Can he overcome his pain and heartbreak in time to save the woman he loves?
Life had always come easy to Navy SEAL, Asher Thorne, until an overwhelming loss made him doubt his ability to protect the ones he loved. Devastated, he has no choice but to push on and do his duty.
Eden Yorkโs job as a translator took a dangerous turn when she was asked to work on a highly confidential project in Venezuela. She thought she knew the risks, but with the fate of a nation at stake, they didnโt matterโshe had to help.
Edenโs international team of experts is targeted by terrorists, trapping her in an unimaginable situation. When Asherโs team is sent in to rescue them, he wants to believe that this time will be different, this time he can protect someone worth saving, even if he has to sacrifice his own life to do it.
Asher took over the kiss, brushing his lips over hers in a tantalizing slow rhythm that coaxed her into following. Slowly his lips parted hers, and his tongue stole into her mouth, seducing hers into a dance. She felt the sensations flow down her neck, into her chest, and tighten her nipples. She rubbed her breasts against his chest, trying to find relief.
Is that me whining?
Ashโs fingers tangled in her hair, tipping her head in a way that allowed for a deeper kiss. She felt his heartbeat against her chest and beneath her fingers at his neck. He nipped at her lips, forcing her to open wider so that their breaths could mingle, and he could tempt her with a thrusting tempo, one that would be even more satisfying if it wasnโt just his tongue and a kiss.
She moved her hands and scrabbled for the hem of his t-shirt.
โShhhh, slow down,โ he soothed.
โNo.โ She thrust her palms under his shirt and sighed with pleasure when she met with the hot hard planes of his stomach. It was like touching hot velvet steel, only better, because it was Asher. She needed more. She pushed up higher and then groaned as her fingers delved into his chest hair.
โGod, Asher.โ
โEden, you donโt mean this, Honey.โ
She tugged at his chest hair to punish him for denying her. โI do.โ
โEden,โ he protested.
โI need to get close. Just let me get closer to you.โ She heard the need in her voice and winced. โPlease, Asher?โ
As if he knew exactly how much it took for her to ask, he whipped the shirt over his head. It ended up somewhere, she didnโt care where. Then she was lifted and gently lowered down onto the carpet, her head resting onto the makeshift pillow.
โI need to be close to you too, Eden. You, Eden York. No other woman would ever do.โ
How does he know the right words to say?
Asher looked her right in the eyes, then slowly, ever so slowly, unbuttoned the first button of her blouse. He placed a kiss on the upper swell of her breast. โSo beautiful.โ
He trailed kisses upwards, until soon their lips met again, and she was lost in a maelstrom of heat, hunger, and passion. She tried to spread her legs wide so she could wrap them around Asher, but the skirt was too tight, so she had to suffice herself with squeezing his thigh. She pushed up against him, trying to ease her ache.
โEdenโโ he started.
โI need more,โ she sobbed. After hearing his story. After seeing this manโs soul, she needed him. It felt like the world was crashing in around them, and she wanted him! Was he going to make her beg?
โShhhhh, Iโm here.โ He cupped her head tightly to his chest. She started to relax. It was like she could breathe. โItโs okay, Baby, Iโve got you. I wonโt let you down.โ

New York Times and USA Today bestselling authors Heidi McLaughlin and L.P. Dover come together for a sexy new series that delivers romance for every season!
Hoist the main sail and ready the bow thruster, this ship is going to be rocking.
London Bauer hates her job. Working with the New England elite, sheโs used to yacht club snobs glaring down their noses at her as she serves them dinner and caters to their extravagant whims. Thankfully, they tip well and London needs every cent she can get.
One shift goes from bad to worse when Max Richmond saunters in. As if she needed another reminder why she should never mingle with the sailors, he has the audacity to ignore her. London wasnโt looking to sail off into the sunset with him after the night they spent together, but acknowledging her would have been common decency. She follows Max into the bathroom, fully intending to give him a piece of her mind. Instead, she finds herself getting wonderfully reacquainted with his drive shaft.
Now, Max is insistent that London join him at the Kingstown Regatta. Surrounded by his uppity friends and family, London fears the divide between their lives is too deep for any vessel to sail. While sheโs ready to weigh anchor and move on, Max is manning his helm and prepared to show her they can weather the roughest of seas… together.
Climb aboard and wax the deck, the motion of this ocean will leave you weak in the knees.
The sound of his voice lingers in my mind. I can still feel the way he touched me and the way he kissed me. When I close my eyes, the vivid memories of our night together flash through my mind. Iโve never had a one night stand before, and I shouldโve known better than to give in to him. Max Richmond. I donโt know how or why he noticed me, but he did. Someone like Max is only after one thing, but he sure does have a way with wordsโฆand he knows how to treat a woman in bed. He has a way of making you feel like youโre the only thing he could ever want.

Going from a professional baseball player to a SWAT officer shouldโve been seamless. Should have been.
But it wasnโt.
All it took was one single calendar shoot for word to spread that Nathan Cox was not only no longer playing professional baseball, but he was also the man behind saving the life of Reggie Morton, the City of Kilgoreโs princess.
***
Reggie didnโt know that by agreeing to provide the expertise and the know-how for the Police Officerโs Ball that she would be required to actually attend the function.
What she also didnโt expect was needing to be savedโagainโby the same man that had saved her life a year ago when she hosted her debut event.
This time in a not-nearly-as-spectacular way. The moment she falls into his arms like a modern-day Cinderella and takes him in in all his three-piece suited glory, she realizes that sheโs been fighting the impossible.

