In a race against time, Gray didn't allow himself to consider defeat. He refused. They couldn't lose now. Darius had to be okay. Oh God, he had to be okay. One minute and twelve seconds had passed since the guys in the compound had started collapsing, and Gray could hear Darius in his mind, calling him knucklehead in that sharp tone that demanded attention. Pull it together, focus, get the job done. So with his heart threatening to pound its way out of his rib cage, Gray let this final task become his one and only mission.

What’s better than watching my favorite team on TV? Gettin’ to see them play live in action. My family surprised me with a once-in-a-lifetime trip, so I’m gonna live it up before the snow flies and I’m frozen to the bone with no one in my bed to warm me up. Here I am in London, ready to catch the game and find a man to set my bedsheets aflame. Realizing my tickets were a scam led me to seek out the next best opportunity and boy, did I find it.

I'd finally given up on having a family of my own. Until ex-con Jake Brand walks in. He's six-foot-five of ink and muscle and the farthest thing from a family man. He's also leaving in a few weeks. So, when he offers to help out—in my restaurant and in my bed—I cave in and say yes. But I've got rules, strict ones, to keep everything between us clear: No touching. No kissing. No emotion. And the lights stay off. Always. Except, it turns out, dirty-talking Jake doesn't do rules. He busts through them one by one, and every time, he cracks another piece of the shell protecting my heart.

Every day is like a ticking time bomb. For every blissful moment in the sun, the universe punishes me with unforgiving darkness. I’m so close to the truth yet the obstacles keep piling up, the deaths keep destroying us and I’m afraid one of us will eventually succumb to this cruelty. The secrets, the lies, the deceptions are all part of my husband’s world, but the moment I chose to walk beside him, they became part of my world too. If only he would let me all the way in.

My secret is out. My entire existence is shattered, and picking myself up again proves difficult. Leaving Rose behind for a new beginning is harder than I thought, but I need to try for a more independent me with a promising future. One that doesn’t involve the infuriating yet irresistible man who challenges me at every turn. Pushing me. Protecting me. Tempting me beyond any possible resistance. This is the lie I tell myself. Making good decisions—apparently—doesn’t come easily to me and this time, I’ve gone too far. This time, I’ve made a fatal mistake.

When things go from friend zone to friends-with-benefits, can these lifelong besties handle the heat? As the NHL’s sexiest, surliest bad boy, Kyle “Henny” Henderson basically wrote the book on awkward morning-afters. But nothing prepares him for the hat trick of waking up naked, hungover, and hard as hell with his face between a luscious pair of breasts he doesn’t recognize… Because those soft, oh-so-lickable curves belong to his completely off-limits best friend. After a devastating breakup, Bex Canfield moved home to Buffalo to put her life back together, not cause another train wreck.

The devastatingly wicked princes don't just want my powers… They want my mind, body, and soul. After a brutal attack on Gaia's temple, I find myself turning to an unlikely ally for help. Only he can save me from this new threat. But past and present collide when I reunite with the very princes I once feared. They no longer want to cage me away. No, these villains are determined to see me soar… and they'll kill anyone who gets in their way. Survival won't be easy when we discover we have to travel through a forest full of unspeakable horrors and face threats we never knew existed.

He’s the grumpy captain with everything to lose. She’s the PR problem he didn’t ask for. Hockey is my life. Always has been. As captain of the team, I’ve built my career on discipline, loyalty, and laser focus. But after a scandal tanks the franchise’s image, the owner relocates us to Driftwood Cove, a small sleepy Florida beach town. New name, new strategy. And a bubbly PR consultant hired to clean up the mess. Harbor Hayes.

Brooding. Grumpy. Loyal. Those were just a few words to describe the goalie who captured my heart all those years ago in high school—Dash Bridges. I can't deny that I've always had my eye on my brother's pensive best friend and teammate. He's been there for me in ways I can't describe. So when the opportunity presented itself to go on a speed date with him, how could I say no?

Brady Vaughn is sweet, sexy, and totally into me… Too bad I don’t have time for distractions, especially the relentless football player kind. If I want to graduate next semester, I need to focus on student teaching, not on my love life. But Brady’s incredibly hard to resist. Not only is he the most gorgeous guy I’ve ever laid eyes on, he has the personality to match. He’s sweet. Attentive. Real. When he crashes my pole dancing class, swearing he’ll return every week until I give him a shot, I’m certain he’ll be the first to crack. But with each passing week, he’s melting my defenses.

