the business for his own. If my father wants it back, it's going to come at a price. A price that he won't have to pay--but I will. And that's to marry him.

I want a divorce. I told my husband that I loved him, and his coping mechanism was to bed someone else. I grabbed my belongings and left the place I once called home. The only thing I left behind was the divorce papers-awaiting his signature. Instead of adding his signature and dissolving this marriage as quickly as possible, he fights for me. Asks for forgiveness. Asks for another chance. Despite all my rejections, he keeps trying, and every time he tries it kills me...because I still love him. He hasn't worn his ring since our wedding day, but he slips it on and makes his proposal. "We only married because we had to. Let's marry because we want to." He slips the black ring onto his left hand and tightens his fingers into a fist. He repeats his wedding vows-and this time he means them. Should I marry this man-again?

I betrayed my husband-and I don't regret it. I interfered in his father's revenge, but the death of two innocent women was intolerable. I pissed off my father-in-law and destroyed my husband's trust. He asked for a divorce-but thankfully revoked it. The relationship we built is gone-and now we have to start over. Now his walls are higher than ever before. He spends the night with his mistresses instead of sleeping with me. There's so much distance between us, even when we're seated together at the dinner table. All the affection I earned from him is gone. This estrangement only deepens my feelings, because now I realize exactly what I lost. I'm not interested in a business relationship or a bodyguard.

Ich wollte gehen, aber Grave zwang mich zu bleiben. Er ist von mir besessen, und zwar nicht auf die gute Art und Weise. Griffin mag sich zur Ruhe gesetzt haben, aber er gibt mir eine Information, die mir die Freiheit bringen könnte. "Es gibt nur einen Kerl, vor dem Grave Angst hat. Wenn du ihn tot sehen willst, schlage ich vor, dass du dich mit ihm verbündest." "Wer ist der Kerl?", frage ich. "Cauldron Beaufort. Aber das hast du nicht von mir gehört." Ich reise nach Cap-Ferrat in Südfrankreich und finde diesen mächtigen Mann. Aber er ist nicht im Geringsten daran interessiert, mir zu helfen. Zumindest nicht umsonst. Wenn ich seinen Schutz will, muss für ihn etwas dabei herausspringen. Starker Alpha. Freche Heldin. Dunkle Romanze. Und jede Menge Hitze!

I knew a relationship with Cauldron wouldn't be easy. But I underestimated just how challenging it would be. How can you love someone that refuses to love you back? How can you love someone that betrays you not once, but twice?

Quand j'ai voulu partir, Grave m'a forcée à rester. Il est obsédé par moi, et pas de la bonne façon. Griffin s'est retiré, mais il m'a donné une information qui peut me délivrer.- Grave ne craint qu'un seul type. Si tu veux sa mort, je te suggère de former une alliance.- Qui donc ? je demande.- Cauldron Beaufort. Mais ce n'est pas moi qui te l'aie dit.Je me rends à Cap-Ferrat, dans le sud de la France, et je trouve cet homme puissant.Mais il ne m'aidera pas.Du moins, pas gratuitement.Si je veux sa protection, je vais devoir la gagner. Un enfoiré alpha comme héros. Une femme culottée comme héroïne. Une Dark Romance torride à souhait.

Pendant des mois, j'ai cru que Cauldron était la solution à tous mes problèmes. Mais non. Aujourd'hui, il est devenu mon plus gros problème.

Cet homme est le seul rempart qui me protège.Le seul être qui donne un sens à ma vie.Mais je sais que mon démon reviendra...Je sais qu'il m'attend quelque part, dehors.Et à moins que Benton l'élimine, je serai toujours en danger.

With Roan out of the picture, I've taken Croatia and eastern Europe. Now it's time I take Italy as well. I just need to get rid of the Skull King. What better way to accomplish that than by using his daughter against him -- who happens to live right here in Paris. But my problem goes south the second I lay eyes on her. She's the perfect solution to all my troubles. All I have to do is put a knife to her throat to get what I want. The Skull King will cave. Italy will be mine. But that's the last thing I want to do. What I really want to do is make her mine. Who says I can't have both? At least until she finds out the truth...

