Minutes before Mariah gets married, her maid of honor shows her a viral video. In it, a woman tells the internet about the magical night she spent with a handsome stranger in Nashville-and asks for help finding the man she believes is her soulmate. Mariah happens to know exactly where he is. He's waiting at the end of the aisle for her. After creating a viral moment of her own, Mariah spends the next two months hiding from the unwanted fame that turned the worst day of her life into a public spectacle-and transformed her into the infamous Burn It All Bride. Then she meets a gruff, devastatingly handsome stranger on a flight who has absolutely no idea who she is. With him, she doesn't have to be the heartbroken bride millions of strangers think they know. She can just be Ivy. And the quiet Texan beside her becomes Tex. When an emergency landing strands them for one night in the city Mariah has cast as the villain in her story, she is determined to make the best of it with the man who is already making Nashville feel different. As the attraction between them becomes impossible to ignore, they agree on three rules. One night. No real names. No promises beyond morning. And no chance of ever forgetting each other. They walk away the next morning believing their perfect night will remain exactly that-a beautiful memory neither of them is allowed to chase. Mariah is still rebuilding the life her cheating fiancé destroyed. And Tex... Tex is trying to start over after betrayal cost him everything he worked years to create. Until fate brings them together again on Beaumont Ranch, and the stranger Mariah promised to leave behind becomes impossible to walk away from twice. Some nights break your heart. Some nights heal you. And some nights change you forever.

For eight years, he's devoted his life to a single case- one that has demanded everything and cost him more than he ever imagined. What Danny never planned for was Tia. For the past four years, she's been his wife, his rock, and the one constant in a life built on secrets. She's the reason every sacrifice has been worth it and the reason he's ready to walk away from his career. Now, one final undercover deployment, the climax of everything he's worked for stands between Danny and the desk job that promises a future beyond the secrets and the double life. But as the operation hurtles toward its end, Danny is dragged deeper into the life he's spent years trying to keep separate. With the case closing in and the stakes higher than ever, he faces an impossible choice. How far is he willing to go to finish the mission he's sacrificed so much for? This time, the price of success won't be measured in years, careers, or half truths. It could cost him Tia, the family they've dreamed of, and everything that truly matters to him.

And she never expected how dangerous love could be.

Emily Calloway runs the village surgery of Dr. Hartley and Dr. Hargrove with quiet, unfailing competence and asking for very little in return.'What would I do without you?' Dr. Hargrove says more than once. But when a beautiful blonde arrives at the surgery one afternoon with monogrammed luggage and every appearance of belonging at Dr. Hargrove's side, Emily discovers there are some heartbreaks no amount of discipline can keep neatly contained, and Dr. Hargrove will discover exactly what life without Emily Calloway is like. This is a vintage old school Mills & Boon-style inspired tale, but with a stronger heroine, and a little grovel thrown in.

One lesson I learned very early in life was to be cheerful, to be agreeable, to do as I was told and ask for nothing, and to never ever complain. Smile Maddie. Be happy Maddie. Don't make trouble and maybe they'll love you. I grew into an adult who took care of others and never expected that those I loved would take care of me in return. I gave and never asked, never expected, never demanded. Smile Maddie. Be happy Maddie. Don't make trouble and you'll find someone that will love you. And then one day, a Dragon walked into my workplace and turned my world upside down with a single wink. Having grown up watching his father treat his men like they were disposable, just meat bags to be fed into the grinder, Dragon was determined to be different when he became president of the Dragon's Inferno MC. He cares about his people. He takes care of them. He was upfront with me, taking care of his MC and those he considered to be his would always be his priority. And I agreed to that, I joined him in that mission, throwing myself into becoming the perfect old lady of the prez. Smile Maddie. Act happy Maddie. Take care of them and maybe they'll love you. Smile Maddie. Be happy Maddie. Don't complain and maybe he'll love you. I told myself I was independent. I was strong. And I didn't need my Dragon to take care of me. And I almost believed it. Almost. But now I'm watching him with her. I'm watching him comfort her. I'm watching him listen to her, support her, reassure her. I'm watching him take time from his day to check in with her. I'm watching him worry about her. I'm watching them become closer right in front of my eyes. I'm seeing every thoughtful gesture he does for her. And me? I'm not happy. I'm not smiling. I'm done being agreeable. Fuck not causing trouble. I'm about to set my Dragon's world on fire. And then I'm walking away. She can have him. For the first time in my life, I'm choosing myself.

US: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0HB6871H2 UK: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0HB6871H2 In emergency medicine, the golden hour is the crucial sixty-minute window after a traumatic injury-the brief span of time when the right care can mean the difference between life and death. Dr. Mason Carpenter lives for that hour. At St. Mary's Trauma Center, he is the golden boy of the Emergency Department. He's brilliant and calm under pressure. He's also addicted to the adrenaline, the thrill, and the absolute rush of saving patients knocking on death's door. At home, he's a devoted husband to his high school sweetheart-the love of his life-Honey. Or, he used to be. Honey Carpenter has loved Mason since they were fourteen, when he was the gangly boy with hearts in his eyes who stumbled through asking her out for ice cream. She stood beside him through medical school, residency, crushing debt, sleepless nights, and every sacrifice it took to build the life they dreamed about. Now Honey is pregnant with their first child. And Mason is married to his work. He misses ultrasound appointments, pregnancy milestones, and the baby shower. Worst of all, he is never there to support Honey through an increasingly difficult pregnancy. No matter how many times she tells him she is lonely, exhausted, and afraid, Mason gives her the same answer. "They need me." But Honey needs him too. As her pregnancy progresses and she feels something is deeply wrong, her doctor dismisses her symptoms as first-time-mom jitters. Her husband is too busy saving strangers to see his own wife fading away. Until Honey collapses at home and is rushed into Mason's emergency room, fighting for both her life and their daughter's. Mason must reckon with what he was chasing, what he ignored, and what his absence may cost him-the woman he loves more than anything. Now, the golden hour belongs to Honey. And Mason may already be too late.
