"OMG!! I have never laughed so hard one second and been on the edge of my seat the next, with any other book!" - Fun Under The Covers Jane West's life is perfectly average.   Perfectly boring.  Until Ty Strickland—Grade-A, smoking hot firefighter—moves in down the street. Then things get a little exciting, and not in the good, panty-melting sort of way. Not only does someone want her dead (seriously), she has to wrangle her out-of-control desires where the new neighbor is concerned, and convince her boss at the small town's only adult toy store—who meddles in Jane's love life—to leave the new hose-wielding hottie off her matchmaking radar. But it's not all chaos and pancakes. There's Ty. And his smoking hot body. Smoking hot kisses. He's burning the walls around her heart to nothing but ash. And she just might be falling in love...if she can stay alive long enough. This is the first book in Vanessa Vale's new Small Town Romance series, where the men in Montana aren't just hot, they set things on fire (literally). (This book was previously published.) |

I'm the one who isn't pregnant. Yet… Expanding my successful café was a no-brainer. Sleeping with the contractor? Well, mix some hormones, excellent coffee, and the romantic atmosphere of the movie Halloween , and naked stuff happens. Yeah, Gideon is smokin' hot, as shown by the photos from that pesky camera crew that's suddenly following us around. Say what? Because surprise—he's a single father, and now he's the most eligible one in Crescent Cove. Every horny woman in our small town wants a go at his tool…belt. And then we're caught on camera—I still had my pants on, thank you—and all Hades breaks loose. Now the little secret he kept from me isn't nearly as important as Gideon keeping custody of his daughter. When that full moon rises on Halloween, I might finally be dropping my mask. And risking it all for love…and really good hammering. Author's note: This romantic comedy is Macy and Gideon's story—finally!—and has a happily-ever-after ending. |

Opposites attract in the hilarious and hot romantic comedy United Indie Book Blog calls "a MUST READ!!!!!!" The word "nail" has so many meanings: Ainsley's manicured nails belong in the Museum of Modern Art. The fashionista hammers nails at Habitat for Humanity. She desperately wants to nail Owen Phillips. Unfortunately, she mistakenly thinks he's gay. Owen needs to shed his hellish last few years. Yearning for the simpler things in life, like working with his hands, the finance mogul joins a Habitat build. Turns out he also wants to work over Ainsley Hall…but the confusing bombshell flirts blatantly with other men. When Ainsley discovers Owen's true sexuality, their mutual attraction ignites, but he hasn't shared details about his past. If Ainsley gets wind of the lies chasing him, it will take more than hammers and nails (and nailing studs ) to keep their walls from caving in. OFF-LIMITS CRUSH is a full-length, standalone, hot romantic comedy, previously titled STUD. One-click your copy today! |
