"A sunshiny bookworm's life explodes when her best friend's atrocious brother proposes in this steamy and electrifying romance by Wall Street Journal bestselling author Nicole Snow.
Big dreams come with bigger catches. Mine came wrapped in a merciless suit—Ethan Blackthorn. Billionaire tyrant. My bestie's older brother. Bane of my childhood and jackwagon of the century. Now he's my flipping fiancé. All thanks to a brutal six–month marriage clause in his grandfather's will.
He promised me everything to play along. An eye–popping payout. The bookstore of my dreams. Plus, a nice glittery Cinderella break from reality. But that's not what steals my breath away. He's taking this too seriously. He's kissing me like it means something. He's ready to declare war when other men dare look at me.
I don't understand. The conceited, incurable monster who used to make me cry now lives for my smiles and is making this so hard. Between his secrets and obsession, do I even stand a chance? How do I forget the vows we never made if they start feeling sacred?
A deliciously sweet and stormy standalone romance with a heart–pounding fight to ever after. Irresistible tropes inside: grumpy x sunshine, best friend's brother, marriage of convenience."

"Bestselling author Nicole Snow returns with a hilariously uplifting standalone romance where two jaded friends next door bring their lost hearts home.
It's all sunshine and butterflies until your brother's best friend dropkicks your heart. I knew I had it coming with Weston McKnight. The Adonis next door. The fever crush. The always protector. The man who walked away after pulverizing my soul.
Seven years ago, he left our little town with a promise he couldn't keep. I waited. I worried. I suffered. I stopped chasing dreams built on that boy's mile-wide shoulders. Then I found the pig—and sweet chaos found me.
I had to rescue that poor squealing baby before he was roadkill. I didn't know he belonged to Captain McGrumpy. I never guessed I'd collide with a scowling, moody, scary-hot West again. Same man. New secrets. Oh, but that all too familiar tension . . .
We're stuck as frenemy neighbors for the next two months. Facing a dilemma with bittersweet memories and flaming glances.
What's the harm in seeking a little closure? Massive. Can we even use words without risking an all out kissing war? Well . . . Am I in trouble with my worst best friend again? Definitely.

"Muskeln, Tattoos, ein eisiger Blick - für alle anderen ist er ein Monster. Für mich ist er die Liebe meines Lebens. Ich wollte nie wieder nach Heart's Edge zurückkehren.

Alles hier erinnert mich an Leo, den jeder nur Nine nennt. Seit Jahren hat man ihn nicht mehr gesehen, doch ich weiß, dass er noch irgendwo hier ist.

Niemals wieder wollte ich zurückkehren. Aber jetzt bin ich hier und bringe mein größtes Geheimnis mit ... Der dritte Teil der großen 'Heroes of Heart's Edge' Reihe!"
"Smart und clever. Gutaussehend. Schlecht gelaunt. Darf ich vorstellen: mein neuer Chef.
Ember arbeitet gerne in ihrer neuen Stelle als Tierarzthelferin, allerdings sind ihre vierbeinigen Patienten alle kerngesund.

Der heißeste Tierarzt aller Zeiten, umschwärmt, begehrt und ungemein sexy.

"Bossy. Schlechtgelaunt. Unfreundlich. Ein Herz aus Stein. Kurzum: er ist der absolute Albtraum. Und er wohnt direkt nebenan... In letzter Zeit ging bei Haley alles schief.

