Seattle meant safety. A new start for me and my little girl.
I didn't anticipate falling for a new guy.
Especially not my boss.

It was the dream job - in a city miles from my jerk of an ex.
I just wanted to get on and work, make a fresh start.

But Alex is the kind of guy you can feel in a room.
Perfect body, dark tousled hair just begging for my fingers to entwine in the curls.
Sultry blue eyes that send electric shocks to my core.

Nah-ah. We're not going there, girl.
I've got baggage - the perfect kid... and her abusive dad.
I don't need the complications of an office romance.

But... what if this man is my future?
When things get tough he picks me up.

When the calls start, and danger stalks me, will his love keep me going?

Why the hell did it have to be her?

The bartender at Four Horseman was a walking wet dream and now she's my damn job.

I thought it would be simple. Get intel from the witness. Ignore her sass and sexuality.

I was wrong. She's more than I bargained for.

I may risk everything to save her from her fate.

My life, my future….my club.
 

Busta… My jailer.

I thought he was good-looking at the bar.

No more.

The man is arrogant, ruthless: a complete prick.

I need a way out of this and through him is the best.

I need to find a chink in his armor.

I'll do what it takes to gain my freedom.

Anything to get free. 

Except giving him the intel he wants.

Her future is already set, all she has to do is marry a complete stranger.

Kinsley Felton has everything. Money, a loving family, and a modeling career. She graduates from Yale in just days, but unlike a typical college student she doesn't have to spend hours looking for a job when she graduates. Kinsley will inherit the multi-billion dollar gaming and hospitality company her great-grandfather started. The only problem is she has to do everything her family asks for in order to get that money. That includes marrying a man of her family's choosing. That's not a problem since Kinsley has been following her family's orders all her life. Until a phone call from her grandfather changes everything.

Will she marry the man her family chooses or will she decide her own future?

This book ends on a cliffhanger. 

I finally realized that I don’t deserve to be treated like crap by anyone.

Dakota thought everything was great with her life going as planned: a climbing career, friends, and a fiancé. But the day came when she realized that nothing was what she’d thought, and that was when it all snapped: Dakota finally started fighting back for what she deserved.

True, it had left her without job or fiancé, but Dakota had gotten something back even more important: an opportunity to chase the important things. So when her friend Lauren suggested an off-the-cuff road trip where anything could happen, Dakota agreed, not expecting much; she certainly didn’t expect much from the handsome but rude bearded man she and Lauren met on the beach in San Francisco, who spoke to her with judgement and dismissed her as a Daddy’s girl, not knowing anything about her.

Burnt out from running one of his family’s high-end resorts, Ryan Baxter took over the Baxter Holding’s Hostel project to get a little distance and figure out the important things in his life. Thus begins a few months of self-discovery and beard growing while he plots his way forward. There was no way he could’ve anticipated meeting a very cute, very standoffish brown-eyed girl on the beach who would change his life. But the second he sees her, Dakota has lodged in Ryan’s mind, whether he likes it or night.

The timing isn’t right, the location isn’t ideal, and it’s definitely not love at first meeting. But when you just can’t stop thinking about someone, you learn something important: there’s always tomorrow.

I’m thinking it’s finally got to be my turn.

I've got no man and no money. Nothing but a personality and a smile.

But maybe that's enough this time.

The richest guy in New York is looking for a secretary, and lucky for me, he’s young and as hot as sin.

Too bad he’s an alpha asshole rich boy who’s stuck on himself. Nothing I do is right.

Throw in a crazy ex and a father that can’t stand anything that breathes in his personal space, and I. Am. Out.

He can find someone else to take notes and get his coffee.

I’m fine being broke and single. I’ve gotten good at it.

Besides, I’m not interested in a billionaire affair.

Or am I already in too deep to leave?

Sure as hell feels that way.

This is book 1 of a 3 book series. You will need to read book 2 and 3 to complete the story.

A small town contemporary romance about unexpected love and second chances. . . 

The very last thing on Grier McAllister's Someday List is going back to Timbell Creek, Virginia, the town where she grew up. Timbell Creek holds too many bad memories for her, memories finally put to rest with a successful image consultant business in New York City and a hefty therapy bill. When an opportunity to choose a "Jane Austen Girl" for a visiting duke falls in her lap, the only catch that she must be from Grier's hometown, Grier tells herself she'll do what she needs to do and then leave it all behind for good. 

