I might have been the one who walked away, but that doesn’t mean I’m not still haunted by her - by what I did to her. But that’s the thing about ghosts…they always return when you least expect it. My stepsister was an outlet for my pain, but everything has changed. Now I’ve got nothing to lose. If she thought I hated her the first time we met, then she’s about to get a shock. The rage I felt didn’t compare to the fury that now consumes me. I might be empty, but I’m going to show her how it feels by taking away everything she has...one painful piece at a time.

After six years of living in denial, Luca is finally faced with the truth. A brutal discovery he refused to accept when I needed him most. Now the vengeance he so desperately craves isn’t directed at me, but the monster responsible for destroying all our lives. That might put us on the same side this time, but that doesn’t mean I can forgive him for not believing me. Or for hating me when I loved him.

Not all lessons can be learned in a classroom. I went back to school to make something of myself - it was all about me. Until her...My teacher. One look in those sad eyes and every other reason for being in that classroom is erased. She’s lost. That much is obvious. Damn if I didn’t want to be the one to find her, to hell with rules. I wasn’t expecting to fall so hard and fast. Her struggle to discover who she’s meant to be stirs something inside me. When her past threatens to destroy what we have, I’ll do what it takes to keep her safe...and make her mine.

Trey was only meant to be a distraction, someone I’d never see again. Turns out, the man starring in my wild fantasies is also occupying the desk next to mine. My experience with men tells me that he can’t be trusted, but my heart, and body, tells me something different. His demands for more weaken my resolve, and I find myself craving a man that’s over a decade my senior. I can’t escape the memories of our sizzling night together.... I don’t want to. He could be different, but was I willing to repeat my mistakes to find out?

USA Today and Wall Street Journal best-selling author Tracy Lorraine brings you this dark bully college romance collection that includes Leon & Macie’s duet: "The Devastation You Reap" and "The Retaliation You Deliver". From the twisted lies that torment them to the dangerous truth that could set them free.

I’m a nobody...until everybody realizes who I am and who I’m related to. Then, it’s like a giant target that is painted on my back. They all think they can use me to climb the Rosewood High royalty ladder. They obviously underestimate me. I won’t cower down or give in. They can’t break me. But he can...without even trying.

Cole thought going on tour with the UK's most up-and-coming singer-songwriter was going to be wild. Little did he know that the gossip about Chase's lifestyle of partying and girls was far from the truth. He's a moody musician with one hell of a sexy body, but his personality and attitude leaves a lot to be desired. Cole can't understand why despite not really liking Chase, he feels so drawn to him from the second their eyes connect.

First rule of teaching...don’t fall for a student. I was finally starting over. New city. New job. New me. Until him.... He’s about to turn my clean slate upside down when he walks into my college classroom. From the first moment we connect, it’s like he’s daring me to live the life I’ve always craved, a life on the edge...not caring what others think.

Addison thought she’d left all the lies behind her. The plan was beginning to fall into place. Addison’s been given an opportunity she could only dream of, and things between her and Blake have been pretty unbelievable. She had no idea she was missing out on so much with her ex. Everything seems too good to be true. But is the arrival of an unwanted visitor is the beginning of her luck running out?

She never expected his heartfelt promises to be broken. Blake’s heartfelt words that he would never hurt Addison were just that: words. She didn’t believe she’d ever have to go through that again. But is Blake right? Is it different this time? Can he prove that what they have is worth it and, when he makes another promise, can Addison trust him?

Craving her was wrong...losing her was a necessity. What we had was real, but it's over. Ancient history. She was under my skin, but I was under her dad's roof. He warned me to stay away, but I couldn't. We risked everything, and I lost it all, to protect us both. Now I'm empty, and it's all too clear what's missing. Or, rather, who. None of the women who warm my bed can ever fill the void inside my shattered heart.

Losing her nearly destroyed me. Reclaiming her is something I've waited years for. I can see it in her eyes, feel it in her touch. The desire, the temptation, she needs me just as much as I need her. But there's something else there, defiance. She’s never forgotten me, after all this time, but has she forgiven me? Turns out she's forgetting one thing...she’s mine. I'm not letting go this time.

Can lust at first sight turn into happily ever after? I’m a bad boy, or so everyone thinks. Women assume I’ll show them a good time and then walk away. But I want more. I want to find my queen. One look at her and I know she’s the one. Just when I think everything’s perfect, her fear takes her away from me. But when tragedy strikes, there’s no way I’m passing up a second chance to make her mine. Is it possible to fall even harder for her once I know the truth?

She’s my best friend’s little sister. The one woman I’ve vowed never to touch. There’s just one problem: I’m in love with her. I always have been. Now, she’s pregnant with my child, and I’ve never been more terrified. My life isn’t as easy as everyone thinks, and if I allow her in, she’s going to learn all my well-kept secrets.

Hate is easy. Love takes courage. My life is sweet. I work hard, party harder, surf whenever the hell I want and get any woman I desire. It can’t get any better. Then, my worst enemy moves to town. I’ve hated her from as early as I can remember, and now she’s taunting me once again. Or tempting me? It seems the girl who plagued my younger years is now a woman I can’t get out of my head. I’m falling for my childhood enemy. Nothing good can come of this, or can it?

She's mine, every last broken, beautiful bit of her. I’ve always been different. Always been the nice one. The misunderstood one. Everything changed when I found her, the woman I've been waiting for. Hoping for. The one. Then, she left. Now she's back, and she's nothing like I remember. She’s broken. Harboring dark secrets that beg to be exposed. And that's fine, because I've got some sordid secrets of my own. It’s time for her to submit to the one thing she truly desires. Me. All of me.

People think I’m a suave businessman, but they couldn’t be more wrong. The expensive suit is just covering the ugly scars of my past. I have no interest in love or making promises that I can’t keep. Until I find her in my hotel suite. She’s a broken mess, and everything in me wants to protect her. To make her mine. I’m falling for my employee, and she should be running far away from me.

From that very first night, when Erica fell into my lap, I wanted her. More than anything. I’m addicted to her. Those curves, that smart mouth...but most of all, the darkness she thinks she keeps hidden in her eyes. I’ve spent weeks trying to break down her walls, discover what she's hiding, but I'm keeping secrets of my own. When she finds out the truth, there is no turning back. I can't demand that she hear me out, when I’ve no idea where she is.

I’m not fussy about the men I share my bed with, but my heart is another matter. Loving someone too much goes hand in hand with pain and suffering. It’s not something I want in my life. Then I meet him. Just one kiss and he finds his way in. It’s just a shame I don’t have the same effect on him. Can I convince him that he’s the only one for me despite what my reputation says? I’m falling for a man whose sole intention is run as far away from me as he can.

My prim and proper world is turned upside down when he walks into my college classroom, demanding attention with a single look, his braces and glasses at complete odds with his defined body and bad boy tattoos. From the first moment we connect, it’s like he’s daring me to live the life I’ve always craved, a life on the edge...not caring what others think.