Depuis que Roan a été éliminé de la scène, j'ai pris la Croatie et l'Europe de l'Est. Maintenant, le moment est venu de prendre l'Italie aussi.Je dois seulement me débarrasser du Skull King.Quelle meilleure façon d'y parvenir que d'utiliser sa fille contre lui - et il se trouve qu'elle vit juste ici, à Paris.Mais mon stratagème tombe à l'eau dès que je pose les yeux sur elle.Elle est la solution parfaite à tous mes problèmes. Je n'ai qu'à lui mettre un couteau sous la gorge pour obtenir ce que je veux. Le Skull King cédera. L'Italie sera à moi.Mais je ne veux surtout pas faire ça.Ce que je veux vraiment est de la faire mienne.Qui a dit que je ne peux pas avoir les deux ?Du moins, jusqu'à ce qu'elle découvre la vérité...

I've never released a prisoner-except Catalina. I kidnapped her as a ploy against my enemies. The plan was to kill her to torture Damien. But the second she opened her mouth and unleashed her fire, I lost sight of all that. I never sympathized with my victims to make their deaths easier, but she forced me to more than sympathize with her. Even though she would tell Damien what I did and he would come after me, I still let her go. I suspect I'll never see her again, but six weeks later, I spot her in a bar. She's exactly the same woman I remember and has a man by the balls-literally. He made the mistake of grabbing her to get his attention, so she returned the favor-with claws. I could walk out and forget I ever saw her, but now I'm too intrigued to walk away. Our conversation only makes my intrigue worse. The woman should be terrified of me, but she's an even bigger spitfire than before. Sassy. Unapologetic. Confident. I already picked up a woman for the night, but now Catalina is all I can think about. The obsession is both instantaneous and inexplicable. I ask her to give me a chance-and won't take no for an answer. Pick up your copy now by clicking the BUY NOW button at the top of this page. It's also available for FREE in Kindle Unlimited.

I've fallen for my own tricks. My plan to soften Crewe Donahue seems to be working, because he's shown me a new side to him. He's more than just the authoritative businessman with illegal dealings. He's more than just the closeted criminal. He's kind, thoughtful...and good to me. If I can make this plan work, I know he'll let me go. But I didn't expect to be a victim in my own plot. Instead of making Crewe care about me, I've grown as attached to him. Instead of being a prisoner, I'm the woman in his bed. Instead of meaning nothing to him, I've become his confidant. I may have fooled him, but his business partner Ariel sees right through my scheme-and I'm afraid she'll blow my cover. If she does-he'll kill me. I felt nothing for this man when I first arrived, but now he's become so much more. Joseph and I have a plan to earn my freedom-and I think my brother has even more sinister intents. If I try to call it off, my brother will never forgive me. But if I go through with it...I'll lose Crewe. How do I choose?

Till Death Do Us Part. My father has a lot of enemies, and after his terminal diagnosis, he has to marry me off to someone powerful enough to protect me after he's gone. He chooses Maverick De Ville-a man that terrifies me. Rich and handsome, he doesn't need an arranged marriage, but he does need something from my father-and marrying me is the only way to get it. We equally detest the situation-but there's no other option. He's not what I pictured for my husband. He's cold, calloused, and cruel. He rules his men with an iron first. He says very little, especially to me. But he's made one thing very clear. "When people look into the darkness, they see shadows, but I see monsters. And I kill the monsters that hunt my sheep." His job is to protect me-and he does that very well. But the longer I spend time with this enigmatic man...the more I like him. My wellbeing is his first priority, and he supports me in every way imaginable. He's the foundation where I stand. He's the eyes in the back of my head. The wolf that protects me. And then he becomes the man in my bed... We agreed this was a business arrangement with no emotional attachment and he's committed to upholding those terms. I thought feeling nothing for my husband would be easy, but I find myself falling for him with every passing day. Now I want something more than a marriage. I want love.