Lani is married with three children and lives in the Great State of Texas.
Sheโs got two strikes against her. Her name is Erickson and her parents own The Bagel Place. It wasnโt always that way. When we were nine, we were best friends. But then a feud between our dads ripped their successful business apartโand my best friend was ripped away too. Our paths were bound to cross again. When both our families vie for the same spot on a Food Channelโs reality show, the producers decide to change the format, aligning us as allies. In order to get our parents to agree to work together, Evan asks me to pretend to be her boyfriend, but I dare her to up the anteโbe my fiancรฉe. Fake fiancรฉeโฆ obviously. As usual, I didnโt think things through. Turns out our parents have a lot of demands neither one of us expected. And all those demands lead to things feeling more real than fake.

Iโve loved Isaiah for as long as I can remember, but sometimes love isnโt enough. Not when the pull of serving our country is my competition. With no other choice, I rebuild myself and focus my attention on the clients of the Broken Rebel Brotherhood, the people who need the clubโs help. I even date other guys in an effort to circumvent the heartache. It works for a while but eventually, the past comes back in the form of muscles, tats and so much baggage.
Isaiah is no longer the boy I loved. Heโs a man that oozes sin and pain. His eyes tell a story that Iโm not sure Iโm up to hearing. Why then is it so hard to turn my back on him? And why in the hell is he the only person my soul calls out to when Iโm in trouble?
Isaiahโฆ
Leaving my family and Tillie was the hardest thing Iโve ever done. But duty called and I had to answer. Especially if I want to be the president of the Broken Rebel Brotherhood and fill my dadโs very large shoes. When a bombing sends me back to the only place Iโve ever called home, I mistakenly think that everything will magically be the same.
Not only has everything changed, but Tillie has moved on. Sheโs become a woman I donโt recognize, a woman who spends her days proving she doesnโt need me. But I know her better than she knows herself. And danger lurks in the shadows, threatening her existence, whether she wants to admit it or not. I will stop at nothing to protect her, to show her that we still belong together.
Fighting for my country was my duty. Fighting for Tillie is everything.
I trudge inside and am instantly greeted by the sounds, smells and feelings of my childhood. Grease, leather, loyalty, family, service, passion. The Broken Rebel Brotherhood was started by my father and his Navy Seal team when they were all discharged from the military. The motorcycle club was their way of finding meaning and purpose in their lives when nothing made sense. Isabelle and I were teethed on the clubโs mantra: Protect those who canโt protect themselves.
I make my way through the main living room and down the hall to the library, where church is held and where I know my parents will be. When I reach the doors, I take a deep breath and grab the handle. Before I can turn the knob, the door swings open and my jaw drops.
Wide blue eyes stare back at me in shock. My mouth goes dry and my brain seems to shut down. Words are impossible, as is any coherent thought. I donโt even register whatโs happening until a tiny fist connects with my cheek and my head flies sideways.
I shake off the pain, both physical and emotional, and glare at the pissed off woman in front of me. Finally, the cobwebs clear and I manage to form a smile, even if itโs only to taunt her.
โNice to see you too, Tillie.โ

Nikki lives in Cheshire with her husband, two dogs and lovely mother-in-law who supplies her with endless cups of tea. She writes romance with a touch of humour and lots of love, and hopes that she puts a smile on her reader’s faces. Her ambitions of becoming a writer started at the age of 10 when she started writing poetry at school, and was given the honour of reading one of her poems to the rest of her year group (a truly embarrassing experience that she will never forget). Nikki is grateful for the wide variety of strange and wonderful people in her life, otherwise she’d never know what to write about! She is currently talking to family and friends, finding out their innermost secrets in readiness for her next book.
Although all Nikki’s books are stand alone stories characters do make ‘guest appearances’. So, the best order to read them is:
Boy oh boy. I’m not sure I was prepared for this amazing story. Hunter and Ellie were just the cutest things ever. Ellie is supposed to be off-limits but Hunter is pushing that limit. I love the dynamic Hunter has with is family. They have been through a lot, but they’ve come out stronger in the end. Ellie is smart, sexy, and stubborn. She’s got her family who has her back. I love that she gives as good a she gets.
These two were everything I could have hoped for while being amazing individually. I loved getting lost in these two amazing people. I loved when Ellie let her guard down and allowed herself to feel. I loved that Hunter was ready to be what Ellie needed.
I loved every second of this book. Once I started I could not put this book down. I loved falling in love with these two and their story. I can’t wait for more form Nikki Ashton.
I was supposed to show Cole the city, as a favor to a friend. I was aware of his reputation, a seductive charmer hellbent on bachelorhood, but I hadn’t prepared for him to get past my defenses. Cole was nothing like the serious businessman I imagined. He was sinfully hot, funny and way too flirty for my broken heart. But, it was just vacation after all. I thought I’d never see him again.
Only I do.
Cole calls me the very day I return to New York. My residency has been my sole focus for the past few yearsโmy passion and my refuge.
I’ve loved and lost and I don’t know how to open up again. But Cole is melting my fears with every kiss and touch, willing to move mountains to make me happy and help me heal.
And what scares me the most? I might just let him.
Welcome! My name is Layla Hagen and I am a Contemporary Romance author.
I fell in love with books when I was nine years old, and my love affair with stories continues even now, many years later. I write romantic stories and can’t wait to share them with the world. And I drink coffee. Lots of it ๐
This book is about learning to love again. Laney has a tragic past. One that makes her question if she can love again. This book was sweet. This book was love. This book was about overcoming. I loved falling in love with Laney and Cole. Cole was so patient. Cole’s love for Laney was heartfelt.
Watching the love grow between these two is so special. I love holding on to hope for more for these two. This was more than a story for me. It was about healing. It was about moving on. This book was everything I needed and waited.
I love Layla Hagen. When I ventured into the world of romance books, Layla was one of the first authors I read. I read every book I could get my hands on. My love for her and her books has continued to grow. I can’t wait to see what’s to come in the future.
