About the book
Rule one of becoming a doctor: don't sleep with your supervisor. Rule two: definitely don't charge him for it.
Fresh out of a breakup and new to New York, Finn Hayes does something impulsive: when a guy at a bar mistakes him for an escort, he plays along. The stranger who takes the bait? Gorgeous, in control, and exactly the kind of distraction Finn needs. One unforgettable night, a hundred bucks on the nightstand, and they'll never see each other again.
Except Jesse Maddox is a senior surgeon at Devon Memorial Hospital—and Finn's new boss. Now they're stuck navigating morning rounds, life-and-death surgery and a searing attraction that no amount of clinical detachment can cure. With careers on the line, the smart move is to walk away. But when it comes to each other, Finn and Jesse are finding that the heart doesn't follow hospital protocol...
Conflict of Interest is a sizzling forbidden romance, where the tension between the sheets rivals the tension in the ER. If you love slow-burn chemistry, sharp banter, and a love story that's worth breaking every rule for, this book is for you!

Our take
Toronto Thunder quarterback Aidan Flynn is exploring his attraction to men when Levi, his best friend’s younger brother, shows up to honor a drunken hookup pact.

A good pick for readers who enjoy MM sports romance, bi-awakening, and friends-with-benefits relationships.
Choose your retailer
About the book
When the sexy little brother of Aidan’s best friend suggests a hookup pact, it's the perfect storm for a bi-awakening . . .
Toronto Thunder quarterback Aidan Flynn always believed he was straight, until his close friend and favorite wide receiver signs with a team across the country. Distance opens his eyes and unlocks a desire he can’t deny. Even if his feelings aren’t returned, Aidan still wants to learn more about this part of himself.
Frustrated and a little heartbroken, the last thing he expects is for his crappy mood to get called out by his best friend’s little brother. Or for Levi to offer, on one drunken night, a pact: if Aidan never gets together with his guy, Levi will show him everything he’s been missing—and wanting—in bed.
It’s a stupid promise, fueled by booze and heartbreak, and Aidan expects that Levi will never call him on it.
Except Levi does. He shows up at Aidan’s house in Toronto less than two months later, not only willing to fulfill his side of the pact, but now signed to the Thunder as Aidan’s new right tackle. Aidan assumes it’ll be easy to get rid of him, but Levi is charming and persistent, and he not only ends up living in Aidan’s house, but sleeping in Aidan’s bed.
It’s easy and fun and the best hookup Aidan’s ever had in his whole life. It’s so good, in fact, Aidan starts to experience feelings he believed were long gone, traded away with his friend. Maybe with Levi in his life, love isn’t such a lost cause, after all.
They’re great on the field and between the sheets. But when Aidan’s past returns, he must decide whether Levi also has a place in his heart.

"The yearning is off the charts in this winning contemporary from Steiner." Publishers Weekly
How can you hate someone who still owns your heart?
Jasmine Olsen hasn’t been home in seven years for a very good reason. Some memories cut too deep, and sometimes running is the only way to survive. But when her best friend’s wedding brings her back to the small town she desperately tried to escape, she finally comes face to face with… him.
Tyler Wagner. The boy who broke her heart. The man she never quite forgot. And, unfortunately, her best friend’s brother. Charismatic, confident, and unyielding, Tyler is everything Jasmine can’t afford to want. And now, as the wedding fast approaches, he’s everywhere—testing boundaries they never defined, stirring feelings they both pretended were long buried.
With every stolen glance, his golden eyes lure her into their depths. Unable to escape his pull, the memory of them tightens like a rip current, dragging her under. And when he flashes her that smile, she loses her breath along with the last of her restraint.
She wants to hate him. She needs to hate him.
But if he kisses her again, she’ll drown.
And this time, she’ll take him down with her.

About the book
"Don't let him in."
Widow's Bay meets Haunting Adeline in this standalone dark gothic horror romance from the New York Times and USA Today Bestselling author of Blood Orange, Grave Matter and Realm of Thieves.
When Iris Galloway inherits her great-aunt's cottage on a remote Scottish loch, the terms are simple: live there one year, and it's hers.
She doesn't know about the disappearances yet, nor does she know about the handsome man who swims in the loch at night, who watches her cottage from the dark water, and who appears at her door very wet, very naked, and asking to come in.
Meanwhile, the locals warn her about a murderer on the loose, the police are in over their heads, and her aunt's letters say to keep the salt lines around the house and the doors locked after sundown.
And never, ever invite him inside.
But Iris has spent her whole life being careful.
And this wicked stranger is going to ruin her for it.
Bonetide is a dark gothic romance that’s tinged with horror. While this book starts off almost like a cozy gothic mystery, it does pivot later into darker territory. Which also gets a little weird. If you’re here for the cozy, know that it doesn’t stay cozy. If you’re here for the dark romance, know that it’s coming. Please see inside the book or author's website for the content warnings.

