I'm a beta. Is disguising myself as an omega to attend an omega-only finishing school a good idea? No. Definitely not. But my sister is an omega, and not everyone has someone willing to break them out of their gilded cage the way I would for Everleigh. My mission at Haven Academy pits me against three unexpected alpha foes, and I will not be the one backing down. There's a grumpy math professor who suspects I don't belong, a sexy fencing instructor with a cruel lash for a tongue, and a flirtatious gardener who wants to take me to Paris?

Trevor Hunt, duque de Ridgely, frequentemente é descrito como um homem sedutor, ardiloso e um completo canalha — a má fama, em grande parte, tem um fundo de verdade. Desprezado por sua família e detestado por muitos, ele forjou sua reputação nas sombrias ruas de Londres. Entretanto, combater inimigos mortais e maridos enfurecidos nunca o preparou para o desafio mais caótico de sua vida: tornar-se tutor de uma jovem dama inocente e enigmática.

Sparks fly when Valere, a swaggering braggert with delusions of artistic grandeur, becomes the Prince's choice to join Elomire's troupe.

Of all the names I’ve been called in Manhattan, “good guy” has never been one of them. But that’s what I have to become the day my father’s law firm, sexy lawyer Violet Keats, a salacious scandal, a hot new court case, and one unlucky bet fall into my lap. Being “the boss” has never been harder. Being office enemies with Violet Keats? Never hotter. But then one night - and one gamble - change everything. I guess earning that “good guy” title is going to be much harder than I thought....
