As a chart-topping country singer, I’m living the dream.

While my family is all back in Austin, embracing their happily-ever-afters, I’m on the road on a sold-out tour.

I should feel ecstatic, yet all I am is lonely.

Maybe that’s why I find myself drawn to a fan who pops up at one of my shows.

Something about the way he watches me on stage has me thinking…he knows my secret.

And after the first kiss, I can’t seem to let him go.

But Jensen Miles has some secrets of his own:

He isn’t just a regular fan. He’s a preacher.

And not just any preacher—the new preacher at my dad’s church.

Where I come from, preachers don’t have filthy mouths and dirty hookups, let alone with a male country singer.

But Jensen has scars like mine. They just run deeper.

We can’t stay away from each other, though. One night turns into nearly every city of the tour; the two of us sneak around backstage, onto tour buses, and in hotel rooms.

And while I’ve never been happier…I’m tired of hiding.

With Jensen, I might be able to escape the monsters from my past—even if the scariest one has just been set free.

With Jensen, we can outrun our demons together.

With Jensen, I’m finally ready to come home.]]> 434 Sara Cate Meredith 0 currently-reading 4.65 2025

]]> 219739168 A new steamy workplace age gap why choose romcom standalone!

I didn’t plan on working for one grumpy boss, let alone three. And I sure as heck didn’t plan on selling them my virginity.

Wyatt Ellis, Brantley Ellis and Maverick Wallace are just as pretentious as their names sound. Who cares if they’re gorgeous billionaires. They are the literal worst.

Between the long hours, the snippy comments, and the last minute requests you’d think even one of them would get my name right. Nope. They’re infuriating. Insufferable. Overbearing.

Unfortunately I need this job.

Especially after an unexpected expense, makes me desperate and I need to look at getting some cash and quick but there’s only one thing I have worth selling. My V-card.

I really shouldn’t have had the auction site open on my company computer and I definitely should’ve left the hotel room when I realized who the highest bidders were.

But I didn’t and now they want more. Too bad for them my heart isn’t for sale.

]]> 219427435 Kennedy

I’m the only woman on staff for the Windy City Warriors, and after years of putting up with a sexist lead doctor, I’m desperate to land my dream job with a new team next year. All I have to do is maintain my professional reputation for my final season in Chicago.

But a Las Vegas run-in with the team’s shortstop threatens it all, leaving me with a fuzzy memory and a ring on my left hand.

Now, not only am I legally bound to the most persistent man I’ve ever met, but thanks to Isaiah’s scheme to save my job, I have to pretend the whole thing was a planned elopement and not a drunken mistake.

Isaiah Rhodes is reckless, impulsive, and frustratingly charming. He’s also my brand-new husband.

They got the saying wrong. What happens in Vegas doesn’t always stay in Vegas�� sometimes it follows you right back home.


Isaiah

As the shortstop for Chicago’s professional baseball team, I’ve had my fair share of fun. But that all ended the day Kennedy Kay became a single woman.

I’ve crushed on the team’s athletic trainer for years. I’ve flirted to no avail, so imagine my surprise when I woke up in Sin City with a ring on my finger and my favorite redhead in my bed.

We agree to stay married for one baseball season, just long enough to keep her job safe, but in my mind, I’m using our time together to prove to her I’m husband material.

Kennedy might be reluctant to join in on our game, but it’s one I refuse to lose.

So come on, wife�� play along.]]> 384 Liz Tomforde Meredith 0 4.49 2024

For as long as I can remember, I’ve craved submission, but have struggled to put my wants into words. Then along comes a man online that I know only as Sir, and the connection is instant. Our desires align in a way I’ve never experienced. Anonymous or not, Sir is exactly what I’m looking for.

After several intense online sessions, no faces involved, we finally agree to meet. Except the man waiting for me isn’t a stranger—it’s my dad’s lifelong best friend, Marshall.

Marsh

John’s my chosen family, my safe space. The only thing we don’t see eye to eye on are my personal needs in the bedroom. So, when his son, JT, turns out to be the first person who’s excited me in longer than I can remember, I’m devastated. John would never forgive me if I let this happen.

And I try to stay away, I swear, but I can’t.

What starts out as simple fulfilment of physical desires grows into something more. The trust JT and I share, his submission…it reaches me on levels I didn’t know were possible. He makes me crave forever.

JT is mine, but to claim him, I’m sure to lose everything else in the process.

Mine is a dad’s best friend, steamy romance. Naughtier than most of my books, please use the look inside feature to check the content warning.]]> 251 Riley Hart Meredith 0 currently-reading 3.88

Instead, it’s a wedding, and I’m the unwilling bride.

Tigran Sarkissian is gorgeous brutality in a designer suit, and I’m shocked at how badly I want him from the moment we share our first kiss at the wedding altar.

I’m expected to move into his house, sleep in his bed, and carry his baby. No complaints.

Except I’m a recluse. I’ve been hiding away for the last twelve years.

Forget about marriage, I can barely go outside.

I don’t care if he’s got beautiful, rough hands and a filthy mouth. I refuse to fall head over heels when he strokes the ugly scar down my cheek.

My new husband might own my womb—but he won’t control me.

Right until a rival gang tries to destroy the alliance we’re creating, and an evil sicko from my past wants to finally kill me after all these years.

As I fight for my safety, I just might have to trust my possessive and psychotic husband to survive.

And he’s pointing a gun at my head.

I’m mortified. Also, I’m trespassing. I never should’ve gone anywhere near my hot neighbor’s place.

But instead of ending up murdered or arrested, I have one of the steamiest nights of my life with a mysterious man that looks like heaven and tastes like sin.

Turns out that my hot neighbor is Arsen Sarkissian, head of the Brotherhood crime syndicate.

He’s chiseled from granite, burning to the touch, and scarily obsessed when it comes to family.

So he offers me a become his wife, give him the baby, and he’ll take care of my sick mother forever.

Now I’m on the wedding altar saying vows I don’t mean, all because the dangerous, beautiful killer’s making promises I’m not sure he can keep.

He immediately plans to annul, but it turns out she needs a husband to receive her inheritance. They have nothing in common, but if he plays along, she promises to be his dream wife.

The rules are simple: Share the marital bed every night, no real feelings, and the marriage ends in six months when they both have what they want.

But living with this accidental wife doesn’t produce the respectfully indifferent marriage he envisioned. Despite her innocence, she’s feisty both in and out of bed. His family adores her, and when he learns that her family treats her badly, he finds himself wanting to protect her. And maybe more.

Ares can’t stop thinking about his unexpectedly adorable, irresistible, and wonderful fake wife. But despite his evolving intentions—and emotions—she abides by their fake marriage rules a little too well.

Ares realizes the one thing his wife wants from him is the one thing he can no longer do: Let her go.

The Accidental Marriage is a standalone romance. If you love:

* fake marriage
* forced proximity
* he falls first
* he falls harder
* a scarred hero (and wait til you see just how scarred...)
* an unexpected virgin
* a runaway bride
* amnesia / mistaken identity
* soulmates
* a protector
* a found family

I protect what’s mine.

With too many demons to face, and no direction in my life, I joined the Navy as soon as I turned eighteen, and I became a machine. A precision weapon. The elite of the elite.

