She doesn't have the time for romance, no matter how handsome the new temporary pediatrics doctor is. She definitely doesn't have time for the puppy her daughter desperately wants.

The twos just got a lot more terrible. Ian had enough trouble trying to write for a living and keep up with his daughter, Lucy, even before she started shifting into a squirrel. Now that she's turning two and breathing fire? All bets are off.

Gabriel Boulder, filthy rich, powerful beyond belief, and still as disgustingly handsome as he was seven years ago.

Falling in love with a Parker must be genetic. It's the only way Delilah Ridgefield can make sense of the mess that is her life. Some other things that are genetic? The hazel eyes she shares with her mom, the need to care for others that she gets from her dad, and her father's dementia diagnosis, which brings him back into her life after years of radio silence.

Claire is the epitome of a good girl. She's cute, smart, demure—and my student and teaching assistant for the semester. Of course, I didn't know the latter when we first met at The Velvet Rooms, an elusive kink club for the richest of the rich. I was looking for a little plaything, she was looking for a Master—and we both felt like we found the perfect match in each other. Learning that she's a virgin already derailed my plans for the night, but fate had an even bigger twist waiting for us.

Never did I think a girl like Gretchen Hawthorne would be the woman of my dreams. She is stubborn, irritating, and can piss me off at the drop of a hat. But she is also sweet and has a vulnerability about her that she doesn't allow many to see. She let me in for a split second, and what I found was even more than I had bargained for. Her façade is nothing more than a mask to hide her fears. One wild night in the barn at my cousin's house, and I'm hooked.

I wasn't looking for love, especially not in the small mountain town where my brothers and I relocated our security firm. One look at my River of Dreams was all it took to know I'd found the other half of my soul. She wasn't ready for me or my crazy family, so I offered friendship.

On the outside, I was nothing more than the fun-loving guy that made everyone laugh. But on the inside, there was more hate than I knew how to control. No one knew the life I'd led; I hid my demons well. But even in all the anger and pain, there was one spark of sweetness. She was younger than me, so innocent, and worst of all, my best friend's little sister. Grace was off limits. Wanting her led to the possibility of losing the only true family I'd had left.

I was the ultimate bachelor. I enjoyed my wild life, the late nights, and the fact that I had no commitments. My job and my freedom were all I needed. Or so I thought. Chloe was sweet and kind, and the way she got so flustered in my presence was adorable. That smile of hers did things to a man. And her laugh? It was infectious. She had this gravitating pull that was irresistible.

One night was all it took to seal our fate. Too bad it took another six weeks of battling my demons and denying the attraction between us to see exactly what she was. My future. I tried to keep my distance, however, living in a small town didn't help my plight. She was everywhere, throwing sass in my direction like it was her job. It pissed me off, yet turned me on at the same time. Then she uttered two words which altered the course of our lives forever. "I'm pregnant."

Ice Queen. That's Dr. Tiffany Hart's nickname in the hospital, but when she meets red-hot new hire Dr. Ethan Clark she loses her cool. He's arrogant, annoying, and stupidly handsome. That's okay.

Online dating in your thirties will make even the most optimistic person skeptical.

Eyes so blue I swear it's like looking at the turquoise waters of the Greek Isles. Those are the first memories I have of Kyra. For years I stood on the sidelines, watching and waiting for my perfect chance. Wanting her so badly, consumes my every thought. There are so many things I thought I knew. But the truth is . . . I don't know the real Kyra. But what I do know is that I will stop at nothing to know her. I am mesmerized by her beauty, captured by her smile, and warmed by the love she has for her Gran.

Emory doesn't think what we have is real . . . that I'm merely pretending to be her boyfriend to help her out of a delicate situation. What she doesn't know is she's been in my crosshairs since the day I staked my claim in the frozen food aisle of our small-town grocery store. However, I've got secrets. Huge ones, the national security kind that threaten to destroy us before we can begin. There's one option: make her fall in love with me before the walls of deception crumble around us.

Going undercover to reveal naughty secrets was my dream job. A dangerous adventure—one that got me severely punished. He's not telling me what he plans to do with me.

This time, I need to ignore my desire and escape. Then he tells me the only way off this island is as his wife.

A chance encounter with two members from a local MC changed my life, but not in a good way. At least, not at first. After being tortured because of who my biological father was, a man I'd only met a handful of times, the president of the club gave me two choices. Either end up in the ground or become a prospect for the Knights Corruption. My decision was a no brainer. I fought alongside them in a war against a rival club, teetering between life and death multiple times, but I wouldn't change a thing because belonging to the KCMC allowed me to meet the love of my life.
