Those Three Words - Alexis Winter Cover Art

Those Three Words

Those Three Words by Alexis Winter

I never thought getting fired from my dream job would change my life. And I certainly never imagined three little words would be my undoing . Trust me—they're not the words you're thinking. Those three delicious, toe-curling words whispered by my boss were where it all changed. When budget cuts at my local school leave me scrambling to find a job before I get evicted, I stumble upon the listing of a lifetime. How hard can being a live-in nanny for a little five year old girl be? Especially when it's double the salary and comes with a sexy, single dad. But the moment I step inside Graham Hayes multi-million dollar estate and meet the grumpy billionaire—I know I'm in way over my head. It's not just that he's quite possibly the most attractive man I've ever seen, it's the way he stares at me like it takes everything he has to keep from devouring me. The way he curls his hands into fists to avoid touching me. The way he reprimands me through gritted teeth while his lust filled eyes burn through me. The naughty things he whispers against my lips as his hands explore me. Way over my head. Caring for his daughter is a dream—even his mother loves me. Soon, I'm head over heels in this fantasy I'm living. I'm even able to ignore the cryptic threats from his house-keeper who's hellbent on getting me fired. But I'm not prepared for the world of high-powered billionaires and glitzy parties. Besides, Graham isn't like these people—he's different. At least, I think he is…until a shady character I've tried to leave in the past reappears as Graham's new business partner and I'm reminded that I don't belong in this world. Sometimes life changing news comes in the form of just three simple words. Sometimes it comes in the form of an unexpected, heart-wrenching secret and the fairytale is shattered. Sometimes, it comes in the form of the opportunity of a fresh new start. You just have to be willing to take the risk and walk away or maybe…there's three little words that can fix it all.

For the Plot - Alexis Winter Cover Art

For the Plot

For the Plot by Alexis Winter

At eighteen, Archer Blackwood broke my heart. At twenty-seven, his dad just broke my bed. It's not like I planned to fall into bed with Reece Blackwood. Not when I ran into him at a dive bar for the first time in years. Not when I sent him my résumé after torching my life in one spectacular, wine-fueled spiral. Not even when this cold, brutally handsome CEO looked at me like he wanted to ruin me. He should've sent me away. Instead, he hired me. Now I'm his assistant. He's my off-limits obsession. And every stolen glance, every breathless moment behind closed doors makes it harder to pretend we're not one misstep from disaster. He's intense. Untouchable. Twenty years older and twice as guarded. I tell myself I'm doing this for the plot. That it's just a quarter-life crisis. That I won't catch real feelings. But under that sharp suit and ruthless control is a man who watches me like he's starving. A man who kisses me like he's breaking every rule for the first time in years. A man who tells me I wreck him—and means it. I swore I'd keep things professional. But we're way past that now. What we have is messy. Addictive. Dangerous. Because when the truth comes out, it won't just blur the lines—we'll obliterate them. Is he just a plot twist in my story… or the ending I never saw coming?

Beg For It

Beg For It by Alexis Winter

You know that feeling—the one where you tell yourself it's a terrible idea but you know you're going to do it anyway? Even though you know that this man isn't just your father's best friend who's twenty years your senior…he's your new boss. I'm the good girl that's always done the right thing and yet here I am, fresh out of grad school feeling directionless in life and love. So at the suggestion of my once estranged billionaire father, I agree to an interview at his best friend's company. The moment I step into Beckham Archer's office, I recognize "Mr. Daddy Issues." The mysterious, older man I shamelessly flirted with only a few nights ago…the same man who left my number in a crumpled ball on the bar top before disappearing. The power he possesses drives me absolutely wild, making me want to cross the boundaries he demanded we put into place. Soon, I'm kneeling before him as he shows me all the ways a man should please me. Dominating me. Controlling me. Allowing me how to let go under his command but with one caveat...he's not my happily ever after. "I won't cuddle you or hold you or kiss you good night. All I can offer you is a fantasy." But no amount of warnings that he's the wicked man who will break my heart can scare me away. No amount of reminders that he's old enough to be my father can deter me from wanting him. I realize there's more to this man than a billion dollar empire and a wall around his heart. He listens to me, offering to mentor me and providing me the guidance I lacked in my childhood. As hard as I try to keep my heart out of it, the harder I fall. I want more than the fantasy...I want it all, even at the risk of losing everything. But our little secret doesn't stay quiet for long and soon, my father finding out is the least of my worries…it's the secret that Beckham's been hiding from me. One thing I've learned about Beckham Archer—he's the type of man that doesn't wait for people to do something; if he wants it, he makes it happen. The type of man that has me wanting to break all the rules. The type of man that can make me beg for it. Beg For It is a STEAMY standalone romance complete with a happily ever after and no cheating. Trust me, this man can make any woman...beg for it.

I'm not Mr. Settle-Down-and-Start-a-Family. I tried it, failed it, lived the scars of it. When you find your wife tangled in the sheets with your best friend, that kind of betrayal changes a man. So I chose isolation, retreating to the mountains where solitude became my sanctuary.

Then, Quinn Prescott moved into my downstairs rental, and my carefully constructed world began to crack. Her disarming smile and endless questions threatened to unravel years of meticulously built defenses. Those innocent doe eyes hid secrets as deep as my own, and despite every instinct screaming at me to keep my distance, I found myself craving just one taste of her sweetness. But one taste wasn't enough. It became an all-consuming need to claim her, to make her mine. Each touch was an addiction, every kiss ignited something I couldn't control. Just as I began to believe I could risk opening my heart again, my past came thundering back, reminding me exactly why I'd lived by my rules for so long. Only it was too late. Quinn was carrying a secret of her own. They say the past has a way of catching up with you. What they don't tell you is that sometimes it collides with your present, leaving you to choose between the safety of solitude and the risk of everything you never knew you wanted.
