About this series
When Sloane Drake learns her best friend Leigh has gone missing in Boston, she expects the worst. She and the rest of the ex-assassins go after Leigh to discover her whereabouts. No one’s seen her, not even Axel Whitman, the arrogant rich boy who used to be Leigh’s best friend.
Sloane has always stuck to the shadows. She’s not flashy, she doesn’t take charge, and no one notices her. But when everyone else disappears as well, she’s left on her own. She’s got to find where the others have been taken, and she’s got to rescue them.
Axel wants to help. He’s a careless playboy who owns a burlesque gentleman’s club and usually spends his nights snorting cocaine or screwing anything in a skirt. Helping Sloane is dangerous and exciting, and he can’t get enough of it. Furthermore, he can’t get enough of Sloane herself.
Sloane knows that Axel is getting in the way of her mission. He distracts her with trivialities when she should be focusing on freeing her friends. But being with Axel makes her feel like she’s been pulled from the shadows into the light. She’s never been so... noticed.
**Recommended for mature readers due to explicit sexual situations, coarse language, and violence.**

- Slow Burn
1
Griffin Fawkes: They made him a killer. They made him ruthless, callous, efficient. And now, he knows he’s too damaged to ever be with a woman. Especially not one as beautiful as Leigh Thorn. He might want to press her into the wall, claim her lips and touch her skin, but he won’t. Instead, he will use his skills to protect her. Nothing more. Leigh Thorn: If the wrong people find her, she’s dead. But all she wants to do is snort lines and shoot marshmallow-flavored vodka until everything’s bliss. Griffin says he’s there to protect her. Near as she can tell, he’s only raining on her parade. Sure, he’s gorgeous. Solid and taut and rippling and... That doesn't give him the right to order her around.
- Slow Agony
2
Griffin left after New Year's Eve. There was a misunderstanding. He thought he saw something Leigh swears he didn't see. He came back a month later. But by then, she'd already done something that Griffin thought was horrible. He couldn't be with her anymore. So, he left for good. Now, three and a half months later, a madman named Marcel is threatening Leigh, demanding that she get a message to Griffin. She doesn't have a choice. She has to go to Griffin for help. More than anything, she wants him back, but he's made it clear that he'll never forgive her. Stuck together in the same apartment, they will have to confront their problems. Because what Marcel has planned for them is so harrowing, they'll need to be able to depend on each other.
- Silas
3
Silas Drake doesn’t do commitments. Or second dates. Or guilt. Yeah, he used to be an assassin. He used to kill people. And yeah, he breaks girls’ hearts on a routine basis. He’s an asshole. So what? When Rolf, a dangerous man from his past, arrives in Morgantown, Silas is itching to go after him. The only problem is that he’s the best man in his friends’ Griffin’s and Leigh’s wedding, which is a time-consuming distraction. Things get more complicated when Silas finds out that the random girl he took home the night before is actually Griffin’s little sister, Christa. For some reason, Griffin isn’t keen on Silas’ getting involved with her. When Rolf captures both Silas and Christa, he uses them in deadly game of cat and mouse, hunting them down for his own entertainment. They’re in the woods, on the run. Rolf has a gun, and he’s chasing them. Silas has to do everything in his power to protect Christa. But trying to keep her safe might be easier for him than facing the fact that he’s developing feelings for her. **Recommended for mature readers due to explicit sexual situations, coarse language, and disturbing violence.**
