No Mercy by D.M. Davis
Series: Black Ops MMA #1
Publication date: August 13th, 2020
Cover Design: D.M. Davis

When it comes to protecting his angel, he has no mercy.

Gabriel:
The first time I saw her, she made my pulse dance to a rhythm that matched the sway of her hips.
The second time I saw her, she was in the arms of my best friend.
That broken, rusty organ in my chest hasn't beaten since.
Blood doesn't run through these veins, it's pure, unleaded determination.
I've fought my whole life. For safety. For Food. For my family.
Five years later, I'm fighting for my position in the MMA world.
No distractions.
Only, my angel needs me, and that tin can behind my ribs found its beat again.

Francesca:
Gabriel "No Mercy" Stone earned his fight-name long before he entered the octagon.
He's been a thorn in my side for years.
He takes pleasure in proving his nickname to me at every turn.
He's relentless. He's heartless.
Until one day he's not.
It took the worst day of my life for Gabriel to show me mercy.
Broken and afraid, I let him piece me back together.
He offers me everything yet promises nothing.

When a man shows he has no mercy, you should believe him.

D.M. Davis' No Mercy is an emotionally raw, enemies to lovers, sexy, contemporary romance written in K. Bromberg's Everyday Heroes Worlds project.

Excerpt
I don't know if you can love someone enough to make what is inherently bad good enough for someone who is inherently good. I think it's a leap too far to traverse. I may be named after Gabriel the avenging angel, but I am no saint. My mortal form is deficient. I was made for one thing and one thing only. To fight. It's what I know. It's what courses through my veins. It's what keeps my tin can in my chest silent.

I know how to survive.

I know how to fight.

I know how to fuck.

I don't know how to love an angel.

Excerpt
Dr. Penina Ross

A tall drink of water out onto the stoop.

My brow furrowed and released as my gaze locked in on him. The more I advanced, the harder it was to look away. I'd never seen the guy before. All tenants in the building worked at the hospital in some capacity, so I'd never seen the guy before. All tenants in the building worked at the hospital in some capacity, so I'd seen just about everyone before but never him. I was drawn to his strong posture the most. Truly confident men always turned me on. I watched as he shook a cigarette out of a package, put the stick in his mouth, and lit it.

Our eyes met. At first, his glance was fleeting, but then he did a double take. I was breathless as his eyes roamed my face. My cheeks felt hot, and I nervously shifted my bag from one shoulder to the other. Why is he watching me that way? I waited for his gaze to release me, but the closer I got, the tighter it held me. I couldn't look away from him either.

As I closed the gap between us, his looks took my breath away. He was unusually handsome. I wasn't well versed in male celebrities since I barely had time to watch TV and couldn't remember the last time I'd seen a movie, but I was certain that if he were an actor, his pale-blue eyes and sharp features would've made him a sex symbol.

Then I finished walking up the three steps that led to the entrance.

"Hi," I said past my tight throat.

My nervousness made my fingers jerky as I punched in my code. The guy still hadn't responded, although he had finally taken his eyes off me. He took another draw on his cigarette then smashed it out on a nearby planter.

The lock buzzed. He still hadn't replied to my greeting, and I wish I could take it back.

"What an ass," I muttered as I opened the door, determined to avoid the opposite sex forever or perhaps at least until men became better at being nicer and not picking my friends to fuck.

"Hello," he said faintly just before I closed the door behind me.

Sweet Possession by Lucy Smoke & A.J. Macey
Publication date: April 30th, 2020

Synopsis (according to Goodreads):
I had a chance, once, to play the good girl. I could've kept my mouth shut and stayed out of the line of fire. Had I done that, more people might've been hurt. So, I came forward and subsequently, I lost everything I'd ever loved.

I lost my family. 
I lost my home.
I lost my identity.
I lost... them.

But now they're back. At least, I think they are. I can feel their eyes watching my every movement, stalking me. They aren't here to threaten me or to hurt me. They're here to protect me. To watch over me. Because to them, I'm everything they desire.

I am their love.
I am their hate.
I am their infatuation.
Their sweet possession.

How long can they stand to stay in the shadows when a new danger threatens to tear us apart again?

Excerpt
"You belong to us," he stated simply. "You're ours, and until such a time as that changes--which will be fucking never if I have anything to say about it--your whereabouts are my business."

Cue fucking eyeroll. "Wow, caveman much?" I asked.

His eyes slid to me and before I knew it, he was cutting the SUV down a short back road and pulling up short, slapping the vehicle into park. "You want me to prove it to you?" he demanded.

Staring at him, wide-eyed, I gaped. "W-what?"

"I can prove that I own your luscious ass, Mare, right now." He held out his hand. "Hand over your panties."

Shock rolled through me. "What? No, I'm not going to do that." I glanced around the street, but thankfully it seemed deserted. Still, this wasn't exactly private. "Not here."

"Oh yes, you are," he replied, keeping that hand up, palm out. "Give me your underwear and if I find them as dry as the Sahara, then I'll retract my claim of ownership."

I frowned. There was no fucking way they'd be dry. My panties were soaked. Had been since the moment he'd shown up at the library, hovering over Ben like an angry warrior protecting its territory. Maybe it was weird that I found his possessiveness such a turn on, but who the fuck cared? I looked away from his expectant gaze.

"I can't give you my panties here," I said, my voice lowering. "Someone could walk by."

He shook his head. "You don't need to concern yourself with that," he said. "You let me worry about whether or not we'll get caught. you think I don't know where to get you alone?" He dropped his hand and unclipped his seatbelt to lean across the console. "I know every nook and fucking cranny of this city, Mare. I know where I need to get you alone," he said, his breath hot on my cheek. My thighs clenched automatically while his lips turned up at the corners. He fucking knew what he was doing to me. "We've been watching you for a long time, my little brat." He reached down and unclipped my seatbelt. "Now, hand over your fucking panties and let me see if my little girl's pussy is as wet as I think it is."

I fucking pulsed. Staring into his commanding gaze, my heart thundered in my chest. My fingers shook as I dipped them to the top of my pants. Closing my eyes for a brief respite from his eyes, I inhaled a breath. Shoving my pants down, I struggled to get out of my shoes and slipped them over my hips until I was clad in nothing more than my t-shirt, jacket, and the panties Ian was so interested in.

"I'm waiting, Mare." There it was. That reminder of what he expected.

Biting my lip, I shoved the thin pair of satiny briefs down my legs, ripping them off and balling them up in my fist as I pressed my thighs closer together. I debated throwing them at him, and as if he could sense my intention, the bastard shook his head and grinned. "In my hand, sweetheart," he directed. "Place them in the center of my palm."

I reached forward, my whole body shivering in anticipation. I held my hand with the crumpled panties in my fist over his and with each finger that released the fabric, my heart rate kicked up another notch. Finally, they were dropped in his hand and I sat back, watching with wide eyes as he lifted them to his nose and inhaled deeply, his eyes closing as if he were taking in the most exquisite aroma. When they reopened and centered on me, he smiled. "Oh, baby," he said, "you really are mine, aren't you?" Leaning forward he tucked the panties into his back pocket. "You can put your pants and shoes back on, Mare. We've got to get you home."

"W-what?" I stared at him. He couldn't be fucking serious.

He chuckled low. "You've got work early in the morning, sweetheart. Consider this your punishment for not giving them to me when I asked. Maybe next time you'll be the good girl I know you can be and do what I say the first time I say it."
