New Release - One Bossy Date - An Enemies to Lovers Romance

Piper Renee knew she was in for it when she woke up with a stranger showering in her hotel room. But she didn't guess he'd be so outrageously hot—or moody. She didn't expect butterflies on the “date” where he tried to make everything right. She never imagined he'd barge into her life again with her entire future clenched in one grumpy alpha hand and her heart in the other.

Brock Winthrope rules a hotel empire worth billions with an iron fist and just as many problems. The mouthy, gorgeous bird nerd who could've buried him in scandal is one more. How the hell did she wind up on payroll? And how did she get so good at bringing his company the magic it lacks? More importantly, how does she overwhelm every sane thought in his cranky head with the bittersweet memory of a fateful kiss that was never meant to be?

There's one thing worse than one bossy date. One more.

Not a drill, you guys. One Bossy Date is here and I hope you're ready to soar. Oh, the places you'll go with Brock and Pippa. I'm still coming down from this ride and now it's your turn!

An accidental date brings together two instant enemies in this hilarious and steamy grumpy boss romance from Wall Street Journal bestselling author Nicole Snow.

Never sweat the small stuff, they say.
How about when you wake up with a giant stranger showering in your hotel room?
There's nothing tiny about Brock Winthrope.
He even roars like a lion when he sees me. I scream back. And after narrowly avoiding a murder scene, we've got trouble.

He says he'll fix our reservation blunder since he's the manager (he's not).
He thinks I'll smack his resort with the rotten egg review from hell (I might).
I've never seen a man so grumpy groveling his heart out to wow me (it's working).
Oh, but it gets better.

Brock whisks me away on an amazing “date” and things get heated.
I'm still dreaming about obnoxiously hot kisses under the stars months later when fate strikes.
I wasn't supposed to see him again.
Not at this dumpster fire marketing job I desperately need.
Not when I crash into him—literally.
Definitely not when I find out he's the crankyface billionaire CEO signing my checks.

Cue the freaking out.
The stormy glares.
The tension thicker than quicksand.
The hopeless promises to “just do my job” without choking on Mr. Grumpmuffin's attitude.
What's worse than one messy date with your radioactive boss?
One more.

Expect enemies-to-lovers fireworks! Delightful banter, slow-burn sweetness, plus one office beast who finally learns how to smile for the lady who ignites his world.

What are friends for? That's what Cordelia Burr wonders when she makes a deal with her bestie to break out of her shy, loveless shell. Graduate college with her v-card intact? Nah. Now, she just needs a man who checks all the boxes—and the mysterious handsome hulk who stomps onto her family's beach is one mammoth alpha yes. So it seems, anyway, but Fate just loves to throw the nastiest little wrench into the works...

Chris Triton is flipping gobsmacked. The sweet, smart-mouthed hellion from the beach would've been his—if only a shocking family twist hadn't rendered her eternally off limits. That should end it.

He should be focusing on a dangerous mission, not storming into Delia's room at night. Definitely not teasing her about the impossible. Absolutely, positively not whisking her away to Las Vegas and winding up in this swanky hotel where there's only one bed and a tension stretched to its very last thread.

Holy mother of unholy spicy books, people. This is not a drill. It's a whole heaping mess of beautiful chaos and an alpha with no chill going all-in to tame, protect, and keep the girl the entire universe says he can't have. Did you know I was shaking when I hit publish on this one? You have to find out why.

New Release - One Bossy Dare - An Enemies to Lovers Romance

Eliza Angelo, daydream believer and coffee-nerd extraordinaire, doesn't usually get in strange men's faces. But she never expected the chiseled, cocky suit snarling at her favorite neighborhood barista. The man was begging for an ego cheek. She delivered. And for her trouble, she won the most unlikely job offer ever with one big certifiably grumpy alpha catch—answering to him.

Cole Lancaster never thought he'd find his new muse and a massive headache in the same striking woman with a mouth from Hades. Too bad there's no denying her coffee genius, and the fact that she gets along with his teenage daughter is just icing on the cake. Except Cole doesn't do cake—or artsy young women he just can't evict from his head. So when he dares her to do the unthinkable—work under him—it's all business. Purely professional (if you can call that banter professional). Temporary.

Until one reckless slip into passion says no flipping way. Then it's steamy, strong, and so complicated that even a supergrump and Miss Sunshine could start believing in impossible forevers.

Holy hot bookness, you guys, it's here! Are you ready for the single dad grump, the firestarter, and all the caffeinated kisses you can handle? Cole and Eliza carved off a piece of my soul and now it's your turn.

New Release - One Bossy Proposal - An Enemies to Lovers Romance

Dakota Poe was mending a broken heart when she smacked into him. The gorgeous, intimidating suit who gave chase because she snagged the cafe's last cinnamon roll. He acted like his life depended on that pastry. She wasn't making any deals. That was supposed to be the end of it—until the universe decided she'd be calling him “boss.”

Lincoln Burns is a human storm. His life is work, work, and also work. When Miss Poe—or Nevermore as he calls her—blows into his life, it's hard to focus. He needs a top-notch copywriter to conquer the wedding market. Not a smart-mouthed imp who tempts him daily to take her over his knee. Not a woman who despises weddings when there's a fake engagement scheme in the works. Definitely not a girl who's too good at peeling back his defenses, his secrets, and tempting him to break rules written in stone (and HR policies).

Cinnamon roll fights. Rainy kisses. Poe jokes. Banter. Clashing hearts and sheet-ripping nights.

It's all here in this sweet and spicy and insanely emotional love saga disguised as a book! I'm so flipping excited for you to meet Lincoln and Dakota that I hope you'll dive right in.
