Cara Carelli is a silver-tongued mafia princess, master manipulator, and the only woman I've ever loved. But she's also smokin' hot and my ex-wife. When Cara led me straight into a trap and pleaded for my help, I couldn't say no. She thought she had the upper hand, but this time, I was in control and planned to make her beg. They say all's fair in love and war and turnabout's fair play, but what starts out as a wickedly seductive ploy turns into a twisted game of the heart.

From the moment they met, Marjie's heart has belonged to handsome Captain Stanley Jonquil, younger brother of the Earl of Lampton.

It has been ages since Stanley last wrote, and Marjie and the Jonquil family are plagued by his unknown fate - until the day he unexpectedly reappears.

My job as a SEAL has always been to go in and save the day. But even heroes fall. Even heroes make mistakes. My only saving grace was Gin Sullivan. My knockout best friend who wasn’t afraid to tell me the truth even when it hurt. She’d pick me up when I was wallowing in my own stupidity. It wasn’t hard for me to fall for her. Any man would. She was beautiful. She was smart. She was everything I’d ever wanted. I had plans to tell her that, squash the pining we’d both done for two years.

She was my biggest regret and an even greater sin. She was a saint's angel. I was the devil's son. I should have never touched her. Loving her made me the greatest sinner. Sammy was the only good I've ever had in my life. I want it again. I want her again. But how do I earn her forgiveness when I've done the unforgivable? How can I be a good man in a family of criminals? With redemption within reach, danger circles us. Soon, a choice will have to be made...risk everything for redemption, or walk away from the only salvation I could ever have?
