Olivia Reynolds lives a sheltered life. The daughter of the leader of their small community, she is treated like a princess, never allowed beyond the safety of the walls. When her father decides she must marry, she chooses the man she has secretly lusted after ever since she first laid eyes on him: Dane Mitchell. One of her father’s best men, Dane is as lethal as he is attractive, and Olivia is thrilled at the thought of being at his side. Dane doesn’t want to be forced into marriage. He is a soldier and a fighter and has a bigger purpose in life.

Bad boys have never been my thing. I’ve seen firsthand the kind of devastation they can cause. That’s why I go for safe. Predictable. Guys who will take whatever I’m willing to give. That way, I always have the upper hand, ensuring that my heart remains unscathed. There is only one problem. None of those men have ever made my heart beat faster, or made me feel out of control. That is, until him.

Some women might find it flattering, being asked out over and over again by a man determined to have you. But not me. Not that the man in question isn’t sexy as sin, funny as hell, and charming as they get. Because he is. But sometimes you just can’t allow yourself to be interested in someone for other reasons, other variables. This is one of those times. Saxon Tate is my best friend’s ex-boyfriend. He cheated on her. He could possibly cheat again. That's three strikes.

It always happens when you least suspect it. Love. The chemistry. The pull. Even when you don’t want it to. Timing - it’s a bitch. And then you have to make a choice. Do you regret what is, or what isn’t? Because when love’s involved, there’s always regret. And my story is no exception.

Finally, I had a fresh start. I knew no one. I could be anyone, or so I thought. I wanted to be invisible, to blend into the background. But it turned out keeping my secret wasn’t as easy as I thought it would be. Enter Grayson Mills. When Grayson noticed me, so did everyone else. He wanted me - bad. And what Grayson wanted, he usually got.

Moving in with my half-brother Xander, I had no idea what to expect. But nothing could have prepared me for this. My brother's friends are wild, protective, secretive, always around. And drop dead gorgeous. Out of all of them, there's something about Reid Knox. Brooding, temperamental, guarded... And I want him more than anything I have ever wanted in my life.

On a random night out with her girlfriends, Taye experiences something she hasn’t before. Instant attraction. Between vodkas and dance moves she probably shouldn't be doing in public, never mind on a podium, she meets him. She’s never had a one night stand before, and to have one is on her list of things to experience in her life. Not only that, but the chemistry is off the charts. Decision made. She’s going home with this man, and she’s not going to regret it when she leaves him in the morning. Or at least that’s what she thinks.

They told me not to get involved with him because he had a bad reputation. I didn’t listen. Why? Maybe it was those eyes. Most probably it was his body. Or maybe it was his quick wit, easy charm, and the way he made me feel so at ease - like I was perfect just the way I am, flaws and all. I realize now that he wanted me to feel that way, so I’d accept him, just the way he was. He wanted to have his cake and eat it too. He wanted a game, so I gave him one. Checkmate.

Erin Dawson had the perfect life growing up in a perfect home with a perfect family. But after learning that the man she’s called “dad” her whole life isn’t her biological father, Erin is determined to find the man who is. Erin finds her father, but begins questioning if her mom had been right all along to keep this information buried. It turns out he is the president of a motorcycle club. Despite getting what she wants and finding her biological father, it’s the slightly older, much rougher but incredibly sexy biker Ace who catches Erin’s eye. 

It was a typical PI gig: track down the client’s newly discovered half sister. For ex-cop Seth Decker, finding Cara Ward was the easy part. Walking away from the sexy schoolteacher is going to be a whole different story.
