"Zac
I stopped believing in the good a long time ago. My childhood was stripped from me one dark night and I was forever changed. Everywhere I looked I saw evil. Everyone I met, I looked at them as the enemy. It took a long time for me to open up and when I did I found my family. The only people I could count on. I never imagined I'd have a family. Because having a family gave me something to lose and I never wanted to feel that pain again. I never wanted to feel weak.

If there is a disaster, I can be found in the center of it. If there is a wrong choice to be made, I'm first in line. I mess everything up. I'm a magnet for disaster, and when I had the chance, I stumbled right into the arms of a tattooed bad boy. One I knew could destroy me. He wasn't looking for anything more than one night and here I am, telling him he's now tied to me forever. Like I said, I'm a mess.

"Nothing comes easy. Nothing is given but must always be earned.
The problem is I'm too tainted and broken to have anything good. That was a lesson I was taught early. A lesson I carried throughout my life, and into every relationship I had.
I did not trust. Trusting meant I was vulnerable, and when you let your guard down, that's when all the dark shit seeps in. That's when the demons attack.
Nothing good happens in the dark.
But, Aurora, she was the sun, there was a goodness about her. I knew if I didn't let her go, I would dim her light and chip away at the wonderful person she was. It's what I did, what I've always done. I take the good and break it.
But no one told me letting her go would be one of the hardest things I've ever had to face.

"Sammy
After high school, three things mattered to me: my sister Sevenya, my drum kit, and my surfboard. With Sevenya in the passenger seat, we hightailed it to Los Angeles so I could chase my rock 'n' roll dreams. But I left a part of my heart on the beach.
Just as the Blind Rebels were gaining popularity, I suffered a crushing loss. One I didn't think I'd ever recover from. I tried running to the ocean for solace, only for an accident to turn it against me.
Melody
When it comes to relationships, I've learned it's best to keep my distance. Heartache takes many forms, so I've avoided it by perfecting the art of not getting too close. Instead, I focus on my career as a fire paramedic to help others, to make up for the one I couldn't save.
When I saw the surfer go down in the water, my instincts and training kicked in. I never expected that the life I'd be saving off-duty would be that of my high school sweetheart. He broke my heart then. I keep his beating now. Haunted by pains of our pasts, we're left wondering if a second chance is even possible after all these years.

"The only mistake I made was walking away instead of facing the man whose heart I broke.
I ran away from the life I wasn't ready for, and in the process, lost everything I wanted.
I tried to move on and failed epically.
There's no moving on from Jake Findlay. Even if he thinks I have.
Now that I'm home, I've got to fight my own battles and prove that I'm all grown up.
Even if it means letting him in to break me all over again.

"Wild child bartender Wyatt Hart has a full plate. Her younger sister came home from college pregnant, and her mother just showed up fresh from prison.
So when a rare free evening at a roadside bar turns into a chance encounter with Owen McBride, local pediatrician and town golden boy, Wyatt knows better than to flirt with him. Or kiss him. Or follow the surprisingly filthy-mouthed good boy out to his truck. Wyatt doesn't do relationships, after all, and Owen is the floor model of a boyfriend guy.
But when that one night quickly turns into flirty banter and fiery stolen moments, Owen promises Wyatt that he doesn't need a relationship. He just needs her.
Everyone in town can tell that the bartender and the pediatrician are more than a fling, but that doesn't stop Wyatt and Owen from lying to themselves . . . and each other. But Wyatt's fear of relationships is about to catch up with her, and the town golden boy is harboring a secret that might undo him.

"He's a grumpy bad boy with a chip on his shoulder the size of the state. He's dark, broody, sexy as hell, and he knows it.
I shouldn't want him so badly. He barely knows I'm alive.

Once the clothes come off and secrets are revealed . . . there's no going back. We both know we're careening toward a disaster by falling into bed again.
But one taste wasn't enough. It's more like an appetizer for a meal with an endless number of courses.
And I'm a starving woman.

"Taking candids turned into so much more...
Marriage never looked easy on the outside looking in, but with Simon, life had been better than ever. I found my soulmate in a man who cared for me, loved me feverishly, and protected me against all odds. But regardless of the love we shared for each other, our eyes often roamed to others. Even at night, when we spent time in each other's arms, we mused over the ideas of what it would be like to explore happily again, while remaining committed to each other.
But fear always held us back.
Then they entered the picture.
Nyx. Asher. And Rhodes.
Our best friends.
One daring video to my husband later, and I found myself at the mercy of all four of them days later. All under the disguise of their cosplays’ personas—the outfits and attitudes that started it all in the first place.
Taking candids turned into so much more...
What if we can’t go back to just friends?
Even if it was just supposed to be one night of fun."

"Decker Brooks is hockey's bad boy, and he's about to spend his summer in the penalty box.
When his off-ice antics lead to on-ice trouble, The Chicago Grinders give Decker Brooks an ultimatum: stay out of trouble in the off-season, or he's off the team. So he decides to spend the summer in his hometown, laying low and hanging with his childhood best friend Archer. Cardinal Springs, Indiana is so boring that not even Decker Brooks can get in trouble there.
But then one bar fight and a community service sentence turn his summer—and his hockey career—upside down.
Grace has always hated her big brother's best friend. Unfortunately, he's the menace who's just been assigned to complete his community service at the library where Grace runs the children's programming. And Grace does not have time to wrangle a playboy jock who can't keep his hands to himself.
It doesn't take long for their reluctant partnership to turn into a no-strings-attached fling. But as the summer heats up, it's getting harder to keep their growing feelings on ice. Unfortunately, the clock is ticking down on their relationship, and Grace and Decker will have to decide what—and who—matters most.

"Rules.
Some people say they are meant to be broken, but not these ones.
These are designed to protect me, to make sure I never feel the pain I did almost ten years ago.
The dull but present pain I still feel every time my past taunts me.
From the loyalties that have remained broken, I built my walls high and tall, creating these rules to make sure all hearts, most of all mine, will stay guarded.
That was the plan at least, until she came along."
"I've never been the kind of girl to take the easy way out. Happy endings never came to people like me. The tarnished ones.
I'm surrounded by a group that knows sadness too well. We know what it's like to lose and be tossed away like last night's trash. We are easy to blame for all the wrongs, because when others look at us, they see our scars. Most of our stories are told in the ink we bear, but we wear those tales proudly.
Oliver Riggins is the first man I've run across that made me feel like I could have more. But he's also one of the many men who are more family to me than my own flesh and blood. Four brothers by choice, they've taken me in, and treated me as one of their own. The problem is, I've always wanted more from Oliver.
I've felt an instant connection to him from the first day I walked into Deranged Ink. But the fear of ruining what we have and then in the end not having him at all, that was too hard to bear. So instead, I've sat back and watched the parade of women in his life, but I feel a little part of me crumble away.
I want him, I've always wanted him. Maybe it's time I stop running.
Maybe it's time I start fighting for the things I want.
