To own me.
We’re blurring the lines between fantasy and reality. Except true psychopaths like him have no lines.
No limits. No mercy.
Deimos is a devil who once told me to run and never look back.

All of me.

Now I’m his. A captive in his lavish home. A distraction for his fierce gaze. A plaything for his every whim.

First he was my innocent crush. Then, it wasn’t so innocent.
Eleven years older, and utterly gorgeous. Eyes that make my knees weak, arms I could get lost in, and lips that mine wanted to taste since I knew lips could do that.
I’m back after three years away at boarding school. I thought that would cure me, but there’s no cure for Vincent Cave. Not when three years have made him hardened, and growlier, and even more irresistible.
When the danger he always shielded me from comes calling, it’s Vincent and me, alone, on the run.
I’ve grown up. He’s noticed.

I taunted a monster. Now I’m caught in his claws.

A masked man from the app to enact my darkest, most depraved impulses with.
But I played games with the wrong stranger, and caught the attention of a psychopath.
Because Kratos Drakos isn’t just Greek Mafia royalty. He’s not just lethally powerful, physically massive, and dangerously gorgeous.
I’ve seen what lurks beneath his mask: a beast with a primal taste for chasing, catching, and corrupting.
Now, to stop a mafia war, I’m being wed to that very monster.
But the deeper I’m drawn into Kratos’ twisted reality, the more I realize one thing:
The most dangerous game you can play with a psychopath isn’t running away.
It’s falling for one.

Bosshole
Jagger Cole
He’s my tormentor, my forbidden temptation, and my boss.
They call Barrett King the “Demon King of Wall Street.” Arrogant, demanding, and the kind of hot that makes girls forget how to talk.
Years ago, he was my older brother’s best friend from the wrong side of the tracks. Then my wealthy family set Barrett up to take the fall for a crime he didn’t commit.
Now, he’s one of the richest, most powerful, and most gorgeous men in New York. He’s also my new boss, and he hasn’t for one second forgotten what my family did to him.
Barrett doesn’t just want me working under him. He wants me working, well, under him. He wants to consume me: body, mind, and soul.
But there’s one thing New York’s most arrogant bachelor—the man with everything—wants that I won’t let him have: my heart.
The only problem is, I’m running out of excuses for why he can’t.

Forbidden Crown (Savage Heirs, #4)
Jagger Cole

A lot.
Bastian Pierce is twice my age. Sinfully gorgeous. Notoriously wild.
He’s temptation wrapped in leather, tattoos, and Savile Row linen. And he knows it.

Before I knew the devil’s deal he’d made with my family.
Consider this my confession.
Signed with a scandal.
Sealed with the forbidden.
Delivered with a fall.

Owned by the Bratva King (Bratva's Claim, #5)
Jagger Cole
She’s been mine since the second I saw her.
It would be easy to say I have no business even looking at a girl like River Finn. She’s too young. Too innocent. Too much my daughter’s best friend.
That is, until the gorgeous forbidden fruit becomes my business. A rival bratva kingpin wants her. I want his empire. Kidnapping her as leverage should be an easy, simple business arrangement.
Except there’s nothing easy or simply about this. Not when she captures my piercing gaze. Not when she leaves me hungry and wanting. Not when her sassy mouth and dangerous curves make me weak.
But my world is strength and brutality. There’s no place in it for softness like River. There’s no room for the long-forgotten, smoldering feelings she ignites in me.
Touching her could destroy my empire. Keeping her could start a war. And yet, possession is nine-tenths of the law.
River has no business being in my world. But now, I’m making it my business to make sure she never leaves.
She’s mine—finders, keepers.
This scorching hot Bratva captive romance is a standalone story in the Bratva's Claim series. Older H/younger h, twists, turns, and so much heat you'll need a cold drink. Safe, absolutely no cheating, no cliffhanger, and a perfect happy ever after.
His Captive Bratva Princess (Bratva's Claim, #4)
Jagger Cole
I wasn’t looking for Trouble. Then he found me anyway.
I’ve played a role my entire life. The glamorous movie starlet with the “it factor” smile. The perfect little Hollywood princess saying all the right lines.
That is, until a paparazzi crisis has me jumping onto the back of a complete stranger’s motorcycle headed who-knows-where.
But my sinfully gorgeous “hero” isn’t so heroic at all. Nikolai Antonov is one of the most brutal, vicious killers in the Russian Mob. I’m a princess on the run. He’s a hitman dodging the heat from an assassination.
And now, like it or not, I’m his—his captive. His prize. The object of his fierce, hungry gaze.
But this isn’t the movies. The dominant, volatile beast of a man should terrify me, not make me weak in the knees. I should run for the hills, not tease him. Not tempt him. Not jump into bed with him…
But all that might be the least of my worries. A rival Bratva wants him dead. My psycho ex wants me back in front of the cameras. And dark secrets from both of our pasts want to drag us into the shadows.
Once upon a time in Hollywood, a princess fell for the bad guy. And that was only the beginning…
This Bratva captive romance is a steamy non-stop thrill ride that I promise will leave you breathless and aching for more. Safe, absolutely no cheating, no cliffhanger, and a perfect happy ever after.

He says I owe a debt, and I’ll pay the price by pretending to be his dead wife.
I look just like her.
The thing is, I might be her…

At least, so I’ve been told.
And I may have married a monster.

Hunted by the Bratva Beast (Bratva's Claim, #3)
Jagger Cole
The monster hunting my nightmares might be the man of my dreams.
The hell I was born into broke me, damaged me, and pieced me back together. I’ve come a long way from Russia’s foster system – now I’m third in command to my brother, the head of the Kashenko Bratva.
But the past has a way of never staying there.
There’s a demon on the loose — a huge, savage, ruthless killer they call The Beast. Kostya Romanoff has broken out of his cage looking to settle a blood debt he thinks my family owes him.
Now he’s hunting for one thing: me.
The hunt is on. But I shouldn’t like that he watches me. I shouldn’t tremble with heat and anticipation every time I feel those those eyes pierce, possess, and caress.
The prey shouldn’t ache for the hunter. The rabbit shouldn’t crave the wolf’s sharp teeth.
He’s invading my every waking thought. Corrupting every dream. And it’s getting hard to keep track of what I should or shouldn’t be feeling.
I might be the broken beauty he’s been looking for. And God help me, he might be exactly the beast I’ve always wanted.
Buckle up: this Bratva stalker/captive romance is a steamy non-stop thrill ride that I promise will leave you breathless and aching for more. Safe, absolutely no cheating, no cliffhanger, and a perfect happy ever after.

I should have destroyed her. Instead, I hired her.

But Ella Veers is the smear of color I never asked for, and never saw coming.
I’m a classical concerto, she’s a punk-rock anthem. Blue hair, ripped tights, and a sassy brat attitude that gets under my skin and stays there.

Deviant Hearts (Dark Hearts, #1)
Jagger Cole
To stop a mafia war, I’m being forced to marry my sworn enemy.
A brutal, domineering, and lethally beautiful monster with a body built for violence. Ares Drakos—new king of the Drakos Mafia family—is every inch the God of War he’s named after.
And now, I belong to him.
Our unholy union is meant to end the bloodshed between Irish and Greek. A rising tide to lift all ships.
A match made in hell. And if we can’t stop from killing each other, “until death do us part” might happen before we can say “I do”.
It’s not supposed to be real. Until it becomes something else.
Something dark, dangerous, and deliciously deviant.
The God of War might be invading my bed, my dreams, and my every sinful desire.
But there’s one thing he’ll never conquer.
My heart.
