Stroked
Lena Lucas - 2020
Mesmerized. Obsessed.Daisy walked into that bar on New Year’s Eve looking like she wanted to run in the other direction, like she was out of her element.And it made me desire her even more. She seemed shy, so very innocent, and young… maybe too young for me.But I knew nothing could keep me from her. So I approached her with every intent that no matter what, I’d make her realize we were meant to be in each other’s life. We spoke for hours, nestled in the corner in our own world.It was perfection, and the first time I ever felt complete.And then I kissed her, that age old tradition when the clock struck midnight on New Year’s. I didn’t expect her to wrap herself around me. I didn’t expect her to whisper for me to take her home.But what Daisy didn’t know was that she’d awoken something in me that I didn’t know was dead. She was the first woman to make my heart start beating, to make me fall in love. It was fast, instantaneous. It was the feeling a man got when he bonded with a woman, when his soul imprinted on hers.I was possessive, territorial. No one would tell me it was too fast. Not when nothing had ever felt more right.At the end of the night, until the end of the world, Daisy would know without a doubt that she was mine and mine alone.Lena’s note: I know you like them fast and right to the point so don’t worry, this one gives you all the goods but with a healthy dose of romance thrown in. An age gap celibate hero and virgin heroine story to whet your appetite! Enjoy this good old-fashioned safe smut-fest.

My Heart & Soul
Cameron Hart - 2019
Like the fact that my feet seem to catch on everything, or that sometimes I get really animated when I talk and end up flinging my arms into things. I swear, I really do try to prevent these sorts of things from happening, but I usually don’t realize what’s happening until I’m face first on the floor, or in this case, dropping a plate of blueberry pie on a very pissed off Mr. Humphry. Just as Mr. Humphry threatens me, I hear a deep, rumbling voice over my shoulder. "Enough," he says. Once Mr. Humphry leaves, a large shadow falls over me. I feel the heat of someone crouch down next to me. I can’t look up, knowing it’s the guy who told Mr. Humphry off. I can’t explain it, but I feel like once I see him, everything is going to change... NIKO: My grandfather told me that Russians love fast, fierce, and forever. I never believed it until I saw her. With long, auburn hair woven in a pretty braid and tossed over her shoulder, deep green eyes sparkling with excitement and laughter, creamy skin dotted with freckles that I want to lick, she was truly a vision. And then there were her curves. F*cking hell, her curves. Gorgeous. Mine. It wasn’t just her body though. One look at her and I felt something break inside me. It literally hurt to look at her, but I couldn’t get my fill. I needed more. Needed her to fill the hole she just created in my chest.

As always, there's a guaranteed HEA, no cheating, an epilogue that's sp sweet, it'll give you a toothache!
