He captivated me the first time I saw him. I was drawn to him, curious about the mysterious, soft spoken older man. I convinced myself there was no way someone so worldly would be interested in a shy, inexperienced guy like me. I’m careful what I reveal, choosing instead to live with what if.

Even a small town girl can have big dreams... Marcie Brooks has returned to her home town with a baby and a ring on her finger. But for all her grandmother's insistence that she's a young widow, the truth is the only boy Marcie has ever loved tragically died before he could make good his promise to wed her. Sometimes she still feels his presence near her, which is both a comfort and an unnerving sign that she's inherited her grandmother's gifts...

Two tickets to paradise. After some disappointing dates, Karen Ramirez has concluded that great sex is for other people. Especially since medical school won't leave her much time for romance anyway. Then she runs into tall, dark, charming, and ridiculously wealthy Mark Lansing - and quickly reconsiders celibacy. Adding to temptation? Mark will be the best man at her sister's wedding and the nuptial destination is sultry Puerto Rico. Now this trip might just be sensory overload - or the perfect chance for Karen to find the groove she's never had.

Holly Hands. 29. Single mom. Disgraced, former boxing pro. Repo woman. Repossessing Lamborghinis and other exotic toys from criminals is second-hat for Holly. But finding a dead body — and solving a murder — is not. Luckily, Holly has Lucky by her side — a neglected pit bull she found on the wrong side of a job, who refuses to leave her side — and who, like her, has nowhere to go but up.

Single dad. Two words that force me out of bed every morning. Because two little girls depend on me. Because my family’s company depends on me. As CEO, I have to show up, lead, be present. As Dad, there’s no room for error, not when it comes to raising my girls. I’m no longer the same man, just a shell of a person I once was, going through the motions every day. Not seeing, barely breathing. Until Becky Summers, the new nanny.

Can I tell you a secret? I'm a chameleon shifter...and I've spent the past year posing as my 80-year-old best friend. No one can ever know what I really look like! Not even my three hot, fated mates: The sweetest bear shifter, a seductive vampire mage, and a hot troll cop who vows to protect me. If I can't keep my feelings for them hidden, my true identity will be discovered and I'll end up dead - or worse!

I believe in fairy tales - the kind where a knight in shining armor sweeps me off my feet. Coming from a broken home, fairy tales housed the hope I clung to. Never in my life did I imagine two knights coming into my life - two knights that wore very different armor. A rockstar versus a lawyer. Fast and furious versus deliberate and calculated. Intense and passionate versus strong and devoted. Chaos versus stability.

I don't know when it happened. I didn't think it'd ever happen. I can't lose her. I can't even imagine losing her. Rule number six: This is supposed to be fun. Understand? He's my bad boy and I'm his good girl. And, yes, he's my stepbrother and I'm his stepsister.

You have no idea what's for dinner tonight. You need a gift for that party next week. You still haven't consolidated your super. You're out of contract on your phone and paying who knows what. Those cupboards won't declutter themselves. The kids need a plan for the next school holidays. It's time to get the gutters cleaned. You still haven't made a will.

Love is the sweetest venom. Lawrence: I told her I wanted her body and not her love. I lied. Ronan: I fell in love with a lie.... She was beauty and destruction. Kissing her was a tender song. Owning her body, a wild poem. Loving her, my downfall. But she was mine. Or so I thought.

Grace Hamilton was the girl with a plan. She knew exactly where her life was going and prided herself on always achieving her goals. It was who she was, and how she lived her life. She never stepped outside the lines, and never considered what she might desire and whom she was actually trying so hard to please. Until him...

Rule number one - It's only supposed to last for a week.... Ethan is a cocky, arrogant jerk. He's always been that way. I'll never understand why girls trip over themselves just to be with him. Don't they realize he's going to ditch them in a week?

Niemand glaubt, dass mein Algorithmus funktionieren kann und wirklich dazu in der Lage ist, die nächsten Taten von Serienkillern vorherzusagen – nicht mein Professor, nicht mein Freund, nicht meine Familie. Nur die Weirdos aus den Internetforen, die mich mit Daten versorgen, vertrauen in meine Fähigkeiten. Dann passiert es endlich. Mein Programm sagt einen Mord voraus. Selbstverständlich muss ich überprüfen, ob die Vorhersage stimmt, allerdings kann ich wohl kaum guten Gewissens einen Mord beobachten. Also muss ich ihn verhindern.

I thought I was a good girl, but then why do I love hearing all of the naughty things he says he wants to do to me? Rule number three: You can change your mind, Ashley. Not just now. Whenever. I could tell Ethan that the only thing I'll regret about this is that we only have a week together. Except I can never tell him that. I need to stop. I need to understand that this is a temporary situation, and that I'll never have it ever again, because no matter what, it won't work out, whether I want it to or not.

We all have our strengths and weakness. We're all good at something and bad at something else. This is why we need each other. This is why it makes sense for Ethan and me to be together. I'm the good girl, the careful, cautious one who thinks before she acts. Ethan is the bad boy, the risk taker, the person who jumps into action regardless of the consequences. Sometimes you can't wait to think before you act, though. Sometimes you can't be careful or cautious.
