Wall Street Journal and USA Today Bestselling author Ryan Michele brings the explosive, second chance romance between three strong willed people who need each other more than they ever realized.
The past never stays in the past…
Worlds collide in a single moment.
Nyx couldn’t hide in the shadows any longer. She had a plan, but it all went up in smokes engulfing her in a twisted mess of chaos staring her in the face.
Raid knew Ravage. Lived for it because family was everything. His protective streak was intense even by Ravage standards and Nyx was now under that umbrella, like it or not.
Liam swore he’d stay away, never look for the woman who grabbed his heart only to keep her safe. Unfortunately, he had to break that promise.
What he didn’t expect was to see a man from his past with the woman he once called his.
Nothing was simple in this twisted love affair between these three souls. Anger, passion and chemistry explodes into fireworks.
One thing was for certain, danger was around the corner and if they didn’t figure things out…not only them, but the Ravage MC would never be the same.

𝐀𝐁𝐎𝐔𝐓 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐊 I’ve never had a life. I’m not talking about the freedom money can buy because I have that in spades. I’m talking about the freedom a girl gets from growing up with four overprotective Del Rossa men…which is zero.
Zero freedom to have a social life. Zero freedom to date. No guy dares to glance my way. I’m Dark Sovereign property in this town, and everyone knows you don’t touch what belongs to the Del Rossas.
Fifteen years ago, I was a lost little orphan. The Del Rossa family took me in, cared and raised me like I was their own. But not him.
Not Nicoli.
He’s always treated me differently. Like I don’t belong in their world. Like I’m this temporary thing they shouldn’t get attached to.
Maybe I should be thankful that he ignores me most of the time. But for some stupid reason…I’m not.
Whenever he looks my way, I can’t seem to breathe right. When he’s close, I’m a mess on two feet.
But Nicoli has made it crystal clear that the girl he grew up with is a hard limit for him. I’m the one woman he’ll never touch…
…not even if I beg him to.

★★★★★ Amazon Review – “Instalove + Riot Biloxi MC = Hours of Fun Reading”
★★★★★ Sexy Sirens Book Blog – “Outstanding addition to the series!!!”
★★★★★ Beautifully READ – “I loved this book from page one (which is usually the case with the author’s books).”
As a single mom of a teenage boy, I work hard to keep life routine and regular. From the moment I meet Tiny, a member of the Riot MC, my whole life is turned upside down. When this hulking, sexy biker whisks me away from a farewell party to protect me from my abusive ex-boyfriend, the last place I expect to be is inside Tiny’s studio apartment.
It’s the best option to keep me safe, but there’s only one bed. He refuses my offer to sleep on the floor. Having just met me, he makes it clear we’ll just sleep.
We make it through the night, but I’m fighting my attraction to him.
He insists on following me home in the morning, except a police officer is waiting at my car to question us. A bizarre instinct kicks in and I kiss him to make the police think we’re an item.
It’s a ruse. A ploy.
It’s also perfect. And delicious.
The officer retreats, but Tiny swoops in – my kiss ignited something in him.
What should have been just one night at his apartment turns into a whirlwind affair.
He’s protective and determined to claim me.
Insta-love some call it.
It feels insta-crazy.
But life is crazy and I’m getting crazier about this man by the day. Only one problem… when my obsessive ex-boyfriend threatens Tiny, we’re put to the test.
I won’t let him get hurt, even if it means I have to sacrifice my happiness.
Tiny and his Riot MC brothers have other ideas though. Nobody threatens their family and gets away with it.

Tropes: Single Mother/Forced Marriage/Mafia Themes
Release Date: June 1, 2023
BLURB
My one-night stand.
A ruthless bastard.
A heartless billionaire.
The man who ruled his empire with a cold head and an even colder heart. And most importantly, my son’s father. Except, he wasn’t aware of that little fact. To the media, Byron is the Billionaire King. To me, he’s a reminder of the hottest, most forbidden, night of my life. And my biggest mistake.
I hadn’t seen him in years and hoped we’d never cross paths again.
But then, my best-laid plans always seem to go astray. Now, I need his help to bail me out of trouble. He’s a billionaire and I’m just a broke, debt-riddled surgeon.
Against my better judgment, I sought him out. It should have been easy, in and out. Except, nothing with Byron Ashford was ever easy. He refuses to hand out free favors. And the price for his help?
My freedom. Literally.
He wants to shackle me to him with a marriage I don’t want, then throw away the key.
His demands are scandalous. His rules are dangerous for my heart.
It was supposed to be a mutually beneficial deal but nothing about Byron is ever that simple. Once he slips the ring onto my finger, the rules change.
His demands grow. He no longer just wants to own my body. He also wants my heart and soul. But I’m not that young, naive woman anymore.
Too bad this billionaire forgot one thing. Nobody can own your heart unless you give it freely.

