Saved by the boss

➡️ Amazon
➡️ Goodreads
My rule is to never fall in love with a client.
His rule? To never fall in love at all.
I work at an elite matchmaking company. A failing one, to be honest.
We’re near bankruptcy when billionaire Anthony Winter invests.
It’s only business for him—he doesn’t believe in the company’s mission.
No, Anthony tells me true love is a lie and our clients are delusional.
He’s a cynic in a thousand-dollar suit. He’s also a challenge I can't resist.
We make a bet. I have three dates to prove our service works.
Three dates to set him up with the woman he never knew he needed.
He has no intention of finding one. I have no intention of being her.
But as we spend time together, I realize his cynicism is only a facade.
He’s a man hiding a painful secret. A man hurting.
And most definitely a man worthy of true love.
He saved my company.
Will he let me save him in return?

Hayden Cole was everything I should stay away from.
He was my brother's best friend and the boy from the wrong side of the tracks. Broken smiles. Dark hair. Eyes that had seen far, far too much for his age.
We spent a summer together in secret. In the darkness, in the silence, our hearts spoke the same language. Until he left without a word and tore mine right out of my chest.
Ten years later he’s back from the Navy, and he’s demanding a second chance. He’s every inch the rogue I remember—crooked smiles and amber eyes.
But this time I’ve learned my lesson, and I’m staying far away.
Lily Marchand was everything I could never have.
She was the golden child of my uncle’s rich employer and far too good for a guy like me. I’d known it, and I reached for her anyway, and it led to disaster. I had no choice but to leave and break both of our hearts.
But a decade has given me the respectability and money I lacked before. This time I’m not giving up without a fight—not when I know she feels the same.
Her parents might still despise me. Her brothers might want to kill me. But I’d just like to see them try to run me out of town again, because there’s no way I’m giving up on Lily without a fight.
Some people are meant to be together.
And I’ll make her believe it again.

Excerpt
He lifts his head, just enough to speak. “I don’t think kissing will be an issue for us,” he murmurs. I reply by kissing him again, capturing his answering chuckle against my lips. My hand slides up into his hair, the thick strands silky through my fingers. He growls into my mouth as I tug.
This is a risk worth taking. There’s no telling when I’ll have a man like this touch me again, a handsome man who exudes power and competence and dark, sly wit.
“I’m not this girl,” I tell him. His hands grip my hips, pulling me tight against him. “I know,” he says, voice hoarse. “It only makes me want you more.”
The words send delicious shivers over my skin. High on him, on my own bravery, I sling one leg over his lap and straddle him. We might be concealed in this dark alcove, but we’re still at a party, and there are people milling about.
His hands run up the sides of my dress, ghosting past my breasts. “Kiss me again, Strait-laced.”

My billionaire boss is the absolute last person I’d marry. Until a deal with the devil forces me down the aisle... ready to say yes to the boss.
I once compared Victor St. Clair to Satan, but that’s unkind. Even the devil treats his demons better than St. Clair treats me. I know his schedule by heart. He can’t remember my first name.
So when he calls me into his office, I’m expecting another rant. Instead he says he needs to get married to inherit the St. Clair fortune. Oh, and the kicker? He wants to marry me. His assistant.
A one-year marriage of convenience to the boss I hate.
It means living with Victor’s dark stares and silences for a full year. But it’s also a chance to quit my job and start my own business. He’s a jerk, but he’s also a respected businessman. How hard can it be?
Answer: very. Because there’s more to Victor than I thought. Things beyond learning his lunch orders and sending company memos. And while the man is cold, his kisses are hot enough to consume us both.
He drove me crazy at work. Now he drives me crazy in bed. But craziest of all is… I might get used to being Mrs. St. Clair.

“I didn’t call you because I was drunk,” he says. “I called you because I was jealous.”
“Oh. Really?”
He runs a hand over the back of his neck. “Yeah. Not very chivalrous, perhaps, but that’s the truth. I’d promised to talk to you about dating, to give you a male perspective, but truth be told I stopped enjoying that a while back.”
The world tilts on its axis. Had I misread things from the beginning? Had he always… was this… “Oh,” I say again.
“You look shocked,” he says. “Can’t be the first time a man admits to wanting you?”
No, I think, but it’s the first time in forever I’ve wanted him back.

