When Maren Casey’s best friend was kidnapped and held for ransom, one name came to mind. She just wasn’t sure her high school sweetheart would want to see her again, not after the way things ended between them.

Type A attorney Fiona Quinn has one goal left to accomplish before turning 30: A big, fairy tale wedding. All she needs is a groom. So what if she’s never been in love — or even lust — before? She’s confident she can solve the problem the way she always does, with spreadsheets and an action plan. When a family emergency brings bad boy Max Devlin swaggering back into town — with his cocky grin, tattoos, and wanderlust — Fiona has to remind herself that he’s as unsuitable as it gets.

In an effort to make things right the best way he can, he ends up falling for the one person on the planet he never should have.

Dani has her future all planned out. She's not the type to fall for a bad boy, no matter how panty-melting his grin is or how shamelessly he flirts. But Damon draws her in and slowly, she uncovers the secrets he hides: underneath his arrogance lies a lonely soul, his flirting smile masks despair. Damon arrives in Dani's life against his will. His father insisted he change high schools right in his senior year. He can't wait to turn 18 and be in charge of his own life. He knows he should stay away from Dani, but she's so lovely he just can't keep himself from gravitating around her.

Love is not a game Brick Swift wants to play again. Heartbreaking memories have a hold on his heart. The respected sport agent’s clients have become the sole recipients of his time and attention.

One chance meeting changes life’s direction and ignites a fire that lights the way.

I watched her. I knew I shouldn't. It was a mistake. Wrong. Forbidden. A glimpse of heaven before a depraved angel led me to hell. One email was all it would take to end the torture. A simple email, dropping Eden Wilder from my class and my life. But I couldn't do it. I was selfish—taking any bit of her I could.

It’s Ford and Lena’s destination wedding, and every professional hockey player joining them for the big day is ready to let loose. But, between vacation hook-ups, one player falling into bed with the boss, and a surprise guest at the resort, there’s more action - and complications - than any of them could have predicted.

Road captain of the Devil's Dust Motorcycle Club, Bobby has the scars to prove just how dangerous his life is. He gives the world he knows hell and loves every moment of it. Wearing a panty-dropping grin along the way, his fierce life has never been a problem for him, until her. Jessica is the only female who has him distracted in his game. After taking him to bed, she's the only woman to tell him to take a hike. Waking with her gone, he can't resist her pull.

I might still carry my V-card, but I know exactly what I want in a man. Smart, charming and oh-so-skilled. Too bad I haven't found him yet. But maybe he's found me. Because when my charming, laid-back next-door neighbor discovers a secret list I keep, he volunteers to work through every single item on it. Including the last one - at the end, we walk away and stay friends. I say yes to his offer, and that's when I discover another side to him. A side I adore. A side I crave. He's commanding, intense, and everything I've ever wanted.

I thought I was done with Hollywood. Done with acting. Done with scandal. Done with all the lies this industry thrives on. Then I met him...Jude Fisher. A man who doesn’t accept no and demands more from me than I know how to give. It started out as a way to prepare for the role of a lifetime. But as it gets closer and closer to the audition, I don’t want our scenes to end. He makes me want him when I thought I had built an impenetrable wall around my heart. He makes me trust him when I thought there was no one left in our industry to trust. But it’s all just an act...right? It’s all just for the callback.

When my cousin Jax bails me out after a bar fight, I head to his middle-of-nowhere cabin. I don't mind - I was made to be a mountain man. I’m not the only person staying at Jax’s place. His wife’s cousin, Honor, is here too. Suddenly this mountain is looking a hell of a lot better. When Honor tells me her life is complicated it’s the understatement of the century. Besides having a tender heart and the face of an angel, she’s a sister-wife, on the run from her ex, desperate to give her children a better life.

The night I meet Stella, everything changes. Somehow in the course of an evening, this sexy city girl not only gets my mountain man c*ck, but she captures my heart. I have to have her. But the next day, it all comes to a crashing halt. Literally. My life isn’t just mine anymore - now I have my brother’s babies to think about. Our lives were already going in different directions...I have to show her this mountain is the place she belongs.

Being the king of the Devil's Dust and surrounded by easy women was his everyday...until having his heart broken rooted him to the bottom of a whiskey bottle. Heartbroken and drowning in lost memories, he's unsure of the direction of his life when the answer - consisting of a terrified Mexican girl - nearly knocks him off his feet. He sees Anahi, and he wants her. But she may come with more baggage than Bull is ready for.

I survived the first semester and, despite Dean Belmont's agenda and the Celestial Council's misogynistic belief that women are the weaker sex and incapable of harnessing power, I showed them how wrong they are. The Plus One taunting has ended, and instead of disdain, the looks being thrown at me heading into the second semester are wary and confused.
Doesn't matter. After the explosion I caused during the end of the semester skills test, I'll probably be expelled.

Me: six foot five, 250 pounds, collegiate football player. Protected by my pint-sized girlfriend. Comical. Ridiculous. Broken. She tackled my heart, but they want the rest of me.

Knox Wilder isn’t what he seems, and while I’m supposed to be the one seducing him, he’s the one fulfilling the filthy fantasies I keep hidden from myself. Working undercover doesn’t come without risk, but there are some benefits. I can sleep with Knox without guilt. It’s all for God and country, and dang it if I’m not a patriot.

Dixie met Mary in a bar in the middle of nowhere. He knew the moment she served him “whatever the hell she wanted to” that she was the one. That day, he takes her from her abusive life and gives her everything she’s ever wanted. For thirty-one years, they’re married. For thirty-one years, he worships the ground she walks on. For thirty-one years, she makes him the happiest man on the planet.

Mari Marcosa always knew she would die young, so being left to bleed out on a warehouse floor is no shock to her. But as the blood seeps from her body, her thoughts aren’t of the Marcosa empire she's ruled for years, or the city she's given everything to protect. It's on the three men who’ve stood by her side:

Everyone born and raised in Sammy Jo Knox's small country town had never left. They made their life there. Got married, had kids, lived in the same houses. When Sammy Jo was a little girl she began dreaming of something bigger. Brighter. The day Hale Christopher Jude III walked into the bakery she worked at, she knew he was it. That part of life she was missing. He smelled of foreign places and exciting things. What Sammy Jo didn't realize was things that appear perfect...aren't.

It all comes down to this. Mari Marcosa's family—the three men who are her very world—is back together. She won’t let anything tear them apart. Not again. May God have mercy on her enemies. Because she won’t.
