In the Phoenix club, fantasies come to life, but he wants her for real, and he’ll do anything to prove it in this deliciously sexy romance from USA Today bestselling author Stacey Kennedy. Lottie Harlow spends her days as a dog walker and her nights losing herself in wild fantasies at Phoenix, a members-only, voyeuristic sex club in New York City. Her anonymous existence is precisely planned. She must lay low, or risk facing the consequences of her family’s criminal past. She’s a ghost, and she likes it that way. But detective Hunt Walker is determined to uncover her secrets… Hunt has always loved his nights at Phoenix, but they’re no longer enough. He wants more. He wants a relationship. He wants Lottie. He’s wanted her for years. The only problem? Lottie keeps him at a careful distance, never letting him get too close, ignoring the sizzling heat burning between them. He knows she’s intrigued by him, but she’s scared. He just can’t figure out why… But when enemies from her past come seeking revenge for her family’s deal gone wrong, Lottie’s secrets are revealed, and so is the explosive passion they’ve been fighting. Soon, lust leads the way to love, but when Lottie’s brothers start threatening her, the line between right and wrong is blurred. Hunt becomes torn between his duty to his badge and his need to keep Lottie safe. But he’ll only get one chance to prove to Lottie that she’s worth fighting for… and that their love is worth the risk. Mallory Grant and Nixon Scott met purely by chance. With an instant attraction between them, the pair was easily tempted to give in to their desires. Despite the fact that Mallory wants more with Nixon, she’s willing to settle for what he is prepared to offer: a physical relationship with no strings. But when Mallory gets robbed at gunpoint, Nixon starts paying more attention. She assumed the robber was a man looking for some quick cash. Nixon wondered if that was all there was to it. After all, the thief’s words to her left him feeling unsettled. And when Mallory gets kidnapped, Nixon realizes his instincts were right all along. Only now he’s worried that he might lose the woman who means more to him than he’s ever shared. A life for a life … will kill the both of us in the end. Clover I know nothing of the Sickness at Eastpoint University. I know only the backroads that slip past the southern beaches and the gators that make their way onto the swamps shores. Until him. Until the killer known as Braxton Smalls finds his way into my stilted trailer on the coast of Port Charlotte. He came looking for Ace, but he found me instead… Braxton I’m a monster. Always have been. Always will be. The only people I’ve ever given a shit about are my boys and their girls. No one hurts my family, and knowing that someone has … and that they’ve gotten away with it plagues me. Ace Volkov will pay for what he put Avalon through and if I have to use his most precious weakness to draw him out, I will. She thinks she can bargain for his life with her own, but I mean to show her that there’s nothing I won’t do to see my vengeance through to the end. Have you ever felt as though you were having an out-of-body experience? An ethereal feeling that you were floating in the atmosphere looking down on a situation? If not, let me tell you, it wasn’t all it was cracked up to be. Imagine you were at your best friend’s engagement party in Vegas. You were super excited because you were the maid of honor and the best man was the hottest football player you’d ever seen. Even this guy’s position as tight end was appropriate for his, well . . . tight end. Anyway, there was something about his cocky attitude that ruffled your feathers and turned you on at the same time. Maybe it was the way he challenged you or because women seemed to flock to the gorgeous man. But according to him, he only had eyes for you. It didn’t matter if he was kidding or not, because you weren’t in the market for a serious relationship. Then, for some reason, you engaged in a drinking game. Because why not, right? You were in Vegas after all. Well, let me tell you why not, because the next morning you noticed a silver band on your left ring finger. And adding salt to that tequila-induced wound, there was one on his too. Yes, you read that right. Me, Alexa Barton, preferably always the bridesmaid and never the bride, married the uber-sexy, and let’s not forget cocky, football player, Jackson Cartwright. I was a cliché. A married cliché. Whose “husband” wasn’t in a hurry to get an annulment and vowed to prove that we were meant to be together. Luna Winchester's life is firmly entrenched in the coastal town of Huckleberry Bay, Oregon. A fourth-generation lightkeeper, Luna is carrying on the Winchester tradition by tending to the lighthouse. Plus, she's decided to renovate a long-abandoned building on the property and make it a B&B, Luna's Light. Surrounded by family and her two childhood best friends, her life is full. Wolfe Conrad is in hiding, and he's come to Huckleberry Bay to heal. A career-ending accident on the track nearly took his life, and now he seeks refuge to try and build a new one. The quaint town's slow pace rattles the man whose first love is fast cars--and then there's the beautiful innkeeper, who rattles him in different ways. Falling in love with Luna definitely isn't part of Wolfe's plan. Local legends that tell of unrequited love and despair? Unbelievable. But stranger things have happened, like two strangers falling in love... “𝙎𝙩𝙖𝙮 𝙖𝙬𝙖𝙮 𝙛𝙧𝙤𝙢 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝘾𝙤𝙫𝙚 𝘿𝙚𝙫𝙞𝙡𝙨, 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙮’𝙧𝙚 𝙗𝙖𝙙 𝙣𝙚𝙬𝙨.

