«Дай мне еще один шанс, малыш… Я смогу тебя удивить». Одно сообщение, отправленное по ошибке, изменило все. Возможно, эсэмэс от незнакомца, который не называет своего имени, должно было меня насторожить. Но я оказалась абсолютно одна в новом городе, с головой погрязла в учебе и работе, и его забавные сообщения стали спасательным кругом, в котором я отчаянно нуждалась. Конечно, я бы никогда не ответила, если бы знала, что по ту сторону экрана скрывается не кто иной, как Линкольн Дэниелс, выдающийся хоккеист-суперзвезда. Он явно пытается заставить меня влюбиться, и я просто не могу сопротивляться. Со временем чрезмерная забота и…

Я приехала в Лос-Анджелес, чтобы начать все сначала. Но прошлое настигло меня и здесь. Я счастлива. Или, по крайней мере, пытаюсь убедить в этом саму себя. Наконец-то вырвавшись из-под контроля приемных родителей, я упорно тружусь, чтобы осуществить собственные мечты. Но затем в ресторане, где я работаю, появляется татуированный хоккеист-суперзвезда и… полностью меняет мою жизнь. Такие парни, как Ари Ланкастер, рождены, чтобы разбивать сердца. Он уверен, что искал меня годами. Говорит, что я – та самая. Обещает никогда меня не отпускать. В прошлом я уже ошибалась, но, возможно, этот неправильный парень – мой самый верный выбор?

The world knows me as the Demon’s Daughter.
He’s a famous serial killer. And I may have been his accomplice.

But no one knows for sure except for me.

The dangerous, cruel men of the Sphinx secret society intend to uncover my secrets…and break me.

Stellan, my childhood crush who lost his sister to the Demon.

Cain, the boy with the face of an angel to who manipulation comes as easy as breathing;

I hoped for a second chance at Darkwood University, only to have my dream ripped away the first time I kissed one of the handsome bastards.

They know who I am.

And they're determined to make me pay.

They should have thought twice about who they were playing with.

Because I am the demon’s daughter. And just because they have the power, the connections, the faces and bodies of gods… do they really think they’ll win?

I wanted a new life, not a war.

But if they insist, we’ll see who ends up playing.

You can’t steal something that belongs to you.
Casey
I’ve spent the last two years trying to keep the pieces together after my family fell apart. College was supposed to be my chance to start fresh—new beginnings, new dreams, and one thing I thought I could always count on.
Him.

Монстры почти заставили меня полюбить их, и теперь мне приходится расплачиваться за это.

Но и они тоже.

Стеллан, Каин, Ремингтон, Пакстон и я сошлись в войне, которую я отказываюсь проигрывать. Они забрали мою свободу, мои деньги, мои репутацию... но они не смогут забрать мою душу.

Они все время забывают, что я была выкована в огне Демона. Монстры меня не пугают. Они думают, что я надежна заперта с ними в их особняке. Они думают, что каждый раз, когда я ищу их ртов, их рук, это что-то значит для меня. Они думают, что могут сломить меня своими наказаниями... и своими удовольствиями.

Но я играю в их игру для того, чтобы выиграть нашу войну.

Один за другим я раскрою их секреты, какими бы коварными они ни были, и заставлю думать, что я их спасаю... только для того, чтобы использовать их темный секрет против них самих.

Смерть. Кровопролитие. Предательство... секс, это все, чем когда-либо будет моя жизнь, и теперь пришло время приветствовать этих мужчин в моих кошмарах.

Эти монстры думают, что они короли мира, го король всегда падает без королевы.

И короли в этой игре... собираются сгореть.

I woke up in the hospital five years ago with no idea of who I am…

Every day, I walk aimlessly around the city, searching for anything that helps me remember my past.

I don’t find it until I apply for a job at the local hockey arena, home of the NHL team, the Devils.

Three sexy hockey players inside look…familiar.

They all insist they don’t know me.

But they watch me. Every day.

Their silence continues until a handsome, tattooed stranger dressed in a suit saunters into the arena and starts sweet talking me.

Then they jump off the ice, ready to fight him to the death.

And for some reason…he seems ready to return the favor.

