Definition of "Contemporary Romance": While technically a subgenre of the Romance category, that category is much too large to not be broken down. Contemporary Romance, by definition, is set in the time in which it was written. The ebooks in this category are largely focused on the relationship and romantic love shared by two people. Typically, ebooks in this category reward characters that are good people, punish those that are bad, and end with an upbeat, positive conclusion. But, that "formula" is always being altered by excellent authors--which is why we read their ebooks, right?
Some examples of the best Contemporary Romance ebooks past and present include Nicholas Sparks (The Longest Ride), Tracy Brogan (Crazy Little Thing), Jojo Moyes (Me Before You), Nicholas Sparks (The Notebook), Lisa Kleypas (Blue-Eyed Devil).

What happens when a mind-blowing one-night stand won't stay in the past?
I rescued her without thinking.
I can't believe I didn't kill that guy for what he did.
I'm a notorious playboy and self-made millionaire.
I'm used to women throwing themselves at me.
Saving one is a different story.
I could see the fear in her striking blue eyes.
So, I go after her, comfort her.
It wasn't like I planned to have sex with her in the alley.
Or spend the whole night making her scream.
She wanted one perfect night. I gave her that and more.
I can't forget her no matter how hard I try.
And when I find out she has a secret...
A secret tied to that one hot night - I will not give up until I make her MINE.
As a flight attendant, Rayne Jackson is used to cancellations, but she never dreamed her latest would lead to a whirlwind tour of London with a handsome stranger...or a life-altering night in his bed. One evening is all the enigmatic man can give her, and Rayne greedily takes it, despite suspecting it will never be enough.
Heading home after another extreme mission, Keane "Ghost" Bryson hadn't planned to seduce someone during his layover, but Rayne is too sweet to resist. Being a Delta Force member means lying to protect his identity, which is unfortunate, considering Rayne seems made for Ghost, right down to the tattoo on her back. For the first time in his life, regret fills him as he slips away the following morning.
Both are shocked when, months later, they meet again - under the worst possible circumstances. Seems fate has given them a second chance...if they can survive the terrorist situation they're in. If Rayne can forgive Ghost his lies. And if Ghost can trust Rayne to be strong enough to endure the secrets and uncertainty that come with loving a Delta Force soldier.
I asked my father for a rose. It nearly cost him his life. I found myself alone in a castle, surrounded by seven beasts living under the curse of a witch they had all wronged at some point in their lives. Each of them were plucked from the mortal world they lived in and doomed to an eternity in the cold, dark castle. Can I find a way to tame seven beasts and help them remember the men they used to be?
Alexander, a politician who thought he would be president until he tried to burn the witch at the stake in the 1800s.
Boone, a gunslinger from the Wild West who once hunted the James-Younger Gang. His mistake was killing the witch's beloved.
Gill, a playboy gambler from the roaring twenties that caught the witch's eye, but he couldn't be true to her.
Braden and Shane, twins that ran drugs in the eighties only run afoul of the witch when they thought they were finally going to escape their past.
Randall, a chef who used to have his own reality show until is foul mouth and vibrant temper brought on the witch's wrath.
And number seven? Well he's a legend, just like his sword, and we're all in his castle.
Kelli's Note: This is a 50,000 word steamy standalone fairy tale with a HEA and no cheating! I'm a girl that likes wild and crazy romances, so that is exactly what you get from me. My heroes might be a little over-the-top with a touch of caveman and you'll get some angst along the way, but I promise that the good parts will give you a plenty of reasons to read this all by yourself!
Nicole is without a doubt the oddest creature I’ve ever met.
As far as therapists go, she seems pretty damn good, even though her methods are way the hell out there. And I actually like that she uses my gym for her afterschool sessions. That is, until she starts sticking her nosy—albeit gorgeous—butt into my business. It’s bad enough the sexy little smarty has wormed her way into my head. There’s no frickin’ way I’m letting her psychoanalyze the rough patch my kid’s going through. I don’t care how much the woman knows about this stuff; my daughter is my life. We’ve been doing just great on our own, no outsiders needed.
The only problem? The persistent menace apparently has a set of keys to barge right in…
Logan is without a doubt the most fascinating man I’ve ever met.
As far as billionaires go, he’s far from typical. Practically allergic to the indoors and stubborn to the extreme, but an absolute teddy bear—of the gruff, burly, mountain-climbing variety—when it comes to his daughter. And for some reason, I seem to rub him the wrong way. Unsurprising, since I’ve never really been good at rubbing men the right way…pun entirely intended. What I am good at though, is working with kids. The man needs my help, even though he doesn’t think so. He may be the most loving father I’ve ever encountered, but this here is my domain.
The only problem? My clothes seem to keep falling off whenever we’re alone together…
NOTE: This is a quick, steamy romance with lots of chemistry and very little drama for the on-the-go reader looking for some frisky, feel-good fun. Contents include: a big, rugged single dad being driven crazy by a quirky, head-shrinking heroine, copious hot, dirty, descriptive sex, and a swoony instalove plot complete with a sweet HEA. No cheating, no cliffhanger.
"Fresh, fun, and unbelievably hot, Audrey Carlan's Calendar Girl series will have you falling in love over and over again and craving the next installment." ~ Meredith Wild, #1 NYT Best Selling Author of the Hacker Series.
Synopsis
It’s really simple. I needed money. A lot of money. One million dollars to be exact. The amount didn’t matter. All that mattered is that at the end of that price tag held my father’s life.
No money. No life.
The time limit was one year. On January 1st I had to pay up or my Father was going to be killed.
When you’re faced with an ultimatum like this, you do whatever you have to do.
And that’s exactly what I did.
The job…Exquisite Escorts. My role, serve as high priced arm candy to anyone that can afford the $100,000 price tag for a month of my company. Sex is optional (for me) and a 20% increase on the price.
***
Mia Saunders just barely escaped a paltry life back home in Las Vegas until she gets the call that her Father has been beaten to within an inch of his life for not paying his gambling debt. Problem is, the lone shark is her lousy, ruthless ex-boyfriend. Another guy in a long line of men she’d fallen head over heels for. Not anymore. Mia’s mission is simple. Serve as a high-priced escort for her Aunt’s company and pay monthly against her Father’s bad debt. A month with a rich man who she doesn’t have to sleep with if she doesn’t want to? Easy money. At least that’s the way it was supposed to go.
Each installment in the Calendar Girl Serial will release every month throughout 2015. The stories will feature Mia, told from her perspective as she continues her journey as an escort to twelve clients in twelve different locations.
Warning: This book is designed for audiences 18+ due to language and graphic sexual content.
I signed on to give this baby a second chance for a mother. I never counted on falling for my ex.

