Under His Skin

Under His Skin

Vivienne Wren

“He held the cupcake over the trash like it was a threat.” Hailey should hate Heath Cavanaugh for that. She does hate him. Which makes the way her pulse jumps when he looks at her… deeply inconvenient. Before romance gets anywhere near her life, Hailey’s just trying to be a good nanny to sweet, sand-covered Elsie and survive her boss’s mood swings. Then Heath starts hovering at bedtime, showing up at the splash pad in dress clothes, and acting personally offended that Hailey gave her number to a gorgeous, golden-retriever man named Wes. 🙃 Heath is bossy, blunt, and allergic to fun. He also catches Elsie when she launches herself at him, tells ridiculous stories that make her howl with laughter, and watches Hailey like he’s memorizing her. You know that look. Hailey flirts with Wes at the park because she’s allowed to date like a normal woman, thanks. Heath responds by policing her cupcakes, her plans, and her boundaries… until Elsie literally forces them to hug goodnight. And right when Hailey thinks she’s finally getting space, she rushes upstairs after her date and finds Elsie’s bed empty.

Dragon’s Melody

Dragon’s Melody

Ophelia Bell

“You make it sound so formal,” she said. “Like I won’t actually be your sex slave.”

It was just a simple job transfer interview, but it was far from simple.

After the most mind-blowing ‘interview’ of Melody’s life, she signs a contract with a gorgeous man named Skye, who she believes isn't really human. Neither is his assistant. The sweet, blond Garen is every bit as enticing as his boss. He's even more inhumanly gorgeous and just as hungry for what Melody has to offer.

And she's supposed to work for these two?

Within the first week, everything goes south when she finds herself falling for both elusive men and their otherworldly charms. In spite of the unconventionally intimate ‘position’ she now holds, Melody never considered the possibility of love. She rejected romance for most of her life, because love was her enemy. Love left her mother wanting and left Melody nothing but loneliness for two decades.

The realization that she has to choose between two men she loves beyond all understanding sends her running scared. She refuses to choose, but the only other option is to lose them both and risk even worse heartbreak. Will she follow her heart or lose it all?

Garen and Skye follow, too consumed by love to do anything but compromise for Melody's sake. They forsake their own complicated romance in Melody’s favor, believing only one of them can have her, but she is the one who is burdened with the final choice.

Once in their embrace, she makes her choice—the choice Fate intended all along.

Jane Anne

Louise believes in plans, payback, and perfect timing. Love is not on the list. When a forgotten promise resurfaces in the form of Adam, her movie-star ex, Louise decides it’s finally time to even the score. A fake engagement feels like the ideal setup for public embarrassment and long-overdue closure. The problem is Adam refuses to play the villain. He’s charming, steady, and far too good at reading between the lines. As pretend moments start to feel real, old memories soften and new sparks fly. Louise must decide whether revenge still fits, or if the love that waited patiently all along deserves a rewrite.

Danni D

“Have I told you how much I appreciate you letting my dad stay with us after Dianne left?” I ask Alex, idly tracing shapes on his bare back.

“You have,” he replies. “But I won’t say no to you showing me again just how much you appreciate me,” he teases.

In the aftermath of her mother's abandonment, Ariel has more important things to worry about than Dianne finding her fated mate. Her father is in mourning, her position is working her into the dirt, and everyone is preparing for Mating Weekend—which she has to host. Can she handle it? Honestly, Ariel isn’t sure, but she’s going to try. Tensions rise as her duties begin to close in on her, but help comes in the form of her mate and dear friends coming together to give her a much needed break. A heartwarming reunion, fun surprises, and new adventures await.

We spoke only one language. Sex.

He had me by the hair, my body taut in his other arm. I was so wet already I didn’t know if I could take it if he slid inside me.

He bent me over the desk aggressively, but that caused my libido to peak even further. I felt him massaging his hard length against my ass.

I sighed with desire. Needing him. Right here. Right now...
