Clear skies ahead… Jace 'Hot Cakes' Sorensen never had to try hard for anything. Flying came easy, like he was born in the cockpit of a plane. Life was smooth and women fell all over him… except Karen. Even her name should have warned him to stay clear. Turbulence detected! Karen Marks had met with irate men all her life – but usually at a parent-teacher conference. This macho know-it-all took the cake! Why did she ever agree to help her friend for some extra cash and fill her summer break? It wasn’t worth the headache dealing with Jace. She had to put up with him for one week. ...

Imagine meeting the richest, most gorgeous guy in London… And he's obsessed with YOU... On my thirtieth birthday, I decide it’s time to make some changes. Okay, it’s really only one change.

I’m tired of giving my fragile heart to a man, only to have him trample all over it. Instead, I’m going to concentrate on my career, which I love. As a valuer of art, antiques, and jewelry, I’m passionate about people’s prized ...

I know, I know… hooking up with my brother's best friend—twelve years older than me—was totally NOT a good idea. But damn, he was hot AF. Then he ghosted me, and I swore him off. Now, I'm his fake fiancée. Who saw that coming? Eight years after that unforgettable “encounter,” I'm back in my small town. Seeing Ryder Lafferty makes my stomach flip. One look at those broad shoulders and hard muscles his shirt can’t hide, and I'm back at that fiery night when I learned what his skilled hands and mouth can do. He’s now a single dad whose adorable little girl is a mini Dr. ...

How do you go from a homeless maid to a billionaire’s wife in one simple step? Get caught sleeping in his bed. Grant Barclay is a penny-pinching, drop-dead gorgeous god in a tailored suit, forced to marry to inherit his family estate. A Barclay parting from a single cent more than necessary when he divorces that unwanted wife someday? Preposterous. I’m a starving artist who’s always looking for the bright side. Getting hired as his maid the same day I was fired for ruining his suit makes me think I’ve hit the jackpot. But, a misunderstanding (not my fault, I swear!) leads to a new ...

The night we met, we sizzled. Now, he’s my new boss, off-limits and cold as ice. Judge Jonathan Wolfe could hang icicles in hell but the night he walked into my pub his irresistible smile and those heated stares had me ready to jump into bed with him… until he walked away. Probably for the best considering he’s the judge I’m interning for this summer. I’m a law student, getting by on tips and scholarships. I’m not jeopardizing my dreams for a man. I’m too busy dodging trouble. He’s the judge, stern and distant. He’s also devilishly handsome and heir to billions. Is he ...

Previously published as My Russian Billionaire. Her first mistake was to think it was possible to become "friends" with a Russian billionaire like Sergei Grachyov... Her second mistake?

Never fall in love with your boss… I’ve worked for Leon for two years now. Which means I’ve been in love with Leon for about, oh, 730 days, give or take. He’s tall, gorgeous, hardworking, and strict. Most of the staff at Noah’s Ark are scared of him. But I can handle the Lion King, as I like to call him. I’m his PA. I book his dental appointments, pick up his dry cleaning, keep his diary, walk his dogs, and organize his accounts. I know him as well as a wife would, although unfortunately without the added benefits that role would bring. I’d tell him how I feel, but he’s made...
