Helen Hardt

When Rock Wolfe was fourteen, he tried to kill his father. Twenty years later, someone else finished the job. Now Rock is returning to New York for the reading of the billionaire's will. No way did Derek Wolfe leave anything to his oldest son, but according to Rock's brother, his presence is required. Estate attorney Lacey Ward isn't looking forward to the reading. None of Derek Wolfe's children will be happy, least of all his oldest. When Rock enters the conference room, Lacey is stunned. He's a rebel-a biker all muscled and gorgeous in black leather. This won't be easy, especially since she can't stop staring at him. Rock pays no attention to the reading. He's lost in a fantasy of bending his father's hot attorney over a desk. He's not a commitment kind of guy, though, and she screams white picket fence. Sparks fly between them, but the murder lurks in the back of their minds. Rock knows all his family's secrets...or so he thinks. Mysteries seem to hide everywhere-mysteries that threaten not only his and Lacey's future but their lives as well.

One Wolfe wife is forced into a marriage of convenience to the man she loves desperately. Another is about to take the fall for a murder she didn't commit. Time is running out for the Wolfes. Lacey is under arrest for the murder of patriarch Derek Wolfe, and the four Wolfe siblings-Rock, Roy, Reid, and Riley-are still considered suspects. Rock is determined to save his wife, even if it means committing murder himself, while Reid resolves to to discover the truth and avenge his love, Zee, for what she's suffered at his father's hand. A court order not to leave the state of New York doesn't stop Rock and Reid. Using aliases, they venture out to find the key to this mystery once and for all. Several others are implicated, and an abduction, a death, and a long-lost relative complicate matters and bring new evidence to light. Rock and Reid will do anything to save the women they love-even if it means neither of them comes out alive.

Bryce Simpson did the only thing he could. He spurned Marjorie Steel. Even though he'll be living on her ranch, he is determined to stay away from her.

When Bryce and Marjorie are thrown together, though, their ravenous hunger for each other takes over, leaving both of them more vulnerable than they realize.

He'll let his captor think she commands him as long as it serves his purpose, but if Erin or anyone else is threatened, all bets are off. He'll use all his powers against her, whether or not he can master them. Time is running out, however. Dante must act quickly to free those imprisoned, especially when he learns what his captor has in mind. His new abilities keep those around him protected until she who calls herself Queen plays her trump card. Dante must face one last foe...and only one can emerge undefeated.

Vampires can't levitate. At least that's what Dante Gabriel always thought, until he finds himself floating above his bed along with his lover, Erin Hamilton.

When a new and unexpected temptation arises, he finds himself unable to resist. Erin aches for Dante and wants more than anything for him to find peace.

First, though, he will make Erin truly his and take the sustenance he needs to get him through his next battle. But will his love for her be enough to save him when his nemesis is finally unmasked?

Breaking into a cemetery isn't anything Dante Gabriel ever thought he'd do, but he has no choice. He must recover his father's body so he can claim his estate.

But as Dante develops some unusual abilities and the darkness targeting him becomes more menacing, he must proceed, undaunted.

Vampires are real. That fact has Erin Hamilton thinking she's headed for crazy town. Still, she can't deny the intense emotion she experiences when Dante Gabriel sinks his teeth into her neck to take her blood. She's in love, and her body responds to his bite in a way she never could have imagined. Once Dante tastes Erin's blood, he's addicted forever and cannot live without it.

To complicate matters, a gang of vampire thugs chasing Erin, flashbacks increasing in number and clarity, and an ominous dark energy leave Dante on the brink of becoming unhinged.
