Readers everywhere have already fallen in love with the Cimarrons of the Isle of Arcadia: a kingdom sealed off from the modern world…until now. Slowly, Arcadia has opened its borders to outsiders from the western world—but in this brand-new spin-off story, a native Arcadian ventures beyond the safety of her world, trading six months of her life for the kingdom’s financial stability. Manhattan might as well be another planet to innocent Mishella—and her keeper, the beautiful but bewildering Cassian Court, just as terrifying a mystery. He connects to her soul, challenges her mind…and awakens her body in ways she’s never dreamed. But how does she keep him from taking—then breaking—her heart?
Book 2:
Pretty Perfect Toy
“It’s time to live in the light, Ella…”
With their attraction too explosive to ignore, Cassian Court has whisked Mishella Santelle from her tiny island kingdom to the empire
he
rules: New York City. Here, they have succumbed to the magic of Temptation Manor, surrendering to their lust—and a love that won’t be denied.
But happiness is nearly ripped away, when an act of heroism turns Cassian into a target of violence…from which physical recovery is only the beginning of healing. Cassian must find a way to expose his emotional scars too—meaning he must visit a past refusing to release him from its haunting grip.
“Take me into the darkness, Cassian…”
What are the secrets of Turret Two? Once revealed, will they clear a path for new connection to Ella…or anchor him deeper in the past as they struggle with the challenges of the present? Being touted as New York’s fresh “it” couple is insane enough—but just when Ella decides she’s had enough of being the city’s perfect little toy, a shocking visitor changes everything…and she must accept an even more agonizing reality.
Deception isn’t always black and white. And sometimes, the prettiest toy hides the darkest secrets.

“Where to start? Once again Angel Payne makes my heart race, my blood pound and my lady bits tingle! I absolutely LOVE her writing. It’s gut-wrenching at times and laugh-out-loud funny at others. It’s smolderingly sexy and then I start to cry. Ugh. the gamut of emotions in every single story of hers I’ve ever read. Grab

Twinsie Talk Reviews
“5 smoldering, seductive stars.
Oh My Gahhh
. Even though this is book 7 in the Wild Boys series, it is my first book by Angel Payne, and I see what I’ve been missing! Aside from the excellent writing, excellent editing, ease of reading and all around fabulous story…the characters have me frantic. Dan is such a complex character…and Tess, wow, how she desired him from afar, being nothing more than co-workers, and then coming to bat for him after his “accident” and helping him recuperate in the hospital. This is a tale of desire, a body’s need for Dominance/submission, and how not following your soul’s desire for honesty could mush up a great thing.”

“A beautiful story…They complete each other. Their story was definitely worth reading.”
—
Books Eater Blog
“If you are looking for a hot read and a walk on the darker side of the BDSM world is OK with you, definitely check out
A WILDer Kind of Love
. The familiar faces from the previous books in the series are present in varying degrees, but this story can absolutely be read as a standalone.”
