He’s a means to an end. A way to right a wrong done to my family. But I can’t deny the desire I see in his eyes, Or the need to see what it would be like in his arms. Can I give myself to my stepbrother without losing myself in the process?

I had a good life, a meaningful life, full of order and purpose. The last thing I needed was a stalker ruining it all. I certainly didn’t need the nuisance of having a bodyguard. Not in the form of the man who broke my heart six years ago. Now he’s in my space, in my life, and turning my world upside down. I fell for him once and it almost destroyed me. There is no way I’m going to fall for him again.

My company and protecting its legacy are all that matters. I will do whatever it takes to prevent anyone from taking it over. Especially one Jared Barnes. It doesn’t matter that he awoke something in me that I thought was long buried. Or that I imagine kissing him more than I should. He won’t win. I won’t let him. No matter the cost.

He was only supposed to be a one-night stand. I never thought I would see him again, much less at my friend’s engagement party. Seeing him and dealing with the attraction that can’t be denied is bad enough But suddenly we are on the run together, and he has vowed to protect me. And to stay out of my bed. Too bad I have other ideas.

He’s a means to an end. A way to right a wrong done to my family. But I can’t deny the desire I see in his eyes, or the need to see what it would be like in his arms. Can I give myself to him without losing myself in the process?

With the entire hunter community reeling from Sahara’s death and the Frost twins ready to implode, I fall ill and look to the council for answers. While Hecate reassures me there is nothing wrong, I feel there is more going on as we search for a hidden temple belonging to the dark witch. When Mardella steals another artifact, we begin to theorize what she has in store for us and the demon king, and it doesn’t bode well for either realm. But the demon king fears the dark witch more than we do, and he sends a horde of demons to destroy everything in their wake.

My company, my life’s work, everything I’ve accomplished is on the line. I need to get married and fast. It will be easy to consider it a business arrangement. One that will be lucrative for both my assistant, Mika, and myself. I won’t think about how this takes away the whole problem of dating an employee. But it doesn’t take away my desire to make her mine.

Bailey, a headstrong and independent woman, finds herself trapped with the one person she least expected, her father’s best friend, the charismatic and enigmatic Ryan. As the storm rages outside, a different kind of turmoil brews within them. Bound by the shared urgency of survival, they discover a connection that defies age and convention. But just as they tentatively explore the possibility of a future together, a distant rumble signals a new arrival, Bailey’s father. The reunion is fraught with tension and emotions.

When we are attacked by mutated hybrids and one of the Frost twins is gravely injured, I am forced to call on a power beyond my comprehension. I utilize a mysterious artifact but end up playing into the hands of dark, malevolent forces. Unraveling the tangled web of deceit, I uncover the origins of the dark witch and her unholy alliance with the creatures threatening our existence. With an army at her fingertips, she poses a threat that could spell the end for humanity. Yet, the darkest revelation is still to come and it shakes the very foundation of my being.
