Liam is living the dream. His senior year at college, and he's the big man on campus, the quarterback for the football team. Rumored to be drafted to the big leagues he's focused and determined. Eat, sleep, and breath football. Then he meets his little sister's roommate, and suddenly football is no longer his only focus.

My life is a hot mess. Single, working, and raising two daughters, it's a miracle I get us up, dressed, and fed every morning. Forget about dating-nobody's got time for that. Even if love hadn't left me jaded, I'm not settling for anything less than perfect this time around. Lucky for me, the perfect man just happens to work in my office. But there's just one small problem: he's my boss, and is totally off limits. But hey, if it's meant to be, it'll find a way, right?

Maybe blurting out my imaginary relationship status to my nagging mother wasn't the best idea. Declaring that I'm dating my boss's brother-in-law, well, that was just wishful thinking. To my embarrassment, they both overheard me. But Merrick not only offers to be my plus one, he agrees to fake date me for the next couple of months leading up to my sister's wedding. The more time we spend together, the harder it becomes to deny that every look, every touch, is making him more a part of my life than I'm prepared for.

From the moment I see her, I'm hooked. One thing's for sure, I can't stay away from the new kindergarten teacher with the kind smile and secrets in her brown eyes. There's no hiding in a small town, and she's suddenly everywhere. My family loves her, my niece won't stop talking about her, and I just want to make her mine. Crosby is everything I didn't know I was looking for, but the wall she keeps up makes it impossible to love her the way I want to. I have to figure out how to tear it down, and fast.

He is my patient, my subject. The gorgeous cyborg who has fought so hard to regain the memories taken from him recalls most of his life, except his childhood. We journey to the village of his youth to be reunited with his family. The journey brings us closer, blurring lines I swore I would never cross. But Craal's resurfaced memories don't match what we find at his village, and I can't escape a sick feeling that we were not supposed to come here.

Savannah (Savvy) Colter is not easily overwhelmed, which is a good thing, since she is the sheriff of Edwards County. It's rare to find someone her age—a woman to boot—carrying such responsibility, but over the years, Savvy has more than proven herself worthy of the position… to most. However, when in a matter of a few weeks an old flame resurfaces in Silence, and two particularly violent murders land on her desk, her steady and predictable life becomes a little much to handle.

Overhearing my cousin's best friend confessing that she's never been satisfied wasn't my fault . . . but offering to help her change that definitely was. Her brother is a friend of mine, and while this has a bad idea written all over it, it doesn't stop us from becoming friends . . . with benefits. Palmer is gorgeous, off-limits, and stubborn as hell. For the first time, I'm the one left wanting more. I'm tired of watching her walk away. I'm ready for her to stay.

Abducted off the space station where I teach the standard galactic language, I'm imprisoned with two other women in a cold, dirty cell on an alien ship. We're destined for something worse than death until a fierce, blue-haired alien male rescues us. We recover on his ship with his group of Heveian pirates. There, the attraction that formed when he first carried me in his arms grows into a force neither of us can deny. But something else has taken up residence on the ship. Something that will stop at nothing to destroy us all.

Jorok saved my life after being trapped in a filthy cell. He's gorgeous and way too serious for his own good. To get to know him better, I tag along on an errand, but we're kidnapped and forced to nurse an alien captain's sick crew. To avoid being sold, I pretend to be Jorok's mate (which isn't difficult). I thought things couldn't get worse from there. I was wrong.

Sterling is the perfect guy—handsome, with a heart of gold and a protective streak. I know he'll do anything for me...except maybe admit he feels the same way I do. So, I'm stuck in limbo and am in love with my best friend. Just when I work up the nerve to finally tell him how I feel, everything changes with a confession and two words: stay tonight.

