★★★★★From kindle all-star and USA Today author, Taylor Hart! The South Port Beach Series!

Dawn Roxy, aspiring music professor and independent musician extraordinaire, never thought she'd really be playing at open mic night after open mic night, trying to win a stupid radio contest to give her some national exposure.

Trevor Holland, liked being a multimillionaire. He'd worked his butt off to become what he was, and of course, a nice stroke of luck had helped. But, when his mother layed on the Catholic guilt about attending his brother's wedding; he couldn't handle it.

Good thing, Trevor got to help out a hugely talented and smokin hot musician who got her guitar stolen. He tells her he'll give the guitar back if she agrees to two fake dates with him, just to get him through the wedding.

But she surprises him and demands two fake dates of her own. Good thing they can both keep this all fake and walk away at the end.....or can they?
When fake starts to feel real, the truth comes out. And, not just the truth about them ... the truth about lies that haven't been told for ten years.

As these beach friends find a way back to each other, they must learn to let go of what doesn’t matter and cling to the things of most value--family, love, and fun memories on the beach.

What do you say – when you don’t remember who you are? Can you fall in love? ♥ Is that even … legal?

When billionaire, Mia Jagger, goes to Wyoming to covertly evaluate a ranch in foreclosure, she never anticipates falling and hitting her head. When she wakes up and doesn’t remember who she is, admittedly, she’s afraid, and all she wants is that blue-eyed man who held her hand in the hospital.

Ross Charm doesn’t want to take a woman who can’t remember anything back to his ranch, but she keeps insisting and he can't leave her on her own.

When her family shows up and they both learn the truth, they must make a choice: let the past keep them apart or let true love have its’ happily ever after.

Join the journey of the Jagger Family Romances--and this first book starts it off!

Only 99¢ Secret Jamaica Undercover Billionaire: Jagger Family Romances

★★★★★From kindle all-star and USA Today author, Taylor Hart! The Jagger Family Romances!

What do you tell people – when you’re taking your honeymoon by yourself?

When billionaire, Daniel Jagger, tries to escape to his Jamaica resort to get away from his family and to NOT follow his father’s will, he never expected to meet a gorgeous woman who looks … so sad. And he really never expected to run into her and break her piece of art.

Shar Summers didn’t want to admit to the fact that her fiancé had broken her heart. To add insult to injury, he’d also done it on her wedding day. But she wouldn’t be denied a trip to Jamaica! First of all, she’d paid for it. Second of all, this was her chance to paint an ocean sunset and she wouldn’t be deterred from that. Until some guy runs into her and nearly breaks her painting and injures her hand. Now, how is she supposed to go on all of these pre-paid excursions by herself with a hurt hand?

When Daniel insists that he’s going to make up for hurting her by attending all the activities she’d planned for her supposed-to-be honeymoon, he wasn’t anticipating how much he’d like this woman. And he really wasn’t anticipating doing EXACTLY what his father wanted; falling in love.

What would she do when she discovered his true identity? And what would he do if she still loved her ex fiancé?

Jagger Family Romances are full of fun, charm and falling in LOVE!

A man who’s been hurt by love too many times. The best friend he refused to marry in his youth. She’s divorced and looking for a home. Not a home with him!

The NEWEST Jagger Family Romance is Finally HERE!


Secret Undercover Counterfeit Billionaire

Oh gosh you guys—I LOVE THE JAGGERS so much! And my new one—Secret Undercover Counterfeit Billionaire—is SOO good!

Maybe that sounds a tad like I’m the author of the book and I have too big of a head:)—But—it really comes from my heart…Steele is just so …. wonderful. He’s grown up in foster care and when he discovers that he’s a Jagger—he’s ticked off.

But—then he’s curious. He’s really curious when Mia sends him a deed to a ranch in Wyoming. The ranch that happens to be next to hers.

When he goes out there to check it out——somehow—he stumbles upon an accident with a woman who—has amnesia!

Yay! It’s a call back to the first Jagger book and I’m so excited for you to read it today!

Secret Undercover Counterfeit Billionaire
Nobody knew he was a Jagger... He didn't even know until the attorney showed up. Until he was informed he could be a Billionaire. Until ... he was told he had to get married in a year to have any claim on the money!

