Tracy Lorraine

Tristan was the guy everyone wanted...but he was also my older brother's best friend. Smart, kind, and hot as hell, with a one-way ticket straight to the NFL....

For years, all I dreamed about is getting away. Starting over… a new life. Far, far away from where I grew up. But I always expected to be the one to save myself. I was naïve enough to think the decision about where I went, and more importantly, who with would be up to me.

It was supposed to be the perfect Christmas… until it went from cozy to crowded.

An all-new and addictive dark, why-choose, captive romance from the USA Today & Wall Street Journal bestselling author, Tracy Lorraine. You know what they say about things that are too good to be true…

A love like ours was never meant to exist. It pushed every boundary. Broke every rule. My heart couldn't deny what I felt for him, and my body couldn't ignore his touch. He was my step-brother, and what we had might be real...but it was also forbidden....

The night we met, she was just another one-night stand. We were never meant to see each other again, and my best friend certainly wasn’t supposed to go and fall in love with her best friend....

I might have accomplished the impossible and walked back up those stairs. But I wasn’t naïve. Freedom didn’t await. Only more locked doors and nightmares. My captivity means nothing now. My hope is locked up in despair. Because just like he promised, Mav came for me.

The night we met, she left behind a lot more than just her shoes on my bedroom floor. She left an impression. A lasting memory burned into my brain. It teases me… tortures me. Months have passed since that night. I’ve tried a million and one ways to get her out of my head. But she’s always there.

I found everything I didn’t know I needed. Accepted forgiveness I didn’t deserve. She fought for us. Killed for us. She was one of us. And there was no way I was letting her go…again....

She was my best friend. The person I told my deepest secrets to. But when my world came crashing down, it was all because of her family. From that moment, I realized I’d been wrong to trust her....

Kane Legend always finds me. And now he’s found out the truth. The dark secret I’ve been hiding, the one that’s been slowly poisoning me from the inside out. The pain of the words falling from my lips, is nothing compared to the look of devastation in his eyes. Or the rage....

I hated her defiance.... But it made me want her even more. Her brother was my friend...and my boss. She was off-limits. Kassie Fox. From the first moment she looked in my direction, I knew she would be mine. It's impossible to stay away....

The moment I discovered the dark truth, it descended on my life and threatened to swallow me whole. It tore at my soul, piece by piece. But I refused to go down alone. My need for vengeance pours out like a gaping wound…directed at the man I thought was my father....

I wanted to drown. I wanted the world to swallow me up whole and take me back to a time when everything was okay. A time when I hadn’t just buried the only father I've ever known. One where I’m not watching as my mother loses herself to her grief.

Five years is a long time. Friendships can be made and lost. Relationships broken. Loved ones leave us, while new life enters the world. We’ve seen it all, but one thing remains. Or should I say, six things…

Everything I thought I knew was a lie. Including the one I kept telling myself… that he was coming for me. The illusion that I was safe, shattered with every step as I ran. Much like Alex, this world is nothing more than wolves dressed in sheep’s clothing.

She’s in the wrong place at the right time...Gunshots echo, reverberating through me, allowing me to feel something...anything other than the pain that consumes me. That should be a warning to stay away, but for some reason, she comes closer. Intruding on my silence....

I was playing with fire. I knew that. I’m the one who lit the match. But the possibility of getting burned still wasn’t enough to stop me....

She doesn't belong here. From the moment she steps foot in Rosewood High - it's clear she must go. And I'll use my power to get rid of her. The betrayal I'm reminded of each time our eyes lock must end....
