BLURB

He’s my villain, my monster, my forbidden path…

Caspian Ivanov and I come from the same dark world.
One where the Bratva and the secret society reign.
And, he’s the son of their ruthless leader.

“I’ll destroy you.”
That’s the last thing he said to me.
It was on the night of the Reaping.
Hard to believe we were ever best friends.
His vengeance is, however, the price I pay for keeping a secret I shouldn’t have kept.
A secret that ripped our families apart.
It made us forbidden to each other.
That’s when he became the viperous devil.
Breathtakingly beautiful but with a cold black heart.
Like any snake, he wanted to poison me.

When our paths collide at Raventhorn University, I stay away from him.
What I don’t expect is to become his obsession.
Or to be forced to become his wife.

Except, we might not get to say I do.
Because someone wants me dead.

Cruel Lies is the first part of the Cruel Secrets Duet and is NOT standalone.
It is a dark mafia/ secret society college bully romance filled with mystery, suspense, and plenty of sizzling hot steamy scenes.

Please be warned this book is DARK. It contains dubious and other triggering situations that some readers might find offensive or be sensitive to. Please don't read if any of that bothers you.

EXCERPT

“Smells good.” Dallas dropped a kiss below my ear on his way past me to get creamer from the fridge.
“Muffins are almost done. We’re both about to find out whether or not I can flip an omelet.”
My temperature rose as he watched me intently from the edge of the island, his forearms holding his weight, coffee mug cradled between his hands. As the tip of his tongue appeared at the corner of his mouth, I had to look away. My insides were threatening to liquefy, and a pulse started beating between my thighs.
There was no reason for a single person to be so gorgeous, especially when they were also as talented as he was at procuring orgasms. It wasn’t fair.
I saw him shift out of the corner of my eye as I poured the scrambled eggs into a buttered skillet. I added a special blend of spinach, cream cheese, and artichoke hearts, motions faltering as the warmth of his body shifted behind me.
“What—”
“Shh. Keep cooking.” His words were low and heavy, the heated breath of them caressing my lower back, his palms on my hips.
His hands slid down the outside of my legs, then under the hem of my nightshirt, fingertips stopping as he discovered I wasn’t wearing panties.
“Naughty.”
I couldn’t see his face, but I could feel his smirk. He pressed a kiss to my sensitive inner thigh. Which meant… he was on his knees. Behind me.
As my slow brain processed this information, Dallas’ warm tongue found my center without error, his strong fingers gripping my thighs.
“Oh, my God.” Uncooked egg splattered the counter as I dropped the rubber spatula. Lust roared through my body as he worked my core with his mouth, my eyes dropping closed, pleasure whipping through my body.
“Don’t you dare burn my eggs, Terror. I’m starving.”

EXCERPT

What the heck happened back there?
I close my eyes and try to remember, but I can’t navigate through the hazy mess that’s fogging my mind. I have no fucking clue how I ended up on that bed with her on top of me. The last thing I remember is getting up to leave, and then I blacked out. Then, out of nowhere, it hits me. The glass of coke.
She drugged me.
But why? What did she have to gain by drugging me and sleeping with me? Was there something she needed that she wasn’t getting? If she wanted sex so bad, I don’t doubt Lucas would have obliged. Though that thought makes my blood boil. The point is that she’s not the type of person who needs to drug guys to get them to fuck her, so why me?
As angry and confused as I am, I can’t deny that I’m at fault too. Nothing excuses what happened back there. I managed to get my hands free, and instead of pushing her away, I grabbed her ass and shoved deeper into her, as far as I could go. The stunned, excited look on her face when I filled her up haunts my thoughts even now.
I rub my forehead, the killer headache that is beginning to form behind my skull almost a punishment for my crime. I’m in a position I swore I’d never let myself get into. It’s not like I can report what happened because my body wanted it as much as she did. On some disturbed level, I think I feel relief that it happened the way it did, which is all kinds of fucked up.
Eventually, I would have messed up and crossed that line, and once I did, there would’ve been no going back. At least this way I can feel better about myself.
No.
What happened was wrong on so many levels. There’s something seriously wrong with her. And for me to sit here and justify it all like that, there must be something wrong with me.

RELEASE BLITZ: Pack Bunco Night by L.A. Boruff, Lacy Carter Andersen, & Lia Davis

NEW PWF ADVENTURE!
Pack Bunco Night by L.A. Boruff, Lacey Carter Andersen, and Lia Davis is now available and #free with #kindleunlimited!

Universal: https://geni.us/PackBuncoNight

BLURB:
A bunny bit me on the finger and everything went sideways after that. That’s just the beginning of my insane life. The Fascinators, the local ladies’ club, suddenly are incredibly interested in having me join their next Bunco night, which is a thinly veiled excuse to drink and gossip. I’ve been dying to get into that group for years; why now? I’m over forty, my daughter is grown, and all I do is temp work. What’s so special about me?

After I shift into a dragon, things become clearer. They’re not a Bunco group. The Fascinators are a pack of shifters. Yes, shifters. Like werewolves, except in this case it’s weresquirrels and a wereskunk, among others.And my daughter? She wants to move home, suddenly and suspiciously. As excited as I am to have her home, why? She loves being on her own. It’s got something to do with a rough pack of predators, shifters who want to watch the world burn. I hope she’s not mixed up with the wrong crowd. There’s also a mysterious mountain man hanging around out of the blue. Where was he before the strange bunny bite? Nowhere near me, that’s for sure.

Life is anything but boring. At this point, I’m just hoping that I’ll survive it all with my tail—literally—intact.

Blurb:

"You got married on your divorce-cation?"

That would unfortunately be correct.

I was hanging with the girls, celebrating my divorce when I saw him, my crush, sitting in the corner of the bar all alone. Being single and looking for a wild night, I asked him if he wanted to join me. To my delight, he said yes.

Drinks were consumed, fun was had and then . . . one drunken conversation with a cranky gondolier in Las Vegas led to an Uber lift through a drive-thru wedding chapel with the incredibly hot, British bad boy, Pike Greyson.

On paper, it seemed like I hit the jackpot. And if I wasn't fresh from a toxic marriage, I would have absolutely noticed the finer things about him.

But I wanted nothing to do with being married, so when I arrived back home from my eventful weekend in Vegas, the last thing I expected to see was a new doting husband already moved in.

I asked for an annulment, he pulled a Ross Geller and said no.

That's right, he said NO! Instead, he asked for three months to prove we could be good together.

Insanity clearly knocked him in the head and the only way I could convince him to give up on our sham of a marriage was to show him just how wrong we were for each other. Only problem with that was, he saw right through my every prank, every trick, and every yearning emotion I attempted to mask.

AUTHOR BIO


A.K. Evans is a contemporary romance author of over twenty published novels. While she enjoys writing a good romantic suspense novel, Andrea’s favorite books to write have been her extreme sports romances. That might have something to do with the fact that she, along with her husband and two sons, can’t get enough of extreme sports. 

Before becoming a writer, Andrea did a brief stint in the insurance and financial services industry and managed her husband’s performance automotive business. That love of extreme sports? She used to drive race cars! 

When Andrea isn’t writing, she can be found homeschooling her two sons, doing yoga, snowboarding, reading, or traveling with her family. She and her husband are currently taking road trips throughout the country to visit all 50 states with their boys.
