1. TORN by Carian Cole
SYNOPSIS
When I was five years old, I told Toren Grace we were going to get married when I grew up. A close family friend, heβd always been my favorite person. His name was even my first word. Now that Iβve turned eighteen, I make it clear my feelings havenβt changed. Only now, my once innocent crush burns like smoldering embers.
Torβsβ―one of the good guys. Heβs my rockβloving and devoted with a strong moral compass... that makes it impossible for him to return my feelings. But one unexpected kiss between us knocks him clear off his axis. Now, we canβt forget how that kiss felt, and what it changed.
But Iβm not a little girl anymore, and heβs everything I need. Iβm everything he needs, too. We canβt deny that weβre soulmates. Yet, weβre both the one person the other should never, ever want. And neither of us can stand to let our forbidden feelings betray or hurt anyone. I know heβs struggling with the rights and wrongs, but Iβm determined for us to have our happily ever after together. The problem? Tor is fifteen years older than me. Heβs also my fatherβs best friend.
2. TIED by Carian Cole
SYNOPSIS
My innocence was stolen when I was abducted at five years old. For eleven years I held on by clinging to childhood fairytales. I waited for a prince to someday save me and carry me off to a happily ever after.
I had no idea my savior would come as a scarred recluse, covered in tattoos, who canβtβor wonβtβspeak a word.β―Nevertheless, the moment our eyes met I knew he was the one.β―My prince.
With his bare hands, he killed the monster who kept me captive. But people have a way of distorting the truth when the hero looks like a villain. As it turns out, Tyler Grace is many things: A myth. An outcast. A nightmare. Haunted by tragedy, he lives secluded in the forest. Some say they see him ride through town at nightβstraddling a black motorcycle, his face covered by a skeletal mask.
Iβve been warned to stay away, yet I canβt stop thinking about him. I ache to hear his voice. And I want nothing more than to break through his walls.β―I know heβs the only one who can break through mine. Do we dare dream of a love that once felt impossible to find? Or will only our horrible, twisted past tie us together?
