Lees meerNever stop running. And no matter what, never let the world know who you really are.
I've spent my whole life hiding. Training. Preparing. Hoping that no one will discover my secrets. What I can do. Who I am. And I've gotten so good at it, sometimes even I forget.
Until them.
The wolf pack with a ruthless reputation and a penchant for revenge. The protective fighter. The charming Brit. The shy hacker. The silent mercenary. The cruel assassin.
They see more than anyone ever has before. And even with demons of their own, they give me sanctuary. A place to hide, to rest, and maybe even a place to belong.
Only it turns into so much more. Because when they touch me, everything around me ignites, and nothing matters but them.
But these wolves have secrets. And those secrets bring enemies. And when they find out who I really am?
It's not their enemies I need to fear. It's them.
Lees meerOne secret tore my life apart.
It sent me running from the place I thought I would be safe, right into the path of untold enemies.
But when my life is in danger, the wolves I thought I'd lost for good are the ones who come for me. And they'll burn down the world to keep me safe-even if none of us trusts each other anymore.
With every moment we're forced together, every whispered apology and stolen touch, my resolve to keep them at a distance weakens. And when I realize just how much each of these men has come to mean to me, that resolve crumbles to dust.
Only there are more secrets to uncover-all our pasts lurking in the shadows. And when the monsters emerge from the darkness, there's no escaping them this time…
Lees meerLove means sacrifice.
And that's what I've done: given everything to keep those I care about safe.
Now, I'm back where it all began, trapped with the architect of my nightmares. And this time, I know he won't stop until he breaks me.
But my wolves won't stop either. They'll do anything to bring me home and end the one who has me in his sights.
Only there are more monsters and enemies than we ever could've imagined, and when new secrets are revealed, it will take everything we have to defeat them…

A woman can be great, and terrible too.
Evelina Westerly has always been “the bad guy”. As the brains, brawn, and botanist behind her family's drug empire, she's her father's ruthless secret weapon. With her days divided between perfecting her greenhouse, seeking revenge for her sister's murder, and putting a gun to the head of anyone in her way, Evelina doesn't have time for anything else. Especially not for love.
After a one-night stand with a gorgeous man at a nightclub, she's sated her urges and is back to her criminal ways. Until that same man shows up as the new Westerly lackey...under a totally different name.
But Nicholas Woodsworth's real secret is much more dangerous than an alias. He's an undercover DEA agent, and he's hell-bent on destroying the drug trade that devastated his family. When he realises the youngest daughter of the Westerly empire is the same woman he's been fantasising about since that night at the club, attraction wars violently with disgust within him.
Evelina embodies everything he's against, and he's been sent here to be her downfall. Yet the more they learn about the darkness in each other's hearts, the more alike they seem—and when hatred turns to something more, Nicholas will have to decide whether he can love a wretched woman…even if it means bringing both of their lives to ruin.
Wretched joins the Never After series as a dark and sexy reimagining of a classic tale, twisting it into an enticing new shape for mature readers.

From USA Today bestselling author K.M. Moronova comes the first book in the Dark Forces Duet: an addictive, dark romance duology set in the world of the fan-favourite Leave Me Behind.
Dark. Deadly. Irresistible.
Cameron Mortem has a problem: he can’t stop killing his partners. Officially labelled clinically insane, he’s also one of the most lethal assets in the Dark Forces – a brutal underground military operation built on obedience, survival, and silence. But an experimental drug has fractured his control, making him a liability whenever someone else is on the field. As punishment, he’s thrown back into the Under Trials: a merciless boot camp designed to break the weak and sharpen the ruthless.
His one directive? Don’t kill the new girl.
Emery Maves narrowly escapes a death sentence after her own brutal crimes, only to find herself forced into the same violent world. Assigned to Cameron, she’s expected to survive the Trials and her partner's unstable nature. But Emery quickly realises there’s more to Cameron than bloodlust and body counts. Beneath the madness lies a terrifying allure – and a strange, dangerous tenderness.
As the Trials push them to their limits, Emery must navigate the brutal demands of the Dark Forces while resisting the pull of a man who could just as easily kill her as protect her. And Cameron must fight the one urge he’s never been able to overcome.
Their bond is intoxicating, chaotic, and born of violence. And if it doesn’t destroy them both, it might just save them.
Your Knife, My Heart is a dark and enticing military romance from one of the genre’s most exciting new voices, with brutal action and pulse-pounding chemistry that will keep you hooked right to the thrilling conclusion.