On SEAL Team One, I did what was necessary to protect my country. I learned that I thrive under pressure in high stakes situations, and when I moved back to New York, I found a new way to channel the storm raging inside of me. At least for a while.

I trained to become a Dominant and never looked back.

Club Venom became my new home, my passion project, and gave me a space to exert control in my relationships without the messy emotions I left behind so many years ago.

I never deviate from the plan. From the rules. From the contracts. That is until I cross the line�� for her. I’ll do anything to make her mine. And I always protect what’s mine. I always will��

]]> 230279445 The perfect jailer and the perfect bodyguard... or the perfect man?

As the youngest son of a sheikh, Gadiel's tired of living a lie and staying in the closet. His plans to run away with a handsome, flirtatious American are thwarted when Gadiel's family forces a bodyguard on him who's paid to watch his every move.

Will Summers wasn't looking for a new job. When his cousin talks him into becoming the bodyguard of the spoiled prince he's infatuated with, Will is less than enthused. He doesn't expect to start liking his new charge—or thinking of him as his property.

Gadiel hates Will immediately. He's the most infuriating, unshakable man he's ever met. He drives him crazy—but his anger turns into a fixation. He shouldn't be so obsessed with his straight, controlling bodyguard when he's already met the man of his dreams.

Will knows Gadiel's just a job. Giving in, indulging his need to be touched, would be wrong. And Gadiel knows Will can never be his.

But as loyalties begin to shift and lines blur, Will's professional protectiveness twists into possessiveness—and something far more dangerous...

Just a Bit Guarded is a M/M romance about an iron-willed bodyguard, a headstrong young prince, and an attraction they can't resist. Book 15 in the Straight Guys series, but it can be read as a standalone.]]> 257 Alessandra Hazard Meredith 0 currently-reading 4.21 2025

I’ve been running for most of my life, hiding away in a small town and hoping no one discovers who I truly am. The only problem is that I can never let anyone know the real me. Or at least that was true until my brother moved his best friend onto our shared property.

Now, I’m stuck trying to avoid the nosy billionaire’s probing questions and piercing stares. And it doesn’t help that I almost killed him the first time we met.

Oops.

But when all my carefully crafted lies come crashing down around me, it’s Linc stepping in to shield me. And when it looks like the person hunting me for all those years is back, Linc will do anything to keep me safe.

Only it’s not just my safety at risk. It’s my heart. Because when Linc touches me, I lose all sense. And when I truly get to know the broken billionaire, he’s so much more than a ruthless business tycoon. He’s the man showing me that it’s time to really live.

But I’m not the only one with secrets. Linc has them, too. And when the forces from our pasts emerge from the shadows, it’s with only one goal: to end the new life we’re building together. For good.]]> 402 Catherine Cowles 1951936655 Meredith 0 currently-reading 4.39 2025

I’ve spent years hiding my depraved deviances behind my roles as pastor and headmaster of Saint Helena Academy.
When Julian—my former best friend—returns to my life, the tension between us is impossible to ignore.
He’s married now, and I try to keep my distance.
Until he confesses his secret: he wants me to sleep with his wife, Sophie, while he watches.
It’s their arrangement, their game—and now, I’m the one they’ve chosen.
I should walk away, but I can’t—I’m just as drawn to her as I am to him.
What starts as curiosity spirals into something far deeper–something that could destroy everything I’ve worked to protect.

Julian
He kissed me once. Then he disappeared.
Seventeen years later, Malakai is back, and my unresolved feelings soon evolve into a new obsession: watching him with Sophie.
It consumes me.
Sophie is a hotwife, and watching her with other men has always been my kink.
But with Kai, it’s different—he prefers a darker, more intense experience.
He’s also used to being in control, but now it’s my turn.
But only if my marriage can survive opening up to him–and if I can maintain control without falling for him all over again.

Cold. A deep, bone-chilling cold. I’ve felt it since the night I clutched my pregnant fiancée to my chest and had a pair of cold, lifeless eyes stare back at me.

My family wants me to move on. To start living again. But it’s not so easy to do when your heart and soul are still six feet under.

A second chance at love isn’t in the cards for me.

A second chance at love isn’t in the cards for me. Which is why when I meet Aria Swan in a bar one night and she offers up a solution to both of our problems, I actually consider her proposal.

I mean, where’s the harm in playing house for a bit? It’s not like I’m going to fall in love with her.

A fact that will make terminating this little arrangement at the end of the year easy.

Even if her touch has this way of melting the icy coldness surrounding my heart��

Aria

Ever had the answers to all your problems just fall into your lap? Or, in my case, have you stumbling into the solution?

I have no idea what comes over me when I bump into Santo De Bellis. Call it desperation. A last-ditch effort to pull myself out of the hole my last name has created. But all I can think is how this arrangement can be mutually beneficial.

I need a husband. Because if I’m already taken, my father can’t marry me off to the highest bidder. And if that same husband happens to be a De Bellis, well, no one is going to be stupid enough to question it.

I don’t expect him to actually agree. So when he does, I jump at the chance for freedom.

What could possibly go wrong? All we have to do is stay married for a year. It can’t be that hard. Can it?]]> 263 Kylie Kent 1923137093 Meredith 0 4.47

]]> 224285265 husband. Pro quarterback Ryan Ralston has always known two things. First, he’s desperately in love with his best friend Emme Ahlborg. Second–and most importantly–he still has no idea how to tell her.

The marriage pact they made in their senior yearbook was the closest he ever came. Years passed and Emme forgot about their promise. Ryan never did, especially not on his thirtieth birthday.

Emme can’t catch a break. Always unlucky in love, her cheating ex is a groomsman in her best friend’s wedding—and there’s no way she’s showing up alone.

Ryan offers her the one thing better than a wedding a revenge husband. And he’s not just any fake husband but the NFL’s brightest star…and in need of serious reputation rehab.

Playing the part of the happy couple comes easy and soon enough, the lines between real and fake blur. They disappear altogether when there’s just one bed.

All Ryan has to do is save Emme from her ex, find her step-sister an internship, and get his wife to fall in love with him—or fumble the one thing he’s ever her heart. ]]> 477 Kate Canterbary Meredith 0 currently-reading 4.21 2025

Protecting him is my duty, but falling for him could be my undoing.

I’ve spent five years burying my past, leaving behind the violence and bloodshed of my former life as a Bratva enforcer. Now, I’m just Luca—the quiet guy who keeps his head down, working security for a professional hockey team. I don’t get close to anyone, and I definitely don’t let anyone get close to me.

But then I’m assigned to protect Max Ryan, the team’s star defenseman, and everything changes.

He's my obsession. My crush.

Max is everything I shouldn’t want. Charismatic and stubborn, he’s got a knack for finding trouble, and now he’s got a target on his back. The last thing I need is to be drawn into his world, where old loyalties and deadly secrets collide with new, dangerous desires.

As much as I try to keep things professional, Max has a way of breaking through my defenses. But when a shadow from my past threatens to destroy him and everything I’ve built, I’ll do whatever it takes to keep him safe.

Even if it means confronting the darkness I thought I’d left behind—and risking everything, including my heart.

]]> 212705721 The third in the steamy, hilarious Campus Diaries series by New York Times bestselling author Elle Kennedy, set in the same world as Off Campus and Briar U.

