“Ultra-hot and steamy forbidden Christmastime romance with a side of angst.” ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - kymagirl

“So yes, this was oh so yummy in all the good smexy parts and times and just what you want when you want something like this. He kinda killed me how he pushed her away for years and that hurt lingers in the first scenes here so that gutted me a bit. But he FO SHO made up for it. The one catch scene. Yes, please. So good!” ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - justme83

I’ve been in love with Levi for as long as I can remember. My story should be about two best friends who grew up, side by side, got married, and live happily ever after.

But that’s not how it played out.

He and my big brother finishing high school was the beginning of being held at arm’s length, and ever since it’s been an infuriating, unrequited love, despite my best efforts to move on.

This Christmas Eve, instead of enjoying a glass of wine and my fuzzy slippers, I’ve driven through the snow to my brother’s best friend’s house, on a ridiculous last-minute gift-related mission.

Now I’m inside his gorgeous new home, looking through boxes, and despite being stuck overnight because of the snow, it’s getting hot in here.

The gorgeous, muscle-bound bane of my existence has my head spinning, and for once, he’s not giving me the cold shoulder.

Do I dare let myself hope that after all these years, there could really be something there? Or am I living out yet another fantasy in my head?

If only he’d deck my halls…


Author’s note: ICED IN is a steamy holiday read full of spice to keep you warm during the cold winter months. There is no cheating, no cliffhangers, and all the HEA you could hope for.

Cookies for Santa

There’s only one cookie he’s interested in…

Wynter
Sorry to be a seasonal buzzkill, but this year I’ll be un-aliving anyone who plays a single bar of that freaking Mariah Carey song.
I’m supposed to be forgetting about my ill-timed birthday while sipping on cocktails poolside on a tropical island with my besties. Instead, my friends aren’t available, and I’ve thrown a hissy fit of epic proportions with my boss.
Oh, and did I mention I’m snowed in?

Nick
I’ve got a lot on my mind, which is not unusual for me on Christmas eve, but the pressure is really on this year. Now that I’ve found Wynter, it’s as though I’ve kicked into a higher gear. As I raise my fist to knock on the door of the remote cabin, something shifts in my bag of tricks, and I fight to smother the grin tugging at my lips.
You see, I know exactly what Wynter wants and needs. It comes with the territory, and lucky for her, I’m a giver. In more ways than one.
Right now, I have to win Wynter over and convince her to stick with me, then all will be right with the world.
Wish her luck resisting me.
She’s going to need it.

This is a standalone novel with a guaranteed happily-ever-after, and no cheating. Reader discretion is advised 18+.

Running Hot - Fast Love Series, Book 3

What would you do if you were on a first date with hottest man you’ve ever laid eyes on, and he gets the filthiest text imaginable? I’ll tell you what I did—ran out the front door as fast as my legs would carry me.

Which is ironic really, because six months later, when I thought I’d never see him again, he’s suddenly training me for a six mile race and it seems like the running never stops.
Sparks fly between us in the gym and on the road. But are they the real deal?
Because I seem to be spending a whole lot of time running—from my attraction and from him.
Turns out he’s grumpy and stubborn as well as mouthwateringly muscled. These just happen to be three qualities that set me off like nothing else. Even if I’m extremely wary of him, he seems to have a pull that gets to me, whenever we’re together. Which is pretty much every day.
And to top it off, his name is Chase.

Thing is though, I’m not exactly built for speed….

Running Hot is the third installment in the Fast Love Series, a laugh-out-loud sexy romance featuring a man in over his head, a woman giving him the run around and a whole lot of pounding…the pavement of course.
Steamy romance right to the last word, and a happily ever after guaranteed.

#Finn- Rich City Boys Book Two

Sometimes the best strategy is to deny the battle. Shut it down. Walk away. That helped me to survive and worked for a while. Now the loneliness makes me feel hopeless, but that’s the way I’ve set my life up. And I have no idea how to change. 

When Poppy finally decides to get out of the city and try to screw her head on properly, she heads to small-town Calabash Bay to paint her brother’s riverfront weekender. What she doesn’t count on is catching feelings for the place, the town’s people, and most concerningly, her brother’s gorgeous but broken best friend, Finn.

Especially since Finn fled the city himself, under dire circumstances, and has been licking his wounds in the wilderness for the last few years. Will the explosive chemistry between the two and the fast bond they form, be just the thing to repair Finn’s broken heart and soul? Or will ghosts from the city conspire to keep them apart?

#Damien- Rich City Boys Book Three

I’ve known for a while that my life needs to change. My lifestyle is incompatible with a meaningful relationship, a real connection with someone.  I mean, I’ve been groped twice, propositioned three times, and, ahem, serviced in the alley behind my bar in the last week alone.

When Damien decides it’s time to shake things up, he undertakes a major business investment and suddenly finds himself working alongside the beautiful and enigmatic Chloe. He’s suddenly taking every opportunity to cross paths with his floral artist and inventing reasons to see her. He has his sights set on what he wants, and nothing will stand in his way.

Except, perhaps, Chloe herself, who keeps her distance with good reason and promises to be the challenge of a lifetime. Can Damien convince the object of his affection to look past their business relationship and see him as the man he wants to be?

Rich City Boys – #Damien is the third standalone novel in the steamy Rich City Boys contemporary romance series. If you like sexy Scotts, cocktails, and wildflowers, start reading now. A happily ever after is guaranteed.
