unapologetically so. With a smart mouth, a quick wit, and a bad habit of reckless behavior, he&’s still managed to rise to the top of an underworld that eats most men alive. As the highest-grossing drug dealer on Denver&’s south side, he&’s attracted the attention of the Denver Narcotics unit. When he realizes he&’s being tailed by a member of the DPD, instead of lying low till the heat dies down, he does what he always does: the exact opposite of what he should. Ryan Quinn is a newly minted member of the Denver Police Department&’s drug unit. Twelve years ago he lost his brother to drugs, and secretly riddled with guilt, he&’s fought obsessively to eradicate them ever since. He&’s puzzled when, after months of tailing low-level dope dealers, he&’s assigned to be the lead targeting the biggest drug ring in town. However unlikely, when the cop and the drug dealer meet, sparks fly, triggering a chain of events that forges an unlikely partnership that both men should, but neither man can resist. Unfortunately, there is no such thing as coincidence in this high-stakes game of cat and mouse, and when Ryan uncovers the real reason he&’s been assigned to Eden&’s case, a decade-old secret threatens their fragile relationship… and their lives. This is a dark romance and contains themes of addiction, self-destructive behavior, sexual abuse, drug abuse, and dubious consent.With or Without You

of her beloved Regency-set novels featuring the charming, powerful Bridgerton family, now a series created by Shondaland for Netflix. In the ballrooms and drawing rooms of Regency London, rules abound. From their earliest days, children of aristocrats learn how to address an earl and curtsey before a prince—while other dictates of the ton are unspoken yet universally understood. A proper duke should be imperious and aloof. A young, marriageable lady should be amiable…but not too amiable.Daphne Bridgerton has always failed at the latter. The fourth of eight siblings in her close-knit family, she has formed friendships with the most eligible young men in London. Everyone likes Daphne for her kindness and wit. But no one truly desires her. She is simply too deuced honest for that, too unwilling to play the romantic games that captivate gentlemen.Amiability is not a characteristic shared by Simon Basset, Duke of Hastings. Recently returned to England from abroad, he intends to shun both marriage and society—just as his callous father shunned Simon throughout his painful childhood. Yet an encounter with his best friend’s sister offers another option. If Daphne agrees to a fake courtship, Simon can deter the mamas who parade their daughters before him. Daphne, meanwhile, will see her prospects and her reputation soar.The plan works like a charm—at first. But amid the glittering, gossipy, cut-throat world of London’s elite, there is only one certainty: love ignores every rule...This novel includes the 2nd epilogue, a peek at the story after the story.Archie Double Digest #345 (Archie Double Digest #345)
