MatthewIvy. So sweet and young, so innocent and mine, even though I was crossing a line by simply desiring her. Forbidden. I should stay away, but in my mind I'd already claimed her, already made the decision I couldn't let her go. If wanting her was wrong ... I didn't want to be right. IvyI was still in high school, hadn't even experienced the world, but I already knew who I wanted to spend my life with. Matthew. He was someone I could never be with, yet here I was, feeling him, touching him ... being with him. It was all so perfect until it wasn't, until my father found out ... until my world was turned upside down. And through it all Matthew was there, telling me he wouldn't give me up, wouldn't let me go. But could he keep that promise during the fallout?

The things I knew about her, the way I watched. It was all to protect her, all to know her. She liked her tea with milk and sugar, extra sweet just like I knew her lips would be if I were to kiss her. I was desperate for her. She chewed on her pencil when she was concentrating, her little tongue coming out and moving along her bottom lip. I was hungry for her. She played with the ends of her hair when she was nervous, her fingers delicate, long, like she played piano, her nails painted pink. The things I thought about her doing with those tiny hands. And she bit her bottom lip when she was worried, those straight white teeth sinking into the red flesh, like an apple being broken into, the crack of it consuming. I didn't deny I wanted her. I didn't even try and hide it. Innocent. That's what she was. I stalked her, knew her every like and dislike ... obsessed over her. I wanted her like I'd never wanted anything in my life. And I told myself that watching her, following her, was to keep her safe. To keep her mine. I was her professor. She was my student. It was wrong to need her the way I did. But she consumed me, like I was gasping to breathe and she was oxygen. I was a selfish bastard, and when it came to Grace, I wanted her all to myself.

*All stories in the Real Man series can be read in any order*GretaBerserkers. They were known to be the fiercest of all Norse warriors, charging into battle in a wild frenzy, no protection except the weapon they held in their hand. Said to have the spirit of a wild animal inside of them, they were feared ... revered. And I had fallen in love with one. CalderI was a wanderer, a free spirit. I was paid to track and hunt, to kill. It's what I did, how I survived. And I loved every minute of it. But I found myself going to the same village because of one person ... Greta. I shouldn't want her. She's far too innocent for the likes of me, more animal, more feral than the fiercest of Vikings. But I can't stop myself from being drawn to her. And then she's taken from me. I'll track her, hunt her down and bring her back. But that's not all I'll do. Once Greta is back in my arms, I'm claiming her and never letting her go. Warning: This story is totally wild and unrealistic. It holds no actual historical facts and is purely for reading enjoyment in all its craziness. It's filthy and sexy, features a totally over-the-top hero who only has eyes for one woman, and he'll do whatever it takes to make her his. If you didn't like Vikings before now, that's about to change. *wink*

EXTENDED EPILOGUES: Includes all new extended epilogues for both books This complete series box set includes The Wolf's Capture & The Bear's Capture plus all new, never before published extended epilogues for both stories. THE WOLF'S CAPTURE: It should have just been a simple vacation, away from everyone and everything to clear my head. But I soon realized I wasn't alone. He stalked me, hunted me. I should've run faster, tried harder. But the truth was I liked him chasing me. Wolf was a ruthless man, his way of living barbaric. Now he had me in his off-the-grid cabin, what he deemed my new home. I was his new wife, would have his babies. I was his irrevocably. I shouldn't have felt arousal. But I did. He's not going to let me escape ... but then again, maybe I don't want to. THE BEAR'S CAPTURE: The solitude had always been my companion and I accepted it, embraced it. Living on my own with the forest as my backyard had always been good enough for me. Until it no longer was. The quiet could be loud, the loneliness a burden. I was tired of being on my own. I wanted a wife, needed a woman to call my own. Who I wanted was Susie. She was sweet and kind, innocent and soft in all the right places. She made this caveman part of me rise up and take control. The things I wanted to do to her would probably frighten her, scare her away for good. I didn't pretend to be a gentle man. I was brutal and savage in my way of living, but when I looked at her I felt something soften within me. It was time to man up and tell her what I wanted, that she was all I thought about, all I needed in my life. NOTE: Dive into two safe reads featuring over the top alpha heroes who will do whatever it takes to be with the women they love. Both stories are filled with happily ever afters and epilogue goodness. THESE ARE NOT PARANORMA

I would kill for her. HarperThe night Arsen killed my father was the first time I realized the lengths he'd go to keep me safe. He might have done it to protect me, but he was still convicted and locked away for seven years. And for that entire time I waited for him, knowing that once he was released, things needed to be said, the truth needed to be spoken. And that day was today. I loved him, but the look he gave me, the possessiveness and pent-up arousal reflected in his eyes ... had me realizing one thing. Now more than ever, he wouldn't let me go. ArsenI went to prison for Harper, and I'd do it all over again to make sure she was safe. She was all I thought about the entire time I was behind bars, and it was her weekly visits that got me through the years, even if I tried pushing her away. But after seven years of being locked up, I was finally released ... and I was going to make her mine. Warning: This is a short, dirty story about a hero who will go to any lengths to make sure the woman he loves is safe. With darker undertones and graphic scenes, there may be material some readers find offensive. Reader note: All of the books in the "Cards of Love" series are standalone. They are not connected in any way. The only thing they all have in common is a tarot card theme. That means you can read and enjoy any of them in any order : )