College senior Charlotte Kingston is living two lives―and she's nailing both of them. By day, she's the perfect sorority girl, a STEM student in biomedical engineering, and the adopted daughter of an overachiever family. At night, she's Charlie: a risk-taking daredevil looking for fun who finds herself chatting on a dating app with two anonymous hotties.

Will Larsen may seem like the breezy boy next door, but his congressman father is a constant thorn in his side. After a scandal hits another Division 1 hockey program, Will's dad is determined to distance his son from it, hiring a journalist to prove how squeaky-clean Will and his team are. Which means the last thing Will wants is for anyone to find out he and his best friend Beckett Dunne―a laidback Aussie shielding secret heartache―sometimes share girls in the bedroom.

When Charlie finally meets them in person and realizes she's been chatting with two gorgeous Briar U hockey players, things get steamy―fast. But all their messy secrets are piling up, and real life soon threatens to shatter the fantasy. With Charlie, Will, and Beckett all coming to terms with what they want and what others want for them, difficult decisions will need to be made.

Especially when lust starts to look a lot like love.]]> 577 Elle Kennedy 1990101208 Meredith 0 currently-reading 3.69 2025

College senior Sabrina James has her whole future planned out: graduate from college, kick butt in law school, and land a high-paying job at a cutthroat firm. Her path to escaping her shameful past certainly doesn’t include a gorgeous hockey player who believes in love at first sight. One night of sizzling heat and surprising tenderness is all she’s willing to give John Tucker, but sometimes, one night is all it takes for your entire life to change.

But the game just got a whole lot more complicated...

Tucker believes being a team player is as important as being the star. On the ice, he’s fine staying out of the spotlight, but when it comes to becoming a daddy at the age of twenty-two, he refuses to be a bench warmer. It doesn’t hurt that the soon-to-be mother of his child is beautiful, whip-smart, and keeps him on his toes. The problem is, Sabrina’s heart is locked up tight, and the fiery brunette is too stubborn to accept his help. If he wants a life with the woman of his dreams, he’ll have to convince her that some goals can only be made with an assist.]]> 350 Elle Kennedy Meredith 0 3.98 2016

Allie Hayes is in crisis mode. With graduation looming, she still doesn’t have the first clue about what she’s going to do after college. To make matters worse, she’s nursing a broken heart thanks to the end of her longtime relationship. Wild rebound sex is definitely not the solution to her problems, but gorgeous hockey star Dean Di Laurentis is impossible to resist. Just once, though, because even if her future is uncertain, it sure as heck won’t include the king of one-night stands.

It’ll take more than flashy moves to win her over

Dean always gets what he wants. Girls, grades, girls, recognition, girls…he’s a ladies man, all right, and he’s yet to meet a woman who’s immune to his charms. Until Allie. For one night, the feisty blonde rocked his entire world—and now she wants to be friends? Nope. It’s not over until he says it’s over. Dean is in full-on pursuit, but when life-rocking changes strike, he starts to wonder if maybe it’s time to stop focusing on scoring…and shoot for love.]]> 472 Elle Kennedy Meredith 0 4.22 2016

]]> 211373244 ATHENA
I've always shot for the moon, but if you'd told me I'd be earning seven figures aged twenty-four, I would never have believed you.

And if you'd told me that I'd earn every penny of that success by selling my body and my soul, I'd have laughed in your face.

Still. Here I am at Seraph, an elite agency that recruits only the most well-educated, accomplished and discreet women.

Our area of expertise? "Full service" executive assistants to the most powerful men in the world.

Whatever our bosses need, we provide. Day or night, in the boardroom or the bedroom.

It's every bit the challenge I've longed for, and it's more fulfilling than I could ever have dreamt. My secret? Discipline. An open mind. And rock-solid boundaries.

None of which are a problem, until I cross paths with Gabriel Sullivan, a former Catholic priest turned billionaire CEO whose appetites are voracious as his demons are relentless.

In the midst of all his inner turmoil and outer pressures, I know it's my very impassiveness that he values the most.

Too bad he's the only man I've worked for who makes me want to burn every one of my boundaries to ash.

Audacity is a scorching hot billionaire, age gap, workplace romance spun off from my Alchemy series. It's the story of Athena, Anton Wolff's "full service" executive assistant in Unveil.

There are group activities along the way, but Athena and Gabriel get a monogamous HEA.

I was told that dreams were our heart’s desires. My nightmares, however, became my obsession.

His name is Michael Crist.

My boyfriend’s older brother is like that scary movie that you peek through your hand to watch. He's handsome, strong, and completely terrifying. The star of his college’s basketball team and now gone pro, he’s more concerned with the dirt on his shoe than me.

But I noticed him.

I saw him. I heard him. The things that he did, and the deeds that he hid…For years, I bit my nails, unable to look away.

Now, I’ve graduated high school and moved on to college, but I haven’t stopped watching Michael. He’s bad, and the dirt I’ve seen isn’t content to stay in my head anymore.

Because he’s finally noticed me.

Michael

Her name is Erika Fane, but everyone calls her Rika.

My brother’s girlfriend grew up hanging around my house and is always at our dinner table. She looks down when I enter a room and stills when I am close. I can always feel the fear rolling off of her, and while I haven’t had her body, I know that I have her mind. That’s all I really want anyway.

Until my brother leaves for the military, and I find Rika alone at college.

In my city.

Unprotected.

The opportunity is too good to be true, as well as the timing. Because you see, three years ago she put a few of my high school friends in prison, and now they’re out.

We’ve waited. We’ve been patient. And now every last one of her nightmares will come true.

*Corrupt is a STANDALONE dark romance with no cliffhanger. It is suitable for ages 18+.]]> 518 Penelope Douglas 1952646006 Meredith 0 currently-reading 4.08 2015

]]> 222196581 Single Mom, Marriage Of Convenience, Hockey Romance.

You’d think a romance author would know better than to fall for her fake husband. It’s the oldest trope in the
book . . . literally. But it turns out writing it and living it are two very different things.

The plan was enticing—marry hockey’s hottest player so I could receive my inheritance and give my daughters the life they deserve. I’m already a single mom at twenty-five—how hard could it be?

Well . . . the answer is harder than you think because Leo Sinclair is so much more than I bargained for. Six foot, four inches of toned muscle and golden skin wrapped around the most perfectly chiseled jaw and dangerously charming smile. I knew he’d be hard to resist . . . but it’s not just his looks that weaken my resolve.

It’s the way he wins over my daughters with ease.
The way he sees through my defenses and quiets my fears.
The way he says “my wife�� like he means it.

Suddenly, this arrangement doesn’t feel so fake. And I’m no longer sure which of us is playing pretend.

But when love wasn’t part of the deal, will saying “I do�� turn out to be his biggest regret—or mine?]]> 261 Bella Matthews Meredith 0 currently-reading 4.44 2024

Except it didn’t.

Five years later, I’m a single mom, starting fresh in Atlanta, writing a piece on the NHL’s most respected coach—Casey McConnell.

He’s a silver fox with piercing blue eyes that ignite a spark in me.
A man who commands the ice and his team with sexy authority.
And completely off-limits, given I’m one of his player’s younger sister.

