Forbidden King is LIVE!
Forbidden King by Laura Pavlov is now live!
From USA Today and Amazon Charts Bestselling Author Laura Pavlov, comes an all-new Small Town, Brother’s Best Friend, Found Family Standalone Romance.
Saylor Woodson is the one girl I can’t have, and the only girl I want.
She’s my best friend’s little sister, and completely off limits.
We have a history, a connection―one that no one else knows about. One that I’ve tried hard to forget.
I've kept my distance for years, which was easy because she’d been away at school.
Now she’s home, and she’s everywhere I turn.
And the way that I want her is unexplainable.
She’s sunshine on a cloudy day.
I do everything in my power to keep my distance, because her brother is my best friend. My family. But the pull is too strong.
I want to claim her and keep her and make her mine.
So, we cross that line in the sand―slowly at first.
Until I’m drowning in this girl and can’t find my way up for air.
Betrayal runs deep, and guilt hangs over me like a dark cloud.
Except I can’t seem to walk away, no matter how hard I try.
Because now that I’ve had a taste of forever, I’m willing to risk everything to keep it.
Can we weather the storm that’s coming for us?
Only time will tell.

Forbidden King Excerpt
“You were intentionally avoiding me?” I asked, shaking my head in disbelief.
“Yep. I’m not too proud to admit it.” She walked around the counter and tipped her head up to look at me. She held the dandelion I’d left on the counter in her hand. “To admit that I’m confused by what I feel for you.”
“There’s nothing to be confused about, Saylor. We’re friends. Close friends.”
“Do you get off to all your friends in the middle of a party in your bathroom?” she whispered, and my fucking mouth went dry.
She’d fucking heard me.
I wouldn’t deny it. I couldn’t look her in the eyes and deny it.
“Saylor.”
“King,” she mimicked me. “Answer the question.”
“Fuck. I’m sorry you heard that. I’m a horny asshole.”
She nodded once, her gaze locking with mine. “What did you mean when you chose the book Forbidden King? Are you forbidden, King?”
I looked away for a minute, trying to gather my thoughts. She was so close, and my body was reacting. My dick was throbbing uncomfortably behind my zipper. My heart pounded in my ears. “Obviously, being best friends with your brother makes us both forbidden, right?”
“So, I’m curious. Do you want to kiss me as much as I want to kiss you?” Her hand fisted in the fabric of my tee.
“That wasn’t the question.”
“Well then, I guess there’s a new question for you.”

Wild River is LIVE!
A Small Town, Enemies to Lovers, Boy Obsessed, Found Family, Standalone Romance from USA Today and Amazon Bestselling Author, Laura Pavlov.
Ruby Rose declared me the enemy before I had a chance to defend myself.
I may be an attorney, but this girl had appointed herself judge and jury.
And I’d never minded a good verbal sparring.
There was a comfort in going to battle against the evil queen.
Maybe it was just the recognition of one damaged soul to another.
But the more we fought—the more I craved her.
Until our arguing turned into a bit of a wager.
One I was determined to win.
One time. Sixty seconds. A secret only we would share.
I’d work my magic and she’d declare me the winner.
I’d gloat, she’d sulk—that was my plan.
She was determined to prove me wrong.
But from the minute we crossed the line, there was no turning back.
She was so far under my skin I couldn’t think straight.
Feeling things that I’d never felt before was one thing.
But knowing the clock was ticking was another.
Ruby Rose may have given me more than sixty seconds, but she wasn’t offering forever.
And now my world doesn’t work without her in it.
But how do I convince her to stay, when she already has one foot out the door?

Narrated by CJ Bloom and Vincent Skye
A bullheaded alpha. The bane of my existence. I can't escape him no matter how hard I try.
Emma
I don't do feelings—especially not with an arrogant, broody Taylor brother.
But one moment of weakness on an elevator wrecks me. I curse his name. I curse said elevator.
Yet I find myself wanting to be trapped in a small space with Spence Taylor again.
And don't even get me started on his day job. The man can do just about anything with those hands. Those big hands, and er—big feet. I digress.
Spence
Emma Kingsley is the most infuriating woman I've ever known. Stubborn, arrogant, and sexy as sin. She drives me crazy. And she's determined to hate me.
The funny thing is—I can't get enough.
But the woman has more walls up than the royal palace. Lucky for her, I make a living tearing down walls. And I just found my favorite project.
Time to renovate, Queenie.

