Who would have thought that a fake engagement could lead to a real love story?

When thoughtful, careful Talia is presented with an outlandish plan by her boss to protect her from his player brother, she decides to go along with it. After all, she doesn’t want to be subjected to Sam’s supposedly lecherous advances, and isn’t in a position to turn down the healthy bonus her boss is offering- not with the responsibility of caring for her sick mother. But all of that changes when she meets Sam: sexy, loyal, charming, and whip-smart, he quickly breaks down every one of Talia’s carefully maintained walls until there’s only one thing left to do: fall for her fake fiance’s brother.

It takes a monster to catch one.

ZANE WALKER—FBI, Magickal Crimes Division
There’s a reason the bureau sends me undercover with the worst drug cartels in the world—my magick is as illegal and dirty as the enhancers they peddle. Just the kind that "Pennies" Machnik—Dziki crime lord—likes to use on his enemies. Being his enforcer lets me keep my own monster locked up while I build a case against him. If I can bring Pennies in, maybe I can finally put the stigma of what I am behind me. But when people start overdosing on his street drugs, a beautiful witch storms in, making demands she thinks she can back up with magick. I have to make a split second choice... and the monster comes raging out.

EVER STRANGE—CEO, Strange Medical Technologies
Someone has killed my father. They made it look like an overdose, but Asher Strange, the world-renown researcher of medical magick, never took an illegal drug in his life… much less tawdry magick enhancers. I run the family empire, but no one was more proud of the Strange family name than my father. A long line of us stretches back to the first days of High Magick—no way he would throw that away chasing a quick high. But before I can get an autopsy, my father’s body disappears… and being a Level One mage and one of the richest women in the city means I will get answers.

Someone’s putting deadly magick into street drugs… and it’s killing people all over Chicago. Zane’s magick is monstrous, and Ever’s power brings out his beast. But she insists on finding her father; and keeping her safe has suddenly become his job—on top of stopping an epidemic of overdoses that just might be cover for a serial killer. Together, they work to stop the dark magick that’s stalking the streets of Chicago… and try to keep their own secrets from consuming them both.

Ever Strange is the first book in a new paranormal romantic suspense series from bestselling romance author Alisa Woods. The first three books in the series (Ever Strange, Mercy Strange, Verity Strange) follow the three Strange sisters, each powerful witches in an influential magickal family embroiled in a mysterious plot to change everything about the magickal world. Part urban fantasy, Legal Magick takes place in an alternate Chicago where High Magick returned in 1859 and is now integral in every aspect of the legal—and illegal—world. Each book is a standalone romance.

This guy could offer me the moon, and I’d hand it right back.

Never in a million years did I expect to run into the biggest crush of my childhood.

But, of course, I have.

And I’m reporting to him at the new company I landed a big-time job at.

Arrogant. Hot as hell. Total jackass.

Why he’s still single is no mystery to me. He’s not willing to settle down.

He’s always been that way, and as far as I’m concerned, he always will be.

But, boy, is he beautiful to look at. Every part of me screams "run" as my insides turn to mush.

No. Not me too…

Not again. I should be immune by now.

I know him far too well to fall into this hopeless pit of adoration again.

But maybe there’s a way around it. It’s his power that drives me over the edge of insanity.

If I were the boss instead of him, I’d hold all the cards.

Good thing I’m always up for a challenge.

Funnily enough, this guy thinks he’s going to score.

He might have to redefine what getting lucky looks like after me.

At least, that’s the plan.

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

What happens when a Rock Star in Disguise meets a Billionaire in hiding?

Georgie doesn’t know who she is dating.

At a high society wedding, Georgie Johnson is introduced to Alexandre de Valentinois, a hereditary duke of nothing who flies around the world on his private planes and describes himself as “one of those despicable, idle rich men.” Yet, when pressed, he sings at the wedding in a gorgeous, clear tenor that tugs at Georgie’s soul, and miraculously, he calms her paralyzing stage fright so she can accompany him on the piano, even though she thought she had left her classical music career behind when she went into hiding.

But Alexandre has a dark side. His name is Xan Valentine, and he’s the rock star front man for Killer Valentine. He’s famous, but his paparazzi-dogged lifestyle might get Georgie killed.

On the run after another betrayal, Tamara Jensen believes she’s too broken for love… then come the signs.

A breakdown strands her in Vancouver, Washington on the corner of 99th and Highway 99. Across the street is the Highway 99 Diner where she lands a job as a waitress—however starting over is hard with all the broken trust.

