Finding herself in debt after her efforts fail to bear fruit, however, she bounces from one temp job to another until she meets Garrett, the owner of the very company where she just had a car-crash interview. Garrett Green is a billionaire, and modern cowboy; a gorgeous, infuriating collision of designer suit and Stetson, and a single dad to boot. He and Karla hit it off immediately, and unbelievably to her, end up in bed together! Soon after, though, and it seems like his talk of wanting to hire her was all hot air – Was Garrett after one thing only? Six weeks later, fruitlessly spent trying to put him out of her mind, Karla realizes she’s pregnant! Karla has never been one to give up easily – so much so that she drives four hours out to the billionaire’s ranch to give him the low-down. Poignant revelations quickly follow, as Karla learns that she is pregnant with not one baby, but two! Can Garrett – part-time cowboy, full-time single dad – right the wrongs, and convince Karla that his heart is in the right place? Will he earn a second chance?

     Academy Investigator. Top agent at the Magic Elite Investigators Department. If only my real biography were half as glorious as the one in my head. Instead, I’m Willa Silvers, a clumsy, disaster-prone eighteen-year-old and daughter of two powerful M.E.I.D. agents. Naturally, expectations are high as I, the Infinite Level Mageri Mage, embark on my investigatory career, but I’m already running into complications. With my unwieldy magic that has a mind of its own, and being paired with the powerful, sexy, rich jerk who couldn’t care less about "partnership", I hope completing our assigned mission is no problem. Silly assumption. Our mission? Locate four ancient daggers, hidden in the depths of four of the most elite academies in the world. It’s our job to dedicate one year to the search for each mystical dagger by attending the various schools and blending in as students. The catch — because there’s always a catch — is that we're not the only ones after these legendary weapons and if each one isn’t retrieved within the designated year, the entire world will be annihilated by eternal life-sucking smoke. Daggers and smoke...a lethal potential future for all of us if I make a single mistake. All Written Work by Quinn Ashwood X Avery Song are NOT Reverse Harem. This is a YA/New Adult M/F romance
