Traveling nurse Rhys Wild knows the consequences of choices. After she lost the most important people in her life, she has vowed to herself to never make the decision to fall in love. The only way to cope is to keep moving, to stay busy. To stop means to think. To feel. And feeling is a luxury she cannot afford. Unless it’s Random Day. The stranger on the plane ride home is the perfect distraction from her anguished thoughts about returning to the one place that will make her face everything she’s left behind. It was supposed to be a random bit of fun.

As the world's most renowned heart surgeon, I accomplished every dream I had. I did my humanitarian work in South Africa, conducted groundbreaking research with my clinic, and made a difference every single day. The best part? The way my father looked at me.....like he'd never been more proud. But when my patience dies on the table, I lose everything. And I mean everything. My wife left me. I lost my practice. And worst of all...I lost myself. I'll never be able to reclaim everything I lost, nor do I want to. Until I meet Sicily...and she refuses to accept no for an answer.

He is my Hades. I’d played the role of a goddess, bound and chained for the service of mortals. He freed me. He freed me, unchained me and taken me to his underworld, his dark realm where he’d brought out all my forbidden and secret desires. And now I’m his.

Why did I ever think Emerson and I were a good idea? She's my assistant, so I have to see her every day. We get along, for the most part, but there's subtle hostility between us both. Being on my own is better. It makes far more sense. Until something terrible happens, something I didn't see coming, and it's those moments of tragedy that change you forever. I've changed...and I can never go back.

Emmának és ikeröccseinek az a szerencséjük, hogy Gerry nagybácsikájuk kísértetiesen hasonlít Gerald Durrellre. Elég az hozzá, hogy Gerry bácsi a kertjükben landol Belladonna nevű léghajójával, és magával viszi a három gyereket, hogy felkutassák Gerry bátyját, aki két éve indult el afrikai tanulmányútra, de azóta nem adott hírt magáról. A keresésből aztán világ körüli utazás lesz. Gerald Durrell, a biológus szépíró rengeteg érdekes tudnivalót lop az izgalmas és humoros történetbe.

Joelle Sommers is very good at her job as a PI and bail recovery agent, but she’s definitely out of her element when she arrests sexy businessman Dean Colter in a case of mistaken identity. Because unlike her usual fugitives, Dean is cooperative, accommodating, and hot as sin...and not at all guilty as charged. But this bad boy isn’t so innocent either, and she finds it increasingly hard to resist his seductive charm, and their mutual attraction.

Now that Derek knows the truth, everything is out in the open. He still wants to be with me. But I’m afraid this is temporary. I’m afraid he’ll change his mind. I’m afraid he’ll realize he’s not up for the task. And I’ll lose both him...and my job.

I have a secret that I've never told Derek, simply because it's something I never share with anyone. He has his secrets, I have mine. But when a late night takes an unexpected turn, I realize the truth will have to come out. Until he figures it out on his own...and that makes it a million times worse.

Gerry bácsi különös időutazásra hívja gyerek-barátait, 66 - 245 millió évvel ezelőttre, amikor a Földön még a hatalmas - és néha félelmetes - dinoszauruszok éltek. Azért vezeti Emmát, Konrádot és Ivánt ebbe a korba, mert a dinoszauruszokat komoly veszély fenyegeti: a 20. századból megérkezett hozzájuk Lord Irtó Artúr, a vandál vadász, és fegyverhordozója, a rovott múltú Betonkéz. Hőseink a dinoszauruszok segítségével szeretnék megfékezni őket, hogy nyugodt lelkiismerettel térhessenek vissza a jelenbe.

A Legsötétebb Peruból jött medve legeslegújabb kalandjai is megfelel a híres-neves Paddington-hagyományoknak: megmosolyogtató, pergő cselekményű, kedves, váratlan fordulatokkal teli mesék fűzére, amely nem mentes a megszokott bond-i társadalomkritikától sem. Bár Paddington láthatóan el-eltéved a mindennapi élet útvesztőiben, valójában a vele kapcsolatba lépők sem bizonyulnak minden esetben nálánál talpraesettebbnek.

I just landed my dream job as an editor at the esteemed publisher Astra Books, and my client is the infamous sci-fi writer Derek Hamilton. The greatest writer of our generation - in my opinion. But it's not as wonderful as I thought it would be. I can't get this guy to respond to my emails, texts, or phone calls. Whenever I get him on the phone, he's a jerk that hangs up on me. He's a pain in the you-know-where. Yes, he's gorgeous...but he makes my life a living hell.

Valerie got between us just like I feared she would. And completely destroyed me. But I believe Deacon and I can make it work, that I can have the family I've always wanted...if I just have faith.

I'm the daughter of heroes. I've trained my entire life to take my mother's place as guardian of the world. I've prepared myself for being mated to four dragon shifters. But nothing could prepare me for this. I'm not mated to four men, but five. The Death Goddess has chosen her own champion and demands I take him as my mate, too. If I refuse? She'll unleash the realm of the dead upon my world.

I finally got Valerie to give Deacon what he wants. To move to the city so the three of them can be together. I just have to give her one thing: a penthouse in my building. That means I'll have to see her, talk to her, and worst of all, assist her. But no matter how difficult she is, her being here means Derek will be here...and that makes it all worth it.

Deacon Hamilton was supposed to be just a client. And I don't date clients. Well, not anymore. But I've fallen in love with his son, fallen in love with our trips to the cabin...and now I can't be with Tucker anymore. Not when Deacon is the man I want. So I'm just going to tell him. And hope for the best.