Joe Phillips, the diner’s short-order cook, is rugged, handsome, sweet, and is determined to push past her walls—but he has secrets of his own. Tamara finds comfort in his friendship as she struggles with a past that haunts her, and a darkness she cannot shake. She could give her heart to Joe, if not for the fears that plague her.

I wasn’t supposed to be working the night I met JC.

Before him, I’d been content with the daily grind, managing one of NYC’s top nightclubs. So what if my life didn’t have a happily ever after? I didn’t believe in that anyway.

Then JC showed up.

Sexy, rich and smooth-talking, JC is nothing more than a distraction. I’m not interested in a night-in-shining latex so it’s easy to push the playboy away. Or it is until my life spins unexpectedly out-of-control. Then he’s there for me, offering a new method of survival, one based on following primal urges and desires that requires me to abandon my constant need for control.

His no-strings-attached lessons obliterate my carefully built walls. And as I discover freedom, I start to feel things for him that I shouldn’t. Things that make me fear for my newly vulnerable heart. Because JC has secrets of his own, and his secrets don’t want to set him free.

Dr. Amelia Crockett's life was going exactly the way she had always planned—until one day it wasn't.

When Mia's career plans are shattered, the always-in-control surgeon has no choice but to head home to Paradise Ranch and her five younger sisters, cowboy boots in tow, to figure out how to get her life back on track. The appearance of a frustrating, but oh-so-sexy, former soldier, however, turns into exactly the kind of distraction she can't afford.

Even though Mia can't stand the sight of him, Gabriel Harrison has never returned the sentiment. He can't seem to resist teasing the gorgeous doctor who pushes all of his buttons. And the searing hot kisses they share are turning him inside out.

As she begins to work with Gabe, helping former vets recover from severe PTSD with the aid of some wild Mustangs, Mia finds herself becoming more like the person she used to be. She never expected to alter her life plans, and definitely never expected to fall for anyone, least of all the handsome Gabe. But fate and some lucky red boots have a way of changing things. As their lives become more complicated, will Mia and Gabe's love be enough to smooth the way to a happily ever after?

Alessio told me he’d changed. 

But I never expected my heart to change. 

What was going to happen now? 

Betrayed

I’d gone undercover before, but never with the intention of getting a suspect into my bed.  

That’s how hot Sean O’Connor was.  

A criminal and yet the hottest crook I’d ever seen…so sexy he makes my mouth water and my panties melt.

I wanted to cuff him to my bed and make him sing like a bird.

But it’s hard to slap the cuffs on a guy when his tongue is in your ear and his arms are wrapped around you so tight you can barely breathe.

I know if I’m not careful, he might steal my heart and run.

I can’t let that happen. 

I’m a cop and he’s a crook.

And when it comes down to the wire, Sean O’Connor is going down, no matter the cost.

Pregnant. A baby. A lifelong commitment. Seems fu@king serious. 

Well, I don’t do commitments.

I believe in fun and one night stands.

And that was supposed to be just one such night.

But now, I can’t stop thinking about her.

Maybe it’s time for a change…

Her perfect skin, those sparkling blue eyes, and that captivating smile.

Let’s just call her irresistible;

My brain says no but my heart wants to take control, 

And that’s how she enters my world. 

A world where fighting criminals is a routine. 

But soon it got too dangerous.

Someone wants me dead.

They don’t care whom they take along the way.

From New York Times bestselling author Lexi Ryan comes a sexy new standalone romance about a woman torn between two men from her past, searching for missing memories that could hold the key to her future.

I’m in love with a man who tried to kill me. At least that’s what they tell me . . .

Six weeks ago, paramedics found me unconscious in my own home. Beaten. Bruised. Hardly breathing. When I woke up, I couldn’t remember the last three years or anything about my life in Jackson Harbor. They tell me my fiancé, Colton McKinley, is on the run for what he did to me. They tell me I’m safer if I stay away.

I don’t care if my memories ever come back. I want nothing to do with those missing years . . . until a sexy stranger with angry eyes shows up on my doorstep and demands I stop ignoring him.

Levi Jackson is my fiancé’s best friend, but seeing him sparks something inside me. As the truth unravels in my mind, I know they’re wrong about Colton. My own secrets are far more dangerous than the man I was engaged to.

I return to Jackson Harbor to search for answers and find myself running from a faceless boogeyman and seeking refuge in Levi’s arms. And in his bed.

