Meeting Him in Between

Meeting Him in Between

by Cristina C.

"Your body tells me you want me as much as I want you," he said seductively.

A sigh escaped my lips as Jeremy's hand grazed my cheek. "I want to get to know you, Laurie. You intrigue me. I want to see the woman behind this mask," he said, his voice almost pleading before he quickly regained his composure.

Laurie winds up having a sexy encounter with a man at a party, only to meet him again at a job interview. She’s determined not to work for him, but it looks like she does not have another option. “You will work for me, little kitten.”

In It to Win It

In It to Win It

by Noah Ashlee

Eight years ago, I flipped the switch on my best friend and distanced myself from the only man I’ve ever loved in order to protect my heart. Now I run his company while he spends his days collecting home runs, occasionally making time for me between games and faceless woman. The thing is, my priorities have changed, and I’m no longer interested in standing by—not anymore! I want what’s mine and I aim to take it, but if he doesn’t realize that soon, then the World Series won’t the only thing he’ll lose!

Shifting Greer's Book 1

by K. D. Cartiff

Two months ago, Greer had everything—a sharp wit, confidence to burn, and a life that fit perfectly. Now she’s hiding under a new name, in a new town, with nothing but a pair of glasses and a list of lies to keep her safe. Witness Protection was supposed to erase the night she lost her parents, but danger doesn’t fade that easily. When Kaleb starts asking the wrong questions, the world Greer built begins to crack. The past she’s desperate to bury is clawing its way back, and the shadows she ran from might be closer than ever. Can she stay hidden when her heart refuses to?

Texts to Texas

Texts to Texas

by Natalie K

Sophie has never stayed long enough to call anywhere home, always drifting before roots can take hold. Returning to her small hometown in Texas feels like stepping into a life she once left behind, full of familiar roads and watchful eyes. There, she meets two very different cowboys—one bold and charming, the kind who sweeps her into a whirlwind, and another quiet and steady, seeing her in ways no one else ever has. In a town where whispers travel fast and loyalties run deep, Sophie finds herself caught between attention, comfort, and the pull of something more meaningful. As she begins to settle, she must decide what belonging truly means—and who makes it feel real.

Marked Man

Marked Man

by Ophelia Bell

My family’s ties to a certain set of crime lords are more tangled and volatile than the wires in an IED. They’ve called on me to disarm a situation ready to explode, but in spite of all my training, I’m not sure any of us are getting out of this unscathed.

That’s especially true when I find out the black-ops mission I’ve signed up for is commanded by none other than Sadie Watts, the girl who left me in the dust so many years ago I should be over it. But I’m not, and seeing her again, especially in such close quarters, is a distraction I can’t afford.

I know what I’m out here fighting for—my brothers; my sister; the USA—but as we close in on our target, I start to wonder if it’s not her I’m fighting for too.

Accidental Brides Book 1: Draco's Bride

Accidental Brides Book 1: Draco's Bride

by Mira Matic

Jade never thought that Ivan Draco would be interested in her in any way.

After all, when they first met, she hurled water at him, and he kicked her out of his hotel, thinking the worst of her and her sister.

But now that she has something he desperately wants, he would stop at nothing to get it. The problem was that in this power game, they were not alone.

Maybe they hated each other, but they both loved and wanted the same thing.

Will this be enough to make her Draco's bride?

The Devil's Daughter

The Devil's Daughter

by Ophelia Bell

I never imagined myself as a pawn in a dangerous game between two crime lords. But that was before I discovered I’m secretly one of their daughters, and suddenly I’m not just a girl, but an asset in need of protecting.

At least two of my new guard dogs are Ben and Baz, a pair of twins I grew up with—and wow, have they grown. Not only do they handle security for Drake Stavros—the sexy, haunted billionaire whose tower I’m forced to occupy for the duration of this cartel blood feud–but they’ve gotten hotter too, brooding sentinels covered in muscles and tattoos.

Drake is supposed to be using his near-limitless resources to keep me safe, with the twins there to make sure he follows through. But I’m beginning to realize the danger I’m in isn’t limited to the world outside as desires darker than my criminal bloodlines awaken within me, threatening to undo us all.

Author’s Note: “The Devil’s Daughter” is a reverse-harem romance.
