Bryce is too hot for his own good.
And why does he smile so much?
When we’re paired up on a university project, I want to scream.
There’s no way to change it. Well, no legal way. And my hacking days are behind me.
Mostly.
The sparks fly hot and fast as we work together, but Bryce isn’t the guy for me.
I don’t even like him. At all.
But after one smokin’ kiss I can’t stop thinking about him.
Damn it. Falling for a tattoo artist isn’t in my plan.
Good thing I’ve always been terrible at following the rules.

I’m too screwed up for love, but a chance to explore a side of myself I didn’t realize existed until recently is too good to pass up.
But the more I get to know Julian, the more I start to think I might not be beyond saving after all…

Fire doesn’t always destroy…
Cassian:
I’d been okay living the life of a hermit with just my semlee for company. But when helping my best friend find his mate led me to the town of Mistvale, I knew my days of being alone were coming to an end.
The pull I felt to the town could only be one thing. After more than a century of being alone, I might finally find my semnyar, my mate.
But what did I do when I found him buried in the basement of the house I’d just bought? Or when I realized that he was a vampire, the species that was the most susceptible to my fire, to my magic that had already taken everything from me?
Gustave:
When I woke up in a strange room with my mate hovering over me, it took me a moment to remember what had happened, what had been done to me. My sire had forced me into the eternal sleep. I’d slept in 1880 and woken up almost a century and a half later.
The bright side was, I had been woken up by my mate and as long as we were together, I knew I’d be able to find my way in this strange new world.
But how did I make Cassian see that his fears were unfounded, that he’d never hurt me? How did I make him understand what being fated mates really meant?

Trevor
There’s no manual on how to be a rock star and a single dad, but I’m pretty sure it doesn’t involve having the hots for the nanny.
Oops…too late.
Just like most people, my college days were spent making mistakes and experimenting, and that inlcuded two pretty big events in my life:
- Having a son with my college girlfriend.
- Finding out I like guys when I spent Seven Minutes in Heaven with my crush, Dean.
Now, I have made something of myself, travelling in a bus around the country, making a living off my music, but I also still have to be a dad. And when my son’s mother does something noble – like join the military, of course I say I’ll look after our son. But the road isn’t easy with a kid.
So, my manager helps me hire a nanny. Only, the nanny is none other than Dean, my college crush.
This just got interesting.
