Do you dare?
You might never see my name in lights or flashed across the stage, but my roots were southern, my eyes bright, and my sass a mix of feisty-sweet. I was ready to take on anything life had to throw at me... until it did.
I used to be a romantic, hopeful someday I’d fall in love with Mr. Right. After a slew of dating disasters, though, I'd convinced myself I was cursed.
Now, almost twenty-six, I found myself working at a tattoo shop, wondering if it was time to try again. If only the men in my life would get a clue.
Slade—the bossnemy—who liked to push my buttons.
Simon—the one who got away—who wasn’t even an option.
Thane—the perfect guy—who swooped in to rescue me.
It began so innocently, our inked confessions, a modern-day love story unfolding between us, but when the line between truth and lies blurred, how was I to know what was real?
It was hidden somewhere between all the riddled deceit. The question was, was I even brave enough to unravel it?
I'm Lennox James, and this is my story.
*This is a why choose novel, meaning the main female character doesn't have to choose between love interests. This is a contemporary romantic suspense novel with some dark elements. This is an adult romance and intended for readers 18+ due to language and content. This series will contain MM.
At night, I’m free.
Free from the restraints growing tighter each day.
Free from the pressures placed on me.
Free from the disappointment of never being enough.
At night I dance and the movement sets me free, and I become whomever I want under the bright lights. My disguises offered me safety, providing me escape from the real me—Rapunzel. It started as a way to survive, but the thrill of the dance and the power I weaved soon became my addiction.
My life in shambles, my pride’s the only thing keeping me alive, clothed, and moderately fed. Asking for help isn’t in my nature, but I soon find a safe haven and place to belong at The Tower. Three men offer me something I desperately needed and I find acceptance in their love.
When the safety I found in my disguises runs out, I have to face the man who’d made me hide in the first place. Will I be able to find a happily ever after or am I doomed to always be trapped in a prison of my own making?
The root of all sin is pride, but what if it’s the only thing that can save me?
This will be the fifth book in the Sinners Fairytale Retellings series. Each installment can be read on its own, and each retelling is intended for mature audiences. Please read the forward for more information. Every author contributing to this series guarantees a HEA.
Was the truth too costly?
My life had become full of scribbles and lies, the lines smudged too many times to know the truth.Small town girl, eyes full of hope, I never thought my life would come to this.
It had started out so simple, and then somewhere between first loves and now, it went majorly off course. All the lies caught up to them, and I no longer knew who I could trust.
Everything was muddled, and no one knew the full truth of what had happened the day when everything changed. We’d become too twisted in our pain to look beyond it, believing the lies we were told, or perhaps wanted to believe.
Our inked confessions began as a safe way to share our fears and hopes, but with this betrayal, everything was riddled with deceit, and I wasn’t sure if any of us would ever find our way back to one another.
And yet, their love was a permanent tattoo on my heart, three smudged lines I couldn’t erase, nor would I ever want to, no matter how deep the pain pierced.
But the music didn’t lie, and my heart was nowhere near a love song. He’d made sure of that. When all you had left was your gut feeling, was it enough?

In the end, there was nothing more dangerous than love.
“Atticus was all in, and well, I guess I was all in with the mafia.”If you’d asked me six months ago if this was what my life would look like, I would’ve politely told you that you were insane. But now, the mafia, or the men in it, had become my world, and I was learning to embrace the darkness I’d long ignored.
When an enemy rose from the grave and took people from my life, I realized I could no longer play it safe. Always being underestimated meant I was ready to show Dayton Mascro just what a therapist could do. He was about to learn why there was nothing more dangerous than love.
This was the fight of my life. I just had to believe in myself long enough to win.

You might think you know me, but you don't.
Motorcycles, burly men, and danger were all part of my childhood. Growing up in the Maverick’s—Mississippi’s biggest and toughest motorcycle club—was different than most of the girls at school, but I loved every minute of it. So much, that my goal was to join the ranks when I was of age.When I passed Maverick Culling Defense, my dad’s program to become a Maverick, I thought my life was finally beginning. Turned out, being a twenty-year-old virgin was the least of my worries.
When my life took a massive shift in a direction I never saw coming, I was left with a brokenness that consumed me. Could I turn this utter agony around into something beautiful? Or was I destined to always be that broken girl, afraid of her shadow?

Are you brave enough to discover what the open road has to offer you?
At one time, I thought my life was planned out. Then a stalker entered my life and tossed my world upside down. After everything settled, I thought I was ready to get back to normal, everyday life. But when a mysterious letter arrived, it felt like the answer I’d been waiting for.
My whole life, I’d spent in two places, never straying far from home. It was time for this baby bird to fly. Along with my three boyfriends, we found ourselves on a trip of a lifetime with new experiences to uncover. From conventions to famous monuments, and all the hotels in between, it turned into a trip I wouldn’t soon forget.
So when a bully arrived and tried to steal our happiness, I knew it was time to take a stand—even if that meant singing on a stage. My secret dreams were at my fingertips, and I just had to be brave enough to grab them.

I'm Lennox James, and this is my story.
The difference between a vow and a promise? Promises were broken.
Between the truth and lies, I’d found the dark confession I’d been too afraid to acknowledge. I was tired of hiding behind fear, the lies holding me back too much. It was time to drop the mask completely and embrace the reality that had been staring me in the face.Except now, I was the one with the secret.
Faced with an unimaginable dilemma, I had to face what was at stake—the family I was creating versus the woman I’d always been.
Maybe it was time to step out of my own shadow and into the woman I was meant to be?
Vowing to myself to fight for what I wanted, I wouldn’t let anything stand in my way this time—even myself.
But what if I wasn’t enough? Could I overcome the pressures or would I lose everything?

Lying to yourself was the most dangerous game of all.
I’d once thought the only thing that mattered was the truth. But perhaps I’d been naive.Learning to navigate life with my eyes open, I’d found things weren’t as they seemed. The good guy didn’t always get the girl, the right thing wasn’t always easy to spot, and the bad guy wasn’t always the villain. Life was more about perception than truth. Maybe… that was the biggest lie of all.
My mother and ex-husband hid behind their mansions and club memberships, making everyone believe they were better and had it all together. Deep down they were twisted and cruel, covering it up with pretty lies.
The mask I’d worn for so long no longer protected me, the facade cracking as I began to emerge into my own person. Heartache, deceit, and treachery kept knocking at my door, but they had no place here. I could see through their betrayals and I was no longer alone to carry the pain.
I used to think my biggest confession was having it all and losing it so epically, laying splattered on the floor in a million pieces. Yet, piece by piece, I was being put back together. Which led me to wonder if I’d ever been whole to begin with?
When your whole life was a lie, did you ever know the truth?

These shoes were made for more than just walking.
I didn’t belong.Not with the things I’d done. Not with my past.
To move forward, I needed to finish what I’d started all those years ago. I had to face him. My only barrier to the life I wanted was me, and it was time to face the sins of my youth instead of running.
Except now, I had to run.
My family wouldn’t understand and I knew this would hurt, but I was out of options. If I didn’t do this now, I’d always be wondering, waiting for him to strike. It was time for me to strike first.
At one time, he’d been my salvation, until he became my damnation. My sins were dark, my spirit broken, but I was no longer weak.
It was time I remembered who I’d been. It was time I returned to Oblivion. This time, my stilettos wouldn’t just be sinful. No, this time, they’d be deadly.
