CONTEMPORARY FICTION

Briar Thornton has spent months outrunning her past, but when she's drawn to the small Montana town of Bane Falls with the death of her late uncle and his estate to handle, she runs straight into a new nightmare- and a man more dangerous than the one who tried to kill her.

Roman Syxx isn't a saviour. He's a weapon - cold, precise, and programmed by the Dark Forces to destroy anything and anyone. As the lieutenant of the covert Icarus Squad, he's in Bane Falls on orders: infiltrate, eliminate, disappear. But the new girl that randomly shows up in the small town fractures his control in ways no enemy ever could.

Featuring a gorgeous new design with sprayed edges, a bonus chapter and a short story, this is the definitive way to read and own this beautiful romance novel inspired by the songs of Taylor Swift.

When Meredith Fox lost her sister, Claire, eighteen months ago, she shut everyone out. But this summer, she’s determined to join the world again.

The annual family vacation to Martha’s Vineyard seems like the perfect place to reconnect. Her entire extended family is gathering for a big summer wedding, and although Meredith is dateless after being unexpectedly dumped, she’s excited to participate in the traditional Fox family game of Assassin that will take place during the week of wedding festivities. Claire always loved the game, and Meredith is determined to honour her legacy.

Nell Gallows is the sole survivor of an elite dark forces squad, Riøt, after a devastating attack two years ago. Unsurprisingly, she's being put up as the top candidate for the special ops team: Malum. The squad that goes where no one else will or can. There's only one problem: Malum blames their one casualty from the Patagonia mission on the Riøt squad.

So what is she to do when she finds herself on a plane to California and on her way to a sure death sentence? A one-night stand. At least, that's all it was supposed to be – one last night to be free. Only, she finds out too late that the dark and mysterious man she solely wanted as a fling is not only her new comrade but also the one she dreaded meeting most – her immediate superior and untouchable devil in the field: Bones.

Twelve years ago, she left Thornchapel – and the two boys she gave her heart to – behind.

Now, Proserpina Markham has returned, hopeful…and wary. Because it’s so very easy to be drawn back into the world of the seductive and elegant Auden Guest…and into the world of his worst enemy, St. Sebastian Martinez.

The beautiful and brooding St. Sebastian is as irresistible as he ever was, and Auden is just as handsome and arrogant, and the three of them can’t seem to unknot themselves from each other – or from the hasty promise they three made all those years ago.

It would take a saint to resist Elijah Iverson.

Aiden was the last person in the world anyone expected to become a monk. But the decision to become a monk saved his life, and he's determined to do it right, even if it's taken him from his millionaire party-boy lifestyle...and the love of his life, Elijah Iverson. Four-plus years haven't made letting Elijah go any easier, but at least Aiden hasn't had to come face-to-face with those whiskey eyes and soft mouth since he left. That is, until Elijah shows up on his doorstep, assigned to accompany Aiden on a European monastery road trip for an article he's writing.

The pull is still there between them, but Aiden knows he can't have Elijah back. He broke his heart when he left, and now Elijah's engaged to someone else. Aiden chose God. He chose his vows. Except, between whispered confessions and stolen kisses and moments bent over an ancient altar, those vows are feeling flimsier by the day. Vows or not, it would take a saint to resist Elijah...and Aiden's sure as hell no saint.

He leads a life of sin, and she's committed to a life of virtue.

Sean Bell is not a good man, and he's never pretended to be. He doesn't believe in goodness, God, or any happy ending that isn't paid for in advance. There are words for men like him: playboy. Womanizer. Skirt-chaser. Sinner. When he meets a gorgeous college girl at a fundraiser, he has no problem telling her exactly what filthy things he wants to do to her-until he realizes she's his best friend's little sister, Zenobia "Zenny" Iverson, all grown up. Worse than that...she's also about to become a nun.

Zenny, though, isn't looking to play it safe during her final month of freedom. She wants to make sure choosing God is the right path, and to do that, she propositions Sean to show her every carnal temptation she's leaving behind. Unable to refuse, Sean finds himself falling for her, body and soul, and questioning not just the morals he's dodged for years, but his relationship with the God Zenny has pledged herself to.

He's a priest, and here is his confession.

There are many rules a priest can't break. A priest cannot marry. A priest cannot abandon his flock. A priest cannot forsake his God. Tyler Bell has had no problem playing by the rules for the last three years after a family tragedy set him on the path to priesthood. That all changes when the delicious, sultry voice of Poppy Danforth sinks its claws in him through the screen of his confessional booth, and he can't get her sins out of his head.

It should be easy to put his impure thoughts of her to rest, considering the vows Tyler has taken. It should be nothing to overcome what the sight and sound of her does to him, when his life with the Church means everything. But once he has his first forbidden taste of those red lips, Tyler can't help but break all his rules for Poppy-no matter what it might cost them both.
