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.

Story
Dante Marino’s the definition of beautiful destruction. Everything he touched, he destroyed...including me. We were friends. Then we weren't. He used me. Played me. Took every ounce of my affection and threw it away. He became my enemy, then risked everything to save me. Now, he wants me back, claiming he's changed - determined to make me his. Each vow, every possessive kiss, feels like he’s mine. But I can't forget that underneath his rock-hard body, seductive grin, and wicked promises, one thing will always remain true - he's my undoing.

Story
Once upon a time I was a hero, until the sins of my father caught up with me, and I was forced into darkness. I should've died in that fire. Instead, I served evil men, until I risked it all by walking away. Now I'm a wanted man. At any time, I could be taken down for what I owe. What I don't expect to find in my hiding place is her—broken, beautiful, so damn tempting. I was hired to keep her safe. I shouldn't touch her with my filthy hands. But every day it gets harder, then she starts sneaking into my bed. Together, we're filthy, but we can find our way through the flames.

Forevers don’t exist when you’re on the run. Amelia cannot get attached - not to the town or the people in it. And definitely not to the tall, dark, and handsome mafia prince who sweet-talks his way past her carefully built walls. Why put yourself through that, knowing it’ll all be ripped away when you leave? And she will have to leave. This life isn’t hers to keep. Sam calls her Snow, like the fairy-tale princess. But her life is far from a fairy tale. Even a prince can’t change that.

I didn't mean to star in a sex tape, okay? It was just one of those unexplainable things. Like Stonehenge, Police Academy 2, and morning glory clouds. It just happened. Now, my ball-busting father is sentencing me to six months of celibacy, sobriety, and morbid boredom under the roof of Boston's nerdiest girl alive, Sailor Brennan. The virginal archer is supposed to babysit my ass while I learn to take my place in Royal Pipelines, my family's oil company. Little does she know, that's not the only pipe I'll be laying....

Massimo D’Agostino is the heir to his father’s empire. Don’t be fooled by his handsome face or that piercing blue gaze. He’s no prince charming. He’s dangerous and feared, possessive and fierce. Our first meeting began with a contract that forced me to marry him and sign my life away. I was a debt repayment and a pawn in his game to exact revenge against my father. The only way out is death. I belong to him now. Me, the Balesteri Mafia princess. Pure and untouched. Owned by the devil who placed me in a gilded cage.

I chose to marry him and live. But there’s one small problem with his grand plan to rain Armageddon on the Mexican Cartel. I’m not the woman he thinks I am. I’m not the cartel princess he thinks he took to make his enemies bow to him. When my captor finds out my secret and realizes he married the wrong woman, love won’t be enough to save me. And neither will his obsession.

I made his high school life hell. He won’t stop until he gives me a taste of my own medicine.

Publisher's Summary
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.

Captivating!
**update - audiobook just released and I still LOVE this one just as much as I did back in 2018!!! 🖤
WOW!! Where do I begin?? The blurb caught me and the book didn't let me go. Starting a new book by an author you know and love is easy. Starting a new book by a new author, an Indie author at that, is a bit hard. With so many books out here that I want to read, picking up a new book especially by an Indie author was probably the best and worst thing I could have done two days ago. The best because I truly don't believe this is Jessica Ruben's debut novel. It's truly mesmerizing from the first page to the last page. Kudos!! Eve and Vincent's story is captivating. The author has this magic about her writing that just pulls you in and you start craving her written word more and more the more pages you read. And that ending! Balls to the Wall. What did this author do to me. I literally dropped my kindle & was like what??!!?! This is how you do me. I invested my time and you ended it like this. I warned you. I mentioned it was the worst thing I could have done, remember?!?! You simple crave more. This ending, WOW!!! GIVE ME MORE!!! The worst is the wait!! Please Jessica Ruben give us more, and SOON!!!
Sound the alarms. “I love how delicate you are. Soft. You’re a siren on a quiet street. You’re all I hear.” #Swoon
You love a sexy, demanding Alpha male mixed in with a heroine you can't help but to fall in love with, this is the story for you. Move this to the top of your list!!! It's full of everything. The suspense, the angst, all the emotions this book is full of it. Jessica Ruben, you have gained a long time fan. I can't wait to see what's to come. Authors watch out, there's an upcoming RISING Star among you!!

It's alright kinda meh but somehow addictive
it's ok the overall story is overdone but I listened to it all the way through it is strangely addictive I wanted to find out the ending but it's part of a series maybe it'll get better as it goes on but doubt I'll bother after this.
