The Book Boyfriends series are three interconnected stand-alone romances. They're fun, steamy, and full of CK awesomeness.



Book Boyfriend: Secret romance author, Alex, and adorably awkward book blogger, Mia, have a great online friendship--without knowing each other's real identities. But when they meet in person (in a bookstore, and he buys her books y'all), the sparks are scorching hot and a case of mistaken identity quickly spirals out of control. Bonus: Mia has an asshole cat named Fabio.

Cocky Roommate: Kendra rents her room to her brother's colleague but gets much more than she bargained for in Weston Reid. He's a straight up A-S-S-H-O-L-E. Or is he? The bigger they are, the harder they fall, and Weston falls HARD. Bonus: he likes to walk around in his underwear.

Hot Single Dad: Trauma surgeon Caleb needs a nanny for his young daughter, Charlotte, aka "Bug." But Linnea? She's a terrible idea. Why? Three reasons. One, he's insanely attracted to her from the minute he sees her. Two, she's way too young for him. And three, she's his sister-in-law. Yeah, this just got complicated. Bonus: text fails and boob jokes.

The epic conclusion to the Bailey Brothers series, Rewriting the Stars, is available!

Firefighter Levi Bailey is used to being alone. Not that he’s lonely. How could he be, with a band of unruly brothers, and their wives and growing families. Maybe he’s the odd man out. The one brother who isn’t destined to be with his soulmate.

Besides, he has her.

She’s his Juliet, the only woman in the world he can’t ever have. To an outsider, it probably seems crazy. But the Tilikum town feud is no joke—especially now—and Annika Haven is strictly forbidden.

Annika Haven never expected to be back in her hometown, let alone as a single mom with two jobs. Add in a pack of overprotective brothers, a brewing family crisis, and a gossipy, feuding town on the brink of chaos, and life gets complicated.

But at least she has him.

He’s her Romeo, a son of the enemy. He makes her smile on her worst days. Yet, despite his brooding sex appeal, the one thing she cannot do is fall for Levi Bailey. They’re just friends and that’s the way it has to stay.

But after months of secret texts and stolen glances, one soul-stealing kiss changes everything. And Levi Bailey is about to do the impossible.

Defy the feud.

Author’s note: an intense hero who relentlessly pursues what he wants and a single mom with a tender heart. Small-town shenanigans, a hundred-year-old mystery, a riot of crazy brothers, enough heat to melt your Kindle (and your ovaries), and the biggest, heart-burstingest, happily ever after you’ve been waiting for.



Rewriting the Stars is available on Amazon (in both paperback and ebook) and is in Kindle Unlimited. The audiobook is coming later this spring and stay tuned for a huge announcement about audio. You're going to LOVE it.

Happy binge reading!

http://mybook.to/ChasingHerFire5

Sexy firefighter Logan Bailey is an expert at putting the wet stuff on the hot stuff—on and off duty. But he just did the unthinkable, and it wasn’t trading in his tube socks. He slept with his nemesis. His mortal enemy. The crazy redhead he loves to hate. Cara Goulding.

And no matter how much he wants to lie to himself, he has to admit, it was mind-blowing.
Cara will not be tempted by the one night she spent with prince dickhead—even if her traitorous body remembers every earth-shattering moment. It was a mistake and she’s stronger than that. She’ll just keep avoiding him and pretend it didn’t happen.

But the feuding small town of Tilikum might not be big enough for the both of them. Avoiding each other isn’t working. And with every moment they’re forced to spend together, the sparks get hotter, the flames grow brighter, and the tension borders on unbearable.

Until they both reach their breaking point and their fiery relationship explodes.

Author’s note: a sexy firefighter and the sassy redhead who drives him crazy. All the banter, delicious tension, a heartwarming family, and Kindle-melting steam. Enemies to lovers is as hot as it gets and these two are FIRE.

Did you miss my newsletter on Friday?

Here's what you missed. An (unedited) excerpt from Chasing Her Fire. (And in case I'm not being 100% clear, yes, the woman in this scene is the heroine.)

We found Gram in the kitchen, sitting at the big farmhouse table our grandad had made. Her hair was more silver than black now, but she still wore it in a long braid down her back. Lines creased her dark skin, especially around her eyes, and they deepened with her smile.

Grace sat with her at the table with a steaming cup of tea. Her blond hair was cut in a short bob and she’d tucked it behind her ears. We’d grown up next door to Grace, and she’d married my oldest brother Asher. Now she was pregnant with Gram’s first great-grandchild.

"Ladies," I said, pretending to tip a hat. "Bailey twins at your service. What can we do for you?"

"Jack and Elijah built me some new bookshelves," Gram said. Jack was Grace’s stepdad and Elijah was her younger brother. Once I would have called him her little brother, but he wasn’t so little anymore. The kid was growing up fast. "I need to make some space in the front room, so I thought we could move things around in there."

"Sounds good. Just tell us where you want everything."

I whirled around, ready to get to work, and almost had a fucking heart attack.

It was her.

Cara stood a few feet in front of me—way too close for comfort—her red hair loose around her face. I had a sudden vision of her flipping that hair over her bare shoulder. But not standing, like she was now. Bent over in front of me, naked, all that flaming red hair cascading over her pale skin.

Fuck.

I’d successfully avoided her for the last few weeks, and I did not like being in close quarters with her now.

"What the fu—" I stopped myself from saying fuck just in time. No matter how old we got, Gram still didn’t tolerate swearing in her house. "What are you doing here?"

Her green eyes narrowed and she lifted her chin, drawing my gaze to the slope of her throat. I wanted to run my tongue up—

Nope. No I didn’t.

The hard-on I was suddenly sporting might have suggested otherwise. But come on, that was just my dick. Everyone knows you can’t trust a man’s junk.

Especially when it comes to crazy redheads.

She opened her mouth to speak and I braced for impact, knowing whatever she said was going to piss me off. In fact, the simple act of her lips parting was already pissing me off.

But her eyes flicked to Gram and Grace behind me, and I could practically see the bitchy comment die on her lips. "I’m having tea with Gram and my boo."

The fact that she was behaving herself in front of Gram kind of made me want to do the opposite. To pick a fight with her in Gram’s kitchen, just because I didn’t want her to be right. Ever. But I decided it was probably best if I didn’t. Because quite honestly, I wasn’t sure if I could trust my mouth any more than I could trust my dick around her right now.

"Whatever," I grumbled and moved past her, giving her a wide berth.

A few weeks ago, before the night of Skylar’s book launch party, I would have fired off a smart ass comment. But now? I was worried if we started going at each other, like we usually did, I’d say something that would give me away.

I’d been drunk as fuck, but I knew what had happened. Every time I saw her, even at a distance, my body reminded me. I’d done the unthinkable.

I’d fucked Cara Goulding.
