What in the actual…? Why is my baby daddy at my workplace? Up there on a dais in front of everyone and—Wait, no, he bought the damn company? So it happened years ago. A stupid one-night stand that was supposed to be a life experience, not dictate the rest of my life. But, hey, I love my twins. They’re the center of my world and what we have works. It does until their father, Jamison Dawes, suddenly decides he wants to be a present parent. My kids are ecstatic. Can’t say I feel the same.

Oh, who’s even surprised? I spilled my drink on his fancy chinos, yes. They call it an accident for a reason. Is it happenstance or fate? This guy’s new to the area. He and his boyfriend just moved in across the street from my coffee place. Well, not my coffee place, I don’t own it or anything. I just go there every day. Now Alex does too. I wasn’t in the market for a new BFF, but Alex is attentive, smart, the kind of guy any woman would want in her life. Yes, he also happens to be yummy hot. Just my luck he’s… Except it’s not true.

He's mysterious and alluring, Dominant and powerful. He keeps her grounded, And lets her fly. After a date ends in disaster, Zara Bandini is drawn into a conspiracy of dark lies and hidden motives. Bidding farewell to blissful ignorance, she must betray those who trust her to prevent evil from murdering innocent civilians. Raven guides her, shields her, and seduces her… Now Zara has to protect her heart while saving the world.

Two wrongs don’t make a right. That’s what they say. In my defense, my suggestion he adopt a fake fiancée wasn’t me volunteering for the role. I only went up there to apologize, how did I walk away engaged to the CEO? I have a coach to get me through it. A woman who knows what it is to be involved with a man in my boss’s league. Her first and most crucial piece of advice? Don’t fall for him. Easy. At least, that’s what I think until he kisses me. All we’re supposed to do is convince his ex she has no chance of winning him back.

The trip to Zairn’s island resort is exactly the breather I need. Five-star, all expenses paid, I can clear my head and focus on my true goal. I want to find the one. You know? The One. I’m not looking for him in the Bahamas. At least not until Toria signs us up for a singles program: Love In Paradise. Dates, group events, single men, single women, it’s worth a shot, right? So what the hell is he doing here? He’s not on the program, he’s just… here.

She's strong and dedicated, Committed and selfless. She needs her touchstone, But Raven's not the same. Reeling from the impact of recent tragedy, Raven isn't as focused as the Kindred need him to be. When old enemies return without showing any respect, timetables at McCormack Manor change. The danger hasn't dwindled. Only her Love has the strength and the ability to steer them through. He has to excel in his dominance or they may never survive.

Guess who showed up in my office in the middle of the night? Billionaire CEO Zachary Kintyre. No big deal. It's his building, the guy can go wherever he wants. Not newsworthy? Maybe not. Except he's naked. Stark naked. And he needs me to save his ass. That should've been it. The beginning and end of our association. Why didn't I leave it there? I swore I wouldn't succumb to his charms, but before I know it, we're spending the weekend in bed.

My girls and I do most everything together anyway, so why not go watch this Zairn Lomond guy be interviewed? Jane and Toria are into him--seriously into him. I can shake a proverbial pom-pom for their obsession. Of course, if someone has to win the round-the-world tour of Lomond’s nightclubs, it has to be me. Cool. No big deal. I can work from anywhere and who says no to free five-star travel?

A contract? It’s a good cause. Why should I say no? Does his motive really matter? I’ve never met my best friend. Is that weird? Didn’t think so. Anonymity gives me freedom to say things I’d never say to someone’s face. And then he breaks it. Yep, the arrogant jerk injects himself into my life without any word or warning. Oh, and the best part? He just happens to be the billionaire owner of the social media company I work for. That’s right, people! He’s my boss!

My new life in the city was supposed to challenge me. Little did I know that the biggest challenge I’d face was out sassing the conman, who can’t keep his hands off me. Honestly, you’d think that saving his life would’ve been enough. But, no, of course not. It’s not enough for Ryske. He won’t be happy, until he’s had all of me. Every inch. All to himself.

Who says no to five-star travel? I should have. Isn’t retrospect a b*tch? Life was so much easier before him. Going home should mean regularly scheduled programming. Except, something’s different. I just can’t figure out what.

They have to come out on top. If they don’t, she will lose the man she loves. He’s already in self-destruct mode and isn’t taking their separation easy.

Zara's existence is unrecognizable from life before Raven. Given all they've lost, the Kindred are still trying to find their rhythm. Except when an almost impossible-to-refuse bid for Game Time comes in, they have to get their shit together fast. Raven is hesitant, Swallow is sure, and Swift is right in the middle. Facts they'd always accepted as sacred are suddenly called into question. With the truth no longer certain, they have to be willing to do whatever it takes to rewrite history.

Archer wants Tag, her oldest friend, and if she can broker a deal to get him what he wants then she might be able to punish the men who attacked her colleague.

Her oldest friend, Taggert, doesn't deal well with the demise of his relationship and his empire. Angry, and out of control, he begins to lose his grip and there's only one person Nya knows who can help her hold him together.

Is a drink too much to ask? In peace. 'Cept this a-hole says I'm in his seat. The place is deserted, pick another. But he doesn't. He sits right there next to me. Up close. Smoldering as he taunts. What am I supposed to do with that? Even my snippy, cynical woman bit doesn't deter him.

Did I take a risk? Hell yeah! Was it worth it? Damn right. Who says a woman can't go get her man?
