I used to be one of them, until they crossed the line.Now they’re after her, and I can’t let that happen.Silly girl.

    An ad for a cook and nanny at a remote ranch seems like the perfect opportunity to get away. She thought she’d learned her lesson about having a workplace romance—until she met Colson Westland, a hard, taciturn man who’s as hot as he is serious. Working for Colson and caring for his young ward, Adam, is testing her resolve to stay uninvolved and it doesn’t take long before she not only loves the little boy, but she’s terrifyingly aware she’s falling for Colson. He may be a hard man, but Jolie recognizes a soft side, one that makes her heart melt just a little too much.Ever since Jolie came to work at the ranch, the place seems lighter. Happier. And Colson has felt lighter and happier too. Caring for Adam has been a pleasure, but ever since his best friend left the little guy to his care, he’s felt a bit overwhelmed. Jolie, with her laughter and spirit, seem to be just the right touch his ranch needs. But when Adam’s grandparents sue for custody of him, claiming a bachelor’s home is no place to raise a child, Colson immediately thinks of marrying Jolie. Not for himself, of course, but for Adam. He’d do anything for the kid. It’s a marriage of convenience, just until he wins the custody battle. The problem with his plan, though, is that it didn’t include the matter of him falling in love…Mary Sue Jackson and USA Today Bestseller Leslie North invite you to indulge in a heart-warming small-town western romance with a smoking hot cowboy and the woman who tames him...

    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

    Instead, I enjoyed it. And just 2 days later, I gave in and kissed her.  I wanted to claim her in ways unimaginable.

I’ll have to break Emma’s heart,  ‘cause she’s fallen deep for me.  But the baby she’s carrying?  Could she be my forever?

     But taking that initial leap of faith is difficult when you’ve tumbled in the turmoil of your past and you know just how much it hurts to relive it. I get it. I’ve been there. I’ve made my fair share of mistakes when it comes to the dating department. And as far as I’m concerned, most men are complete assholes. So why should I waste my mine? It’ll always end the same. Or, at least, that’s what I kept telling myself as I kept my head down and focused on becoming a veterinarian. Forget them, I repeated over and over again. You don’t need them. How many times have you cried for them and they never shed a single tear for you? Maybe that voice in the back of my head had a point but what’s the point of living if you’re always on your own? Because, trust me, being alone sucks. And the constant silence of an empty apartment is a surefire way to insanity. So, why am I so opposed to Dr. Goodman? The dreamboat that fell out of the sky and practically landed on my lap due to a little airplane mix up. Because I’m afraid that he’s going to turn out like every other lowlife that’s ever shown their interest in me. And I’m not about to get my heart broken by a surgeon even if he knows how to stitch it back together again. I think I’ll just save myself the pain.

Trace From the moment I lay eyes on Kate, I want her, but I never thought the curvy beauty next door would ever look my way. When her date flakes on her, I jump at the chance to step in and replace him and show her what it's like to have a real man at her side. Her priority is her young son, and I respect that, because I respect her. There's no room in her life for a guy like me. But after one steamy night together, I can't let her go.
