Book Description
Away games, back seats, and the locker room after hours...New York Times bestselling author Penelope Douglas is back with this spicy new adult romance, now with bonus material. Marymount girls are good girls. Even if they weren't, no one would know, because girls like Clay Collins keep their mouths shut. Not that Clay has anything to share, anyway. Always in control, she owns the hallways, walking tall on Monday and then dropping to her knees like the good Catholic girl she is on Sunday. What she wants she has to hide. Liv Jaeger crosses the tracks every day for one reason: to graduate from high school and get into the Ivy League. But Clay—with her beautiful skin, clean shoes, and rich parents—torments her daily and thinks Liv won't fight back. At least not until Liv gets Clay alone and finds out she's hiding so much more than just what's underneath those pretty clothes. Liv told Clay to stay on her side of town. But one night, Clay doesn't listen. And once Liv is done with her, she'll never be a good girl again.

"Former tennis player Easton Bradbury is trying to be the best teacher she can be, trying to reach her bored students, trying to forget her past ... Now one parent-teacher meeting may be her undoing. Meeting Tyler Marek for the first time makes it easy for Easton to see why his son is having trouble in school. The man knows how to manage businesses and wealth, not a living, breathing teenage boy. Or a young teacher, for that matter, though he tries to. And yet there is something about him that draws Easton in a hint of vulnerability, a flash of attraction, a spark that might burn"--

Dreams might be a heart’s desire, but nightmares are its obsession in the first novel of a dark romance series from New York Times bestselling author Penelope Douglas. Erika Fane’s boyfriend's older brother is handsome, strong, and completely terrifying. The star of his college's basketball team gone pro, he's more concerned with the dirt on his shoe than he is with her. But she saw him. She heard him. The things that he did, and the deeds that he hid... For years, Erika bit her nails, unable to look away. Now, she’s in college, but she hasn’t stopped watching him. He’s bad and the things she’s seen aren’t content to stay in her head anymore. Because he's finally noticed her. But Michael Crist knows the hold he has on Rika, how much she fears him. She looks down when he enters the room and stills when he’s close. He knows she thinks only of him. When Michael’s brother leaves for the military, leaving Rika alone and unprotected, he knows the opportunity is too good to be true. Three years ago she put Michael’s friends in prison, and now they’re free. Every last one of her nightmares is about to come true.

Book Description
Jogos fora de casa, assento dos fundos e vestiário depois da hora... Prepare-se! CLAY As meninas do Marymount são boazinhas. Somos castas, intocadas, e mesmo se não fosse o caso, ninguém saberia, porque mantemos a boca fechada. Não que eu tenha algo a contar. Nunca deixei os caras irem longe demais. Sou bem-comportada. Linda, inteligente, talentosa, popular, minhas saias estão sempre passadas, e eu nunca estou com um fio do cabelo fora do lugar. Eu domino os corredores, entro toda confiante às segundas-feiras e fico de joelhos aos domingos como a boa menina católica que sou. Essa sou eu. Sempre no controle. Ou assim eles pensam. A verdade é que é fácil para mim resistir a eles, porque o que eu quero de verdade, eles jamais poderão ser. Algo mais macio e suave. Alguém perigoso e desgovernado. Infelizmente, preciso esconder o que eu quero. No vestiário depois da hora. No banheiro durante o intervalo das aulas. No chuveiro depois do treino. Minha cabeça viaja. Minha mão por debaixo da saia dela. Para mim, a vida é uma teia de segredos. Ninguém pode descobrir os meus. OLIVIA Atravesso os trilhos todos os dias por uma razão: para me formar nesta escola e entrar em uma universidade de renome. Não tenho vergonha das minhas origens, da minha família nem por todo mundo no Marymount achar as minhas saias curtas demais e o meu batom, muito vermelho. Clay Collins e as amigas sempre torceram o nariz para mim. A bruxa com a pele linda, sapatos limpos e pais ricos que me atormenta todos os dias e pensa que eu não vou revidar. Pelo menos não até pegar a garota sozinha e descobrir que ela esconde muito mais do que apenas o que fica por baixo daquelas roupas bonitas. A princesa pensa que eu vou fazer a comichão dela passar. Acha que ainda é pura desde que não seja um garoto a tocando. Eu disse para ela ficar do seu lado da cidade. Eu disse para ela não atravessar os trilhos. Mas, certa noite, ela atravessou. E quando eu acabar com ela, a garota nunca mais será pura novamente. * Tryst Six Venon é um livro único, um romance entre garotas com situações de bullying que foi escrito para maiores de dezoito anos.

One woman learns the secrets of the five Jaeger brothers in the new romance from New York Times bestselling author Penelope Douglas. On the other side of town, in the dark glades, under the rain… Macon is the oldest. Thirty-one. Ex-Marine. I don’t think I’ve ever seen him smile. Army is twenty-eight. A single dad with the most beautiful green eyes. He has no idea who he is, if not a Jaeger brother. Iron will be in prison soon. You’d never think it to meet him. He’s a nice guy, actually. But he can’t stop reacting to everything. Dallas is the one I hate. Twenty-one, cruel, and selfish. He takes and then throws away whatever’s left. And Trace is mine. Or he was for about two seconds. No one can tame him for long. Not that I ever wanted to. It was fun, but now I need to go home. Back to my side of the tracks. Away from the swamps and these men. To my parents’ big house. On my clean street. Where I’m never dirty or messy or hot. And I will. I’ll leave first thing tomorrow morning. I just want to crash on the couch tonight. Their house is dark and quiet, everyone else is asleep. Except for one. He sees me crying and comes at me from behind. I let him wrap his arms around my body and hold me tightly. His breath is on my neck, his fingers are in my hair, and he doesn’t stop there. I don’t think it was Trace.

I hate that I can't let her go. We used to be friends, but I found out that I couldn't trust her—or anyone else. So I hurt her. I pushed her away. But I still need her. She centers me. Engaging her, challenging her, pushing her—it’s the one last part of me that feels anything anymore. But then she went and screwed everything up. She left for a year and came back a different girl. Now, when I push, she pushes back...and I’m not sure either one of us will ever be the same.