Now, I’m being swept into a life of glamorous darkness…and into a war between men I evidently used to love.

Stellan’s always been a pretty horrible ex-boyfriend, but he takes it to a new level when he kidnaps me.

I wake up in a trunk, determined to make him pay.

But Stellan needs answers about his sister’s disappearance.

And I need them too.

So even if he does deserve to die for what he’s done to me, we form a tentative alliance.

We go back to where it all began, Stellan’s childhood home. The Demon’s house, next door, watches over our search.

It’s not only the house that seems to loom over us.

Ghosts from my past know everything that happened to Sophia…

And they want to see me embrace my father’s legacy. Or die. They aren’t too picky.

My other a**holes aren’t too happy with Stellan’s disappearing act, but they’ll go along with helping…for now.

Can Stellan and I find what happened to Sophia, despite the hate and lust that pulses between us?

Or will my father’s old friends leave us buried alongside Sophia?

With my mother in the Demon’s clutches, I’ll do almost anything to buy her more time.

Like make a deal with the Demon.

I’ll pay him with an enemy’s death for my mother’s life.

Long ago, dear old dad took me on a camping trip with his serial killer bestie before he broke their pinkie promises. Now the Demon wants the man dead. But when I come face to face with Uncle Carnage, strange memories start to surface.

Who am I, really?

What have I done?

Was every sin solely to survive?

When I don’t know who I am, my men anchor me in reality. Cain’s daddy dom vibes, Stellan’s sweet way of seeing straight through me, Remington’s easygoing genius, Pax’s fierce protectiveness.

Then the Demon starts taking them away from me…

As the Demon unravels both my past and present, will I finally be able to bring him down?

Or will I always be daddy’s little girl?

One night changes everything

One fight gone viral can win Paxton a million dollars, endorsements, UFC recruiting.
And another video gone viral could cost him it all.

Because now a stalker is sending him videos from the night his mother was killed.

Pax thought he’d killed her murderer. He thought he could move on.

But now dark secrets are revealing that not all is as it seems…secrets that could challenge everything my men know about each other.

One that could destroy their bonds.

Right when I need all four of my men to defeat the nightmares of my past.

Because my father—the world's most famous and terrifying serial killer—is hunting me.

Walker Davis is going to ruin me…but for once, it might be worth it. I’m a pariah, an outcast, and my life is not my own. I went to that hockey game hoping for an escape and found one in him. They call Walker Davis “Disney” for a reason, because the superstar goalie is the “Prince Charming” of every girl’s dreams. He told me he understood I just wanted one perfect night… But now he’s everywhere I go. He seems to know everything about me. He keeps saying I’m the one. And he’s trying to change my last name. He’s crazy… A wrong date can never be a happily ever after though…right?

Sometimes the past is best left forgotten…or at least that’s what I’m learning.

The men I love lied to me…but I can’t seem to let them go.

And Greyson’s enemies are determined to destroy us all, once and forever.

To survive, Sebastian, Carter, and Jack will have to join Greyson and his Jackals…even though they thought they left their criminal past behind forever when they joined the NHL.

When Greyson demands they prove themselves to him, it turns out that despite their years of living as pampered superstars…they still know how to fight, torture and kill.

The only thing the four of them agree on is…me.

The mafia boss and the three NHL stars will do anything to protect me…even work together.

My memories are slowly returning of how the five of us once formed our own strange little family though…

Can we find our way back to the way we used to be so we can have the future I’m so desperate for?

Because I’m learning that the only thing I want more than my memories, is all of them…forever.

Lincoln, Ari, and Walker are back in a holiday novella…

I hate Christmas.

Years and years of disappointment have taught me that Christmas is the worst. I don’t like the music, the food, the decorations…anything.

And Lincoln Daniels, my tattooed hockey god of a husband, thinks he’s going to change that…

I tell him it’s not going to happen.

But the thing about Christmas…

And Lincoln…

Is that they’re both a little magical.

