A ranch. No wife, no kids, no dates. He's had his eye on the pretty owner of the Ugly Stick Saloon, but their one accidental encounter was interrupted before he could get her out of her take-me-now red cowboy boots.
Audrey Anderson isn't in the market for a man. Been there, done that, has the scars to prove it.

When she winds up one stripper short for a private party, she's forced to slip on a mask and into the role of the mysterious Kiki. Jackson didn't want the birthday bash his twin brothers are throwing him, but his vow to ignore the rented stripper goes awry when she shows him exactly how far she's willing to go–for all three of them. Audrey can't forget the sizzling heat between her and one sexy Kiowa in particular. Jackson.

It doesn't get much more real than a mission to dig survivors out of what's left of Erie, PA, after a mysterious earthquake. A trembler that powerful is as out of place as Jo feels as the de-facto leader of the troupe. Not to mention the soul-shaking feelings she has for Hunter, a team member whose past as an Agency Guardian casts a heavy shadow over any possible relationship. It seems one of the supers, an earth-warper named Ground Pounder, has gone rogue, using his freedom from the Agency's brand of virtual slavery to put the "villain" back in supervillain. Failure to find him before any more innocent bystanders are hurt means the team could be back under the Agency's thumb. It's a burden that doesn't rest easy on Jo's shoulders…especially when the man who's invaded her heart is caught in the crossfire.

The wealth that comes from smuggling supplies to those shunned as summoner-born or demon-touched doesn't hurt, either.
The man she meets to arrange one of those under-the-table hauls is complicated…and handsome as hell. Literally. A glimpse of the predator beneath his silver gaze and she's tempted to break her cardinal rule: never mix business with pleasure. Zel's first look at the wild-haired hauler threatens to distract him from his mission–and reminds him just how long it's been since he got laid. As the leader of an outcast settlement, he can't afford to trust too easily. Devi's got a reputation for running a tight, disciplined crew, but her very willingness to deal with him means she has something to hide. Not to mention a hot, tempting package like her could be the cleverest trap his enemies have ever set. Product Warnings: Contains demon bars, virtual (and literal) fights to the death, forbidden love, renegade AIs, a badass truck-driving heroine who will do anything to protect her crew and the half-demon warrior who will move heaven and hell to make her his.

Her true identity known only by her faithful servant woman, Taqla is content with the comfortable, if restrictive, life that keeps her safe from the control of any man. Until she lays eyes on a handsome merchant-traveler. Suddenly her magical disguise doesn't rest so easily on her shoulders.
When long-time widower, Rafiq, hears that the Amir's beautiful daughter has been kidnapped by a scheming djinni–and that she will be given in marriage to her rescuer–he seeks the help of "Umar the Wise" to ensure he will be that man. Yet as he and the disguised Taqla set off, he senses that his prickly male companion is hiding something. In a moment of dire peril, all of Taqla's secrets are stripped bare–her fears, her sorcery and, worst of all, her love for Rafiq. Yet the princess's life hangs in the balance, and there is no running away or turning back. Even though passion may yet betray them all… Product Warnings: Scary monsters and creepy ruins in the desert–check. Pagan gods that demand blood-sacrifices–double check. A handsome hero who looks good in a robe and even better out of it–oh yeah. Check, check and check. That's worth a heroine dropping a veil or two. Read an excerpt and BUY at Samhain!

