FuryLeAnn Ashers
Livie: Every time I saw him, my body betrayed me—heart hammering against my ribs, skin burning like I'd been branded. I told myself a million reasons why it couldn't happen. He was older. Dangerous. The next president of the Devil Souls MC. Men like him devour girls like me. But God, the way he looked at me... The moment I stepped into the clubhouse for my welcome home party, his eyes locked on mine across the room, and everything I'd built to protect myself crumbled. Weeks later, his hands were in my hair, his name on my lips, his mark on my soul. I thought nothing could feel better than escaping that suffocating city. I was wrong. Nothing compares to belonging to him. Greyson: I've killed men for less than looking at her the way I do. But I stayed away, watching her bloom in LA, knowing she deserved her shot at something beyond our blood-soaked world. I wanted her beneath me, wearing my ring, carrying my name—but I wanted her dreams intact first . I tracked her, followed her, and protected her without her even knowing. When she finally came home, crossing that town line, the oxygen rushed back into my lungs after years of drowning. But she didn't come alone. Someone's hunting her. Someone who doesn't understand that I'd rip this world apart, burn down heaven and hell, before letting them touch what's MINE. They won't just die. They'll beg for death long before I grant it.

Embrace ChangeLexy Timms
Sophie I'm not sure if this will break me. Being attracted to my employer isn't a smart plan, but it's not like I anticipated how endearing and oddly captivating Lance Thomas could be. Unfortunately, I'm nowhere closer to paying off Grandpa's rent or feeling confident about the singing competition I'm entering. Fortunately, I'm treated to a whole new experience of Lance doting on me, kissing me until I'm lost under his spell, and excited to play house. He's busier than usual, away for work and still obligated to prove to his mother that he will settle down and start a family soon. It almost feels like we are one, the both of us unable to keep our hands off each other and accidentally adopting the cutest puppy. Nothing seems wise about caving to our attraction, but it feels too good to resist. When he dares to ask me to come to a family party with him though, I have to wonder if my heart can handle being broken by the things that hold us apart. Lance I'm certain she could fix me. Making a move on Sophie might be my smartest decision or worst mistake, but riding it out with her more than just "fun" like she claims. Nothing has changed about my mother's mandate to grow up and settle with a wife. Unfortunately, Sophie seems like the only woman I want to be compatible with, hungry for her touches and addicted to her laughter. Fortunately, she's willing to meet me in the middle while we hide our relationship from the prying eyes of my mother and aunt. Nothing lasting can come from keeping Sophie a secret, but as I consider standing up to my mother and telling her to go ahead and cut me off, I can't ruin Sophie's chances of keeping her job. When she suggests waiting until the end of the summer, I find myself thinking about how I don't want her to go at all when she's so good at filling that missing piece in my soul.

Ten Years a WardGavin
For ten years, I secretly loved my guardian, Ethan Hayes. After my family fell apart, he took me in and raised me. He was my entire world. On my eighteenth birthday, I gathered all my courage to confess my love to him. But his reaction was a fury I had never seen before. He swept my birthday cake to the floor and roared, "Are you insane? I am your GUARDIAN!" He then mercilessly tore the painting I had spent a year on-my confession-to shreds. Just days later, he brought home his fiancée, Chloe. The man who had promised to wait for me to grow up, who called me his brightest star, had vanished. My decade of desperate, burning love had only managed to burn myself. The person who was supposed to protect me had become the one who hurt me the most. I looked down at the NYU acceptance letter in my hand. I had to leave. I had to pull him out of my heart, no matter how much it hurt. I picked up the phone and dialed my father's number. "Dad," I said, my voice hoarse, "I've decided. I want to come be with you in New York."

On my clean street. Where I’m never dirty or messy or hot. And I will. I’ll leave first thing tomorrow morning. I just want to crash on the couch tonight. Their house is dark and quiet, everyone else is asleep. Except for one. He sees me crying and comes at me from behind. I let him wrap his arms around my body and hold me tightly. His breath is on my neck, his fingers are in my hair, and he doesn’t stop there. I don’t think it was Trace.

RageLeAnn Ashers
Meadow: I was born into the Devil Souls MC. My first breath was filled with the scent of leather and exhaust. The clubhouse was my playground, the roar of engines my lullaby. My dad, all tattooes and muscles, ruled as the club's enforcer. Grandpa, with his weathered face and iron will, held court as VP. It was more than just a club; this was my family. I grew up watching the guys come and go. None of them ever caught my eye, not really. Until him. I remember that day like it was yesterday. The sun beating down, the smell of barbecue in the air. I turned, and there he was. Mason. My heart stuttered, then raced. He was older, dangerous in a way that made my skin tingle. Our eyes locked, and I swear the world stopped spinning for a second. Everyone warned me off, but that only made the pull stronger. I threw myself into school, determined to prove I was more than just an MC princess. Now I'm an OBGYN, bringing new life into the world while straddling two very different realities. And one day, when I least expected it, we came face-to-face once more.

A Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared. And honestly? I didn't mind. I'd crushed on him for years. This was my shot, right? Wrong.

Absolutely worth it. Best. Sex. Of. My. Life. And as it turns out? The best decision I ever made. Because my one-night stand isn't just some random guy. He's darker, more dangerous than I ever imagined. And now? He's not letting me go.
