Nadine Aurelia

In a bleak future, the man with everything wants one more thing. Her. Tiernan is a man with everything, and he’s not used to being denied what he wants. When he sees Madison from a distance, he makes the arrogant decision to take her. Her family needs her, but she has little choice except to become the Commander’s new companion, albeit reluctantly. Life in the hub of power isn’t what she expects, and neither is Tiernan.

At first, it seems impossible that she could ever be happy with the man who forced her to give up her life, but feelings grow between them. Their relationship reaches a fragile new level that could deepen to something neither expected, if betrayal and treason don’t separate the lovers.

A playboy prince Bennet Casparian was once a hard-partying, racing, playboy prince until he wrecked his racecar and ended up paralyzed. Now, he’s wounded and angry with the world. The last thing he needs or wants is some know-it-all American pushing him to recover—especially the dowdy woman his doctor recruited for the task.

As passion flares, and their relationship changes, she has to remember falling in love isn't part of the deal. Nights in his bed don't guarantee a happy ever after for her, him, or their baby.

Fate has offered a second chance, but there’s always a price. Years ago, Claire’s sister loved Bodie’s brother enough to elope with him. Humans and wolf-shifters aren’t allowed to mate, but they would have defied convention if a terrible car accident hadn’t killed the young lovers and left Claire scarred and broken. She never confessed her crush to Bodie, but he knew and didn’t act on it then. She was too young and too human back then. Now, she copes by hiding from the world. When future Alpha Bodie comes back into her life, it forces her to truly live again. The attraction sparks anew, and he sees her beauty inside and out. There might finally be a chance for happiness, but old prejudices remain on both sides. The mysterious Human Purity Movement starts harassing the shifter sanctuary town of Northstar, and the pack responds. With intolerance on both sides trying to pull them apart, Claire and Bodie cling desperately to each other. She’s determined not to lose him, and he swears he’ll walk away from everything for her. They’re committed, but the final test facing them is the worst, and it could be enough to pull them apart and destroy the entire shifter community.

Five officers involved in a joint operation find love and babies with younger women in this compilation of interconnected stories and characters.

When witch Brenna escapes the Englishman enslaving her and using her power for his own evil ends, the only place to run is to the dragon-shifters of the Highlands. The Scots are at war for their independence, and as the Bloodiest Eye, the notorious Seer who has caused the death of many, however reluctantly, she knows they’ll kill her if they believe she’s a threat. One shared glance with Cameron Balfour has her imagining a future entwined with his. She lets the laird believe the lie that taking her virtue will drain her powers, but as their one night becomes more, she knows she’s going to have to admit her deception. With Sir Walstone still searching for her, eager to have her gift of Sight under his control again, she might not survive long enough to tell him the truth or accept his mating mark.

Everything North Campbell believes about her life is a lie. She doesn't discover that until the night her father dies, and she learns he wasn't her father. He kidnapped her as a baby from her birth parents, Jim and Carol Allis. They seem ecstatic to find her, but she quickly learns they, along with their powerful dragon-shifter ally Pytor Douglas, have nefarious plans for her. She runs straight into the arms of another mysterious group, and they tell her she's a Trueblood—descended from all the mythic races and capable of great power. She's at risk, but the Council assigns her six bodyguards, and the Oracle has seen her future husband is among the six. North is dragged from realm to realm to learn how to use her powers. That task seems impossible—almost as impossible as choosing just one man from among the six mythics entrusted with her protection. How can she choose between a vampire, an angel, a demon, a witch, a dark elf, and a wolf-shifter when each of the men is perfect for her in different ways? Dare she risk everything and choose them all? Will she have a chance to make the decision, or will Pytor's group get her first?

Nadine tak mengira, sepeninggal ayahnya ibunya menikah lagi dengan pria tua kaya raya bernama Sebastian Moretti. Namun dibalik keluarga barunya, Nadine terseret masuk ke dunia keluarga elite yang dingin dan penuh darah. Dominic Moretti—dingin, tenang, penuh misteri dan memandang Nadine seolah ia tak pernah ada, namun dibalik sikapnya ada sesuatu yang berbahaya. Dan Matteo Moretti—liar, berbahaya, penuh gairah, dengan tatapan yang membuat kulit Nadine meremang bahkan sebelum ia bicara. *** "Nghh..." “Jika kau berbicara sesuka hatimu lagi,” desis Dominic tepat di telinga Nadine, “aku sendiri yang akan melibas dan melalap habis mulut tipismu. Mematikan suaramu, menghabiskan setiap sisa napas yang kau punya… hingga kau tidak bisa lagi mengeluarkan satu kata pun selain erangan." *** “Apa kesalahanmu?” desis Matteo. “Kesalahanmu adalah datang ke rumahku… dan membiarkan ibumu merangkak naik ke ranjang ayahku.” "Lepaskan! Kau gila!" Nadine meronta. "Kau ingin tahu seberapa gila aku?" Matteo mendekatkan wajahnya. "Aku benci barang asing di rumahku. Dan cara terbaik untuk merusak barang asing... adalah dengan menandainya."

Ulang tahun pertama Elio--putra mereka--seharusnya jadi perayaan cinta bagi Nadine dan Arvan. Namun yang datang justru duka, nisan, dan pengkhianatan. Nadine berdiri di pemakaman anaknya, menggenggam boneka beruang kecil, satu-satunya peninggalan yang masih mengandung aroma tubuh Elio. Anak itu bisa diselamatkan—kalau sang ayah, Arvan, bersedia mendonorkan sumsum. Namun yang Nadine dapatkan bukan pertolongan, melainkan penolakan dan penghinaan serta perselingkuhan dua orang terdekat. Seketika dunia Nadine runtuh, saat sebuah pesan video dari nomor tak dikenal mengungkap perselingkuhan antara Arvan dan sepupunya sendiri, Raline. Lalu, pesan lain menyusul: "Kau terlihat cantik dalam balutan duka. Lihatlah ke belakangmu." Dari situ, semuanya berubah menjadi lebih gelap. Didorong dari tangga pemakaman dan dituduh mencoba bunuh diri, Nadine terbangun di rumah sakit tanpa suara, tanpa anak, tanpa keluarga, tanpa apa-apa. Bahkan suaminya telah menceraikannya dalam keadaan koma. Dunia menghapusnya, satu demi satu. Namun ketika ia nyaris mengakhiri hidup dari rooftop rumah sakit, seorang pria asing menariknya kembali dari jurang kematian. Pria itu keras, dingin, dan penuh rahasia—tetapi juga satu-satunya orang yang tampaknya melihat Nadine … sebagai manusia, bukan sebagai tragedi berjalan. Siapa dia? Kenapa dia muncul di titik terendah hidup Nadine? Dan apa maksudnya dengan kalimat: "Kita belum selesai membicarakan tentang hidup"? Ketika luka lama terbuka dan rahasia demi rahasia terbongkar, Nadine menyadari: kematian Elio mungkin bukan akhir—melainkan awal dari sesuatu yang jauh lebih kelam.
