One daring kiss with the playboy tempts the good girl, but can she tame him?

Autry Hill may be a cowboy to his boots, but he’s also gained quite the reputation as a charmer and playboy. His parents aren’t sure he’s ready to take the reins of the family’s prosperous Texas ranch, so they set up a challenge: No women or scandal for the next six months and the ranch house he grew up in is his. Easy peasy, Autry thinks. He’s already tired of late nights and romancing, until elementary school teacher Beth Cooper happens to cross his path. Suddenly Autry is losing his heart, his mind, and what’s left of his reputation.

Good girl teacher Beth Cooper is far too practical to fall for Autry Hill, even if she had a crush on him way back when. The man’s been breaking hearts since middle school. But when he becomes her unexpected champion and then they work together to help one of Beth’s troubled students who’s about to lose everything, she sees a different side of Autry – serious, compassionate, determined and dedicated. And that Autry is nearly impossible to resist. Does she need to?

I should have killed her. Instead, I kept her.

Savage
What does the son of a drug lord usually do with the assassin who tried to kill his father?
I'll tell you what they don't do.
They don't kidnap them. They don't lock them up and keep them as a pet.
But I've always been ruled by my impulses, by my need for violence and release.
Nyx Gray only has herself to blame for landing on my radar.
I didn't even know she existed...now she's all I can think about.
Her fierce eyes, her delicious curves.
The right hook that broke my nose the first time we met.
I should get rid of her, but I'm enjoying her company too much to release her back into the wild.
She'll just have to accept that she belongs to me. That she's mine.
And if it takes another broken nose...it'll be worth it.

New York Times bestselling author Janet Chapman “melds great characterization, sparkling humor, and spicy adventure” (RT Book Reviews) in this sizzling romance about a woman who suddenly inherits a business dynasty—on the condition that within three months she must marry one of the three brothers who were expected to take over.

When Willa Kent rented a cottage to the funny old man who showed up at her door in rural Maine, she never expected that Abram Sinclair would turn out to be the owner and CEO of a shipping empire. Or that he’d ask her to go to New York City to give his proxy vote for a new CEO. Or that he’d ask her to choose which of his handsome, intelligent, and very eligible bachelor grandsons should succeed him.

When Abram suddenly dies, Willa is further shocked to discover that he’s left everything to her—but only if she marries one of his grandsons within three months. Otherwise, the company will be sold at a loss to their arch enemy.

Willa flees on Abram’s yacht to think things through, but soon runs into Abram’s oldest grandson, Sam, a self-made millionaire in his own right, who finds, to his surprise, that his grandfather’s offbeat scheme is growing more attractive by the moment.

But Willa isn’t about to let Sam steal her heart until she knows his true motives. If the man wants to marry for money, then first he must fall in love.

Two men, one heart-wrenching choice.

Career-driven Dori Fisher knows better than anyone that nothing good comes from love, so having two men fighting for her affection just seems like double the problems.

To make matters worse, she’s forced to work with them in close proximity on a make-it-or-break-it business campaign. She can’t escape her undeniable attraction to them, leaving her heart pulled in two directions for two very different reasons.

If she chooses her brother’s best friend, she’ll be disowned by the only family she’s got. If she chooses her billionaire boss, she can kiss her dream job goodbye. Finally, she feels like love is worth a shot, but if she doesn’t decide soon, she’ll lose them both.

Charlotte Madsen's whole world came crashing down six months ago with the words, "I met someone else."

Thirty-seven, recently divorced, and childless. That's Charlotte when she disembarks from the plane in Getaway Bay. She wants to get away, that's for sure. She thought the best way to do that was to buy a run-down house overlooking the bay, knowing she'll need all her fixer-upper skills to get it in shape. Which is just fine. She's hoping as she overhauls the house, she'll get a life makeover too.

She was not expecting a tall, handsome man to be under the kitchen sink when she arrives at the supposedly abandoned house. She wasn't expecting to get drenched when the non-plumber twists something the wrong way. And she certainly wasn't expecting her heart to be well enough to feel anything for anyone.