Despite our age gap, I didn’t think we’d get this close this fast...

Until I notice the birthmark on his shoulder—the same one I saw on my masked lover five years ago.

OMG. He’s the one who left me with a little surprise that night.
And he has no idea he’s her father.
And I plan to keep it that way.

But when he starts piecing the clues together, I realize the truth could spark a career-ending scandal that threatens to shatter the team.

And for my daughter—and my heart—I can’t afford to puck this up.

So many wrong decisions put me under the control of a dangerous man intent on destroying me.
My only way out is to find a place to hide and survive until I can risk going back for everything that’s been taken from me.

At the underground auction, I’m sold to the highest bidder.

The three men who buy me are huge and rugged, with watchful eyes and powerful bodies capable of tearing trees from their roots. They’re reclusive lumberjacks who take me back to their remote mountain cabin to serve all their needs.

West is ex-military. Fierce and brooding, he keeps to himself, but in the bedroom, he seems to want to break me with pleasure to fix his deep wounds.

Finn is gentle despite his size and brute strength. He’s reluctant to own me, but his need for closeness burns through his restraint.

Jack is ex-law enforcement, and watches me like I’m going to bring trouble to their door. He’s mean and harsh and tests every boundary I have. But his sky-blue eyes crave the connection he seems to fear.

They introduce me to the isolation and beauty of the mountain forest, and I succumb to their dark desires, desperate for the safety they offer.

But even as I submit, I can’t forget what was taken from me, despite the risk to my life if I ever go back.
Confessing the truth to three savage strangers feels impossible.

Have I surrendered to another relationship that will break me, or should I trust the three gruff lumberjacks with my secret and my heart?

"Auctioned to the Lumberjacks" is a standalone romance, and the first book in the popular series, Auctioned.
Note to readers: This book contains darker themes. These lumberjacks are mean and moody -- until they're redeemed by love.

When you want someone completely wrong for you��

Luke Whitford has always dreamed of meeting Mr. Right. A hopeless romantic at heart, he dreams of falling in love with a nice man, getting married, and having a bunch of adorable babies. The problem is, Luke has the propensity for being attracted to men who are anything but nice.

Roman Demidov, a homophobic, cynical billionaire who has a grudge against Luke’s father, is certainly not Mr. Right. Cold, manipulative, and ruthless, he’s not a nice man and he doesn’t pretend to be.

Luke is fully aware that Roman is all wrong for him. His attraction to the guy is just some sort of Stockholm syndrome; it must be. If life were a fairy tale, Roman would be the main villain, not the hero.

But even villains can fall in love. Or can they?

The story of a boy who dreamed of Prince Charming and ended up falling for the Beast.

This book contains derogatory language, mentions of violence, explicit M/M content, D/s dynamic, and a protagonist of questionable morality. Book #6 in the Straight Guys series, but it can be read as a stand alone. ]]> 258 Alessandra Hazard Meredith 0 4.12 2016

When his boss asks him to accompany him to Italy for a family wedding, Jordan agrees. He’ll get paid handsomely for his trouble.

There’s a catch, though. Several catches.

1. He’s there as bait: Jordan has to pose as his boss’s real boyfriend, who looks a lot like Jordan.

2. Someone in his boss’s mafioso family wants to murder them.

3. That someone is probably Damiano Conte, a cold, ruthless bastard who has no right to be so hot.

Everyone says Damiano is a sociopath with no capacity for real emotion. Jordan believes them. But he can’t seem to stay away, fascinated with the man despite his better judgment.

When the family visit turns into a nightmare of betrayal, kidnapping, and murder, Jordan has to rely on Damiano to keep his sanity. Can he trust a heartless, manipulative sociopath? Can he stop craving him after he returns to his normal life?

Can a man who doesn’t feel fall in love?

]]> 220239464 From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Meghan Quinn comes a new forced proximity, single dad romantic comedy. This steamy, laugh out loud, enemies-to-lovers, small town standalone romance delivers the perfect happily ever after.

What does one do when they completely blow an interview?
If you're me, you pick up a one-night stand with the most gorgeous man you've ever seen..

That's right, after a lousy interview that could have changed everything for me, I headed over to the local small town bar to sulk when the one man I shouldn't want walked in. And when my friend convinced me to take him back to my hotel room, I didn't think about it, I just did it . . . well, I did him.

It was an unforgettable night, but I didn't stay for breakfast. Instead, I got out of there and tried not to think about him again.

Everything was fine until I received a call from the interviewer saying I got the job as the assistant baseball coach at Almond Bay High. I'd be working directly under the one and only Ryland Rowley--my one-night stand.

Now, I'm not only working with him but renting the apartment above his garage. And I have to deal with the fact that he's the man I dream about and can't have while not letting my attraction get in the way of keeping the harmony between us. Sounds easy, doesn't it?

It should have been, except the plan falls apart when my shower breaks, and night after night I have to slip into his house to use the bathroom only to find him in the kitchen, staring me down with those hungry, single dad eyes.]]> 460 Meghan Quinn Meredith 0 4.26

]]> 204258214 I’ve always been the dutiful son, living my life for everyone else but me. So, walking in on my fiancée with someone else during our engagement party should have filled me with devastation, but instead, I felt relieved.

When a drunken message to the woman whose heart I broke all those years ago comes back with a reply, will this be the second chance I’ve always hoped for, or is it too late?

Paige
This isn’t at all how I saw my life playing out. It started with discovering I’ve inherited my Great Aunt’s estate in Italy.

Then I walk into our restaurant and find my husband giving his French baguette to our sous chef. And because I hadn’t suffered enough, the universe decides to bring back into my life the one man I swore I’d never speak to ever again. Except now he’s a sexy billionaire.]]> 351 J.A.

This is not how I saw my life panning out. Flying halfway across the world, leaving my dream job behind me all because my fiancé couldn’t keep it in his pants. Coming home to my family is the exact cure I need for my broken heart.
What I wasn’t expecting to see in my living room is a hot, naked, Italian man.

Did I mention, naked. I really shouldn’t be looking at his��

Luca

I’ve always lived by my family’s rules, but where has that gotten me?
A cheating fiancée. A scandal that will be national news by morning.
I need to get away and plan my next move. A remote cottage in the middle of Scotland seems the right place.
That is until an awkwardly cute brunette stumbles into my cottage in the middle of a snowstorm where I’m standing. Naked.

She can’t take her eyes off of my�� I should go and put some pants on�� shouldn’t I?��

I have a secret to protect—at all costs.
So when the cocky, handsome, and submissive Clay Bradley weasels his way into my heart, I do the one thing I’ve always excelled at. I push him away—forever. And like a good boy, he listens.

She wants me to teach her.
I should say no. Training a woman who makes my knees weak is bad enough. But this particular woman is dating the man who still has my heart. It’s a recipe for disaster.
Made worse by one simple fact—they know my secret.
And they won’t let go.
But how can I protect what’s mine if I’m holding onto them too?

]]> 61079219 That marriage pact I made with my grumpy, off-limits best friend. That was totally a joke...Right?

It was a heat-of-the-moment agreement scribbled onto the back of a crinkled gas station receipt nine years ago.
"If neither of us are married by age 30, we'll marry each other."

Haha! So funny!

