Beautiful Disaster meets Nikita. Leigh Thorn is hiding out in a backwoods college because her father put her in danger, and if the wrong people find her, she’s dead. She’d rather snort lines than think about that. She’d rather do shots of marshmallow-flavored vodka until she can’t remember. When Griffin Fawkes arrives with the news that her father’s dead, she isn’t sure if she cares. He wasn’t much of a father anyway. The only silver lining here is that Griffin’s jaw-droppingly gorgeous, and Leigh wants him bad. Griffin owes his life to Leigh's father. The man begged him to keep his daughter safe. But Griffin didn't expect a cocaine-fueled party girl who barely seems to care about her own safety. It seems like she'd rather destroy herself than anything else. Even worse, he didn't expect he'd care about her. He knows he's too damaged to ever really be with a woman. The best he can do is to make sure she’s safe from whoever could hurt her. Including herself. Including himself. Of course, fighting off men with guns is starting to seem easier than keeping his hands off Leigh.

What drove them apart? And will danger bring them back together? Griffin left after New Year's Eve. There was a misunderstanding. He thought he saw something Leigh swears he didn't see. He came back a month later. But by then, she'd already done something that Griffin thought was horrible. He couldn't be with her anymore. So, he left for good. Now, three and a half months later, a madman named Marcel is threatening Leigh, demanding that she get a message to Griffin. She doesn't have a choice. She has to go to Griffin for help. More than anything, she wants him back, but he's made it clear that he'll never forgive her. Stuck together in the same apartment, they will have to confront their problems. Because what Marcel has planned for them is so harrowing, they'll need to be able to depend on each other.

Silas Drake doesn’t do commitments. Or second dates. Or guilt. Yeah, he used to be an assassin. He used to kill people. And yeah, he breaks girls’ hearts on a routine basis. He’s an asshole. So what? When Rolf, a dangerous man from his past, arrives in Morgantown, Silas is itching to go after him. The only problem is that he’s the best man in his friends’ Griffin’s and Leigh’s wedding, which is a time-consuming distraction. Things get more complicated when Silas finds out that the random girl he took home the night before is actually Griffin’s little sister, Christa. For some reason, Griffin isn’t keen on Silas’ getting involved with her. When Rolf captures both Silas and Christa, he uses them in deadly game of cat and mouse, hunting them down for his own entertainment. They’re in the woods, on the run. Rolf has a gun, and he’s chasing them. Silas has to do everything in his power to protect Christa. But trying to keep her safe might be easier for him than facing the fact that he’s developing feelings for her.

When Sloane Drake learns her best friend Leigh has gone missing in Boston, she expects the worst. She and the rest of the ex-assassins go after Leigh to discover her whereabouts. No one’s seen her, not even Axel Whitman, the arrogant rich boy who used to be Leigh’s best friend. Sloane has always stuck to the shadows. She’s not flashy, she doesn’t take charge, and no one notices her. But when everyone else disappears as well, she’s left on her own. She’s got to find where the others have been taken, and she’s got to rescue them. Axel wants to help. He’s a careless playboy who owns a burlesque gentleman’s club and usually spends his nights snorting cocaine or screwing anything in a skirt. Helping Sloane is dangerous and exciting, and he can’t get enough of it. Furthermore, he can’t get enough of Sloane herself. Sloane knows that Axel is getting in the way of her mission. He distracts her with trivialities when she should be focusing on freeing her friends. But being with Axel makes her feel like she’s been pulled from the shadows into the light. She’s never been so… noticed.
