Connor Calloway was forbidden.
Rockstar. Bad boy. Heartbreaker.
My best friend's ex.

Signing on as the headliner for his band was our chance,
We could make it big, if I could just resist temptation.
I could stay away, keep my distance,
It would be easy, I told myself.
Boy, was I wrong. Dead wrong.
That black hair, those deep blue eyes,
His perfect a** and charming smile.
The way he looked at me backstage,
Full of hunger and lust.
Like he wanted to pin me down right there,
And f*ck me all night long.
No, I couldn't do it,
Betray my best friend like that.
But then I did what was so wrong, but felt so right.

Now, I have to face the music,
And face the biggest dilemma of my life. 
How am I going to tell everyone the truth?
That I'm pregnant with my best friend's ex...

Charlie

I don’t believe in fairytales. I definitely don’t have time for them.
I also don’t have time for Jesse Franklin—hotshot firefighter, too handsome for his own good, and cocky to boot.
He’s also rude.
Whatever. As I said, I don’t have time.
My life is complicated and messy.
There is zero room for anything, most certainly not swoon-worthy Jesse who I can’t seem to kick out of my mind.
Then, he goes and does something I never expected. Ever.
My life suddenly gets more complicated, and this time it’s all about a fairytale.

Jesse

Dr. Lane is all kinds of uptight—oh-so proper and professional.

I want her, and I can’t even say why.
One night with her, and she’s seared into my soul.
All bets are off.
But her life is complicated. I don’t do complicated. So I think.
Because, you see, Charlie is everything I ever wanted and more. I just didn’t know it yet.
She was mine the minute I laid eyes on her.
She just didn’t know it yet.

Declan McAvoy. Voted Biggest Flirt. Highest goal scorer in Kings of Rittenhouse Prep history.
Everyone’s impressed, well except one person…

After a blow out in high school, Makenna Halstead and I were happy to never have to cross paths again. Except life has a way of knocking you straight in the teeth with a puck when you least expect it. She hasn’t just returned to my life, she crashed into it like a wrecking ball...into my college kingdom, into my class, and smack dab into the seat next to mine. My new lab partner to be exact.

For years we hated each other... I may be King on the ice, but she is the Ice Queen. She has no problem calling me out, doesn’t back down, and her piercing blue eyes have me picturing more than than just my arms wrapped around her.

Now we’re stuck with each other and there’s no getting around that fact that we have to work together. My hockey career hangs in the balance. Problem? Oh, yeah.

I can’t deny it. I want her. More than I ever thought I could want a woman. I’ve got one semester–only four months–to convince her everything she thought about me was wrong.

Will my queen let me prove to her I’m the King she can’t live without?

Only one way to find out...

Marry—or else.

Navy SEAL Brian Lake is out of luck. Going rogue on his last mission landed him on a fast track out of the Navy—years too soon to have saved up enough money to buy the ranch he’s always wanted. Without a career—or the cash to start over—Brian’s options are few, until Army general Augustus Reed steps in with an intriguing new mission—a permanent one.

Ignored by her absentee father, duped by thief he appointed to oversee her family’s ranch, Cass Reed is done with men for good. From now on she’s determined to run Two Willows herself, so when her father sends a Navy SEAL to fix up her house, she vows to run him off her land as soon as possible. But Brian’s just as determined to stay, and he’s in a far different league than the men she’s met before.

Brian’s ready to do anything that will earn him a share of a prosperous ranch—even take a chance on marrying the General’s daughter. And he soon realizes it won’t be a hardship to marry Cass. She’s everything he’s ever dreamed of in a woman—and Two Willows is everything he wanted in a ranch.

But he’s not the only one who wants Two Willows—and Cass.

Will falling in love be the most dangerous mission of all?

I’ve always been good at sharing.

You have to be when you grow up in a family like mine.

But I never wanted to share Logan.

He was the first thing I wanted all to myself.

Too bad I missed my chance.

Unlike Piper.

Not that I hold it against her. After all, she was ready to love him in ways I wasn’t, ways I was... insanely jealous of.

And I know better than anyone you can’t help who you love.

Just who knows about it.

And now that he'll always be off limits, there’s no point in sharing my secret.

It doesn’t matter if my body screams for his touch whenever we cross paths.

It doesn’t matter if my heart swells to six times its normal size at the mere thought of that handsome loner’s shy smile.

It doesn’t even matter if I think I could love him better than she did.

Because Logan Jones and I are never going to happen.

They say I’m Texas royalty.

Well, this princess needs a damn break. And an orgasm or ten.

Which is why I’m standing on the doorstep of Broken Creek Ranch in the middle of a thunderstorm, determined to ditch my virginity before my father marries me off to one of his filthy rich business partners.

My plan? Pick one of the Maddox brothers to do the deed.