Steele Grey wasn't used to being told what to do. He'd grown up in foster care and he didn't need ANYONE or ANYTHING if he didn't create it or find it. He'd made his money on grit and sweat and the good old-fashioned grace of God.

After the bombshell news dropped he was a Jagger ... if he wanted to be. The attorney clarified that NONE of the other siblings even knew of his existence ... and they wouldn't know if he chose not to tell them. It wasn't a hard choice, he didn't need some prissy billionaires in his life, even if they were his half-siblings. They were probably jerks anyway! And he really didn't need to find a wife. He didn't need to have anyone close to him who could let him down.

Yet, when Mia Jagger shows up out of the blue and tells him she found out he's her brother ... and she wants him to be part of the Jagger Family... he's speechless! But the clock is ticking on the billions ... does he want to be part of this whole 'finding true love' thing or not?

**Excerpt from Secret Vanlife Undercover Billionaire: Jagger Family Romances:**
Vince asked, “So what brings you this way?”

Sam hesitated.

Tara wondered the same thing. She’d been so preoccupied with getting to work and worrying about getting murdered that she hadn’t asked anything about him.

“Oh,” Sam said, shifting his weight from one foot to the other. “Well, I wanted to do the whole van life thing that’s so popular right now, and I was heading to Colorado when I met Tara.”

Vince gave him a quizzical look. “Really? In this weather?”

Tara laughed nervously. “Yeah, this isn’t the best place to be in December.”

Sam turned to her and cocked an eyebrow. “Good thing I was coming this way so I could save a damsel in distress.”

Tara didn’t like him using those words, even though she’d used them herself. “I can say that about my situation, but you can’t.”

Sam grinned wider, and Tara again admired how handsome he was.

Vince cleared his throat. “Tara called herself a damsel, eh? That’s a first.”

Tara glared at Vince, feeling put on the spot. She nudged him. “You don’t call me that, either.”

Vince laughed. “Oh no, that’s out of the box. I’m using it.”

Vince was a huge tease, and Tara couldn’t help but laugh with him. After all, it was nice to see him laugh. But she shook her head for good measure. “No.”

Vince laughed even more and turned to Sam. “I can’t believe she said that about herself.”

“Yep, she said it.”

Tara stomped her foot. “You’re taking it out of context and you know it.”

Sam grinned. “Maybe a little.”

Vince laughed again. “I like him.” 

Tara’s heart rate sped up. Since she was no longer preoccupied with trying to get to work, she could finally focus on how cute he really was. No, he wasn’t just cute. This was a full-on manly man. “But where were you going in Colorado?”

Sam shrugged. “I thought I’d spend the month in the Denver area. Maybe do some skiing. Since I have the van, I can stop anywhere, really.”

Vince grunted. “But it’s too cold to live in a van.”

Vince was right. Sam must be crazy.

“Probably right,” Sam said with a sigh. “I’ve only been on the road a month. Since …” He hesitated.

Tara eyed him curiously, waiting for him to finish the thought.

“What’s that, son?” Vince asked.

Sam glanced away. “My dad passed away a couple months ago, and to say that things kind of went sideways in my family is putting it mildly.” He shook his head. “Anyway, I wanted to live the van life for a bit. My way to escape all my problems, I guess.”

Tara’s heart softened. Reflexively, she tried to push away her feelings of concern. She couldn’t get involved in someone else’s problems. Her mother was always telling her that was her downfall—caring too much about others. Which was a funny thing for her mother to say, since she stretched Tara’s compassion time and again. “I’m sorry.”

Vince looked the man up and down. “I’m sorry too.”

Sam blinked and then frowned. “Thanks.”

Tara wasn’t sure what to make of his vulnerability. He was so rough and tough on the exterior, and he’d been so commanding and in control when he’d demanded that she give him her gun, yet now it seemed like there was a lot more to this story.

No. She had to stop. She couldn’t care.

Vince peered into the parking lot. “So that’s your van out there?”

“Yep. That’s what I’ve been calling home for the past couple of months.” Sam looked around. “By the way, I like the place. Looks like you’ve done a lot of work.”

