Bedding the Billionaire Series
Summary
From USA Today best-selling author Laura Lee comes three sexy enemies-to-lovers stories about arrogant, bossy billionaires and the feisty women in their lives. Public Relations It can't get much worse than finding your fiancé banging his secretary over the back of your couch, right? Wrong. Try discovering your unforgettable, dirty-talking, arrogant as f*ck one-night stand is your new boss. The same man that you hate with a fiery passion, but your traitorous body refuses to read the memo. I'll admit, Liam Maxwell's cockiness is not unwarranted - in the bedroom or the boardroom - but I'm a professional. I refuse to let an inconvenient attraction affect my career. I'll just have to do what I do best: manage the situation objectively. Why do I get the feeling that's going to be much easier said than done? Sweet Temptations Forget about those other celebrity chefs. Or, as I like to call them... Amateurs. Nobody can perfect a pastry like yours truly. People come from all over the world to taste my delectable treats. Women practically throw themselves at me, begging for a chance to suck the cream out of my éclair. I'm handsome, I'm wealthy, and I'm talented. All in all, life is pretty sweet. At least, it was...until a beautiful Latina walked into my life and lit my whole damn world on fire. They say all is fair in love and war. Well, Gabriela Martinez may not know it yet, but she and I are definitely at war. Billionaire Bosshole bosshole ('b?s - 'hol) - noun A person who turns into a massive jerk 10 seconds after being made supervisor. An employer completely devoid of empathy or concern for anyone else. A manager with whom you often disagree. Also see: jerk boss, a$$hole, egomaniac Do you know the one thing you should never do at work? Your boss. Sadly, following that particular piece of advice is much easier said than done. Ronan Maxwell is hands-down the sexiest man I've ever met. He's also the pushiest, most demanding, and most arrogant S.O.B. on the planet. And even though I can't stand him, I never stop wondering how his ridiculously pretty mouth would feel against my skin. Or whether or not that bulge in his pants is as impressive as it seems. For two years, I had it under control. But then, one late night, all that changed. Now that I know firsthand how electrifying his touch can be, I want him more than ever. And the longer we continue this twisted relationship, the softer my heart gets. I have no idea what the future holds, but one thing I know for sure - this man has the power to break my heart. And that's one thing I can never let happen. Note: Public Relations and Sweet Temptations are novellas. Billionaire Bosshole is a full-length novel. Each installment can be listened to as a stand-alone.

SSS: Year One
Summary
When being different leads to the best years of your life.
There are three key components required to get into the most prestigious, top spy academy in the world:
Skills
Strength
Survival
My name is Silver Spell Solange. No, I didn't plan for my initials to be the same rank needed to enter the spy academy. But I would do anything to get into the one of a kind school. I have the magical capability of an Elemental Witch, the strength to kick anyone's ass, and quick problem-solving skills to get my teammates out of any jam. There’s only one small problem - the other "S" I’m missing.
I'm not a part of the supernatural race.
After realizing that my only shot at my dreams is at the brink of extinction, I'm unexpectedly teamed up with a werewolf, a dragon, a fallen angel, and a hellhound. The four of them carry the assets and abilities I need to gain my spot into the Supernatural Spy Academy (SSS).
With the clock ticking and not much leg room for an SS score, I accept their bet, knowing I’ll easily handle whatever they request from me.
I didn't think their bet would lead me to date all four them.
It's time for me to buckle up. This four-year roller coaster is about to begin, and its a bumpy one-way ticket to becoming the next "supernatural" spy.

Licking His Cane
Summary
Keeping candy in production takes priority during the holidays as she spends time getting some sugar. Blitzen enjoys fixing things, and the machines that make Christmas sweeter need attention, too. As Belinda Litzen, she is a one-woman repair shop catering to all the overworked bakeries in town. When a candy shop has a rolling machine down, she shows up to save the day and meets a candy maker who gives her a visual sugar rush. Rex has been waiting for his reindeer to show up, but the repairwoman was not what he had imagined. Instead of brown, she was golden, and instead of shy, she met his gaze head-on. She is his first reindeer, and he is her first wolf. Excerpt: Blitzen wrapped her arms around herself and looked to Ru. “I have never been alone.” Blitzen frowned and shivered. “Are you sure you want to do this? I think that the others can have the desired effect.” Ru looked concerned. “No. I think that I will stick with the original plan. It won’t hurt me to be out in the world for a while, and you know I do love all things mechanical. It will be good for me. I think.” Ru put her hand on Blitzen’s shoulder. “I will miss you.” “I will be home soon. The sooner that I leave, the sooner I will be on my way back here.” Ru chuckled. “You can leave and enjoy yourself. There is no harm in it.” “I have never really given enjoyment a try.” Ru rolled her eyes. “I know. You started life as a Quaker, and the simple life has never really left you.” “You know how terrifying this place was when I first arrived.” Ru stroked her cheek. “I remember, but this time, the magic is giving you the knowledge that you need. You won’t be pulled out of your time again. If you trust me that this is for the best, I promise you won’t regret it.” Blitzen nodded and took her folded envelope from her pocket. “Here is the letter. I hope it does some good.” Ru took it and tucked it into her pocket. “It will. I have a plan for it.” Blitzen smiled with amusement at the grim grin that Ru was giving her. “Santa is not going to like it, is he?” “Men rarely like to be slapped in the face with the obvious.” “Will it slap him?” “It is going to knock him backward. Now, if you are ready?” “I am ready.” Ru unfastened Blitzen’s collar, and the air rushed in and caressed her neck for the first time in centuries. There was a moment of panic, and then, Ru handed her the snowflake. Without hesitation, Blitzen hugged her friend and then pressed the snowflake to her naked neck. Moments later, a swirl of snow and magic swept her up, and Belinda Litzen prepared to start her day.
