PAYTON
Greed – Defined by the dictionary as an excessive and insatiable desire for
more wealth, power, or possessions than one needs.
I’m not the type of girl who wants or needs all that.
The only thing I am greedy for is my freedom.
Freedom to live.
Freedom to be free.
But…
Darkness is my burden.
It clings to me daily, trying to drag me down into its cold clutches.
I do my best to fight its pull, but sometimes surrendering to its power is more
alluring than living in fear.
Pain = Love Bear or Man?
Being with another man scared me more than the darkness chasing me, but then I
met him…
He knocked down all my carefully constructed walls…
He unlocked all my dark fantasies I had kept hidden for so long, and he
savoured every single one, stoking the fire to a crescendo that living without
him now wasn’t an option.
Jag was my Dark Broken Angel…
The man who brought me back to life.
JAG
Payton came waltzing into my life with a broken smile that drew me in.
Had me craving things I had blocked out years ago.
In her mind, Love = Pain, and I was on a mission to prove her wrong at every
turn, even if that meant watching her from the shadows until she was ready for
me…
Us.
One sheltered look lured me in.
One kiss brought me back to life.
All her dark fantasies she locked away, afraid to set free, were now mine.
Payton is my imperfect, perfect sin…
S Courtney is a romance author whose motto is “Love
Worth Dying For” There’s always a little (lot) of bloodshed for the
happily ever after/for now. Her love of writing began in middle school after
hours writing until bedtime letting her imagination run wild.
With that imagination she has created her paranormal series,
the Bound Series with strong but caring Alphas and independent women with big
ambitions and a little magic! And a look inside the tough job of reaping souls
to the Underworld in Sandman.
She also tapped into the dark world of motorcycle clubs and
the secret life of an mercenary with a curiosity.
She looks forward to writing into other tropes, such as even
darker romance, mafia, and sweet almost insta-love.
Running is easier than facing my mistakes, than facing him.

Despite all my good intentions and a metric ton of dry shampoo, my life is
always one step away from falling apart. What’s a girl to do? Run. Hide.
Pretend like all my mistakes never happened.

Hell comes in designer suits and with an attitude. The Lords of Chaos MC and the Castiello Family are well aware of the threat that looms over them. They have to tread carefully because the Jade Dragon Triad isn’t to be taken lightly whatsoever.
Demir Balik always stands ready for action as one of the Castiello’s highly-trained assassins. Now that he’s also a member of the Lords, he’s ready to kill anyone who poses a threat to his lover, Wolf, especially the Jade Dragon Triad.
Montgomery William-Price is a man born into money and one of the hottest and most coveted Doms at the Scarlet Letter BDSM club. Unfortunately for him, he’s caught the eye of a young man whom he finds utterly annoying, Ren. If that weren’t enough for him to worry about, his father’s poor business decisions have put their company in financial ruin. On the brink of bankruptcy, he gets an offer that he can’t refuse… not if he wants to live.
Ajay Khanna didn’t plan on getting into a relationship while doing his time in prison. It was supposed to be simple. But, no matter how hard he tried to fight his feelings for the giant, burly, and utterly sexy biker, Tim Davis, he lost. And that would be perfectly fine if only Tim knew who he really was. Can their relationship survive the truth?
Ren Mujin is the youngest son of the Dragonhead of the Jade Dragon Triad, so it goes without saying, that he doesn’t know the meaning of the word “no”. And when he hears it several times from the one man who makes his dreams wet, he decides to take matters into his own hands. He plans to get the sexy Dom at all costs.
Da Han Mujin, Dragonhead of the Jade Dragon Triad, is a man who always gets what he wants. And he wants all of the Chicago territory. That and his gorgeous new bodyguard, Jun De, who is trying to keep their relationship professional. Well, that just won’t do for Da Han.
“The Road to Carnage Series” is an electrifying tale of crime and passion where loyalties and love will be tested. It will take you on an intense ride through the savage and sultry world of the Lords of Chaos. Not for the faint of heart as this series is wild AF.