Cash moved to a city 500 miles away. Building his billion-dollar empire. Making a name for himself.
Me? I stayed in our gossipy hometown. Working a simple job. Living a simple life.
And we never discussed the marriage pact again.

But I just turned the big three-oh.
And Cash showed up at my door, in the middle of a freaking rainstorm.
Tall, muscled and soaking wet.
With a birthday cake in his hand and a daring smirk that says he means business.

Holy plot twist! Didn't see that coming!

Now the small town rumor mill is in overdrive.
Cash is dissolving my defences with those sexy half-smiles he saves just for me.
And my brain is exploding with what ifs...

What if we give this a shot?
What if we're crazy enough to try?
What if we're good together?

We've always been 'just friends'. We're experts at playing it safe.
But his skin on my skin leaves me reeling. His oh-so-fiery kisses melt my excuses.
I know our decade-plus friendship is on the line. But I'm aching to see Cash's wild side.

The Wild Side is a steamy, laugh-out-loud, friends-to-lovers small town romance. It is set in small town Iowa and is book one in the Wild Westbrooks Series.]]> 434 Cassie-Ann L. Miller Meredith 0 currently-reading 3.96 2022

Except nothing is easy and letting go turns out to be much harder than one might think. Some bonds are too strong to be broken, even for a straight man. And sometimes love and desire can have different faces and layers.

A story of two men trying to function without each other and failing.

This book contains explicit M/M content, rough sex, drunk sex, and graphic language. ]]> 228 Alessandra Hazard Meredith 0 currently-reading 3.67 2015

The other women watch me with envy, but they know nothing of the beatings and punishments I endure. He hides them with a veil. One I must wear until I give him a son.

But when I fail, he threatens the only good things in my life. My sister, Alice, and the daughter he ripped from my arms for another family to raise.

I thought running back to Saint View would save us. I thought wrong.

Now my sister is dead, left strangled in an alleyway, and my ex-husband isn’t the only suspect.

To catch a killer, I move in with the local biker gang that promises to keep us safe. But my new life as a single mom delivers more than I ever could have bargained for, and three men I never saw coming.

Hawk, the club VP who doesn’t want me there. Except his green eyes flicker with desire at every curve of my plus size body.

Chaos, ex-gang leader and part owner of an after-hours nightclub. The connection between us is undeniable, except for one small problem. He’s Hawk’s sworn enemy, so completely off-limits.

And Grayson, the doctor who couldn’t save his wife from a brutal attack. He’s funny and sweet but has his own desperate reasons for wanting the killer found.

With every lie we uncover, every secret we expose, the danger mounts. Until there’s only one thing we know for sure.

The killer is still out there. And we’re his next targets.

Wife Number One is a why choose romance, meaning the main character has more than one love interest. This book contains romantic suspense / dark themes that may trigger some readers. It is the first book in a trilogy.]]> 450 Elle Thorpe 1922760501 Meredith 0 4.38 2024

To the outside world, they’re just good friends. But the truth is, Gabriel isn’t entirely sure what they are to each other.

They were the last words my mother heard before she collapsed on the church steps, poison ending her pitifully short life.

When her new husband dies minutes later, all eyes turn to me.

There are whispers. Accusations. The verdict is split.

I murdered them both.

Or I'm the next to die.

To catch a killer, I move myself into my new stepbrother's house in the fancy town of Providence. With its million-dollar mansions and ocean views, it's a far cry from the seedy Saint View underbelly I grew up in.

But my new life delivers more than I ever could have bargained for and three men I never saw coming.

Fang, the biker gang enforcer everyone is terrified of. Everyone, but me. When he finds the bruises I've been hiding, he swears to stand by my side while I have my revenge on the men who hurt me.

Vaughn, my cocky new stepbrother. The way he looks at me is anything but brotherly. With half his dad's fortune left to me, we might both be searching for the murderer, but he's my prime suspect.

And Kian, my new roommate and Vaughn's enemy. The streetfighter is funny and sweet, but violence darkens his eyes when he hears about my past. Hiding secrets of his own, he joins the hunt.

With every lie we uncover, every secret we expose, the danger mounts.

Until there's only one thing we know for sure.

The killer is still out there.

And we're his next targets.

What’s worse than getting your heart broken by the guy you have been with for four years? Your supposed best friend is the one who hurt you too.

So what do I do? I promise myself to never get hurt again. I promise myself to have a hot single girl summer but do you think I get my wish? No. Because the hot shot school quarterback has his sights set on me and I don’t think I can stay away from those smoldering gray eyes any longer especially when he is the one making my bucket list come true.

Rocky wants my heart but I don’t know if I’m ready to put my heart on the line.

Guess what though? Jokes on me, because he already decided that I’m his. Can I trust he won’t break my heart or will I end up heart broken again.





I’ve always wanted what my parents had. A love that’s all yours. Everyone has only seen me as a ticket. Montana hits me like a hurricane with her feisty attitude, voice of an angel and curves they make a man want to sin. She’s been hurt before, she doesn’t know if she can trust me.

There are people who don’t want us to be together but I know what I want, and what I want is her. She doesn’t care that I play football. She acts like she doesn’t want me at all. I’ll prove to her that we can have it all. I’ll protect her at all costs.

I’ll prove to her that she can trust again. She thinks she’s better off alone. I play to win and her heart is something I plan to keep.]]> 305 Kassie Vander Meredith 0 4.34

My kids are a**holes.

Yeah, I said it. I said the thing no father is supposed to say about their children, and I’ll say it again because I miss my wife.

Serena’s checked out and now resides in ‘yes dear�� robot mode, complete with a new eye twitch. Reason being, the impish elves we spawned are currently sucking the life out of her—daily. Thanks to Gracie and Peyton, my patience is hanging by the last orange bulb on a very thin green wire. Thank God we’re headed to Triple Falls. A week of Ruby’s eggnog and a little change of scenery could be just what the woman I love needs to find her way back to herself—and to me. But the closer we get to packing up, the shorter my fuse becomes . . . and the more I’m starting to get ideas of taking drastic measures.

And by drastic, I mean our little goblins won’t be the only ones making Rudolph’s naughty list. I’ve had enough. I’m not giving in this time. No amount of alligator tears or fake apologies are going to cut it.

Ironically, the more I man up and take charge, the more Serena and I are starting to reminisce about the good old days, which is quickly adding up to some heated nights.

Come hell or high water, this Christmas, our kids are going to learn to appreciate the parents they’ve got because I’m getting my girl back . . . even if the two little hellions we created have to pay to bring her back to me—little f*ckers.

The Sleight Before Christmas is book #2 in The Holiday Hijinx series. While it can be read as a stand-alone, it is highly recommended that you read The Plight Before Christmas first.

*Fair Warning- Both books in Holiday Hijinx are packed with adult shenanigans, laugh-out-loud outrageous content, colorful language, adults behaving badly, as well as hefty doses of spice.]]> 240 Kate Stewart Meredith 0 4.30

When my boyfriend Cole invited me to celebrate Christmas at his step-dad’s cabin. Nothing could have prepared for what would happen next.

Griffin’s nothing like I pictured. Instead of a typical middle-aged man. I’m faced with broad shoulders, a muscular chest and a jawline sharp enough to kill.

