Kate Treanor gave up hope of having a family of her own when her fiancé died three years ago. But miracles—and mistakes—happen. After a scorching one-night stand with a stranger leaves her pregnant, Kate’s determined to raise the baby by herself. But when she encounters the criminally charismatic baby-daddy at her best friend’s wedding, she’s torn between getting him to sign away his parental rights and getting him back in bed. Playboy Oliver Mercier is thrilled when Kate reappears in his life—until it turns out she’s more interested in having him forfeit his responsibilities than repeating a night he’s never forgotten. Oliver is faced with upending his lifestyle to become a co-parent with the baby-mama he’ll never stop wanting. He won't stop fighting for her, because he can't fight this feeling. Readers of Meghan Quinn and Melanie Harlow will enjoy this stand-alone, full-length, accidental pregnancy romance in the steamy, funny series about four bridesmaids in a society Santa Barbara wedding who form a pact to be Never a Bride.

Book excerpt: Two powerhouse authors bring you a hilarious tale of one woman’s journey to find herself again. Ever have one of those days where life just plain sucks? Welcome to my last three months—ever since I caught my can’t-be-soon-enough ex-husband cheating with his paralegal. I’m thirty-five years old, and I’ve lost my NYC apartment, my job, my money, and frankly, my dignity. But the final heartache in the suck sandwich of my life? My great-aunt Maggie died. The only family member who’s ever gotten me. Even after death, though, she’s helping me get back up. She’s willed me the keys to a house in the burbs, of all places, and dared me to grab life by the family jewels. Well, I’ve got the vise grips already in hand (my ex should take note) and I’m ready to fight for my life again. Too bad that bravado only lasts as long as it takes to drive into Huckleberry Hills. And see the house. There are forty-seven separate HOA violations, and I feel them all in my bones. Honestly, I’m surprised no one’s “accidentally” torched the house yet. I want to, and I’ve only been standing in front of it for five minutes. But then my hot, grumpy neighbor tells me to mow the lawn first and I’m just...done. Done with men too sexy for their own good and done with anyone telling me what to do. First rule of surviving the burbs? There is nothing that YouTube and a glass of wine can’t conquer.

He has enough of his own without Sara Shapiro, the noisy new reconstructive surgeon, stomping all around his surgical wing with her chippy, chirpy cheerfulness. But Sebastian doesn't usually get what he wants. No one gets under his skin like Sara - so much so a heated "debate" and an exam room left in shambles later, they land themselves in eight weeks of hospital-mandated conflict resolution counseling.

I made a fortune when I sold my tech start-up, and I’ve spent the years since partying, drinking, and inviting a parade of women into my bed. I should be happy, but I feel an annoying lack of fulfillment, and there’s no way I’m going back to the work I did before. At a friend’s party, I meet Marissa. We have hot sex against the door and agree to spend the weekend together. Just one weekend. I never expect to see her again. Except now she’s pregnant with my baby…and I think this is the solution to all my problems. This is what will bring meaning to my life. I’m going to be a devoted father and husband. Marissa—whose last name I still don’t know—wants me to be involved, though she rejects my marriage proposal. But before the baby arrives, I’m going to prove to her that I can be something other than a playboy. And the rare times I set my mind to something, I don’t fail… Jackie Lau writes soft and steamy romances with Asian characters, all set in Canada.

Book excerpt: From Colleen Hoover, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of It Starts with Us and It Ends with Us, a heart-wrenching love story that proves attraction at first sight can be messy. When Tate Collins meets airline pilot Miles Archer, she doesn't think it's love at first sight. They wouldn’t even go so far as to consider themselves friends. The only thing Tate and Miles have in common is an undeniable mutual attraction. Once their desires are out in the open, they realize they have the perfect set-up. He doesn’t want love, she doesn’t have time for love, so that just leaves the sex. Their arrangement could be surprisingly seamless, as long as Tate can stick to the only two rules Miles has for her. Never ask about the past. Don’t expect a future. They think they can handle it, but realize almost immediately they can’t handle it at all. Hearts get infiltrated. Promises get broken. Rules get shattered. Love gets ugly.

Book excerpt: It was only supposed to be one night...until two pink lines changed everything. Lexi It was completely out of character for me to be so reckless. Losing my parents at a young age and then growing up in the foster system made me closed off, but when my only friend asked me to go out to a club with her, I couldn’t say no. Little did I know that one decision would lead to meeting the sexiest man I’ve ever laid eyes on. I deserved to let loose and have a little fun for a change. So I did. All. Night. Long. But I know better than most how much reality can ruin something beautiful, so to preserve the memory of the best night of my life, I leave my handsome stranger with no note and no last name. Nothing but the memories of how perfectly our bodies fit together. Until two pink lines show up on a pregnancy test six weeks later and force me to re-evaluate my plans. Tyler Six weeks after one of the hottest nights of my life, I’m losing hope that I’ll find her. I’ve exhausted all attempts, short of hiring a PI, which even my friends tell me is going too far. I'm one of the best football players in the league with nearly unlimited resources. If I can't find her, maybe it's time to admit that she doesn't want to be found. With no choice but to accept that she’s gone without a trace, I’ve all but given up hope. Until my doorman says he turned a woman away. I’m pissed and desperate to find her. My wish comes true when she shows up again the next day and drops a huge bomb I never saw coming. Admittedly, I don’t have the best response to her news. Now, I’ve got to prove to her that I’m in this for her–and not just our baby. But will she believe me when someone close to me ends up causing the biggest threat to our relationship? This is a steamy accidental pregnancy sports romance. It is book 7 in the LA Wolves Football series but can be read as a standalone.

