Dr. River McKay moved to Denver with his husband, Terrence, hoping to give their failing marriage a new start. A year later, Terrence is gone and River’s left brokenhearted. Now, he’s decided it’s time to get back in the game. A chance encounter at the hospital introduces him to Phil, a strong-willed pharmacist who isn’t impressed by River’s degree.
Phil can’t deny his attraction to River, but dating is out of the question. Phil only does one kind of relationship — domestic servitude, where he gives the orders and his partner obeys. To his surprise, River agrees — not because he likes the idea, but because anything’s better than being alone.
They know the arrangement won’t last. Phil’s set in his ways and incapable of showing affection outside the bedroom. River’s unused to obedience and still in love with his ex. But their time together will change them, making them question everything they thought they knew about love, control, and relationships. When the unexpected threatens to tear them apart, they’ll have to choose between the comforts of the past and a future they can only find together.

Maybe then, my world wouldn't have been turned upside down and inside out.

Dare loves challenging convention.
As a Dom who looks more like a twink, Dare doesn’t mind second glances and getting people’s attention. Since he’s an exhibitionist and not shy at all, most of the time, he likes it. But when two hunky jocks spend their evening at a local club staring at him, with no intention of actually talking to him, he knows he might have found exactly who he’s looking for.
Scott and Ryan aren’t sure if they’re ready to challenge convention.
Carrying secrets is getting to be harder than Ryan and Scott ever imagined it would be, which is why they were almost ready to confess the things they’d worked so hard to keep private for years—especially from each other. But when Dare comes along and makes it clear he knows exactly what the sexy, muscular best friends are hiding, they have to decide if it’s worth coming out again for—because sometimes, it’s not just sexuality that gets hidden in a closet.
When one dominant almost-twink lands in the laps of two sexy, not-so-submissive-looking hunks, they each have to decide if they’re ready to take the next step and admit what they desperately want.

"Just when I think I'm getting a better understanding of what I am, something else comes by and knocks me on my ass."
My morning started very eventful. A rendezvous with Adriel is more than a notion. He literally wore me out, but he also made me come to terms with a lot about myself I was still trying to deny. Truth is, I wanted Raphael-powerfully so. However, I wasn't so sure about how much of that was my own desires and what part the Agoto inside me was playing in my attraction. In reality, I don't think it mattered. On top of a complicated love life, I still have to stop a triumvirate of demons from opening a portal and letting an even bigger, more badass demon through into my world. Time was running out and I needed help if I have any hope of succeeding.

"Holy crap, I learned today, that you don't piss off Adriel!"
Having located a mutilated corpse of a young man in a dumpster, I realize how serious the demon problem is. The markings on the body are the same as the markings on the other dead bodies that I was told about. That means one thing, I have to check out this club and the sooner the better. If that doesn't keep my plate full, I still have to deal with demon bad boy King, Adriel and Raphael, my pain-in-the-butt mate, both want to control my life, or rather sex life, at least. First things first, find out who's killing people in my city.
Nicholas Bella - Lovelorn
“It’s one thing to know that I’m a knight in King Adriel’s court, but it’s another thing to know what that really means.”
I’ve had one successful mission that I managed to complete by the skin of my… well, let’s just say that I wouldn’t have been able to do it without Raphael’s help. He’s become a huge part of my life now and after learning even more about myself and what my role is in our relationship, let’s just say that I think I’m adjusting rather well, considering the circumstances. On top of my personal issues—and I have plenty—the Society has tasked me with another mission. No rest for the wicked, and I do find that I’m enjoying my wickedness even more now that I’m a demon. Nonetheless, I’ve been assigned to a case where a demon is killing and feeding on a bunch of innocent people who seemed to just be a little down on their luck in the love department. Well, that just doesn’t sit well with me and I’m making it my business to bring this demon to my dinner table.
Nicholas Bella - Havoc
“As if chasing down a seriously dangerous demon that's killing people like that's the thing to do at night, I've got even more romance trouble brewing!”
I think I'm seriously in over my head at this point. First off, we're nowhere close to finding Xora, the hell demon that's killing more people than the morgue has room for. On top of that, I've found my other mate. Yeah, as if getting used to one, or make that at least three men who've been in my bed isn't enough. Now, I have another permanent one, worst yet; he's my partner's older brother, and they don't have secrets. I'm going to have to come clean and keep my game tight all while trying to save the world from a demon takeover. Good times... good times. That was my patented sarcasm, by the way.
Nicholas Bella - Chance
“Just when I thought I had enough on my plate... fate, or the cosmos or whatever, decides I'm not stressed enough and pours on another helping of what the hell!”
My failure to prevent a particularly nasty demon from completing a ritual to open a portal may have doomed us all unless I can stop what came through. That, of course, is easier said than done. Because what came through happens to be one of the most sadistic and dangerous demons that the eighth level of hell could spit out. I may be a powerful soul-eating demon, but even I don’t think that I’m a match for this demon. I know one thing, I’m going to need help.

