Beast (Norseton Wolves Book 1) by Holley Trent

Christina Stilton has waited all her life to become a wolf’s bride. Becoming mate to a stranger in a faraway pack is the only chance she has to escape her Appalachian life of poverty and abuse. She wants safety, but trusts The Fates to steer her toward love, too.

Love is the last thing on Anton Denis’s mind. He doesn’t want to saddle some hopeful woman to him. A brutal fight left him scarred and half blind. He’s a mercenary who can’t drive, can’t shoot straight, and on most days, can’t even crack a smile. He fully intends to send his mate away—to give her a chance at being matched to some stronger wolf—but stubborn Christina is intent on staying.

She might have been treated as a useless female back in Virginia, but her role in Anton’s small pack is clear. He needs to be loved and loved hard, and she’s just the woman for the job. She just needs to convince him to get out of her way and let her do it.

Hunted By the Others (H&W Investigations Book 1) by Jess Haines

In a town full of vampires, mages, and werewolves, detective work can be dangerous: “Dark and sexy . . . a paranormal treat” (Lara Adrian, New York Times–bestselling author).

Shiarra Waynest’s job was dangerous enough when her client base was strictly mortal. But ailing finances have forced her to accept a lucrative case that could save her firm—if it doesn’t kill her first. Shiarra has signed on to work for a high-level mage to recover an ancient artifact owned by one of New York’s most powerful vampires.

As soon as the detective meets the sexy, mesmerizing vampire Alec Royce, she knows her assignment is even more complicated than she thought. With a clandestine anti-Other group trying to recruit her and magi being eliminated, Shiarra needs backup. She enlists her ex-boyfriend—a werewolf whose non-furry form is disarmingly appealing—and a nerdy mage with surprising talents. But it may not be enough. In a city where the undead roam, magic rules, and even the Others aren’t always what they seem, Shiarra has just become the secret weapon in a battle between good and evil—whether she likes it or not.

Let’s Start Overby Ajme Williams

I have a child with a man whose real name I don’t even know…

No, I’m not crazy.
I’m just careless.
Or rather, I was careless.

At 18, I met an older man on vacation.
Never asked his name, but we sure as hell made a baby together.

Today, when I finally meet him, I find out he’s going to be my boss.
Life has to be joking around with me.
Well, his real name is Archer.
At least I know that much about my baby daddy!

Archer wants to give us a second chance.
That was after he found out he’s got a daughter.
My answer is no.

We could share a child, but I refuse to give him my heart.
Not when I know his own heart is closed off.

But what do I do when he puts his arm around me and gives me goosebumps?
Oh boy, I feel 18 all over again and I have a feeling that another mistake is right around the corner…

Let’s Start Over is a full-length, secret baby, office romance, with loads of forbidden naughtiness – the kind that makes you go weak in the knees. Filled with lots of heart and heat, all books in this series stand alone and promise a very satisfying happily ever after. No cheating or cliffhanger – EVER.

Just Say Yes (Escape to New Zealand Book 10) by Rosalind James

Some fires warm you up. And some burn you down.
Kevin McNicholl may be a brutal force on the rugby field, but off the field, the star New Zealand All Black is a famously nice guy. His new tenant, though, arouses more than his protective side. She sets him on fire. Pity he’s evicting her.

Every woman deserves her dreams. Chloe Donaldson can’t afford dreams, though, so she’s given them up. Marriage, her ballet career, and now, her beautiful tower apartment with its view of the sea. Her new landlord is kicking her out, along with her three-year-old son, Zavy.

She should hate him. But when a man looks at you like that, it’s so easy to lose your focus.

NOTE This STAND-ALONE romance, like New Zealand, contains a bit of steam. If that isn’t your cuppa, maybe visit another country . .
