I’m Andromeda VanDoren, otherwise known as Persephone VanDoren’s older sister or the family’s embarrassment. For years I’ve tried to outrun my past, leaving a whole bunch of chaos in my wake. But I’m done running. I return home to Sweet Water fully prepared to do whatever it takes to pay for my past sins. Little did I know that would include working for the once-love-of-my-life James Harlowe. He’s everything I don’t deserve. Compassionate, funny, and good down to his core. But I ruin things, and the last thing I want to be is his mistake. If we can’t prove this love is worth fighting for, we’ll lose our chance at a happily ever after for good this time.
How could I marry the granddaughter of the monster who murdered my entire family? After I took my revenge on the patriarch of the O’Connell mob, there was only one choice. Marry Aisling O’Connell and solidify my new empire. Even if I have to drag her kicking and screaming to the altar. And after seeing the rage and hate in her green eyes, I know that’s exactly how this is going to turn out. She has every reason to hate me. But she’s still going to be mine.
After escaping an abusive relationship, all I wanted was to focus on my career. The last thing I needed was to get involved with another man— Let alone three of them! Determined to stand on my own, I tried to resist their charm. But when my vengeful ex turned stalking into his new obsession, The Beckett brothers insisted on keeping me safe within their shared home. As I found myself living with all three of them, our chemistry became undeniable, And they assured me that I didn’t need to choose just one.
Everyone has trauma therapy can’t fix. Nothing can save me from what I am. Nothing can save… them. I’ll always be a… FREAK… just ask Mother.
He’s my best friend’s older brother. My boss. And now my new roommate… In the hospital, death always comes in threes. Apparently, so do mistakes. Mistake number one? My fiancé, who I just learned is cheating on me. So much for being the strong, in control doctor who’s always on top of her game… Mistake number two? Knocking on the wrong door.
She was the one who got away. Or rather, snuck away. Now she’s back… And needs a favor from me. I need a favor from her. But I don’t trust her. Keep your enemy close, isn’t that the saying? I help her with her favor if she plays my doting wife. How much closer than married can we be?
My father thinks I need a life outside of owning the Vancouver Tigers professional football team. He has an offer for the team if I can’t marry in time. Steve McCormick may be my only hope. I’m sure I can talk him into if he wants to keep his job with the Tigers. But how can I protect my heart?
I wasn’t looking for a relationship. I wasn’t looking for anything. But my parents went behind my back and arranged a marriage. Scrap that. They arranged a nightmare. And there’s no way out of it. A contract is in place, and I’m set to marry the man New York has dubbed The Ice Prince. He’s cold, calculated, and a downright classhole. That’s right. Someone with a bit of class but an absolute —hole. Girls might be fooled by those sexy sky-blue eyes, but I won’t. Until I move in with him.
The world’s worst meet cute—I walk in on him slitting a throat. I run like hell, but he really loves the chase…judging by my body’s reaction, so do I. He kidnaps me, thinking I’m someone else, but when he finds out the truth, I manage to convince him to hire me as his maid instead of offing my ass. He’s dangerous, deadly, and the man never cracks a smile. He’s also gorgeous, sinfully sexy, and ridiculously protective. I shouldn’t want him. I shouldn’t love the dark, raw hunger I see in his eyes. And I definitely shouldn’t taunt and tease him. The truth is Volodya is more beast than man, and I want to see him lose control. I want to be the one to send him to his knees.
