Vincent and Eve

As the bus approaches my stop on the Lower East Side, I raise the hood of my black sweatshirt. Anonymity is key in my neighborhood-particularly as a lone female walking at night. All I want is to leave my crime-ridden shadow of a home in New York City. I've done everything I can to keep my head down and focus on my studies. College is my only goal; love has never been on the map . . . That is, until my sister brings me to an underground fight, where I meet a gorgeous and mysterious man: Vincent. He is the ghost in my shadows, showing up to feed me pieces of his upper-crust life, then evaporating into darkness until his next visit. I'm falling hard and fast. How can I trust him amidst the depth of his secrets? Vincent may be even more dangerous than the dark world I'm trying to escape. Contains mature themes.

Vincent: Forgetting about Eve was the plan. Finding her at a party on my college campus was the last thing I expected. But letting her go again isn't an option-not this time. Juggling the life I want with the one I was born into may be near impossible, but for her, it's a risk I'm willing to take. My world has turned into a house of cards, where one wrong move can send it all crashing down . . . and us with it. Eve: Finally at a prestigious university-and on the path to living my dreams-I've left the darkness of the Blue Houses behind. Still, a whole new host of problems await me. Vincent is here. He's king of the school, complete with a society princess by his side. I thought I wanted to know what he was hiding, but unlocking his biggest secret leads me into entirely new territory laced with danger and lust . . . one I'm not sure I'll survive. Contains mature themes.

Vincent Through every drop of blood I spilled, I lost a piece of my soul. I've sacrificed seven long years and the woman of my life for the Family. With prison behind me, I'm finally taking the reins of my destiny. I won't allow the choices of my past to define my future. But I'm not done fighting-not yet. Eve is still out there. I will stop at nothing to get her back. Eve After having my heart torn out by the son of the biggest crime family in New York, I was forced to start over in California. With three thousand miles between me and my past, life is finally set on cruise control. I'm a lawyer at one of the best law firms in the country, I own my apartment, and I even have a doting boyfriend by my side. As for love? It's not worth the fight. Contains mature themes.