It was easy to tell myself it wasn't my fault. That they didn't exist.
Until the day my sister died, with a clause in her will begging me to be a mother to their baby.
How could I deny the child?
Except that means seeing and being with Ethan every day.
I watch in wonder as he deals with his little girl, he's the most loving, caring father.
Soon, my body fills with desire whenever he walks into the room.
I try to ignore his crazy sexy body and even sexier smile, but every day it gets harder.
Now he says he wants me. He's always wanted me.
And he wants us to be a family.
*** A steamy STANDALONE contemporary romance with a smoking hot hero. No cliffhanger, no cheating and a guaranteed happily-ever-after.***

A billionaire made an app that matches people with their soulmates.
Too bad it paired his childhood sweetheart with his worst enemy.
One hot architect. One naughty schoolteacher. One crazy night that changes everything.
If I had known I'd have a hot architect balls deep inside of me before the end of the weekend, I'd have made time for a pedicure. Also, a little chat about not losing my shit at all the wrong moments.
Hindsight was a bitch, and karma…well, I didn't know her story yet.
Meet Lauren Halsted.
It's all the little things—the action plans, the long-kept promises—that started falling apart when my life slipped into controlled chaos.
After I fell ass-over-elbow into Matthew Walsh's arms.
I couldn't decide whether I wanted to run screaming or rip his pants off, and most days I wanted a little of both. If I was being honest with myself, it was rip his pants off, ride him like a workhorse, and then run screaming.
Meet Matthew Walsh.
A rebellious streak ran through Lauren Halsted. It was fierce and unrelentingly beautiful, and woven through too many good girl layers to count, and she wasn't letting anyone tell her what to do.
Unless, of course, she was naked.
She wasn't looking for me and I sure as shit wasn't looking for her, but we found each other anyway and now we were locked in a battle of wills, waiting for the other to blink.
Sometimes the universe conspires to bring people together. Other times, it throws them down a flight of stairs and leaves them in a bruised and bloodied heap.
You fancy yourself an angel.
Well, darlin'...I'm here to make you into a naughty one.
That's what I do. I make women go crazy.
They're driven insane by desire.
They want to get their hands on my body.
They want to enjoy the fruits of my wealth.
But I don't care about any of that. All I want is you.
I can't get you out of my head.
The way you move your body from side to side.
You tease me. Tempt me.
With your lipstick and lingerie.
Your lace and La Perla.
It's pretty clear what I'm having tonight. Over and over again.
All the odds are stacked against us.
My family. Your friends. Even fate.
None of it matters.
Because we belong together.
There's only one thing you need to know.
You're gonna be an angel around me, baby girl...then you better be ready to get your halo dirty.
This is a 120,000 word epic romance for your enjoyment with a HEA! Enjoy, babes

But then, old flames reignite and things start looking up for me.

"We Were Here is a bucketload of ALL THE FEELS…” — New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Julia Kent
In the 90’s, sex was dangerous, music was life, and love was something no one had ever felt like we did.
We met in college, completely free for the first time in our lives and determined to enjoy every minute of it. For four years, we gossiped and flirted, partied and road-tripped. We were inseparable.
Each of us has our own story of falling in or out of love. Of finding out who we are. Of growing up.
We thought we knew everything. We knew nothing.
We Were Here is where the Modern Love Stories begins, in a standalone that perfectly captures the humor, angst, and sheer chaos of college.