I can’t deny my feelings for Levi. But as the pile of lies between us grows, I realize that sometimes the truth can’t set us free. Sometimes, it’s the very thing that can destroy us.

She’s the miracle I didn’t know I needed.

God sent her to save my failing ranch,

But there’s more to her than what meets the eye.

Her mesmerizing curves, her timeless beauty…

I get it, I’m not supposed to be falling for her.

But when I see her tending to the horses on my ranch,

Listening to my employees with compassion,

Solving everyone’s problems…

I realize I need her to solve my biggest problem – her!

God…I love the woman…

But she’s got secrets of her own.

Secrets that involve a stalker…

Or is it her crazy ex?

I can see it in her eyes – the hurt, the fear, the vulnerability.

And I’m going to protect her, save her, claim her –

Her and the baby growing inside her!

She was supposed to be just a job. A paycheck. Now she’s his destiny.

Talia hadn’t planned on dying today. But accidentally defying the Supernatural Council isn’t exactly a wise life plan. When she did her duty and touched a bloody knife to determine guilt or innocence, her vision seemed…off. So was Councilman Gideon’s rush to declare a shivering child guilty of murder.

Now Talia’s trying to lose herself in the West Virginia mountains with the child in tow. And the mercenary on their tail has an uncanny ability to find them, no matter how far they run.

Kirin’s dragon-shifter senses make him the most sought-after bounty hunter in these parts. But something about this job smells…wrong. And when he finally gets his hands on the fugitive, he gets the surprise of his nearly three-hundred-year life. The fragile, determined woman in his arms is the mate he’d given up all hope of finding.

Now instead of breathing down her neck, he’s bound to protect her at all costs. But if they can’t figure out who wants this child dead—and why—they could all wind up sharing the same grave.

Note: The Dragon’s Psychic is the first of a three-book series. Each book will have a complete HEA romance, connected with a continuing plot that will conclude with book 3.

Between The Tackles is a standalone, full-length bad boy sports romance novel. There is NO cliffhanger, NO cheating, and a guaranteed happy ending!

Irresistible desire and thrilling suspense combine in this electrifying new Argeneau novel from New York Times bestselling author Lynsay Sands.

For close to three thousand years the imposing, impossibly handsome Santo Notte has fought in armies across the world and battled his own, more personal enemies. Of all the places he might expect to encounter his life mate, a quiet corner of upstate New York doesn’t seem likely. But as soon as he makes contact with history professor Petronella Stone, while hunting down a suspected rogue immortal, he knows that she will be the greatest adventure of his eternal life.

He expects her to be surprised, confused, even overwhelmed. What he doesn’t expect is that Pet has a secret history of her own. There’s no mistaking the mind-blowing, mutual pleasure they share. But as Pet struggles to protect her nephew from a danger lurking too close to home, Santo realizes there’s another threat to her safety—him. And claiming their passionate future will be impossible until he leaves his past behind, forever…

We're finally waking up from the nightmare.

The Lost Breeds have been through Hell and back, and finally, life is slowing down.

In the stillness, I realize that something is missing.

All the other guys in the MC have women in their corner to kiss their wounds and help them heal.

It's my damn turn.

I see her on a busy New York City street and know without a doubt--she's the one.

She's everything a man like me dreams of.

But she's out of my league.

Wayyyy out of it.

A billionaire by birth.

Lucky for her, I'm willing to be whatever she needs, what keeps her up late at night and drags her from sleep with yearning.

This girl has no clue what's about to hit her.

Me. Full force with the desire to be deeply connected and fully devoted for the first time ever.

Things are changing too fast to keep up.

She'll be my rock when it all falls apart.

And she doesn't even know me yet.

I don't play dirty, I play to win.

I went to see my childhood idol but instead I saw the girl I could never forget. People always say there's always one that got away, and for me that was Natalie. We spent one amazing summer together but then I never saw her again ... until now.

"Good girls love bad boys always seemed like such a cliche saying to me."
From the moment I saw him on my doorstep I knew I was his, whether I wanted to or not. Our time together was sinfully sweet but also short, as we both knew it had to come to an end. Only for me, it was just the beginning, as after Chris left I found out I'm pregnant with his child.

This is a full-length novel. It is a standalone so you don't have to read the series in order to understand it. There is NO cliffhanger, NO cheating, and a guaranteed happy ending!

"A well-rounded novel that comes alive with her engaging plot and prose, placing Guha comfortably in a genre dominated by the likes of Tom Clancy, Robert Ludlum, and John le Carre." - Recommended by the US Review of Books