Spine tingling grazes, and heated glances that last too long have me feeling guilty about how my body’s reacting.

That is until my boyfriend asks to share me with his step-dad

After the steamiest Christmas holiday of my life, everything feels perfect.

]]> 221559020 'Tis the season for second chances, and mine just walked back into my life wearing a perfectly tailored tux and a Scrooge-worthy scowl.

Zane Mercer—the same bad boy who used to steal my dark chocolate espresso cookies in high school—is somehow even more delicious ten years later.

Thanks to his younger brother Asher's generous investment and business mentoring, my best friend Ivy and I are finally opening our dream bakery in downtown Chicago.

Everything was sugar and spice until Zane started showing up, criticizing our plans while undressing me with those ice-blue eyes.

I can't tell if he wants to shut us down or pin me under the mistletoe.

Maybe it's the magic of the season, or maybe it's the way he keeps finding excuses to get me alone at holiday parties, but our heated arguments are starting to feel a lot like foreplay.

Behind that frosty exterior, I catch glimpses of warmth.

And when he threatens to stuff my stocking with coal for testing his legendary control? Well, suddenly being on the naughty list doesn't sound so bad.

Everyone says mixing business with pleasure is a recipe for disaster.

But as Christmas draws closer and the chemistry between us gets hotter than my bakery’s freshly baked gingerbread, I'm starting not to care what ends up in my stocking—as long as it's from him.


This is book 2 in my sweet and spicy holiday duet, Sugar & Spice. ]]> 216 Alexis Winter Meredith 0 currently-reading 4.08

]]> 221492571 My job interview started with two scowls and ended with a bang. Yeah �� that kind of bang!

There’s absolutely no way I can accept the position after the jaw-droppingly amazing and completely unprofessional things I did with the two gorgeous but grouchy men who own the buzz-worthy coffee company, Community Bean.

But then they make me an offer I can't a short-term position, more money than I currently make in an entire year, a fancy management job title, and—oh yeah—a chance to save their sinking business.

Why are they in such desperate need of help? Well, it turns out that Grump and Grumpier are as good at dealing with people as I am with quantum physics—which is to say, not at all.

Derek Brooks is all brooding intensity, with smoldering eyes that short-circuit my brain and a body that fills out custom-made suits so well I'm in danger of becoming dehydrated from constant drooling.

Jansen Bennett’s death-glare has sent multiple employees running for the hills, but for some reason, I’m dying to get behind that scowl, and for him to get behind me, if you know what I mean!

So what’s a girl to do? Take the job, obviously. But, maybe keep the “banging the grouchy bosses�� part under wraps. It’s just a fling. A reckless, completely inappropriate, hotter-than-an-extra-spicy-tamale fling, and ninety-nine percent guaranteed to blow up in my face. (There's always a chance that everything will be fine, isn't there?)

But hey, I’ll only be working with them for six months. Surely I can resist falling for two bossy, grumpy, emotionally unavailable men with killer abs and extra large eggplant emojis, right?

]]> 219270096 Camillo
She’s from a wealthy and privileged background.
And she never imagined she’d end up as a maid to a fierce mafia boss like me��
But she’s on the run and desperately needs to find safety.
And when I find out what she’s been hiding, it’s bigger than anything I’d ever imagined.
Because she has a small son—and he’s just as fragile as she is.
As I get to know them, I start to win their trust.
And my heart can’t help slowly surrendering as it melts and thuds too fast for them both.
Because when I hold her in my arms, it finally feels like I’ve come home��
But I should have known we’d never get our happily ever after.
Because someone else is just as determined to have her.
And he’ll stop at absolutely nothing to make sure he gets the evil ending he desires.

“What do I have to do to make you feel beautiful? What do I have to say to make you see yourself through my eyes? Whatever it is, I’ll do it a million times over until you believe me.��

A mafia-lite romance.
Tropes and single mom romance; Italian mafia romance books; curvy girl romance; forced proximity.
Standalone novel. HEA. No cheating. No cliffhanger. Please refer to the content note at the start of the book (via the Look Inside feature).]]> 412 Isa Oliver Meredith 0 currently-reading 3.72

]]> 220331443 As owners of an exclusive adult club, my brother’s three best friends are scorching hot and filthy rich��

and they just offered to roadtrip home with me for Christmas.

After my fiancé dumps me because “chubby girls aren’t wife material,�� Beckett, Tristan, and Ryder insist on joining me for the drive back to my hometown.

No big deal, right? I can handle a week with the men I’ve secretly crushed on for years.

At least, that’s what I tell myself�� until I accidentally confess that I’ve been dying to break free of my ‘good girl�� persona and explore my wilder side.

Instead of laughing, they propose a while we’re on this trip, my body is theirs to play with. They’ll teach me everything, and I can live out all of my dirtiest fantasies. The rules? No falling in love, and once we arrive, it’s over.

It’s risky. Spending so much time together—and learning that Beckett, the grumpiest man on earth, secretly knits—already has me dangerously close to falling for them.

Still, there’s no way I’m going to say no.

It’s the holiday season, after all. And these filthy rich Santas are about to give this naughty girl everything she asked for.

It was one night trapped with a hockey god due to a hurricane. We shared one bed too. I also ignored the little fact that Vaughn has always been my brother's rival on the ice. And when the storm cleared, so did Vaughn. Months later, he shows up in my hospital room in Lake Spark where it only takes one look at me and the man is counting back in his head, or maybe it’s my face that explains it all.

He's going to be a dad. And I didn’t tell him.

His eyes inform me that he won’t let me off easy. He wants answers to why I kept this a secret—and he quite possibly needs a scotch for his nerves too. Vaughn is soon adamant that he isn’t going anywhere, especially as he is the new General Manager of our hockey team that trains in town. He also has a list of demands that I owe him due to my secret keeping. Hence, why I move into his house. I’m not sure if developing feelings for a man with a wicked smirk is good for me or our child, but he’s becoming more than my baby daddy. And it turns out that Vaughn’s head has been working overtime, because the family image that I’ve dreamed about is the game that Vaughn seems to have been waiting to play...

Vaughn and Isla bring you a heartwarming and steamy secret- and accidental-baby romance in forced proximity setting. Waiting to Play can be read as a complete standalone and is the third book in the interconnected Lake Spark Off-Season series which is part of the Lake Spark world. For lovers of small-town romance with a touch of hockey.]]> 280 Evey Lyon 1959094173 Meredith 0 3.96

Three ruggedly handsome triplets.
And now�� my fake boyfriends.

What’s worse than finding your fiancé cheating on you with your best friend on your wedding day? Having to return to the scene of the crime.

But when my mother begs me to come back to my small hometown for Christmas, I can’t say no. It’s been a few years since I left, and I miss my family�� and the three triplets who are my brother’s best friends (and my secret childhood crushes).

What I didn’t expect was that all three Cooper brothers would offer to pose as my fake boyfriends as a way to stick it to my ex and stop the town gossips from constantly rehashing my wedding day debacle.

Only a fool would turn down an offer like that, right?

Especially when kisses under the mistletoe start to feel real, and they all get growly and possessive if another man so much as looks at me. They even insist I stay with them for the holidays when the place I booked turns out to be a dump.