	Stowaway by Becky Barker Genre: Romantic Suspense Length: Novel, ISBN: 978-1-60928-684-2 Price: $5.50 Limited time sale-priced for $3.85 He's handsome, hot, hunted and hurt…a plea for help from this detective is one her heart can't refuse. Keri Merritt desperately needs her long-overdue vacation, preferably as far as she can get from anyone with a badge. It's not that she doesn't respect those modern knights, but between her job as a trauma nurse and her overprotective law enforcement family, she's overrun. When she finds something in the back of her truck she definitely didn't pack, all hope of a peaceful break from reality burns away in the heat of a dark, fevered gaze. Behind those chocolate eyes lies everything she wants to avoid.
Nick Lamanto is in trouble. He's tracked the mastermind of a gunrunning operation from Florida to Tennessee, only to wind up with an attempted murder warrant hanging over his head, a bullet in his arm and no one he can trust. Except the sheriff's petite, strong-willed daughter, whose jittery finger is on the trigger of the .45 pointed between his eyes. Lucky for Nick, Keri's healing instinct kicks in. And so does a powerful attraction sharper than the needle with which she stitches him. As the threads of his investigation connect with unanswered questions about Keri's past, keeping her safe matters more to him than his next breath. Even if it's his last… Product Warnings: If you have a weakness for dark-haired, dark-eyed law enforcement officers with strong protective instincts, prepare to lose your heart.

A man who almost died because of her.
Trevor Masters can call off his search for the woman he loves. The woman he dreamt of while comatose. The quest for her heart, however, is only beginning. The trick will be convincing her he doesn't blame her–and that she deserves to accept herself as the woman who holds his heart. Business negotiations land Lori in a heavenly hell.

He's a good guy, a "white hat" hacker for hire. He's also more teched out than the Bionic Man, though his ailing 'ware creates as many problems as it solves.
His latest series of break-ins are proving…difficult. Sentinel Tech's security is cutting -edge, and the cops are hounding his ass. He sees only one reason why his employer hasn't called off the dogs: someone inside is stealing data for real and setting him up to take the fall.

So does the attraction that makes him reluctant to turn Cyke in. Every time they touch, barriers fall. Before long, they're both laid bare. Cyke can handle losing blood, even losing consciousness.

The season for mistletoe, Christmas lights…and a killing spree. When Secret's friend, Detective Mercedes Castilla, asks for help to solve a series of murders longer than a string of lights, Secret resigns herself to the fact her holidays will be anything but peaceful.
It seems someone is killing New Yorkers in an unusually gruesome way, and as the bodies pile up faster than presents under the tree, the police are no closer to finding the killer than Secret is to finding the perfect present for one of her boyfriends, Lucas. Tracking down a monster in Manhattan the week before Christmas is almost as difficult as shopping for her ever-expanding collection of loved ones. When tragedy strikes close to home, Secret must do everything in her power to put an end to the horror in time for Santa to come down the chimney. Product Warnings: Contains a less than merry McQueen with a sword and a reason to use it; a festive new use for mistletoe; and a promise that will haunt Secret like the Ghost of Christmas Future.

Her determination to put the "Merry" in Merry Christmas only serves as a painful reminder of everything he's unable to provide for her. Nia loves her husband to distraction, and she can't for the life of her figure out how someone so smart can be so dumb when it comes to something as simple as a little holiday. Christmas is so much more than presents and shopping malls. All she has to do is show her own personal Scrooge that the best gifts come from the heart.

Perpetual good girl Lacey McGuire has two Christmas wish lists. One suitable for public consumption…and a private one that's too hot to handle. Right at the top: wild, wicked fantasies about her best buddies and business partners Ryan Hollister and Bram Colton. Besides the fact they're both poster boys for Hunks 'R' Us, they've been there for her through thick, thin and the heartbreak of a cheating fiancé. So what if her boys will never know they star in her sexiest daydreams? In her fantasy world, her heart will never get trampled again.
Ry and Bram are pretty sure Lacey never meant to email a list of some of her raunchiest wants. Particularly the one that tightens their shorts–she wants a threesome. With them. Although they've loved her for years, they made a pact to keep Lacey off limits in order to protect their friendship. Now all bets are off. And the quest to give her all she wants–and more–is on.

After all, her chances of avoiding the genetic-testing lotto are better than her chances of surviving topside.
The bastard son of a terrifying incubus, lust heats Gabe's blood and sex fuels his magic. Innate charm and charisma help him navigate the cultural gap between the outcast town he calls home and the human settlements he infiltrates for trade. His latest mission nets him an unexpected asset–a summoner strong enough to soothe his darkest needs. Trust a half demon, especially one who uses a lockdown to trap them together? Not in this lifetime. Yet Marci can't resist Gabe's offer to see her safely to a selective outcast settlement where she can live without fear.

