Beautiful monsters wear the most alluring disguises... and the deadliest one just walked into my gallery. As a successful gallery owner in Boston, I thought I knew who I was. Then Nikolai Ivanov walked into my life, and everything changed.

One glance from Hunter Reed, and my world ignited. The only problem? He's now my stepsister's fiancé. A misunderstanding led my stepfather to arrange Hunter's marriage to Olivia, when Hunter had actually been asking about me.

I've always prided myself on seeing through people's bullshit. But Dmitri Ivanov? He's a puzzle I can't solve.

I've spent years building my tech empire, determined to escape my family's criminal legacy. But when the Ivanov brothers take me captive to control my father, all my careful plans crumble. My jailer, Erik Ivanov, is nothing like I expected.

I've made a career of being invisible. Until I met him. Alexei Ivanov. The "Ghost" of the dark web. Digital prince of the Ivanov crime empire. Brilliant. Volatile. Irresistible. Breaking into his systems was supposed to be revenge. Instead, I found an addiction.

Er mag gefährlich sein, aber ich kann dem Drang nicht widerstehen, ihn Daddy zu nennen. Ein geheimer Fetisch, den ich noch nie ausgelebt habe, zieht mich in einen Underground-Club. Meine neue Freundin und Kollegin ist dort regelmäßiges Mitglied und überzeugt mich, ihm beizutreten.

He's forbidden, off-limits, yet I'm irresistibly drawn to him. Niall Fitzpatrick, my brother's best friend, has always been there, from childhood on the streets. I never saw him as anything more than a loyal friend until one fateful night.

I've admired him from afar for years, until he shows his true colors. Dante Ortega has played guitar at the club I work at ever since I started. His band is famous in New York City. One night, I find out the gorgeous guitarist has a very dark secret.

He’s spent years tormenting me, but now he wants to own me.

One drunken night lands me in bed with Enzo d’Angelo. A stunning man who gives me the best night of my life. I don’t expect to see him again, it was a one-night thing. Little did I know that he is my new boss and a mob boss. His assistant dealt with the hiring.

I chased after a monster, and now I’m not sure I’ll survive his wrath. Gavril Nitkin is renowned for his dark and depraved ways. After years of crushing on the hot, sadistic, and intimidating professor, I finally try to reel him in. Big mistake. The man isn’t human, he’s a beast.

He’s evil incarnate, cloaked in a beautiful disguise. My father uprooted our family, forcing me to relocate to America. If that wasn’t bad enough, he’s making me marry the son of a psychopath. Maxim Volkov. Heir to the Volkov Bratva.

He has stolen me from my fiancé and claims I belong to him now. Piero Panarello was going to be my husband. Handsome. Charming. Rich. I’d started to fall for him until out of nowhere I’m stolen by his enemy. Cillian Hook. Equally handsome, but not so charming.

I made a mistake, and now he wants to punish me. Everyone knows better than to steal from a Romano, but I was desperate. I was so close to getting away with it as well. I had one foot out the door, and I was hauled back into the club by security.

Aida and Gia convince me to join them for a getaway in Boston. With my parents away in Hong Kong, I agree without hesitation. Little do I know it will be a decision I come to regret. I'm snatched from the bar we're drinking at.

He’s hiding a dark secret, one that will change my life forever. I shouldn’t be here. Forced to move school partway through my senior year. The Syndicate Academy is the embodiment of everything I hate. An academy for heirs of tyrants like my parents.

Kane Romano is the most handsome, powerful man I’ve ever met. He’s also the man holding me captive. My asshole of a step-dad found himself on the wrong side of the mafia, and then offered me up in exchange for his life. How does he have the right....

He’s my dirty secret, one I don’t think I can hide much longer. Killian Callaghan has haunted my fantasies for years. Ever since we attended the Syndicate Academy. He’s sinfully gorgeous, covered in tattoos, and totally off limits.

Archer Daniels is the biggest flirt at the academy, and he’s determined to have me. Coach Daniels has a history of sleeping with students. Now that I’m in my senior year, he’s determined to add me to the list. I’d rather die than end up another notch in his bedpost.

My line of work lands me in bed with criminals more often than I’d like. When an Italian mobster hires me to investigate a murder, it leads me to him. Yuri Lenkov, rumored assassin for the Bratva.
