I was done with love. My acrimonious break up with my ex-wife, Alexa, had seen to that.

As the son of an earl, I knew I’d have to remarry one day and have a male child to carry on the family name. But next time I won't be caught up with ridiculous feelings.

I lured and tricked Tig into a random hookup on social media. He has no clue he’s anything but random to me. He has no clue we’ll play by my rules.

I am a woman-empowering French influencer, and I’ll teach the once famous tattoo artist a lesson.

And that includes making a stand to win back the woman he needs. His only choice is to fight hard for what - and who - he loves. And oh so dirty.

Lila Shawcross is obsessed with her work, which includes managing the drama-prone members of Oblivion.

Yet, I couldn’t turn away from her mesmerizing green eyes.

I was pulled into the Locke life when my roommate got involved with one of the dangerous brothers. I should have left, should have minded my own business, but the attraction I feel for Ace is stronger than I can ignore. I can feel the way he watches me. The ownership I feel from him, the possessiveness and obsession, lets me know he wants me too. But common sense tells me I don’t want this in my life, don’t want to let a Locke brother mark me as his. But that reality isn’t what my heart wants, isn’t what my body craves.
