Shattered series (Books 1-3) & Sweet Torment series (Book 1) by Joya Ryan


Graduate student Katelyn Gunn is headed for her first day of assistant teaching when she is almost hit by a car. The nervous and inexperienced Kate is shocked to realize that it isn’t the near death experience that has her heart racing, but the sinfully sexy man behind the wheel. Adam Kinkade is ultra-wealthy, devastatingly handsome, and the most powerful distribution mogul in Chicago—he is also the first man who ignites emotions inside of her other than fear.
Adam is a man used to getting what he wants. And he wants Katelyn—naked and often. Willing to stop at nothing to possess her, he relentlessly peruses Kate only to discover that it is she who possesses him—completely.
Kate quickly realizes that Adam has secrets of his own, secrets dark enough to break the walls she keeps so firmly in place.
Passion turns to possession, and Adam’s controlling nature and seductive hands sparks a desire so strong, it destroys her own demons. But when desire turns to addiction, Kate fears that it will rage too hot, and shatter her sanity.

Heartbroken and desperate to start fresh, Megan takes a job as a night manager at a swanky hotel in New York City. But when a wealthy VIP guest checks in, expecting more than a simple turn-down service, Megan has to decide between doing what’s right or finding out just how right something so wrong can feel.

With his sheets still warm from a wild night with the sweet but incredibly sexy Megan, Preston decided marriage wouldn’t be so bad. Not if done right. So he offers Megan five-million dollars for three years of marriage—and three years of sharing his bed. But when their faux-engagement turns real, Megan’s past comes back to haunt them and it might just destroy any chance they had at a real future.

And as both of their pasts threaten to take them under, she’ll have to choose between protecting her life and protecting her heart.
