I live in a world where women are a commodity. The only value we have is as bargaining chips for men who crave more power. We are to be silent, unseen, to do as we are told. But I don’t want to be anyone's property. I want to be the one in control of my destiny.

Isla has been surrounded by monsters her entire life. She was raised with them, so it was only natural that she would date one. Trapped in a world where she's nothing but a toy to be manipulated and used, she longs to escape.

Ezekiel Summers, the son of a preacher, lost an eye because of me. Cyrus Porter, the child of a sociopath, burned a man for touching me. Levinston Cartwright, an heir to billions, used his wealth to stalk me. Three vastly different, yet dangerous men with one thing in common… An obsession with me.

Once upon a time there lived three men bonded by darkness and pain. Each fighting a past that wants to drown them. All of them damaged and broken. None of them complete. Until her.

The hunt is what we all crave. Some of us are prey while others are predators. My name is Bree Walker. He calls me little mouse. His name is Mikhail Smirnov. The man without a face. People see him as nothing but a ruthless monster but in him I find salvation.

We all have secrets we would die to protect and truths we would kill to uncover. My search for answers leads me to an abandoned church and the dwelling of three psychotic, masked men. These three Beasts are the stuff of nightmares, leaving no witnesses to the horror they sow.

Stone was my best friend. My protector. My everything. Until he wasn’t. Kids like us didn’t have the best life, riddled with trauma, bounced around in a system that didn’t want us and couldn’t handle us. In our darkest hours, we had each other.

We were the kids of addicts, discarded and forgotten about by the people who were supposed to love us the most. But together we found family and created our own solace. I never thought I would be alone because I had them. Until one night changed everything.

Ten years ago, I lived in a trailer park. Today, I live in a multi-million dollar luxury condo. Back then, I had nothing. Now, I manage the biggest rock band in the world. My life is perfect… until she comes back. Piper Hughes, the girl who knows my darkest secrets and greatest fears.

I have two things going for me in life; music and my best friend. My world is black and white because it has to be. I need control to keep myself from spinning. Order helps me stay calm. The only turbulence in my life is my bandmate and best friend.

Being infatuated with my childhood best friend was a beautiful curse. Our lives were an uphill struggle against every odd, but as long as we had each other...we had everything. Then it was all gone. Now I've built my life to perfection yet still yearning for that boy I used to know....
