Stolen: Hell's Overlords MC


Zoey Parker - 2016
    She's a talented thief with a nose for trouble. Things are about to get messy. SASHA I knew going in that this would be dangerous. But what choice did I have? None, that's how much. You don't say "No" to a man like Fang, the mob boss I work for. Not if you want to live to tell the tale. So I swallowed my fear and I took the mission: stealing drugs from the Hell's Overlords MC. The first time was smooth. In and out like a flash. The second time was just as easy. But the third time…that's when everything went wrong. Now, I'm trapped in a basement, staring into the stormy eyes of a man who doesn't like being robbed. Everything I feared is present in those eyes. There's anger, and strength, and brutality. But there's something else, too. Something I didn't expect, and it's scaring me more than anything else. He's hungry. Hungry for me. HER BODY ISN'T THE ONLY THING I'M TAKING AS MY OWN. COLE The first time I lay eyes on her, it feels like I got struck by lightning. You've probably heard that before, but trust me – this is different. This isn't the "struck by lightning" you see in friendly little rom-coms with happy endings. It doesn't come with warm fuzzies. It's not cute. No, the kind of lightning I'm talking about makes me want to do things, things that you might not always like. It makes me want to bite her lip like a feral dog, to squeeze her hips in my hands and rid her of every scrap of clothing. The lightning surging through my veins makes me harder than carved marble. There's only one release: to own her, again and again, until the thirst is quenched. I don't know how long that will take. But I'm willing to find out. STOLEN is a full-length, standalone romance novel with steamy hot sex, strong language, a happily every after ending, and NO CLIFFHANGERS.
