It wasn't supposed to mean anything. Just one night. Sydney Hale goes home with a stranger who's charming, funny, and way too easy to talk to. The chemistry is instant, the sex is unforgettable-and somehow, they end up staying up half the night laughing, talking, and getting to know each other in a way that feels dangerously real. It scares her. So the next morning, she does what she always does when things start to matter-she leaves. No goodbye. No explanation. She moves on. Except he doesn't. Carson-which was not the name he told her-can't stop thinking about the woman who slipped through his fingers. He's drawn to her in a way that has nothing to do with attraction and everything to do with connection. He texts. He calls. He shows up. He wants more. Sydney wants distance. Then she sees a headline. A photo. A name she doesn't recognize-until she does. Carson Beck. The biggest, hottest quarterback in the NFL. A notorious playboy with a reputation for chewing through women and walking away without a second glance. The realization hits hard: she didn't just sleep with a stranger-she slept with him. Now she's caught between panic and disbelief. Because the man she spent the night with doesn't match the one splashed across every sports page. And despite his reputation, Carson is still chasing her like she's the only woman who exists. She knows better than to fall for a quarterback who lives under stadium lights and headlines. But Carson Beck has never wanted anything the way he wants Sydney Hale. And this time, he refuses to fumble her twice.

Sci-fi nut, blonde bombshell, and severely no filter Brooke is ready for a fresh start. Done are the days of trashy boyfriends, who couldn't find the right spot if there were fluorescent signs pointing to it, and deadbeat mega mooches. Not to mention, the one night stands that leave you having to take a mental inventory of exactly what you've brought with you, when you're trying to make a speedy exit. That is until she meets Deacon. The mountain of a man she wouldn't mind trekking up to reach the top. He's the right kind of charming, the perfect amount of flirt, and the first guy who hasn't looked stumped when she opens her mouth to sass. In fact he's lightning quick on the sass himself. There's just one problem.. He doesn't date. In fact, Deacon's specialty is the one night of hot, sweaty fun. Something which Brooke is avoiding like the damn plague. However, when the conversations flow on, the insane attraction grows stronger, and the time spent together gets more heated, will they be able to resist the obvious pull they have towards each other forever?... Or does the man who never dates, have a reason for it that might tear them apart over and over...

For as long as Maiana Brandy knew she had always kept herself buried in her work. Being one of the full time lead editors to a prestigious company in New York City tended to keep her busy, and the numerous dates her best friends put her on definitely left no room for her to focus on anything else in her life, like an actual steady relationship. So she went on the dates, but she never actually dated any one of the men she met. Her life was normal, repetitive and actually began to grow tedious, but she never changed any of it. Maia basked in the comfort and ignored that her mind craved something more than what she already had, that is until one day she meets someone new. The handsome, rich, and extremely secretive Aron Noir King. One broken down elevator ride. A few measly glances. And some simple exchange in conversation seemed to change her entire life from the typical unvarying days. Suddenly she is pulled into something she had never signed up for. Desire, love, deceit, illegal businesses and secret arrangements which would create something that would change her life completely, for better or for worse, it will turn their worlds up side down. 21+ *** #1 in rich #1 in forcedproximity #1 in attraction #1 in businessman #1 in obsession #1 in mysterious #1 in egotistic

I trusted her with everything. My love. My lust. My future. I surrendered it all to her, willingly. I just never thought her past would come knocking ...

Addie Greene has spent her life doing things the right way. Keeping her head down, her reputation intact, and her heart carefully guarded. In a town where everyone knows her name, and her father, there's no room for mistakes. Beau Taylor doesn't do relationships. After an accident that changed everything, he's built a life on control, routine, and keeping people at a distance. It's easier that way. And Addie Greene? She's not easy. What starts as a simple match online, turns into something neither of them can walk away from-late-night conversations, quiet understanding, and a connection that feels a little too real, a little too fast. But in a town that watches everything-and a past that doesn't let go easily-wanting each other is the easy part. Trusting it is harder. Choosing it is riskier. And fighting for it? That might cost them everything. Because loving each other might be the one thing they can't afford...and the one thing they can't let go.

A professional hockey player nearing retirement falls hard for his best friend's much younger and seemingly uninterested sister, but things change when she needs a place to stay and he offers up his home and his bed. *** After one too many drinks and a little too much chemistry, Bryce Roehm wakes up next to Maria Evans-and nothing has ever felt more wrong... or more right. Bryce, a seasoned defenseman for the New York Empires, is in his final season before retirement. Known for his bad-boy reputation and commitment to bachelorhood, he's the last person who should be hooking up with his best friend's little sister. Especially when Maria is eight years younger, working hard to finish college, and nannying for one of his teammates. They agree to keep their one-night stand a secret. No harm, no foul. But secrets never stay buried for long. Maria's finally building a life she's proud of-free from her controlling father and determined to stand on her own two feet. She's not looking for complications. And Bryce? He's as complicated as they come. So when circumstances force them to live under the same roof, one thing becomes clear: How are they supposed to keep their hands-and hearts-to themselves?
