Lucy Torres Shop Lifting

Love makes you do crazy things — like inking your husband’s name on your lower back. A permanent gesture for a forever union, right? Wrong. In the throes of a messy divorce, Sienna is back to the tattoo shop to get a coverup tattoo. But the tattoo artist, she doesn’t remember him looking so hot and smelling so damn good. He is Gavin Kessler, the Tattoo Master. Tough on the outside, tougher on the inside. With an ugly past casting a long shadow on his present and future. What starts out as a crazy bet between them spirals into something far more dangerous. Sienna soon realizes that she wants more than a tattoo from the Tattoo Master. She wants his díck, his protection, and if the differences between them will allow, his heart. Which of these is Gavin willing to give? ⚠️ WARNING: This book is exclusively for adult audiences (18+). It explores themes such as BDSM, morally complex characters, toxic family dynamics and occasional violence.

Tristan Stein was an Alpha, born to be dominant. Since his body rejected the pheromone reaction released by omegas, Tristan rejected four omegas and had difficulty getting a Mate. However, everything was different after Tristan met Samantha Wallach. Tristan never thought a worthless shop assistant and a servant like Samantha could catch his attention. Despite her miserable life, Samantha Wallach was nothing more than a human with debt and poverty that were inseparable parts of her life. Unlike Tristan—who had the honor of being a dominant Alpha and the Pack's leader from the honorable Stein family—our girl just lived her life from check to check. Until she met Tristan, which was both a fortune and a disaster for Samantha, who was only a human, not a Werewolf race like Tristan. Besides, Tristan had never met a human he could connect with like her. But who exactly was Samantha Wallach? Were they the couple destined by the Moon Goddess?

Three months after my baby was born, I found out my husband, Joe, was cheating. The other woman? Hailey. Pregnant and smug. Joe actually got on his knees, begging for a divorce. I said yes. Until I could find a place, Joe's mom, Claudia, let me stay at the house. "Hailey," Claudia said, "you'll handle all the household responsibilities now." Hailey, all fake enthusiasm, chirped, "I'll take good care of this family!" Claudia replied, "Great. You'll start your day at five making breakfast. When Luca's hungry, you'll feed him and change his diapers. Once he's down for a nap, clean the house, grocery shop, and prep lunch. Laundry in the afternoon, tea service mid-day, then bathe Luca and cook dinner. After that, you'll put him to bed." Hailey's face? Priceless.

As payment, he demands only one thing: her hand in marriage.

"We can't do this," I whispered, even as Jamie's fingers traced my jaw. "Tell me to stop," he commanded, his grey eyes darkening with desire. I should have. But instead: "I can't." His hand slid beneath my shirt. "This is wrong." "Then stop touching me." "I can't." His voice was raw. "Every night I think about you. About this." When his mouth finally claimed mine, it tasted like sin and salvation. His hands gripped my waist, lifting me onto the counter. I wrapped my legs around him, and reality dissolved. "Right now, you're mine," he growled against my neck. "Even knowing what it costs?" I gasped. "Even then." What happened in that kitchen was unforgivable. Beautiful and terrible and absolutely devastating. But our secret didn't stay buried. When a mysterious text arrives—*"I saw what you did"*—followed by photos taken through my window, I realize someone was watching. Someone knows. And they're not just threatening to tell Aiden. They're playing a twisted game where we're all pieces on the board. As paranoia turns to obsession and obsession bleeds into violence, I face an impossible truth: the person I should fear most might be the one I thought I knew best. **Some secrets refuse to stay buried. Some desires demand everything. And some love stories end in blood.**

"I am no fool, Mia. I am no fool. One day, you'll say yes to me, and when that happens, I will make it worth your while. I'll show you how good you are at loving someone else, that, being me, of course, and spend my days loving you as well. You say you're not perfect... So what? Who gives a shit. You're not perfect. No one is. But I swear to you, that if you give me a chance... Just one chance, I will make it worthwhile." I say as I pull her closer. I can hear her heart beating fast. Her eyes darken, and she bites her bottom lip. She shyly closes her eyes tilting her head away. God- she drives me crazy. I kissed her neck, and her hands grip my shirt, letting me know she liked it. Before I know it, I'm lifting her, making her wrap her legs around me as I kiss her neck, sucking gently and making her gasp. ~~~~~~~ They say friends shouldn't date. It always ends badly, but there are times when the attraction is far too strong. Nate Spencer has been in love with Mia Miller for the longest, and she has inevitably loved him. Now that Nate's free from any relationship, Mia chooses to follow her heart and give him a chance. But will he stick around to face all her shadows? Or will it be too much for him to bear?

A deadly curse was unleashed upon the people of Goldenheart Kingdom after King Ethan's his father slayed a boy during a raid on a weak pack. Thousands of people have died because of the curse. Yet the only way of lifting it is if King Ethan willingly sacrifices his own life or that of his fated mate!

The Kingdom is at the blink of collapse when Ethan finds his mate, Emma, a stunning beauty who just ran away from the neighboring pack after being betrayed by her own family. She is wolfless. But King Ethan is determined to protect her from anyone that wants her sacrificed to lift the curse. But what will happen when Emma gets accused of cold-blooded murder?

Emma knows she has never killed anyone and everything that has been said about her is a lie. But how will she prove her innocence when her enemy is the person her mate trusts most? King Ethan has a reputation of being unforgiving to anyone accused of such atrocity. Will the truth come out before she gets executed for a crime she has never committed?

"She will come back," she promised. "She just needs time to sort her head out." "Not her heart?" The dry distinction made Charley wince. "I'm sure she loves you," she persisted. "She's just not ready to commit to marriage." If you just give her time, then I— Black eyebrows with a fascinating silken gloss gave her a curious look. "Are you actually standing there, Miss Jones, suggesting that I should wait for Adelina to sort her head out?" Well, was she? Lifting her chin, "If you love her—yes," she insisted. "Then you are a romantic fool because it is not going to happen." He moved suddenly, straightening away from the desk. "There is a wedding arranged for next Saturday morning, and I intend to make sure that it goes ahead." Without a bride? Charley stared at him. "You mean—you're going to find her and drag her back to marry you?" A silly kind of laugh left her throat at the very image of Adelina being dragged by this man down the church aisle, kicking and screaming. ‘No.’ Reaching behind him, his long fingers picked Adelina's letter up again—this time to fold it with slow, neat precision. "I mean to replace her with someone else."I want reparation for being taken for an idiot, and if that means putting you in Adelina's wedding dress and marrying you in her place, then that is what is going to happen."