But when they find the bucket list I wrote after I broke up with my ex—the very naughty bucket list—I get the biggest surprise of all.

Because they want to help me cross off every item on the list.

This is a brother’s best friends, fake dating, forced proximity holiday romance, with a spicy bucket list and an adorable, panty stealing dog. It is a complete standalone.]]> 444 Callie Rose Meredith 0 4.11

Less than six months.

That’s all that stands between me—and freedom.

I thought the longer things went on, the easier they’d get. But nothing is ever easy when it comes to Killian Abernathy.
They say the line between love and hate is paper thin . . . and I think I finally understand that sentiment. Because I don’t hate Killian. I hate what he brings out of me. The dark, dirty side of myself that doesn’t fit in with the rest of the world.

And it scares me.

He scares me.

Because the truth is so much harder to admit than the lies I’ve been holding onto.

And the truth is, maybe, instead of the Dom’s For-now, I wanted to be the Dom’s Forever.

Women constantly throw themselves at him, only further inflating his massive ego.
But I’m not one of those women—and I refuse to become one.
Sure, he’s the most attractive man I’ve ever seen. And yes, he can he make me practically cum with just his words. But I won’t be led by my physical desires.
I’m better than that.
When a young ingenue in the fetish world wants Killian to mentor her in the ways of being a submissive, I have no choice but to agree.
After all, the only reason I would say no, is if I was jealous.
But that’s impossible, because how can you be jealous for someone you don’t have feelings for? And I don’t have feelings for him . . . I swear.
But as each day passes, the lines between us are starting to blur.
And I’m afraid I may be the only one who isn’t seeing clearly . . .

After a bad date, I barely make my flight across the Pacific wearing a tight dress and high heels, giving the guy next to me the wrong impression. He thinks I’m a high-priced escort. I think he’s a jerk.

I let him believe what he wants because this drool-worthy guy with the panty-melting smile turns out to be a charming flirt.

And his indecent proposal of a few spicy hours tangled in the sheets during our layover will solve my immediate money problem.

When our explosive afternoon ends, he leaves me in the hotel suite and has his bodyguard pay me. Who does that?

Turns out he’s a billionaire hacker in charge of cyber security for the Irish Mob.
And he’s my new boss. Small world, right? Hang on, it gets worse...

We get past the accusations that I set him up and settle into a routine that includes me dragging his gorgeous naked a$$ out of bed every morning.

A sight so phenomenal I should be paying him.

When he catches me staring at his sexy physique in the shower, he punishes me in the filthiest way but that only keeps me coming back for more.

He says I’m his. But he’s mob royalty, and I'm just a special-ed teacher getting over a toxic, abusive relationship.

Then my ex rears his ugly head, and I find out how fiercely possessive and dangerous this hacker mob boss can be.

And that’s before I show him two pink lines��

Author’s note: Shattered Veil is a standalone Mafia Romance with mature themes, a possessive hacker and a DV survivor. The story includes explicit content. It is recommended for mature readers only.

Eoghan: After I pull a fast one in her Las Vegas courtroom, prosecutor Jillian Diamond gets drunk in a bar and gives me a piece of her mind. But we settle the score tangled in the sheets, where I show her I’m even better in the bedroom than the courtroom.

Only, to my surprise, I’m her first.

That changes everything, releasing a side of me I don’t know how to control.

Obsessed doesn’t begin to describe my behavior when I find a dating app on her phone and men in her DMs who want what I just got.

I will keep her from touching another man by wearing a mask to give her the fantasies she craves.

Don’t ask me how I know what her fantasies are. Or how I get into her locked apartment. Or how I spy on her through my phone.

She has no idea the attorney she hates and loves mouthing off to during the day is the same man driving her crazy at night.

Watching her. Manipulating her. Obsessing over her.

But with every touch, I’m slowly unraveling, risking everything for one more taste of my diamond in the rough.

When my enemy targets her, I’m ready to burn down this entire city because Jillian belongs to me.

Because when Cope touches me, I lose all sense. I’m no longer thinking about staying safe, I’m thinking about how my skin ignites with every glance, how I come undone with the barest brush of his fingertips, and when we give into temptation…I’m lost.

Blame it on sleep deprivation. Juggling the demands of being a paramedic while putting myself through nursing school is a lot. I’m always struggling to get ahead.

When I found a position with overnight hours, excellent pay, and amazing benefits, I didn’t hesitate to take it.

Even if it meant working in an exclusive club for billionaires where everything spicy goes.

Surrounded by very satisfied customers night after night, I can’t help but regret one I haven’t had time to date so I never found someone I trusted enough to give me a few hands-on lessons in the more pleasurable functions of our bodies.

It’s way too awkward to spread my legs at my place of employment. Besides, I can’t afford even a one-night membership.

So when my boss delivers an ornate invitation to play an entirely different game of doctor at a similar club out in Seattle, I sign the consent slip before so much as glancing at the fine print.

Bred by Billionaires is an over-the-top, spicy, why choose, age gap, MMMF, instalove romance with sword crossing and medical play.

But instead of my fiancé, three billionaires are taking my V-card.

They’re spoiling me, tutoring the runaway bride, who fled after being humiliated, a plane ticket to Paris for my should-have-been honeymoon clutched in my trembling fist.

Alone in a foreign country, I stumbled along cobblestone streets through the rain, ducking into a building at random for shelter from the storm. Please believe me, I had no idea this was a seedy theater where the audience sometimes recreates the shocking scenes on screen in the stands.

Or that after this trio of strangers publicly defiles me—and makes me like it—they’ll steal me away to their secret flat. It only has one bed, but more than enough room for all four of us to share during their seven-day crash course in discovering passion.

They're not only mending my broken heart. They're also altering my definition of love.

How will I survive without the luxury and endless orgasms I’ve grown accustomed to when the honeymoon is over?

I’m definitely not counting on my three billionaires chasing me halfway around the world in their private jet to claim me as theirs for good.

Chasing Their Bride is a spicy instalove billionaire romance featuring age gap, first time in public, chase scenes, and an innocent, out-of-her-element heroine who’s pursued by three possessive—and bisexual—billionaires. Sword crossing guaranteed!]]> 200 Loryn Fox Meredith 0 3.98

I’m willing to admit that I shouldn’t read spicy scenes in public.

He also doesn’t break stride before asking me out on a date.

From the wrong side of the tracks to the heart of a billionaire��

Leaving my hometown, I chased a single dream: work for Callahan Enterprises and build a better life for my brothers and me.

The allure of city life, with all its glitz and glamour, promised a fresh start. I was determined to leave my past in the rearview mirror.

But I didn’t bank on my demanding new boss.

Kian Callahan is everything I can’t stand: entitled, arrogant, overbearing �� not to mention a charismatic playboy.

And the worst part? He’s also my best friend’s brother-in-law. I hate knowing that I only got the job because of her.

I pride myself on carving my own path, and the last thing I need is a power-hungry a-hole getting in my way.

Too bad my body didn’t get the memo, because the chemistry is undeniable. And my attraction to the ruthless CFO�� well, it’s downright infuriating.

As much as I hate to admit it, he might just be everything I never knew I needed.

Even if I don’t want to.

