  Susannah Fletcher has everything a young lady could wealth, the attentions of well-to-do duke, and a reputation as spotless as an angel’s petticoats. Yet, she would throw it all away for one opportunity to perform her music on stage–scandalous as that may be. Which is precisely when the rich and menacing “Wolf of Mayfair” makes her an offer she couldn’t possibly refuse… Born on the streets of London, Rafe Winters knows only ruthless ambition. But he’s missing one respectability. It’s within reach… if he can draw the polished aristocrats to his establishment with a classically trained musician, and just a soupçon of mystery—like the flame-haired Susannah. Of course, he’ll have to make it worth her while. After all, he’s not a complete beast. Now Susannah performs in a red cloak as the enigmatic “Red Duchess,” and all of London is entranced—along with Rafe. He promised her he’d do everything to protect her reputation on stage. But off-stage, the wolf is waiting for Susannah to stra...

  One Bossy Disaster Nicole Snow Publication date: September 20th 2023 Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Romance A wild twist of fate throws together two total opposites in this steamy and hysterical grumpy sunshine romance from Wall Street Journal bestselling author Nicole Snow. Trust me, I’m not falling for a human porcupine. I don’t do older men with baggage a mile long. Billionaires? Nope, I’m Miss Independence, thank you very much. And when a man with the emotional intelligence of a cucumber decides to boss me around? Hoo boy. Shepherd Foster and I are utterly incompatible. He still can’t get over the day we met when I questioned Mr. High and Mighty’s judgment. He’s also holding the key—and the moolah—to my animal rescue dreams. I’m only putting up with this torture for the cute otters, I swear. And we’re only camping together so I can prove him deliciously wrong. My ideas will outshine Seattle’s grumpiest egomaniac. If only Shepherd’s scowls and barbed words w...

  Block Shot by Kennedy Ryan is now live!  From award-winning author Kennedy Ryan comes the steamy, powerful second installment of the Hoops trilogy.   If Jared Foster had a dollar for every time Banner Morales made his heart skip a beat—the heart everyone assumes is frozen over—he’d be richer than he already is. He’s found success as a sports agent by always assuming “no” means “I’ll think about it.” And he knows Banner’s thinking about him. Her simmering anger? The way she puts him in his place? Foreplay. She thinks she’s won the game, but they’re just getting started.   If Banner had a dollar for every time Jared broke her heart, she’d have exactly one dollar. One epic failure of a night. After parting on such bad terms, Banner has no intention of ever giving Jared a second chance. She’s found success in a field ruled by men like him. She’s learned to call the shots and block them when she has to.   So she’ll ignore the way he makes her heart pound. Sure, h...
