A Novel

She's not here to make friends. She's here to make trouble. With her piercings, tattoos and spiky blond hair, Ellen Truesdale doesn't quite fit in with the other folks in Coyote Canyon--and that's just fine with her. She's only here to put her father out of business, as payback for abandoning her when she was young. Or is she more interested in finally proving that she was worth keeping? Either way, she's struggling to keep her rival well-drilling company afloat. And being a single woman in a male-dominated field has started to take a toll. So when Hendrix Durrant steps in to help, Ellen has no choice but to let him--even though he happens to be her father's business partner and therefore her enemy. But the closer she works with him, the more she sees what she's been missing...in life and love. And once she lets go of her anger long enough to learn the truth about her past, she might just find the family she's always wanted.

Sometimes the past we leave behind leads us right where we belong. Talulah Barclay doesn't like complications. Unfortunately, they seem to love her. Fourteen years after leaving her fiancé at the altar, Talulah returns to her hometown of Coyote Canyon, Montana, to settle her great-aunt's estate. As she'd feared, her "runaway bride" reputation is waiting right where she left it, and her ex's best friend, Brant, isn't about to let her slip by unnoticed. Brant has always been a loyal friend, but Talulah's decision to run isn't the only thing he hasn't forgotten. He remembers more about Talulah than he cares to admit. Vividly. And it's increasingly difficult to ignore her now, especially when they find themselves in close quarters. Talulah has no plans to stay in town after she fixes up her aunt's Victorian farmhouse, even if the unbridled sparks with Brant give her a good reason to linger. Besides, bailing on relationships is kind of her thing. But a lot has changed since Talulah last turned tail--maybe her heart has changed, too?

A delightful enemy to lovers/fake engagement rom-com themed around Valentine's Day! Jennifer Lopez's new movie Marry Me meets Erin Sterling's holiday themed The Ex Hex.

Cupid only strikes once. At least that's what Lissette Alonso believes. Ever since the Most Disastrous Valentine's Day of All Time(tm) she has hated all things V-day. But Lizzie's best friend is having pre-nuptial festivities for a week leading up to her February 14th wedding and Lissette is taking her maid of honor duties seriously, maybe too seriously. Of course of course of course who is the first person she runs into on the way to the wedding? None other than her childhood nemesis, Brian Anderson, the reason for all of her Valentine's Day hatred.

Brian knows he messed up with Lizzie but give him a break, he was just a kid who was trying to look cool and Lizzie regularly pushed all of his buttons--both in school and out of it. He's always been gruff and grumpy, but these days, Brian is much better off with his writing; fictional characters never talk back. Unlike Lizzie who always has something to say. 

Suddenly the two are back under the same roof and bickering like old times, except that Brian has bigger problems than dealing with Lizzie's verbal sparring. Someone Brian is desperate to avoid shows up and somehow Lizzie gets roped into pretending to be dating him. And, suddenly, the simmering anger has blossomed into something extra spicy...

Heavy Paperback (2 to 4 lbs)

Is there anything hotter than a growly, overprotective Marine cradling a baby? My melted ovaries don't think so.
When you work hard and have the bank account to prove it, you're entitled to play hard. I've seen some crazy things. I've caused some crazy scenes. And there's no shame in my game.

But I'm still knocked off my stilettos when an insane chain of events leads to me inheriting a baby. The craziest part? The baby comes with a by-the-books, no-nonsense retired Marine who's so regimented that I wouldn't be surprised if he irons his boxer shorts.

Parenting? Bring it on. I don't need sleep--I once started my day with business meetings in Cairo and ended it three days later at a club in Melbourne. Changing diapers? Please. It can't be any more challenging than changing out of Spanx on the back of a moving motorcycle. Training the little guy to run the family's real estate empire? He'll be all our bosses by the time he's four.

But living with my new co-guardian? The gruff, muscled, tattooed former military man who manages to check all my boxes while trying to sneak under my skin?

He needs to go.

Because the longer he stays, the more layers he's peeling off my heart.

But love isn't something that's ever diluted my gene pool, and I like my life just fine without it. I have awesome friends, this adorable baby and an obscene amount of money. Who needs love?

Turns out...maybe me.

Crazy for Loving You is a larger-than life ride through accidental parenthood featuring a fun-loving billionaire playgirl, a crusty Marine with a gooey center, a horny dolphin, the world's most obscene pool, and all the fun you'd expect from a world built by Lucy Score, Claire Kingsley, Kathryn Nolan, and Pippa Grant.

In Kristen Proby's second novel in her Romancing Manhattan series, a playboy vows never to commit--until he meets the one woman he's tempted to break his promise for.

Quinn Cavanaugh doesn't do anything halfway. He drives fast, works hard, and plays even harder. And the word "commitment" doesn't exist in his dictionary. He has no plans of settling down with one woman for he needs to be free to move on to the next big thing--whatever or whoever that may be. Each party knows the score going into it, and it's all been working out fine. That is, until a sexy new colleague enters the scene.

Sienna Hendricks doesn't give much thought to Quinn and the revolving door leading to his bedroom. She's way too picky about who she shares her time or her body with and screwing around with a colleague isn't part of her plan either. Quinn doesn't intimidate her. And unlike most other members of her sex, she doesn't melt into a puddle at his feet whenever he's near. Most importantly, she has no issues telling him no.

But for a man who has the world at his feet, Quinn isn't accustomed to being rejected. And he's not about to let that change--no matter how persistent Sienna is. To his surprise, Sienna is everything he thought he'd never find. Pursuing her, and convincing her he's changed, is going to be the biggest challenge of his life. One he's completely up for....
