Sweet Temptation

Sweet Temptation

Merra Gischan

This stunning woman with her mesmerizing eyes. She’s lucky her friend arrived, or else I might have taken her straight to bed, making her moan and plead. A not so gentle reminder for her to lock her door, especially when she is planning on baking barely dressed.

Without a doubt, she's what I'd desirably refer to as my sweet temptation.

Yes, Mr Knight

Yes, Mr Knight

Natalie Roche

“You’ve been a good girl all your life, Jamie.”

My heart was pounding, and he had me totally lost for words.

“Why don’t you do yourself a favor and allow the Bad Girl to come out and play? I will pleasure her like she’s never been pleasured before.”

Mason Knight. A billionaire heartthrob with looks that make women stop and stare as he walks by. Jamie had always told herself she’d never be one of “those” women who fell for her boss. But then, she’d never had someone like Mason set his sights on her…

Sumner Comes First

Sumner Comes First

Vivienne Wren

Sumner arrives at the lake house determined to keep her heart locked tight. This summer is about fixing her life, not reopening old wounds. Then Corbin walks in with that familiar grin and zero respect for emotional safety plans. He is her brother’s best friend, her first crush, and the mistake she never quite forgot. Confined spaces, shared memories, and long summer nights stir feelings she swears are buried. Corbin challenges every rule she makes, while Sumner fights the pull between comfort and chaos. Old sparks crackle with new heat, and resisting him starts to feel like the hardest rule she has ever made. Falling again feels reckless… but what if it is exactly what she needs?

The Irish Syndicate Book 1: Our Wicked Cravings

M. L. Smith

"You have always been mine.”

Mina never expected to see her stepbrother again—let alone like this. But when she steps into a secretive club, she walks straight into the arms of the one man who's been watching from the shadows… and waiting to make her his. Ronan, the ruthless head of Boston’s crime syndicate, doesn’t just want her—he owns her now. Years of silent obsession have built to this moment, and he won’t let anything—or anyone—stand between them. As enemies circle and the syndicate teeters on the edge, one thing’s clear: he’s not letting her go, no matter how dark things get.

The Drake Twins

The Drake Twins

Rowan Cody

They used to make her life miserable—every taunt, every smirk, every stolen moment meant to break her down. But growing up didn’t erase the magnetic pull she’s always felt toward the Drake twins. Now, seven years later, they’re back in her world—older, darker, and twice as tempting. Their arrogance is still there, but so is something new flickering behind those wicked eyes. Desire. Challenge. A dangerous game she swore she’d never play again. She tells herself she should walk away, but the truth is she’s never been good at resisting them—or the delicious kind of chaos they bring.

Stockholm Syndrome

Stockholm Syndrome

Vivienne Wren

“You’re looking for good in a bad man. That’s a dangerous thing to do.”

Zara is trapped, tied, and desperate to escape. The men holding her are ruthless, but it’s their leader who unsettles her most. He’s sharp, cold, unreadable—and the only one she can’t look away from. Every stolen glance chips at her resolve, every dangerous word pulls her deeper into the storm. She knows it’s reckless to search for softness in someone built of shadows, but her heart won’t listen. The lines between fear and longing blur until she can’t tell where danger ends and desire begins. Survival demands distance, yet every moment close to him feels like a secret she’s not ready to give up. Is she falling for her captor—or is she just losing herself?

Grayson

Her: The fat girl nervously starting her senior year at a new school.

Him: The brooding football jock who takes the seat next to her.

The danger escalates when Nataly learns he is not just a criminal on the run, but the crime boss of a ruthless organization. Cold, lethal, and covered in death-themed tattoos, he should be everything she fears. Yet under his control, she feels safer than ever before.

Dirty Money Book 1: The Million Dollar Virgin

Dirty Money Book 1: The Million Dollar Virgin

Rebekah Halt

Sloane Heathrow was never supposed to apply. It was a joke — a late-night click on a dark web ad offering one million dollars for one virgin. But when a black-and-gold email lands in her inbox with an interview time and location, the joke stops being funny. The offer is real. The contract is binding. And the men behind it are hidden, impossibly wealthy, and completely untouchable. Suddenly, Sloane is pulled into a world built on luxury, secrecy, and control, where every rule is carefully designed to keep her in line. What begins as a bold decision quickly becomes something far more dangerous as boundaries blur, emotions deepen, and the arrangement becomes harder to escape than she ever expected.

Thirty days.

Three men.

One secret she can never tell.

Zainab Sambo

“What are you willing to do to get what you want, Ms. Hart?”

I looked up at him, those stormy grey eyes devoid of emotion. My heart pounded in my chest, my throat dry with fear. He was offering me everything I needed so desperately. But what would it cost me?

“I won’t ask again.”

I closed my eyes and signed away my soul to the most dangerous man in England.

“Anything.”

Mason Campbell is cold, hard, and unapologetic. He’s envied by men and wanted by women. Lauren Hart has just landed a job as his assistant and is constantly on the receiving end of his hatred. Unfortunately, Mason doesn’t have eyes for anyone but Lauren and is about to make her an offer she can’t refuse.

Jen Cooper

Four friends head into summer break thinking they’ve signed up for sunshine, freedom, and carefree fun. But one cabin, one bed, and three weeks together spark something none of them planned.

Once the summer ends, reality looms, but their hearts and bodies can’t seem to let go of what they discovered. Friendship blurs into passion, and passion dares to feel like something more. Is this just a fleeting summer escape, or are they building something that could outlast the season?
