     Small-town romance. Hot truck drivers/mechanics. First and forever love. TRUCKER ANGEL I know what you're whispering in the car as you pass me by. Hitchhiker. When you see me walking along the side of the road with my thumb out, you'll probably keep driving without giving me a second glance. You probably think I'm foolish. Naïve. You might assume I've made some bad decisions. You might think I'm too young to be on my own. You might be right. TRAVIS I love my job, but driving an eighteen-wheeler comes with a certain stereotype. When you hear I’m a trucker, a specific image might come to mind. Uneducated. Dirty. Perverted. Rough around the edges and a little bit dangerous. But the truth is, I’m not any of those things. In fact, I’m pretty far from it. You’d be surprised to find out I’m one of the good guys. DANCER BRIELLE Technically, I’m not a stripper. As a cage dancer, I don’t take all my clothes off and no one gets to touch me. I’m just the eye candy. And I can feel their eyes on me. I know they’re watching, but I don’t do this for them. This is my time. My life may not have turned out the way I thought it would, but I’m not complaining. From 9pm to 1am several days a week I get paid to feel sexy, to feel desired, to do what I love. I always knew I wanted to be a dancer—I just didn’t realize I’d be doing it in a cage. COLTON Erectile dysfunction—two words that can cause a collective cringe from men everywhere. The doctors can call it ‘performance anxiety’ all they want, but that’s just a fancy way of saying my d*ck doesn’t work. Just when I start to think there’s no hope for me, I see her. She’s gorgeous, sexy, and goofy as f*ck. She also looks really familiar but I can’t put my finger on it. When I find out who she really is, my world is turned upside down and everything seems to fall into place. She’s not gonna make it easy for me, but I’ve never been one to back down from a challenge. She’s convinced I won’t stick around. I’ll prove her wrong. I’ll show her I’m one of the good guys. DROPOUT MACKENNA I have everything I need to live out my dream of being a reclusive songwriter—my guitar, my notebook, and blissful silence. At least, I did until Jimmy moved in next door. He’s got bad news written all over him. And last time I got with a bad boy, it ended with me pointing a gun and pulling the trigger. Talk about going out with a bang. Jimmy makes me want things I shouldn’t want, which means I have two options: avoid him or piss him off. But no matter what I do he isn't fazed, and I'm quickly realizing there's more to Jimmy than I originally thought. JIMMY Over the past year, I’ve been called a lot of things. Slacker. Troublemaker. Party animal. I thought I was on top of the world. Turns out, I was pretty close to rock bottom. Now I have a new title: college dropout. But I’ve got a chance to redeem myself—one summer of squeaky-clean behavior at Grandma Beverly’s. Two months to prove I’m not a complete f*ck-up. And four rules to follow with the gorgeous girl next door.

     Yes Daddy Mason Ward always gets what he wants. Rich, handsome, charming. I should feel lucky to get hired as his new assistant. Except I’m the sixth girl in as many months… Demanding, intense, a total jerk. I get why everyone quits. I should hate him. I should run away. Instead, I love obeying his every wish. Especially when his hands end up on my body… I’m going to answer every single one of his commands with two simple words: Yes Daddy. Doctor Daddy Healing hands. Bad attitude. Aiden Hill is the best doctor in the region. But he’s a complete, total a-hole. I don’t care how gorgeous he is, he can’t talk to me that way. He has the bedside manner of a cocky frat boy. And he wants me to call him Daddy. If we get caught, he could lose his license. And my grandmother could suffer without him. But I can’t help letting him play doctor on me whenever he wants. I’m not sick, but I still want a check up. Dr. Daddy is going to take good care of me. Coach Daddy Cole Wood is untouchable. He’s the head coach of a new NFL team, and everyone respects him. It’s easy to see why: he’s intense, handsome, and brilliant. I’m just a young physical trainer working my first job. Secretly seeing the Coach is driving me wild. He’s twice my age, but with age comes some serious experience. He’s taking me all the way. If we get caught, it’ll jeopardize both of our careers. But I can’t help letting his experienced hands roam my skin. He’s my Daddy Coach, and he knows how to score. President Daddy Adam Clark is the hottest President ever. He’s young, gorgeous, and incredibly talented. And I’m working directly under him. Every presentation I make, he’s giving me that look. You know the one. It screams, “I want you down on your knees, praising your country.” Since I’m a good little patriot, I’ll do whatever the President wants. I don’t care if he’s twice my age. I can’t help myself. Presidents have gone down for less. But here I am, naked in the Oval Office. If the press finds out, he’ll get impeached. The country needs him, almost as much as I need him. I have to control myself around my President Daddy. Or else risk losing him, and the presidency, forever. Note: all my books are standalones and they can be read in any order. They’re safe, no cheating, and always have a HEA. Go ahead and let yourself enjoy!
