EZRA Bloodied and broken, I clawed my way out of hell at twelve years old. Left a corpse behind and took with me only trauma. I’m twenty-three now, and it’s no surprise I’m haunting the streets on the wrong side of the river, stealing to survive and provide for the one person who has ever cared for me. Only, my seamless thefts have started drawing the wrong kind of attention. Threatened into the dangerous task of breaking into Sinro Enterprises, a multi-billion dollar private military company, I soon find myself at the mercy of their ruthless, beautiful CEO. Cain Vincent. To say I’m attracted to the man is an understatement. He is the definition of lethal. And when he discloses the truth about the hard drive I was supposed to steal, I’m desperate for him to take me under wing. I want him. I want to be strong like him. I want to put an end to the criminals that threatened me and spread so much evil throughout this city. But diving into mercenary work tends to summon demons. And unfortunately, my demons won’t be laid to rest with just bullets. CAIN He makes me lose all control. Ex-Special Forces and current CEO of Sinro Enterprises, I sacrifice my personal life and health to lead mercenary teams dedicated to wiping out high-profile criminals. My working hours are endless. My schedule is rigid. I leave no room for normal things like relationships. Until a pretty little thief breaks into my high-rise and shatters what I’d come to believe was peace. I find myself hesitating to pull the trigger for the first time. Ezra honestly thinks he can win me over. Manipulate my emotions. And yeah, I’ll admit I’ve never been so captivated by another person. But I’ve been burned before. I won’t tolerate betrayal. If this kid so much as blinks those long eyelashes wrong, I won’t hesitate to kill him.

All's fair in hate and hockey. My path to success never included an enemy as a teammate, especially one as infuriating as Quinton de Haas. Clawing under my skin is his favorite pastime, only feeding the animosity between us as the years pass. We’re as completely opposite as two people can be; the golden boy and the black sheep. Constantly at odds or at each other’s throats. The only thing we can agree on is hockey is our true love, and we’ll do whatever it takes to come out on top. I never imagined that drive would lead me to do the unthinkable: falling into bed with my not-so-straight rival. But athletes are a superstitious bunch, and when our hook-ups lead to victories, we tell ourselves we can’t stop. Besides, it’s all for the sake of the team, right? \Iced Out is the first in a five book standalone college sports romance series featuring two misunderstood rival teammates, pages of snarky banter, and more secret spicy times than any book should be filled with. Not suitable for anyone under 18 years of age.\

I’ve never hated anyone as much as I hate him. The day my sister died, I told her best friend I never wanted to see him again, and I meant it. I lost her because of him. Everything I used to care about means nothing now because of him. It’s all because of him. So when he shows up on my driveway two years later and tells me he’s moving in with me for his freshman year of college, I kick his ass and tell him to disappear. For good this time. But I already know the defiant little brat’s not gonna listen. He never does. Being near him again makes me crazy. I’m supposed to be the college basketball star my father raised me to be, but now I’m focused on a new game. I’m obsessed with watching him, touching him, breaking him. His body, his head, his heart, anything I can get my hands on… I’m gonna take it all until he’s got nothing left. And even though he knows exactly what I’m doing to him, he’s gonna let me do it anyway.