Book excerpt: I didn’t notice her before…but now I do. The shiny strands of gold in her silky brown hair. Tiny crinkles between her eyebrows when she frowns. Her passion for neatness. Once I focus on her, I can’t take my eyes from my newest obsession. Ever. I need to know everything about her. Her past. Her present. The way she takes her coffee. Exactly how she smells after a spritz of perfume in the mornings. She’s perfect in every way and I was blind. But, God, now do I see. I notice the organized way she arranges her clothes in her closet. How she visits the same market each Saturday. The sounds of her breathing as I lie beneath her bed in silence. Violet is mine. She just doesn’t know it yet. ***WARNING*** Notice is a dark and unusual romance.

Book excerpt: BOOKER PRIZE WINNER • NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A novel that follows a middle-aged man as he contends with a past he never much thought about—until his closest childhood friends return with a vengeance: one of them from the grave, another maddeningly present. A novel so compelling that it begs to be read in a single setting, The Sense of an Ending has the psychological and emotional depth and sophistication of Henry James at his best, and is a stunning achievement in Julian Barnes's oeuvre. Tony Webster thought he left his past behind as he built a life for himself, and his career has provided him with a secure retirement and an amicable relationship with his ex-wife and daughter, who now has a family of her own. But when he is presented with a mysterious legacy, he is forced to revise his estimation of his own nature and place in the world.

Book excerpt: Looking for non-shifter, MPREG love? You’ve found it. This series is spiced with generous amounts of steamy scenes. Check out the included stories: 1. Non-Shifter's MPREG Lust In a world without women, men must think outside the box. Transforming men into women? The thought never crossed my mind until it was a possibility. We have three candidates, and they're all perfect for it. With soft and smooth skin, big and expressive eyes, and perfect behinds, they make me obsess over them even though I'm straight. I mean, I still keep my wedding ring on my finger. I know that like the back of my hand, and yet something still peppers my crush on them. A couple of hours later, it's done. One of the candidates has finally become a woman, and I still look at him as a man. We want to have our way with her (or should it be 'him'?) and we'll all take turns. I'll roam my hands over her smooth, curvy legs. I'll pepper her neck with scalding kisses, and then we'll cream inside. By the time we're done, she might never be able to walk again… 2. MPREG Love Cole is a sight for sore eyes and a cowboy like no other. Sporting a body with a perfect shape, full lips that make me want to kiss him, and something big and naughty under his pants, I'm hooked to him before I even realize what's going on. But it wasn't meant to be, and he comes back months later telling me that he's… pregnant. My life turns upside down after a hot night with him. His intense eyes are locked with mine as we make the craziest decision of our lives. It doesn't matter that he's much older than me and much more experienced. Now that he has our little one in his belly, I need to be the knot they can't live without. 3. Merrily Pregnant Jake's different. Grumpy, tall, looks older than his real age and is fit even though he doesn't work out. He's unlike most men that live in the apartment complex after the fall of society. Not being rough and unkind like them, he isn't looking for his next hookup, and he never thought that he was going to find his true love in another man. Richard works the nights, being the resident's plaything when they are bored with their usual partners. He has a 'gift' that straight men love, and he knows how to push all of their buttons. That's why he's so desired. He's been seeking, his whole life, the possibility of settling down with someone. Maybe Jake would fit the bill, but he doesn't seem interested. Plus, he's pretty sure that he's so straight that his gift doesn't mean anything to him. But then it takes an unlikely chain of events, a fight that should never have happened, until he finds himself pregnant with Jake's baby. They don't know what life has in store for them, and now they need to flee from the building where they live as soon as possible. They know danger is coming.

He's cruel, he's evil, and he's ready to destroy anything and anyone that gets in the way of his plans for complete control. Elise has no idea what is in store for her. All she knows is that she can try to survive her life for the rest of her days with Luca. Update from author: I'm listening!

Maybe it's all an illusion and I should erase him from my heart once and for all? If only we could draw our own path through life. Start over. But it's never as simple as erasing the past, not when you're drawn to Mr. King. ★★★★★ This is a steamy, contemporary romance intended for readers aged 18 years and older★★★★★

Book excerpt: Hailed as “one of the best writers in the business” by Susan Elizabeth Phillips, multi-award-winning author Maggie Osborne delivers hilarious and heartrending tales of resilient women full of grit, pride, and dignity who shine through hard times. Now meet the most irresistible and independent heroine of them all, a woman called Low Down, who never had anything good happen to her until the day she asked for the one thing that only a man could give her. . . . As scruffy and rootless as the other prospectors searching for gold in the Rockies, Low Down wanted nothing in return for nursing a raggedy bunch through the pox. But when pressed to reveal her heart's wish, she admits, "I want a baby." Not a husband, not a forced marriage to the proud man who drew the scratched marble and became honor bound to marry her. To be sure, Max McCord was easy on the eyes, but he loved another woman and dreamed of a different life. Yet they agreed to a temporary marriage that could end only in disaster. But can this strange twist of fate lead to the silver lining that both have been searching for?

Eighteen months into their marriage, however, Sandro has turned to ice. Desperate to escape a relationship that has proven to be as stubbornly passionate as it is cold and hateful, Theresa summons up the courage to ask for a divorce. But before he'll grant her request, Sandro demands something from Theresa: a son. The stalemate sickens her. Never mind that Sandro has yet to introduce Theresa to the large family that means so much to him. Or that Theresa overhears her husband on the phone with a mystery woman. Most damning is that Theresa senses, in Sandro's treatment of her, the behind-the-scenes machinations of Jackson Noble, her cruel father. From the depths of her anxiety, Theresa must seek an empowering truth about the husband who calls her, with such cold affection, his cara, his beloved.
