Against my better judgment, I’m her hero now.

I couldn’t go back to the military after my injury. My friends and I were at a club when I stepped in to save a girl from her crazy ex. The next thing I knew, I agreed to be her fake husband. Now all I have to do is spend her money and pretend to be married to her. It’s a sweet deal, but I’m having a hard time keeping my mind off her sweet ass. We’re only pretending. We’re not really married. We’re not even having sex. Yet. It’s only a matter of time. But, I sure as hell can’t afford to fall in love with a rich girl like her. Her evil ex returns, but he has no idea who he’s messing with.

It may have started out as pretend, but I will make that girl mine, body and soul.

I’m all about trying new things. Especially losing my virginity.

I came to Pine Grove looking for a new start. Instead, I found Dawson Spark.

He’s the kind of man I used to stay far away from. Handsome, cocky, and clearly rich, I can’t pretend like I’m not intimidated when he invites me back to his house. But I’m still a virgin. I’ve never done anything like this before.

I figure losing my virginity to Dawson will be perfect. He’s handsome, clearly experience, and very willing. That’s all I really need to get it over with, right? Except the moment he touches me, I know I’m in way too deep. That thrill up my spine, that growl in my ear…

Now I know why people can get addicted in love.

I know this won’t be a one-time thing. I’m a part of his world now, and Dawson demands a lot more than I ever thought I had.

Giving him my virginity was the easy part. It’s giving him everything else that’s going to be hard…

Welcome to Pine Grove, the darkest and dirtiest little small town in America!

The bad boy CEO always gets who he wants, especially on Valentine’s Day.

First a box of chocolates mysteriously appears at my door, followed by a bottle of perfume and a beautiful necklace.

Then some expensive lingerie comes wrapped with a big pink bow.

Finally a card arrives which simply says ‘you’re mine, be ready at seven.’

I don’t know what makes me do it but I’m ready and waiting at 6:55.

There’s a knock at my door, three short raps that send tingles down my spine.

My hand trembling, I open the door and my jaw drops. It’s my filthy rich boss and he means business.

I always get what I want. Every time. But not with her.

The beautiful woman my father forced on me through our billion-dollar firm has curves that make me ache.

Never in my short life did I imagine falling for her. Office romances are forbidden in my company. But she’s a rule breaker. I guess I am too, but no one knows that side of me.

This single mother with brilliant business sense has a side hustle and still kicks ass at my firm daily. There’s no way in hell she’s giving in. No matter what I try.

Not even when Valentine’s rolls around. And I pull out all the stops.

Her denial has me needing her like I’ve never needed anyone else. Where this girl is concerned, I’m not asking for a friend.

I’m asking for me. For today. Tomorrow. Forever.

Jaxon Mayer knew the minute his eyes met hers that they were soul mates and would be together forever. Emily and Jax were childhood sweethearts. An insanely happy couple with a love most people never feel.

Emily Saunders wanted nothing more than to marry her gorgeous guy and have her happily ever after. Their relationship was perfect, and he was the man of her dreams.

They had even talked about an engagement, and Jaxon was planning a surprise proposal.

But life never goes as planned…

When a tragic accident occurs, everything changes, and heartbreak is inevitable.

But who will be the one left broken and shattered?

Resolution: To get back in the game or find a new one.

Hollywood stunt man Kip Rocklyn loves taking risks, using his skills to cheat death. After nature gives him a tragic dose of reality testing, he wonders if he’s just a kid refusing to grow up. But can he fit in a world where he doesn’t hurl his body through space or race a motorcycle at breakneck speeds? Would a woman’s love make it possible?

Mina Winthrop has always been a straight arrow, with strict parents she had never even considered disobeying. And she dates men who never veer off the narrow path. Trouble is none of them turn her on. Which is why she’s got a secret problem—she is still a virgin at twenty-seven. And she’s decided Kip Rocklyn is the perfect man to rid her of that.

Note: This is a standalone story.

Prince.

It is a title that some boys dream of, but as an orphan, I never thought it would happen to me. After being adopted by the wealthiest people in Qatar, I had a new life to look forward to.

Years later, my adopted parents would have a son, a true son. My father gave me the opportunity to have my own business, and I could never repay him for what he has done for me.

After a trip to Qatar to see him, I find out that he is stepping down as the king and wants me to be the new king. I know my brother is the one that should have the seat, but he is only eleven and has spoken out about not wanting to do it.

All this, and now the most beautiful woman somehow pushes her way into my life. She is tough and persistent. Two very attractive qualities in a woman.

I’m in a place of doubt and confusion and all I need is her.

When she tells me who she really is, can I still love her?

Izzy

We shouldn’t have taken the risk. We should’ve stayed just friends. Best friends. But only friends. But our hearts were foolish. I’d loved him forever. So, three years ago when he offered what I always longed for, I grabbed it with both hands. But I couldn’t hold on tight enough. The beauty of love blinded me. I didn’t see it coming. Didn’t expect to lose everything. My friend. My heart. My art. My privacy. All of them casualties of love lost.

Dawson

Every beat of my heart sang her name. She was my muse. Without her, there’d be no music. I was riding the high of fame and fortune. I had it all—status, money, her. Until the thing I’d always wanted cost me the thing I’d always needed. Love’s song drowned out all the warnings. Now she was gone. So was the music. So was my will. I was left with only silence.

What happens when two hearts sharing one beat fall out of sync? 

Sometimes, love is inescapable.

Snuggle up, relax, and prepare to fall in love as you journey through three of the most romantic tales you might ever experience!

Roses are red, violets are blue. I came to rob diamonds, but now I’m stealing her too…

I’ve spent my life taking what I want, even if it doesn’t belong to me. Stealing the infamous Whistler diamonds is supposed to be my last job before I can retire wealthy beyond imagination, and I’ve planned for everything…

Everything except for her.

Valentine is like nothing I’ve ever known before. Good, young, sweet, and alluring—with curves and an innocence far more tempting than any vault or priceless art. I didn’t plan on her, and I sure as h*ll didn’t plan on the diamonds I’m supposed to steal being draped around her neck.

…So I’m taking her too.

But when I lay my hands on the gorgeous little tease squirming against me, and with one taste of that sassy mouth, I’m lost. And when I find out she’s never been touched?

Well, that’s something else I’ll be stealing too.

I know she’s off limits. I know this breaks every one of my rules. I know I don’t give a damn about any of that.

Claiming her cherry is going to be the sweetest sin. But stealing her heart is going to be the greatest heist this thief ever pulled…