While visiting her sister in New Zealand, however, she's happy to indulge in some hot holiday sex with kind, hunky firefighter Neon Carter. After all, they live on opposite sides of the world. There's no chance things will turn serious.
Neon Carter is a catch. At least, that's what the ladies apparently think. All they seem to want is a quick trip down the aisle, but Neon's in no rush to settle down. Light-hearted summer loving with a sexy blonde is something different, though, and Neon's happy to offer his services until Merle has to return to England. The weather's hot, the sex even hotter. But when it's time for Merle to go home, they both realize they're in deeper than they thought. And there's no solution that won't break someone's heart.

Style. And more than a little groveling…* Petal, Georgia, Book 1 Seven years ago, Lily Travis was only too glad to see her hometown of Petal, Georgia, in her rearview mirror. Thanks to her father running off with a twenty-year-old, though, here she is, trying to pick up the pieces. First order of business: meet with her brother's teacher in a quest to pull his grades out of a downward spiral.
Nathan Murphy is pretty much resigned to his bachelor status–until he looks up from his desk to see an all-grown-up Lily walking into his classroom. Of all the women who turned out to be totally wrong for him, she's the only one who felt right. At least until his foolish, immature mistake drove her away. Lily has to admit that time has been more than kind to gorgeous, sexy Nathan. Except there's no room on her full plate for another complication. Especially with a man who broke her heart once before. With a little help from his friends, Nathan has a plan to rekindle the flame. It isn't long before they're burning up the sheets. Winning her heart? That's another matter.

Now that they're dating, though, Ben wishes she'd dial down the skimpy clothes and flirty attitude, and her habit of dancing around the bar and flashing to her favorite song. Every teasing peek at her body, every laugh at some customer's lousy joke, is certainly good for business–but it sends his jealousy meter into the red zone.
Sure, they're dating, but he's no muscled, tattooed stud with diamonds in his ears. How can he compete, especially when she refuses to even spend the night at his place? Desperate, Ben books a room at his friend Paolo's fantasy club, hoping an erotic night in front of a two-way mirror will get her exhibitionist streak out of her system. Praying it won't prove his greatest fear–that she lives only to show off. And he's not that special to her at all… Product Warnings: Flirting and pole dancing, hot sex and showing off for an invisible audience. Stop by the playhouse and live out your fantasies!

Born a psionic–a rare human prized by the government for her gifts–agridome worker Via Brede lives by two simple rules: slip into stealth mode whenever the cybernetic-enhanced militia is near. And never remove the gloves that block her psychic ability.
During a routine delivery, a tear in her glove connects her with what should be her worst nightmare. A meched-out soldier with bulging muscles and a scarred face that makes her heart pound like a pneumatic drill. She also envisions his death in an attack that happens…now. Locke's typically ho-hum mission goes sideways when the stunning, green-eyed bubble farmer plants a sensual kiss that sets fire to every one of his remaining man-nerves. He also sees her vision. His own commander is about to kill him. He needs Via to find out why. First step is to get her to Old Las Vegas without succumbing to a raw, sexual need that burns in him like fever. Getting there will be a snap. Getting out alive–and winning her trust–might be a little tougher.

Years may have passed since he escaped that freak show, but the scars are still fresh.
Without the mandatory implant, Steel scrapes by, living free of the Grid's control. When a job goes bad, everyone around her dies, their minds crushed by the notorious Cardinal. But he doesn't kill her. He takes her to a secret lair filled with fascinating, forbidden pre-Grid knowledge. Who is this man–ruthless murderer or eccentric loner? Bad-mannered as she is, Dante can't bring himself to silence the abrasive, cigarette-addicted Steel. Something about her calls to him, though trusting her could be a mistake. Should she betray him, it would wipe out years of patient waiting. Waiting while the Grid hunts him for the priceless information he carries within his living data vault. Waiting while his dish of revenge turns ice cold. For Dante intends to go back. And this time, he intends to be the only one left standing.

