Riley
Let me start from the beginning� To stay out of jail, I’m forced to spy on Kyle Townsend, the billionaire heir to the Townsend Industries throne. My plan is simple: infiltrate Townsend Industries, get evidence of their alleged illegal dealings, and fork it over to the person blackmailing me. Then I’ll be free to leave that life of crime behind me forever and raise my niece in the peace she deserves.
But Kyle’s smarter than the average trust fund baby. He’s also ruthless and distrustful. He never lets anyone in…until one day at work. I get sick. He’s there to take care of me, feelings spark, and I end up in his bed.
He reveals his tender side. And now I’m wondering if my billionaire mark could be my perfect match.
But then he discovers the truth about me before I can tell him.

What happens when the merciless billionaire you’re supposed to be spying on finds out the truth?
A revenge marriage contract.

Kyle
This marriage isn’t one of convenience� it’s for vengeance.
With Riley as my wife, I can feed misinformation to my enemies. I’ll use her to take them down and discard everyone who threatens the Townsend name.

But what happens when the wife who’s supposed to be nothing more than a pawn ignites feelings you shouldn’t and don’t want to have?]]> 368 Tiffany Patterson D 5 4.15 Trust Me (Townsend Legacy, #1)

That was eight years ago and I haven’t seen him since. Okay fine I haven’t been home either.

As far as I’m concerned, I could go another eight years without the holiday explosion of garlands and mistletoe, holly and tinsel. I avoid Christmas at all costs. My idiot ex ruined the holidays for me. To make matters worse, everyone sided with him. Including my parents.

Everyone but Linc that is.

]]> The Alone Time 63059875 For two sisters, confronting the past could come at a terrible price in a riveting novel about a family tragedy—and family secrets—by the #1 Amazon Charts bestselling author Elle Marr.

Fiona and Violet Seng were just children when their family’s Cessna crash-landed in the Washington wilderness, claiming the lives of their parents. For twelve harrowing weeks, the girls fended for themselves before being rescued.

Twenty-five years later, they’re still trying to move on from the trauma. Fiona repurposes it into controversial works of art. Violet has battled addiction and failed relationships to finally progress toward normalcy as a writer. The estranged sisters never speak about what they call their Alone Time in the wild. They wouldn’t dare—until they become the subject of a documentary that renews public fascination with the “girl survivors� and questions their version of the events.

When disturbing details about the Seng family are exposed, a strange woman claims to know the crash was deliberate. Fiona and Violet must come together to face the horrifying truth of what happened out there and what they learned about their parents and themselves. Before any other secrets emerge from the woods.]]> 316 Elle Marr D 0 currently-reading 3.57 2024 The Alone Time

]]> The Rook 63111252
Then he left me. 

And not just left. I’m talking vanished off of the face of the Earth kind of left.

But four years later, he walks into the front door of my evil father’s house. Like Nothing. Ever. Happened. 

Even worse, my father informs me he’s my new bodyguard. 

But I’m no longer the naive girl he loved and dumped without a word of explanation.

I’m resourceful and independent. Plus, I’ve got a mean right hook. Which I introduce him too as soon as he reintroduces himself with an infuriating smirk.

And things get even crazier after that.

Rook is a love and action packed stand-alone romance with roller coaster twists, jaw-dropping turns, and a heart-bursting HEA. Perfect for people who miss ALIAS and readers who love to boo and hiss at disappearing exes who show back up at your front door.]]> Nana Malone D 5 love, love

]]> Everything's Fine 65648032 “Does love conquer all? Does it now? Did it ever? These are questions Cecilia Rabess asks in her nimble, discerning debut…The ending of Everything’s Fine is one of the best I’ve read in years.� �The New York Times

A painfully funny, painfully real love story for our time that doesn’t just ask will they, but…should they?

Jess is a senior in college, ambitious but aimless, when she meets Josh. He’s a privileged preppy in chinos, ready to inherit the world. She’s not expecting to inherit anything.

A year later, they’re both working at the same investment bank. And when Jess finds herself the sole Black woman on the floor, overlooked and underestimated, Josh shows up for her in surprising—if imperfect—ways. Before long, an unlikely friendship forms, tinged with undeniable chemistry. It gradually, and then suddenly, turns into an electrifying romance that shocks them both.

Despite their differences, the force of their attraction propels the relationship forward. But as the cultural and political landscape shifts underneath them, Jess is forced to consider if their disagreements run deeper than she can bear, what she’s willing to compromise for love, and whether, in fact, everything’s fine.

