Zeth Mayfair is pretty much the very last thing I need in my life. And yet with every breath I take he becomes more engrained in every aspect of it: He has a key to my house. He knows where I work. He dumped his strange, mentally traumatized housemate on my doorstep and has driven off into the sunset in search of my missing sister. I want to forget him. Want to change the locks and blot out his face, scourge his very name from my memory. The problem is that I also need him... moreZeth Mayfair is pretty much the very last thing I need in my life.

Want to change the locks and blot out his face, scourge his very name from my memory. The problem is that I also need him. I need him more than I need air to breath, and I can’t be without him now.

Sloane I’m not safe. I haven’t been safe for a while now. I ran to Zeth for protection, but Zeth is in danger himself.

This is the closest I’ve come to finding my sister in two years. I can’t back down now. Zeth My right hand man’s being tortured in the basement... moreSloane I’m not safe.

Sloane For over two years, Sloane Romera has pinned everything on finding Alexis. Life was going to get better. Easier. Happier. The nightmare of having a missing sister was supposed to end, and everything was supposed to go back to normal. However, now that she’s found her sister, Sloane is discovering that life has a way of ridiculing what we expect of it. Nothing is easier. And ‘normal’ is falling for a man who might never be able to feel the same way... moreSloane For over two years, Sloane Romera has pinned everything on finding Alexis. Life was going to get better.

However, now that she’s found her sister, Sloane is discovering that life has a way of ridiculing what we expect of it. Nothing is easier. And ‘normal’ is falling for a man who might never be able to feel the same way. *** Zeth A lengthy history of breaking things with his fists has given Zeth Mayfair a fairly good idea of how to get his own way. But when his goal, the one, single woman on the face of the planet that he’s truly ever wanted, can only be obtained by fixing things instead of destroying them, how can he adjust a lifetime of violence in order to make her his once and for all? And how can he make sure that she is safe? The first part is going to take time. But the second part… The second part is easy. He must kill Charlie Holsan. less

Sloane How many times can a person fall down and still get back up? How many times can things go wrong before you just give up? I’ve lost everything. My home, my job, my purpose in life—everything has been turned upside down. But while life hasn’t exactly turned out the way I would have liked it to, I wouldn’t change a thing. If things were different, I wouldn’t have Lacey. I wouldn’t have Michael. But most importantly, I wouldn’t have him. I’ve realized what I feel... moreSloane How many times can a person fall down and still get back up? How many times can things go wrong before you just give up? I’ve lost everything.

Only one question remains: Is he capable of feeling the same way? Zeth Secrets are a prison, and I have been behind bars for years.

I have done so many wrongs in this life, and yet this woman has forgiven me. She’s done something I never thought possible—she has learned to understand me, and she hasn’t run. She’s amazed me. She’s saved me. She’s fallen in love with me. If it’s within my power, I’m about to do the same for her. less
