Four years ago I lost my virginity on live, streaming television.

Too bad I wasn’t awake for it.

The video went viral. Of course it would. A Senator’s daughter on camera? Wouldn’t you click “share”? Besides, that’s what three of the four guys in the video did.

Share.

They shared me.

But that fourth guy? The nondescript one in the background in the upper left corner of the screen, just sitting on the couch? The only one who did nothing?

Not one single thing.

That was my boyfriend, Drew.

And that was the last time I saw him.

Until today, when my father—now on a path to the White House—hired him as head of security for my new team as I return home after four years of “recovering” in an undisclosed location that involved white lab coats, needles, pills and damage control.

You see, the other three guys never went to jail. Never had charges pressed.

Never faced consequences.

Until today.

Game on.

A Harmless Little Game is the first in this political thriller/romantic suspense trilogy by USA Today bestselling author Meli Raine.

Emma Mason is completely off-limits.

She was hired on at my law firm to clean up my image, but I can’t stop thinking about the dirty, filthy things I’d like to do to her.

Like bend her over my desk. Or the conference table. Or the copy machine.

She’s fresh out of law school and too innocent to touch, and I know I’m supposed to stay away. I’m not supposed to notice the way her demure outfits hug her hotter-than-sin curves. I’m not supposed to react when she bites her lip and looks at me with those big, blue, f*ck-me eyes.

But how can I resist?

Maxwell Kane is almost my boss.

That means I shouldn’t spend every waking minute daydreaming about the naughty things I’d like to with my experienced, ruggedly handsome partner…things I’ve never tried before.

It’s my very first job out of law school, and tempting him could mean disaster for my career. For both our careers.

But I want him to bend me over his desk and make me his. I want him to show me how filthy love can get.

I want it too much to say no…

HER HEART BELONGS TO ANOTHER
Betrothed to a title, as opposed to a man, Lady Florence Beatrice Wilfred reconciles herself to an awkward union with a childhood friend. Haunted by tragedy, which ripped her true love from her arms, she is content to honor the agreement negotiated by her father. But her world is again turned upside down, when her one-time fiancé makes a sudden and stunning return to London society and states, in no uncertain terms, he wants her. Given his violent past, can she trust him?

HE WILL DO ANYTHING TO GET HER BACK
Known throughout the seafaring ranks as The Iron Corsair, Lord Barrington Nicholas Peregrine Howe, Marquess of Ravenwood, stands accused of a heinous crime he swears he did not commit. After years on the run, sailing the ocean as a ruthless pirate, a chance at redemption and a full pardon offers him the opportunity to clear his name and regain all he lost, including the woman he loves, but an unknown and dangerous enemy lurks in the shadows. Can Barrington find the villain before history repeats itself?

The doorbell rings in the home of a prominent Palm Beach citizen, quickly followed by a shotgun blast that shatters a window, cracking the calm of a cool January night. Rodger Kriger falls to the floor, mortally wounded, leaving a wife and six children.

Murder in Palm Beach: The Homicide That Never Died is closely based on a sensational, real murder that happened in the posh oceanside town in 1976. In the thin guise of fiction, the book contains shocking new information never before made public. Author Bob Brink, an award-winning journalist, was a newspaper reporter in the locale where the sensational assassination occurred. It made media headlines for 15 years.

An ambitious prosecutor pins the deed on Mitt Hecher, a hoodlum and karate expert. At Hecher’s trial, fellow jail inmates testify that he confessed. He is convicted and sentenced to the brutal and anarchic state prison at Raiford, where a stabbing a day and a killing a week are the “mean” average.

Judges repeatedly frustrate Hecher and several attorneys working without fees to get a new trial, as investigators pursue myriad scenarios. Meanwhile, his wife contracts a deadly disease.

Was Hecher innocent, and if so, who did it? Did the sons of a wealthy Cuban kill Kriger? Were the operators of a gambling enterprise out to get him? Was a love triangle the basis for the shooting? Did a vicious underworld figure do the bidding of a criminal gang? Was a prominent politician behind the slaying? Those are the questions seeking answers amid the exploration of issues of justice and power.