That’s all it took for Vince to dive into his own story. “The building is old, but the structure is good. Of course, when my wife and I retired out here fifteen years ago, it was a dump, but she convinced me to open a restaurant.”

Sam nodded, glancing between Tara and Vince. “Well, I like it.”

Vince laughed and swiped at his eyes. “Here, Sam, come with me and we’ll get you seated. My wife always said God had prepared this place for us, because we come from back east. I didn’t believe her at first, but since she passed, I haven’t been able to leave.”

The three of them walked toward the back booths. Tara was surprised that Vince was spilling all of these details to a guy he’d just met. Yet she was more surprised at how natural it felt to have Sam here. It was strange.

“I’m so sorry to hear about your wife,” she heard Sam say.

“Thank you. Anyway,” he said gruffly, gesturing to a booth, “take a seat. It’s funny, because I’ve had people say we were blessed to buy this building. I used to tell my wife that yes, God blessed us, but you should have seen the shape it was in before we fixed it up.”

Sam laughed as he sat down, and Tara didn’t know why that took her off guard. Maybe it was because only minutes ago, she’d wondered if he was a serial killer who would drag her body off into the desert somewhere.

Vince narrowed his eyes at Sam. “Do you believe in God, Sam?”

Sam shrugged. “Sure.”

“That doesn’t sound convincing.”

Tara let out a light laugh. “Vince, will you leave the guy alone? Trying to pin him down about if he believes in God. He just helped me out. You don’t need to give him the Spanish Inquisition.”

Vince grinned and glanced at Tara. “True. What can Tara get you to drink, Sam?” He grabbed a menu and put it in front of Sam. “You can mull that over.”

99¢ Feel Good Beach Romance Collection!


Only 99¢ The Beach with a Billionaire Collection: 6 Sweet Christian Contemporary Romances

You know that, as an author, I have MANY favorite books that I’ve written. This might seem like I’m bias—but I LOVE my books:)….Hahaha, probably because I get so caught in up their lives and the funny things they do or say.

But—The Dream Groom—stands out as one of my VERY favorites of all time.

And that one is in this 99¢ Collection today.

I think the biggest reason I really like the Dream Groom—is because Scar, the main character, is so broken. He is a professional football player who is more of a practice dummy—in the moment of this book. He got taken out of being a SEAL because of an injury. His family is a mess, etc. But—in this book—he meets back up with his brother and has a lot of healing. I love that.

Plus—he meets Shayla—who he affectionately calls Kansas.—And—she’s out in CA waitressing and pursuing her dream.

—When she has a stalker—it gets Scar all worked up and it’s so fun to watch how he wants to protect her.

Enjoy this whole collection!

Excerpt from The Dream Groom:
Her phone rang. Without looking, she knew who it would be as she answered. “Hello?”

Hesitation. “Hey.”

It was funny to her that there was a familiarity already. “I don’t even know your name.”

“I know,” he said. “I don’t know yours either. I’ve named you Kansas in my head.”

Liking that he’d been thinking of her, she smiled. “My name’s Shayla Castle.”

“Okay, your real name doesn’t disappoint either.”

This pleased her, which was stupid. “Okay, so what’s yours?”

“Brandon Walker. My friends call me Scar.”

She bit back the obvious question. “Your name is nice, too.”

“Another story for another night,” he said.

“What?”

“You want to know about my scar. I’ll tell you another time.”

It put her on edge thinking this would be a normal thing, them talking. She hated how much she actually liked that idea.

He let out a quick exhale. “I wanted to check on you. How’s it going?”

“Thanks. I’m fine. You could have texted.”

“Nah. We have this thing happening.” His voice was soft.

“We do?” She found herself smiling.

“Yeah, we do.”

Neither of them spoke for a few seconds.

“Well, thank you,” she said, her heart pounding. The mystery of that scar still taunted her.

“What are you doing?” His words were stilted, and his discomfort made her relax more.

“I’m arguing the merits or justification that Juliet had for killing herself when she thought Romeo was dead.”

For a beat, he didn’t answer, like he was weighing his response on his tongue. “She was stupid. Plain and simple. Life is precious. Killing herself was a huge waste.”