One last mission. One last operation—and the stakes had never been higher. Truth be told, Darius was exhausted. He didn't want his past mingling with the life he was building with Gray and the kids, but he had no choice. They were facing their biggest threat yet, and in order to even stand a chance, Darius had to revert to the man he'd once been. He had to set aside fatherhood and love and be the grunt, the private contractor, the soldier who went deep behind enemy lines.

I'm not supposed to do this job without Boone. We may not share genes, but it's been us against the world since his mom took me in as a toddler. The rowdy O'Sullivan boys who raised all the hell that Vegas could handle. Not that all my memories are wild and make my heart race. After all, I realized I was in love with the bastard at some point, so there's been plenty of pathetic yearning and jealousy too.

She’s blonde, blue eyed and has got curves for days. A California dream us southern boys never get the chance to touch. She’s all I could ever need, want, desire, & I’ll change my whole world just to keep her in it. But when her lips meet mine, and our craving for each other pushes us further than we ever expected, will she choose us? Or could sacrificing everything for her prove to be the biggest mistake I’ve ever made?

The most epic day of my life got even better when I ran into my brother's best friend and my first crush, Jack Hale. He's still just as charismatic, charming, and larger than life. Those skills come in handy as a sports agent whose biggest client is the country's most popular football player. When I land a career-changing interview after the big game, our worlds collide in a Vegas bar. That's when our meet-cute turns into a celebration. One night. One perfect night. Until the next morning when his famous client turns infamous. A scandal to end all scandals explodes into a media nightmare.

To an outsider, I live the perfect life. Big house, elite school, fancy car, and a doting father. Too bad it’s all a lie. No one knows my secrets and no one ever will. Tucker Kingsley hates me for what I did to him two years ago and he’ll try his best to destroy me, but you can’t break what’s already broken.

Sawyers Bend has a way of hiding its secrets. But this one won’t stay buried forever. Avery Sawyer runs a successful brewery in Sawyers Bend, but the shadow of her father’s unsolved murder looms over everything. Prentice Sawyer made enemies easily, and a year after his death, no one has been brought to justice. The killer has made it clear—he’s not finished with the Sawyer family. Avery is tired of looking over her shoulder. She’s determined to find the killer and set her family free from their father’s past.

They see me as the joker. The charmer. The playboy. But it is just a mask I wear to hide the demons that dance in the dark. My life is too dangerous for me to fall in love. Until Willow Stanton landed in my lap. Literally. I knew the moment I met her that she was the forever type of girl, so I immediately drew a line and placed her on the other side of it. I told myself she was too good for me, that she deserved more. But when it comes to her, I'm weak and all it took was one night to seal our fate. I tempted the flame and now, we're both at risk of going up in flames.

I fell in love with a boy who became my everything. Keane Stone was my first love. I thought I’d grow old with him. We had a future filled with promises, until one fateful night. One tragic accident, and just like that, he slipped into a coma. For years, I clung to hope; holding on to every 'what if.' But life doesn’t stand still. Eventually, I had to learn how to live again. Grief clung to me like a second skin when Haydn Wesford came into my life. He’s a professional hockey goalie with a natural instinct to protect.

Did I mention I'm a new witch with telepathic powers? Yeah. It's a lot. Especially since every time I get near Aldronn, the commanding orc either wants to boss me around or bed me. Or boss me around while bedding me. Ugh. Why does that have to be so hot? I can never let him know! He'll be even more sinfully arrogant than he is now, and that wicked smirk of his already makes me want to scream...or kiss him. Or maybe both. Okay, it's totally both.

I hate Brendan Quinn. He’s half of the Dublin Brute/Dublin Beast enforcer twins and is suspected in all manner of violent crimes—that’s not my issue with him. Because of my father’s position in Europol, optics are everything. He background checks my friends, he forbids me to do almost anything, and he moves me all around the EU without giving my life a second thought. In the mind of Jordan Kelly, me toeing the line is a small price to pay for the important work he does weeding out organized crime to end the rule of mafia organizations.