CIA counter-terrorism expert Manuel Ramirez has spent the last three years looking for the woman he loves, who disappeared without a trace while on a post-graduate trip to France.

He's got enough trouble trying to rebuild his relationship with his three brothers who, until just recently, ran the other way when he approached. He's not the bully they grew up with, but bad memories are tough to overcome.
Morgan Barrett is as worn out as a vat full of crushed grape skins. She never planned to run Cedar Creek Winery, but there's no one else to shoulder the load as her father recovers from an injury. All she needs is a little sleep. Just a five-minute nap in the booth at the Dew Drop Inn…if that guy across the bar would stop staring at her as if putting her head down on the table is a crime. After Morgan yawns in Erik's face, there's nowhere to go but up. With time, though, their relationship warms like a perfectly blended Bordeaux. Until the shady mayor digs into Erik's past and dredges up information that could drive a permanent wedge between him and his brothers–and sour any chance of a future with Morgan.

Until two turns into a twenty-demon ambush. When he wakes up, he's missing his network-enabled halo–and one of his metal wings.
The down-level junk dealer tending Gabe's wounds has hands that spark nerve endings he never knew he possessed. But for an angel cut off from Heaven, an attic in Old Trent feels more like a trap than a sanctuary. Demons on his doorstep are nothing new for Jeff Werth. Ever since they saved his daughter's legs, they've been calling in their marker. In exchange for his services–nursing Gabe back to health so they can use him as a pawn in their war with Heaven–they'll consider the debt paid in full. Except having a powerless angel at his mercy feeds a rising desire that has him rethinking the deal. Then the de-haloed Gabe begins having dreams that become visions…then memories. Until he's not sure whose side he's on. Heaven, or the simple family man who healed his broken wings…and made his heart whole.

Not from the law, or even a jealous lover. From herself–and what she is. That strategy works for her until a funeral demands she return to home ground, and her best friend disappears. Finding Delainie means Jackie must confront the truth…and accept the help of a mysterious, sexy-as-sin Texan.
Marshall Rourke isn't the only one flying under the radar. He's on an off-the-grid quest to track down a rogue ex-partner who hunts paranormal beings for the joy of the kill. Convincing the unexpectedly feisty Jackie to trust him isn't easy, but there's no better way to lure the hunter into the open than to dangle as unique a target as Jackie–the last Tasmanian Tiger shifter in existence. Trouble is, Marshall hadn't counted on Jackie's brutal right cross. Or the fact that her simmering sexuality calls to his inner wolf on every imaginable level. And that the killer is about to use their desire to add them both to his trophy case… Product Warnings: This title contains the following: explicit sex out in the bush, wild shifter sex in an abandoned shack, passionate sex in a hotel shower. Plus a Texan hero with a very big secret, an Australian heroine with an even bigger one, a significant amount of violence and as always, Australian sarcasm. Read An Excerpt and Order Online Here

Now they've got everything to lose. Zach Ryler always prided himself on his ability to handle anything life flung at him. Nothing could have prepared him for his sister's brutal murder, let alone being named legal guardian of her three children. Now, the only person who can help him is the one woman he vowed never to touch again. The one woman his love couldn't fix.
Rebecca James never stopped loving Zach, even after her infertility slowly crushed her spirit and destroyed their marriage. Suddenly Fate has dropped her dream in her lap: a family.

He should know, he's spent his life running from his father's expectations. Her magic touch leaves him wanting more, and as she waits for car repairs, she seems to fit naturally into small-town life, and his heart. Except she resists all his efforts to get at her core. One mishap after another makes it seem like Fate is conspiring to throw Gillian in Quint's path–and into his arms. The heat they generate, though, isn't enough to drown out the nagging feeling that the past is about to smoke her out of hiding… Product Warnings: Sparks that ignite the whole town, dangerous secrets and some much-deserved butt-kicking.

