Good Girl Gone Plaid
Shelli Stevens - 2013
In high school Sarah fell for her best friend’s older brother—one of the sexy, Scottish McLaughlin boys. But a painful betrayal showed her she’d been a fool to give her heart to a bad boy. At least it made it easier to leave him and move halfway around the world when her Navy dad got stationed in Japan. Eleven years later, the death of her grandmother has forced Sarah back to Whidbey Island for a month. It’s the length of time she must stay in her inherited house before she’s allowed to sell it, take the money and run. But when she sees Ian, bad as ever and still looking like sin on a stick, she can’t keep her mouth from watering. One look at Sarah stirs up the regret lingering in Ian’s heart—and never-forgotten desire lingering in his body. He should walk away, especially since divorced single mothers aren’t his style. But when she starts showing up at his family’s pub, he can’t resist a little casual seduction for old time’s sake. One thing quickly becomes clear, though. The heat between them is causing an avalanche of secrets and betrayal and nothing will ever be the same.Product Warnings: A bad-boy hero who’s good with his hands, a heroine who’s trying to be good. Contains liberal consumption of Scotch whisky, a Highland Games competition, men in kilts wielding large poles, and a potential Sarah McLaughlin of the non-musical kind.
Accidental Groom
Dana Mason - 2019
Player. Commitment-phobe. Husband? I’m Mac. But you already know that, right? You probably recognize my voice… I’m the radio host with a f***-me-now baritone who sends a shiver down your spine when you sip your morning coffee – along with the rest of Sacramento’s female population. If there’s one other thing you should know about me, it’s that I’m a lone wolf. Hell yeah, I get my fair share of the ladies. Plural. But I’ve never been a one-woman man. Not since my last screwed-up relationship. Not since the drama, the guilt, that has haunted me ever since. These days, there’s only so much hurt I’m willing to give or take. On the outside, I might seem perfect: blue eyes, built, a brave, alpha attitude. But every day is another battle with my demons. A struggle to stay afloat. And yeah, that fight’s a whole lot safer on my own. For everyone. But then I saw Kelley. She was alone, crying at the bus-stop. From that moment, I knew she needed me. I knew I needed her. Full, sexy lips. Long chestnut hair. A dancer’s body. She’s a work of art. Next thing, our clothes are lying in a heap around us. She’s moaning in my arms. She’s screaming my name. She’s shivering in pleasure. Before I know it, we’re waking up naked. Except on my left-hand is a shiny, gold ring. Kelley’s not just a hot-as-hell one-night stand. She’s my wife. I can’t deny that I’m glad she’s mine. But I’m not husband material. Knowing my track record, I’m bound to screw things up. What’s worse… It turns out there’s something she’s not telling me. She’s battling her own heartbreak and tragedy seems to follow her around. Her walls are up, and it’s going to be one hell of a challenge to crash them down. The odds are well and truly stacked against us. So this thing can’t last, can it? Even if I want it to… This is a full-length, standalone romance with some hot-under-the-collar action, no cheating, and a guaranteed HEA. For fans of R.S Grey, Whitney G. and Vi Keeland, Accidental Groom features a sexy AF alpha and a steamy will-they-won’t-they love story that will have you completely hooked.
