Hawke Ivanov is known to excel at two things. Sex and violence. Itβs why I never took our fling seriously, accepting it with no strings attached.
Except now, his mischievous ways have become all-consuming, and Iβm his new obsession, especially after one night that changed everything between us.
Hawke is using me to run away from his own demons, and when I realize itβs not only matters of our bodies but hearts as well, I tell him sweet little lies to keep him away.
All I wanted was a good boy in my bed. The last thing I needed was a dangerous man carving his way into my heart, especially when he was the one to be feared the most.






USA Today Best Selling Author T.L. Smith loves to write her characters with flaws so beautiful and dark you canβt turn away. Her books have been translated into several languages. If you donβt catch up with her in her home state of Queensland, Australia you can usually find her travelling the world, either sitting on a beach in Bali or exploring Alcatraz in San Francisco or walking the streets of New York.
Australian Author, Kia Carrington-Russell is known for her recognizable style of kick a$$ heroines, fast-paced action, enemies to lovers and romance that dances from light to dark in multiple genres including Fantasy, Dark and Contemporary Romance.
Obsessed with all things coffee, food and travel, Kia is always seeking out her next adventure internationally. Now back in her home country of Australia, she takes her Cavoodle, Sia along morning walks on beautiful coastline beaches, building worlds in the sea breezes and contemplating which deliciously haunting story to write next.