The question is…can Lincoln work his magic and change my mind, or is the season all wrong for me after all…

в течение последних двух лет я пыталась удержаться на плаву после распада семьи. Университет должен был стать моим шансом начать все с чистого листа — свежим вздохом, новой надеждой и одним непоколебимым ориентиром, на который, как мне казалось, всегда могла положиться.
На него.
Грей был моим якорем, моей опорой, моим всем.
Некогда был.
И вот, в самый неожиданный момент, в моей жизни появляется Паркер Дэвис, разнося все на мелкие кусочки.
В первую встречу, когда наши взгляды со звездным квотербеком из Теннесси пересеклись, в его глазах вспыхнуло нечто похожее на одержимость. Он неутомим, обаятелен и невероятно уверен в том, чего хочет.
А хочет он... меня.
Он говорит, что я — его конечная цель, и он полон решимости это доказать.
Но где проходит тонкая грань между одержимостью и любовью?
Что со мной произойдет, когда эта грань начнет размываться?
Сначала я была уверена, что Паркер Дэвис мне совершенно не подходит. Но что, если... он как раз и есть то, что мне нужно?

The Monster King wants to play…
It's been 1097 days and 14 hours since I've been locked in this place.
And they've come to me every night.
The monsters in my dreams worship my body.
And when I wake up, I'm desperate for more…
But they’re never there to finish me off.

Dr. Holloway says I can leave the asylum if I start to take my meds, but I've always hated how they made me feel...and I'm not sure that I agree with them that I'm actually crazy.
Because dreams don’t make you crazy, right?
I've got to start living someday though...so I finally take the plunge and obey so I can get out.
My dreams stop, and the monsters disappear. I’m finally starting a new life.
And that's when he comes...the monster king.

Evidently my little dreams, weren't just dreams. And he and his demon horde were feeding off my lust.
Their glowing eyes, sharp teeth, jagged claws…and big c**ks…
They’re all real.
The Monster King wants me back. I’m their favorite plaything after all.
And I just might want to play.

An obsessive football player pursues a girl with airtight defenses in USA Today–bestselling author C.R. Jane’s scorcher of a sequel to The Wrong Quarterback.

All Riley wants is to be cared for. But she goes unnoticed by her parents, unloved by the boyfriend who left her, and constantly exhausted by a body that betrays her. When someone she trusts offers her everything she’s ever dreamed of, Riley accepts. A year later, all that’s left of her is a broken, empty shell. So she runs away to college and doesn’t look back . . .

Jace Thatcher is campus royalty. The only thing the gorgeous star athlete loves more than football is winning―on and off the field. Lately, he’s felt like something’s missing, and when he spots Riley in a crowded bar, her presence is like a punch to the gut. Jace immediately knows she’s his; she just doesn’t know it yet.

Their red-hot encounter leaves Riley shaken to the core, but she knows better than to let herself get burned again. She plans to keep Jace at arm’s length, but the Tennessee Tigers’ wide receiver is suddenly everywhere she looks. He says he wants to take care of her forever, that there’s no point in running. Because he’s playing for her heart―and he has no intention of losing.

This deluxe edition features sprayed edges with stenciled artwork, two character illustrations, a signed letter from the author, a curated playlist, and a recipe from the story.

Whoever heard of a homeless ballerina?

Everyone in my life has always disappointed me, but NHL hockey star Camden James says he never will.

We meet, and then in a single blink, he’s made me his roommate, promising me I don’t have to worry about anything ever again.

They call him a hero, and that’s what I desperately need.

I remind myself it’s all temporary. That I shouldn’t get used to it.

But he has other ideas.

Camden tells me he’s obsessed, that he’s going to change my life, that he’ll never let me go.

But as more time passes, I wonder if it’s going to take a villain to get me my happily ever after.

And Camden James just might be the right man for the role.

Моя работа – это сцена, а что до моей личной жизни… Она больше напоминает цирк. Я настоящая поп-сенсация, однако хочу лишь одного: вырваться из-под удушающего контроля и ощутить себя свободной хотя бы на одну ночь. Возможно, именно поэтому я соглашаюсь провести ее с сексуальным хоккеистом, который умудряется свести меня с ума одним только взглядом. Вратарь-суперзвезда Уолкер «Дисней» Дэвис выглядит как Прекрасный принц, но за миловидной внешностью скрывается парень, готовый на все, чтобы получить желаемое.
