Touch Me Bad Boy: a Dark Romance


Claire St. Rose - 2017
    My life was turned upside down the day I was told I had to marry Lorenzo Montorini--the heir of the Montorini crime family. A man with a NEED for control. A NEED for an heir. And I was going to be the mother of that child. They say no one’s happier than a bride on her wedding day. They lied. Oh, I smiled through it all but inside, I wanted to scream. I never asked to be married. Especially not to Lorenzo Montorini. I don’t care that he’s got a smile to die for. I don't care that his body is tempting me to touch him. I don’t care that our marriage is the only thing keeping our families from war. All I wanted was to scream no. To take my own life back. But when the priest asked if I will take this man to be my husband. The only words that came out were “I do.” And from the moment Lorenzo slipped the ring on my finger, I knew. There was no way he would ever let me go. Touch Me Bad Boy is a full-length, standalone romance novel with steamy hot sex, strong language, a happily ever after ending, and NO CLIFFHANGERS.

Cut So Deep


Stasia Black - 2017
    “Tell me. Are you?”Jackson Vale. My boss’s rival and the man I’ve thought far too much about since we were introduced last week.Of all the— “I’m not his,” I sputter indignantly. “I’m just his employee. He doesn’t own me.”And for some reason this sets off a flare of intensity and… satisfaction? in Jackson’s expression. That’s it, I officially give up trying to understand any of this.But then Jackson leans over and speaks so softly in my ear I can barely hear it above the falling rain. “If you belonged to me, Miss Cruise, you wouldn’t look so disgusted. True ownership goes both ways. I would own you, but you’d own me, too. A concept I’m sorry to say Bryce Gentry’s never understood.” My breath hitches and I pull back from the intimacy of his voice on my ear, only to get lost in the dark blue of his eyes.“Let me go,” I whisper. He does, but before he turns to go, those brooding eyes pierce me one last time. “I’ll be seeing you again soon.” And then he turns and is gone into the rain-soaked street, leaving me behind, breathless and confused.Warning: Contains triggers and dark themes which may be distressing to some readers.

LUCIEN: A Standalone Romance


Glenna Sinclair - 2016
    He’s never picked me for an undercover girlfriend gig before, and with good reason – my Army training has hardly prepared me for fancy dinner parties or high class weekends away. To be honest…I’ve never even worn a pair of heels. And makeup? Way over my head. But my appearance is suddenly the least of my worries, because the client doesn’t seem to have gotten the memo that we’re not actually dating. If my dad knew where Lucien’s hands have been wandering… I know we have to really sell the girlfriend thing so I can investigate his security concerns, but how on earth can he expect me to just melt into him whenever he wants? I’m not about to let his strong touch and soft lips take me over, or lose myself in his deep, dark eyes… But, I’m not totally sure I want to stop him from trying, either. Lucien Adrienne has the kind of strong, dark beauty most men only dream about – thankfully, I don’t have to dream. She’s right here. I don’t know what I was expecting when the security firm I hired suggested an undercover agent…but it certainly wasn’t Adrienne. I mean, I knew she would act as my girlfriend while sniffing out the security risks for my favorite medical patent, and I knew it would be strange to introduce her to my family, especially since I don’t often bring girls around – I just didn’t think it would be this hard. I didn’t expect her to take over my thoughts, my impulses… Adrienne is…irresistible. But, lucky for me, this beautiful woman is at my personal beck and call. Any time I need her, she has to show up. I’m sure I can find a way to make good use of that. Note: This standalone novel includes my first bundle (5 books!) for a limited time only! Enjoy :)