"I've just discovered a few secrets about this new world I'm now a part of that both frightens and excites me."
I just woke up from one hell of a night. My body was still tingling all over from the mind-blowing experience of what I went through. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to reflect on that... or even bask in it. I had to attend a demonic shindig and bring an innocent human along with me, most likely for a human sacrifice if what Agent Smith from the Society has told me is true. The problem I'm having is searching for a human to bring to the slaughter. A person who's done nothing wrong. They don't deserve to be put in the line of danger, nor do they deserve to die. How am I going to keep my cover, learn more about this demon cult I'm trying to infiltrate and keep innocent people from being hurt? God, I'm so far out of my league right now. I need help, but who?
Nicholas Bella - Initiated
"I always thought I knew myself better than anyone ever could. Now, I'm not so sure."
Having been approached by some secret organization that polices the demon world, I'm now left with the choice of if I want to join them or not. My entire world has been flipped upside down. I used to just be Brian Cordero, sexy as hell cop with a body as masculine as my machismo. Life was great! Then, a month ago I met Raphael. The things he did to me changed me forever in more ways than one. Now, I'm an Agoto demon, a soul eater and apparently, that's top tier in the demon world. It's also one of the reasons I was approached by Agent Smith. Really, that's her name. Anyway, I've got a lot on my mind and I'm having a hard time focusing on what's important because I can't get Raphael's chiseled Mediterranean features out of it. I spend every waking moment thinking about sex and with what I am, I know I need him as he's my mate. But I just can't bring myself accept that. On top of that, If I do decide to joined this organization, I've been tasked with bringing in a very powerful demon into the fold.
God, what the hell am I going to do?

Nicholas Bella - Chaos
Brian: It's been three months since Adriel's half-demonic brother, Katashniel, escaped hell with his army. We managed to kill a lot of them, but so many still made it through the gate before our king could close it. I've been tasked with tracking them down and killing them which was going well until two weeks ago when things became quiet. No new demon activity, no trails, nothing. Now, I don't know what to do.
Raphael: Being in the private sector is better than the public, as I didn't have to expose myself to the humans like Brian and Andre did. But that doesn't mean I haven't felt some backlash by the fact that demons have been exposed to the world thanks to Katashniel and his army. I've been doing my part in killing those who exposed us, but lately, the demons haven't come out to play. So, now... I have to figure out what I can do to help my king defeat his brother.
Andre: It's been a rough three months and having to move in with Raphael and Brian is taking some adjustment. I still don't like that Raphael won't let me dominate him. Just doesn't seem fair that he wants to top me, but won't return the favor. I know I'd make it worth his while. On top of that, I've been up to my nipples in demon business, far more than I care for. With all the chaos that's erupted since demons have been pushed out of the closet, It's a wonder I can get any sex or sleep in at all.
Nicholas Bella - Mayhem
"I don't think I've ever been so terrified of my future as I am right now."
With less than seventy-two hours on the clock and Xora still evading King Adriel's forces, time is running out for everyone. I don't want to think about a world overrun by demons who could care less about saving humanity. I'm doing everything in my power to track this evil thing down, but I'm not having much luck. I only hope others are having better luck than I am. On top of all that, my two mates are still adjusting to the fact that they have to share me. It's like watching two rams... well... ram the hell out of each other during mating season. That ugly. With the fate of the world literally hanging in the balance, I hope I can solve at least one of my problems where my mates are concerned. The only glimmer of hope we have is that we finally caught that Natini demon who was giving Xora inspiration to be creative with her kills. So, let's see where this can lead us.
Nicholas Bella - Embraced
I’ve been betrayed by someone I trusted. Because of him, I was captured by my loathed enemy: The vampires. Right now, the sun is still high in the sky, but I know when it sets, I’m as good as dead. They can’t wait to get their fangs into me. I guess some would say I have it coming. I did raise a lot of hell with my Resistance crew, and I was planning on raising a hell of a lot more at dawn before I was sold out by Jonah. The vampires, werewolves and dragons, have been trying to track me down for months and I’d always been two steps ahead of them.
*Laughs* I guess my number is up. I just hope they make it quick. You see, the vampires in my reality aren’t the romantic lot you read about in books. They don’t sparkle or hang out at high schools with their teenage girlfriends. Hell no, vampires are brutal, calculating, sadistic and bloodthirsty. As a matter of fact, all of the monsters are! That’s how they were able to take over the world so easily and change an entire civilization to suit their needs. Whatever happens, I know it’s not going to be pretty, so I’m preparing myself for the worst. May God help me.
