Hold Me Today
Summary
Rock bottom has never felt so good. At least, that's what I tell myself when I bargain with the enemy and score a renovation for my hair salon. The enemy? Nick Stamos, my best friend's older brother. He's got a body and face the Greek gods would envy, but his personality needs a major overhaul. He's surly. A rule follower. Did I mention he's seen me naked? I may have crushed on him for years, but the only place I want Nick swinging his hammer nowadays is at my salon. Except, he needs something in return...a fake girlfriend. And I'm just reckless enough to say yes. Hold Me Today is a steamy, slow-burn romance. It's the first audiobook in the highly anticipated Put A Ring On It series and can be listened to as a stand-alone.

Hat Trick
Summary
As the star forward for the Boston Blades, I've earned a reputation for no-strings attached hookups and a mean slapshot that has all the ladies purring - but it's never been the one woman I want to see all fired up and ready to score. Boston's own Ice Queen Gwen James has had my emotions all tangled up for years. I've played the games. I've sat on the sidelines. No matter her reasons, I'm done being benched. When she approaches me for a second chance, I accept on one condition: she's got to prove she's all in. No kissing. No sex. It just might kill me to keep my hands to myself, but it's time Gwen knows what it's like to beg. At the end of the day, I play to win, and I want what no other man has ever had...her heart. Contains mature themes.

Sin Bin
Summary
This bad-boy hockey player is about to meet his match.... Falling down is an accident. Staying down is a choice. Going down is a career-changer...that's the one I did. How was I supposed to know that the NHL's toughest enforcer, the Red Wings' laundry room, and one security video would be my downfall? I've spent more time in the penalty box than any other player in the NHL, but this time I really screwed up. How was I supposed to know that one night and one choice would be worse than all of my transgressions on the ice? Now, I've lost my team, my sponsors, and my publicist. For most people, it's bend or break. For me, it's melt or harden. My decision became obvious when I walked into my new PR firm, and she was sitting behind the desk. Contains mature themes.

But when the owners sell us out to Hollywood, suddenly we're not just playing for thousands of fans, we're cracking open our lives on Getting Pucked, a new reality show. They want all the dirty details, and I'd rather take a puck to the gonads than peel back the curtains on my life. Not when it could take me out of the game for good. I agree to sign the contract on one condition: They hire New England's reigning queen of media to call the shots. Holly Belliveaux Carter. The woman who drives me to insanity and turns me on with nothing but a quirk of her lips and the sound of her laugh. The only woman I've ever loved. The problem? She's my ex-wife.

Say You'll Be Mine
Summary
Laws of Engagement for dealing with an Ex: Rule #1: Don't give into temptation for a kiss just to see if they taste the same. Rule #2: No clothing removal. Seriously, don't take them off. Twelve years and too many pairs of stilettos later, Shaelyn Lawrence is back where she started: New Orleans. She's returned only to take care of her grandmother, and after that? She's out, hopefully long before she sees irresistible Brady Taylor, the boy who stomped all over her heart. But when a family member approaches her for help, there's only one person she can to turn to...and he's just as infuriatingly sexy as she remembers. Oh boy. New Orleans Detective Brady Taylor has his sights on the finish line: getting promoted to sergeant. Nothing and no one is getting in his way - except that he didn't prepare for her return, the girl who left him without a word. Resisting Shaelyn has never been his strong suit, and now all he can think about is stripping her out of her f--K-me heels and kissing the lipstick off her sassy mouth. And when she asks him for help, he's forced to decide between his career and the woman he's never stopped loving. Rule #3: Don't even think about falling in love again... Say You'll Be Mine is the first full-length novel in the NOLA Heart series, but can be listened to as a standalone. If you like quirky characters, hot cops, and steamy scenes that will have you fanning your kindle, then you're in the right place. Things are about to get hot down in the Big Easy...
