There’s no absolution for the things I’ve done. But I found a way to control my impulses. I became a priest. As Father Magnus Falke, I suppress my cravings. As the headteacher of a Catholic boarding school, I’m never tempted by a student. Until Tinsley Constantine. The bratty princess challenges my rules and awakens my dark nature. With each punishment I lash upon her, I want more. In my classroom, private rectory, and bent over my altar, I want all of her. One touch risks everything I stand for. My faith. My redemption. And even my life. As if that could stop me. I need her pain, and her heart, and she needs my lessons in sin. The thrilling and sizzling final installment in the More Than A Threat series. Can their hope for forever be enough to get them through the final mission? This was the worst plan ever. Putting her on the front line, smack in the middle of the danger, went against every protective instinct ingrained in Casey Weston. Identifying the human trafficking group, rescuing the victims, and keeping Kate unharmed was potentially too much for even the highly trained team to achieve. One thing was for certain: if they made it out it alive, Casey intended to keep Kate in his life--forever. What in the heck did Kate sign herself up for? At least this time she had Casey and the others by her side. When the carefully crafted plan imploded into an epic gun battle, Kate found herself in over her head and unable to tell friend from foe. Captured and weak, Kate's only focus was on survival. Because if she made it through alive, she was determined to never let Casey out of her life ever again. A threat brought them together; her independence nearly tore them apart. Will their combined hope for a future together be enough for a happy ever after?

She was the shining light in my black hole of an existence, and I loved her with every cell and bone in my body. I wasn’t good enough for her, though—more the villain than the hero in our fairy tale.

Did that mean our story was over? I couldn't change our past. It was time to rewrite our ending. °• Simmer •° Simmer (verb): to stew gently below or just at the boiling point; to be in a state of incipient development My life was always at a simmer… only stewing, never going anywhere. I was left to fend for myself when it came to affection or love, so I learned to go without. I refused to let them see how broken and lonely I was; it was much easier to hide behind a false reality. I didn't want anyone's pity. I didn't need it. Pity wouldn't put food on the table or keep a roof over our heads. That was all me. Now, I have a second chance at a dream long forgotten. It demands hard work and sacrifice—with absolutely no distractions. A recipe I already know all too well, raising a daughter on my own. Drew Kostas is everything I’ve ever wanted but couldn't let myself have. He’s younger, gorgeous, charming—and relentless. He sees beyond the hardened shell I’ve built to protect myself, coaxing out a softer me I don't recognize. It doesn't matter how I melt in his presence when the heat between us threatens to boil over. That's the thing about heat. When it rises, everyone gets burned. Especially when they're foolish enough to fall in love. °• Pining•° Before she tells the world about us, I need to tell her the truth. The bad guy never gets the girl...

Or so I thought, until my professor told me my perfection was boring and unoriginal. Studying abroad in Florence has taught me one thing: I know nothing when it comes to what makes art truly beautiful. So, with my professor's words in my ear, I step outside one evening and decide to say yes to any and everything I'm faced with until the sun rises. Of course, I didn't expect him to show up. Liam Benson, the broody, sexy, tortured artist from my class who I can't stand. He's got a sour outlook on the world and an ego so big no one could properly stroke it to his satisfaction. When he finds out what I'm doing, he hijacks my "yes" night. And after just twelve hours with him, I'm desperate for more. But Liam is running from more than I could ever understand, and with his heart guarded and mind made up about life, I don't stand a chance. I convince myself that we can keep it casual. But walking away from him at the end of the summer is as impossible as painting outside the lines. I used to think when you're an artist, everything has to be perfect. Turns out everything has to be painful, and messy, and fleeting. If only I'd known that before I fell under Liam Benson's spell. They say love makes the world go around. Mason Lowell set mine spinning. One night. Three kisses. And the promise of more when morning came. While the city of London slept, he made good on our promise. Only to cut me with his words as the sun broke. I ran from him—I always ran. But Mason Lowell was different, and he wouldn’t let me go without a fight, finding my flaws and embedding himself into them. My push was strong. I spent my whole life perfecting it. But his pull was unashamedly stronger, and the rope he bound around my heart was his to pull at will. Love was shared—so much love. Promises were made—he broke every one.
