About this listen
Just sit right back and you’ll hear a tale…
Scarlet Day, the magnetic lead singer of the all-female alt-rock band The Scarlet Begonias, is on the cusp of fame. Their first album just launched and they’ve landed a dream gig – performing on a luxury sapphic cruise to the Galapagos. To top it all off, during their first set on deck, she makes a connection with a mesmerizing woman in the crowd.
Robin Barry is a solo traveler on a couples cruise, which has the potential to be painfully awkward. A veterinary researcher intent on focusing on the wildlife rather than the women, her plans change abruptly when she meets the sultry starlet. Couples massages, indulgent meals and island-side adventures turn the cruise into a once-in-a-lifetime tropical fling – until fate announces it has other plans.
A cataclysmic storm forces the passengers to abandon ship, stranding them on an uninhabited island with few supplies and no means of calling for help. With tensions rising and food dwindling, Scarlet and Robin are at odds about what to do next. Can their blossoming romance weather the storm, or will it fade along with the hope of rescue?
From bestselling author Cara Malone comes Gillian’s Island, a story of two women caught between the turmoil of survival on an untamed island and the unpredictable currents of the heart. Immerse yourself in the lush, sun-soaked Galapagos Islands and spend some time with fan-favorite couples from Trail Magic, the Fox County Forensics series, Lakeside Hospital and more, and fall in love all over again with a new couple too in this standalone sapphic adventure.

Nyssa Blacksea is eager to silence her doubters. As the only warrior in her guild without magick, she's forced to rely solely on her martial arts mastery, unwavering confidence, and charisma.

There's just one problem—Quinn isn't receptive to Nyssa's charms and refuses to go down without a fight. Dangerous secrets swirl around Quinn and a treacherous guild leader, rattling Nyssa's faith in the very system that raised her.

Story
Charlie Dawson is really good at running away. After the loss of her parents, she’s stayed as far away from Manhattan and her parents' hotel empire as she could—an act made easier when her brother ruthlessly cut her off from the family fortune. Closing her art gallery, abandoning her dreams, and moving across the country weren’t simple, but that was easier than grieving the loss of the two people she loved most.

When I applied for a job as a personal assistant, I had no idea I'd be working for THE Eloise Roth. One of the queens of romance novels, who has dozens of bestsellers under her belt. I also had no idea that she would be strict, demanding, and difficult. Every single day I think about quitting, but for some reason I keep coming back for more. I have no idea when the hell Eloise went from my intimidating boss to the woman who stars in all of my dirtiest fantasies, but it's becoming a real problem, and my already scattered brain is having even more trouble functioning. I'm so getting fired.

The challenge was supposed to be simple. Spill a drink on an airline passenger and be one square closer to winning the company's secret bingo card game. Twenty-five different challenges, at various levels of difficulty, had to be accomplished within a month's time. After nearly eight years of being a flight attendant, Alice Kaminski had spilled drinks on plenty of passengers, mostly on accident and during rough air. She didn't particularly like the idea of the bingo card, but she had massive student debt.

Have you ever had a crush on your babysitter? Taryn Ross sure did. Sixteen-year-old Charlotte was sophisticated, thoughtful, gorgeous, and fun. Taryn counted the minutes until they’d hang out. But Charlotte and her family moved away. Now a transfer student at Hillspoint University, Taryn is ready to officially come out when she runs into a familiar face at a party. Charlie, now a grad student, insists on walking a drunk Taryn home. To the detriment of Taryn’s heart (and libido), Charlie has only grown kinder (and hotter) with time.
