Book Description
The rules are simple: Protect Jackson Hawthorne at all costs and do not let him get under my skin. One rule is much easier to follow than the other. I am no stranger to the shady rumors of the man I’m assigned to guard, but I am new to his charm. Undeniably tempted by his charisma and fearlessness. And Jackson makes it clear that he’s more concerned about seducing me than his safety, which is really inconvenient when there are fae and humans alike hellbent on destroying him. The only thing more dangerous than the people wanting to kill Jackson is the fact that despite my best efforts I find myself falling for him. I can protect Jackson from his enemies, but how do I protect my heart from him?

Book Description
Lila thought she had found the perfect love—a mysterious stranger who made her feel seen, special, and alive in ways she never imagined. But in the quiet town of Whitworth, appearances are deceiving, and the allure of eternal love masks a dark, predatory hunger. As Lila's world begins to unravel, friends disappear, and her family falls apart, she clings to the belief that Sebastian is her protector. But the truth is far more sinister, and Lila soon finds herself at the center of a chilling game of control and obsession—where the price of love is nothing less than her soul. A gripping tale of twisted romance and horror, Twisted Devotion explores the terrifying line between love and possession, where a charming smile hides a monstrous truth. Some loves are meant to destroy—and not every heart that yearns for passion survives the darkness.

Category : True Crime
Languages : en
Pages : 386
Book Description
Even the most avid true crime fans will be shocked by the story of Marcus Wesson of Fresno, California, the worst mass-murderer in the city’s history. But the horrors he inflicted upon his family are nothing compared to the strength of the survivors, and one brave reporter who risked everything to help them. Originally published as Where Hope Begins. For decades, the family of Marcus Wesson—his wife, Elizabeth, and seventeen children—lived sequestered in a social and emotional prison, enduring his tyrannical reign of physical, sexual, and mental abuse. Then came the terrible day when a family confrontation erupted into a harrowing standoff: with police and SWAT teams descending on a small blue house in central Fresno, Marcus Wesson murdered nine of his children. Television reporter Alysia Sofios got the first tip about Wesson’s arrest and was witness to every twist and turn of the horrific case through to Wesson’s trial. Risking her job and her life to offer friendship and support to the traumatized family members—scarred by memories and guilt, reviled for having the Wesson name—Sofios chronicles the case that shocked the nation, and gives voice to their astounding stories of survival. This is a stunning account of healing from one man’s unimaginable acts, and how each, in time, learned to break free from a deadly devotion.

Book Description
All of England thinks Phillip Camden a monster--a man who deliberately caused the deaths of his squadron. But as nurse Arabelle Denler watches the so-dubbed "Black Heart" every day, she sees something far different: a hurting man desperate for mercy. And when their paths twist together and he declares himself her new protector, she realizes she has her own role to play in his healing. Phillip Camden would have preferred to die that day with his squadron rather than be recruited to the Admiralty's codebreaking division. The threats he receives daily are no great surprise and, in his opinion, well deserved. What comes as a shock is the reborn desire to truly live that Arabelle inspires in him. But when an old acquaintance shows up and seems set on using him in a plot that has the codebreakers of Room 40 in a frenzy, new affections are put to the test.

Capturing the attention of a dangerously sexy fae leader was never part of my plan. I wanted to finish college, get a job, and maybe find a nice guy to date.
