    Kenner follows up her breathtaking Stark Trilogy with three sizzling standalone novels featuring unforgettable alpha males—and the seductive games they play. This is the series that led RT Book Reviews to proclaim, “Kenner may very well have cornered the market on sinfully attractive, dominant antiheroes and the women who swoon for them.” Now all three installments are available in one addictive ebook bundle:  WANTED He is everything I crave, all I desperately want—and he is everything I can’t have.   Evan Black embodies my every fantasy. He is brilliant, fierce, and devastatingly handsome. But he is also headstrong, dangerous, and burdened with secrets. My family warned me to stay away, that I could never handle Evan’s dark dealings or scarred past. Maybe I should have listened. Maybe I should have run. But our desire is undeniable, and some temptations you just can’t fight. And from the moment we touch—the passion between us consuming us both—I know that I will never be the same.  HEATED  I knew better than to risk my heart. But fierce passion comes at a high price.   I grew up believing in right and wrong, good and evil, black and white. I knew better than to trust. And then I met Tyler Sharp. Bold, charming, and dangerously sexy, Tyler always gets what he wants. But his smile can be deceiving, his dealings sordid, his ambitions ruthless. I thought I was the one woman strong enough to resist him, but our need for each other was too urgent to deny. One look and I was in trouble. One touch and I was hooked. One night and I became his. And now that I’ve fallen, there’s no going back.  IGNITED  He promised to take me as far as I could go—and I wanted to go to the edge.  My whole life has been a cover, a con, a lie. I was born into the grift, raised on the thrill of playing someone I’m not. As a rule, I never let anyone get too close—until Cole August makes it impossible for me to stay away. Cole is tough, sexy, and intensely loyal, yet his secrets are dark and his scars run deep. Not many women can handle his past, or the truth behind his fierce demands. But something about him beckons me—and our desire is a game I must play. I know he’s dangerous, that even his touch is trouble, but what is passion without a little risk?  Praise for the Most Wanted series  “Wanted is another J. Kenner masterpiece. . . .
