"She ran from me...but she won't get far...
Pretty, plain Annalise Eden.
She's the one they secretly call 'the Ghost'.
The daughter of a man who's made my family millions.
Millions she stole thinking she's saving her father.
But she's wrong.
Wrong about it all...
About him.
About me.
Especially about me.
She's run to a place she thinks is safe.
An island that's heavily guarded in the middle of nowhere.
Filled with those like me...
Rich. Dangerous. Mafia.
But hiding amongst my kind won't save her.
I'll hunt her. I'll corner her. I'll claim her too.
I'll show her exactly who I am.
And when she falls for me she won't ever run from me again."
"There is no place to hide now.
No dark corner of this city where those who stand behind The Order can disappear.
They are exposed, hunted…but they aren’t vulnerable…not yet.
Protected by the most savage of us all…they bribe and scheme.
But no matter how loud their threats are, they know there’s no way out of this.
Because we have something they’ll never have.
A reason to fight…
Three of them actually.
Ryth.
Vivienne.
And Trouble.
The woman my brothers and I have fallen for.
They are the true Daughters of The Order.
The ones they can never tame.
Together with London St. James, his Sons and the Bank’s boys we will set fire to the Order’s world.
There’s only one place for them now. Hale, King…and our own sister.
That’s six feet under.
We’re about to put them there…then maybe…we can find out just how deep this love runs.
For all of us."
"She was a liar. A deceiver. A seductress.And now Helene King is a Daughter of the Order.
Under the guise she was headed for the place where Halestrom Hale held our sister she is forced into a truck.
Only that wasn’t where she was headed.
A new breed of evil rose. One that told us exactly what Hell waited for her.
With the cold, hard bite of steel at my head, my last hope lays in the only man who can help us now.
A loner.
A Commander.
The one we call The Hunter.
He is a ghost. A shadow. A trained, predatory protector with a team of ruthless men at his back.
I only hope his allegiance of blood is strong enough.
When he saves Helene and the other Daughters, he keeps her for himself.
He heals her. Protects her…
Even from us.
As my brothers and I race to find her, a new alliance forced upon us.
One we never imagined in a million years.
Tobias, Caleb and Nick Banks demand to join forces, alongside the merciless London St James and the killers he calls Sons.
Together we hunt.
We destroy.
And try to survive long enough to uncover the truth."
"Trouble. I hit it with my car…
Then I carried her home.
Taking care of her wounds with my own dark depravity. Her scars tell a story, burns, cuts…some old…but there are some wounds that are fresh. So fresh they tell a dangerous, intriguing tale. One I’m captivated to learn.
When she opened her eyes she didn’t recoil like the others. Instead, she told me her name.
Helene…
There is something about her. About the way she meets my stare. She’s not afraid of me.
Some dangerous part of me wants to keep it that way. Just this once...
When Halestrom Hale and the controlling fist clenches around me. I hide her in the only place I know. A place I can control. A place where I can watch her…
The Order.
When my brothers find out, they are furious. Everything we’ve worked for. All the lies we’ve told. All the sick, depraved things we’ve done. Could be all for nothing. If she tells. So all three of us make sure that she doesn’t whisper a thing. We keep her busy.
Every night…and all day long. And pray we make it out alive."
"They came....
They took....
Now it’s time to destroy them from the inside out. But first I need to get him back: my son, Colt. To do that, I send the two people I hold close back into The Order.
Colt’s vengeful twin, Carven.
And the woman I’ve fallen for...Vivienne.
As I watch them disappear inside that Hell, I call for war, forcing every powerful man and woman in the city to choose a side. Mine...or Halestrom Hale’s. Only when those I love return from that place, they bring back a look of horror. What Carven tell me sends me reeling. With our backs against the wall, an unexpected ally rears her head: Vivienne’s older sister Helene.
She might be more than my way to king. But she might just give me back my family. Together, we destroy all we can. We came for vengeance...and we won’t stop. Not until we’re together once more.
If there’s anything worth dying for, it’s love."
"I’ve been lied to, used, and played. The Order took something from me. My property. Vivienne. And now, she belongs to another man…Macoy Daniels.
