Ben: Lexa calms the rage that I've struggled with my entire life. I couldn't care less who her father is. Nothing matters but making her mine. Because my broken beauty is where my salvation begins. Contains mature themes.

Vengeance was something I'd been waiting all my life to deliver. It would be sweet and worth every risk I'd taken to get to this point. I was moments away from pulling the trigger, taking the life of the man who'd cost my father his . . . And then she was dragged into the room, struggling and fighting for freedom. The moment I set eyes on Tavia, everything changed. Those darker than espresso eyes were full of fear, her mouth so ripe that had once begged me to devour it trembling in fright. She looked up at me through a curtain of thick, long lashes and gasped. "Theo," she whispered, her voice cracking as those eyes I'd fallen hard for filled with tears. "Help me." It was then I realized my Tavia was also his. My enemy's daughter. Contains mature themes.

One night. That was all we had, all we needed. Mila: It was a chance meeting in a New York City club while I was in town for a wedding. Our paths were never going to cross again. But I lied. One night wasn't enough. Lyric: New York City was my dream. Work for the best tattoo artist in the country, build up my own client list, then start my own ink shop wherever I wanted. Then I met Mila. One night. That was what we agreed. But even as I was telling her goodbye, I was already planning our forever. Contains mature themes.

Monroe I have a secret. One that will get the man I've been crushing on for years killed if my father ever finds out. My sister says he's a stalker-how else could he know exactly when I'm in trouble and come to rescue me? I don't care. He's saved me over and over again, so I know he doesn't want to harm me. And every time I get so much as a glimpse of him, my heart becomes even more his. Gian Everyone who hears my name instantly thinks I'm a monster. They don't know the real me. The one who hated the men who tried to make me just as evil as them. All I wanted was to burn their empire to the ground. Until I saw her. My precious one. Her family thinks I wanted to hurt her when all I want is to protect her. The scars of my past aren't pretty. They shroud me like a dark cloak, making me feel like the devil I've been cast as. It would taint her sweetness if I let them touch her. But when she disappears on me, I can't hold back any longer. Contains mature themes.

Sometimes, beauty covers a whole lot of ugly. That was one of the many valuable lessons I learned the summer I lived in Creswell Springs with the Angel's Halo MC. They taught me about responsibility and respect-not just for others, but, more importantly, for myself. I liked to think I came home a better person. Someone who wasn't just pretty on the outside anymore. And then I met Zak. Golden eyes. Chiseled jaw. That deep, gravelly voice mixed with a slight Russian accent that did something to me no man ever had before. The way he looked at me, I didn't just feel beautiful-I felt powerful. Before I knew it, I'd fallen for him. My heart was in his hands. But did he want to cherish it . . . or crush it? Contains mature themes.

One vow made as kids. But could it last forever? We belonged to each other. Now and always. He slid that promise ring on my finger and made me his for the first time. But we had to keep it a secret from our fathers. Because mine would murder him, and his would help bury the body if they found out. Now, we don't have to keep the secret any longer. We just have to tell the dads . . . Unfortunately, that isn't our only obstacle. Contains mature themes.

The beautiful, ethereal creature ran across the road on my way home one night. I nearly hit her and ended up wiping out in the process. A little dazed, I ran after her . . . And found her in the woods. Dirty and cold from living on the streets for weeks-but still so breathtaking, I was sure I was dreaming her. Delaney is deaf, scared, and on the run from her uncle. But now that I've found her, I won't let anything hurt her ever again. She makes me feel something I've never felt before. This tightness in my chest causes the beast within me to snarl unless she's beside me. She becomes my obsession, my reason to get out of bed in the morning. She makes me want to be . . . better. For her. I'm never letting this girl go. No matter who tries to take her from me. Contains mature themes.

