When You're Mine (The Gallaghers)

Sun, 05 Sep 2021 18:10:46 +0300

Take New York by storm and steer clear of serious relationships. That's the plan. That's the goal. It's easy too, now that my software company is taking off. Nothing is getting in the way of that--not even my sexy personal trainer. I don't care how sexy and intriguing she is.

Mel Dawson keeps talking me into doing things, like watching the sunset and slowing down to enjoy life.
When she trains me, and I watch her body, I'm constantly fantasizing about exploring every inch of it all night long, claiming her mouth every time she gives me a sassy reply.
I don't even know who I am when I'm with her. I'm suddenly a completely different man. But, I like this version of myself better. Mel's smart, determined, and keeps me guessing.
She's everything I need and want, but I've been burned before. I'm used to taking chances in the boardroom, just not in my personal life. How much am I willing to risk for a chance to make her mine?

Kiss Me Forever (The Maxwell Brothers)

Tue, 15 Feb 2022 09:00:46 +0200

Last night, he was a sexy stranger I couldn't get enough of.

Today, he's my new boss, who I can't seem to please.

My luck is crap. I don't know how I forgot that.

I met the most sophisticated man when he "stole" my table. We bantered and danced, and I went home with a stranger for the first time in my life. And I thought my luck was changing.

The next morning, I realize the truth. My hot one-night stand is my new boss. Gone is the playful, charming man from last night. Luke Maxwell is all business, acting if last night never happened.

I'm determined to succeed. This job is my chance to prove myself and put my past—and my ex—behind me. I'm not going to mess this up--even if he's impossible to please.

But then we go on a business trip together and end up stranded for the night. Instead of discussing work, things heat up in the elevator. Suddenly, he's claiming I'm "his," and that he wants me all for himself.

I'm not the only one who can't forget our evening together after all.

Say You're Mine (The Gallaghers Book 1)

Tue, 01 Jun 2021 19:00:55 +0300

USA Today Bestselling Author Layla Hagen brings you a sizzling new romance

I swear I didn't mean to flirt with the world-famous Brayden Clarke—especially not right in the middle of an interview for a job.

It was a slip—or perhaps a gut reaction to his smoldering eyes and deep, sexy voice.

To my total disbelief, they give me the assignment. My task is simple: advise Brayden and his band on how to communicate with their fans. Easy-peasy. Or so I thought...

I can handle the job, but the sexy lead singer who's intent on getting under my skin might be too hot to resist.

But our lives are too different. His life is under constant scrutiny. I thrive on freedom and spontaneity. I like exploring the streets of New York and meeting up with my siblings without needing security detail.

But when we're together, all our differences fade, and I can't get enough of this man. And he won't quit until he makes me his.

But the Adventure Park is my family's life's work, and I'm defending it no matter what. Even if I have to go toe to toe with Maddox and his infuriatingly sexy swagger. I challenge him every way I know, but then he switches strategies.

Yes, the nerve of the man! He starts flirting with me! I'd like to tell you it didn't work…but it does.

Then a blizzard traps us in my tiny cottage, and I see a different side to this business mogul. After I stupidly hurt myself, Maddox surprises me by taking care of me. You learn a lot about someone when you're trapped in a one-bedroom cottage.

Loving The CEO: a friends-to-lovers romance (The Whitley Brothers)

Mon, 11 Nov 2024 19:50:19 +0200

When I find out on my wedding day that my fiancé is cheating on me, my whole world comes crashing down.

The only bright spot?

My best friend Leo is by my side every step of the way, offering his unconditional support — including a temporary getaway, which I so badly need right now.

Once in Boston, he invites me to stay with him until I get back on my feet. Temporarily, of course.

And I don't even think twice before agreeing.

But I quickly question if this was the right thing to do.

Did I forget to mention Leo is the hottest man on the planet?

And now his hotness is front and center, as there's plenty of opportunities to spy on those sexy muscles when he works out in his home gym...or when he gets out of the shower.

Then the oddest thing happens… Leo offers to be my dating coach to 'help me get back into the game'.

On our first night out, I break out in goosebumps at the lightest touch or seductive smile. And when we get back to his place, well, we take the coaching a little too far and I have the hottest night of my life.

The question is, am I willing to risk my friendship with him for something more? Especially when I'm not even sure I'm ready for anything at all…

Enchanting The CEO: A roommates-to-lovers billionaire romance (The Whitley Brothers)

Wed, 20 Mar 2024 09:15:28 +0200

She's a white-picket-fence kind of girl, but I only do casual. My first mistake? Asking her to be my roommate.

Gabe

When someone's down on their luck, I like to help out. Diane needed a place to stay, and my attic was empty. How hard could it be to have a temporary roommate?

It turns out—very hard.

Living with her is turning out to be physically impossible. Every time she saunters through the living room, I can't help but want her. Whenever she gives me sass, I fantasize about kissing that mouth until she begs for more.

But she is my employee's sister and that is a line I can't cross…or can I?

Diane

At first I was a little leery about accepting Gabe's offer, because he's my sister's boss. But Gabe is the best. He's not only generous and fun (and hot!), but also considerate.

One night after dinner in the city he does the gentlemanly thing and walks me to my door — only, I manage to stumble, rip my dress and flash him my various lady parts.

It's a full-on disaster! Or so I think.

The man gives me the hottest kiss of my life— toe curling, sparks-flying, panty-melting hot. Even though I've just been through the break-up from hell, I can't resist his charms.

But I don't want to embarrass my sister by getting involved with Gabe. Besides, he and I want different things in life.

Just this once, though, I'd love to throw caution to the wind…

after hours, I know I've gone too far. And when I join Scarlett on a ridiculous haunted tour of the city, I'm certain I've lost my mind. She's become my addiction. I want to explore those curves, find out her deepest desires—and make them come true.

But it's when she offers to teach my daughter how to bake, I know I'm in wayyyyy over my head. When the three of us are together, I get a glimpse of the family we

could be.

The question is, are we both ready to put our fears behind us?

And to think, it all started with a little flirt.
