Even as a child, Vanity’s beauty is unmatched. In the suburbs of Houston, Texas, six year old Vanity is enjoying what she and her parents believe to be a safe and normal life, soaking up the summer, along with her playful best friend, Larenz. While she shouldn’t have to be on alert, her naivety and desire to keep up with Larenz leave her vulnerable, causing her to be ripped from her mother and father’s loving arms in an instant, never to be seen as a child again. Larenz grows up with a hole in his heart for the friend that was stolen from him, and the driving force in his life has been using his position as an officer to reunite Vanity with not only himself, but her family, but what he finds is only the shell of the little girl he once knew. Vanity is now an adult, and her life no longer makes sense. After being used and abused by different men, her life seems to have no purpose. Even with love all around her from her family and best friend, she still can’t see how truly captivating she is inside and out, but Larenz is determined to help restore her faith in herself and inhumanity if it’s the last thing he does. Larenz’s girlfriend, Pryncess believes he’s obsessed with helping Vanity, and his need to “fix” her could cost him his relationship. What Pryncess doesn’t realize is Larenz doesn’t want to change Vanity, he seeks to save her from the street life she can’t let go of to settle back into society. Tensions run high when Pryncess becomes consumed with making Vanity the problem in what she considers to be a perfect relationship between her and Larenz, and Larenz’s choice to keep Vanity in his life could be detrimental. In Sha Jones’ latest love story, there’s no deeper love than love of self and the understanding of love received.

    Lots of suspense, mystery, and romance. No cliffhangers! Bonus book included. Book 1: Alex – The Panther Alex is assigned to work with the gang’s point of contact, a beautiful, clever woman named Tony, who immediately manages to get the dark Alex to open up to her and to himself in a way that nobody ever has before. As Alex and Tony fall for each other, they do their best to take down Sanchez’s operation in the city using Alex’s dark connects, but he doesn’t know that Tony has a dangerous secret, one that could destroy them both before the end of the mission. Book 2: Nick – The Bear Nick is a bear shifter on the verge of death the day he is wheeled into Dr. Lilith Cole’s office, his body ravaged by a brutal fight with a roomful of Sanchez’s shifters. Lilith finds that she feels a connection to him before he even wakes up, and though she tries to deny it, she can’t resist how she feels about him the moment he opens his eyes. Awake and alert, Nick is determined to prove to himself and to his commander that he is capable of working the dangerous missions. Lilith finds herself irresistibly drawn to the big shifter, drawn into a conflict so deep that she might just be risking her life as well as her heart. Book 3: Noah – The Powerful Noah is a multi-shifter with the ability to change into any animal, but his remarkable, rare ability doesn’t help him when faced with one of Sanchez’s people, a beautiful witch named Fiona. Noah is surprised when Fiona saves him from the fire that he sets to free Lilith Cole from her imprisonment, especially considering the fact that shifters and witches have a blood feud that goes back for centuries. Fiona and Noah hate each other, but they can’t deny their attraction for one another, fierce and powerful in the face of their disdain for one another. Book 4: Gabriel – The Witch Gabriel is too powerful. A rare combination of a shifter and witch, he is unable to control either side of his powers. Knowing his potential and how powerful he can be, Liam sends him on a mission to search the addresses that they found to places possibly belonging to Sylvester Sanchez, along with a psychic who has the ability to read the history of places she enters. Sophie is the opposite of Gabriel in every way—excited and charming, nothing like the dark, brooding witch. Chapter 5: Liam – The Leader After they finally locate Sylvester Sanchez’s main headquarters in the middle of the Amazon rainforest, Elise insists on going on the mission with them, not convinced that Liam’s personal vendetta against Sanchez won’t get in the way of completing the mission successfully. The closer they get to the compound, the more it becomes obvious that Elise has been hiding something dark and dangerous, something that has the ability to either save the entire squad or watch them burn in front of her.

     Yeah, I’m a male escort, but that doesn’t mean my body’s for sale. I provide companionship to women who can afford it and understand my rule. It’s simple really. I need to be in control, not my body. Someone already screwed me once when I lost control, and not in the good way. So, no sexual contact. Sure. I’ll kiss them, and I’ll even give them a little strip tease if they don’t mind seeing the scars from my SEAL days, but nothing more. Damn. At least that’s the way it’s supposed to be. The way it was. Until her. Until Serena. The little socialite gets under my skin and is hot as sin. I was just supposed to be her arm candy for a few events, but I can’t help it. I want more. I want her. And I want to break my one simple rule.
