Dangerous HeartsRomance · Riley Edwards
I was the daughter of Satan.
The sister of Zeus.
An unwitting outlaw motorcycle club princess that was my legacy—the past I knew I’d never outrun. I just didn’t know that would mean literally. Now I had two choices: risk my father finding me and selling me to pay off a debt, or marry a deliciously hot stranger who hated me.
Fake marriage it was.
Now I just had to safeguard my heart and not fall for my fake husband. That should’ve been easy. Davis Wright despised my brother and he was a judgmental jerk.
Unfortunately, I’d misunderstood his intentions.
Jane Morgan was the sister of a man I despised.
An outlaw MC president I was going to help put down.
So why did I offer to marry her to keep her safe? Why was I drawn to her vulnerability, her extraordinary eyes, her grit and determination to survive?
My fake wife was more than I’d bargained for. I was falling hard and fast and wanted to take the fake out of our marriage. Just when I’d convinced her we had a chance at the real thing, I lost her.
Someone has my wife. And when I find them, there will be hell to pay.

Smith (Silver Team Book 3)Romance · Riley Edwards
She’s the last woman in the world he’s allowed to fall for. And the only woman he wants.
There I was minding my own business, building my real estate empire, and loving life. So the last thing I needed was a series of threatening letters as I worked on my latest fix and flip sending my loving, protective dad into over-the-top-protective dad mode from the other side of the world. I’m not worried—as an internet influencer, I get a lot of strange comments that don’t mean anything. But theres no stopping my dad from calling in a favor from an old friend—Zane Lewis. Enter Smith Everette. Now I’ve got the hottest man I’ve ever seen for a bodyguard. I don’t have time for a relationship, but a little fun never hurt anyone. Until I realized that Smith is more than a good time. I’m ready to fight like hell to make him see that we have a future together. Too bad the stubborn former SEAL has the control of well…a Navy SEAL.
Easy job—easy day or so I thought.
My latest assignment should’ve been hassle free. Get to the bottom of who was sending cryptic letters to the daughter of a man my boss had served with in the Navy, a man he thinks of as his brother. Zane has two rules for this job. Number one, don’t let anything happen to Aria Taylor. And number two, don’t fall in love with her. Not a problem—love and relationships are not on my radar. My guilt wouldn’t let me. I’d tried that once and failed—spectacularly. But as soon as Aria opened the door, I realized there would be nothing easy about staying away from her. Aria was as beautiful as she was talented. Five minutes later when the sexy, flirty banter started I knew I was screwed. I might not fall in love but not giving in to my attraction would take more control than I had. The unfortunate part—Aria let me know right away she not only liked what she saw but she wasn’t interested in long-term.
But someone’s watching her, following her, threatening her. Following Zane’s first rule wasn’t a problem. I could and would keep her safe.
However, I was dangerously close to violating rule number two. Our no-strings-attached good time had turned into something more. Aria had torn down the walls I’d spent years building leaving me raw and exposed. Powerless to the promise of a future I never thought existed.
Then the threats against her take a dark turn no one expected. I’d failed again. Even if I can never have Aria, I’ll give everything I have to save her.
Warning: Smith is a spicy romantic suspense with a foul-mouthed hero who has trauma-fueled commitment issues who butts up against a witty, equally foul-mouthed heroine who knows what she wants and is willing to fight to get it.

Easton (Silver Team Book 2)Romance · Riley Edwards
My father was a complicated man.
The world knew him as a criminal who consorted with other, worse criminals. To me, he was my savior—the man whod rescued a scared, orphaned little girl. Hed taken me in when I had no one. Duty bound, I became the woman he wanted me to be.
Powerful. Respected. Resourceful.
The Mediator. The Dove.
Strictly speaking I was criminal, too, only I didn't consort, I commanded a team of assassins—though I preferred to call them mercenariesIt sounded less nefarious, less criminal, and more palatable. Two words that meant the same thing Men who at my call would do my bidding. I lived in the grey, in the shadows. I kept the darkness at bay, acting on behalf of the good people of the world who didn't deserve anarchy to spill out from the underbelly of society. I was on the right side of evil.
Or so I thought.
The mentor I trusted, a man who alongside my father taught me the skills I needed to survive, turned out to be nothing more than a greedy traitor.
With no choice I continued to play their game. Only, I changed the rules.
Unfortunately, that led me straight to the one person I'd done everything in my power to avoid—Zane “Viper” Lewis. I knew his secret. The one thread of the intricate web he'd flawlessly woven that could ruin everything he'd built. I was prepared to keep his secret in exchange for help.
But as with all things Viper, nothing was simple. He had other plans and my life went spiraling out of control.
Life-altering lies and deceit.
The kind that tore your soul apart and killed your spirit.
With nothing left, once again I changed the rules.
I was the mediator. The fixer. The student who had learned really freaking well how to play the game. And it was damn time they all learned—with their last breaths—just who they made me into.
The fatal flaw: Easton Spears. The man I never should've let in. But I needed to know what it felt like to be loved. Just once, I wanted to know what it was like having someone see me, the real me, not the Mediator or Dove, but Nebraska Michaels. I wanted it so desperately I gave him what he asked for—my heart. And in return, he showed me a world I didn't know existed.
To execute my mission, I'd have to turn my back on the first person who'd ever truly loved me. I'd have to give up the man I'd fallen in love with.
I had a plan for that, too.
But just like everything else, that went FUBAR.

Playing With Danger (Hollow Point Book 2)Romance · Riley Edwards

How a single moment can offer much-needed clarity.
How a kiss can alter the course of your life.
Valentine Malone fell into my life…correction, I fell into his in the aisle of a grocery store. I fell, not in love, but literally into him right before I stumbled into a display rack of parmesan cheese.

From the moment she backed into me at the grocery store, I couldn't get Sophie out of my mind. Beautiful, funny, sweet. And it turns out, brave in the face of sudden danger. She's everything I ever wanted, and a woman I'll never deserve. If she knew my secret, sweet Sophie would run and never look back.
But even if I can't keep her, I'll do anything to protect her from her own family's decades-old secrets and an unknown past that leaves her at the mercy of a mysterious enemy. It'll take everything I know about being on a SWAT team to save her. But will she still want me when my secrets come to light?
