Risky Business With My Billionaire Ex

About Risky Business With My Billionaire Ex

The billionaire who needs me to save his company is the only man who’s ever truly ruined me.
My life runs on clean lines, sharp rules, and never needing anyone who can walk away.
Then New York calls—and the client is the man who once broke me open, now a scandalized CEO who looks at me like he remembers every mistake we made in the dark.
Adrian Vale is off‑limits, infuriating, and impossible to ignore.
One glance and my body sparks like it never learned the word no.
A tabloid explosion forces us into a fake‑dating arrangement to control the narrative—turning boardrooms, headlines, and late nights into a slow burn ready to ignite.
Every staged touch feels real. Every kiss pulls us deeper.
I tell myself it’s strategy. A necessary lie.
When he shields me in public and steadies me in private, the past won’t stay buried—and the truth he’s hiding will unravel the very life I built to survive losing him.
Wanting Adrian could cost me my heart, my credibility, my company…and the safety I found in never loving him again.

The Mountain Man’s Sheltering Instinct

About The Mountain Man’s Sheltering Instinct

She came to the mountains to finish a cookbook. The storm gave me a reason to never let her go.

Alban

I left the firehouse because I couldn’t save everyone. Now I live quiet. Isolated.

Then a burned-out pastry chef slips on my trail, and suddenly I have one more chance to get it right. Neve Thomas is all soft curves and creative fire buried under exhaustion.

The second I lift her out of the rain, I know one thing for certain: She’s not leaving.

I stock ingredients for her cookbook. I cook for her until she finally breathes easy. She thinks she came here to finish her work in peace.

I’m going to give her that. But while my hands ground her and I cherish every inch of her, I’m making sure she stays mine.

Neve

I had a plan: Finish the cookbook. Reclaim my creative spark. Leave before I get too comfortable.

I didn’t expect Alban Wade. He pulls me from the mud, strong and capable, looking at me like he’s been waiting his whole life.

He has ingredients I didn’t know I needed. Cooks for me like it means something. Stills my anxious hands with his warm ones. He sees everything I’ve been trying to hide. The burnout. The doubt. The fear.

He says I’m not leaving his cabin, his kitchen, or his life. And when we come together, possessive and steady, I stop wanting to run.

How to Resist Mr. Wrong

About How to Resist Mr. Wrong

Sebastian Raux. Back in her life. Back in her office. Back to driving her absolutely insane.

Emily Bailey has her life under control. Well, mostly.

1. She’s carved out her space at the best marketing firm in the world (no, she’s not biased!)
2. She’s mastered the art of surviving her delightfully unhinged friends.
3. And she’s totally, completely, 100% over the boy who broke her heart years ago.

Unfortunately, that boy is now a man. And worse, her new colleague.

Sebastian might be golden-retriever sweet, but Emily knows better than to fall for it twice. How can he just waltz back in, doling out those sunshine smiles like he didn’t leave her duct-taping her heart back together?

His care infuriates her.

His friendliness makes her want to throw things at him (which is weird because she has never thrown anything at anyone before! She was always picked last in softball).

And his sudden reappearance in her life makes her suspicious.

Now her meddling friends and family have declared themselves Team Seb, leaving Emily outnumbered. And when Sebastian starts stepping into her projects like nothing ever happened, she has no choice but to push back. Hard.

She’ll fight him on every memo, every meeting, every decision. She’ll do anything to keep her Seb-free life intact. But if she’s not careful, she might just lose the one battle she swore she’d already won. Her heart.

***A laugh-out-loud workplace romcom with a sarcastic heroine, a cinnamon roll hero who might not be here just for the job, hilarious meddling friends, and a guaranteed happily ever after. Perfect for fans of enemies-to-lovers banter, second chances, and swoony office tension.

