L. T. Marshall

Emma Anderson has everything in her life worked out. She has a perfect job in a Manhattan empire, allowing her to live a quiet, organized, and safe existence—a necessity after a childhood filled with abuse. She’s worked hard to get where she is, and she’s just landed an amazing promotion. There’s just one problem: the promotion comes with a boss that could derail everything she thought she needed in her life. Jake Carrero, billionaire playboy.

As their lives become more and more intertwined, the lines blur and the careful walls Emma has built begin to crumble.

Alexis Anneb

The Rogue Series 1: The Rogue Alpha

The Rogue Series 1: The Rogue Alpha

Gemma Rue

“You pack wolves all fight the same,” I mock. He’s tall, strong, and an alpha. Even Rogues know not to fight an Alpha. But I’m no regular Rogue.

“Is that so?” His muscles strain against his shirt.

My gaze traces his body. I linger a moment too long. A fist pushes against me. I grab his wrist. We fall with a thud. Our bodies pressed together.

“If you wanted me on top of you, all you had to do was ask.”

When fate forces a rogue and alpha together, will they be able to set aside their differences and give love a chance?

Falling for a Cowboy

Falling for a Cowboy

Jeni Rae D

Five years ago, my wife left my two-year-old son and me in the middle of the night, breaking my heart. After that, I vowed to friends and family that I’d never fall in love again. I would only focus on raising my autistic son and working on my horse ranch. That was until Josie moved to my town, changing my life forever. Being stubborn, I did everything I could not to let my ticker control me and my thinking process. But then I saw Josie daily at the diner she worked at, and I became jealous whenever Jack, the town’s wannabe cowboy, tried to strike up a relationship with her. Then, one night, my life forever changed when I allowed a door to open and gave Josie something I said I’d never give—my ticker.
