The last thing I need is my hot neighbor Chris and his neverending group of friends poking their collective noses into my business. And don't get me started on his kid...Hate is a strong word, but I hate kids. Especially ones that defecate in my yard.I just want to be left alone to figure out life now that I have a fresh start. But starting over has its drawbacks. I'm no contact with my parents, low contact with my brother-his choice, not mine--and my sketchy ex and so-called friends are behind bars. All of that suits me just fine. Except I have no one else I can ask for help and a moving trailer to empty.That's all the invitation Chris and his friends need to invite themselves into my life. And once they're in, they make themselves at home in my life. Especially Chris and his kid.Or, more specifically, his kid. He won't leave me alone. And, honestly, I mind less than I thought I would. He's a pretty cool little guy.And Chris... well, he has this way of looking at me that makes me feel naked. And that's how we usually end up when he uses it.But I'm not the only one with a past. He accepted mine, but his might be a problem.How can I compete with the mother of his child?

She was searching for herself and found so much more.Ryan LeDoux is terrifying-ly beautiful. He's tall and strong, and watching him with a heavy bag... he should charge admission.He also takes tall, dark, and broody to another level. I swear he hates me and only tolerates my presence because my best friend is like a sister to him.But my job puts us on a collision course that changes everything. There's a lot more to Ryan than I ever knew. Yes, he's growly and broody and dangerous, but he's also sweet, caring, and kind. He's my biggest cheerleader, minus the pleated skirt and pom-poms.He quickly becomes the person I turn to when my two besties are too busy for my mama drama. With him in my corner, I find the confidence I need to live my life on my terms instead of my mother's.And the confidence I need to ask him for something I shouldn't.His answer might be more than I bargained for.It's Not You is a stand alone romance with a guaranteed HEA. It contains mature language and content and is intended for a mature audience.

Austin Chambers fooled me into thinking he was everything I could possibly want in a man-funny, kind, caring, family-oriented, and extremely sexy. But his attempt at humor left me hurt and angry.I guess I have crummy taste in men--and the horrible track record to prove it. Which is why I swore off dating when I moved here to begin withI would be quite content never seeing Austin again, but he's my new best friend's soon-to-be brother-in-law and they're close. Avoiding him isn't easy since I haven't clued her into his idea of a "joke," but I do my best.But my best isn't good enough since anger and hate are strong emotions. Too much time in each other's company brings us to the boiling point and things get physical--but not in the way I feared. The best kiss I've ever had leads to more--a lot more. And I can't quite bring myself to regret it.That night changes things. It changes Austin. He seems determined to make it up to me and instead of devolving into screaming matches, we actually manage to communicate. That spark between us that just won't die seems like it might become a flame.Until I find out his friends dared him to prove he isn't allergic to commitment and I'm his unwitting victim.How can I ever trust him again?

Leaving Gabe wasn't easy. It's not that I don't love him anymore. A look from him could still make me weak in the knees right up until the day we signed the divorce papers.It turns out, money really can't buy happiness, especially not when all he ever does is work. When things were good they were great-especially when clothes started hitting the floor. Things haven't been good for a long time, though. I had to do what was right for me. If you love something let it go and all that...I was prepared to never see him again until a mutual friend tracked me down with news that tested that resolve. To prove to myself, and everyone else, that I'm really over him, I seek him out to give us both the closure we didn't get during our divorce. But the fortress I built to protect my heart isn't as secure as I thought.Our time apart has changed him. Or maybe it was one of his friends forcibly removing his head from a place it didn't belong, if you get my drift. Either way, the old Gabe, my Gabe, is back. And I'm starting to remember why I fell in love with him the first time.Until an unsavory individual from his past resurfaces and things begin to unravel.Do we get a second chance at happily ever after?

Mason Chambers is not just my billionaire boss. He's also a single dad and someone I tentatively consider a friend. The kind of friend I've harbored feelings for for years-not that I'd admit that to anyone, even myself.Everything changes when his grandfather threatens his inheritance. Mason proposes a fake relationship with an eventual trip down the aisle like it's nothing more than a business agreement.I'd like to say I can't be bought, but I'm in no position to turn him down. Declining risks not only my job, but my relationship with his daughter, who I love like my own.But pretending to be in love with him means playing with fire. I guess I'll have to be careful.As careful as I can be when I'm holding a match and he shows up with gasoline. Our first "date" proves that he's as good at pretending as he is at running a company. He breaks through the barriers I've built to protect myself with a look, a smile, and a kiss that convinces me to trust him with my body, if not my heart.It's only a matter of time before I give him that as well.But can we convince those around us that a man of his background can love a woman like me, or will their prejudices tear us apart?
