Can she love a haunted man? 
Scout Lawson is on her way to start a new job for the very rich and very reclusive George Wilder. George was a rock star whose fairy-tale marriage to the beautiful Tessa Richardson Wilder ended tragically when she died in a terrible fall at their beautiful seaside home, Farraway Mist. 
Scout has her own reasons for wanting to get away, and spending some time at the remote location in Cornwall sounds like the perfect solution. However, strange things start to happen almost as soon as she arrives, leaving Scout shaken and questioning her decision. 
George Wilder, too, stirs feelings in her that she thought she'd put away forever. How could she possibly have feelings for someone so taciturn, so mean? And he was married to one of the most beautiful women in the world, their love for each other was famous; surely he couldn't have feelings for her?
??
"Hello," she said, holding her hand out. "I'm Scout."
"You're a girl," he said, surprise making him blunt. "And you're American."
She bit her lips together.
Fuck.
She looked at him.
"Yes on both counts." She took a deep breath. "Not what you were expecting?"
He blinked at her, looking her up and down. "Uh, no, to be perfectly honest." He jammed his hands into the pockets of his jeans.
"Is it going to be a problem?" she asked. "Should I try to get the driver back? Though in my defense, I know my application did mention both those facts."
"Oh, I have no doubt," he responded curtly. "I'm not always the most observant. I probably just saw your name and photograph and assumed you were a man--" And oh shit, had he said that out loud? 
This was not a good beginning.

"Here's the thing though . . ." He trails off thoughtfully and then he looks straight at me. His eyes are steely and that makes me realise the fundamental difference between the young Ryan and this Ryan. He's hardened now. The sweet boy I once knew is probably still in there somewhere but life eventually got to him and he had to toughen up. "I need someone I can rely on. I don't want to take a person on who just decides it's too much hassle a few days or weeks in and just . . . Ghosts me." He finishes. There's a definite challenge there. He's not just talking about the job. He's getting a dig in there about the way I disappeared out of his life. As well as implying I'm generally unreliable . . . ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Iona Stewart is pretty sure she's having a premature midlife crisis.

Michelle's life was almost perfect. Loving family, great college, perfect grades, good friends, and a crush on one of the sweetest guys she's met. The only problem is that a local werewolf has decided she's his mate. With the struggles of falling in love and discovering things about herself she didn't know, she also gets thrown in the middle of a fued between the hunters and the hunted. ***** He finally made eye contact and I couldn't tell what he was thinking, or how he was feeling at that moment. He had me shut out. "Dad won't let her in the pack." "I know." "Are you sure she's human?" I rub my eyes again, they were really beginning to burn. "Yes, unless I've gone absolutely insane." I stopped rubbing my eyes for a moment. "Maybe I am crazy? I feel like it." Caden sighed, "That's the mate bond. The longer you go without, the worse you get." I knew that. I didn't like to think about it, but we all grew up hearing about it. Going crazy, your body shutting down. Wolves weren't meant to be separated from their Soulmates. It physically and mentally drained them until they just one day gave up. I never thought it would happen to me since it doesn't ever actually happen. We all knew better. Unfortunately my human mate did not. Caden watched me from where he sat, he knew what I was thinking, and was thinking the same himself. We didn't know how much time I had. "Well, I for one, as Alpha, would not mind a human in our midst if she is your mate." I let a small chuckle slip out and leaned back in my chair, crossing my arms. "Is it because you're so accepting of humans, or because you insist on having me as your Beta?" Caden smirked at me, "Does it matter?"

Andrew Pennington is tired. He's been frontman for the very popular band Manderley Dreams for years, and the constant touring, the hotels, the planes, even the girls, have all started to look the same. He wants the ride to stop, just for a while, so he can relax, and maybe smell the flowers. So he buys a country estate, a place he can retreat to, for a little peace and quiet. Unfortunately, Langford, his "retreat," comes with a gardener, and a daughter, Chiara, who's opinionated, noisy, contrary, and always around, a thorn in his side girl who just rubs him the wrong way. She bugs him, you know? 🌹🌹🌹🌹 "Smoother? What the devil does that mean?" Drew could feel his hackles rising. People didn't treat him this way, especially not after they knew who he was. "You know, in photographs you're usually clean-shaven, and your clothes are less--rumply," she said. "You're all stubbly, and your shirt and trousers look like they've been folded up in a cupboard for a long time, and your hair--" "Right, right, hammered shit, I remember, you can stop," Drew interrupted, raising his hand. "Just let me use your phone to call someone, and you'll be well quit of me, yeah?" She handed over her phone wordlessly, and Drew looked at it, racking his brain for a phone number. Any number. Shit. He looked over at the girl and bit his lip. "I don't usually have to remember numbers, I just click on the name, you know?" She continued to stare at him, eyebrow raised. Drew stared at her. She was beginning to seriously annoy him. He finally looked up the number for his car service, and called them. They'd be there in two hours. Great. He looked at overalls girl, who'd gone back to her gardening. He tapped her on her shoulder and she turned around, with the flowered hat turning even wider on her head. He handed back her phone and turned to go wait in front of the house. At least his headache was abating. "You're welcome," she called, shaking her head. 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹 Cover by @n
