Find a wife, or watch my sisters pay the price. That's the ultimatum from my cruel father. None of the women he has in mind interests me, and the only one I want hates me. But fate intervenes when Cassia witnesses a crime that could cost her life… and I'm the only one who can save her. In the world of the rich and powerful, wives are protected, and I've just found a solution to both of our problems. I've wanted Cassia for years. And now, she's mine.

They say everyone’s a superhero to someone. I’m not sure who I’m supposed to save, but I know who saved me. His name was Christopher. And up until the day he pulled me from death’s grip, he was nothing more than a boy I felt sorry for. In a blink of an eye, he became the only person who made me feel safe. And then he disappeared. I wasn’t going to have hope. I wouldn’t let myself wish. Those things - they weren’t for girls like me. That’s what I believed... until the new boy.

After the death of her sister, Gemma takes over guardianship of her five-year-old niece. Fulfilling a parental role and "adulting" all the time, Gemma is unable to get time for herself, suppressing her "Little" side. She needs the structure and comforts that accompany a dynamic between a Little and her Daddy. Chris is a Daddy Dom. He craves a Little to cherish, but he's also living his best life. Chris is also the son of Santa Claus, and this Christmas Santa is passing the reins over to Chris, but not without fine print.

The Bear Kingdoms of Louisiana are on the brink of war, sparked by the sudden appearance of a mysterious amulet in the swamplands. Adding to the problems, troops from a demon army called the Noctis begin laying waste to the bayou. Back in Georgia, Cooper Bennett’s not-so-secret life is quickly becoming a mess. The alpha power within him is taking a toll while the two loves of his life - Alyssa Noble and Billy Arnett - are dealing with drastic changes of their own.

Cooper Bennett is a high school senior living a hard and abusive life in the sleepy town of Goodman, GA. One night, a monstrous burden is thrust upon him with the potential to unlock the better life he’s always wanted; one filled with love from the girl of his dreams and strengthened childhood friendships. However, the effects of his actions do not go unnoticed. Grayson Manning and his athletic son Liam see things far differently, doing everything in their power to send all Cooper has affected into ruin before he and the dangerous Lance Goddard manage to do the same to them.

I'm not supposed to be here. Death has come for me more than once, and each time it's been a boy who's stood between me and my final breath. I called him Christopher when he saved me as a child. When he came into my life again, only months ago, I knew him as Wes. Just as he did the time before, he disappeared the moment he made sure I was out of harm's way; as if I didn't need any more saving.

If you would've asked Raven four years ago if she was in love with Linc, she would've answered, "Yes!" in a heartbeat. Now three and a half years later, the thought of Linc instills nothing but anger and hurt - Linc broke her heart into a million pieces, and ever since she's been trying to piece her heart back together. When Linc was given the opportunity of a lifetime that meant he was one step closer to being in the PGA, he knew what he had to do - walk away from Raven and sacrifice his happiness for his dreams.

Spring Break 2015 was supposed to be spent lying on the white sand beaches of Mexico sipping fruity cocktails with my friends and my boyfriend, Heath. Instead, I found myself single and flying back home to San Francisco to spend it with my mother, her new boyfriend, and his son, Linc. Linc or, as my friends like to call him, "Forbidden", is my future stepbrother and the one person who can get under my skin unlike anyone else.

Seven years ago, I stole a kiss from a debutante on a yacht. For my crime of passion, I spent three years in prison.

And this time, I’m taking more than just a kiss from her.

Especially the delicious eye candy that is their manager. Too bad he doesn’t see me. The Tin Gods’ drummer has a brilliant plan: I should fake date guitarist, Xander Lang, to keep Xander’s crazy ex—who’s now their opening act—off his case. And it’ll also make my crush finally notice me. Simple. Only problem is once we start “dating” lines get blurred. His kisses don’t feel pretend. And when did Xander become so thoughtful…

Juaquin Acenado. A drummer. A rapper. A rock king. My brother’s best friend. Arrogant. Forbidden. Do-not-go-there-trouble. The sexy Latino was too old for me when we first met and I was in high school. But he was my first love. I’ve never gotten over him. Miriam Jackson. Stripper. Exotic dancer. Her stage name is Queen. My bandmate’s little sister. Spicy and sweet. The spark that fires my inspiration. The rhythm to my beat.

It is 1985 in New York City, and Scarlett Ciccone is a young woman who knows neither her worth nor her culture until she steps foot inside Valenti's—Little Italy's hottest restaurant. While Scarlett is eager to learn the ropes of the restaurant business, she gets more than she bargained for when she meets the two Italian-born brothers who own one of the most sought-after establishments in all of Manhattan.

Warren “War” Jinkins is that guy. The bad one. Tempest’s ex-front man, an arrogant rock god. The only thing larger than his ego is his capacity for self-destruction. His bad attitude has cost him. His woman. His best friend. His band. Everything. Shaina Bentley is that girl. The good one. Hollywood’s pink candy-coated sweetheart. She’s been practically perfect since that horrible day. But she’s starting to crack under the strain of being everything to everyone. Is love a current too dangerous to cross or will it be the bridge that brings them together?

Heather Combs grew up in Ardor Creek, stuck in a home with zero love or emotional support. She became a popular but cold ice queen, then married her high school boyfriend, only to realize she’d entered into another emotionally unfulfilling relationship. Convinced she didn’t possess the capacity to love, she divorced her ex and left Ardor Creek. Years later, Jeremy Kramer, a successful author and single dad, moves to Ardor Creek and instantly falls for the small-town charm.

Justine Lancaster made every possible mistake in her disastrous marriage. After finally leaving her abusive ex-husband, she forges ahead, creating a new life with her daughter. Police officer Gary Lincoln fell in love with Justine somewhere between the end of his divorce and the first time he showed up on her doorstep with a deep need to protect her from her husband. After silently loving her for years, he continues to watch over Justine and her daughter, knowing they deserve happiness…and understanding a woman as special as Justine deserves more than he can give.

I hate Harry Stone. Before I’d even met the selfish former pro hockey player turned CEO, he was at the top of my shit list. The entire city of Chicago thinks he’s God’s gift to humanity, but I know the truth. He knocked up my best friend and then ditched her when she needed him most. She got sick after that, and before she passed away, she chose me to raise her newborn daughter. I just need Harry to sign away his rights to the little girl who means everything to me. Unfortunately, it’s not quite that simple.

Chad Hanson has one true love: being mayor of Ardor Creek. With his charming personality, kind nature, and adoration of the small town, it’s as if he was born for the role. Although he dates constantly and loves playing the field, he’s never come close to falling for someone the way he loves his job.

I should get this promotion to the executive team. I have experience. Loyalty. Smarts. But the one thing I don’t have is the one thing I’ve never been able to achieve: a family. My personal life shouldn’t matter, but the executive team is filled with family men and women. Me? I’ve had a revolving door of dates. It’s just the way I like things - casual, no-strings. But it’s time to toss out the little black book and get serious. I need a woman who’s feisty, someone who can handle me. Someone like that hot little brunette I see in the elevator who sets my libido on fire.

Cold. Cruel. Fearless. Ed Mescal had been all those things. None of them fit. Rebel. That one did. To the people who loved him, he’d been a brother. A grandson. A friend. To Piper Warren, he thought, he’d been much more. But lies that get buried are old and ugly once they're unearthed, something Ed's enemies are about to discover. Now he's back, freed from the past and ready to reclaim the life and love stolen from him. If he can prove that even a rebel deserves a second chance.
