She needs to prove the prophesy wrong, but her only ally is a seductive angel driven by revenge who may want to open the Hell Gate no matter what the price.

As Luke instructs Rori how to use her powers, he learns about redemption… and desire. When he is faced with a terrible choice, Luke realizes that his quest for revenge may ultimately save the world, but destroy the woman he loves. Read more of Forbidden Angel here.

Despite being scarred inside and out, Ava agrees to work with Graeme. He wants to prove that his brother Ethan is innocent and believes Ava is the key to the truth. Will Ava find passion and redemption through Graeme? Or is he only a means for her to locate Ethan and exact her revenge? Ava Camden is a thirty year old woman who struggles to come to terms with her slashed face, scarred by over two hundred stitches. She wants to remain hidden from the world, choosing to run a homeless shelter despite being born into a family of privilege and wealth. She believes she can conquer her fears by confronting them and is obsessed with collecting information on gruesome crimes. She haunts the streets at night. When she learns that her attacker has escaped from prison, the last person she wants to see is her attacker’s brother, Graeme Sapphire. He may be the means for her to locate Ethan and exact her revenge. He may be the key to discovering the truth about the night she was attacked. He may be the right temptation to turn her nights from fear to passion. Graeme Sapphire was born into a working class family, but turned himself into a successful owner of a luxury hotel chain.

After spending six years in seclusion, she wants the use of Graeme’s body in exchange for her time. He hasn’t touched a woman since his brother’s conviction, and he won’t let one night of passion with Ava distract him from his true goal—proving his brother innocent. In fact, he won’t stop with one night of passion at all, because he wants so many more. Read more of All Beautiful Things here. |
