Over a peanut butter and jelly sandwich in the second grade, I gave Wren Tyler my heart. I never wanted it back, even when time, distance, and fate kept us apart—because even as a kid, I knew I'd love that girl forever. It’s not until years later that we finally have a chance to be together. Finally. I’ve waited patiently through every obstacle and impossibility, and nothing is going to mess up my chance at a future with Wren. Unfortunately, my vengeful ex-fiancée has other plans.

Flighty. Stupid. That’s what my sisters think of me. I’m tired of being misunderstood. With a suitcase in hand and the ocean as my beacon, I’m charting my own path. Yet, barely a day on the road, I almost crash and burn. Running into Silas Palmer, a sexy-as-sin rock star, changes my life. Silas makes me feel...exceptional. Aimless. He’s always known his course. And even now, when he’s abandoning fame and fortune, he knows what he wants.

My life is a cliché. Rags to riches. A bad boy rock star. Everyone loves me. On the outside, it looks like I have it all but nothing is further from the truth. I died at 18. Lost the only thing I ever wanted. Her. At rock bottom, music becomes my life support and sometimes, it isn’t enough. Then, out of nowhere, she shows up. A crash cart to my near-still heart. Reunited, we struggle with the realization that the past is littered with lies and betrayal.

I’m one of Toronto’s most eligible bachelors and CEO of Rothwell Enterprises. I wear success like a well-tailored suit, but that doesn’t mean I’m not at the mercy of others. My heavily guarded trust fund is all I need to take my business to new heights. But to get my hands on that money, I have only two options: Wait 'til I’m 40 or get married.

Pippa just showed up uninvited with plans of staying the weekend. I can hardly handle an hour with her, let alone two days. Despite more than a year of dodging her, nothing has changed. She’s the only woman I want. Smart and sexy and bold. My best friend’s little sister. Forbidden. Denying my desire for her is torture. And she doesn’t make it easy. She wants me, too. The thing is, making her mine means ruining my best friend.

Money is my mistress. Solving problems, my trade. Until the tables turn, and trouble finds me. Now on the run, I need a plan. But not before I’m blindsided by a pain-in-the-ass stranger. Maggie. Curves, startling blue eyes, and she hates me. I don’t trust her, and with good reason. My plan is simple: use her. Then I kiss her. Touch her. Crave her. She was my way out; now she’s my downfall.

I don’t know why I care about her; she’s a stranger. But something in her striking green eyes draws me in. She’s caught in a web of secrets and lies. A ruthless killer hunts her. He’ll stop at nothing to have her. And neither will I. Together, on the run, our connection grows stronger. I’m not a man who falls easily, yet Cora has me on my knees. We’re opposites in every way. Evil always finds me. I’m a dangerous man and wrote off love long ago. Still, my darkness craves her sunshine. I’m no white knight, but Cora makes me want to be one.

One date with the wrong man is all it takes to open my eyes. I’m in love with Grayson Bennett. My best friend. My confidant. My protector. The man who treats my son like his own. Friendship is no longer enough. I want more. More of him. More of us. More of...everything. And Gray wants the same. He calls me his everything.

My life has been destroyed by two men. One, my hero. The other, my worst nightmare. I taste the bitterness of betrayal every day as my body bleeds, suffering the touch of my enemy. It’s a fate chosen for me by others and it’s not something I can escape. At least, not yet. I’m determined to survive, my need for vengeance feeding me. I’ll play this game until every piece is in place so I can break them all.

My life is falling apart. Fired from my job. Blacklisted across NYC. At odds with my mother. The only thing good I have to hold on to is the memory of my steamy one-night stand. Only I had no idea who Eli was…or that I’d end up working on his movie set. The spark between us threatens to reignite every time we’re near each other. But Eli wants more than just hot sex. He has a daughter and wants a partner in life. I’m seeking answers about my past and trying to plan my future. Commitment is the last thing I want. Yet I’m unable to resist his pull and his passion.

I learned the hard way that there are no happy endings in life. I lost everyone I cared for, and now, I’m nothing but a hardened man. My job is the only thing that helps me forget the emptiness. It’s constantly on the verge of swallowing me whole. Then, unexpected news sends me in a tailspin. At the same time, my past walks back into my life with clicking heels and a feisty attitude.

She’s too smart, too pretty, and too good for a thug like me. Caro Archer loved me once, then left me in the wreckage. Now, she’s back with danger on her heels and my heart in her hands. Her safety should be my top priority. Only, Caro has other plans.

I’m a wanderer with no roots and no future. She’s a nurturer with dreams of a home filled with family. We never stood a chance. Or at least that’s what I tell myself. I left her. No note. No call. No explanation. It had to be like that—the only way to keep her safe. Until danger drags me back into town and my worst fear comes true. Willow’s life is in the hands of a ruthless bully. While we race to uncover my family’s deadly secrets and end the threat, her distrust eats at me. Determined to do everything in my power to protect her, I’m forced to face a bitter truth.

I’m locked in a gymnasium with Oliver Winslow—the only man I’ve ever loved. Sounds like a dream come true. But it’s not. The man is hot as hell with the biggest heart, but the kicker—he isn’t mine. One truth is heart-wrenchingly obvious. Unrequited love sucks.

All my life I’ve been keeping score and living by the rules. Play it safe. Stay out of trouble. Hide who you really are. To win, I go unnoticed and it’s working. Until my predictable, virginal life comes under attack. Worst of all, I’m the threat. An escape to the cottage is the answer. Only, I’m not alone. Matthew Carruthers is here. Pro football player.

I’m used to living a lonely, isolated life. I’m nothing more than a dirty little secret, and a pawn used in a twisted game of power.
