Emily was born into a world of hate, drugs, abuse, and human trafficking. She’s always worked hard to stay on the honor roll in school and to get a free ride to college. She wants nothing more than to make her way out of the life she was born into. Emily has dark secrets that she believes only her best friend Ginger Gold knows about. She’s also been crushing on the one man no one can touch: Blake Shaw, the biggest playboy in Davenport, Georgia.

Losing the love of my life the summer before we were set to go off to college together destroyed me beyond repair. James committed suicide weeks before we were to start our lives together, leaving me broken and haunted by the "what ifs" of life. There just wasn’t any way I could attend the college we chose together, and I was certain there wasn’t another option at what most would call last minute. When another University agreed to take me, I packed up my car and headed to the Sunshine state.

Falling in love with the goodie-goodie in school was never supposed to happen. Watching her in the color guard all summer long on the field during football practice makes me want her no matter what. She's the type of girl the preppy girls pick on but she's truly a beautiful girl. She keeps me at arm’s length no matter what I do. She’s convinced I’m just another stupid jock who likes to party too much and play games on and off the field. Convincing the prettiest girl in school to give me a chance forever changes the courses of our lives.

Jade: Taking my seat as head of the family at 20 was never the plan. But as luck would have it my father was killed, leaving me to take care of our family. Getting married had never been part of my plan no matter what my father had expected of me. Meeting my contract wife put me on the fast track of finding any loop-hole to get out of the deal; even if it will destroy her reputation for life. Can two people from the same world make a contract marriage into a lifetime love match?

Spending 18 summers at my Nana’s farm has been the highlight of my life. Learning how to work everything has taken many summers of trial and error, but it’s a passion. Doesn’t hurt that the Peak Farm adjoins hers, and their oldest son is just a few years older than me. He’s always helped me learn to do everything, including climbing trees and how to swim.

Tony DeLuca has to get to New York, nor'easter be damned. His older sister is getting married, and it won't matter to her if the entire East Coast is shut down if it means she's short a groomsman. She's the only reason he's willing to make the trip home to face a father who's never forgiven him for wasting a perfectly good degree to become a firefighter. And that's only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to everything about Tony that his father will never accept.

I said goodbye to my son. But he had one final request - a letter I'll never forget. "Dear Dad, If you're reading this, it means I'm gone. I had one dream, growing old with Holland. Death won't stop me from providing for my wife....Please take care of Holland. Take her back to California with you. It's a lot - I know. But, I'm placing my most precious possession in your hands. Love, Scott." But the thoughts swirling through my mind are certainly not what my late son had in mind. How do I resist this woman in front of me? After all, you can't choose love, it chooses you.  

From the time I was a little girl, I knew I was going to follow in my father’s footsteps. The art form of tattooing always intrigued me, and it became my life’s goal to put my work on other people’s bodies. My blank slates as I called them, ready and waiting for me to help the individual express themselves. I’m fully tatted and pierced and I love myself the way I am and will not change that for anyone. I had tried my hand at love once before, but it didn’t turn out very well, so I gave up and concentrated on making my shop successful.

Sabrina Willow is a marketing executive with her life in order, except for her love life - it’s awful. Every blind date is a mess, and the last man stood her up. That was until she met the bull rider in the bar. Both are drowning their sorrows in a bottle of tequila, and one night of drunken sex will change their lives forever.

I knew within moments of meeting Mason Holt that he would change my life forever. I just didn't realize how much. As my world spirals out of control, he continues to stay by my side, protecting and taking care of me. Being just friends is all he's been able to offer, that is until both of our lives are threatened. Now that our relationship is blossoming into something more, I can't be what he needs even if I wished I could. 

My husband, in a rage, hit me in front of the wrong person. Diego, or Kincaid to most, beat the hell out of him for it. I left with Diego anyway. Even though he could turn on me just like my husband did, I knew I had a better chance of survival with Diego. That was until I realized Kincaid could hurt me so much worse than my husband ever could. Physical pain pales in comparison to troubles of the heart.  

Fresh off a divorce from a Hollywood hotshot, Madison Atwood needs an escape. With the paparazzi fresh on her heels and her love life splashed on every tabloid, she runs away to a swanky retreat in Northern California. Avalon Springs is the mountainside haven she needs to find herself again. Luke Dawson lives off the grid, preferring solitude to society. When he finds a beautiful woman soaking in the hot springs on his property, he can't stop himself from watching her. She captures his attention, but she's just a city girl - a beautiful distraction disturbing the peace.

I'm making strides in the world of dirt late model racing. With back-to-back championships under my belt, I'm determined to win a third and be the youngest driver in history to do so. I'm going to make it happen. My career is my focus. That is until the ultimate distraction in the form of a redheaded bombshell drops into my life.

Noah Sinclair is best described as an egotistical, pompous, anal retentive, asshat. And those are his better qualities. Lately, Noah has lost touch with his playboy character “Jace” on the show Americana and can't quite put his finger on why. The studio decides it is time to shake up his character by making him an offer he can't refuse, literally. They will introduce a new love interest for his character “Jace”. Only this time, there's a twist.

A faceless name. That's all she was when I agreed to play a part in deceiving her. And then the unexpected happened. We met. I yearn for her skin against mine. I crave her scent on my body. I want to make her laugh and then moan. And I do...in secret. I promised my business partner I wouldn't touch his sister. But I broke that promise. Our little dirty weekends together are no longer enough. I want my bohemian girl in my bed every night. She wants a ring, marriage vows, and babies...all things that I can't give her. Our romance is explosive. Our ending, miserable...unless I bend.
