What Lowen doesn't expect to uncover in the chaotic office is an unfinished autobiography Verity never intended for anyone to read.

Ryder, Garrett, Kenzo, and Diesel - The Vipers. Their deals are as sordid as their business, and their reputation is enough to bring a grown man to his knees, forcing him to beg for mercy. They are not people you mess with, yet my dad did. The old man ran up a debt with them and then sold me to cover his losses. Yes, sold me. They own me now. I’m theirs in every sense of the word. But I’ve never been meek and compliant.

Beckett: If you’re reading this, well, you know the last-letter drill. You made it. I didn’t. Get off the guilt train, because I know if there was any chance you could have saved me, you would have.

We're not free to give into this. She's 19, and I'm 38. And I'm her boyfriend's father. Unfortunately, they both just moved into my house.

After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

With my aunt's medical bills piling up, I can't afford to say no to this payday: pretend to be a mob prince's fiancée, plan a fake wedding, and keep my emotions out of it. Simple, right? The only hitch? I'm falling for him. Dario Moretti is everything I’m not—wealthy, refined, and dangerously charming. He belongs to a world of luxury and power, while I’m just trying to stay afloat. I never imagined I'd start caring about him, but the more time we spend together, the harder it is to remember that this is all just a job. Dario’s gaze lingers a little too long. His touch sends shivers...

He's estranged from his family. But when he meets her, he starts to remember what's important in life. All I want is to buy a Christmas tree on Black Friday. Is that too much to ask?

Turns out, he's part of the family who owns this property. When he offers to help me with the tree, how can I resist? And how can I ever leave town, knowing the man of my dreams is here?

This is my dream job—and I can’t afford to risk it. But when the single dad kisses me, resisting him becomes impossible… Gray Aldridge is everything I shouldn’t want: tall, handsome, and impossibly confident.

His daughter, Emery, is the sweetest little girl I’ve ever met, and I love making memories with her. Falling for her father? That’s a recipe for heartbreak—for all of us. Yet the ...

It’s company policy: Don’t sleep with your employees. No matter how handsome and flirty they may be. Yet, when my promotion puts me in charge of the three of them? That policy is going to be hard to follow. Liam, the chestnut-haired boy next door I’ve flirted with for five years and who is, finally, single. Arthur, the suave French accountant who pronounces my name like it’s an expensive wine. Robbie, the bashful computer nerd whose chiseled body and sleeve tattoos hint at something deeper.

Taking Liberties Caleb normally goes for elegant, sophisticated women, and then he ...

I told myself, I wouldn’t let him affect me like this. That I’d keep things professional, controlled. But he doesn’t play by those rules. He storms into my life with his sharp wit and sharper tongue, throwing my world into chaos and walking away like it’s nothing. He is Reece Carter, an alpha silver fox billionaire and a retired sports celebrity. He is my Dad’s Best Friend whom I hated since my teen age. That turned into a bigger problem when he changed into a Casanova after his retirement from big games and became the richest sports businessman in the country. And now? Guess what...

Dear Santa, All I wanted for Christmas was a quiet holiday, a box of donuts, and maybe—just maybe—a kiss underneath a mistletoe from Prince Charming. Instead, I got Dominic—the mafia king. It started with one questionable decision (mine, obviously), and Dominic swooping in like a Christmas knight—if knights wore tailored suits and had cheekbones sharp enough to slice wrapping paper. Now, I’m stuck in his penthouse, and while there’s no mistletoe, the tension’s hotter than roasted chestnuts. He’s bossy, infuriating, and far too attractive for my sanity. And the way he looks ...

Hamish can remember only one thing from the last ten years—the name Rose. At the beach house, he meets the girl his brother ...

Seriously...Christmas used to be my favorite time of year. The presents, the spiked eggnog, kissing handsome men under mistletoe. And then he came into my life. Or rather, I came into his life, under a little bit of a pretense.