A stunning debut about “a love affair that turns inferno� (People), that is “extraordinarily brave…funny as hell,� (Zakiya Dalilah Harris) Cecilia Rabess’s Everything’s Fine is an incisive and moving portrait of a young woman who is just beginning to discover who she is and who she has the right to be. It is also a “subtle, ironic, wise, state-of-the-nation novel� (Nick Hornby) that asks big questions about the way we live now and “whether our choices stop and end with us� (The New York Times).]]> 335 Cecilia Rabess 1982187719 D 4 3.69 2023 Everything's Fine

Especially not one who is a playboy firefighter.

And definitely not my brother’s best friend�

It doesn’t require being a former cop or having my PI license to know that Don Alvarez thinks he’s smoking hot. I’m surprised the Rescue Four’s fire investigator has enough energy left to investigate fires with all the women he has lined up.

But when my brother gets injured on the job, Don’s sense of duty propels him to track down the arsonist before anyone else gets hurt. And my connections are just what he needs to help him make a breakthrough on the case.

I refuse to fall victim to another womanizer, although if teaming up with Don means getting justice for my brother, I’ll take the heat. But, wow, is it hot around here since I’ve discovered there’s more to Don than his charming bravado.

With a heart bigger than his reputation, and wicked sense of humor guaranteed to make me laugh, the sexy firefighter has a way of burning straight past my defenses.

But when the arsonist sets their sights on me, I think I’ve made the mistake of realizing my true feelings too late…]]> 334 Tiffany Patterson 1955006008 D 5 4.41 Don's Blaze : A Rescue Four Novel

On a day that, to her, must’ve seemed like the wrong place and wrong time, is where I met my destiny. Michelle Clarke. Our worlds collided and I knew instantly that she was mine. Everything in my life up until this point has been preparing me for her.

My childhood.

The eight years I spent in special forces.

]]> <![CDATA[For You (Townsends of Texas, #1)]]> 54492069
Love wasn’t in the cards for me. No thanks. It only brought the worst kind of pain. I watched my father suffer the consequences of losing the love of his life when my mother died. And I wanted no parts of any of it. Therefore, I turned my heart off to it and kept it closed for well over a decade.

Then one day, Jodi Walker entered my office. She was bold, beautiful, and ready to get in the face of anyone who got in her way. And I couldn’t stay away from her.
Maybe it was the fierce, determined look in her hazel eyes or the abundance of graphic tees she wore that declared her mood at any given moment. Quite possibly, it could’ve been the perfect soft, plump lips of hers that kept my attention for minutes on end. Whatever it was, I decided to take on her case, though it wasn’t the type my private investigative firm usually took on.

Sure, the mystery around her grandfather’s death was intriguing. But it was the dogged way in which Jodi refused to back down until she had answers, that convinced me to help her. Somehow my desire to help her turned into a burning need to protect her. The bastards that went after her grandfather came after her. The only problem was, they hadn’t figured out, they’d have to go through me first.]]> 337 Tiffany Patterson D 4 4.33 2020 For You (Townsends of Texas, #1)

]]> My Storm 60900368 I will choose to give myself over to him, but I’ll never let him know my darkest secrets�

Writing and storytelling has always been my means of escape. When the world around me was falling apart, and the adults I should’ve depended on proved evil, it was my vivid imagination that got me through. That same creativity rocketed me to becoming a New York Times' bestselling author.

But what happens when the words stop coming?

I need a spark, something that will reignite the creativity I’ve always depended on. Enter Jeremy Bennett, the dangerously sexy cousin-in-law to my sister. One look from him and all of my instincts warned me to stay far away. I know he’s into unconventional relationships. Ones that involve floggers, paddles, and rules of submission. I should stay away from him, find some other means to break free from this writer’s block.

But the way he makes my skin burn with just one look is irresistible. And that constant sadness in his eyes mirrors my own. I’m drawn to him, and while I don’t have any plans of letting him know my secrets, I may be open to submitting to him. But do I have what it takes to trust him enough to let go of my inhibitions? Will Jeremy catch me if I fall for him? And moreover, can I, with all of my brokenness, be what he needs?

Five years ago, my best friend broke my heart. Liam was one of the only people in this world I trusted beyond reason. And then he left.

But I’m not one to dwell on my pain. I’ve learned to move on to the next mission. So that’s what I did.