Shayla disagreed. “She was in love. She was heartbroken.”

He barked out a laugh. “Life is worth more than love. She was reckless. She was too young to be messing around with a thug like Romeo. He shouldn’t have married her in the middle of the night. He would have gotten his throat cut if her father had known. That’s why he did it in the cloak of darkness.”

That was a valid argument, actually. She smiled. “Cloak of darkness, really? Should I put that in my paper?”

“Hey, I won’t complain if you feel the need to quote me.” His voice had gone husky.

Intrigued, she pushed aside her laptop and leaned against the back of her bed, thinking how this was getting interesting. “Why can’t you tell me about the scar now?”

He sighed. “You have no filter, do you, Kansas?”

The way he said “Kansas” sounded so good. Feeling a bit bad, she shook her head. “I’m sorry.”

“It’s fine. Seriously, another night. Let’s talk about your paper.”

“Sure.” She went back to the topic, even though she really wanted to know now. “Juliet had pledged her dying love to Romeo. Juliet trusted Romeo.”

“Still stupid and childish.”

“Was it? Because by Romeo’s actions we see that Romeo loved and trusted Juliet. He didn’t let it stand. She didn’t die by herself. He died too.”

He grunted. “So sacrifice for love is always worth it?”

“Always,” she said softly, feeling more convinced as she said it. “That’s why it was pretty awesome you jumped in to help me even though I don’t deserve it and you didn’t know me.”

“But I didn’t love you,” Scar pointed out. He said it so bluntly, she was thrown off balance. “I jumped in because I believe in humanity, goodness, honor, and duty.”

She found herself liking this man. A lot. “Love of country before love of self.”

“You do what’s right because it’s the right thing to do,” he said. “I had SEAL guys who proved that to me. Over and over.”

Her respect for him went up a notch. “You’re a SEAL?”

He cleared his throat. “Was. Got shot. Discharged with honors. I had the option of being regular military but turned it down.”

“What do you do currently?”

“Play football for the Texas Titans.”

This was unreal. She wasn’t really into football, but Jason had loved the Titans. “You play professional football?”

He scoffed. “I pretty much just get throttled most of the time. I’m on the practice team.”

She considered what SEALs did, then tried to imagine what it was like on the practice team. “So you’re obviously masochistic.”

He laughed.

“What are you doing in San Diego?”

He cleared his throat. “I’m actually in San Diego for three to four weeks working on a project to design a facility for military vets. It’s a program that focuses on helping vets through sparring. There will also be counselors to help them and a coffee shop where they can hang out. No one would show up just to be psychoanalyzed, but if we can get them in for sparring and socializing, we can really help the ones who need it.”

She cleared her throat. “I have to admit I’m a bit intimidated by you.”

“No,” he said, sounding shocked. “Don’t be.”

“How old are you?” she blurted, regretting the words as soon as they tumbled out. “Sorry, the no filter thing.” She cringed, knowing she sounded like an idiot and was grateful for the distance of the telephone while talking to him.

“Ah, you’re breaking my heart already, Shayla.”
Her heart rate kicked up a notch. Was he going to answer the question?

“I’m twenty-eight,” he said. “How old are you?”

“Twenty-one.”

He sighed. “Is that okay with you?”

Feeling uncertain, she said, “Yeah, that’s fine. I mean, whatever. It’s not like we’re dating or anything.”

He chuckled, a wonderful sound. “That dispels any intentions I had.”

Butterflies rushed through her and she knew she’d be blushing. Checking the time, she saw it was almost eleven-thirty. “I gotta go. Paper is due by midnight, and I still have to finish it.”

“Okay,” he said. “Can we talk tomorrow?”

Happiness surged through her. She pushed it away, not wanting to think it meant anything. He was way too old for her. “Sure.”

“Well, then, I’ll talk to you tomorrow.”

What do you do – when you find a dead man's phone? Not just a dead man's phone, but a phone filled with messages from the woman who still loves him? And when you try to give it back ... she yells at you!

