I’d been burned by Theo Cirillo enough to know that I should have seen this coming. He loved to show me his merciless side, but I couldn’t stay away from the deviant even if I wanted to. A prisoner of my own making, playing a game without knowing all the rules. Until the lies he’d been telling, the secrets he’d been keeping began to unravel around us. He was only manipulating me. Using me. I was nothing more than a nut he had to crack. And he split me right open, but he’s about to get a shock, because I’m not the kind of girl to roll over and take it. I’m Emmie Ramsey.

The empire is crumbling. She didn’t believe me. Even now, she doesn’t want to. But as sirens ring out in the distance and she stares into my eyes - there is no denying it. No denying her. Or the truth. The threat is closer than we've ever imagined, and uncovering that truth is deadlier than the lies she grew up believing. We’re at our breaking point, but I’m not going down without a fight. And I’m sure as hell not going to lose her. Not after everything we’ve endured.

Forbidden never tasted so good. He’s my daddy’s best friend, and he took a huge chance on me. I wasn’t meant to thank him by falling into his bed, I was just meant to care for his twins. But my life has just imploded and he’s the only good thing I’ve got right now. She’s my best friend’s daughter. Completely off-limits and yet I simply can’t resist. I need her to look after my babies, but I want her for myself. She’s the first good thing to come into my life since my wife died.

I thought I knew pain. I thought I knew grief. I knew nothing. And nothing could compare to the moment Toby ripped my heart right out of my chest. Confirming all my worst fears. Shattering the very foundation my life has been built on. Deception is his weapon, and now I’m his victim. Rock bottom is a familiar place, and once again I’m trying to drag myself out of the pits of despair. But fate is an evil master, and before long I find myself with no other place to turn…but him. He might be cruel. Reckless. Dangerous. But I also know that he’ll do anything to right his wrongs.

She’s in the wrong place at the right time...Gunshots echo, reverberating through me, allowing me to feel something...anything other than the pain that consumes me. That should be a warning to stay away, but for some reason, she comes closer. Intruding on my silence. Sharing my darkness. Close enough for me to see the look in her eyes. It’s not fear, but desire that darkens her eyes in the moonlight. She should run. Run far away from me, but she never does. She comes close enough to touch, tempting the devil inside that wants to cause devastation for the loss I’ve suffered.

She doesn't belong here. From the moment she steps foot in Rosewood High - it's clear she must go. And I'll use my power to get rid of her. The betrayal I'm reminded of each time our eyes lock must end. She's a lost rich girl, trying to recover from the death of her parents. But none of that is my concern. This is my life. My rules. My senior year. What I say goes. And I say she's done. Until she proves me wrong....

The moment I discovered the dark truth, it descended on my life and threatened to swallow me whole. It tore at my soul, piece by piece. But I refused to go down alone. My need for vengeance pours out like a gaping wound…directed at the man I thought was my father. The one who trained me to become the monster I am. Until he’s paid the price, I’ll never truly be free. And I’ve found the perfect target. Someone he thought he could keep safe. Tucked away from the depraved world I barely survived. But I’ve found her. The innocent pawn in my twisted game.

My next-door neighbour, Jenson, is a chef and a successful businessman. He's also a single daddy to the cutest six-year-old girl. I'm only here as long as it takes to get my parents' old house ready for sale. Then it's time for me to make a fresh start, away from the tragic events of late. Trouble is, now I've had a taste of this hot daddy's sauce, I want more.

I found peace in the last place I expected, but it was a mirage built on lies and unfulfilled promises. I thought we somehow managed to find a way to co-exist in their little lair, but as usual I was wrong. The second I felt settled, a corrupt Hawk turns up and flips everything I’ve come to know—and dare to trust— on its head. Without a choice, I’m dragged out into the night by the man I vowed to obey— Maverick Murray. Taken away from the protection of the man I loved to hate— Reid Harris.

USA Today and Wall Street Journal best-selling author Tracy Lorraine brings you heart-stopping angst, hot bullies, strong heroines, delicious football players, and knee-weakening HEAs. Welcome to Rosewood High. Let the games begin. This boxset includes the following titles: Hunter, Fury, and Legend.

The night we met, she left behind a lot more than just her shoes on my bedroom floor. She left an impression. A lasting memory burned into my brain. It teases me… tortures me. Months have passed since that night. I’ve tried a million and one ways to get her out of my head. But she’s always there. Haunting me. Stealing my sinful thoughts. Fuelling my darkest desires. I warned her to stay away. But I didn’t mean it— not really. Before I can make her mine, I’ll have to find her. With nothing more than her red heels, it’s impossible.

I might have accomplished the impossible and walked back up those stairs. But I wasn’t naïve. Freedom didn’t await. Only more locked doors and nightmares. My captivity means nothing now. My hope is locked up in despair. Because just like he promised, Mav came for me. No one breaks into the Devil's manor… and lives to tell the tale.

I hated to trick her...but I knew she would never go for the real me. She was beautiful, smart and funny - everything I could want. And I was...well. Me. Tattooed, foulmouthed bad boy. I told one little white lie hoping to meet someone different. And I did. Danniella Abbot. She wasn’t who I was expecting, and I guess she could say the same, because Danni made it very clear she wasn’t interested in me or my reasons for lying. The fact that she was my best friend’s little sister only complicated an already impossible situation.

My life has been full of half truths tangled in lies—I’d been to hell and back more times than I could count. But nothing could have prepared me for the fear in her voice, and then the sight of that building going up in flames. After the way I treated her, the way I hurt her, I’d earned that pain back tenfold. I deserved to lose the only bit of light in my dark, twisted life. Neither of us have survived the suffering only to have it end this way and I refuse to believe that our time is done.

I was playing with fire. I knew that. I’m the one who lit the match. But the possibility of getting burned still wasn’t enough to stop me.

The night we met, she was just another one-night stand. We were never meant to see each other again, and my best friend certainly wasn’t supposed to go and fall in love with her best friend. Collateral damage...she’s already broken my biggest rule when we hooked up for a second, third, fourth, and maybe a few more times. She’s everywhere I turn. I can’t escape her or the things she makes me feel. Thanks to my best friend wanting to do anything to make his girl happy, she’s the newest teacher at Knight’s Ridge College.

He turned up like a ghost in the night, determined to make me scream. But he's no ghost; he's as real as the feelings I try not to have. My illusive stepbrother has everyone fooled. Except me. One look into his dark eyes and I know he's pure evil. Haunting my house...and my darkest dreams, pursuing me to prove a point and determined to make his stay as excruciating as possible. I already know I’m going to get burned but I can’t help myself, like a moth, I'm drawn to his black flame.

USA Today and Wall Street Journal best-selling author Tracy Lorraine brings you a new dark mafia, high school bully romance story set in the Knight's Ridge Empire world.

The last thing I wanted to do with my evening was get all dressed up just to allow old rich dudes to undress me with their leering eyes while I pretended to laugh at their crass jokes. The only funny thing about this situation is that it shouldn’t be me. My sister is the experienced dancer. I’m the innocent one. But with her down and our desperation at an all-time high, I didn’t have much choice. I even argued to get myself here, thanks to my guilt. How bad could it really be? Bad… worse than I expected. Eyes everywhere, hands itching to follow.

She was my best friend. The person I told my deepest secrets to. But when my world came crashing down, it was all because of her family. From that moment, I realized I’d been wrong to trust her. Her big caring eyes and sweet face were nothing but an act as she’d watched on while I tried to keep my head above water. That was our past. Now, I’ve largely put Camila behind me and moved on with my life. Though it doesn’t explain why she’s always there: Taunting me, tempting me, showing me the life I could have been living.