The golden angel who swooped in to save me from a nightmare first date turns out to be a billionaire vulture circling the company I work for.
Carter Kingsley: My savior and ruthless corporate raider hell bent on destroying the newspaper I love. Oh, and my new boss.
His first order of business? Cut half the staff. I should hate him. Easy, right?
Wrong.
I met him two weeks ago, when he saved me from the most awkward first date of my life. I was looking for a way out when he strolled up in a ten-thousand dollar suit with a winning smile, and told a white lie that turned the date from hell into heavenly bliss.
I left with his number in my phone, and spent the next two weeks staying up late to text him. He's charming. Funny. Sincere.
Completely unlike the ruthless villain who comes in and carves us up.
My first order of business is to interview the new boss. But who is sitting on the other side of the desk? The man who saved and charmed me, or the one who’s threatening everything I hold dear?
Carter insists that we can still be friends, but I know that the whole situation is a ticking time bomb...

The Billionaire Scrooge Next Door

The Billionaire Scrooge Next Door
Coming November 21st!
❄️ Home-for-the-holidays
❄️ Brother's Best Friend
❄️ Snowed in together
❄️ A super cute dog!
Excerpt:
"What are your plans for Christmas, Mr. Scrooge?" I ask.
“Not much,” Adam says. He turns toward the center stage. The high school band has started playing again, the tune of a wonky “All I Want for Christmas” belting out across the fair.
“Will you be here? In town?”
“I haven’t decided yet.”
“Okay,” I say. I still don’t quite know what happened to his parents after everything, and there’s no easy way to ask. “Let me know if you are, so I know if I should get you your own snow globe.”
He groans. “Holly, don’t you dare.”
“I saw the way you were staring at the ones back there. There was lust in your eyes. Pure, unadulterated desire.”
“Lust,” he repeats, looking down at me. “No, there certainly wasn’t.”
“Yes,” I murmur. “You want to celebrate Christmas, deep down.”
“No,” he says, just as quietly. “I really don’t.”
My throat feels dry. His eyes are dark brown and steady and I want to get to know him. Everything about him is interesting to me. Adam Dunbar, the enigma I never got to solve.
Maybe he’ll let me this time around.

ROGUE

Lily
“Why are you angry, Lily?”
“How could I not be? You come back here and you fit in with the family. You joke around and make Mom laugh. You say you’re back indefinitely.” I must look a mess: crazed expression, arms moving. I don’t stop, either. I walk up to him and shove him hard, backwards.
He takes it in stride. “Lily?”
“Why did you kiss me?”
“Because I wanted to,” he repeats. “Because I…” He shakes his head, but doesn’t try to stop the blows I’m aiming at his chest, my fists barely connecting, tears burning behind my eyes.
“You can’t come back here and kiss me and act like we’re friends, as if you didn’t break my damn heart.”
There’s so much inside of me—ten years’ worth of anger and resentment—and it’s all coming out.
“I’m sorry.”
“How could you? You just left!”
“I’m sorry.”
Hayden wraps his arms around my waist, steadying me against him. He doesn’t stop me from hitting. It’s like he’s taking it all, offering me his flesh as payment. “I had to.”
“Why?” Another hit. “Why?”
His voice is pained. “I had to, Lily. I didn’t want to. It killed me to leave you.”
“It killed you?” I tear at the buttons of his shirt, needing to get closer to him. Needing the connection of skin, my nails on him, to make him hurt like I’ve hurt. “You didn’t even say goodbye. I spent years wondering if it was something I did.”
Hayden’s mouth is there, kissing away the hot, angry tears on my cheeks. “No, nothing you’d done, baby. Never anything you’d done.”
I bury my hand in his hair and meet his lips with my own. It’s fire and flame, the two of us, colliding without restraints. We’re still arguing, just with our kisses. I punish him with my lips and he responds with his tongue. It’s a fiery dance...