Two years ago, my fated mates rejected me.
Now they want a second chance.
All my life, I've been a symbol of hope and a portrait of perfection, the daughter molded by legacy and duty.
On my 21st birthday, I stood before the Fates, ready to meet my mate and become something more than the pedestal I’d been placed on.
In a cruel twist, the ritual ended with four sets of eyes staring back at me and one word waiting on their lips.
Reject.

Two years have passed, full of fake smiles and hidden shame, reduced to a bargaining chip for my father's political gain.
Now I stand in bridal lace, walking toward the altar, but it’s not my father’s match waiting for me. Instead, I’m greeted with the same four sets of eyes that haunt my soul.
It seems they’ve changed their minds. Now I must decide what’s more important - changing my fate or protecting my heart.

About the book
"I couldn’t put it down!" Hometown enemies clash again in this romantic comedy from a USA Today Bestseller.
Arden Weathers. She's a girl on a mission, and that mission most certainly doesn't involve Brody Blastoviak, the hometown hottie who made her college prospects go boom six years ago.
Brody Blastoviak. He knows better than to stick his you-know-what into Crazy. So why is he losing his cookies over Arden Weathers, the uptight chemistry partner who "accidentally" torched his truck back in high school?
Now, older and wiser, these former teenage enemies are supposedly on the same team – working to restore a crumbling beach house that each wants to claim as their own. Too bad for Arden, Brody holds not just the deed, but all of the cards and clout, too.
She's a broke college graduate while Brody is not only hotter than ever, but obnoxiously rich and famous, thanks to Blast Tools, a rags-to-riches brotherly venture. It's all so stupidly unfair, especially when Arden makes an appalling discovery. Turns out, she's not quite immune to the charms of her old childhood nemesis after all.
And Brody? Let's just say, this tool-toting billionaire is reluctantly learning that the girl of his nightmares just might be the girl of his dreams.
***From a USA Today bestselling author, this enemies to lovers romance is a smalltown romantic comedy featuring a smart poor girl and a billionaire construction guy who's come a long way since high school.***
The Blast Brothers Trilogy: Boom is the first in a billionaire bad boy trilogy starring three self-made brothers and the delightfully different girls who claim their hearts. Each of these spicy, funny romance books can be read as a standalone. Titles in this smalltown billionaire romance series include:
BOOM, an Enemies to Lovers Romcom (Brody's Book). He torched her scholarship. She torched his pickup. Six years later, these high school enemies are at it again, working to restore a crumbling beach house they each want to claim as their own – unless what they truly want to claim is each other.
BANG, a Billionaire Grump Romance (Mason's Book). This hard billionaire needs a nanny for his kid sister. This plucky teaching grad needs money for student loans. What they don't need is each other – or so they think.
BLITZ, a Smalltown Romantic Comedy (Chase's Book). Smalltown sweetheart Mina Lipinski has a problem, and the only person who can solve it is Chase Blastoviak, the most obnoxious guy she's ever met. Hilarious? Not hardly. Good thing for both of them, their dislike is more than mutual…until it isn't.

About the book
A Standalone Fake Marriage, Billionaire Romance.
The fine print said 'business only...'
Shame no one told my heart about the contract terms.
You know those nightmares where you’re publicly humiliated and can’t escape? That’s my reality at my first SoHo gallery showing.
I start off the night by mistaking Gideon King, billionaire art collector, for catering staff. (Though to be fair, how was I supposed to know that the tall, gorgeous man in the corner wasn’t there to help with the champagne trays??)
And just when I think I might recover from that mortification, I accidentally spill champagne all over his immaculate designer suit. In front of the entire art world. While he’s looking at MY paintings.
I’m ready to flee the country and take up goat farming when the unthinkable happens. After everyone leaves, he returns. One drink turns into one unforgettable night. And then he’s gone from my life.
Until he reappears with a shocking proposal. His company faces a hostile takeover, and apparently I’m his perfect paper bride. The contract outlines everything: lump sum payment upon completion, separate bedrooms, convincing public appearances, and absolutely no emotional involvement.
As I consider his offer, I have to wonder:
Is this strictly business or something more?
And why, despite my better judgment, am I saying yes?
