Austin Tanner is ready to settle down and marry, but as the bounty hunter works his last case, he receives an unexpected surprise when a woman who is bent on revenge takes him prisoner. Strange, how this little slip of a woman would make him forget that he'd order a mail-order bride and would be married soon.

Eleanor Lawson wants her father's murder solved, and she'll do anything she has to... even forcing the bounty hunter who had worked the case to find the killer. She hadn't planned on being attracted to Austin, and she especially didn't except to have so much fun while working with him to track down the criminal.All Rights Reserved

The Player Next Door. by that1withblackhair

Riley Brown. The name sends chills down the spines of her classmates. But that doesn't mean she's evil, in fact, she's very fun and brave behind that mask of hers. She's one of the most popular people in her high-school, with a few of her guy-friends. Austin Miller. The name makes every girl sigh dreamily- but not Riley. He is the biggest player you could ever meet, and probably the hottest. So what will happen if the rebel and the player meet? Everyone else thought of World War III. But they were wrong. Sort of. P.S. this story originally started out as some sort of parody for the "nerd-dates-badboy" but it spiraled into something else at some point- look, honestly, it is something that cannot be explained.
