Low Country Daddy


Lexi Whitlow - 2018
    No commitments. No family. Until baby Emma showed up on my doorstep... I was just a man and his boat, wild and free, roaming the Carolina coastlines.  I wasn't tied down or bound to anyone. Until she appeared — the most beautiful girl I'd ever seen.  Bright green eyes, just like mine. And a smile that melted my heart.  Emma, my baby girl, abandoned at my estate in the middle of a scorching day.  That was the day my world changed. And the day I needed Maddie more than ever. Maddie's a single mom. She's been through hell.  And she's the most beautiful, smart-mouthed woman I've ever met.  When she offers to help me through the sleepless nights,  I can't refuse her. Soon, Emma isn't the only person I want to cherish and protect. And Maddie is making my nights sleepless in a whole different way. Somehow, they’re becoming the family I never expected.  When custody for Emma is in jeopardy — and Maddie's future is on the line,  I know I was a man meant to be tied down. And I'll do anything to keep us all together. Low Country Daddy is the sweetest, steamiest beach read you’ll need for the month of June. School is out, the pool is open, and this hot single dad is sunbathing shirtless on his boat. Lexi hates cheating and cliffhangers, so you won’t find that here. Enjoy!

Picture Perfect Lie


Marquita Valentine - 2018
    All Knight King wanted was to leave his hometown behind. I never expected to end up in Castle Beach, surrounded by a family who believes that I’m not only their brother’s wife, but the mother of his infant daughter. I can’t tell them the truth—Knight and I met only three days earlier, during a layover in Atlanta. He was headed out to fight in a war that hardly anyone talked about anymore, and I was headed back home to a family who pretended that I didn’t exist. He helped me with my baby. He kept us safe while we slept. We shared lunch and dinner… and I spilled all my secrets to him. Then he gave me an address, along with an offer I couldn’t refuse. *** Six months later he’s back to bury his brother, and my lie is about to be exposed. Only Knight doesn’t say a word. He goes along with the charade, and each day we spend together, pretending to be husband and wife, it’s getting harder and harder not to believe in our lie. Could our picture perfect lie turn into a picture perfect forever?
