Alabama-born Anarchy might be able to hide her southern accent, but she can't hide her feelings for Avalon's resident sadist. Everyone, it seems, knows how much she loves Jasper, including the man himself, but that doesn't stop the pain of the axe falling on her dreams with a sharpened blade.

Everyone, it seems, knows how much she loves Jasper, including the man himself, but that doesn't stop the pain of the axe falling on her dreams with a sharpened blade.

Bred to be a killer, raised and trained by a monster, he's done a lot of bad things in his life. Things he doesn't like remembering, but can't let go.

But what hope does a man deserve when extinguishing that light is his nature? Letting her go is hard; letting her in is worse. Especially when his past is no longer content to stay in the past. less

One week. Loki Jackson spent one delightful week with a lonely and misunderstood woman from Washington D. C. Months later, he still couldn't get his Christmas fling with Myna out of his head, and it affected every aspect of his life. He couldn't tattoo without seeing her face in the ink, couldn't pierce without wondering what she would look like with her own shiny baubles.

Loki Jackson spent one delightful week with a lonely and misunderstood woman from Washington D. C. Months later, he still couldn't get his Christmas fling with Myna out of his head, and it affected every aspect of his life. He couldn't tattoo without seeing her face in the ink, couldn't pierce without wondering what she would look like with her own shiny baubles. Couldn't dominate anyone in Avalon because, well, they just weren't her. Myna, his little songbird. He was one lovesick puppy, and tired of it. Myna Cookson couldn't find satisfaction in anything. D. C. didn't hold the same allure it once did, and her exile from the community she found peace in was complete. Persona non grata. Her work as a physical therapist paid the bills, but she wanted more than that. She wanted Loki—a man she craved, a Dominant she missed. Her perspective on her role in the BDSM community had been skewed. Knowing she wasn't a Domme, was barely a Switch, made her behavior in D. C. all the more embarrassing. A visit to Phoenix might cheer her up, but would it really fix anything? Life might seem normal on the surface, but something nefarious stalks Club Avalon. When the enemy makes a move, who will be the last ones standing? less

One day she was there; the next she was gone. Zeke mourned the loss of his blue-haired angel, missed the sound of her voice and the touch of her hand on his. She'd been there while his broken body tried to heal, had soothed him when the pain was consuming, bewitched him with her laugh and ever-present smile. Nothing could happen between them, he'd known that from the start. Too many years between them - he was an old man compared to the beauty of her youth... moreOne day she was there; the next she was gone.

Nothing could happen between them, he'd known that from the start. Too many years between them - he was an old man compared to the beauty of her youth. Yet she'd been his lifeline, his everything, while the world around him burned. Two years after she'd left Phoenix, Olivia was finally home. If home was the right word for a house falling down around her ears, eaten away by mold and disrepair. At least her decrepit car had managed to get her back where she belonged. Intent on rebuilding what she'd left behind, things beyond her control set into motion, guiding her on a path she never expected. When the man she loved more than anything knocked on her door, it was the hand of fate that answered. less