Until one of those missions went sideways, and lives were lost.

Now, my search for answers has led me right to the doorstep of the one man I’ve tried desperately to forget.

Liam isn’t too happy to see me when I wind up in his office. And yet, he doesn’t seem to want to let me go either. It’s almost as if he’s protecting me from something. Could Liam know more than he’s letting on? And does this have anything to do with why he left me without explanation all those years ago?

Hiking, cold weather, and cabins in the woods are not my thing. But when my two best friends beg me to join them for a trip to the mountains, I cave.

“It’ll be fun,� they said.

“You need to get out more,� they said.

Everything was fine until I realized it’s all a setup. A weekend-long blind date orchestrated with the help of their boyfriends. To say I’m annoyed is an understatement. But then he shows up, looking like a lot more than a tall glass of milk. And soon, I begin to feel that maybe this isn’t a bad idea after all.

There’s only one problem. He doesn’t seem to know he’s here to meet me. Which would be cool if I could just move on and forget I nearly made a fool of myself. Mother nature has other plans and sends a bad storm our way, locking us all in a potentially uncomfortable situation.

Latoya Reynard

Forever is a myth.

A made-up notion used to trick lovesick fools.

Now, I know better.

I fell for it once, and it was great until the boy I loved left me alone and heartbroken.

But, he’s back in our small-town, claiming he’s ready to give me the life he’s always promised.

I want to believe him because, despite everything, I still love him.

There’s just one problem�

He has no idea he’s a father.

Jasper Vanek

They say distance matters none when love is on the line.

Something I wish I knew before I walked out on the best thing that ever happened to me.

It was for the better, at least that’s what I told myself.

I was wrong.

And now after all these years, I have a chance to fix things.

From the moment I lay eyes on her, I realize the mistake I made and know that I have to have her again.

She’s mine, and I’ll do whatever it takes.

Imagine my surprise when I return not only for my woman, but also the seven-year-old son I knew nothing about.

Embarrassing yourself in front of the guy you like.

But no one accidentally gets engaged to a cowboy.

Unless that someone is me.

He hired me for a catering job, and by the end of the night, he became my fake fiancé.

When a man finally finds a woman, the proposal should be special.

Flowers, candy, and down on one knee in front of loved ones.

We got one of those right.

The moment I walked into her cafe, I was hooked.

Before her, dating—let alone a marriage—was the furthest from my mind.

The saying goes, first comes love. We managed to get it backward, and one accident gifted me with a fake future wife. There’s only one snag; I’m pretty sure I want to make her mine for real.

It makes you do things you’d never do. You hurt people and get hurt in the process.

So I don’t fool with it.

At least that’s what I tell myself, and I think I mean it. Unfortunately, the past has a way of sneaking up on you.

I was seventeen when she stole my heart—then she left.

Now she’s home and hates my guts. I guess I’m a glutton for punishment because, with Charlie, I want to break my number one rule...

Never fall in love.

Kade

When he mistakenly dialed that number seven months ago, he had no idea the woman on the other end would change his life. Girlfriends were a figment of his imagination; a few nights of fun were the best he was willing to give. But, now that he’s had her in his arms and in his bed, he’s determined to make her his forever. Even if she’s hell-bent on getting in her own way.

Jessica

She shocked herself when she allowed his sexy words to send her over the edge. It was supposed to end there. It should have ended there. But now she’s hooked—with one thing standing between her and happiness... He’s her boss. And even though she said it couldn’t be more, she can’t let go.

Sneaking around is all fun and games until one—or both—of them start to catch feelings.

]]> <![CDATA[Saddle Up Cowboy (Coldbank Cowboys, #1)]]> 55647391 They say absence makes the heart grow fonder. That’s one thing I didn’t hope for when I moved across the country. My new small-town life is just what I need. A far cry from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Screw the heart.

What I need now is to start over—a new lease on life and one night of passion. Everything was going great until the hottie from the bar shares he’s never had his hand in the cookie jar before—no big deal. I’ll never see him again. But then I show up to dinner and learn the random guy I hooked up with is my best friend’s little brother.

Parker
Embarrassment isn’t enough to describe what I felt when she walked into the dining room. I made a fool of myself. I showed my inexperience and was sure the memory would be with her forever. But there she is, just as surprised as me. She wants me to forget. Pretend it never happened.

The thing is—it did, and I’m glad about it.

Now all I want is to make up for the last time, a chance to do it right—all the time.