When an assassin tags Xia, her new guardian arrives–a seal shifter linked to the very element she fears. Adam is certain that Markos, Xia's boss and sometimes lover, is putting her in unnecessary danger. But Xia has tasted the inhuman cruelty that is Aqua and will do anything to stop her, even relive a terrifying, perilous spell. Now that Adam has been assigned to protect her witchy spirit wanderings, Xia has to trust him. It isn't his power or ability she's uneasy about, but the fact he'll have to take all the pain meant for her. Then the Chamber ruthlessly deploys Xia and Adam in a dangerous ritual. Adam can protect her body and defend her mind…but nothing can safeguard her from the backlash of the world-changing knowledge she discovers.

Her not-so-secretly wanting him–big trouble.* The Bradfords, Book 3 There's only one problem with the woman Jason "Mac" Gordon wants: his best friend's little sister is off limits. Way off limits, and too young and innocent for the likes of him. From past experience, he's learned to hide his not-so-nice preferences from the nice girls he seems to attract. That definitely includes the woman he's always thought of as a sister. At least until recently.
Sara Bradford always gets what she wants–which is partly Mac's fault. After all, he helped spoil her. So she has no intention of taking his no for an answer on anything–least of all his refusal to sleep with her. He thinks she's too innocent? Fine. She'll simply get un-innocent and show Mac that she wants him–the good, the bad and the nipple clamps. When Mac's plan to drive her away works too well, he's forced to follow her to a tropical paradise, determined to make sure she doesn't find her wild side with anyone but him. Once she gets a real taste of what he likes, he's sure everything will go back to normal. That's until he discovers a slight kink, er, flaw in his logic… Product Warnings: Contains hot sex at the beach, kinky online shopping–and yes, cotton-candy-flavored body powder does exist.

Darius, Earl of Clarridge, has never stopped searching for the woman who haunts him. He doesn't expect her to believe that her letters never reached him.

Looking for a safe place to release the reins of control and explore her curiosity about BDSM, May takes a friend up on an invitation to visit an exclusive bondage club–all she has to agree to is a public submission.
Evan can't help but notice the exotically beautiful May. But despite his success, the dirty secrets of his past whisper that he'll never be good enough for her. When Evan sees her standing in his club ready to submit to his best friend, he gives in to the thing he wants most–May as his sub. After their session, he knows one night will never be enough. But loving May isn't easy for a man always ready to take charge. She might like to submit in the bedroom, but she doesn't like anyone telling her what to do outside of it. When May insists she's not in any danger from the person seemingly obsessed with her, she ends up in the sights of a deranged stalker–with Evan possibly too far away to help.

	Primal Pleasure by Sydney Somers Genre: Paranormal, Red Hots!!!, Shape-shifters, Magical Happenings Length: 216 Pages, ISBN: 978-1-60928-299-8, Series: Pendragon Gargoyles Price: $14.00 Limited time sale-priced for $9.80 *He will have his revenge–one wicked seduction at a time.* Pendragon Gargoyles, Book 3 Emma is used to getting dragged into her twin sister's magical messes, but this time her predicament is more than a minor annoyance. She's chained to a cat shifter that her sister encased in a curse of stone. Worse, the unfortunate gargoyle's waking up. And her sister's not there to take the heat.
After a century suspended in stone, Cian would do anything to get his hands on the sorceress who put him there. Strangely, his dreams of revenge turn into an animal hunger to put his hands all over her–in every delightfully wicked way imaginable. Never as talented as her sister, Emma doesn't trust her own magic. But for now she must let Cian believe she's the culprit in order to strike a bargain: to permanently lift the curse in exchange for his tracking skills to find her missing sister. The longer she is near him, though, the closer she comes to surrendering much more than her body to the brutal warrior. As their attraction catches fire, Emma dreads what could happen when he learns the truth. If he will sacrifice her to break the spell…or fight for a love that goes beyond animal instinct. Product Warnings: This book contains adult language, violence, bone-melting explicit sex and a stubborn alpha male who likes his revenge served hot, wild and strong enough to bring him to his knees.