The moment he signed that contract, he signed his own death warrant. With the sons, we track her down. Only when we get there, we find something unexpected. Her…savage and full of fury. We don’t call her wildcat for no reason.
I don’t know if I’m saving her from her abductor, or the other way around. All I know is I that want answers…and revenge.
I become the man I fought hard to leave behind. The cold, heartless mercenary. I’ll use, betray, and lie. Anything to keep her safe.
For her, we hunt. For her, we kill. And when we’re forced by Haelstom Hale for a trade, a contract for a life, I do the only thing that savage need to protect her allows....
I send Macoy Daniels back to Haelstom Hale in pieces."
"She's one defiant, forbidden, pain in my ass.
One I can't touch.
One I can’t train.
But Vivienne is mine. Body. Soul…
And most importantly, her bloodline.
None of them understand how important she is.
But I know.
My sons and I will protect that information - her - to the death to keep it for ourselves. So, she’ll remain here, under my roof…obeying my rules.
Resisting me at every goddamn opportunity.
Playing her defiant little games with our control.
Until I find my resolve slipping.
I’m cold, calculating.
But I'm a man who finds himself becoming obsessed with her.
And I’m not the only one.
I see the hunger in my son’s eyes.
See the way they react around her.
She won't be wearing red for us…
Because she won't be wearing anything at all.
I’ll take her downstairs…and show her exactly who is in control here.
I’ll show her what it’s like to be owned….
Owned is a dark age gap romance. The men in this story are cold, ruthless and intense and if you are sensitive to particular content make sure you check the warnings inside the book before you begin."
"My brother is bleeding.My stepsister is gone.
The ones responsible called themselves family.
By blood, and now by marriage.
I want to destroy them for what they’ve done.
Burn everything they have to the ground.
But first I need to find her.
Ryth.
The pathetic, little mouse that scurried into our lives and made a home.
I can’t forget her, can’t get her out of my head.
She unleashed something dangerous in me.
Something that drove me to ruin her.
And ruined myself in the process.
She was once a game to me…
She still is…only this time it’s for keeps."

"Family is everything…
I always knew my father was a cold, heartless bastard.
But the moment he took Elle Castlemaine and her pathetic daughter into our home, barely a month after our mom died, he unleashed something savage inside me.
I didn’t care they lost their home. Didn’t care their father was behind bars.
Didn’t care he betrayed the notorious Stidda Mafia boss, Benjamin Rossi, and now their lives were in danger.
All I cared about was her.
Ryth.
I wanted to hurt her. Wanted to make her squirm.
I wanted to make her pay for the moans coming from my father’s bedroom.
When he slipped a ring onto her mother’s finger, Ryth became mine.
Mine to bully.
Mine to break.
And I’ll use my brothers to do it.
She’ll become our favorite obsession.
Our sick, tormented game.
She’ll become the only thing I think about, until not thinking about her tears me apart.
I’ll hate her. I’ll hate her so much it hurts…"
"They’re sinful.Beautiful.Deadly.And more dangerous than the wolves who hunt us in the woods.
Three Vampires rule our world.
And now I find myself in their clutches.
Abducted in the dead of night, I’m taken to a market where eleven others like me are paraded in front of the Sinful.
The Vampires want the perfect companion. The one mortal who’ll not only sit beside them on the throne...but who’ll occupy their bed.
We’re to be judged, challenged...and selected one by one to continue the hunt.
They’ll punish us. They’ll seduce us.
They’ll take us from the light and leave us craving the dark.
Only I came with a secret of my own.
They are the monsters I hate...the monsters who killed my family eleven long years go.
I came for blood. I came for revenge, only as I’m drawn deeper into their deadly game my body starts to betray me.
I crave surrender. I lust for them.
I need to be the last one selected.
Can I go through with my plan? Or will I be claimed by the monsters I despise? "
"Their touch still burns my skin.
The memory of their lips as vivid as a summer squall...
...when darkness swallows me.
Hands over my mouth.
I’m taken by a coven of deadly Vampires.
Ones who will seek revenge on those I love.
But they aren’t the only beasts at my door.
Wolves come crashing through the walls and a new enemy rises.
One that shakes me to my core.
My enemy is here, one I’ve known forever.
And this time he’s not letting me go."
