Book Description
In the ranks of NCAA college basketball, Duke University is like something scraped off the bottom of a shoe. It's like a nasty virus you catch from a door handle at a public toilet. No team in sports is as uniquely hated as those smug, entitled, floor-slapping, fist-pumping, insufferable Blue Devils. The loathing has almost reached the level of a religion. Christian Laettner is a punk. Amen. The Cameron Crazies are obnoxious. The Plumlees are worthless times three. Coach K is a jerk. Kumbaya. The team is dogged by an intense hatred that no other team can match—and for good reason. Millions of hoops fans and March Madness aficionados around the world are not imagining things. Duke really is evil, and within the pages of Duke Sucks, Reed Tucker and Andy Bagwell show readers exactly why Duke deserves to be so detested. They bruise and batter the Blue Devils with fact after fact, story after story, statistic after statistic. They build an airtight case that could stand up in a court of law. So sit back in your "I Hate Duke" t-shirt, and in true Duke fashion, force someone poorer than you to do your work as you crack open the ultimate guide to Duke suckitude.

Book Description
Are you ready to meet the hot alpha bikers of the South Carolina Savage Kings MC? Roman Roman McNamara is not only the president of the Savage Kings of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina but he's also the king of one-night stands. There's just one woman Roman can't get off his mind no matter how hard he tries... When tragedy strikes during a bachelorette weekend, Roman and Charlotte's paths cross in the most unexpected way. Charlotte has no idea that Roman served in the Marines with her husband, or that he's been keeping an eye on her for years, all while continuing to keep her husband's secrets. Winston Winston Prescott has been a grumpy SOB for the past ten years. None of his brothers in the Savage Kings MC knew why, not until the day one of them made the mistake of posting a sexy centerfold on the wall of the clubhouse. The gorgeous model posing topless on sports cars and motorcycles isn't just any girl. Her name is Zoe Donahue, and she also happens to be Winston's stepsister. While the two haven't spoken in years, Winston will do anything it takes to earn Zoe's forgiveness. And this time around, he isn't going to let her leave without putting up a fight. Verek Verek Rhodes is playboy royalty in South Carolina. As a member of the Savage Kings MC and the manager of a nightclub, women were easy come, easy go in his life, until he met Tessa. Tessa Singleton was getting ready to marry the man of her dreams before her entire world came crashing down. Eventually, she'll have to face her past and make a decision about who she wants to be with. Will she choose the man she once loved or the biker who saved her from her nightmares? Conrad Conrad Erikson thought that doing the police chief a favor would be an easy assignment, one that could ultimately benefit the Savage Kings MC in the future. All he has to do is pick up the chief's daughter from college and bring her home. What could possibly go wrong? When it comes to the chief's daughter Hannah, the answer is anything and everything. Cannon When the livelihood of the Savage Kings MC is threatened, Cannon Erikson steps up. Madison Monroe has never had anyone to rely on except for herself. She worked her ass off chasing her dreams, earning a law degree, interning with political campaigns, and now, finally, going after her ultimate goal - making her own run for public office. Unfortunately, not everyone in this world has the same moral compass as Madison. She's never dealt with a dirty opponent, one who will cross every ethical line just to hurt her and undermine her campaign. When the former chief of police comes after Madison with all the resources and connections he still has in the city, Madison will have no choice but to turn to an unforeseen ally - Cannon and the Savage Kings MC. Nolan Nolan is a convicted felon, searching for his place in the world without screwing up his probation. The last thing he needs is a giant oaf from a rival biker gang showing up at the MC's clubhouse, threatening to kill Nolan if he doesn't give his estranged wife, Rita, a divorce. The funny thing is, Nolan is certain that he has never been married. The name Rita does, unfortunately, ring a bell - she's the reason he went to prison. WARNING: THIS BOX SET IS NOT SUITABLE FOR ANYONE UNDER 18. IT CONTAINS SEXUALLY AND PHYSICALLY VIOLENT SCENES THAT MAY BE A TRIGGER FOR SOME INDIVIDUALS.

Malcolm
Author: Lane Hart
Publisher: Editor's Choice Publishing
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 231
Book Description
While Malcolm Hyde may look like your very own personal Jesus, he’s anything but a saint. Covered in tattoos and leather, he’s a smoking hot biker and nothing but trouble. As the president of the Dirty Aces MC, Malcolm is known for being cold and calculating. One bad decision – getting into business with the wrong person – is all it takes to bring down the entire MC. It’s happened before to his predecessor, which is why Malcolm refuses to let it happen again on his watch. He doesn’t trust anyone except for the few men who wear the same ace of spades patch on their back. And that’s exactly why he doesn’t ever take his eyes off of me – the new girl. I never intended to make an enemy out of Malcolm or the MC when I was sent to steal everything I could from them. After Malcolm finds out what I’ve been doing, he’s furious and shows no mercy until I spill all of my secrets, ones that could very well end my life. That’s when he makes me a surprising offer – he’s willing to take care of all of my problems, and the only thing he’s asking for in return is for me to completely surrender myself to him. Spending two weeks in bed with a bad boy biker sounds more like a reward than a punishment. There’s just one little catch – once he claims my body, there’s no guarantee he won’t steal my heart too.
