Cold Hearted Rake

She was rejected. He was cheated on. He was cold. She was never the same. He was a Beta. She was a nobody. She was heartless. He gave her life meaning. They said she was colder than ice. But he didn't want her any other way.

Rachel Sinclair lost everything when a fraud conviction destroyed her life as a social worker. Five years later, she's reinvented herself as Raven Steele—a woman with a clean past and a dangerous mission. Her target: the Diamondback Motorcycle Club, a vicious criminal organization that operates with impunity while the system looks the other way. Using the forgotten murder of a small-time dealer as her cover story, Raven infiltrates the deadly world of motorcycle clubs. But her carefully laid plans collide with Jax Savage, the devastatingly dangerous president of the Savage Saints MC. Muscular, tattooed, and lethal, Jax has been waging his own war against the Diamondbacks since they murdered his younger brother. What starts as a tactical alliance quickly ignites into an attraction neither can resist. As Raven goes deeper undercover with the enemy, feeding intelligence to Jax while maintaining her cover, the line between duty and desire blurs. But in a world where trust is a weapon and love is a liability, their growing connection threatens to destroy everything they've worked for. When Raven's deception leads to a devastating blow against the Diamondbacks, she becomes the target of a deadly bounty. Forced to reveal her criminal past to the man she's falling for, she must decide if their connection is strong enough to survive the truth. With enemies closing in and a war erupting in the streets, Raven and Jax face an impossible choice: save themselves or save each other. In the savage world of motorcycle clubs, some hearts are worth fighting for—and some are worth dying for. *Content warning: Contains explicit language, violence, mature themes, and sexual content.

At the age of twelve, Rowan Vale lost everything he had ever known. After his father was accused of kidnapping and murdering the daughter of a powerful Alpha family, Rowan's family became the target of endless hatred.  Branded as the son of a monster, he watched his mother succumb to despair before taking her own life. Rather than defending his only grandson, Rowan's grandfather chose to protect the family's reputation, abandoning the frightened child to St. Aldric's Orphanage, where years of abuse, neglect, and humiliation convinced Rowan that perhaps everyone was right to despise him. Sixteen years later, Rowan has buried his painful past beneath years of hard work. Graduating as one of the country's most talented sports physiotherapists, he receives the opportunity of a lifetime—an appointment as the newest physiotherapist for the Scarlet Wolves, the most successful professional hockey club in the nation. On his very first day, Rowan's life changes forever. The moment the team's legendary captain, Drake Rucker, catches Rowan's scent, his Alpha wolf immediately recognizes the impossible truth. Mate. But Drake refuses to believe fate would bind the future Alpha King to a man everyone believes is a wolfless omega. Rather than accepting Rowan, Drake publicly rejects him before the entire Scarlet Wolves Pack, shattering Rowan's already fragile heart. Humiliated but unwilling to beg for affection, Rowan chooses to remain dedicated to the team that now sees him as nothing more than a rejected mate. What neither of them realizes is that the Moon Goddess has refused to acknowledge Drake's rejection.

“I have nothing else,” I continued, my voice gaining a desperate strength. “So I offer myself. My loyalty. My.... my body. Whatever you want from me. Just...just help me make them pay. Help me destroy them.” Then, slowly, a smirk touched his lips. It wasn’t a kind smile. It was cold, calculating, and utterly terrifying. It sent a chill down my spine ~ He is no savior, just a cold, calculating rogue with a history of violence and eyes that blaze gold in the shift. She is the Omega who unexpectedly became his fated mate, carrying the weight of murdered kin and a desperate need for vengeance. He offers her the strength she craves, but his methods are brutal, his heart seemingly encased in ice. Amidst the blood and shadows, can fleeting, rare moments of raw connection forge something real, or is a monster forever bound to his nature?

She never expected to be dragged back in silver chains and thrown at his feet. Their eyes meet. The mate bond snaps into place fierce, feral, undeniable. The pack reels. Kael rejects her publicly, voice like ice, but the bond stops his blade. He locks her in a silver cell instead, vowing to break the rogue who’s haunted him for a decade. She tells herself it’s hate. Survival But the bond doesn’t lie. Proximity turns rage into fire. Secrets unravel. And the line between enemy and mate blurs until it shatters. In a world of blood moons and betrayals, one wrong move could destroy them both or forge something unbreakable. A dark, steamy enemies-to-lovers shifter romance where vengeance meets fate, and surrender is the deadliest weapon of all.

Growing up in the elite circle, Mary Collins always thought her life was perfect. She gave her entire heart to Henry Davis, her childhood best friend and fiancé—the man she believed would always protect her. But right at the end of summer, just before college begins, Mary's world crumbles. Her father is framed in an embezzlement scandal and forced to go on the run. All of her family's assets are seized, stripping Mary of her heiress status and turning her into a girl who lost everything in the blink of an eye. Panicked and running out of tears, Mary goes to Henry on her first day of college, desperately hoping he will be her safe haven. Instead of a warm embrace, Mary is slapped with the most brutal betrayal. Right in front of a crowd, Henry tosses her aside just to show off his new girlfriend: Scarlett, the Queen Bee of Kingsley University. At Mary's absolute lowest point, a hand reaches out to her. It doesn't belong to a hero, but to her sworn enemy: Ryder Vance. Ryder is the embodiment of everything Mary hates. He is the arrogant, sharp-tongued, and impenetrable varsity hockey captain. Yet, the Ice King offers her a way out that is simply too tempting to refuse: Be my fake girlfriend, and we'll make that bastard fall on his knees and beg. A revenge pact. It sounds simple enough. But the charade quickly turns into something far more dangerous. Because Ryder Vance was never truly pretending. And from the very beginning... Mary was never just part of a deal.