But former Air Force pilot, Dawson Dane, has a charming devil-may-care personality, and Charlotte could use some carefree laughter in her life. But everything with Dawson isn't sunshine and unicorns. He's estranged from his family, though he does speak to one of his brothers. And he's never committed to anything except his career, even choosing flying over an engagement years ago.

Can Charlotte navigate the healing process as she renovates the island house? Can Dawson finally make a commitment to a woman? Or will he and Charlotte decide a relationship is just too hard?

When my father dispatches me to be sold to a ruthless mobster, I tremble at my fate in the cruel hands of one of the notorious Fortuna brothers, but I never expected to become a plaything, a toy to be used in cruel games by all three of the sons.

Dark, brilliant Carlo, savage Olympian Bruno, and cruel, enigmatic Alessio, each man has his obsessions, his dark desires, and his own outrageous demands. And they bounce me mercilessly between them.

Alone and powerless in the heart of the criminal empire, the dark Fortuna house of secrets, I know that I’m never going back home. Even after I’ve done his dirty work, my father is selling me off to a sadistic mafia prince and that will be the end of me. Traded to a man and I don’t even know who. Only that I’m going to be owned by one of three dark lords of the crime world. Which one, I’ve no idea. Does it even matter?

When I arrive on the cold tiled floor of their dark, echoing mansion, the three arrogant princes take turns to tease and taunt me. Their eyes burn into me, and their arrogant laughs make me feel like a dirty stray, a luckless, abandoned waif.

All three men of power joke about what they might do with me, and which one of them could end up getting ‘stuck’ with me. They treat me like I’m their plaything, a possesion, like they can do whatever they want with me. Each one, alone. Then two and even all three of them. Together.

Just one thing, though.

I come with dark secrets of my own. Plus, I have an agenda.

And I’m not your average mafia princess.

A prophesy that rules me.
A curse that ruins me.
A wolf shifter pack who claim I am theirs.

It wasn’t my choice to be sold to a powerful psychopath by my mother when I was a baby. It wasn’t my choice to be tortured for magic I don’t possess but on-one says no to Esoti and lives.

Except me.

There are worse things than death. Not dying for one.

In a world ruled by The Six, anyone magical is put to death, shifters are slaves and I am the lowest of the low. Until alpha wolves Alerick, Jarom and Eike capture me. The thing is, I don’t want to be anyone’s mate, or toy, or plaything.

They insist I’m anything but human, mastering my body and unleashing ancient magic hidden deep inside me.

Teach me everything.

My whole life, I’ve been a good girl. I follow rules like nobody’s business. I obey guidelines like I was born to it. Show me a line, and I’ll toe it.

I’m even a twenty-two-year-old virgin. Good is my middle name.

And then, I break one tiny little rule. Miniscule. Inconsequential.

Next thing I know, I’m trapped with an incredibly handsome stranger. He’s got eyes like cut emeralds, biceps that makes my head spin, and a smile that has me rethinking all my life choices.

We escape a bar bathroom together. We go on an impromptu date. We share the hottest kiss I’ve ever had, one that leaves me panting for more. We promise to see each other again.

Turns out, we see each other the next morning.

In my calculus class.

Which he’s teaching.

My handsome, sexy date is Professor Loveless, and we’ll be seeing each other plenty. Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday all semester.

There’s no choice but to call it off. We both have too much at stake: I could lose my scholarship, and he could lose his entire career.

But I can’t call off the way I feel.

I can’t call off the way he looks when he rolls up his sleeves and explains imaginary numbers.

I can’t call off the heated glances, or the way our hands touch when I hand in my homework, or the memory of his body pressing against mine that night.

I’m a virgin.

He’s my professor.

If we give in, it could cost us both everything.

But I’m so tired of being a good girl.

Going undercover is Bella’s only hope.

Her mission? Convince Ben to sell his inn, and she’ll get the information needed to locate the family she’s never known.

It should be simple. After all, he’s behind on his mortgage, and a recent earthquake has rocked the town—and his finances. His beachfront property is ripe for the picking. But the big-city executive didn’t count on Ben being so stubborn. So rooted in family and tradition and everything that small-town America stands for.

She also didn’t count on him being so attractive and wounded and … good.

And she can't help falling for him. But will Bella’s secret destroy their blossoming love?
