Always For Him
Lauren Milson - 2019
What about bad things? I’m alone on Christmas Eve, I just bombed an important interview, and my roommate is throwing a wild party I wasn’t invited to. That’s when someone knocks into me while shopping and I’m literally thrown into the arms of the most gorgeous man I’ve ever laid eyes on. And it turns out, he isn’t a total stranger. He’s an acquaintance from my past, but he’s not a small-town boy anymore. He has big, rippling muscles. A smile that makes me weak. And smoldering green eyes that drive me positively insane right on the spot. The best part of all - or the worst, if you’ve got my kind of luck? He says he’s whisking me away to a glitzy Christmas Eve party in the mountains. I should say no. I should say I can’t stay. Men like him don’t go for girls like me, and I’m only going to get hurt. But the look in his eye tells me once he claims me, he's never letting me go…
It’s an insta-love Christmas with an older, possessive alpha and a sweet, curvy younger woman.
Always For Him is a super steamy, super sweet insta-love holiday romance with an HEA and always no cheating. Enjoy! xx, Lauren

The Rancher’s Second Chance
Mary Sue Jackson - 2019
She’s managed to carefully plot out her life, creating lists along the way to keep her on track: Leave small town. No more cowboys—especially him. Get educated. Don’t even think about him. Become a professor. So far, she’s put a check in every box but the last. When her family ranch in Texas goes to her after the death of her father and brother, she’s forced to return home to put things in order and to make sure the property doesn’t get into the hands of her shady cousin. Enter Cole Baker. Tough, hard, distant. Sexy. The kind of guy you’d want standing between you and an attacking bear. Or in your bed. He’s definitely not on Sammie’s to-do list. But when the two of them are thrown together to save the ranch, her list begins to look not quite so important. No one had ever mistaken Cole for one of the good guys. In and out of trouble his whole life, his one brush with respectability came during the brief time he and Sammie dated in high school. Now, fresh out of the army, he finds himself suddenly navigating the world of single parenthood and is desperate to give his son stability. He needs a job and a place to stay, so when Sammie offers him the role of running the ranch, he swallows his pride and agrees. All his life he’s let down everyone he loved, so he’ll try to focus on the job, and definitely not think about how beautiful Sammie is, how goddamn cute all her lists are or how good she is with his son. It’ll only end in heartbreak, just like before… right?
