Some families run from their past. The Hawkins siblings hunt it down. Katherine Hawkins never asked to grow up in a world where demons were real and survival meant learning how to fight them. Alongside her brothers—William and Alex—she’s spent years tracking the things that live in the dark. But when an old exorcism tape surfaces and names from a forgotten case start resurfacing—Malcolm Smith, Matthew Conner, Gabriel Spender—their past begins catching up with them fast. Secrets their father kept buried are beginning to unravel. And the deeper they dig, the clearer it becomes: the monsters they’re chasing now are connected to something older, something unfinished… something personal. Now, with danger closing in and trust wearing thin, the Hawkins siblings must head straight into the heart of a mystery that could shatter everything they thought they knew—about their family, their history, and the war they were born into. Because sometimes, the real fight doesn’t start until after the ghosts come back.

In her right state of mind, she would never have even been in a strangers car more less kissing him deeply at the backseat, but she wasn't in her right state of mind. Jeff's hand came down her face, to her neck, he held her waist gently and she let out a soft moan. She had nothing on but a silk gown that had thin straps. “Sir, ma'm we're here" Walter said out loud. They hadn't noticed the car had stopped some minutes ago. Emily's cheeks flushed with embarrassment and she quickly sat upright, and picked her purse and heels. …. They had a misunderstanding when they met, an intimate moment the second time they met. All a big misunderstanding and they swore to never cross paths again. Little did Emily know Jeff was her new boss and the first son of Frank Aston, Billionaire and Head of Aston corporations. Third time’s the charm, but not for these two who knew they had fallen for each other but couldn’t be together.

My fiancé was drugged at a party and spent the night tangled up with Isabelle Parson, the housekeeper's daughter. Afterward, Isabelle turned up pregnant, and Adrian tore up our engagement right there at our engagement party. "Leah, Isabelle is carrying my child. I have to marry her. I know you still love me. After I marry Isabelle, you can keep being my lover." I agreed to break off the engagement on the spot, then turned around and married Gordon—the man I'd once refused in a family alliance. At my wedding, Adrian stood before the guests and mocked me with an icy smile. "So this is what you've sunk to without me—marrying a pauper on the verge of bankruptcy. I'm the richest man in Jeffolton City. All you have to do is beg, and I'll let you come back to me." I looked at him with a thin, distant smile. He still didn't know—whoever I marry would become the richest man in Jeffolton City.

She was never supposed to catch his attention. She was never supposed to survive it either. When Aria crosses paths with Cassian Virelli, a ruthless man who owns power like a birthright, her life fractures in ways she never imagined. Cassian doesn’t pursue—he claims. And once he decides she is his, walking away is no longer an option. To Cassian, Aria is fragile. Beautiful. Breakable. A woman meant to bend beneath his control. But Aria carries scars of her own, and beneath her silence lies a strength forged by pain, not weakness. The more Cassian tries to dominate her world, the more she threatens to unravel his carefully constructed darkness. What begins as possession turns into obsession. What was meant to break her slowly begins to expose him. In a world where love is dangerous, trust is a weapon, and power always demands a price, Mine to Break is a dark, intense romance about control, resistance, and the thin line between destruction and devotion. Because some hearts are not meant to be broken… And some monsters were never meant to fall in love.

“I cannot. . .

The last thin strand of will escaped my lips in a form of question. “Why me? I am no one in your world…” He bit my earlobe and I couldn’t hide the moan that didn’t want to stay hidden anymore. “Oh, you are wrong. You are someone,” he said in such a cold tone it made me shiver. He then flipped me in one swift move, making me face him, my head tilted up to meet his eyes. “I just haven’t decided what you are to me yet.” And he crushed my lips, and I gave in to his hunger. - Stalked, betrayed, and silenced by those she once trusted, she’s swept into the deadly orbit of Rowan Hill, a ruthless mafia king who now has his eyes on her.
