Kate marches through life in combat boots and crop tops, breaking hearts as fast as she steals them and insisting anything more than an emotionless hook-up is a waste of time. Allison knits her own sweaters, wears socks with tiny strawberries on them, and has spent two years of college utterly failing at her goal of getting a girlfriend before graduation… Read more .

His impulsivity can get him into trouble — trouble like an oopsie baby on the way that Rue is about zero percent ready for. Rue is overwhelmed, but he won’t give Alice up. What he needs is a nanny, and he’s running out of options. He’s on the verge of a breakdown when he remembers his reclusive neighbour, Erik. Erik is a sci-fi novelist with anxiety issues to spare.

Stroked Long by Meghan Quinn

Stroked Long by Meghan Quinn

From his dirty-blond hair and breathtaking smile to the abs from heaven and the irresistible V in his waistline, everything about Bodi Olympic-gold-medalist Banks screams hot piece of ass. Yet there’s more. Dark shadows lurk behind his soulful, serious eyes. I’m enamoured. He’s captured me. How can running an art foundation with Bodi Banks turns into a slow-burning, epic romance, even though he tries to push me away at every chance? How can I stay away from a broken, routine-driven man whose soul cries to be forgiven for a crime only he believes he committed? Or is that a lie?

Obsession by Gemma Weir

Obsession by Gemma Weir

As soon as I realized she existed, I lost the ability to look away. She was always destined to be mine. I’m Sebastian Lockwood; a king among men. And kings get to take what they want. My little bird disagreed. She fought me, and disobeyed me even though we both know she belongs to me. So I broke her, bent her to my will. I pushed too hard, loved too much and she ran from me. But letting her go was impossible. So I chased; hiding in the shadows, silently pulling the strings that would bind her to me. Two years have passed, I’ve waited long enough. It’s time to reclaim my queen; to take what’s mine. The trap is set, a gilded… Read more.
