Five Years Earlier: Henry Dunne knows three things: that agreeing to host this raucous house party was a terrible idea, that he absolutely cannot show up to his nursing shift tomorrow with a hangover, and that the beautiful redhead in the corner will be sleeping in his bed tonight.

Ryder, Garrett, Kenzo, and Diesel - The Vipers. Their deals are as sordid as their business, and their reputation is enough to bring a grown man to his knees, forcing him to beg for mercy. They are not people you mess with, yet my dad did. The old man ran up a debt with them and then sold me to cover his losses. Yes, sold me. They own me now. I’m theirs in every sense of the word. But I’ve never been meek and compliant.

Obituary writer Nadine Barbault doesn’t mind being called “Lady Death”. It suits the ice queen persona she’s cultivated to survive the fast-paced Toronto Herald. So when Nadine learns that famous (and reclusive) author Dot Voline has died, she doesn’t hesitate to run the obituary…only to discover that Dot is very much alive. Nadine’s screw-up has brought Wesley Chen of the rival Spear no end of joy—she’s been a thorn in his extremely ambitious side for years. But the renewed interest in Dot also surfaced chatter about a mysterious past scandal.

After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

All my life, I’ve been forced to be the obedient son. The boy who will grow to be just like his father. But now, I’m an adult, and it’s time to show the world who I truly am. My father has always tried to make a man of me. He’s taught me to hide my authentic self from the world. I’ve heard the taunts and insults so often, I start to believe them. Until I meet Jerome… My stomach quivers when he walks into the meeting room, and I can’t stop staring at him. As we spend time together, I discover that he sees me — the real me. And instead of being embarrassed, he pushes me to ...

I've been in love with him for nearly twenty years, but I've always hidden it. Just like I've hidden my true self. But when I find out he's coming to my town, I know this is my chance. He doesn't know this version of me—the real me. So when I walk up to him wearing a dress and with my long hair done perfectly, he doesn't recognize me. And when his eyes drift down my body, I know I've got him. Just like I planned. I've been heart-broken and alone since he walked out the door. He never gave me the chance to tell him the way I felt, and I've never forgiven him for that. Now, I'm going to ...

Being forced into witness protection could be Henry's chance at a new life—a life as Jessica. But that's only if the mafia doesn't find him. Henry was all alone on the street. Until the terrified man ran around the corner. Until the SUV roared up and opened fire. Now he's the only witness to a murder, and the city's two most powerful crime organizations are desperate to get to him before he can testify. The police immediately place him in their witness protection program. Whisking him away to a new city where no one will find him. Where no one knows him. A place where he can be himself, ...

Parker knew her life would change when she came out as a trans woman. But she never expected to be forced into an arranged marriage. Years ago, her parents made a deal with a crime family — the hand of their first-born daughter for the money to expand their business. They were a young couple. Already with one child, and a daughter on the way. But when that pregnancy ended in miscarriage — when they could never conceive again — it seemed they would never fulfill their end of the bargain. That changed when Parker told them her secret. Now, Parker is being forced to go on a date with a ...

Sundays are Anthony's day to be himself. To be the woman he hides from everyone else. To be normal. When he's forced off the side of the road, though, everything changes. As soon as he sees the man rushing to the side of his wrecked car, Anthony's heart races. And not just because this man could discover his secret. When he feels his touch, Anthony's body feels like it could explode. And when the man insists on seeing him again—insists on a date—Anthony knows that he has to say no. He can't let this man into his life. He has too much to lose. But would one date really be that bad?

"Trust me, you'll love this," she says. My heart races when she hands me a pair of black stockings. I stare at her, but she just nods. I sit and slowly pull them up my legs. I’ve never felt anything like this before. Never imagined anything could feel this good. But I stop. I shouldn’t do this. I shouldn’t like this. I’m a man. Then her hands find mine — she kisses me — and I forget all my doubts. My fears are gone. “That’s my girl,” she says. No one has ever called me that, but I nod my head. I am her girl.

I need a part-time job. Quick. When I see the ad for a historical re-enactor, I know it’s perfect. I don’t know it will transform my life. During the interview, the head of the group warns me this is more than I expect. It’s different from the theater productions I’m used to. But I promise to commit to the role — to fully immerse myself in the character. I don’t realize this means I’ll wind up in petticoats and dresses. And then there’s him. The instant we meet, I become stuck. Stuck in that spot and stuck to him. I’m wearing a dress. I should be embarrassed. The heat ...

I’m always so careful. How did he find out I wear panties under my suits? And why is he offering me a job? The gorgeous secretary steps off the elevator and walks toward me. Everyone else drools over her body. I just feel sick with envy. She reminds me of everything I can never have. Everything I can never be. As she hands me the note, I know it has to be a mistake. There’s no way the head of marketing asked to see me. When I knock on his door, I know he’ll tell me I’m the wrong person. He can’t possibly want me. Instead… he tells me he knows the true me. The one I’ve kept ...

Waking up with a strange man standing over me should be terrifying, but I’m not scared until he threatens to call the police. I’m at my limit. I have no money, no car, no place to live. But it’s all worth it to get away from my ex. A chill runs through me when I imagine what he would do if he caught me now. Then I meet Sean. When he says I can stay with him with no strings attached, I believe him. When he tells me he can keep me safe, I trust him. But I have a secret. Something I had to bury so deep that only a few people know it. Sean makes me so comfortable, I want to show him. I ...

My wife wants a daughter. But we’ve tried everything. There’s just no way… I knew touring the new high school would be hard on her. Now we’re in the cafeteria, and she’s in tears. She wishes she had a daughter who could go to school here, and I wish I could give her that. But wishes don’t come true, do they? I laugh when I open the mail a week later. A letter confirming my registration? As a high school sophomore? Whatever. I’m 33 and long past graduation, so I toss it aside. But maybe I shouldn’t ignore it. Maybe I should go to the office and clear this up. Maybe I should ...

She's living the life she was meant to have. And Jeremy is nothing more than a painful lesson. Just life’s way of teaching her she can never trust anyone, no matter how much her heart insists.

I thought I was safe. Just two nights a week on stage at a club that’s over an hour from home. But then I see her, and I know my life will never be the same. No one in town knows about me.