Murder in Palm Beach is the saga of a battle between a man whose swagger has sent him spiraling to the bottom and powerful, sinister forces determined to keep him there. It is a story of redemption wrapped in a mystery tale reeking with power, sex, violence, and romance.

Pretending she was mine seemed so harmless in the beginning...

Carrie Callihan's life is finally coming together. Not only has she launched her own interior design business, but she has a loving fiance she wouldn't trade for anything.

But when she realizes he's not the man she thought he was, she finds herself in a desperate situation that just goes from bad to worse.

Now the only person that can save her from losing everything is her new client, Ben Abbott, the sexy son of one of the most powerful men in New York City.

But as Carrie's luck would have it, he wants her for a lot more than her good taste.

And Melissa Webb, the beautiful girlfriend of the front man, appeared to have it all.
But when Luke Black disappears without a trace and Melissa wakes up in a hospital bed after a savage attack, her perfect world is shattered and their lives are plunged into a potentially deadly crisis.
Where is Luke, and can he be found before it is too late?

I never had a problem with ghosts, with anything paranormal. It’s part of the teen angst that frames my life. Don’t get me wrong—I’m not hung up on some romantic gothic cliché. I’m not even trying to say I have supernatural powers. I just see what you can’t. Hear what you can’t.

My truth? It’s easier to believe in the dead, trapped by demons and freed by angels, than the fantasy of ordinary life circling in loops of routine as the one and only reality.

There’s a war of survival lurking in the unseen. Some of it’s internal, some isn’t.

When I understood darkness was feeding on those trapped, I had a moral hitch. Was it survival of the fittest, or the beginning of the end?

Standing up for the wretched cost me everything.

My story begins now.

They call me Ghost for a reason. Silent and in the shadows, I don't make my move until I am absolutely sure of everything.

Four years ago I was sure about Jenna. My best friend's kid sister had grown up into a spitfire I couldn't resist.

One night we stopped resisting...

We promised we'd keep it a secret. It was a one-time mistake, but we'd put it behind us. Jenna left but I kept my word.

Jenna tried to get out of our corrupt town, but it pulled her back in again. Now she needs help. She needs protection. I'll do all of that for her, if she'll just shut the hell up and let me. She can even keep all of her secrets, except for one...

The Lords of Carnage MC has haunted me from the moment I was born. No matter how much I try to get away, they are there -- waiting to pull me back into the life that stole my father, my mother and then my brother from me. The ghosts of my past keep rising from the dead.

Now the past is stirring again and all I want to do is run away. I'm back in the world I fled, and the secrets and lies of my whole family are about to be laid bare. But it's not just me anymore. I've got my little boy to look out for, too. I’m his only family. And his father has no idea he exists.

I swore I would never go back to the MC. I swore I would never make the same mistakes again. But making mistakes with Casper Watkins is too hard to resist…


GHOST is a scorching-hot stand-alone romance, and the first book in the new Lords of Carnage MC series. Ghost has NO cheating, no cliffhanger, and a guaranteed HEA!

They say demons and angels don’t mix. I say people should mind their own damn business.

My brother, Damian, has been my rock ever since mom left. Didn’t matter to him that I was a lowly half-demon while angel blood flowed through his veins. I was his and he was mine.

But nothing lasts forever.

He wants me to go to college. I’d rather fight a hundred sentinels than lead a boring, safe life hiding who I am. So when a nephilim goes missing, I go behind Damian’s back to find the teen. Maybe if I can solve the case, he will upgrade me to his partner in crime solving.

As bodies begin to drop, I realize I’m in way over my head. But there’s no way I’m going to admit that, not when my future hangs in the balance. Instead, I set my eyes on recruiting the help of the new kid. Lucas is arrogant, sexy, and persistently trying to get my number.

He’s also a nephilim. Off-limits, no matter how good he looks flinging fireballs.

Then again, I was never good at resisting temptation.

When the going gets tough...
Private investigator, Jill Gooder, has been hired to find a serial killer because, as usual, the police can't buy a clue. Jill, the not so proud owner of a crazy, one-eyed cat, probably can't expect too much help from her PA/Secretary, Mrs V, who spends all day knitting.
And just in case all of that wasn't bad enough, Jill's just about to discover she's a witch.
...break out the custard creams.
