When I disappeared out of Lina Guardia’s life years ago, it was for her own good. Now our paths cross again. But things are different. She’s got secrets. Dangerous ones. She thinks she can keep me out of her world, but she's in over her head and needs a protector. I just have to remember I can’t be more than that to her. I can’t give in to the temptation.

Taking her is my right. Breaking her, my duty. I was always going to choose Helena. I knew it the instant I saw her. She’s different than the others. There’s a darkness about her. Something wild inside her. And it calls to the beast inside me. But she isn’t what I expected. With every word and every touch, she pushes me, burrowing deep under my skin, challenging the rules, and upending history. And all the while, I see how my brother watches her. He wants her, and as the rules stand, she’ll become his in one year’s time. Except that I have no intention of giving her up.

I was as prepared as one could be when vanishing into the U.S. Marshal's Witness Protection Program. I just wasn't prepared for him.For ex-Navy SEAL turned mercenary Lake Freeman, escorting Lily Cross into the Witness Protection Program was just another job - until a better offer came along. Lake couldn't have cared less about the life he'd been hired to protect. After all, she was a part of the very organization that had cost him so much already. At least he never expected to care.

Olivia has spent years training to hunt and kill the dangerous savages who live outside the dome which protects her city, and she stands ready to carry out her mission with pride - until the day she is shot down and her life is changed forever.

Loyalty. Duty. Deceit. I never imagined my first trip to Italy would be to bury my father. But there I stood, alone in the ancient cathedral with my father’s casket, a handful of soldiers standing guard. It never occurred to me that anyone would disrupt the sanctity of the moment. But the Caballero brothers have little regard for the church and even less for my family. They marched in, weapons in hand, and turned my world upside down.

My reasons for keeping Blue are… complicated. I see the scars she hides. The secrets she keeps. I want to collect all the broken pieces of her. When she runs, I go after her. I will always go after her. Her enemies are closing in faster than she can run. I vow to keep her safe, but my protection comes at a price. She’ll belong to me in every way. When she is taken from me, I hunt down her abductor and give in to my rage. I spill blood for her. I’d do it again. But the game turns deadly when some of the most powerful men of The Society attack.

She calls it a devil’s bargain. I call it a deal she can’t refuse. I was owed a debt and I expected payment. That payment? One night in my bed. My rules. The debt cleared, and she could walk away. There are worse things. And besides, debtors can’t be choosers. The night started as it should. She obeyed as she should. But then something happened. Something I was unprepared for. And what I saw changed everything. I broke my own rules after that.

When I tried to blackmail Ezekiel St. James, I thought it would be easy. Turns out I had no idea who I was dealing with. Turns out I had no idea who I was dealing with. The moment his steel-grey eyes locked on mine, I knew the game was over. He knew exactly who I was. What I’d done. And he wasn’t going to let me walk away. With his immense wealth and power, he had me kidnapped. He could make me disappear. I’m no easy prey, though, and it’s not just my life on the line. I have to protect my sister.

Du kannst ihn nicht heiraten, wenn du schon mit mir verheiratet bist.So machte mir Silas Cruz einen Heiratsantrag–wobei es eigentlich mehr eine Forderung war. Er ließ mir nicht wirklich eine Wahl. Er ist dunkel, eifersüchtig und unglaublich besitzergreifend.Und er ist nur einer der Bösewichte in meiner Geschichte. Und ich dachte immer, er wäre mein Held. Doch eines weiß ich ganz genau–wann immer ich ihn brauche, wann immer ich in Gefahr bin, kommt er, um mich zu retten. Das bewies er wieder und wieder.

Stefan Sabbioni stand an meinem sechzehnten Geburtstag uneingeladen in meinem Schlafzimmer. Er verbarg sich im Schatten, roch nach Whiskey und Tod und legte mir eine zerbrochene, blutverkrustete Halskette um den Hals. Ich dachte, er würde mich damit erdrosseln. In dieser Nacht hinterließ er eine Nachricht für meinen Vater. Er sagte, er käme zurück, um etwas Wertvolles mitzunehmen.

I live in a world where secrecy reigns—a society rooted in power, wealth, and long-held dynasties, where men are kings, and women are pawns. For as long as I can remember, I’ve dreamt of escaping the shackles of my expectations, but it can only ever be a dream. I made a fatal mistake, and those shackles became a cage. Now, I’m trapped in a war with a man who controls my every move. He’s my brother’s best friend. My enemy, my tormentor, and my solace. His words have the power to wound me. His touch just might break me.

When Cristiano Grigori came for me, he didn’t come alone. He brought his army to kill the soldiers at my door and took me for himself. He put his ring on my finger and marked me as mafia property. His property. Cristiano is my enemy. He’s also the only man with whom I’ve ever felt safe. Protected. But I have to remember that he married me with one purpose in mind—revenge. I would be the bridge to his real enemies. I can’t let myself forget that he isn’t the hero of this story. His hands are covered in blood. I saw that with my own eyes.

Just when I was beginning to trust my husband, he betrayed me. Just when I thought I was falling in love he showed me the beast he truly is. I understand his thirst for revenge. But I don’t want to play this game of pawn and puppet master....

Jericho St. James hates my family. Powerful, wealthy beyond belief, he's the most dangerous man I know. And I belong to him. He’s taken me from my home. He'll make me his wife. And he’s made it very clear I’ll be sleeping in his bed. But my beast has a secret. His one weakness. One that makes hating him impossible. He has a daughter. And he’ll do anything to keep her safe.

Santiago finally has what he wants. His baby is growing inside me. I’ve rewritten her destiny, binding her to me for good. Things are changing for us. I see beyond the monster he shows the world. See the scars he hides beneath the ink. ILove is a weakness men like me can’t afford. I’ve decided to keep her, but I’ll never forfeit my revenge.

My husband hates me. But he’s also the only man who can save me. Taken by a stranger, Santiago is my only hope. Except that I don’t know if he’s dead or alive. And for as cruel as he can be, the thought he might be gone is unbearable. But he has nine lives, my monster. He’s not finished with me yet. And soon I’m back at The Manor. Locked in my room. At his mercy. I know I am despised. I know I have become the face of his vengeance. But there’s something else, too. Something between us. It’s a dark and gnarled thing. And it has its claws around my heart.

Es begann alles mit einem Vertrag, der erst von ihm, dann von mir unterzeichnet wurde, während unsere Familien zusahen. Mein Vater saß daneben, ein besiegter Mann, der seine Tochter den Benedetto-Monstern gab. Ich gehorchte. Ich spielte meine Rolle. Ich unterschrieb und verlor meine Freiheit. Ich wurde zu ihrer lebenden, atmenden Trophäe, einem Symbol ihrer Macht über uns.

Ich bin die Tochter eines einfachen Mafioso. Die Schwester eines Spitzels. So lange ich mich erinnern kann, waren Monster ein Teil meines Lebens gewesen. Aber an dem Morgen, als ich in dieser kalten, verlassenen Hütte aufwache und Domenico auf mich herabblickt, weiß ich, dass ich das schrecklichste aller Monster getroffen habe. Er ließ mich herbringen, um mich zu brechen. Aber das ist nicht so einfach. Und sobald er das Zeichen auf meiner Haut sieht, ändert sich alles.
