Carine Bennett has become so pragmatic about dating that she’ll settle for anyone who can make her feel something beyond mere sufferance.
She may be bleakly self-deprecating in her half-serious request for her longtime fetish club peer to have her way with her, but Heidi Dowd doesn’t think there’s anything funny about the suggestion. Although Heidi had vowed to never again be intimate with women who made her their “exception,” she’s willing to put Carine through her paces.
Heidi is confident she can approach their arrangement with professional detachment. However, she soon learns that Carine has more than just an adventurous spirit. She has audacity. And when she insists that Heidi elevate their status beyond the bedroom, Heidi’s immediate instinct is to break things off.
Carine insists that she’s not afraid for everyone to know who she loves, but Heidi’s been around the block too many times. She’s not going to get her hopes up again. Not even dominatrices are immune to getting broken hearts.
Cindy Lawry needs a new roommate now that her sister has moved in with her fiancé. When she can't find anyone, she puts up a flyer in the window of the Curl Up & Dye salon where she works as a hair stylist and at other places around town. With the summer season ending, she can't afford to live alone, and she doesn't want to move in with her mom and her new husband. So the roommate search is on, but she's not getting many inquiries. After growing up in an abusive household, she's anxious about letting a stranger into her home and her life. Jace Carson needs to find a new place to live. The employee housing at the Beachcomer is right out of Animal House, and he's way past the point in life where living like that is fun. All he wants is a quiet place to be in between working as a bartender at the Beachcomber and visits with his young sons, who live on the island. When he sends a text to the number on the flyer he saw at the grocery store, he doesn't expect the recipient to be Cindy, the woman he's been flirting with for weeks at the Beachcomber bar. She comes in and orders water because she suffers from migraines and apologizes for taking up a seat at his bar. He loves having her and her sweet smile at his bar, but he's not sure that living with her would be such a good idea, especially since all he thinks about every time he sees her is how much he'd like to kiss her.
Of all the subs Jennifer works with as a Domme-for-hire for Hooded Pleasures as Danielle, her favorite is Nathan Harrowsford, a sexy, tough yet kind beat cop with a desire to be dominated on his days off.
Though she is responsible for creating a haven for his fantasies, it s he who makes her feel safe. Yet when she learns a violent piece of her past has been let out on parole, she hesitates to bring Nathan anywhere near her complicated world.
Nathan doesn t know anything about Danielle, not even her real name. But when she reluctantly asks for his help, he s determined to move heaven and earth for her safety. Because he s a cop, a man, and her submissive in that order.
When danger hits too close to home, Nathan s race to save her and the rest of her subs pushes him to the edge of his skills, and his feelings for his Domme. Because he s no longer willing to settle for being just her client. He wants her for his full-time lover if they live long enough.
Warning: Sexy cop who raise the heat in the kitchen and out and a man who's not afraid to rise from his knees to guard his lover's back.
Stef blamed the dating app.
She saw his picture—his smile, the rugged line of his jaw, the way the man could fill out a suit, and like an idiot, she fell a bit in love with him.
Idiot because no one ever really looked like their profile pic. Idiot also because if the man did look like his profile pic then he certainly wasn’t going to be into a science geek who binged old Sci-Fi shows on the regular, and whose longest relationship was with her golden retriever named Fred.
But in a night of drunken insanity, she swiped right on the picture she’d been drooling over for months.
Then in a morning of hangover unpleasantness, she saw that he’d swiped right, too.
And suddenly, she found herself on a date with the man of her dreams.
The only question was whether or not he lived up to them.
Isabella Coleman wasn't looking for love when she attended her cousin Wade's wedding in Boston, but she hadn't counted on the bride's father, Cabot Lodge. He's older, wiser and one of the most handsome, charming, and funny men she's ever met. Izzie is instantly smitten, and after a wonderful time at the wedding, she's certain she'll hear from Cabot again soon. But she doesn't hear a word from him until she's back in Boston and invites him to dinner. After yet another fantastic time together, she's once again optimistic-and once again disappointed when she gets nothing but silence from him. Cabot has his reasons for keeping his distance. After his former wife took off with their baby daughter, he spent twenty-five years looking for Mia, who suddenly reappeared in his life as a grown woman with a new husband. He's never been happier than since Mia returned, but those twenty-five years of searching left him with a deep well of bitterness that a sweet woman like Izzie doesn't need in her life. Until Izzy is seriously injured in a car accident, and all bets are off. Bitterness aside, Cabot can think of only getting to her as soon as he possibly can-and staying with her for as long as she'll have him. Now Izzy and Cabot are hunkered down in her cozy home in Vermont, and things are starting to get real. They'll both have to decide if their time together is a temporary interlude or the start of something lasting.
What seems like a lifetime ago, I let her go.
The second she returned, I couldn’t stay away.
Now she’s asked the unthinkable.
If I say yes, I can protect her.
If I say no, she ends up with someone else forever. Or so much worse . . .
The first time I let her go it nearly buried me.
If I do it again it could break us both . . .
I thought arranged marriages died a few centuries ago.
Apparently, my father didn’t get the memo.
In three weeks I’m supposed to say I do to a man I’ve never met.
And the only way I see out of it? Marry someone else first.
The problem is I have one option on such short notice:
The jerk who shattered my heart.
What happens when you mix a shot of rum with a dash of charm?
Audrey just wants to move on and rebuild from a marriage gone wrong. Now she’s focused on launching a local rum distillery into the mainstream, proving to her boss, and herself, she can do it all. She certainly doesn’t need another guy swooping in, thinking he can save her, no matter how irresistible he—or his smile—is. So, when a one-night stand starts turning into something more, she’s determined to enjoy the buzz, but keep away from the hangover.
Jackson has the luck of the draw—good looks, charm, a hit TV show—and whenever he’s not chasing his next star turn, he’s getting some action off the screen. He’s set … or so he thought. For the first time, he’s tempted to ask a woman for more than one night, but she’s already decided he’s better cast as the playboy Casanova than the man at the end of the aisle.
While Jackson’s intent on proving to Audrey he’s the one for her, she’s looking for every way he’s not.
**Love and Rum is a steamy, low angst contemporary romance. It features an independent thirty-something heroine, a gorgeous tv star hero and a guaranteed happily ever after. Sit back, grab a drink, and fall in love.

