For seven years, Elliot loved billionaire CEO Adrian Sterling, only to discover he was nothing more than a substitute for Adrian's first love. Heartbroken, Elliot finally walks away—and finds comfort in the arms of Julian Bennett, the brilliant mathematician who never forgot him. But when Adrian realizes what he's lost, he refuses to let Elliot go. Now, caught between a possessive ex and a first love who never stopped waiting, Elliot must decide who truly deserves his heart.

Mason Carter has the perfect roommate. Adrian Bennett cooks his meals, reminds him to eat something other than instant noodles, and somehow puts up with his terrible sleeping habits. They bicker over groceries, steal each other's clothes, and spend most evenings together on the couch. They're practically an old married couple. At least, that's what Mason likes to joke. Then Adrian drops a bombshell: he's gay, his ex-boyfriend is getting married, and he needs Mason to pretend to be his boyfriend at the wedding. Easy enough, right? Except one fake kiss turns out to be a little too convincing. Suddenly, Mason can't stop noticing Adrian's lips, his hands, or the way his heart races whenever they get too close. And when Adrian finally gets tired of waiting for something that may never happen, he starts pulling away. No more late-night meals together. No more falling asleep on the same couch. And worst of all? Adrian starts dating someone else. Mason insists he's not jealous. He's straight, after all. So why does watching another man make Adrian smile feel like losing the one person who has always been his home?

Ghost survived black sites, torture, overseas wars, and six years of becoming something less human and more useful. Founder of BLACK VEIL. Mercenary captain. A ghost story in tactical gear. The kind of man people called when they needed a building cleared, a body retrieved, or a problem buried so deep it stopped having a name. He was silent, brutal, untouchable. Even his own men feared him. As for someone like that— Nyra Quinn, underground mechanic and illegal street racer, had one very professional opinion: “He looks like he buries people in wet cement for stress relief.” Then one day, Ghost watched her steal a motorcycle outside a bank and chase down a robber through downtown LA traffic like she’s starring in her own action movie. He’s in the middle of a sniper assignment when it happened. One second he’s calculating wind direction. The next? Nyra tackled the guy off a bike, draged him into an alley, and started beating him with her helmet... He forgot his target existed for six seconds. For the first time in eight years. ... Later, Nyra worked under the hood of BLACK VEIL’s armored SUV while six armed mercenaries stood around like emotionally constipated furniture. She didn’t look up. > “Does your boss come with a user manual, or is the mask supposed to explain the whole personality disorder?” The garage went silent. Because no one talked about Ghost. Not like that. Not in front of him. Ghost stood beside the vehicle, skull mask turned toward her. After a long pause, he said, > “Nyra.” She rolled out from under the engine with a wrench in her hand. > “What?” His grey eyes lowered to the grease on her cheek. Then to her mouth. Then back to her eyes. > “Come here.” Nyra narrowed her eyes. > “If this is a murder thing, I’m charging extra.” Ghost’s voice dropped lower. Rougher. > “I lost focus on a job today.” Nyra blinked. > “Congratulations on having a human experience?” His men stopped breathing. Ghost didn’t move. > “Because of you.” Nyra stared at him. The wrench slipped slightly in her hand. Across the garage, Kane muttered, > “We’re all completely fucked.” ① Emotionally repressed masked mercenary captain × sunshine chaos mechanic ② He kills people for touching him. She touches his mask and asks if he’s hiding scars or feelings under there. ③ Slow burn / touch-starved antihero / found family mercenaries / black humor / “she makes the monster hesitate.”

James, a widowed single dad barely holding it together, made a quiet joke at his CEO's birthday party: “Maybe I should just marry her and solve all my problems.” He never expected Katherine Morrison—brilliant, intimidating, untouchable—to hear it.

Brielle Dawson has spent eleven years blaming herself for the night her sister disappeared. When three armed men threaten a grandmother and a little girl outside her diner, she refuses to stand helplessly by again—even with a gun aimed at her chest. She has no idea she’s protecting the family of Matteo Moretti, Chicago’s most feared mafia boss. Matteo wants to repay her. His daughter wants her to stay. And Brielle is finding it dangerously easy to want a place in their lives. Then Matteo’s mother recognizes the girl in Brielle’s battered childhood photograph. Her missing sister once came to the Moretti family for help. To discover what happened afterward, Brielle must trust a man whose family name appears in the very records that could explain her sister’s disappearance—and decide whether the home he offers is one she can choose for herself.