Blaze Cross doesn't want drama. He doesn't do drama. In fact, he normally doesn't even do people. He's a small town veterinarian, who specializes in horses. When he goes to Kentucky to meet with a horse dealer who might know something about the Conquistador Gold, he picks up a stray phone on the ground. One he means to get back to the owner, until he's searched by drug dogs at the airport. Later, when the phone keeps going off, he finds himself reading messages. Messages he shouldn't be reading, but can't stop.

Eden Cappa doesn't want to be stuck in grief. It's been almost a year since her husband passed and between her time in a hospital to get help and the time she spends defending herself to her family that she REALLY is okay, all she wants to do is get away from it all. But she never expected to lose the phone. The only thing that's kept her connected to the man she loved. The only thing thing that allows her to still hear his voice.

When Blaze and Eden find themselves thrown together to help out a giant Husky dog, something starts to happen between them. Something that this horse vet never anticipated; he starts to fall in love.

Will discovering the secret Blaze has kept from her take away all chances of them being together?
Will Eden's history with the Conquistador Gold be the next clue in the puzzle ... or will they team up and find it together?

As the Cross siblings get tested, they find they have to do the one thing their father always wanted them to do; trust each other and protect the land that is their legacy.

FREE!! – Porter
★★★From USA Today Best-selling Author, Taylor Hart--what could go wrong with a fake marriage and a hunt for Conquistador Gold?

After the death of their father, six siblings are upset the family ranch in Wyoming was left solely to their oldest brother, Porter Cross. He's been on bad terms with the family for fifteen years and their father's wishes feel like a betrayal to the rest of the siblings. But the possibility of a cache of conquistador gold being stashed somewhere begins to unite them. The trickiest part of the whole situation is that Porter has to get married or the ranch will be lost to everyone.

What do you do – when you find a dead man's phone? Not just a dead man's phone, but a phone filled with messages from the woman who still loves him? And when you try to give it back ... she yells at you!

Blaze Cross doesn't want drama. He doesn't do drama. In fact, he normally doesn't even do people. He's a small town veterinarian, who specializes in horses. When he goes to Kentucky to meet with a horse dealer who might know something about the Conquistador Gold, he picks up a stray phone on the ground. One he means to get back to the owner, until he's searched by drug dogs at the airport. Later, when the phone keeps going off, he finds himself reading messages. Messages he shouldn't be reading, but can't stop.

Eden Cappa doesn't want to be stuck in grief. It's been almost a year since her husband passed and between her time in a hospital to get help and the time she spends defending herself to her family that she REALLY is okay, all she wants to do is get away from it all. But she never expected to lose the phone. The only thing that's kept her connected to the man she loved. The only thing thing that allows her to still hear his voice.

When Blaze and Eden find themselves thrown together to help out a giant Husky dog, something starts to happen between them. Something that this horse vet never anticipated; he starts to fall in love.

Will discovering the secret Blaze has kept from her take away all chances of them being together?
Will Eden's history with the Conquistador Gold be the next clue in the puzzle ... or will they team up and find it together?

As the Cross siblings get tested, they find they have to do the one thing their father always wanted them to do; trust each other and protect the land that is their legacy.

**Excerpt:**
It was fun to flirt. “Is this your act? The mysterious cowboy from out of town.”

“What would I need an act for?”

That made her smile. He was confident enough that he didn’t understand why he would pretend to be anything but himself. “An act for the ladies. To make them interested in you. Don’t they have, like, a whole dating system built around being all mysterious? I think I watched a Netflix documentary on it.”

He chuckled. “I wouldn’t know the first thing about that. But—not to change topics—you like watching documentaries about dating?”

She laughed. “No. I mean, yes. There was this whole thing with a guy I follow who was in it, so I guess I did watch a documentary on dating.”

He leaned in, putting his elbows on the table as he grabbed another chip. “I watch documentaries on animals and the world wars and stupid stuff with my brothers all the time. Random things like snakes and conspiracies.”

She had no desire to talk about dating, so she pounced on this new topic. “What conspiracies?”

He took a bite of the chip. “There’s this one about Rattlesnake Ranch in Utah. A guy did a whole documentary on it. It delves into the supernatural. He brought this team together, and they studied these crazy incidents that have happened where all the machines on the farm have been moved. They found old body remains in a basement and stuff like that.” He looked a tad embarrassed. “Not that I believe that stuff, but it’s fun to watch.”

