Synopsis:
She has a secret.
I’m complicated. Not broken or
ruined or running from a past I can’t face. Just complicated.
I thought my life couldn’t get any more tangled in deceit and confusion. But I hadn’t met him. I hadn't realized how far I could fall or what I'd do to get free.
He has a secret.
I’ve never pretended to be good or deserving. I chase who I want, do what I want, act how I want.
I didn’t have time to lust after a woman I had no right to lust after. I told myself to shut up and stay hidden. But then she tried to run. I’d tasted what she could offer me and damned if I would let her go.
One secret destroys them.

Excerpt:
It was the best kiss I’d ever
received, but also the worst. It sparked lust and need in every inch of me. My
lips wanted more, my tongue wanted savagery. My skin wanted to bruise because
he needed to touch me so badly.
All my thoughts disappeared as I nipped
at his bottom lip. He flinched, but a second later he copied, his sharp canines
piercing my oversensitive flesh.
I moaned.
I couldn’t take it.
My hands flew up and gripped his
shirt. Yanking him toward me, fireworks whizzed in my fingertips; my heart
galloped toward exploding with lust. I’d never been so drunk on someone before.
Then I landed flat on my back.
The crack of my skull jangled my teeth.
The thick carpet did little to cushion me. My eyes flared wide and I grunted in
pain. Fear, hot and terrible, swamped my lust in a dampening wave.
“Top rule. Unbreakable rule. Don’t. Ever.
Touch. Me.” Fox kneeled on one knee beside my head, breathing hard. His hand
noosed my throat, pressing my spine into the carpet. His eyes were cold and
lifeless, looking like a hunter intent on blood. –HAZEL
Deleted Scene:
With a savage push, I chimed the
doorbell and waited.
And waited.
And fucking waited.
I pressed it again.
Finally scuffling sounded on the
other side of the door before it was cracked open. The safety chain stayed
across.
I growled, “Where is she, Corkscrew?
I need to talk to her.”
Corkscrew gritted his jaw. His dark
skin and black eyes looked like the gatekeeper from hell. “She told me not to
let her near her.”
Shaking my head, I said, “That isn’t
an option. I just want to talk.” Swiping a hand over my face, keeping my temper
in check I added, “I need to apologise for before.”—ROAN
