The Heights Series by R.E. Bond

Living in Hawthorne Heights wasn’t for the weak. Crime and violence surrounded us, but we did what we had to in order to survive. Not everyone made it out alive though when dodgy deals went wrong. My brother had proved that when he’d been killed right in front of me when I was twelve. I’d managed to dodge the foster system, thanks to my brother’s best friend. Reid had only been a kid too when my brother had died, but he seemed so much older... moreLiving in Hawthorne Heights wasn’t for the weak. Crime and violence surrounded us, but we did what we had to in order to survive. Not everyone made it out alive though when dodgy deals went wrong. My brother had proved that when he’d been killed right in front of me when I was twelve. I’d managed to dodge the foster system, thanks to my brother’s best friend. Reid had only been a kid too when my brother had died, but he seemed so much older. He’d taken charge, making sure my best friend Logan and I never went without. We were a family. Over the years, it became harder to ignore the revolving door of women. Growing up as one of the boys meant I saw way more than I liked. It didn’t bother me when they chased guys away from me, I wasn’t interested anyway. Even when Zavier moved in and I got my first crush, I never acted on it. Now at twenty-one, I just wanted my virginity gone. There was no way the guys would let anyone touch me though. Until one of them agreed to sleep with me, altering our friendship forever. That one dirty secret would be the first of many, and it would tear us all apart. *This is Raven, Logan, Reid, Ander, and Zavier’s story. Dirty Secrets is book 1 in a reverse harem/why choose trilogy. It contains dark content, adult themes, violence, and miscarriage. less

I’d never been on my own before, and it sucked. My world was crumbling down around me right in front of my eyes. Reid hurt me. Logan broke me. Zavier almost got me killed. Nothing was ever going to be the same again. With no one to protect me, I had to rely on myself. Beckett was my only trusted friend, and she reminded me that I was strong. Until that one night I let loose and almost lost what was left of me... moreI’d never been on my own before, and it sucked. My world was crumbling down around me right in front of my eyes.

Beckett was my only trusted friend, and she reminded me that I was strong. Until that one night I let loose and almost lost what was left of me. And the last person I thought I’d see again walked through the door like he’d never left. Ander Lavaro was the only person alive that I could claim to hate. His illegal street races had almost cost Reid his life a year ago. Now he was back, bringing his problems with him like always. I wanted him gone, but I found myself slowly letting him in. Truths become lies, secrets are exposed, and promises are broken. Repairing the damage between the guys and I felt impossible. Now the mafia are at our door, and all I can see is the truth. I never should have trusted Ander and his lies. *This is the second instalment of Raven, Logan, Reid, Ander, and Zavier's story. Broken Promises is book 2 in a reverse harem/why choose trilogy.

Falling for a liar was a different kind of pain. How could you love someone who wasn’t who they said they were? It was impossible to let them go, even though they deserved it. Did any of us even know the real Ander Lavaro? With the mafia closing in on us, time was running out. I couldn’t lose anyone else, but they had their sights set on Zavier. There was no way we’d get out of this unscathed. If Ander had been honest from the start, none of this would have happened... moreFalling for a liar was a different kind of pain.

If Ander had been honest from the start, none of this would have happened. This was bigger than us, so it was no surprise when the street crews got involved. With them by our side, we could handle anything. Until an attack ended with blood on my hands and one of my guys being taken. No one messed with my family. No one. If Stefano Ricci thought we’d lie down and take it, he was dead wrong. Sometimes you just had to fight fire with fire. How many people had to die before this was over? It was a war we never saw coming, one that I wasn’t sure we could win. *This is Raven, Logan, Reid, Ander, and Zavier's story.
