The Heritage Series by Emm Darcy, May Sage

Morgan. I was never one to believe in fairy tales, or good vs. evil. In real life, evil wins any day. Yet somehow, I convinced myself I could make a difference. I had the means to push the privileged assholes ruling my town into a corner. They’d have to give me answers, right? Wrong. So wrong. I broke the rules. Reckoning is coming and it bears the face of a fallen angel. Camden Hunt took everything I ever loved and crushed it in his fist... moreMorgan. I was never one to believe in fairy tales, or good vs. evil. In real life, evil wins any day. Yet somehow, I convinced myself I could make a difference. I had the means to push the privileged assholes ruling my town into a corner. They’d have to give me answers, right? Wrong. So wrong. I broke the rules. Reckoning is coming and it bears the face of a fallen angel. Camden Hunt took everything I ever loved and crushed it in his fist. He humiliated me, broke me, and set the pieces on fire for good measure. Then when there was nothing left? He came back for more. Cam. There’s a usual solution to take care of problems like Morgan Brown. A fixer could have buried her in a shallow grave or made her appear so insane she would have spent the rest of her life locked in a white room. I’m the alternative. She should thank me, really. Instead of destroying Morgan, I merely shattered a few pieces. Pursuing her afterwards isn’t part of the plan, but I can’t let go. She was oh so beautiful when I watched her break. I can’t resist putting her back together, only to destroy her all over again. She’s mine to play with. Mine to claim. Suck it up, darling. Suck it Up is not even remotely suitable for you if you have any triggers at all. You have issues with gray characters and dark situations? Don’t read it. You have issues with coercion and deception? Don’t read it. You have issues with group action and sharing in a MF story? Don’t read it. Camden is a villain and Morgan happens to be twisted enough to deal with him. This is not a fairy tale. If you’re okay with that? Welcome to the Heritage. less

Violet. I didn’t have a choice; Rothford U was the only place to give me the scholarship I needed to attend college. But being in Thorn Falls means dealing with them. The man I thought I wanted, and the one I used as a stepping stone to get my way. Charles is obsessed with me; Rhys wants me gone. I won’t let either of them walk over me. I am Violet Rothford, and this place is my legacy. Never mind that Rhys long ago declared himself its king. Rhys... moreViolet.

I am Violet Rothford, and this place is my legacy. Never mind that Rhys long ago declared himself its king. Rhys. Violet isn’t the first to have wronged me, but she’s the only one who got away with it. I let her walk when she was sixteen. She should have enjoyed her win and stayed out of my way. Instead, she came back for more. Now what am I supposed to do with the prissy princess in my domain? F#ck It Up is completely unsuitable for sensitive readers. less

SarahIt was just a case of wrong place, terrible time. My world tilted off its axis when I walked into a hedonistic maelstrom. I shouldn’t have watched, but I couldn’t look away. Then someone shared the Heritage legacies’ secrets with the world, posting videos of their deviant party. They’re threatening to divulge their identities.

I shouldn’t have watched, but I couldn’t look away. Then someone shared the Heritage legacies’ secrets with the world, posting videos of their deviant party. They’re threatening to divulge their identities. And Marius thinks that someone is me. He is supposed to be the kind one, the sane one, but when he has me in his clutches, he proves to be as much as a psycho as any of his filthy rich, depraved peers. I have to escape him. He’s a monster. Too bad my body didn’t get the memo. MariusI don’t believe in coincidences, I don’t believe in fake threats, and I sure as fuck don’t believe her, with her dark eyes full of secrets. She’s the only new player on my board, and she looks guilty as sin. She’ll confess her involvement in our leak, even if I must torture her all day and night until she cracks. She wants me to think she’s being framed. Until she can prove it, she’s mine to torment, mine to break. And if she’s telling the truth? She’s mine, full stop. No matter how I royally screw it up. less
