MINE TO PROTECT. MINE TO PUNISH. MINE.

I'm a lone wolf, and I like it that way. Banished from my birth pack after a bloodbath, I never wanted a mate.



Then I meet Kylie. My temptation. We're trapped in an elevator together, and her panic almost makes her pass out in my arms. She's strong, but broken. And she's hiding something.



My wolf wants to claim her. But she's human, and her delicate flesh won't survive a wolf's mark.



I'm too dangerous. I should stay away. But when I discover she's the hacker who nearly took down my company, I demand she submit to my punishment. And she will.



Kylie belongs to me.

Hanging around is a bad idea, but I don't play by the rules. Amber acts all prim and proper, but she has a secret, too. She may not want her psychic abilities, but they're a gift.

I should let her go, but the way she fights me only makes me want her more. When she learns what I am, there's no escape for her. She's in my world, whether she likes it or not. I need her to use her gifts to help recover my missing sister--and I won't take no for an answer.

She's mine now.

The Bible -- as found in the extant ancient manuscripts in the original languages (Hebrew and Greek) and in Standard Bible Translations like the King James and American Standard Versions -- has proved to be an accurate and reliable document for thousands of years. Yet, in spite of the Bible's tried and true trustworthiness -- as well as the Bible's own warnings against adding to, subtracting from and changing its words -- there are still churches, cults and denominations that have sought to change its words and teachings to support their own peculiar sectarian beliefs by updating them with their allegedly inspired encyclicals, bibles and bible versions. THE JW BIBLE is a prime example of this scriptural fraud, and its false translations are EXPOSED IN THIS BOOK.

OWNED BY THE MAN I BETRAYED

Six years ago I uttered a lie that changed a man's life.

My father banished him from his bratva cell. From the country.

Now he's back to take my inheritance. My life. Not through murder, but marriage.

And my own father arranged it.

Maxim thinks he can make me submit to his will. He thinks he gets to call all the shots.

I wanted him once and he refused me. I won't fall for him again.

And I don't plan to cave.

Not even when he makes me tremble with need...

I own you now.

Desperate and alone, I strike a bargain with a mafia boss.

I make myself available to him, he pays my bills.

I'm his beck-and-call-girl. He's my sugar daddy.

Bobby Manghini owns me-that's our arrangement.

Giving myself to him is easy.

He may be older, but he's sinfully sexy. Skillful in bed.

It's a win-win for both of us, so long as I remember one thing:

Don't fall in love.

Bobby calls the shots, but he doesn't play for keeps.

I'm a toy, not his happily-ever-after.

The book is a lengthened and revised version of the previously published story Mob Mistress.

SHE BETRAYED MY FAMILY--I WILL MAKE HER PAY.

The sweet redhead in our building isn't as innocent as we thought.

She brought a Fed into our circle. Got my twin brother shot.

Now she will pay. I'm putting her in charge of nursing him back to health.

If he dies, she dies. That's what I told her, anyway.

Of course, I wouldn't actually harm her.

Our beautiful neighbor is already under my skin.

But that won't stop me from punishing her

then touching her in all the ways I vowed I wouldn't.

She's ruined my peace. Become a distraction I can't afford.

I want to keep her under my control...

I need to keep her out of my heart.

Nothing except her.

Week after week, I watch her band perform.

I can't get her out of my mind.

When my past catches up to me, she becomes a target.

The only way to save her is to lock her away.

Hold her prisoner until things blow over.

I can't talk.

YOU'RE AT MY MERCY NOW, AMORE.

Sorry, bella. You got dealt the losing hand.

Witness to a crime, you're my prisoner now.

I didn't mean for things to happen this way,

But tying you to my bed and making you scream

is an unexpected pleasure. A privilege, really.

And even if I did trust you, now that I've had a taste,

I'm not sure I'd let you go...

She's my captive. A witness to my crime. I'll never let her go.

I'm a desperate man. One week out of prison

and trouble found me again. When a mafia hitman comes after me,

I end him with my bare hands. But the beautiful florist witnesses my crime.

Now she's my prisoner. I can't let her go.

My soul's unsalvageable, forever living in a den of sin.

But the rest of me knows what it wants.

And I want her.

MY BRATVA BROTHER WILL KILL HIM IF HE TOUCHES ME.

Flynn Taylor, rock 'n roll heartthrob, plays fast and loose.

He's with different girls every night. Yes, girls plural.

On the brink of becoming not just a Chicago sensation, but an American icon,

he's everything I should avoid.

Then again, maybe it doesn't matter.

I'm so damaged, I'm not even capable of a relationship.

He might be the perfect antidote.

The temptation I need to lure me back to the side of the living.

He could help me get over my trauma. Attempt physical intimacy.

If it goes wrong-no harm, no foul, right?

If only I can keep my overprotective bratva brother from threatening

to kill him if he even touches me...