He calls me his heart. Tells me the only reason he closes his eyes at night is so he can see me in his dreams. Our months apart are torture for both of us, but at least I get to hear his voice every day. Each summer, he's all mine. Every minute he can spare, I'm right beside him, and our families just smile knowingly. Ryan has responsibilities, though. One day, my mafioso prince will be the king. And I will be his queen . . . Then my brother runs into trouble, and I'm taken as collateral. But the enemy doesn't realize that my brother isn't the one they should worry about. Because, without me, Ryan is heartless. And soon, they will all see what vengeance a heartless savage will wreak. Contains mature themes.

Bain Destroy the Vitucci family from the inside out. Break them as they had broken our great-grandmother. That was the plan. Then I set eyes on Ciana Donati. The moment she appeared before me, everything changed. Sheena might think that I was her loyal soldier, but I was the one she should fear. Ciana All I wanted was a little time away from the craziness that was my life as a Vitucci princess. I promised to be on my best behavior if they would just let me go on vacation, and I meant to keep that promise. Then I saw the sexy stranger on his balcony next door, and my entire world shifted. I didn't plan to fall for him, but as we shared bottles of wine and our darkest secrets under the stars each night, I gave him my heart. Never once imagining it was all part of his plan to use me to hurt the person I loved most. Heartbroken, I returned home, determined to forget the biggest mistake of my life. But I brought a lot more with me than just a shattered heart. Contains mature themes.

We had plans. Until we didn't. His entire life revolved around baseball, and even the part he wanted me to play in it was to help him succeed. Crap happens. Plans change, and life goes on. Sure, I'm bored out of my mind at times-boring job, boring dates... boring life. But I'm over Nolan Krenshaw. At least... I've tried to move on and get over him. When Nolan's career is suddenly on the line, I'm the one he turns to. I tell myself the only reason I'm helping him is so I can officially put him behind me. Of course, it's a lie. He was all I ever wanted, until he broke my heart. This time, I'm not stupid enough to believe that he would ever put me first. Contains mature themes.

Some go through their entire lives without an arch-nemesis. I had two. The first one was my stepbrother, Manuel. His goal was to beat me into submission, until I was nothing more than a cowering wraith. Luckily, I had a guardian angel who saved me. The second was none other than my angel's brother, Garret Hannigan. In my teens, I'd had a crush on him, and I'd even fantasized about him saving me from Manuel. Until I saw the disgusting and scary things he wrote, and that crush faded fast. Now, I have a new life, a new identity. My goal had been to stay under the radar until I could carry out the revenge on Manuel I'd been dreaming of. Then Garret Hannigan sits down in front of me at work and orders a drink. Looking into those green eyes of his, I realized the ghost of my crush still lingered. I should have exorcised those feelings that first night. Instead, every time he walks into the club and sits in my section, not even bothering to look at the girls on the stage, those feelings only seem to grow. But there's a problem. Garret doesn't appear to know who I am. For the first time in my life, I'm happy... but what will happen when I tell him who I really am. Contains mature themes.

Jack I'm the quiet one. The one everyone respects . . . but secretly fears. They should. I've seen the darkness in the world-and it has slowly bled into me until not even a glimmer of light remains. The women who come to Sanctuary are in need of someone to rescue them. It's my job to protect them. To send the monsters who terrorize them back into the abyss they slithered out of. Everyone thinks Max is the crazy MC brother. But they haven't seen what I'm capable of when it comes to protecting those too weak to protect themselves. Then she was dropped at Sanctuary's doorstep. Broken. Bleeding. Alone. When she looked up at me with fear in her pretty eyes, I knew the darkness hadn't completely taken hold of me. I still had a little bit of humanity left. And it was all hers. Contains mature themes.

Samara I'm more like my brother than anyone knows. I knew who was meant to be mine as soon as I was old enough to understand what the definition of "want" was. Some would say it is an obsession. They may even whisper that I am... crazy. But when I set my mind on something, I don't stop until I have it. And what I want is him. Elias Reid. No one knows how twisted my mind has turned for him. How tangled up my heart has gotten over the older, sexy biker. My plans are in place. Every step is precisely executed. I have been playing the long game, and now, he is within my grasp. The life we are meant to have together is so close. I just need him to surrender to the inevitable. Contains mature themes.