"He knew I was trouble the instant I showed up with a stolen Bengal tiger. But Grady McKnight didn't flinch like a sane person—he took us in. Bruce the tiger found shelter. I met a hero grump. And Grady got a hot mess. Namely, me.
Born-to-sizzle single dads and rogue zoologists don't play nice.
So freaking what if I said I'm his nanny? We needed a story when his two sweet daughters barged in.
Hiding a contraband tiger isn't easy. Neither is pretending he isn't sending my pulse to pitter-patter heaven.
Cupid, you sneaky little nugget. There's only room for one hulking, growly, mesmerizing beast in my life. I don't belong at warm family dinners, or in the fortress of his arms. Saving Bruce is my mission—not falling in love.
This won't end well. The longer I stay, the more he grins. Walls come crashing down, and my heart becomes willing prey for his carnivorous eyes. I must resist Grady flipping McKnight. Even if a scared, aching part of me knows I'm already his. Even if I know he's the hero I need . . .
Contains mature themes."
"Just friends? Is a peach pie to the face 'just' a little mishap? I know what I felt the day Quinn Faulkner saved me from death by dessert. My best friend was always The One. The Impossible. Older. Flawless. Brutally gorgeous. A small-town prince of summer crushes. Leagues above a tag-along dance nerd like me.
Years later, my uncle needs a goat wrangler. I just need an escape. What better way to flee a cheating ex and dumpster fire career? What better way to collide with the boy who got away? And now he's an atrociously hot, mysterious, overprotective beast.
Breathe in. Breathe out. I'm grown up now. Unmoved by his slayer charms and heart-stompy memories. I can't stay to unravel his darkness—or savor his vows to protect me. We're safely platonic.
Until the Ferris wheel incident. Then we're alone with a tension so thick you can chew it. Quinn kisses me like no tomorrow. Truly. Madly. All in. I wanted to piece my life back together. Will shattering the best friend zone leave us whole or heartbroken?
Contains mature themes."
"He never bothered with hello. The shrieking hot stranger had me dizzy the instant he said we're engaged. Then he chased off the bully on our heels and dragged me back to his place for the night.
Pure insanity, right?
Wrong. You don't let pride do the talking when you're homeless, on the run, and hauling around your sick father in a truck so old it must've been on Noah's Ark. You definitely don't complain when Ridge Barnet takes charge. (In)famous heartthrob. Stinking rich. Fed up owner of one angry rooster. Eyes set to permanent storm.
Of course, it doesn't end there. My unexpected Romeo doubles down on this ridiculous 'fake fiancée' rescue scheme. One blazing kiss shatters worlds. I'm swept up in a small-town fairy tale, wishing I hadn't lost my faith in wishes years ago.
He's saving my life. Hero and done. Nothing more. Prince Charmings don't really marry pumpkin farmers from Wisconsin. Give me strength. Tell me his gaze doesn't scream obsession. Save me from his oh-so-believable growls. Help me believe our little arrangement never, ever ends in 'I do.'
Contains mature themes."
"BEKAH
He was just a hookup. I wasn't supposed to see him again.
He wasn't supposed to be my boss. Or dad's new business partner. We weren't supposed to keep doing this, night after sheet-clenching, heart-pounding, lip-biting night.
Look, I'm not stupid. Grant Shaw doesn't settle his gorgeous, cocky, billionaire self down with anyone. Especially not with me, the intern who could cost him everything.
But I haven't told him the big secret yet—or should I say, the little one?
GRANT
Until her, I never broke my cardinal rule: one and done. I was the man who left them aching for more. I was Wall Street incarnate, too busy to wife up any woman. I was in control.
Now? I've met obsession, and its name is Bekah.
Obviously, she's wrong for me. Don't make me list all one hundred reasons why.
Obviously, I don't give a damn. I need more. I can't let her turn to ice when we used to be fire.
I'll have my way like always. Even if the price is torching every single rule in my book that says she's off-limits . . .
Contains mature themes."
"ROBBI
Once, Lucus Shaw was my everything.
First kiss. First surrender. First man to promise me a ring, children, a life together.
I remember his rogue smirk, his soul stinging kiss, the blistering words that always made him a little dangerous.
I gave him my body for one insatiable night. He gave me secrets, heartbreak, and hatred.
Friends, to lovers, to mortal enemies. Our tragic destiny. But I survived. Adapted. Moved on.
Fate doesn't care. Luke's back, and I have to pretend we still have a Cinderella romance to save my career.
LUKE
I was her first, and I'll damned sure be her last. I made a promise.
Robbi's an addiction I can't quit. A million of her icy looks won't make me forget what we had.
This isn't over. Love never fades. I'll make our fake kisses real. It's not too late to have it all: my ring on her hand, my name on her lips, my baby in her.
She'll beg for me again before we're done playing pretend. Oh, how she'll beg.
Contains mature themes."