But Grier doesn't count on finding that her mother is no longer the person she used to be. She certainly doesn't plan on falling for an old boyfriend's really hot brother! And it isn't long before she begins to realize Timbell Creek is not only a part of who she was, but might be a part of who she is as well.
 

The small Montana town near the Kooskia reserve seemed like the perfect place for Juliet Montgomery to hide from her not-so-law-abiding family. But when her peace is shattered by a break-in and threatening phone calls, it's clear someone back in New York knows where she is. It's time to plan her getaway, and fast—but first, she needs to tie up a few loose ends and find out exactly what the town's sexy cowboy sheriff is hiding.

Sheriff Quinn Lodge has enough demons of his own to know when someone's hiding something, and he's determined to uncover what's beneath Juliet's uptight, city-girl exterior—preferably one piece of clothing at a time. But when their chemistry goes from fizzy to full-on explosive, things start getting complicated.
How can Juliet stay beneath the covers with Quinn, when doing so means blowing her cover?

Each book in the Maverick Montana series is a standalone story that can be enjoyed out of order.

Recording contract. Adoring fans. Industry respect. I have everything I always wanted. But I’m so close to f*cking it up. All because of him.

Liam Knight. My musical idol. My inspiration. My savior.

He stirs up feelings I’ve forgotten, memories I’ve suppressed. I want his lips on mine. I want his hands on my skin. I want his arms wrapped around me, never letting go.

Liam says I’m a star. We both are. He says we’ll burn brighter together.

But I know better.

I had it all once. And I lost it. I’ll never let that happen again.

Because, sometimes, after a star burns out…

It collapses into a black hole, consuming everything in its path.

It’s always been about the money.

To them. Not me.

Women swoon over my wallet, but it’s a façade. A ruse.

I keep to myself and always will.

Besides, one thing I’ve learned is you never pursue romantic relationships at work.

Especially not as the boss. The billionaire. The top shit.

A girl from my past shows up at a fundraiser. The one that got away in college.

She needs help changing the city for the better with a children’s home, but I have different ideas.

Crazily enough, the more money I spend, the more time I get with her.

And this time, I’m willing to pull out all the stops.

It’s hard not to slip back into my old ways, but this woman is the one.

She makes me want to be a brand new man.

Every good girl deserves a bad boy. ~ Weston

Charming, poignant, and sexy, When You Got a Good Thing pulled me in with its sweet charm and deft storytelling, and didn't let go until the very last page. It has everything I love in a small-town romance! ~USA Today Best-Selling Author Tawna Fenske

She thought she could never go home again. Kennedy Reynolds has spent the past decade traveling the world as a free spirit. She never looks back at the past, the place, or the love she left behind—until her adopted mother’s unexpected death forces her home to Eden’s Ridge, Tennessee.

Deputy Xander Kincaid has never forgotten his first love. He’s spent ten long years waiting for the chance to make up for one bone-headed mistake that sent her running. Now that she’s finally home, he wants to give her so much more than just an apology.

Kennedy finds an unexpected ally in Xander, as she struggles to mend fences with her sisters and to care for the foster child her mother left behind. Falling back into his arms is beyond tempting, but accepting his support is dangerous. He can never know the truth about why she really left. Will Kennedy be able to bury the past and carve out her place in the Ridge, or will her secret destroy her second chance?

AUTHOR INTERVIEW

Q: What makes the Misfit Inn series special?

The Misfit Inn is a quartet of southern romance novels focused on the family saga of the Reynolds sisters and the loves they find along the way, as they come back together as a family after the death of their mother, proving that the family you make is stronger than the one you're born into. Just like my Wishful series, The Misfit Inn quartet is intended to highlight everything that I love about living in the small town South--all the quirks, foibles, and dreams that provide a fabulous backdrop to contemporary romances about stubborn, independent women and the men who love them.

Q: Who would dig these books?

The Misfit Inn is a southern romance series written for anyone looking for family saga romance, where you get to follow the loves of each member of a generation. This quartet explores the relationships between sisters and what the bonds of family truly mean. Many of my readers also enjoy the books of Susan Elizabeth Phillips, Kristan Higgins, Melanie Shawn, Ava Miles, and Jill Shalvis.