But that was before I came face to face with seven of the sexiest men I’ve ever seen.

I’m desperately attracted to each of them. Even oldest brother, Vance, who’s dead set against my plan. He says I’m too young. Too innocent.

Whatever.

Fortunately, his brothers invite me to stay and play before choosing who will take my innocence, but how can I pick? More importantly, will I even get the chance? Because there’s no way my father’s going to let me go…

Seven hot, hard men dedicated to the pleasure of one woman? Yes, please! As with all of my books, this naughty, standalone reverse harem story has no cheating, and a HEA is guaranteed!
 

She’s the one woman I should stay away from, but I can’t help myself...

They say being a billionaire has its perks, but I hardly notice. After being widowed, my beautiful little girl is the most important thing to me. Esme hasn’t spoken to anyone but me since her mother’s death. When she goes missing, I’m this close to losing it.

When Esme turns up safe and sound with a cute waitress, I’m ready to give the lady a reward and be on our way, but then Esme speaks to her. A simple “thank you” from my daughter who hasn't spoken to anyone in years. I know I can’t let the waitress get away. It has nothing to do with the face that she can melt me with a glance. Nothing at all...

Melanie is nothing like the women who throw themselves at me. Her big brown eyes take my breath away from the minute I lay eyes on her. She fills out her pink waitress uniform with curves I can’t wait to get my hands on. I can’t get her out of my head.

Melanie’s bringing my little girl out of her shell, which means she’s strictly off limits. But having her under my roof and close enough to touch is too much of a temptation. My legendary control is beginning to slip and I don’t know how much longer I can resist breaking every rule I have. I've sworn off romance because I know the stakes are far too high for me if anyone uncovers the secrets I've been keeping. Letting anyone in could destroy my world, but it's harder to keep my distance every day I'm near her.

Mr. Control is a HOT romance that will tug at your heartstrings, melt your panties, and leave you begging for more. HEA included! This single dad romance is approximately 62,000 words!

Simon tells me I’m his star player and offers to give me extra coaching.
Some one on one time to improve my game.
How can I say no?

What’s a girl to do when her heart won’t follow the script?

Still reeling from the death of her husband three years ago, journalist and single mother Geni Costa is less than thrilled when, through a stroke of strange luck, she scores a spot on the reality dating TV show The Spice of Love. She accepts the opportunity anyway, hoping a big scoop on this season’s rich, mysterious bachelor will earn her a desperately-needed promotion and raise so she can afford a better life for her daughter. Besides, finding true love on a reality TV show is impossible…

Blaise Moreau has had it with his job as head producer of The Spice of Love. Embroiled in a messy divorce and unable to see his beloved son, he can barely muster enough energy to promote the “true love” and “soul mate” baloney he used to believe were real. Blaise is desperate for an easy, boring season…

Too bad he let Geni Costa on the show.

The feisty single mother blows up one date after another. As Blaise scrambles to pick up the pieces and salvage the show, he feels himself irrationally drawn to her…but she’s supposed to fall in love with the bachelor, not him. And for Geni, what began as a financial opportunity turns into something more when against all reason she finds herself falling in love—but with the bachelor, or the head producer?

The stakes climb higher in this second book in the No Weddings Series for Hannah Martin, a woman restrained by her past, and Cade Michaelson, the man who could help set her free.

I’m drawn to Cade as he charms his way into more of my life and offers me something I truly haven’t ever had: a friend. Yet his humor, patience, and drop-dead sexiness take my breath away, and I know my heart is at risk. I want to move forward but am terrified I can’t.

Cade seems to have it together from his own devastating heartache. His subtle actions, however, suggest a different story. And even though he says he wants more, I wonder if he’s able to trust in our developing relationship.

As we navigate through our tangled feelings, we vow to take it slow. Yet no matter how careful we try to be, things between us intensify—and there’s nothing we can do, or want to do, to stop it.

"Escort is stunningly sexy and staggeringly heartfelt-gorgeously written and saturated with pure, unadulterated desire. Five Mon Dieu stars!" - Sierra Simone, USA Today bestselling author

A male escort. His virgin client. What happens when one night isn't enough?

I'm an escort, which means this date is nothing more than a mutually enjoyable transaction. There shouldn't be any surprises, not for one as jaded as me, but when I walk into the penthouse suite of L'Etoile, everything changes.

1) For one thing, Bea is heartstoppingly gorgeous. Pale green eyes and endless freckles. Curves I want to spend all night exploring, as if her body was made for me.

2) Her innocence makes me want to use my entire inventory of bedroom tricks on her and then invent a few more.

3) Except that... she's a virgin.

I can initiate her into the world of desire without letting her get attached, can't I? A few hours of tutoring, and at the end of the night a small fortune will be deposited into my bank account.

But once I realize one night with her won't be enough, I'm the one who's screwed.
