Rescued


Evan Grace - 2020
    Bromberg’s Everyday Heroes Worlds project. After spending the last few years globetrotting for her travel vlog, Gwen Malone has finally decided to come home to Sunnyville, California. Her plan was to spend time with her family and friends, and decide where to go next. The last thing she expected was to be attracted to the tattooed police officer, Maverick Graves. At her welcome home party, her sister and best friend warn her to stay away, that he’s a player and commitmentphobic. That was the plan except she saw him everywhere — sometimes with other women. That only solidified that Gwen needed to avoid him. To Maverick, Gwen was untouchable. Yes, she was gorgeous, he was very interested, but she was his boss’s daughter and he wasn’t going to go there no matter how much he wanted to. A simple favor for her dad and she was in a van with him driving along the coast. When an accident traps them together things get real, quick. When they’re finally rescued they can’t seem to stay apart, no matter how hard they try. Things can change in an instant — will they both give in to what they really want? Or deny their true feelings, losing the other forever.

Ember Flint - 2019
    30-year-old Tristan Silver was a very happy nerd until his dad got the crazy idea of merging their company with that of a former competitor turned friend, creating Silver & Gold Tech and saddling him with a very annoying, pint-sized Co-CEO that’s been bent on driving him crazy since the first time they met.Natalie might be curvy and easy on the eyes, but she’s an opinionated ball-buster that only opens her mouth to pester him like a veritable malware jammed into his system. He totally loathes her. And now his dad wants to drag him to a week-long company retreat for Christmas so they can bond and set a good example for the others.That’s not how he envisioned spending his holidays.28-year-old Natalie Gold was a very happy nerd until her dad promoted her to CEO of their company with the proviso that she must work with the most arrogant, brooding, unsociable bossy jerk on the face of the earth.The giant bastard certainly knows how to do a pair of dark-rimmed glasses justice and how to rock a five o’clock shadow, but for every inch of his hunky sexiness there’s a price to pay, because he seems to live to contradict her and as soon as he opens his mouth, he becomes the absolute bane of her existence. She totally loathes him. And now her dad wants to turn her Christmas celebration into a cheery eggnog-spiked trip to snowy hell by forcing her to share close quarters with her stuck-up Co-CEO and to play nice with him to promote good teamwork between their execs.That’s not how she envisioned spending her holidays.Silver and Gold should go together, particularly on Christmas, but Tristan and Natalie have other ideas on how to spend the Most Wonderful Time Of The Year; too bad they are bound together and surrounded by snow with nowhere to escape and nothing else to do but act like they are best buddies while they try not to throttle each other. Then again, trying not to jump each other’s bones might prove to be more difficult. Dear Reader: This is a standalone, No-cheating and HEA-guaranteed naughty and nice holiday novella that features an OTT Alpha nerd that doesn’t know that there’s a fine line between love and hate, a sassy and curvy computer geek heroine that walks that thin line with him just as obliviously, and a bickering passion that turns into a fiery love that could melt snow and incinerate mistletoe just in time for Christmas.Silver and Gold are definitely a must this year, trust me, they look amazing wrapped all over each other. *wink* *Please note that Bound for Christmas is book 23 in the ’A Forever Safe Christmas’ multi-author collection, each one of the stories is set in its own universe so the books can be read in any order and also as standalones.