We were high school sweethearts. I was head over heels for her and no one could tell me we weren’t going to last forever. College? Going pro? My family’s money? None of it mattered. She was all I needed.

Then she ripped my heart out. But I’m not going to let that happen again. 

She’s back. Invading my life and acting like she was the wronged one. The pain is still there, but I can’t keep my eyes off her. I can’t stop thinking about her and how much was left unsaid between us. Being this close is making me question everything I thought I knew about her. 

This time everything will be on my terms. Everything… 

Love follows no rules...

Growler and Anna begin their lives at the cosh, a place with only one rule: A switch may not favor only one shifter, because it makes her weak. This is a rule Anna has no choice but to break, as Growler steals her heart again and again.

Boss cuffed him on the back of the neck and forced him to bend as they headed into the meadow. “Keep your eyes down.”

The other alphas were already strolling across the meadow as men, hard males all, they headed for a stage to the far side of where Growler had dropped the vampire head at the feet of Anna. She’d looked as beautiful as he had remembered. There had been many fair switches in the meadow, but none had called to him like Anna. He could not have taken that vampire head to anyone else.

Up onto the stage the alphas manhandled him. “Stand tall, that the switches may examine you,” Boss told him.

Growler did so, knowing he’d passed the alpha’s tests, and he could raise his chin.

One switch with long dark hair, caramel skin, and a plain white dress that stirred the imagination stopped in front of them. “His name?” she said to Boss.
“Growler,” Growler growled.

The switch laughed and covered her mouth. “Such a fyne name. It fits you. You were the one growling in the forest this morning?”Growler nodded once.

When the switch gave him one last coy smile and wandered off, he set his eyes to look for Anna. She was near the center of the circle, looking lost, nearly wringing her hands, her sister talking urgently to her. His eyes never wavered from her, as the alphas seemed to wait for something. They all stood on the stage, and switches openly gazed at them from seats and perches.

A pair of switches passed in front of them, eyeing him up and down. He growled, because he could not help himself. It was what he did. Boss cuffed him on the back of the head.

Anna had heard his growl. She looked up, seeing him for the first time. Recognition crossed her face, then a smile. He was glad to see it. He stood a little taller, shook out his muscles a bit more...

Six sizzling bad boys and billionaires to get your pulse racing. These alphas know what they want and will stop at nothing to get it. Each story is hot, steamy and full length for your pleasure.

Billionaire Neighbor
I spy with my lustful eye...
My feisty neighbor confronts me on the street, accusing me of spying on her with my telescope.
If only I'd known I could've been watching her in her bedroom, I hate a missed opportunity.

Fake Marriage Act
Fake a marriage for a million dollars? Easy.
Marry a stranger and after 6 months get a million dollars.
Sign me up.

Relentless Pursuit
I won't rest until I have her.
Every inch.
When I catch Ava upstairs in my mansion, I barely notice her amber eyes widening with fear...
Not with the stiffening in my pants.

Making His Baby
We're making this baby the old-fashioned way.
With my billions, I'll pay whatever it takes for her to have my child.
And I'm going to have fun putting it in her.

Best Jerk

From the first, Sir Geoffrey finds himself smitten by Lady Alyse, and, despite her infatuation with his friend, vows to win her love. When Geoffrey puts his mind to wooing Alyse, he is delighted to find her succumbing to his seduction. But when cruel circumstances separate them, Geoffrey must watch helplessly as Thomas steps in to protect Alyse—and falls in love with her himself.

As the three courtiers accompany Princess Joanna to her wedding in Spain, they run headlong into the Black Plague. With her world plunged into chaos, Alyse struggles with her feelings for both the men she loves. But which love will survive?

They say your first kiss should be earned.

Mine was stolen by a devil in a masquerade mask under the black Chicago sky.

They say the vows you take on your wedding day are sacred.

I, Francesca Rossi, found myself erasing and rewriting mine until the very last chapter.

One kiss.
Two men.
Three lives.
Entwined together.

And somewhere between these two men, I had to find my forever.

This omnibus includes the first three books of the Mortis Vampire Series.

Death Beckons - Working late one night, Natalie Pierce is kidnapped by a creature that looks like a harmless old man, but is something far more terrifying. Waking up in a creepy mausoleum, she is forced to endure three nights of indescribable agony. Her life is forever altered when she is transformed into a monster of myth and legend; a vampire.

