Before I Ever Met You
Karina Halle - 2017
I first met William McAlister when I was just a teenager. He was handsome, had a beautiful wife and was on the verge of success, having just joined my father as his business partner. Mr. McAlister was full of smooth charm, but back then he was barely a blip on my radar. Just a family friend. Fast forward ten years: I’m 25 years old and a single mom trying to make things right for her seven-year old son. I’ve made some mistakes, grappled with my demons and now I’m back in the city of Vancouver, getting a second chance at a better life. I’ve started by working for my father’s production company as an executive assistant. My first day on the job and I already know I could have a promising career there. That is until I see Will McAlister for the first time in a decade. Now recently divorced and as sophisticated as always, Will has gone from being my father’s friend and business partner to something so much more. We’re both older, for one thing, and he just oozes this worldly confidence and stark sexuality. Combined with his tall, muscular build and sharp suits, strong jaw and bedroom eyes, Will has turned into one hell of a distraction. A distraction I’m having a hard time staying away from, considering his office is right across from my desk and I work with him in such close proximity. But it’s just a harmless crush, right? It’s just an innocent fantasy of screwing him on his desk, right? It can’t ever be more because he’s my father’s best friend, business partner, and my boss. Right? Wrong. NOTE: This novel is a light-hearted, swoony read. It doesn't contain any cheating but it does have ample amounts of sex and swearing.

Gael Vivas broke her heart when he callously rejected her, but now he’s back, and Carrie’s going to do whatever it takes to prove him wrong. He does want her, and she’s going to leave him begging for more. Only revenge is a dish best served cold, and there is nothing cold about what Carrie feels for Gael. It’s red hot and steamy, and if she’s not careful, she’s going to find herself as heartbroken as ever by the untouchable Spaniard. He reached out and took the vodka from her, placing it on the bar. “You are upset.” She took in a deep breath. He was right, and she was annoyed at herself for feeling that way. For letting her emotions control her. She’d spent six years learning to contort her feelings into an obedient maze of sense. Now, they were running away from her, as though she were seventeen and naïve again. “I just need my own space,” she said finally. “Would you please go?” “You should have thought of that before you started this.” “Started what?” She shrugged, aiming for complacence. “What happened between us was just sex. Two people who wanted that moment of enjoyment. It’s done. Why put any more energy into analysing it? You didn’t know who I was, but you knew what I was, and what I wanted.” “And what are you, amante dulce?” “A woman,” she whispered. “I’m not a kid anymore. Some stupid, fat, needy child desperate for romance from someone like you.” “No,” he agreed, closing the distance between them. “You are no longer a child.” He kissed her before she could guess what he intended, his lips hard on hers. “You are an adult, and you’ve entered into a very adult game. Do you want to play, Carrie? Are you really willing to fight with me?” Her body softened against his. Desire tore through her. “Yes.”
The Billionaire And The Nanny (Book Two)
Paige North - 2017
Never. Then I find out I have to take care of a baby I didn’t even know existed…but I won’t let it change my life. This baby is nothing but a small blip on my radar. But the nanny…f*ck, she’s hot. And according to her resume, she loves “learning new things.” If there’s any reason to keep the baby longer than necessary, it’s to make sure I see her voluptuous body every day. The fact that Bailey’s more gorgeous than she even realizes, that she looked like a deer in the headlights when I stared her down at her interview, makes my c*ck twitch. She doesn’t even realize her own beauty which is sexy…as…hell. She drives me insane with that innocent, sexy look. No one ever talks to me like the way she talks to me. No one ever challenges me. No one ever looks so f*cking hot while doing it either. I tell myself it’s just infatuation. I can’t get involved with her, I know that much. I only want to taste her. And I’m pretty sure she wants to taste me, too. A pretty little thing like her is too good to pass up, especially with that bite of spunkiness in her. Before long she’s mine, her ripe young body responding to my every touch, my every kiss, my every thrust. But the more time I spend with her, the more real it becomes. And the more I see her with the baby, the more I start to think that maybe we could be a real family. But that’s impossible. Isn’t it? Bailey Together. Me and the billionaire. Sharing this mansion. With his bedroom just down the hall from mine. He’s the boss from hell, expecting me to keep the baby quiet at all times. When I explain to him that babies cry, he becomes incensed. “You have a mouth on you, Miss Rainville, and I have better uses for it.” I know I should be disgusted, but I’m not. Not even close. The man smells delicious, his late-day stubble creates a dark mood over his features, and my body shakes when he stands so close to me I’m almost positive he’s going to kiss me. What’s even crazier is that I actually want him to. The man who hired me, pressing his lips against mine. I wouldn’t mind at all. I want this man more than I’ve ever wanted anyone in my life -- he infuriates me like no one else, and that sends currents running through my body. The balls. The nerve. The cockiness. He thinks it’s all about him. I shouldn’t be interested in him at all. And yet I can’t help thinking there’s more to him than what he shows the world. More than just a cocky, rude billionaire, the kind of man whose heart is so cold, he could turn away his own child. I know that’s not who he really is. Know that he could be a great dad, a great family man. I just need to prove it to him. And I’ll do whatever it takes, even if my heart shatters along the way… The Billionaire And The Nanny (Book Two) is a standalone alpha billionaire single dad romance with a guaranteed HEA.

Blind Reader Wanted
Georgia Le Carre - 2017
I was born into darkness. Just like a puppy, only my darkness is eternal. Everyone else sees a world I can only imagine, but hey, don't pity me. I don't. I've got a lot of imagination, and I’ve made my world beautiful more beautiful that you can know. When I was a small child, my mother said I used to run into furniture, and if I was not too badly hurt, I’d get back up and continue running down the same path. When I grew older I understood that the world is not built for blind people. I needed a white cane and I needed to trust my bestie, Elaine, and jump when she yelled, “Puddle”. Sometimes, just for the fun of it, she’d yell puddle and there would be no puddle, but generally our system worked well. Now, I’m all grown up and she tells me that the most mysterious man in Durango Falls has stuck a job vacancy on her noticeboard and that I should apply for it. Apparently Kit Carson needs a blind reader. To be honest it sounds a bit like those times she yelled puddle and there was no puddle. But what the hell? I’ll give her a laugh and jump once again. This is the story of what happened when I jumped. Kit. I came to Durango Falls because it was the perfect place to hide. The townsfolk here don't like strangers and I don't like people. So I don’t talk to no one and no one talks to me. Suits me just fine. For five years now I’ve been livin’ alone at the edge of this forest. Just me and the wolves I’ve adopted, but this winter my soul has started hankering for something more. I know it’s sure as hell ain’t for the warmth of a woman’s body. I’m done with that. The military made me into a fuckin’ monster and I wouldn’t put any woman through that. Not even a whore. She’d have to be blindfolded to enjoy herself. Maybe I’m just hankering for a woman’s sweet voice reading to me the way my mother used to when I was five. Just before she died. Think I’ll advertise for a blind reader. A female blind reader. That’s what I thought I wanted. Well all that shit went out the window when I laid eyes on her. Now this woman’s body is all I can think about …
