Story
When love, secrets, and family collide, they’ll have to find a way for their sudden marriage to appear believable – for all their sakes. Dustin Lafreniere had a secret: the ultimate power play! He accepted a new contract that came with steep stipulations – marriage. Asking his sister’s friend to fill in as his wife came with a tall order. He wasn’t stepfather material, much less husband material, but he was sure better than nothing. Laurel had no intention of falling for the guy she’d tried so hard to forget – and now he was here, proposing? Wasn’t this every girl’s dream?...

Story
A text message between strangers, begins a deep friendship and love that neither expected. I’m lost and scared. I just need to talk to someone, please… For Lila Brooks, life was just about getting by and burying the memories of a traumatic past she would rather forget. Relationships were hard, and left scars, and ‘Trust’ might as well be a four-letter word… despite the five letters. Her inner circle was small, almost non-existent, and she needed help from an invisible friend who couldn’t judge her. You found me. It’s going to be okay. I’m here… Louis ‘Pasteur’ Gagne ...

I made a deal with the devil, and he smells like ice and trouble. What started as a transaction ignites into something hotter than any oven in my bakery. Suddenly, faking it feels dangerously real. As the clock ticks down on our fake marriage deadline, I’m terrified that the only thing I might lose isn’t my bakery, but my heart to the hockey player who might be thawing my frozen defenses one stolen kiss at a time. My grandmother always said that good things come to those who wait. Turns out, all that waiting landed me in a financial mess I needed to escape if I wanted to keep my family ...

He wasn’t ‘stepdad material,’ nor was he like the other love-struck members of the squadron. There was something about Mallory that confused the stealthy pilot, making him curious. … And curiosity could be a dangerous thing! Don’t give up the battle until the last round is spent… Mallory Duncan was floundering to hang on while the rest of the world around her swam in one gigantic pool of euphoria.

So how does she end up at a comic convention, surrounded by caped crusaders, space wizards, and—oh no—grown men in pony costumes? Alexander Weber may be Hollywood royalty, but he’s tired of red carpets, fake smiles, and love that only lasts until the tabloids move on. When he crosses paths with a woman who isn’t impressed by his fame, he’s instantly intrigued...

They call him Big D because he is. Tall and broad, with muscles so thick and good, all I can think about is getting a grip on his biceps and squeezing. Then there’s the other reason. All the girls talk about it. I’m not sure how everyone knows he’s hung like a horse, but they do. I try not to think about it because he’s a popular football player who everybody knows, and I’m just a work-focused history major who likes to stay mostly invisible at school.