Lonely and full of despair, she comes face to face with the irresistible and enigmatic Lord Lucentio. Justice bringer for the European Vampire Council, Luc has been sent to Australia to kill Natalie's maker, but someone has already beaten him to it. He quickly discovers that Nat is far from an ordinary fledgling. He suspects that she is Mortis, a figure of both hope and dread among their kind.

Natalie is propelled into a dark and mysterious underworld that takes her far away from her hometown of Brisbane. Her arrival was foretold long ago and her fate is already sealed. Nat's entire species is in danger and it is her job to save them. She desperately wants to escape from the burden that has been thrust upon her, but she is inextricably linked to a two thousand year old prophecy. An unknown enemy has begun to whittle down their already limited numbers. If Nat fails to accept her destiny, all vampires will soon cease to exist.

Death Embraces - Natalie Pierce awakens to find herself buried in a box that strongly resembles a coffin. After some initial confusion she remembers that she has become a member of a very exclusive club; the living dead.

Natalie has three important tasks ahead of her. One: escape from her underground prison. Two: hunt down the creature responsible for imprisoning her. Three: discover who or what is behind the cause of the sentient shadows that only she can see.

As the long awaited and highly unanticipated Mortis, Nat has abilities that no other vampire has ever before possessed. She must utilize the strangeness that sets her apart from her new kin to fulfill a prophecy that was written over two thousand years ago. The ancient text predicts that it is her destiny to wipe out the vast bulk of her own kind. Despite all of the weird and wacky powers that she has gained, not even Mortis can avoid her fate.

Death Deceives - From the moment she’d been turned into Mortis, Natalie Pierce had been fated to come face to face with the first vampire ever created. Hideously transformed over thousands of years by the diseased blood that runs through his veins, the First had created an army of grey skinned imps. His plan is to enslave humanity and to turn them into a vast herd of cattle to feed his offspring.

Nat and her friends are all that stands between the humans and the bat faced, orange eyed imps. Aside from the overwhelming odds against them, Natalie foresaw an even bigger danger. As vampires, they were all highly susceptible to becoming possessed by their shadows. Once that happened, they could then be turned into imps by the First. Luc, Geordie, Igor and Gregor would be doomed from the instant they set foot inside the First’s lair.

A recent prophecy had foretold that an army would come to Natalie’s aid. With many of her new kin already possessed by their shadows, Nat was uncertain where this mystery army would come from. She could only hope that the prophecy would come true. If it didn't, she would be facing the First and his growing army of ravenous offspring alone.

The last thing Natalia Kristoff expected was that her friend’s wild dream to find her a fake husband for a Green Card would have any sort of success. Yet here she is, sitting in a private booth, listening to the sexiest man she’s ever seen lay out the details of just what he needs from her. In return, he’s going to sign the papers that stand between her and her dream job. She can’t believe what she’s hearing. Stand at his side, pretend she’s madly in love with him, all to satisfy some crazy family tradition? That’s a deal she can live with.

Kirell Ursa has a problem. A big one. His bear shifter family is in shambles, struck from within by traitors. With no one in charge of security, the head of his House has nominated him for the job. The only problem? Tradition dictates that anyone in power must have a mate. If he’s going to pull off this scheme, he must find a mate in the next 72 hours. Someone. Anyone. All they have to do is pretend to love him for a few days.

Things get off to a rocky start between the two when their first date is interrupted by Kirell’s enemies. As he slowly exposes Natalia to the truth, she’s forced to come to grips with the existence of another world, one she never thought existed. Shifters of all sorts collide as Kirell’s enemies work to expose his fraud, but the harder they try, the more Natalia finds she wants to be by his side. Can a relationship built on a handshake business agreement turn into something real, even in the face of a threat to Natalia’s very life?

Reed Sanders knew the first time he saw the neighbor girl in second grade that she was the one. He even stole his mom’s ring to seal the deal, but he got into trouble for doing it. It’s okay, though, because he knows that one day she’s going to be his wife and he’ll keep giving her the ring until then.

Cami Evans fell in love with the boy next door when she was seven years old. They spent their whole lives falling for one another until one day she’s taken from him. She spends five years with her father in a cult until she’s able to make her escape and find her way back to Reed.

Warning: Can true love happen when you’re just a kid? According to Alexa Riley it can! Fall head over heels for this ultra-sweet story of how childhood sweethearts find their way back to one another.
