It's the morning of my wedding. I don't look like the ruthless mafia boss who rules the underworld. No matter how fake this marriage might seem, by the end of the day, she'll be my wife. Until…she's gone. They call me the Reaper. Feared. Ruthless. Untouchable. I don't save people. I bury them. Until she stumbled into my world.

I've been hiding from the grumpy mafia heir for six years to protect our son. When my father discovered my pregnancy, I was sent away to Italy. I didn't mind it, I wanted a chance to raise our baby away from the violent world. But now I've been called back to Chicago to marry him and unite our feuding families. He's my brother's best friend, and he's way too old for me.

It was supposed to be a joke: Give my best friend raunchy toys for her bridal shower and embarrass her in front of her family. But when my package is wrongly delivered to my gorgeous, mysterious neighbor, I'm the one who ends up mortified. I sneak over to his place to try stealing it back before he finds it. The problem is I get caught mid-heist... And then he makes me stay for dinner. Dinner leads to dessert, and dessert leads to... other dessert, if you get my drift. Several courses of sweet, sinful temptation.

One wardrobe malfunction. Two people who don’t belong together. Three awful words: “Be my wife."

Working as Ruslan Oryolov’s personal assistant is the job from hell. After a long day spent tending to the billionaire’s every whim, I need some stress relief. So when I get home that night, that’s exactly what I do. Problem is, my thoughts are still stuck on the bosshole, who’s ruining my life. That’s fine—because of all Ruslan’s many sins, being gorgeous might be the most dangerous.

Cian is terrifying me. The Irish killer stole me on my wedding day. And now, he's revealing secrets that threaten to burn everything—and everyone—I love to ashes. I need to get back to Dmitri. He's the only one who can keep our unborn child safe. Escaping Cian is just the beginning because Dmitri has secrets of his own. Starting with the unseen houseguest upstairs... And ending with the hideous truth about what really happened to my sister.

The first book in Nicole Fox’s bestselling Akopov Bratva series, where a steamy office romance unfolds between Rowan St. Clair and her dangerously seductive boss, billionaire bad boy CEO Vincent Akopov, in this forbidden love story that blurs the lines between a passionate fantasy and reality...

"What do you mean, 'You gave me the wrong sperm sample'?!" But the doctor says he isn't joking. Instead of being my sister's surrogate... I'm accidentally carrying my boss's baby. A few months ago, I agreed to be my sister's surrogate. Then she died in an unsolved accident. I swore I'd keep her child and raise it on my own. But as it turns out, there was a mix-up at the clinic. Instead of carrying my future nephew... I learned I'm pregnant with my boss's child. But Dmitri isn't just my boss. He's also the one who killed my sister in the first place.

My ex came back from the dead and stole me away from my happily ever after. Somehow, that's not even the worst of my problems. I've also been separated from my son. My father is trying to kill me. And my husband thinks I'm pregnant—but the truth is that I lost the baby... and I don't know how to tell him. Basically, my whole world's on fire. So I have a choice to make: I can take my son and run from this life, or I can beg Mikhail to leave it behind with us.

It's the dog's fault, really. If this untrained Great Dane I'm walking had any manners at all, I never would've ended up here: With my leash wrapped around the most gorgeous man I've ever seen. Lucky for me, the guy is a good sport about it. (Although his joke that “Dogs take after their owners” hits a little too close to home when Rufus starts humping his leg.) He leaves me with his business card and a smile that makes my knees weak.

I don't make mistakes. I don't do mercy. But the moment I married the wrong sister, I made both. She was only supposed to cover a shift. Now she's wearing my ring… and carrying my twins. Aria De Luca was never meant to be mine. Her sister shook hands with hell—me—then vanished. Aria stayed. The dress fit. The lie did too. She said I do. And I let her. I gave her my name like a curse. But now I want more than her signature. I want her obedience. Her loyalty. Her moans in my ear… But nothing about Aria is convenient.

One butt dial changed my life forever. Ruslan Oryolov went from boss to baby daddy in the blink of an eye. But other stuff changed along the way, too. I learned who Ruslan is—who he really is. I learned that the children I’ve come to love as my own can’t stay in this city anymore. I’ve learned that none of us can.

I woke up married to my archenemy, my dad's billionaire boss. The beast stole my v-card and now… I'm expecting his baby. The grump fired my father, then made me an offer I couldn't refuse. Be his fake fiancée and in return… One million dollars. All so he could mend his bad boy image. Which apparently an innocent wallflower like me can deliver. I took the deal to give my dad a break after Mama died. But in a hazy Vegas moment... he put a ring on my finger. Now I'm his.

Elio Rossi is a dream on paper. He's rich, handsome, and head of his family's multi-billion-dollar business. He's also a ruthless Mafia Don and my older brother's best friend. But even that isn't a huge issue to me. No, Elio is my nightmare because he used to be my dream man. We've been betrothed since childhood. But the night of our engagement years ago, our parents died in a tragic accident. One that I'm sure Elio's family planned.

Once, I was a broke college student. Now, it seems I'm destined to rule as the Lightbringer—queen of the demon realm. Except I have competition in the form of Orion, the Lord of Chaos. Like me, he has been marked as a leader. We can't keep our hands off each other, even if he swore an oath to kill me. It seems we both want the same thing—the crown. And in this battle of wills, only one of us will be left standing.

He took me as collateral to ensure my ex-fiancé kept the deal they made. But since then, Lev Zarkov has become so much more than the devil I thought he was. And now his baby is growing in my belly. I don't want to leave him, but after one devastating night blows up our life, I know I have my baby to think about. I tell myself that leaving is the right thing to do. But waking up without Lev in the middle of the night is pure midnight poison.

The moment I tasted her, I knew one thing—she was mine. I stole her from her wedding and put a ring on her hand. But there's an ache I can't ignore—I might never have her heart. Vivienne Cole is my enemy's daughter. My perfect revenge. And now… my wife. I planned to use her as my weapon to rip her father's world apart. But marrying Vivienne wasn't supposed to feel this good. Her fire tempts me. Her defiance dares me. Her laugh makes me forget I'm a monster. I should break her. Instead, I crave her. She calls me a beast. She's right. She hates me. She should.

Her brother sold her off, and now she belongs to me—she just doesn't know it yet. Ginevra Bianchi is nothing like the spoiled billionaire princess and politician's fiancée I thought she'd be. She doesn't bow, doesn't break, and that smart mouth of hers is going to get her into serious trouble—my kind of trouble. Her family owes me, and I always collect.

‘Trauma doesn't have to be the end of your story—it can be the beginning of a new, stronger chapter. What to Do When You Feel Broken dives deep into the transformative process known as post-traumatic growth, revealing how even life's most challenging moments can fuel your resilience...

Gia Rossi—off-limits, untamable, my enemy's precious little sister. When our rival families form an uneasy alliance, I become her bodyguard. Nothing new—I've been protecting her for years. In secret. The job is simple: protect her, watch her, never touch her. But one taste of Gia, and I stopped caring about the rules. I make her mine in every filthy, forbidden way that matters. I worship her body like a sinner worships salvation. I command her surrender.