Hooking up with the college freshman I was supposed to keep an eye on was easier than tracking her. Kidnapping her after that first night was easier than following her around campus. I’m massive, scarred, and tattooed. I don’t exactly fit in with her crowd. After the job was done, cutting her loose was the hard part. Making it through the day without seeing her became impossible. Some may call it stalking, but I call it vigilance. She seems invested in this game of cat and mouse we’re playing, but she’s mistaken. I’m not a toy she can discard when she’s bored. Trying to get her out of my system may leave us both in pieces.
Let’s see…where to begin… I’m a full-time author, mother of two boys, and wife of 18+ years. Dog Mom to four great danes: Maximus, Nala, Freya, and Hagrid. I’ve spent almost my entire lifetime living in central Texas, with only short stays in South Carolina, Alabama, and Florida. Currently residing in a sleepy little town in East Tennessee. Writing is my passion, and I absolutely love being able to sit down and put all of my thoughts and emotions into my stories. I love dogs, coffee, making handmade cards, and steamy romance novels!

★★★★★ Goodreads Review – “This was action packed, suspenseful, dramatic, and chemistry filled. A thrilling read with all the right elements. I love this series.”
Growing up as the youngest Doughty meant missing out on a normal life.
I didn’t want the life I was dealt, but I also felt I had no choice except to embrace my legacy. My family had targets placed on their backs, simply because of our name and the power we held, so I knew I had to be ready for anything that came my way.
Being sent to boarding school was a way to protect me—and get me away from the very life I didn’t want—but it also brought me something else.
Shane.
My brothers took him in, and I chased away the nightmares that came with his tortured past, ignoring the burning desire I knew was there, because I didn’t want to ruin our fast-found friendship.
Now though? He’s severed the very bond I tried so hard to protect in the most brutal betrayal.
He went from being my best friend to my enemy, and now I want answers.

MY REVIEW: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 out of 5
I’ve loved Shane and Ryleigh since we started to see them in the books prior. They have a unique relationship and their story was just as unique and worth the wait to read. These two are best friends, but they are both denying their real feelings for each other. Waiting for the other to recognize something different. Until that happens they will remain best friends, but can they survive the changes that are coming? Will there be betrayal or redemption in this story?
Shane has to become Vinnie again, but will he let Vinnie really take over his life? Ryleigh needs Shane in her life as her person, and when their lives become very complicated due to their situation things could get out of hand.
I loved this story and the twists, turns, and surprises that were revealed in this story. I have loved reading the Beautifully Brutal series from the start and I am looking forward to remaining books in the series. Their getting better with each story and I am intrigued to read more.
NYT Bestselling Author A.L. Jackson has the prologue AND first chapter of her upcoming single dad, enemies-to-lovers romance, Love Me Today, available to read now. Coming May 29th!
Energy crackled through the dim-lit hall.
Tension binding the oxygen in attraction and need.
Every-fucking-thing I could no longer ignore as I stared at her where she hovered in front of her door.
“Caleb.” My name barely hit the air.
At the sound of it, I broke.
I crossed the space. No restraint left.
My hand dove into her hair at the side of her head, and I curled the other around her waist and tugged her against me.
We collided in a torrent of greed.
Mouths and tongues and spirits that no longer knew how to exist without the other.
We spun, gripping at each other, desperate to erase every inch of space as I kissed her.
Kissed her with a madness that burned me to the soul.
This woman who’d scored herself into the places I wasn’t supposed to let her go.
Because I knew what I brought into the lives of the people I cared about.
I knew the price they paid.
And I should have known what touching her would cost…
“Little girl, I’m only going to ask one more time…”