Narrated by Connor Crais & Mackenzie Cartwright
Blurb:
She’s my best friend’s little sister. Completely off-limits. But every man has his breaking point.
Lila James is my best friend’s little sister and I’ve always looked out for her.
She's five years younger than me, and when she left for college, she was just a kid.
But now she’s home for the summer—and she’s definitely not a kid anymore.
She’s beautiful and smart and everything I didn’t know I needed.
Dark eyes. Long wavy hair. And legs that are meant to be wrapped around me.
I'm the guy who likes to have a good time.
Keep things light.
When her brother asks me to hire her at my restaurant, it's a no-brainer.
There isn’t anything I wouldn’t do for her.
Until she asks me for one more favor.
She wants me to be her first.
Take her V-card.
Go where no man has gone before.
Her words, not mine.
And damn if I don’t want to go there more than I’ve ever wanted anything.
She's only here for the summer, and she says it will be our secret.
It’s temporary.
We’ll go back to being just friends at the end of summer.
She promises that she won’t fall for me.
She knows better.
But Lila isn’t the one I'm worried about.

Blurb:
He’s an actor in need of an image makeover. She’s determined to show her ex-fiancé that she’s moved on. A fake relationship between two best friends is the perfect solution. Or is it?
Reese Murphy has been my best friend since before we took our first steps.
She’s the yin to my yang.
The peanut butter to my jelly.
It’s all platonic, of course, as we made a pact years ago that we’d never cross the line.
But then she took a job abroad and moved away for a year.
To say I’ve been lost without her would be a massive understatement.
She’s finally coming home, and I couldn’t be happier about it.
And then she presents me with a proposition...
Pretend to be her boyfriend.
I am an actor, after all, so it should be a piece of cake.
It’s all part of her grand plan to show her ex-fiancé that she’s moved on.
My agent wants me to clean up my image, so it would be a win-win for both of us.
But then she moves into my house and prances around in those tiny pajama shorts.
There's also the night she catches me alone in the bathroom in a compromising position.
And she isn’t in any hurry to leave.
We get lost in the moment and now I can’t think of anything else.
We are way past a gray area at this point.
We’ve entered a smoking-hot-I-think-I-might-be-in-love-with-my-best-friend area.
The problem is, she still thinks we’re fake dating.
And I stopped faking it a long time ago.

Wild River Excerpt
He nodded, a wicked grin spreading across his face. “Anyway, stop overthinking it. It’s a fucking barbecue. No one’s proposing marriage here. We both know what this is. A one-and-done. I got it. You’ve got it. But we’re still going to see each other at the bar and the hospital every day, so no reason we can’t have a fucking burger with friends together.”
“Ahhh… there’s the poet again. Fine. I could eat. Turns out, being felt up in the shower really works up a girl’s appetite.”
I texted Demi back to let her know I’d be coming over and then followed him toward the front door and outside as he pulled open the passenger door to his car.
I gaped at him. “I’m walking home. I have to change my clothes.”
“You’re walking like you just got bucked off a badass bull. I’m giving you a ride home. Get in the fucking car.”
“Such a gentleman,” I hissed, because it was just our schtick, I guess. Maybe we’d been too nice this morning, and we needed to get things back to normal. I climbed into the passenger seat, and he slammed the door dramatically.
The heathen.
He drove me home in silence, and that bothered me.
“So now you’re not talking to me?”
“You know, there are a lot of women in this town that wouldn’t mind spending a night with me and getting a ride home. You act like I’m going to fucking murder you.” His hands were gripping the steering wheel so hard I could see the whites of his knuckles, and I couldn’t help but laugh.
He looked over and glared at me, and I just kept laughing because now that I’d started, I couldn’t stop. He pulled up in front of my house and turned to face me.
“Are you done?”
I pulled myself together. “Sorry. I don’t think you’re going to murder me.”

I pulled myself together. “Sorry. I don’t think you’re going to murder me.”

Blurb:
A bullheaded alpha. The bane of my existence. I can’t escape him no matter how hard I try.
Emma…
I don’t do feelings.
Especially not with an arrogant, broody Taylor brother.
But one moment of weakness on an elevator wrecks me.
I curse his name.
I curse said elevator.
Yet I find myself wanting to be trapped in a small space with Spence Taylor again.
And don’t even get me started on his day job.
The man can do just about anything with those hands.
Those big hands, and er—big feet.
I digress.
Spence…
Emma Kingsley is the most infuriating woman I’ve ever known.
Stubborn, arrogant, and sexy as sin.
She drives me crazy.
And she’s determined to hate me.
The funny thing is—I can’t get enough.
But the woman has more walls up than the royal palace.
Lucky for her, I make a living tearing down walls.
And I just found my favorite project.
Time to renovate, Queenie.