I’ve been the Angels biggest fan forever. First, for my dad, captain of the Angels and a skydiving legend, and then for his heir and my best friend, Darrius. Only my feelings for Darrius run deeper than just friendship and I can’t keep that secret to myself. That was my first mistake. When Darrius rejects me, breaking my heart beyond repair, his three rivals - the Cove Devils one and all - are there to help me pick up the pieces. Is this my second mistake? I want 𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗲 against the man who broke my heart. The Devils want to destroy their rival. 𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗜 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗹𝘀—𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗯𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗿𝘀—𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗵𝗼𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗱𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗿𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗲?

This is an 𝒆𝒙𝒕𝒓𝒆𝒎𝒆 𝒔𝒑𝒐𝒓𝒕𝒔 story where the heroine won’t have to choose between her different love interests. It has steamy scenes, swearing, danger and mild violence. Suitable only for readers aged 18+ I am Kitten. Watch me play! They call me Kitten. I’m their plaything, and I love it. I thrive on it. I need it. Why? It’s like an itch I can’t quite scratch. A craving that doesn’t take away the hunger. A compulsion that I can’t control. It’s all-consuming in every way. I thought I’d come to terms with how my future looked. Meaningless sex. Lots and lots of meaningless sex. Bodies writhing, skin slapping, moans filling the air. It’s who I am, and I don’t allow myself to think too much about how I’ll never have a normal relationship. I’ll never be able to commit 100% to one person. When a ghost from my past sends me spiralling, any sort of control over my ailment is lost, and I find myself walking the dark path of self-destruction. No one knows the depravity of my past. If they did, they wouldn’t want anything to do with me. As I try to rein in my demons, I find myself in a compromising position that reveals one of my secrets to the Casanova of my school. If that isn’t bad enough, my ex has his sights set on me again, a playful friend steps over the line with me, and another brooding mate is seething with anger at me. Rightfully so, since all four of them are best mates. Throw in a sex club run by predators posing as high-class citizens, a contract that I signed when I was way too young to understand the fine print, and a man who is fifteen years older than me, which has me bratting it up all over the place, and my existence is on a path to fuckery. How the hell do I get myself in these situations? And how in the hell am I going to get myself out this time? CONTENT WARNING I’m Rhys George. Welcome to my dark and depraved world.

The hero cop and his wife have long been the dream couple, earning the affection of those around them, yet within their home is a couple who has lost their passion—a husband content in the life they’ve created and a wife longing for the thrill and heart-pounding nights of their earlier years. When new neighbors move onto their idyllic street, Leilani is intrigued when she learns of their secret life. Looking for a new way to connect with her husband, Leilani convinces Clayton to step out of his comfort zone and into a forbidden union—and a world of trouble. Actions go too far, and suddenly, a husband’s innocence is on the line as he defends himself to the public he serves, but he will stop at nothing to safeguard the woman he loves. Her life is in danger and only he can protect her because beyond the white picket fences and flowery facade, vows are forever, even when temptation is everywhere. Come inside the world of Stolen Desire. One man will do anything to keep her safe. The other will do anything to see her dead. For the last five years, I've been living as Olivia Tucker. With a cautious eye over my shoulder, I've been hiding in Seattle, staying anonymous, keeping a low-profile at a small interior design company. Until Grant Brexton. Billionaire, CEO of Hall and Brexton, he's known as Seattle's Best Playboy, the man who keeps Seattle under his heel. As his new personal assistant, our attraction should be forbidden. But Grant isn't merely a man who sets my heart on fire. He teaches me to be as strong as he is. To live ruthlessly and without apologizing. Most of all, Grant teaches me how to stop living in the shadows of fear. Our love is unstoppable. Our bond is unbreakable. Or so I think. Lonnie, the man who murdered my husband, proves he's still looking for me. And just like five years before, he could rip everything away. Grant included. It will be up to me to walk in the power I've become familiar with and maintain control over my life. |