	Renegade Passions by Loribelle Hunt Genre: Paranormal, Romantic Suspense, Red Hots!!!, Shape-shifters Length: Novella, ISBN: 978-1-60928-387-2, Series: Forbidden Passions Price: $3.50 Limited time sale-priced for $2.45 No one can outfly the speed of fate. Forbidden Passions, Book 4 As a member of the elite Messenger Corps, werebird Alexandra "Ajax" Petros is in her element. Under the protection of her people's steadfast political neutrality, the only thing she can't outfly are the secrets of her past–and her birthright as destined queen.
Which is exactly what she's trying to do when she lands, literally, in the arms of a man with claws–and cold, methodical wits–as razor sharp as her own eagle talons. For Nicodemus Leonidas, information is power. The journey into werebird territory to find out what happened to his father is a calculated risk, but nothing is more dangerous than his and Ajax's instant, explosive chemistry. In the heat of the moment, he senses the stubbornly independent woman is his mate…and that she's hiding something. Evasive maneuvers do Ajax no good. Inexorably, Nico peels away her layers until he holds her very soul in his hands. And when she uncovers a plot to steal her throne, he is the one man with the power to force her to make the one choice she never wanted to face… Product Warnings: This book contains sex. A lot of it. In a kitchen, up against a wall, bent over a sofa, tied up and not tied up. Also, a family betrayal, a fight to the death, a reluctant queen and a very kinky leopard with control issues.

	The Facilitator by Sahara Kelly Genre: SciFi – Futuristic, Cyberpunk Length: Novella, ISBN: 978-1-60928-386-5 Price: $3.50 Limited time sale-priced for $2.45 Reality is a corkscrew and humanity is the wine. In one carefully compartmentalized section of her life, Martine TwoSeven likes stylish, sexy clothing and a meal that doesn't come out of a mech vendor. In the other, she's a Facilitator. She takes pride in her gift for helping souls pass with no pain, no sorrow, no fear, only pleasure. Whatever that pleasure may be.
A week after a particularly difficult case that feels "off" and goes terribly wrong, the dreams begin. Dreams inhabited by a mysterious man whose searing touch seems more real than it should. And who knows more than he should. Things that don't add up. When a new Facilitator arrives at Eternal Tranquility, Johann Seven steps straight out of her dreams, a solid presence in her bed–and her heart. First, he awakens her long-dormant passions. Then he reveals the unthinkable truth behind her life and her job–and her world shatters. Before she can pick up the pieces, Martine receives her next assignment–to "facilitate" Johann. She has no choice but to obey, but when their neural pathways connect, she knows only one thing. If anyone's going down today, it won't be the man she loves. Product Warnings: Contains advanced concepts about human nature, life, death, sex and reality. Sometimes more than one at a time. Read at your own risk and keep one foot on the floor at all times.

Langley Genre: Paranormal, GLBT, Shape-shifters Length: Novel, ISBN: 978-1-60928-265-3, Series: With or Without Price: $5.50 Limited time sale-priced for $3.85 Love was never part of his plan…until it pounced. With or Without, Book 4 As heir to an old and proud heritage, Aubrey Reynolds works and lives for his family, his employees and his pack. Agreeing to watch after a visiting werewolf is no big deal–until he discovers the newcomer is his mate. His very male mate…which is a very big deal, indeed. Revealing his sexuality was never part of Aubrey's well -ordered life plan.

Much as he loved caring for his eight younger brothers, Matt Mahihkan knows it's time to grab the opportunity to attend college in Atlanta. Realizing Aubrey is his mate should have been a delightful experience…except Aubrey treats him more like a dirty little secret than a lover. Yet Matt is a patient man. Aubrey can't stay in the closet forever. Can he? In time, they settle into a comfortable, if complicated, routine. Until a rogue werewolf with an axe to grind forces Aubrey to add to the wedge of secrets driving him and Matt apart, leaving Matt exposed to danger…and Aubrey forced to choose between love and duty. Product Warnings: Contains color abuse with a really bad sense of fashion, a southern accent from hell, sex on antique furniture, a pouncing playful werewolf, obnoxious siblings, liberal use of a color identifier and impatient sex.