Vincent Moretti buried his wife five years ago. Then a little girl crawls under his desk—and calls the woman in her portrait Mommy. Barely five, clutching a worn stuffed rabbit, Lily is hiding from Vincent’s fiancée. She knows about a stolen painting, a locked room, and a lullaby he thought he would never hear again. Vincent intends to find out who brought her into his home. Instead, he discovers that someone has spent years keeping his family apart. Now a feared Mafia boss must earn a frightened child’s trust—and find the woman he never stopped loving before the people who took her realize their secrets are unraveling.

Everyone at the billionaire charity gala treated Dante Moretti's autistic son like an embarrassment. Everyone except me. I was just a waitress trying to survive another exhausting shift when I saw eight-year-old Leo trembling beneath the grand staircase, overwhelmed by the noise and cruel whispers around him. I knelt beside him and gently tapped the marble floor four times. I never expected him to respond. And I certainly never expected his father—the most feared mafia boss in New York—to order his guards to investigate me. But when Dante tried to send me away, Leo grabbed my apron and whispered: **"Daddy, please don't make her go. She's the only one who asked me what I needed."** One unexpected moment brought me into the Moretti family's world. Behind Dante's ruthless reputation, I discovered a lonely father desperate to understand his son. And behind Leo's quiet eyes was a little boy who simply wanted someone to listen. I never intended to fall for a dangerous man. I never imagined loving his son like my own. But sometimes, the family you never knew you needed is the one that chooses you first. **His son chose me. But would his father ever let himself love me?**

For six years, Vincent Moretti ruled Chicago with an iron fist and a heart that had forgotten how to love. Until a four-year-old girl in an oversized black suit marched into his office. "I'm your new bodyguard, Mr. Vincent!" For the first time since his wife's death, the feared mafia boss laughed. But hours later, his most precious possession—his late wife's gold watch—disappeared. His trusted security chief accused Rosa Delgado, the little girl's single mother, of stealing it. Just as Vincent was about to make a decision, Lily stepped forward. "He's lying! I saw him put it in Mommy's pocket!" One innocent accusation exposed a dangerous secret. The man Vincent had trusted for ten years was hiding a betrayal that threatened his entire empire. Now, as enemies close in, Vincent must protect a brave little girl and the beautiful woman who refuses to bow to him. He thought he was saving them. He never imagined they would be the ones to save his heart.

Five powerful Alpha generals rescued a broken Omega from an illegal laboratory. But when they opened his iron cage, he dropped to his knees and begged to stay. For twenty-three years, Eli Rowan had known nothing but fear, punishment, and the cold metal of his suppression collar. He couldn't speak. He couldn't trust. And he had never experienced kindness without expecting pain in return. Adrian Blackwood and his four fellow Alpha generals had conquered battlefields and commanded armies. Yet none of them knew how to convince one terrified Omega that he was finally safe. They gave him a luxurious bed. He slept on the floor. They offered him food. He hid bread for later. They promised never to hurt him. He trembled whenever they approached. Determined to earn his trust, five ruthless warriors began learning the gentlest kind of love. But as Eli slowly discovered warmth, affection, and the courage to make his own choices, all five Alphas found themselves falling for the same fragile Omega. And when the empire came to reclaim him, the generals faced an impossible choice: surrender the Omega they loved—or risk everything to protect his freedom. **Five dangerous Alphas. One wounded Omega. A love powerful enough to break an empire.**

For five years, I loved Julian Mercer. I answered every call, endured every humiliation, and convinced myself that one day, he would finally choose me. Then, at his birthday party, I heard him laugh. “He's not my boyfriend. I only invited him to serve drinks.” When I asked if he'd ever loved me, his answer was simple. “No.” That was the night I discovered something far worse than his rejection. I was trapped inside a toxic romance novel—one where I was destined to suffer for a hundred chapters before forgiving the man who destroyed me. So I decided to rewrite the ending. I disappeared. And when the world believed I was dead, I woke up in the care of Adrian Sterling—Crown City's coldest billionaire and Julian's most powerful rival. Adrian gave me everything Julian never had: patience, tenderness, and the freedom to choose. Then he confessed a secret. He'd been in love with me for six years. But just when I finally began falling for someone new, Julian discovered I was alive. And the man who never wanted me suddenly refused to let me go. This time, however, I wasn't waiting to be chosen. **I'd already chosen someone else.**
