     The Bad Co-Worker - #JERK I was bored and needed a new challenge. Something to keep me occupied. And one day, it all just fell into place (by accident of course). Our office was one giant playground. I dubbed myself the school bully and the ice queen was my target. It’s her own fault though; I’d never met a woman so ridiculously uptight you would need a whole army to pull the giant stick out of her butt. I had to have her. The Bad Rebound – Mr. Rebound I told myself I would no longer prey on emotionally unstable women. I don’t do relationships—I’m a selfish bastard who enjoys not answering to anyone—and relationships mean being with only one woman. My cousin, Charlie, dared me to settle down with one woman. So, I chose Scarlett Winters, the most sought-after actress in Hollywood and also the sexiest woman on Earth. I simply needed to get past the roadblock—her assistant, Morgan Bentley—the wicked bitch of the west. Between her multiple personalities and the giant stick up her ass, I should’ve seen it coming. Morgan Bentley’s after one thing, and one thing only—a rebound. That’s me. But this time—what if I want more? The Bad Brother’s Best Friend – Kicking Reality Nothing breaks my focus. I train hard, work hard, and play hard. Except for Emerson—my best friend’s sister. The girl next door turned Hollywood TV star. It started off innocent, a stupid kiss to shut her up. But then it turned into an obsession every Monday night. And I don’t know what’s harder—hiding how I feel about his sister from my best friend or watching the woman I want live a life with someone else. The Bad Hollywood Alpha - Bad Boy Rich I’m a self-proclaimed bad boy. The ultimate heartbreaker, and your daddy’s worst nightmare. The lethal mix every woman should stay away from. It started off as payback. Messing with my ex-fiancée by screwing her assistant. Plus, I was bored with the same old gold diggers. I just didn’t expect her to be my savior. The holy water ready to wash away my sins. The out-of-towner miss-goody-two shoes became my saving grace. And there’s no chance in hell I would let go of her now. No. She is mine. And I will do anything I can to keep it that way. Four full-length books about bad boys, their dirty mouths and minds, and the women who capture them.
