The Way With You (The Way #2) by Anne Mercier
When Bash and I went to Brooklyn for the first time, I mentioned wanting a tattoo. Bash took me and I got a tattoo of four angels looking down through the clouds, the sun beams glowing bright. It is, of course, much bigger than I thought it would be, but I wouldn't change it for the world.
"Well, once they got over the initial shock, they really looked at it and my mom started crying. My dad smiled and told me I did good," I say softly. "It was good."
"See, love, you didn't have to hide it."
I shrug. "Let's go eat. I hate my mom's pout."
Bash chuckles.
We walk hand-in-hand over the sand to the grassy backyard. I look up in the sky as a cloud passes over the sun, hoping it's not going to storm. It's just a single cloud but the wind begins to break it up. It splits into four smaller clouds and the sun shines through the middle of them.
You guys. I shake my head. I swear I hear the words be happy float in the wind, Bash stiffens beside me.
"Did you say something?" he asks.
I shake my head and smile. "Look up."
"Four clouds…" he whispers.
"Yeah. No one's ever heard them before. Just me. They're always looking out for me."
Bash smiles. "I'm glad." He looks up. "Thank you."
It's been a little over a year and so much has happened, but I made it. Danny, Phillip, Simon, and Cassidy helped me a lot, and so did Sebastian and Alexa—past and present—and I realized it doesn't have to be one or the other. I can have them both. I can have it all.
"Wait until they make their presence known to Lex," I say to Bash.
He throws his head back and laughs. "I really, really hope they let me be there for that."
I grin. "They wouldn't have it any other way."

Russian Roulette features the complete collection of the Russkaya Mafiya series
including Secrets, Corrupted, and Unwanted Sacrifices with the bonus short story
Corrupted Counterparts.
Secrets-
Emily
I have a secret.
I need a savior; someone who can help me be free.
I never expected to meet the strong, stubborn Russian- Tate Masterson.
After my past, I should avoid him, not crave him.
Corrupted-
Viktor
I’m the dirty side of Mafiya.
One thing about being the leader of the Bratva, I always get what I want, her included.
I’m corrupted; don’t expect me to play fair.
Unwanted Sacrifices-
Sabrina
I never imagined I’d be grateful to be traded to the Bratva.
To be awarded a new beginning, once I’m given to Nikoli.
I’m already in love with him, but can he look past our friendship and return my love?
Corrupted Counterparts-
Spartak
One hot encounter with a feisty Italian, leaves this quiet Russian panting for more.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
When I find out the hard-bodied, tattooed god from the gym lives down the hall from me you’d think I’d be thrilled, right?
Um, how about not.
Heath Noble, construction project manager, MMA fighter and resident hottie, seemed charming at first. But after introducing myself, it was all goodbye Mr. Nice Guy, hello Sir Jerkface.
I don’t know what his problem is but guys who look like him are usually jackholes anyway, so I’m out.
Except he won’t let me be out.
Now I'm sure he's hitting on me and I'm as confused as ever.
But I know people and I'm not fooled.
I've got to find out what his game is before the line between my suspicion and my attraction to him becomes blurred and I do something stupid like fall for him.
Because I’ve done stupid before and I’ve only ended up getting hurt.
~~
The minute I find out who Laney Kyle is I want her to pay for what the Kyles have put my family through.
I'm only here to get my brother out from under the Kyle's hold by fighting in an underground ring run by her family. And if I can take all the Kyles down while I'm at it, well, so much the better.
But I have to be smooth. And believe me, I’m all about being smooth.
Or so I thought.
She’s got me so tangled up I’m not sure what I’m doing anymore.
And by the time I realize she’s an innocent bystander, I know I’ve lost her.
Now I’m going to get her back.
But she’s not giving me the chance.
Two people plus one apartment building equals one big messy situation.
And love, as usual, will just make everything messier.
Welcome to the High Rise where tenants get a new lease on love...

Paige
Turns out he was everything I ever wanted—charming, loving, and super sexy. But I knew being with Levi, the gorgeous MMA fighter every woman wanted, was going to be difficult. Especially since he’s so far away training a beautiful up-and-coming female fighter, teaching the very thing he thrives on. I just didn’t realize how damaging and strenuous this would be to our relationship. With so many twists and turns, unfortunately, we both got blindsided by the unexpected.
Levi
I’m everything she wants and surprisingly, she was everything I needed. Quickly she became my very existence—my heartbeat. Everything around me faded as she became clear in view. And just because I’m affectionate toward her doesn’t mean I’ve changed. Don’t confuse my being in love with weakness. I’m still pretty damn perfect. I knew distance was going to be hard, but hell, this is agonizing.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Have you ever had a secret that weighed on you so heavily you felt as though you might crumble from the burden of it?
I’ve been lying to all of my loved ones for months now, lying right to their faces. I know at some point the truth will have to come out, but I’m dreading that day with every fiber of my being. I don’t want to hurt anyone, especially Jeff, my fiancé.
My past and present are at war, pushing and pulling me in two different directions and sooner or later I’m going to break. How do I choose between the two men I love?
Garrett, my ex, who disappeared from my life without a trace has now returned. He claims he still loves me and he wants me back.
Jeff, the man I’m engaged to marry built our relationship on lies, but he proves to me every single day how
Are the mistakes of the past too much for me to move on from or can I find a way to forgive one of them?
Maybe it’s time for me to start with a clean slate and just focus on me.
