    I don’t have time for anything but my bustling shop. Fate didn’t ask me though, and attraction turns into some much, much richer.This woman is mine from the moment she walks in. Deal or no deal, I’m playing for keeps.

    But when he finds a sexy stranger acting as the temporary caretaker for his childhood home, all thoughts of baseball disappear. She won't fall for another player After losing her savings to a swindler ex-boyfriend, Josie Vance moves to Last Stand to start fresh where no one knows her unhappy past or the con that bankrupted her. But her peaceful healing time evaporates when the homeowner’s son arrives and throws himself into life on the farm—and charming Josie. She can’t risk an affair that draws attention to her or her past. Especially not when the public's fascination with the baseball-playing Ramsey clan is at an all-time high. Can she keep her secrets, her low profile, and her heart too?

    Just another twenty-something girl, living the dream. That’s what I tell myself every morning. That I’m successful, self-aware, and well-balanced. It's just a tiny fib. I would be all of those things, if I had friends who didn’t work with me at the bank. And if I made it to pilates more than once a quarter. And if watermelon slushies weren't the main source of nutrients in my diet. It wouldn’t hurt if I’d had sex in the last year, either. (My best friend insists Jorge the Nightstand Boyfriend doesn’t count.)But when you know where you're going, you don’t need to enjoy the ride. Right?Even if some teeny part of me did want to fool around, Max Donovan would be the last guy I’d call. Sure, he made the indie video game that broke the internet. And yeah, his eyebrow piercing’s sexy, in a ‘what-are-you-in-a-band?’ kind of way. And fighting with him gets me going faster than Jorge on bezerker mode…He’s still colder than a cactus and twice as prickly. And I’m not talking about his face, because the guy’s barely old enough to shave. It’d really be best if we just ignored each other. Which is a problem, because Max Donovan is my new biggest client.So what happens when the girl who lives to work meets the guy who was born to play?Game on.

    His little sister, Becca, was in trouble, and I was the only one he could trust.But maybe he shouldn’t have because he doesn’t know the truth. During my last deployment, Becca had secretly written me letters that made me believe we shared something. Something powerful. We had a connection. But maybe not strong enough because when I returned to Merlot, she was seeing someone else and I was thankful I didn’t need to violate the bro code.Chris asked me to protect her in his absence. To handle the guy that was stalking her. The same guy she’d been dating. I did what I had to do to keep her safe and didn’t mean to fall in love in the process.Screw the bro code. If everything worked out, she’d be with me when all was said and done, and she would never be scared again.

    But when the guy interviewing me turns out to be the same guy I mowed down not twenty-four hours ago on the slopes, it seems like the universe really is conspiring against me.Markus happens to be the yummiest specimen I have ever seen cutting up the powder. He's irresistible and things between us are hot enough to melt snow. But when his ex-girlfriend shows up, that's my cue to nope on out of there...I won't be put on ice for any man; not even one who fills my dreams and makes me wish I was his own personal snow bunny.#MeltMyPantsOff #SnowJob #YesPlease #HappilyEverAfterIt's the New Year! Time to ring your bell with some hot and hunky resolutions! Join 15 of your favorite romance authors as their stories get off... on the right foot this year.

    Sorry, Tiff. It’s over. My ex dumped me with a text. That's okay, I met a hot blonde. Yep, he was hot all right. Enough to make me forget about Andy as I ran my gaze over his godlike features. Strong jaw. Muscles that were evident even beneath the expensive material of his suit. He needs a favor. What do I have to lose?

    With his PA. So I did what any jilted bride would do... The wedding might be cancelled but the luxury accommodation was still booked. I decided I didn’t need a man. I’d marry myself, have the honeymoon, celebrate me. I’m alone in the lodge in the Rocky Mountains I’d booked for our Christmas wedding. But when I wake the next morning, there’s a man in my kitchen. It was his scent I noticed first, because I’d never forgotten it. One look at him and my heart threatens to detonate in my chest. It’s Hunter. My first crush. My brother’s best friend and business partner. My ex-fiancé’s cousin! Turns out, not only does he own the house, but we’re trapped by a snowstorm. And I’m supposed to be healing my betrayed heart. But Hunter looks at me like all his Christmases have come at once, And since the best way to get over a man is to get under one... It might be snowing outside, but inside, things are about to get very steamy.

    For him, at least. Me? I didn’t even know I was on a date with the guy. Honestly, I probably would’ve botched it up if I did. Instead, I just dazzled him with how awkward and odd I am—exactly the kind of qualities any man is looking for in the new PR manager assigned to him, right? Seriously, story of my life. I regrouped though, you have to give me that. Now, all I have to do is not fall hopelessly in love with the hot, gritty, good-deed-doing man while working with him over the next few weeks. Yep, easy peasey… Gary: Talk about memorable first meetings. It would be just my luck that the smart, sweet woman I thought was my blind date would turn out to be the PR guru from New York attached to my upcoming project. Here I thought the universe got it right for once. That’s okay though, I actually like this better. I figure a few weeks working on this campaign I’ve put my blood and sweat into will be a great way to get to know her better. Sure, there’s a few hurdles to navigate past here. And yeah, I realize her living a thousand miles away from me isn’t even the biggest one… Author’s Note: This brand new sweet & steamy standalone short is actually a crossover novella with cameos (aka meddling) by a few characters you may recognize from the Irresistible Curves series (Claiming Her Curves and Capturing Her Curves) and the Untouchable Curves series (Curvy Seduction), not to mention a quick run-in with the fabulous matriarch of the His to Claim series herself. So many worlds colliding, so much fun making it happen. You don’t have to have read any of the other books to read this standalone, but if you have read them, I hope you enjoy getting to catch up with them all as they meddle the heck out of Laney & Gary’s hot happily-ever-after.
