It should be an easy rule to follow - don't bang your boss... But I didn't know who he was when I met him. And the first time I saw him, our connection sounded like the stuff of romantic legends -- that whole "their eyes locked across a crowded room" moment that turned into more. I didn’t believe it. . . . until it happened to me. Fine, the charming, clever, sexy-as-sin guy in the tailored suit was only trying to buy the same Snoopy lunchbox (as a gift!), but still, our eyes totally locked, and my lady parts definitely tingled as we vied for the prize. Naturally, I did what any badass business woman would do. Negotiated for the lunchbox, then found my what-if guy online and made plans to see him the next night. One night only -- that was the deal we made. But one fantastic night had us both changing our minds in the morning. And making plans for another. Until I walked into the office to learn he just bought my company. And here’s the biggest rule of romantic legends -- no matter what, don’t bang your boss .  Especially if you’re already falling for him. THE WHAT IF GUY is a sexy standalone you can escape into! The other standalone romances in The Guys Who Got Away series include Dear Sexy Ex Boyfriend! |

These books are also available individually. FALL DEEP Navy SEAL Miles Dumbrowski is on his way back to war. He isn’t supposed to fall in love. Piper Harrington left San Diego behind, looking for adventure in Europe. The no-strings, easy-breezy kind of adventure. Now her heart is headed to the Middle East with a man she won’t see for months. But Miles seems intent on proving he's worth the wait for that second date. FALL FAST Navy SEAL Nathan Meyers and recent divorcee (as of an hour ago) Emme Ryan both want a night of escape from their real lives, for very different reasons. A chance meeting and a single drink at an airport bar turns into a night of unexpected fun and pleasure when a freak snow storm keeps them on the ground. But when morning comes, will they stick to the rules they set out at the start of the night? FALL BACK When Navy SEAL Cade Duncan partners up with Mel Vincent for an endurance race, he doesn’t expect to tumble into a romantic fling in paradise—or to be so pissed with the beautiful woman when he finds out she’s been keeping secrets.

Tips for Surviving a Fling with a Sexy Younger Man … First, you’d think as a thirty-something-year-old woman, I’d be immune to Griffin’s flirty comments and six-pack abs. You’d think that his carefree playboy attitude, or the fact that he’s still finishing grad school, would deter me. You’d be wrong. If you accidentally bang your best friend's younger brother, here are a few important tips... One: Do NOT brag to your friend about how well-endowed her brother is. Two: Do not go back for seconds. Or thirds. Three: Do not let him see your muffin-top or jiggly behind. And definitely don't let him feed you cookies in bed. Cookies are bad. Remember that. Four: Act like a damn grown up and apologize for riding him like a bull at the rodeo. And DO NOT flirt with him when he laughs at said apology.  Five: This one is crucial, so pay attention. Do NOT under any circumstance fall in love with him. |

Women especially find him inscrutable and unapproachable—but also compellingly magnetic. So when Davina MacCallum shows no signs of being even mildly impressed by him, he is intrigued. Until he learns that her mission in London involves claims against his estate. Soon the two of them are engaged in a contest that allows no compromise. When duty and desire collide, the best laid plans are about to take a scandalous turn—into the very heart of passion . . .   Madeline Hunter’s novels are:   “Brilliant, compelling. . . . An excellent read.” —The Washington Post   “Mesmerizing.” — Publishers Weekly   “Pure passion.” — Booklist   |
