Griffin - Samantha Skye Cover Art

Griffin

Griffin by Samantha Skye

I came to Whispers to start over. Just me, my baby, and a bakery that smells like second chances. No more judgmental glances. No more family who treated me like a stain they couldn't scrub out. Just flour, sugar, and the quiet hope that I can build a life worth living. I didn't expect to meet Griffin. Grumpy, gorgeous, and maddeningly closed off, he's the town's most elusive billionaire and the man who built homes for the rich but never made one for himself. He sees me. Not just the bump or the baggage, but the woman underneath. And when he looks at me like I'm the only thing that's ever made sense, I forget how to breathe. But trust isn't something I can afford. My past has taught me to be wary of everyone. Even if the grumpy builder says he's ready to fight for something real.  I just hope he knows what it costs.

When He Lies by Cynthia Eden

Their paths collide on a mission. He’s working undercover. So is she. But they are on two very different sides of the law. A top operative at the CIA, Ryan Quinn is used to hunting down the worst of the worst. Manipulation is the game. And he is exceptionally good at the game. His latest case involves him playing the role of a wealthy and bored businessman as he sneaks into the inner circle of some very dangerous individuals. The tool he uses to get into that circle? The lovely and innocent Simone Sailor. Fun fact…She’s using  him . Men always underestimate her…Too bad. That’s their mistake. Simone has a job to do, and nothing will stop her from achieving her goal. She has some trinkets to retrieve for a very upset family.  Retrieval specialist– yep, that’s her .  She thinks that title sounds so much better than say…thief. So she lies, she pretends, and she gets the job done.  One hundred percent success rate . Playing innocent and fooling her marks?  Please . That’s something that she can do in her sleep. Except this time, she finds herself getting a little too close to one of her targets…the gorgeous and seemingly clueless Ryan. A bored but way too sexy billionaire. A man who has a touch that sends wildfire racing through her veins. She’s distracted during her heist.  He  distracts her, and she gets caught in the act of  retrieving  property. And death is the punishment. For her…and for Ryan. Uh, oh. Simone  may  have underestimated the danger in her latest job. When she and Ryan are suddenly kidnapped, she realizes that, for the first time in her life, she could seriously use a hero…and turns out, Ryan is not the useless rich boy that she assumed. He’s smart, he’s incredibly dangerous…and Ryan just killed someone without blinking in order to save her life. Oh, and also…he’s saying that she’s under arrest. That he has to keep her close, twenty-four, seven, and that there is now an exceedingly large bounty on her head. She’s his prisoner. His leverage. And…his absolute obsession. Simone is not innocent. She is not sweet. She  is  going to drive Ryan absolutely and utterly insane. He crossed lines with her–so many complicated lines. He’s killed for her, and he will do whatever it takes to keep her  alive.  She’s now a very important witness, and the CIA intends to leverage her knowledge of the international crime world. But…Ryan just wants  her.  And the longer they are together, the hotter the desire between them blazes. But liars aren’t supposed to fall in love. Too bad because Ryan is pretty sure that he’s falling hard for gorgeous Simone. Now, if he can just keep her alive, if he can capture all the bad guys who want her dead, and if he can prove to her that, for the first time in her life, she’s finally found someone that she can truly trust…then maybe this spy will have a chance at a happy ending with the pretty thief who may have stolen his heart. Author’s note: Simone never thought that she’d need a protector, but now, her life is on the line, and a  good guy  is the only one who can keep her alive. On the run, thrown together in close confines and chaos, with their enemies fast on their trail…she has no choice but to rely on Ryan. As for Ryan, he’s about to prove to Simone that this  good guy  knows all about playing dirty, fighting hard, and burning down the world in order to protect the woman who was meant to be his.

Playing with a Scandal

Playing with a Scandal A spicy enemies to lovers bodyguard romance by Erika Wilde

She was the last woman I should have wanted. And the only woman I couldn’t let go. Two years ago, Charlotte Massey destroyed my life and career with a single story. I rebuilt myself from the wreckage—harder, colder, and closed off to everything but work. Then I was handed a protection assignment, and I opened the file to find her face staring back at me. The woman I’d once trusted. The woman I’d once taken to The Players Club and lost myself inside. The woman who ruined me, in more ways than one. Now she was my client. An investigative reporter who’d gotten too close to a powerful and dangerous businessman and now had a target on her back to prove it. Every instinct told me to let someone else handle her case, but the moment I saw her again—defiant, fearless, and impossibly beautiful—the anger flooding my veins mixed with something far more dangerous. Desire. Raw, consuming, and completely inconvenient. I still craved her, and I’d destroy anyone who tried to hurt her. Forced into close proximity in a remote safe house, the tension between us became unbearable as we fought an attraction that refused to die. Her stubbornness infuriated me. Her vulnerability broke through defenses I thought were impenetrable. And somewhere between guarding her body and guarding my heart, the lines completely blurred. When the enemy abducted her, I shattered every law to bring her home. What we uncovered along the way exposed a criminal empire, devastating corruption, and a family betrayal that nearly destroyed me all over again, making me realize that the woman I blamed for my downfall might be the only one capable of saving me. Playing with a Scandal is a high-heat bodyguard romance filled with second-chance tension, dominant protector energy, emotional scars, and a man who would burn down a criminal empire before he let the woman he loves slip though his fingers again.

Honor Bound by Sandra Brown

“My name is Lucas Greywolf.” A raspy voice, as soft and sandy as the wind that blew across the desert, spoke directly into her ear. It was a gentle sound, but Aislinn wasn’t deceived. Like the winds it reminded her of, it could be whipped into a fury. . . Aislinn Andrews knows his name because his escape from prison has prompted a statewide manhunt. As lean and menacing as a panther, the fugitive invades her house, her bed, and then takes her as his hostage. Overnight, Aislinn’s safe and predictable life is upended by a man considered criminal and dangerous. However, his greatest threat to Aislinn isn’t the knife he wields, but his untame appeal. All his life, Lucas Greywolf has harbored a bitter grudge against Anglos, resenting even that half of his heritage. Years spent in prison for a crime he didn’t commit hasn’t quelled his fighting spirit, but only fanned it. After escaping, he comes face-to-face with blond, blue-eyed Aislinn Andrews, the epitome of everything he hates. Yet he must have her. Now the war Lucas wages is personal, and his fiercest enemy is his longing for the wrong woman. Two people. Two worlds. One shared moment of incandescent passion…when nothing else mattered. But can that unifying instant withstand everything that divides them, when the largest obstacle they face is the most difficult to overcome? Pride.