Being traded to the Boston Rebels could not have come at a better time. With serious family obligations to fulfill and a contract renewal with a new hockey team on the line, I have no time for anything else. I return to Boston knowing I need to buckle down and focus on what really matters.

But the first night I’m back in town, I come face to face with Audrey, my college calculus tutor. We had a brief fling right before I was drafted into the NHL. Now, her five year old son is standing by her side, and I don’t need a tutor to do that kind of math.

Audrey insists she doesn’t want me involved in Graham’s life unless I can commit to being a dad. With everything else going on, this is the worst possible timing.

But every minute I spend with Graham and Audrey feels exactly right, and I’m left questioning everything I thought I wanted.

Because now my goals are shifting, and getting what I really want might come at the expense of the game I’ve given my entire life to.]]> 442 Julia Connors Meredith 0 currently-reading 3.84 2024

All newly minted pediatrician Jamie Malek wants is to borrow a roasting pan for Christmas dinner.

Outside, a howling blizzard. Inside, a crackling fire. Suddenly, being snowbound with the man she never expected to see again might not be such a bad way to spend a winter’s night.

]]> 221281217 all-new and addictive MFM, why-choose, snowed-in, one-bed, Christmas standalone from the USA Today & Wall Street Journal bestselling author, Tracy Lorraine.

It was supposed to be the perfect Christmas�� until it went from cozy to crowded.

A secluded log cabin with snow-covered hills and crackling fires.

Pure bliss.

Or at least that was what my best friend and I had planned.

But plans change when his twin brother decides to crash our holiday escape.

Hendrix is steady, kind, and always by my side.

Wilder is well�� wild.

He’s everything I shouldn’t want while his twin—my best friend—is the perfect guy.

Not that he’s ever looked at me that way.

Unlike his brother�� who can’t seem to take his eyes off of me.

One is my perfect match.

The other one I can’t stop thinking about.

A few days in a remote location with both is a recipe for disaster, especially with a storm brewing.

When the lights go out this Christmas, am I going to be naughty or nice�� or both?

Dear Reader,

Naughty & Nice is a MFM why choose romance, meaning our leading lady has several love interests and never has to choose to find her HEA.]]> 360 Tracy Lorraine Meredith 0 3.90

Jordan is a sweet, protective biker who thinks we eloped in Vegas the night we met. The truth is, he was just supposed to be my ticket out of my gilded prison.

I had nowhere to go, so when Jordan asked me to live with him after we got to his home in Rockland, I reluctantly agreed. After that, it was impossible to resist falling in love with him.

But every second we’re together is ruined thanks to the agonizing guilt eating away at me. I know I should just tell Jordan the truth about who I am; I just don’t want to lose him.

When Jordan doesn’t come home one night, my worst fears of losing him to a lie are nothing compared to the fear that he won’t survive until morning.

I would do anything to keep the man I love safe, even sell my soul to the monster holding him hostage.

Eli is a nightmare of my father’s creation. Now that he’s found me, he’s made it perfectly clear that he’s taking every ounce of his hatred toward my father out on me and Jordan.

I’m all too familiar with Eli’s dark side. I hate to admit that I’ve even missed his rough treatment. Being at his mercy isn’t as scary as he thinks it is.

In fact, his particular methods of tormenting captives reveals that I’m not the only one in my fake marriage hiding secrets.

It doesn’t take me long to realize that Eli just wants to inflict pain on anyone who tries to get close to him because he has so many scars of his own.

Even though he refuses to admit it, Jordan wants Eli as much as he wants me, despite his threats or how callously Eli treats him.

And I just want to find a way to save the two men who own my heart, body, and soul from my father’s wrath.

Madison's book is the fourth and final book in the Sin City Mafia series. It is a dark and twisted MMF romance. ]]> 359 Lane Hart Meredith 0 4.23

It all started with a battle of wills against a rat.

After fleeing a shattered engagement, I wanted a fresh start in New York City, but instead all I got was a tiny apartment with a communal bathroom and a rat that steals my Oreos.

Oh, and one hot night I won’t soon forget.

What I didn't expect was the gorgeous man at the bar to want his two best friends to watch us together.

How was I supposed to know they were about to be my new bosses?

"Stuck On Them" is an MFMM spicy romantic comedy where the main character falls in love with three men. There is no third act break-up.

A year ago, Jules stumbled upon the man of her dreams in a bar on New Year's Eve. After a lifetime of watching romantic comedies, she was sure she had found her soulmate. That is, until she learned he has an entire family and blocked him.

A year later, she’s having the worst day she possibly could, leaving her stuck on the sidewalk outside her place in a ballet costume, watching firefighters condemn her house because of a water main break when a little girl grabs her hand and tells her she’s her Christmas wish.

When Nate’s daughter tells Santa all she wants for Christmas is for her dad to marry the real-life version of her favorite doll, he dreads having to tell her the truth. When they run into the spitting image of the doll, ballerina costume and all minutes later, he’s floored to find that it’s his dream woman who disappeared from his life last Christmas.

Nate’s meddling sisters offer his in-law suite and his contracting skills to Jules in exchange for watching his daughter, and he jumps on the opportunity. Now, he has just a few weeks to use Christmas magic to make her realize they are meant to be.]]> 298 Morgan Elizabeth Meredith 0 currently-reading 4.00 2024

]]> 195181473 This could possibly be the worst holiday season ever��

My ex-boyfriend just booked the best suite at the resort where I work (with his new girlfriend, not me), half of the staff has called in sick with the flu (they’re lying so they can attend a huge festival in town), and my sister is driving me crazy with her incessant wedding planning.

These things wouldn’t normally be a big deal during any other season, but “Christmas�� changes everything.

And this Christmas, my “little big lie�� about a non-existent fiancé is finally in danger of being exposed to my family ��

To prevent that from happening, I decide to download The Office Guest.

It’s an app for anyone who needs to hire a “fake & attractive businessman�� to impress close family and friends.

At least, that’s what I was hoping for.

When the guy I selected bails on me at the last minute, the app promises to send me “an even sexier replacement.��

They must’ve meant “the devil wrapped in red,�� because this guy is not some random actor.

And he’s definitely not a “fake�� businessman��

He’s my former boss.

The asshole who fired me last Christmas.

Okay, now it’s officially the worst holiday season ever...

This is the second standalone novella in The Holiday Homecoming Collection.]]> 178 Whitney G. Meredith 0 3.91 2023

As the devil incarnate, this infuriating, cocky bastard never gives us the holidays off, and he honestly expects us to be grateful for his generous alternative: The Office Party.

It’s a mandatory, all-expenses trip for two weeks at a surprise luxury resort—where we still have to work twelve to fifteen hours a day.

I’m so over this��

So, I put zero percent effort into his gift. I tear the tag off whatever my sister gifts me, add a five-dollar amazon gift card, and hand it off to him.

It’s not until my sister sends me a text that I realize how terrible of a decision that was.

Georgia: Why haven’t you sent me a 'LOL' about the brand-new vibrator I got you? I really do hope that you use your boss’s face as a muse, like my note says. :-)

If that’s not bad enough, this year’s "luxury trip" will be in my hometown--the place I've avoided for years. At the resort that my grandmother owns...

If the universe gets me out of this, I will never ‘regift�� anything ever again…]]> 123 Whitney G. Meredith 0 3.70 2020