“I’ve never heard of that documentary.”

“You should watch it.”

She grinned. “Maybe. So tell me more about your family.”

“You want to hear about my five crazy brothers and my little sister?”

“That is a big family.”

“Yes, it is.”

“You met Frankie and his bad attitude. I think I deserve to hear about your crazy brothers.”

Blaze laughed. “I don’t know why Frankie doesn’t like me.”

“He doesn’t like anyone.”

“I can understand that. He’s protective of his sister.”

She nodded, conceding to that idea. “A bit more than protective, I would say, but yes.”

“That would be okay if I was a psycho, but he treated me like I should be put in jail for parking in his spot.”

She giggled. “Don’t worry about Frankie. He’s always been suspicious of people, and he likes to start a fight.”

“Thanks. But I won’t lie. Going into that café is intimidating.”

“Yet I still saw you today.”

His eyes turned serious. “Maybe I don’t go for your brother.”

There it was: electricity and attraction pulsing through her. She couldn’t help but twirl a strand of hair around her finger. She didn’t know what to say. “Well, the coffee is good.”

Blaze cocked an eyebrow. “Yeah, but there are lots of places I could get coffee.”
Fine. If this man wanted to tango, then she would tango. “Then why do you go?”
He hesitated, and he was saved by the server putting their food on the table. Her meal was steaming, but she wasn’t just happy about the food. Blaze wasn’t as calm and collected as he appeared to be.

The server asked if they needed anything else, and when both of them said no, she left them to it.

Eden took a bite of her food and closed her eyes for a second. “It’s as good as I remember.” Her eyes flashed open and met his. He hadn’t taken a bite yet; he was only staring at her. “What?”

“Nothing. It’s just nice to see a woman enjoying her food.”

She couldn’t help but smile. It was stupid how silly she felt on this date. Everything the man said made her want to laugh. It was like when she’d had Tony with her.
No. She wouldn’t compare everything to Tony. That wasn’t healthy.

“What?”

She took another bite. “Nothing.”

He hesitated and then took a bite of his food. “I don’t know your expressions very well, but your face changed for a second.”

“I just love this food,” she said, uncomfortable that he’d noticed. “That’s all.”

He nodded and then smiled at her. “This is some of the best Mexican food I’ve had.”
She nodded in agreement and continued to eat. “I’m starving. I guess doing animal surgery makes you hungry.” She didn’t mention that it was easy for her not to eat. So many times over the past year, her mother had told her she needed to eat more because she looked like a skeleton. She frowned. “I wonder how Shaggy is doing.”

Blaze took a sip. “He’ll be fine, but let’s check in on him tomorrow.”

She liked that he talked about them doing it together. “Uh, yeah.”

“Okay, I shared about Rattlesnake Ranch. Why don’t you tell me about some conspiracy you know about?” He gestured to her with his fork. “Unless you want to talk about the dating documentary again.”

“No. I don’t.” She laughed again. “I will think of some conspiracy to tell you. In the meantime, tell me what you’re doing until Saturday when the horse guy gets in town to meet with you.”

“Actually, this is what I’m doing. I mean,” he said, a slight smile on his lips, “if you’ll let me, I’ll hang out with you.”

The tension between them grew thick. Was he hitting on her? She looked down at her food. “I’m sure I don’t know what you mean.”

“Did that make you uncomfortable? I’m sorry. I just meant maybe you’d want to go to dinner tomorrow. I’m sure you’re working, but we could do something if you’re not.”
“I’m not,” she said quickly. His words were exactly what she’d needed to hear. The event was tomorrow night with everyone from the University of Kentucky. Everyone she didn’t want to see. Plus, Sharon had everything handled anyway, so she really didn’t need to be there. “Working, I mean.” She felt herself blush. She cleared her throat and stared into his aqua eyes. “I mean, I’d love to hang out. I could show you around, but I don’t know what you like to do.” She really didn’t want to take him to the places she and Tony used to go.

“Hiking,” he said. “I’d like to go hiking if you want to.”
