About the book
Emily Allen has spent her life in the pages of books, but she’s ready for a new chapter. When her favorite author, Siobhan Riordan, offers her a job in Ireland, Emily jumps at the chance to help finish a long-awaited novel.
It’s everything she’s ever dreamed of, except for Kieran Murphy, Siobhan’s infuriatingly handsome and stubborn son. He runs the family bookstore and makes it very clear Emily is not welcome.
Yet the more time they spend together, the more Emily sees past Kieran’s gruff exterior. Between witty banter, shared secrets, and quiet moments among the shelves, she begins to fall for both the man and the village she’s come to call home.
But Kieran has reasons for keeping his distance. And Emily must decide if she’s ready to write her own love story.

About the book
He kills in the shadows. She lights up every room. Together, they might just ignite the whole world.
Grayson walked away from the military and built a double life in New York: boxing legend by day, mafia enforcer by night. He thought he was done with emotional entanglements. Then sunshine-in-heels Maddie crashed through his walls with one devastating kiss.
Maddie is sick of being the family screwup. She swore she would never fall for a man like Grayson—cold, calculating, impossible. But his darkness calls to her in ways she never expected.
Just as they start to believe they could have something real, fate throws a grenade into their lives. Trust is fragile, and enemies are closing in.
How do you build a future with someone whose past is soaked in blood?
Or worse, what if you can't?

About the book
The movie star and the dog groomer are one kiss away from the perfect love story. That’s the hiccup in a warm and witty romance by the bestselling author of Roommaid.
The meet-cute award goes to dog groomer Juliet Nolan. It’s one of Hollywood’s biggest nights when she volunteers as a seat filler and winds up next to movie heartthrob Noah freaking Douglas. Tongue tied and toes curling in her pink Converse, she pretends that she doesn’t have a clue who he is. It’s the only way to keep from swooning.
She’s pretty and unpretentious, loves his dog, and is not a worshipping fan. No way Noah’s giving up on her, even if his affectionate pursuit comes with a bump: Juliet has a pathological fear of kissing and the disappointments that follow. What odds does romance have without that momentous, stupendous, once-in-a-lifetime first smooch? Patient, empathetic, and carrying personal burdens of his own, Noah suggests a remedy: they rehearse.
The lessons begin. The guards come down. But there’s another hitch they weren’t betting on. As for that cue-the-orchestra-and-roll-credits happy ending? It might take more than practice to make it perfect.

About the book
The hero's "virtuous character provides some gentle pleasure" in this romantic suspense about a cop who falls for a male sex worker under his protection (Publishers Weekly).
Quick-witted hustler Ghost is no stranger to living dangerously; survival has always been the name of the game.
He's just always gone it alone.
Now he's got the wrong people breathing down his neck, and the only way out demands placing his trust in the unlikeliest of heroes: Duncan Rook, a gruff cop whose ethics are as solid as his body.
Cozying up to a criminal is hardly what Duncan's reputation on the force needs—especially when that criminal is temptation personified. Ghost is Duncan's polar opposite, and the last person he expected to fall for.
So then why does every imaginable scenario for taking down their common enemy end with Ghost in his arms?

Emily
I never thought I would be seeking shelter here of all places.
I’m out of options though. I needed a place to hide out.
Somewhere I could get my bearings and develop a plan to get myself out of the mess I’ve landed in.
It was a fail-proof plan. Then he found me.
I’ve escaped one monster, only to be captured by another.
He’s determined to break me, to uncover the secrets I’m hiding. But this is one secret I can’t let him discover.
Can I escape him before he ruins everything? Before he ruins me?
Josh
She was meant to stay away.
Emily, the only person in the world who’s made me feel like I actually have a heart.
She made me hope that my soul wasn’t as black as people say.
Hope’s a dangerous bitch though, one I killed before those embers ever had a chance to flame.
Now she’s back. And she’s keeping secrets, ones I plan to uncover using any means necessary.
I warned her that if I ever laid eyes on her again, I’d keep her.
In keeping her, I know I’m going to do the one thing I never wanted to do.
RUIN HER.