Macbandit 4.0 out of 5 stars Great story and characters Reviewed in the United States on February 10, 2024 Nicholas Bella Betrayed There is so much to this story I’m not sure I know where to begin. Monty is trying to save his company that has been in the family for generations. His dad has caused it to have more financial problems than Monty can fix. The solutions are not anything Monty wants. Ren is the spoiled brat that isn’t happy even when he gets what he wants. Ajax (Milan) and TT play a big part in this story. Ajax’s life has major changes. Demir, while involved, seems to just be on the outside of major events…more yet to happen. Vitra and Da Han are major players but then again naturally since they are incharge characters they have to be involved. There are many more characters and side events going on so keeping track of all the characters and where they fit sometimes got challenging for me but they are all interconnected. I was enjoying the story and was to the point I was ignoring all around me when it stopped. It didn’t come to an end but rather got to an intense part and stopped. This caused me frustration. I really enjoyed the story. The characters can get a little overwhelming to keep track of at times but they all fit together. The pace of the story moved right along. Since this is an ongoing story I should have expected the stopping but I wish some of the characters would have been more resolved so I didn’t feel so unsettled. This series is really more episodes rather than each couple or event having a resolution while the overall group continues. Now I have to wait for the next episode.
N 5.0 out of 5 stars Caught Up in Chaos! Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2024 The publisher's description was accurate for this Road to Carnage continuation in that sultry, sexy, HOT men are caught up in intrigues and tangles reaching beyond surface appearance. There's a few Lords of Chaos (LOC) members in prison doing time and maintaining the LOC dominance in order to survive the dangerous environment of prison. The goings on at the prison are just the tip of the complex weave of relationships, obligations, and love interests Nicholas Bella writes in Book 6 of his Road to Carnage series. This is not a standalone book. However, if you're adventurous in the realm of erotic urban fantasy featuring hot men who are arrogantly sexy and demanding you'll want to start with Bella's first book, Outlawed. This series is never boring, never predictable in the usual MM romance genre, and is always interestingly enticingly arousing, dangerous, dark, and potentially violent. Book 6 sets the reader up for SO many possible conflicts, outcomes and oh my goodness what the heck is going to happen to the men Bella has made me care about!
If you’ve made it through to this one, just grit your teeth and hang in there. Nick has promised that he’s working on the next one, and I for one, am dying to know what happens next! Nick isn’t kidding when he warns us that this is a serial series.
The Reluctant Retiree
Having fallen way too deep in love with the Castiello’s assassin, Akari Himura, Fabian “Burger” Murphy has to figure out how to get his club to approve his relationship. However, he’s getting pushback from everyone, from his older brother, to his father, telling him that he needs to break up with Akari. Time is running out for him to make his decision. Will he choose the one man in his life he can’t live without? Or the club that has given his very existence meaning?
Nothing and no one is ever out of Makade-Ma’iingan “Wolf” Sanders’ league. The president of the Chicago chapter of the Lords of Chaos has set his sights high, and they have landed on the Right-Hand Man of the Castiello family’s underboss, Demir Balik. Despite all the warnings to stay away, Wolf can’t. He loves the chase, it’s in his blood. But he may have pursued the wrong type of prey this time. Demir is a force of nature and Wolf finds himself in quite the predicament.
Vito “The Vise” Castiello has a lot on his plate right now. The takeover of a major city’s crime business being his biggest priority. However, the minx at his side is changing him little by little, giving him happiness in a way he’d never thought he’d experience. However, things get rocky when his lover, Zindel Esai, plays a game he’s not willing to participate in. Vito is a passionate man and wants what he wants, and that’s to be in control. But can The Vise loosen up just a bit to let his minx love him?
Prison is a lonely place, especially having been behind those walls for nearly five years. It doesn’t help when Tim “Tiny Tim” Davis has to see his club brother and prospect share a love he envies on a daily basis. One day, he gets a new cellmate, someone so stunning, that he leaves Tiny Tim speechless. Immediately, he knows that he wants this man, and has to have him. Luckily for TT, this vulnerable inmate needs someone to protect him, and that’s the hook he uses to reel the new fish in.
