Watching Over Her
Summary
When Major VanBuren approached me with a very special and highly classified assignment, I felt honored. I'd been waiting for a chance at a covert mission. Imagine my surprise when he hit me with the details - he wanted me to befriend his 18-year-old daughter, newly arrived in town and harboring a broken heart. My new "assignment" entailed becoming a glorified babysitter and her new BFF; I thought it was as honorable as being in charge of the cafeteria - complete bullsh*t if you ask me. And then I met her... Olivia is all legs, golden hair, and she has the most captivating blue eyes I've ever seen. While my mind tells me to keep things on the up-and-up, my d*ck has other plans. What was supposed to be an easy bullsh*t mission is quickly becoming one of the most dangerous things I've ever been tasked to do.

The Brothers Next Door
Summary
After a night of epic sex, he left a thank-you note on my night-side table! Imagine my surprise on moving day when I discover my one-night stand is now my new neighbor, Nate. Last weekend, the hot NYPD officer gave me the night of my life. He looks almost as handsome in uniform as out of uniform. I wait for him to say something like "You were amazing" or "What a night". Or maybe, "Dinner? My place?" Sounds reasonable, right? After all, Nate left me hoarse from screaming his name, and aching from doing it in every position known to man. He also left me without a goodbye. Just a note. A freaking thank-you note. So, maybe I shouldn't be too surprised when he eyes me up and down and says three very different words. "Have we met?" Bastard. That's what I thought for a second. But it turns out Officer Casanova has a twin brother. Darrin. Nate didn't forget me. In fact, he has plans for me, plans that include his brother and both of them having their dirty, wicked way with me. These gorgeous, sexy, demanding men want to share me. Sounds like a girl's dream come true, right? But what if a time comes when I have to choose?
