Stacey O'brien Novels & Stories

Dmitri Volkov is the heir to one of New York’s most ruthless Russian mafia families—cold, controlled, and carrying scars no one is allowed to see. He has spent his life obeying blood oaths and burying every part of himself that doesn’t serve the syndicate. Love, especially love for a man, is a weakness he cannot afford. Ethan Moreau is a twenty-two-year-old French art student on scholarship at NYU—soft-spoken, openly gay, and painfully trusting. He came to New York to chase beauty in a city full of sharp edges, never expecting one of those edges to look back at him with ice-blue eyes. Their worlds collide by chance in Central Park. A fleeting encounter becomes stolen nights, desperate kisses in shadowed alleys, and whispered promises neither of them can keep. For Ethan, Dmitri is intensity and danger wrapped in tenderness he’s never known. For Dmitri, Ethan is the first crack of light in a life built on darkness—and the one thing that could destroy everything he’s been raised to protect. But secrets have weight. Dmitri’s family is closing in, a rival syndicate is circling, and every touch between them pulls the noose tighter. Misunderstandings fester into silence, jealousy into rage, and love into something that hurts to hold. When blood finally stains the canvas of their fragile world, Ethan will have to decide if he can love a man who was born to break hearts—and Dmitri will have to choose between the family that raised him and the only person who ever made him want to be free. In a city that devours the innocent, their story is a slow bleed of devotion, betrayal, and the kind of love that can ruin you completely.

He signed the divorce papers while she slept. Left with a check for five thousand dollars and a note calling their three-year marriage a mistake, Damien Voss walked away without looking back—straight into the arms of the woman his family actually approved of. What he didn't know was that Selene was pregnant. Five years later, Selene has rebuilt herself from nothing into the silent force behind the company systematically destroying Damien's empire. She didn't come back for closure, and she certainly didn't come back to beg. She came to make him feel, in every boardroom and every headline, exactly what it means to underestimate her. But revenge is a dangerous game when the man you're dismantling still looks at you like you're the only thing in the room. And when the secret of their son threatens to surface, the empire Selene built to destroy him might just collapse on them both. He thought he was done with her. He had no idea she was just getting started.

I was sold at dawn and delivered to hell before sunset. I did not bow when I met him. I do not know why. Every instinct I had screamed at me to lower my eyes, to make myself small, to survive the first night by becoming invisible. Instead, I looked directly into the eyes of the most dangerous Alpha alive, and I said something I should not have said. Something shifted in his face that I have not been able to stop thinking about since. He claimed me in front of his entire court that same night. Not as a servant. Not as a slave to be shuffled into the lower quarters and forgotten. As his. Personal. In the chamber next to his own, behind doors that only he has the key to, close enough that I can hear him breathing through the wall when the palace goes quiet. I know what he wants from me. I know what men like him take from women like me. What I did not know, what nobody warned me about, what I was completely and devastatingly unprepared for, was that the wanting would go both ways. Enemies are closing in from every direction. His former lover wants me dead. The uncle who sold me is feeding my secrets to the pack's enemies. A rogue army is building in the dark and I am at the center of all of it, the Omega nobody was supposed to notice, the girl nobody was supposed to want. The wolf who claimed me will burn his entire kingdom to the ground before he lets anything touch me.

Elara Robin has always been at the bottom — an omega in a world that looks down on her, tormented by her school bully Cara Thorne, and overshadowed by her rank. The last thing she ever expected was a mate, let alone the most feared alpha of all the packs. But the Moon Goddess has never been known to make mistakes. One party. One scent. One undeniable connection that changes everything. Now Elara finds herself bound to Alpha Darius Thorne — powerful, cold, and the brother of the girl who made her life miserable. And somewhere in the shadows, an enemy is watching, waiting to use her as the weapon to bring the greatest alpha to his knees. Love was never supposed to be her story. But fate has other plans.

We all know a Viola, we've all met a Viola, we might even be one. Viola is a woman in her early twenties with absolutely no reason to keep living. She wants to die, so she tries to, sadly for her, she doesn't. Now, she is standing in the ashes of who she used to be with no idea who she should be. Viola will break your heart, but only the best stories do. She is consumed by a loss that is as deep as the ocean, pain that knows no bound, extreme anxiety and chronic paranoia, trauma that is skin deep, sadness that always return, depression that never leaves and how agonizing a friendship-breakup can be. This is a book about Love, the love that lives between you, love that is hard to find, harder to understand, the love we were born with, waiting patiently between our ribcages, waiting to be recognized, to be seen, the love we should have for ourselves, the love that does not fade.

“Oh my darling Uncle”. I said while hugging him as he was backing me. “Uncle?”. A different voice asked and it seems to come from the person I'm hugging. He turned around with me in his arms and I stared into his eyes. Dark eyes. Uncle Max's eyes are blue, like mine. I let go of him immediately like I had been burned and blushed furiously. “Uhm, sorry. I thought you… were my uncle”. I told him. A chuckle brought my attention back to his handsome face. “Hello cutie, why do you think your uncle is here?” He said, his voice sending shivers down my body. *** Happiness Matthews, a 19-year-old college freshman, thought she had everything figured out when she left her small Texas town for the bright lights of California.

At first, their living arrangement seems like a temporary inconvenience—but the longer they stay under the same roof, the harder it becomes to ignore the magnetic tension building between them. As the lines between family and desire blur, Happiness finds herself drawn to the man who carries both charm and a painful past. But with every passing day, the unspoken rules become more difficult to follow, and a dangerous truth about Mason’s past threatens to tear them both apart.