What's worse than waking up from a hibernation cell fifty-two years after being abducted? Nothing. No, wait—a wise-cracking alien hunk with a killer smile who doesn't let me out of his sight, that's what. Wulfrex knows every inch of his massive space cruiser and makes it impossible for me to steal it. When I try to "borrow" one of his shuttles to get home to Earth, I find myself outsmarted by him again and accidentally pulled into a mission with far-reaching implications I could never have foreseen.

He's my boss on this ship, but not the boss of me. At least that's what I tell myself every time the gorgeous, icy-eyed—and hearted—Heveian warrior speaks to me. Or rather, growls at me. Despite his clear dislike of me, I have the dirtiest thoughts about the big guy. When he receives an invitation to visit an alien warlord's fancy space lair, he shocks me by asking me to come with him, posing as his mate. How can I refuse?

Aiden is lusting after his best friend's little sister. With the blink of an eye, she's all grown up, and suddenly everything he never knew he wanted. No amount of football or distraction can keep him from thinking about her. Over the last year, she's become an essential part of his life. He wants her, even though he knows he shouldn't.

I didn't plan on kissing my best friend's twin sister . . . or falling for her. But it happened all the same. It's always been Riley, but after I finally get the chance to taste her lips, she ghosts me. Not exactly the response I was hoping for. Getting out of town for a while, and giving her space, seemed like the best thing for us both. Until the night before my year overseas, and she ended up in my bed. I thought leaving her was the hardest thing I've ever experienced, but returning home to find her with a newborn and knowing she's moved on is a sucker punch to the gut.

When I quit my job, my boss threatened that I'd never work as a lawyer again . . . I figured he was a fossil with an elevated sense of self-importance, but two months later, I have to admit he has reach. Only one firm is interested in giving me a job, and there's been a slight misunderstanding. One of the partners saw me with my best friend's sister, Ruthie, and her daughter, and now they think I'm a family man. To my mind, wedding bells only lead to misery, but it seems to be the only reason they want to hire me. So I play along.

I've always had a thing for my best friend's older brother. In fact, I've been planning our wedding since elementary school. Then I grew up, moved away, and studying, and law school became my only focus. Now that I'm back, the sexy cowboy is everywhere I turn. I shouldn't mind so much as Rip Callahan is all levels of fine. My problem? His presence . . . his attention is sending me in a spin. And our reconnection? It's fast and intense and everything I've ever dreamed of. So why am I getting in my own way?

My whole world has revolved around caring for my baby girl. I never wanted to let anyone into my life—into our life—until Kennedy came to town and threw a wrench into my single-dad routine. She's the first woman to make me feel something . . . anything, in a long time. If only she would let me in. Kennedy is kind, beautiful, and everything I never knew that I wanted. She looks at me as if I'm her entire world, and her bond with my daughter is something to see. But there's a problem: she's leaving in a few weeks, and I need to find a way to ask her to stay.

Scarlett Hatfield is the kind of girl who can't be tamed. Her adventurous spirit is contagious, but a blue-collar man like me doesn't chase dreams. I build them from the ground up. And my home is in Willow River. I can see myself building a life with the gorgeous redhead who's turning my world upside down, but that means clipping her wings. And I could never do that, not when she's meant for more than my small-town life. Even if it means destroying my heart, when the time comes, I'll have to say goodbye and let her stay wild.

Getting pregnant in college wasn't part of the plan, but I'll never regret giving birth to the best part of me. A fresh start in a small town seems like a good idea, until a handsome stranger shows me a little kindness and has me feeling things, I thought I'd never feel again . . . things I have no business feeling about a man I just met. Every time I turn around, Maverick is there. I'm doing my best to hold it all together, but the truth is, when I see him with my daughter, I know I've already fallen too far.

Two years of silence and no goodbye—she slipped away and through my fingers, leaving me with nothing but questions . . . and a heavy heart from missing her. I know what we had was real, that our love was once in a lifetime. Now she's back from her Parisian fashion internship, and I'm ready for answers, desperate to understand why she couldn't just stay.
