Rhodes St. James is used to people liking him. He's the charming lawyer who always has the right words, and when he's not winning cases, he's fronting a band with his college buddies. Life is good, predictable even, until Theodore steps into the picture. Hired by the St. James family, Theo is completely unaffected by Rhodes' usual charm. Stone-faced, no-nonsense, and frustratingly immune to his playful jokes and easy smiles, Theo quickly becomes Rhodes' new project.
It's all fun and games at first-trying to make Theo laugh, teasing him until he cracks. Rhodes is determined to get under that tough exterior, convinced it's only a matter of time before Theo warms up. But the more time they spend together, the more Rhodes starts to see a different side of him. Beneath the stoic, unyielding facade is someone who's been hurt before, someone who keeps the world at a distance for a reason.
And the challenge suddenly becomes more than just getting a smile.
Rhodes wants to break through Theo's walls, not just for the fun of it, but because he's drawn to the person hiding beneath. But Theo's heart is off-limits, scarred by a past relationship that left him shattered, and he's sworn off love entirely. The closer they get, the more Rhodes realizes that this won't be as easy as he thought.
But Rhodes has never been one to give up easily...

"Noah, I won't do it unless you ask me to," he whispered, his voice seductively low. "What?" I asked almost breathless. "Kiss you," he murmured. "And God, there are no words for how badly I want to." **** Noah was your all American boy. Captain of his soccer team, extremely good-looking, having other boys want to be him and girls want to be with him, but there's one problem. He doesn't chase after the captain of the cheerleading squad or the girls who spread their legs open for whoever asks. In fact, he doesn't go for any girl. Instead, he hates himself when his eyes linger on a guy that his brain and heart say is cute. He's gay, and he's having a hard time accepting himself for it. It doesn't help when he wakes up almost naked in another guy's house, let alone in another guy's bed. And to make matters worse, he can't help but fall for the outspoken and extremely attractive Madison who he'd drunkenly went home with and tried to screw. Finally, to add the cherry on top of the crap-tastic cake, Noah is forced to work with Madison for at least six months, or he'll lose his beloved soccer. Nothing could go wrong, right? Throw in a bit of awkwardness mixed with a few close calls and you've got a recipe for disaster....and a tiny tear in Noah's heavily protected heart. © 2018 *endless thanks and love to @half_a_hetero for helping me with the Italian in this book.

Emily and Samuel ✔️
"Grandmother, what big ears you have." Chuckling at my own joke, I looked down at the wolf when I felt his tail tapping on my wrist and was met with an amused look instead of the sad one before. Taking a hint when he nudged my thigh with his snout, I guided my hands towards his snout. Placing my hand on his snout as he tilted his head up to sniff my palm, I continued, "grandmother, what big nose you have." Standing up on his four paws again, he positioned himself so that he was sitting on his hind legs with his front paws resting on my shoulders. I couldn't stop the burst of laughter that escaped me when he showed me his sharp, white fangs that gleamed under the moonlight. "But grandmother, what big mouth and teeth you have." - Wherein, teenage werewolf Samuel meets his human mate Emily who lives thousands of miles away from him.