But not only is his time in the small town coming to an end, he’s also her roommate’s brother. And no matter how much she promises herself they can keep things casual, she can’t deny their connection that only seems to grow stronger the more time they spend together.
Is she setting herself up for heartbreak yet again, or will Oliver fight for her even though the odds are stacked against them?

Note from the author: In order not to get kicked out of the good (okay goodish.... fine, sometimes good) girls club, I’d like to point out that this is a steamy romcom and my characters use bad language (sometimes) and like to get it on. There’s no cheating and all my books have a HEA.

It began with a cock.
Of the rooster variety.
It ended with a groomsman toppling into the wedding cake.
Heidi hadn’t meant to be a bad bridesmaid. She loved her best friend and the man Kate was marrying.
Who she didn’t love?
The groom’s brother.
The cocky—no pun intended—jerk had made Heidi aware of exactly what he thought of her. That being, she wasn’t worth anything more than a quick romp and a disappearing act before the sun rose.
Fine. Whatever. She’d done her own version of the Disappearing Act on more than one occasion. It didn’t matter that she had thought they had shared something . . . well, something more.
Clearly, she’d been wrong, and now he was dead to her.
Of course, that was before she had to walk down the aisle with him.
Because that’s when all hell broke loose.
A pop star. A porn star. What could possibly go wrong?
When Rachel Taylor finds out a porn star will be dancing beside her in her upcoming music video, she is not happy. The pop princess hasn’t clawed her back from near obscurity to be a laughing stock all over again. Especially not if that includes sharing a stage with the infamous Buck Harder. The minute she meets Buck, though, the chemistry between them sizzles, and before long, she wants to share more than a stage with him.
But there’s more to Lee, the man behind the stage name, than the reason he’s so successful in his career. About the time Rachel starts getting to know Lee, though, the music video is released with disastrous results. Her record label, hell bent on cleaning up the image they’ve created, doesn’t want her anywhere near Buck Harder. Thanks to Rachel’s ironclad contract, they have the power to keep them apart.
Except Rachel didn’t make it this far without a stubborn streak, and no amount of distance or interference can keep her from Lee, even if they have to keep it a secret.
But with the label and paparazzi watching her like a hawk, she can only keep this a secret for so long. And when the truth comes out, she’ll have to choose: the career she’s vowed not to lose again, or the man can’t help falling for?
