Dawn (Hero Society Book 1)

by Jessica Florence

  All my powers had ever done is cause chaos.

  I drank some more and turned my head around to look at all the people moving their bodies with the music on the dance floor.

  This club was pretty popular and being a Friday night the place was packed even more so.

  If I’d stayed the course of normal human, I would have probably been out there with them. Wishful thinking. I wasn’t normal, no matter how hard I wished on a damn shooting star.

  I started to turn around when my eye caught the stare of one of the dancers in the hanging bird cage.

  Her eyes sparkled with trouble as she looked me over. A bright smile grew on her face and I found myself staring at her lips.

  For a moment as I watched her I thought about what it would be like to walk over to her, pull the bars of her cage back with my strength, and let the girl have at what she was letting me know she wanted through her sexual stare.

  It would probably scare her.

  Once my thoughts started going down that avenue there was no going back.

  Not even the taunting of her swaying hips and curling finger telling me to come to her could break my resolve.

  I looked into her eyes one more time before digging into my pocket and fishing out enough to pay the bill.

  Once upon a time, darling, I thought to myself as I turned toward the door. Time to go back to my life of solace, and start tomorrow fresh. No thoughts of sexy club dancers, and definitely no Hero Society conversations in my future to come.

  The Final KO

  I fight bitches for a living.

  Which makes finding a decent guy hard when you're a female MMA fighter. None of them have been my equal. I yearn for a man who can push me to reach new heights and challenge me. A man who will treat me like a lady then lift me up by my ass and impale me against the wall.

  But when Arson Kade, MMA's top fighter and notorious manwhore, declares he's that man for me I have my doubts. Any sane woman would.

  There seems to be more to Arson than the rumors that surround him, but will it make me fall hard or run for the hills?

  I know I've got no choice but to hold on for the ride.

  It's the main event and my heart's on the line.

  But will it be the Final KO?

  The Final Chase

  I never thought a wallaby, Henley shirts, and a horse’s rectal exam would have anything in common.

  Turns out they did.

  Jake Wild. Owner of Wild Rescue for exotic animals.

  He’s everything I’m not, my polar opposite.

  I’m heels and my salon,

  he’s dirt and his creatures.

  But much like the animals he cares for, he’s got that carnal edge.

  He’s the type of man you crawl on your hands and knees for with your ass up in the air.

  He bites, he's on the hunt, and now I’m his prey.

  A chance meeting and a bet started the undeniable attraction between us.

  But I’m not giving my heart and soul away that easy, he’s going to have to catch me first.

  It's the ultimate game of cat and mouse.

  But will it be the Final Chase?

  Long Drive

  There is a long road in everyone’s journey in life.

  For some people, it’s a way to get from one place to another.

  For others, it’s a search for one’s purpose in existence.

  For me, the road was where I could find peace.

  When everything in my life had shattered, I turned to the road.

  And that’s where I met him.

  Killian Lemarque.

  A beautiful truck driver, and my salvation.

  One month on the road together is the deal, and when it’s over, I will have hopefully figured out what I’m going to do about my torn reality.

  But sometimes the road can change everything.

  One Month. One Truck. One Long Drive.

  How You Get The Girl

  As Hollywood’s hottest actor, getting a woman in my bed is never a challenge.

  Then I spotted her at a bar—she wanted a man for the night, and I jumped at the chance to fill the role. I gave her Joel Kline’s best, and she smacked my pretty face.

  But don’t worry, that’s not the end of our story. Her brand of crazy inspired me, and I had to see her again, no matter the cost.

  Now, Alessandra Rose is my lead makeup artist for the next four months.

  Literally, her job is to touch me every day for the duration of filming. Sounds like a win, right?

  Nope, she stops me at every hint of a flirt. I’m in uncharted waters for once.

  Joel Kline’s famous techniques to get the girl are failing me. It’s no longer about those sexy Brazilian lips, or her fiery spirit that gives me a hard-on.

  It’s about making her banana pancakes after she spends the night in my home.

  It’s about knocking down those walls around her, claiming her as mine.

  She’s going to fight me, of course, unwilling to accept that it’s not all an act.

  But I’m not going anywhere; that’s how you get the girl.

  Guiding Lights

  He sings of suffering. His eyes hold the pain of living in sorrow.

  The moment our gaze meets recognition flares within.

  We are tortured souls drifting in a sea of darkness.

  He knows I have secrets that I'll never tell.

  I am numb.

  I am broken.

  I am dirty.

  I can never be the guiding light through the darkness he thinks I am.

  I have forsaken my past, I rely on keeping myself shut off.

  But he has secrets too, secrets that wo
uld destroy everything I have left.

  I wish things were different, that maybe we could be each other's lifeline.

  But destiny drags us down like an anchor.

  The broken can only drift in the sea barely staying afloat.

  Blinding Lights

  She dances with a passion I'll never know.

  Seeing her again tears me at the seams.

  She was never mine.

  My soul is stained with the darkness of death.

  I have killed.

  I have tortured.

  I have lost.

  Her soul is too bright for the shadows within,

  and her determination to be the flame in my heart could kill us both.

  Still, I want her, I crave her.

  But not even her blinding lights can fight away the darkness threatening us both.

  Eventually, everything gets snuffed out.

  Weighing of the Heart

  What happens when the myths of old become reality?

  Thalia Alexander has lived her life in peace until her twenty-fifth birthday when she has a strange dream about a man.

  A tall, dark, and sexy man that shows up at her work the next morning.

  Tristan Jacks is trouble with a capital T, but for some strange reason she is drawn to him like nothing she has ever experienced before. He has this possessiveness and adoration for her that she can’t explain. It’s like they have known each other forever.

  Thalia’s strange dreams continue to stalk her as her relationship with Tristan builds to be a love that will last the ages.

  And when those dreams and reality start to clash, will Thalia be able to handle the truth?

  Could the world of ancient myths truly exist in modern times?

  Evergreen

  It was supposed to be an easy stakeout.

  Until a bunch of bachelorettes mobbed me, changing my life forever.

  I couldn't get Andi Slaton, with her red hair, blue eyes, and cotton candy-flavored lip gloss,out of my head.

  But when she offers herself to aid the FBI to help me take down the biggest criminal family in Tampa, Florida, my very sanity is put to the test watching her spend time with my arch enemy.

  She's everything I want, I will be everything to her.

  We will be Evergreen.