About Lit Up by My Brother’s Best Friend

When the good girl falls…

Sierra

Over a decade ago, I aimed too high when I fell for my brother’s best friend. So I settled for someone else. And then got dumped. And now I’m dangling from a fence waiting for my dream guy to rescue me. Yes, it’s all connected. And yes, it all started with a stupid game of Never Have I Ever. And yes, I’m too old for that game. But then Hunter saves me, sweeps me off of my feet, and announces he’s staying overnight to make sure I don’t have a concussion. It’ll be fine. I’m the good girl. Until he kisses me.

Hunter

I’ve always loved her. But I can’t have her because she’s got a boyfriend. Yup. She is completely off limits. But tell that to my heart. And other body parts. I’ve been aching for her for a decade. And in this small town it’s hard not to run into my best friend’s sister.

Then she calls me one night because—get this—she’s stuck in a fence.

I’m there in a heartbeat, and I’ll use any excuse to be near her. Now that she’s in my arms, it’s hard to let go. But when she tells me she’s single? Oh man, all bets are off.

Protected by Saint

About Protected by Saint

Jade
When my roommate and best friend set me up with a job interview, I was grateful. I’d never been a server at a club before, but I had some waitressing experience, so how hard could it be? But when I arrived at the club, I realized I’d fallen into my worst nightmare. The club owner wasn’t interested in hiring any servers, that was merely a ruse to lure innocent girls like me into a trap. Before I’d even processed what’s happening, I was center stage being auctioned off to the highest bidder in a room full of cruel, rich men. They all wanted to win me for one night, to be the one to take my virginity. But the man who outbid the rest is nothing like I expected. No, he’s angry and terrifying, but his ire is for the men who dared traffic women in his territory. He whisks me away to safety just as the sound of gunshots fills the air. But once I learn who this man is, I have to ask myself if I’m ready to step into a world of crime and danger. Is Saint worth upending my whole life? Does he even want me for more than a few nights, or was he just playing at being a hero?

Saint
Being the president of a notorious motorcycle club comes with plenty of perks, but also a lot of headaches. One such headache is the man I followed to a seedy nightclub deep in Steel Rebels territory. I would have been content to grab my prey and leave if not for the vision of beauty who graces the stage shortly after my arrival. When I realize what’s really happening at this club—what these scum dared to do in my territory—I decide it’s time to remind the city who the Steel Rebels are and just what will happen if anyone crosses us. But first, I have to claim my winnings, and she’s just as beautiful and sweet as she looked on stage, and even more terrified up close. The pull I feel for Jade is immense, but I refuse to traumatize her further. Instead, I take her home and offer her safe place to stay. I’ll let her get settled in and rest for a bit before letting her know that, while I won’t force her to stay, my heart is telling me that Jade is mine, and I’ll do anything to have and to hold her for the rest of my life.

Welcome to the Steel Rebels MC, where these rebels blur the lines of morally gray and keep you guessing. This is a “lite” MC, insta-love, alpha heroes, standalones, and full HEA guaranteed.

Follow along as Saint leads the charge of this exciting motorcycle club series. He might even call in a favor or two from his cousin, Priest, President of the Steel Order MC. These guys know exactly what they want and will stop at nothing to claim what’s theirs. Enjoy your next swoon-worthy binge read!

Riding with My Secret Crush

About Riding with My Secret Crush

This was supposed to be a boring trip across country with nothing but my sister’s playlist to keep me company until I saw her. Iris isn’t familiar, even though she says we went to college together. I don’t remember, which is too bad because this curvy little blonde has completely captured my attention. Especially when she mentions a wine festival. On a whim, I offer to let her ride with me.

I have six states to get to know her, but it only takes one for me to fall hard. She’s sexy, easy to talk to, and impossible not to notice. The longer we are on the road, the more I question the legend of Bluebell Pointe, but there’s something she’s keeping from me. Something that’s holding her back, but I won’t give up. This isn’t just a trip. It’s the beginning of something that feels like so much more. She might be the detour I never saw coming, but having her at my side is the only way I want this trip to end.

As enemies close in, the line between survival and disaster is razor-thin.

One wrong move—and it could end them both.