Crewe almost died-because of me. I told Joseph to abort the plan, but he went through with it anyway, shooting Crewe right in the chest and leaving him to die. My world crashed around me and I had no other choice but to run. I half-expected him to come for me in New York, but he never did. It's been a month since we parted, and I've returned to my old life in the city. I go to work, go on dates, live the life that was taken from me...but something is missing. The pain in my chest gets worse, not better, and I can't stop thinking about the man I left behind. The longing becomes so intense that I hop on a plane and cross the world to wind up on his doorstep, face to face with the fury in his stare. It's obvious I have no chance to get him back-but I try anyway. "You shouldn't have come here." His affectionate stare is replaced by a look of hatred. There's a small tremor in his arms, like it's taking all his strength not to reach out and snap my neck in his big hands. "Congratulations-you fooled me. You made me love you in a way I've never loved a woman all my life. Your deceit has earned your freedom-so go enjoy it." It's the moment where I should walk away, but I can't. I can't leave without fighting for this man-the man I love. Pick up your copy now by clicking the BUY NOW button at the top of this page. It's also available for FREE in Kindle Unlimited.

I'm only marrying him because I have no other choice. I have no other choice if I want to keep the Tuscan Rose, but it's a heavy price to pay. Hades is a spiteful man, and I know making me his wife is his form of revenge. When he asked me to marry him before, I said no-and he's never accepted that answer. He wants to make me his-and remind me of his ownership every single day. I know what his endgame is-to make me fall in love with him. He wants me wrapped around his finger. Pinned under his thumb. Wants me to melt every time he calls me sweetheart. He's determined to make me feel the way he did before I broke his heart. But I watched my father destroy my mother with his affairs. She says she doesn't care, but she has no other choice but not to care. I'm used to seeing men with their mistresses at the Tuscan Rose, used to seeing my father's associates out at restaurants with women that aren't their wives. I refuse to give any man my heart...and watch him break it. But then he tells me what I want to hear. "I finally have the woman I want. You think someone else could ever turn my head? I'm sorry that your father betrayed your mother, but when I promised you my fidelity, I meant it. I'm your husband-now trust me." "How can I trust you when you only married me to hurt me?" He stares with that powerful intensity, dark eyes boring into mine with ruthless ownership. Then there's a glimmer of softness, so slight it was nearly impossible to see. "That's not the only reason." Pick up your copy now by clicking the BUY NOW button at the top of this page. It's also available for FREE in Kindle Unlimited.

My father, my own flesh and blood, would have killed me to get what he wanted. I've made a horrible mistake...and I can't take it back. I assumed Bartholomew was the dangerous one, when in fact, he's the only one that actually cares about me. Apologies are useless. I can't beg or plead. Nothing will change his mind. Not after what I did.

Ich wusste, dass eine Beziehung mit Cauldron nicht einfach sein würde. Aber ich hatte unterschätzt, wie schwierig sie sein könnte. Wie kann man jemanden lieben, der sich weigert, diese Liebe zu erwidern? Wie kann man jemanden lieben, der einen nicht nur einmal, sondern zweimal verrät?

I don't keep secrets from her-except for one. This was supposed to be a meaningless fling with an expiration date, but once she betrayed her brother for me, I knew it was more. I've been in this relationship for the long haul since I first kissed her, so I'm glad she finally admits that what I've already known-that she's crazy about me. But our commitment makes everything more complicated, complicated because of the secret I hide. I hate the deception, but if I tell her that I almost killed her father, our relationship will be dead and buried. That kind of forgiveness can't be earned. I fall hard for this woman-and I watch her fall even harder for me. Our passionate nights turn into an inferno of desire and I know there's no other woman for me. My brother settled down when he found the right woman-and I know the same has happened to me. I hope it'll be enough to make her stay...once she knows the truth.
