Trent
How do you go home when home is gone?
I’ve paid my dues for protecting someone I love.
In return my family, my life, and my freedom—all taken from me.
When a friend calls in a favor, I go from nothing…to having a job and a place to live.
A fresh start brings something more; a woman who brings out my protective instincts.
She’s been hurt—it’s written all over her.
There’s one thing for sure, I want her.
And I vow that nothing will ever harm her again.
Michelle
I’ve hit rock bottom, and I’ve slowly climbed my way back up.
Now, I keep myself locked away. It’s easier than letting people in and telling them about that night.
I live my life in the shadows because happiness is something that I can’t have.
I keep my pain where it belongs, in the past. I keep my secrets buried deep down.
Now my past is colliding with my future, and I’m not sure how I’m going to survive.
But in the midst of the darkness is a shining light: Trent.
Sometimes you find home in the place you least expect it.

Kyce
 
Let’s face it—relationships are hard work, full of compromises and sacrifices I’m not interested in doing. I have no desire to be in once since having my heart trampled on. Cliché, I know, but that’s why I stick to sex only.
Best way to live.
Except everything changes when I’m kissed by a stranger.
One night.
That’s all it was supposed to be.
Friends with benefits.
Only that wasn’t going to be enough.
Life couldn’t get any better…until I broke the rules.
When feelings begin to tangle inside me more than our bodies between the sheets, that’s when everything changed.
 
 
Jolie 
 
I hate men.
All of them.
Being left at the altar has left a nasty reminder in my heart to never get involved again. Swearing off men was easy after everything I’ve been through.
In a moment of desperation, I snatched a stranger by his arm and planted one on him.
It was perfect.
His lips.
The way he felt under my hands.
Everything about him was perfect.
Friends with exceptional benefits has never been so phenomenal.
He turned my life upside down.
Alone, I fell for him. Unrequited love is torture, especially when you have to keep it a secret, so you don’t lose him.
I messed up…I should’ve kept my stupid heart out of it. Now I’m scared of losing the one man I didn’t want to begin with.
 
There’s absolutely no way I can tell him how I feel…right?

As Satan’s Fury’s sergeant-at-arms, it was my job to stay one step ahead. It was up to me to make sure the club was ready when things went awry. I had to anticipate our enemies’ every move and plan accordingly. I couldn’t let Murphy’s Law bite me in the ass, so I created a set of rules to follow.

• Always have your brother’s back.

 

• Don’t make promises you can’t keep.

 

• Don’t buy into other people’s bullshit.

 

• Never let your emotions rule you.

I wanted to make her mine, but having her meant breaking my rules—every last one of them.
