As the CEO of Stone Enterprise, I wasn't used to hearing the word "no." The way I conducted business wasn't always legal, but that's the thing about owning everything I touched: no one could tell me I was wrong. Owing me was the worst thing you could ever do. When I collected on a debt, I only accepted two payment options: your life or something I deemed valuable. When I laid eyes on Fable Walters, I knew she would be the perfect payment for a debt she hadn't accrued. She was beautiful, intelligent, a hustler, and more importantly, she didn't fear me.

Dylan Davenport has always been the responsible one, but he's bitten off more than he can chew. Looking out for his sisters. Running the family ranch. Managing his restaurant as head chef. And raising his six-year-old daughter on his own. Poppy Golightly was eighteen years old when she left Aster Springs to get over her crush on her best friend's brother. Now she's back with a broken heart, an empty bank account, and an eternal optimism that her true love is out there somewhere.

The search for Mr. Right is over… Until my new "boyfriend" walks into a bar and my best friend gets fate-induced heart-eyes at first sniff.

I can't remember anything except my name, and we're stuck in the middle of nowhere with no cell signal or internet, but I feel… safe.

But this decision forces her into a new deception: play the role of expert jam maker, or else be cast out onto the streets.

Destroy the Guild. Take Danny home. Live our life. That had been my goal. Now? I want her back. I want the Guild out of her life. I’ll sell my soul and work with my enemy if I have to. Whatever it takes.

My new stepbrother is insufferable. You'd think it wouldn't matter since I won't be here for long, but this guy gets under my skin like no one ever has. All-American, baby-faced, blue-eyed band dork and star soccer player. Everything about him is the picture of perfection—unlike me. I don't think Do Gooder knows I'm starting senior year late.

What I don't like is the new flight attendant on our team's private plane. She works for me, not the other way around.

And when she seeks refuge in a deep cave, she just wants a moment alone to draw, to escape… Until the cave collapses and traps her inside. With an orc.

Being in the Guild is our life…or death. Not everyone is created equal, and not everyone is truly cut out for the work we do. It’s not pretty, it’s not glamorous, and it’s sure as shit not moral or good. The weight of the sins we carry can become too much for some, and they crack. When they do, they become a threat. No one quits the Guild. Not really. Either they cut a deal to make themselves useful in another capacity, or they get eliminated. But who, you might ask, can kill a killer? Who scares the boogeyman into running and hiding? Men like me.

Just when you think it can’t get any worse, the universe seems to take that as a personal challenge. The Devil’s Backbone Society has their fingers everywhere. It’s more than a secret society―it’s a leash and a prison sentence. The elders insist it’s about making connections that will help you for the rest of your life, but what they don’t tell you is how long―or, in this case, short―your life might be.

All I’ve ever known is the Guild. They clothed me, fed me, raised me. They trained me. And in return I became their perfect weapon, their loyal soldier, their deadly asset.

I’ve watched countless colleagues fail in their missions and pay the ultimate price. I’ve watched peers lose their minds with the weight of the work we do, and pay with their lives to keep our secrets. I never thought I would become one of them.
