Tragic and Twisted fell in love... Ave Satanas, something wicked this way comes.It's time for the reckoning to begin.Enter the Devil's Playground wary where you tread, for demons are lurking with trickery up their sleeves.Here good and bad cease to exist, and not all will make it to the end.The price of freedom will be revealed only after bloodshed and rapture. A claiming of one and purging of others. That audio recording played exactly three minutes before the crash.It was a riddle, a warning, and a promise. But they didn't know that until it was too late.Now stranded with two friends and a group of apprehensive strangers, Liliana Serpine must decide who and who not to trust as they navigate their way through hell in the form of an opulent city.There's one person who stands out among the others. He's got a gorgeous face and darkly enigmatic aura. Being drawn to him is inevitable but staying by his side becomes necessary to survive.When secrets start being revealed in blood, everything changes. From dabbling in the taboo, being tempted by the forbidden, and falling in lust with the carnage.For those that make it out of this alive, they'll never be the same people they once were. **Warning** Devil's Playground is a dark new adult (not high-school) series. There are graphic situations and content some readers may find objective. If you need fluff and sweet romance this is not the series for you. Books 1 & 2 tie together. The remaining books in the series are individual standalones.

Periculum

Calista "I am the monster they created. I'm the whore they're ashamed of." When life tried to break me I grabbed that b*tch by the throat and squeezed. I thought I could overcome anything. I swore I could handle him, but after being forced to play at the Devil's playground I ended up craving his touch. One taste of his poison made my loyalties begin to waiver. Romero "I'm a living nightmare, I'm everything they fear." I've been called the Devil, deranged, and a savage. I lived by a code created by rebel souls. We were sinners and thieves that made no apologies for taking whatever the f*ck we wanted. Saving a girl in the woods was never part of my plans, but when I saw the crazy in her eyes I knew it was a match made in hell. Now secrets are piling up, the bodies are rotting, and time is running out to finish what I started. Forewarning, our story is more than a little f*cked up. Authors Note: 18+ I am not going to put a long 'warning' on this book. I will say that Savages is a VERY cautionary tale that has no regard for hard limits. Reader discretion IS highly advised. *This book contains dystopian elements*

Savages

When something is forbidden, it becomes maddeningly tempting.Judas Barron, for example. Wicked blue blood and heir to a severely twisted cutthroat society.Everyone knew who he was and what crew he ran with-a clandestine group of filthy rich kids surrounded by ominous secrets. Secrets that were rumored to be dark, dirty, and stained with blood.It was never my intention to get tangled up with them, but Judas and I had a secret too, one he was determined to make sure I took with me to my grave, which meant keeping me by his side.Now forced to be part of a savage coterie, I start to see his world through a new pair of eyes. It isn't long before temptation becomes something dangerous and wild, breeding the sickest kind of infatuation.And those secrets Judas keeps? They're about to tear my life apart.**WARNING**Before beginning this series please be aware that while LK is mild in terms of darkness, the following books in this series will be on a drastically different level, containing graphic violence, total power-control, explicit sexual content, and varying triggers. LK is a prelude that sets the stage for the rest of the series. 18+ only.

A Dark Bully Romance

Lawless Kingdom

-Calista- Sick bitch Maniac Out of my fucking head. I'm not broken. I'm just a little damaged. I'm stronger now, stronger than I ever knew. And it's all because of him. This is only the beginning but I already know how it's going to end. I'll be claiming my throne and they'll be buried in the dirt. -Romero- Deranged Psychopath Out of my fucking mind We both know how it's all going to end. The blood we shed will stain our hands. There's not a warning out there that could prepare anyone for this.

Deviants

*Grimm* Pariah. Dark Messiah. Harbinger of death. My reputation has always preceded me. I'm a brother to the queen of the Badlands. I'm one of the few confidants to her fiancé-the devil himself. And those whispered rumors that I'm a silent killer, a true harvester of souls? They're true. People never see me coming. I don't discriminate, I show no mercy, and I feel no remorse. My only loyalty is to my family and when someone important to them goes missing, I vow to do whatever is necessary to track her down and bring her back. But the person I find is not the same woman who was stolen away. Something's different about her. Something I find myself drawn to as we fight our way back to hell. *Arlen* Stubborn. Reckless. Original family disappointment. My reputation has never preceded me. I'm supposed to be this spoiled, rich b*tch who does everything her daddy tells her. I was forbidden to even think about the Badlands. But money means nothin to me and my paradise was a pretty cage I refused to be trapped in. I fought my way out, I found a new family, and even though sh*t got tough sometimes it all worked out in the end. And then I got kidnapped. I thought it was over for me. I almost broke. I should have known he would never let that happen. And I should have realized something inside me had shifted. Maybe then I'd have seen the signs that I was falling for an irredeemable man. A man who taught me that there was power in taking away a life. A man who showed me just how beautiful hell truly was. It's only fair I warn you that this is not a story about a rescued damsel in distress. This is a story about what happens when a man who collects souls finally meets his match. *Outcasts is the 3rd book in the Badlands series. This book can be read as a standalone but I recommend starting Savages & Deviants first.*
