ASHER

ASHER

I’m not a f***ing babysitter

 

I’m a goddamn outlaw. I’ve got better things to do. People to kill. And women to f***.

Getting stuck with some babysitting job? Might as well put a bullet in my head now.

 

But when I saw Jenny.

When I got a taste of her fiery temper.

A glimpse of her curves.

             

I knew there was nothing else I wanted.

 

She thinks she can use me.

She thinks she’s the one calling the shots.

 

She couldn’t be more wrong.

I’m going to remind her just who’s the boss here.

 

And after I tear down all her walls.

I’m going to make her MINE

 

JENNY

All I wanted was revenge.

 

But all I got was a bodyguard and a stern warning to stay out of it all.

 

All I got was Asher.

 

He’s a rough criminal—a stone cold outlaw made of nothing but hard muscles, dark tattoos, and testosterone.

 

I thought I could use him to get what I want.

I thought I could use him for revenge.

 

I couldn’t have been more wrong.

 

MONSTER

A president’s got a reputation to keep.

 

Blake

I’ve got blood on my hands, more scars than tats.

I don’t love. I f*** and forget.

 

When I see Lauren on that auction block…

Something inside of me snapped.

 

I’m the last thing she wants.

But I’m the only hope she’s got.

 

Because out here, might is right.

 

And she can either jump in bed with a monster to live...

… or get tossed to the devils to die.

 

Lauren

I wasn’t supposed to end up here:

On an auction block in front of a jeering crowd.

 

And then I see him.

The monster who’ll claim me.

 

A man whose hard tattooed body is matched only by his ruthlessness.

A man who terrifies me.

 

And when he looks in my eyes…

 

I can practically hear him growl.

Feel his rough hands on my curves.

His scarred body pressed against mine.

 

And the words keep echoing in my ear:

“Don’t forget. You’re MINE”

 

CAIN

The last thing I wanted was a kid

 

I spend my days cheating death and my nights laying pipe. There’s nothing I love more than a good one night stand. Settling down wasn’t in my blood.

 

But that was before Alexandra.

 

A firecracker in bed with a fiery attitude to match.

I’d never fallen harder for anyone else.

 

Until I knocked her up and everything changed.

 

She thinks I’m a monster.

A criminal.

A thug.

 

She thinks she can keep my kid from me.

 

I’m going to get her back.

I’m going to make her pay.

 

And when her voice’s broken from screaming my name, I’m going to make her
MINE

 

WRONG

I’m not supposed to want him.

 

He’s dangerous, but just thinking about his rock hard body turns my knees to water. He’s an inked thug on the wrong side of the law.

 

A bad boy biker who stares at me like I’m naked.

 

Like I’m his property.

 

Like I want him.

 

The scariest thing is…

 

… he’s right.

 

---

I’m not what she’s looking for

 

 

I’ve never looked for love, never wanted a relationship, and never acquired the taste for settling down.

 

I’ll leave you breathless, but don’t expect me to stay. I’m the master of one-night stands, the king of hit it and quit it.

 

Until Lena.

 

She’s off-limits, forbidden. But that’s exactly what makes me want her more. She drives me wild with her long legs that I want wrapped around me, her full curves that are begging for my touch—and every time I look at her, all I want is to take her again and again and again.

 

I see the way she looks at me.

 

I know she wants the same thing.

 

I will claim her, and no one will keep us apart.

 

***

HARD

The devil wants me in his bed, and there's nothing that'll stand in his way

 

The word average was never something he was good at. He didn't have a normal job or a normal life. Instead, he does what he's best at: take control of everything and everyone around him.

 

Tonight, he's got his eyes on me.

 

He doesn't care that my perfect flawless life has no room for a tatted up devil biker.

 

He doesn't care that I might be making a terrible mistake.

 

He just wants me. I can tell from the way he's staring at me.

 

And I f*****g love it.
