He was off limits… but that only made me want him more.
Jaran Iverson was my brother’s best friend and my first love.
But the day after my eighteenth birthday, he left our small town without so much as a goodbye.
Five years later, he’s back, asking for a second chance and expecting the three of us to pick up right where we left off.
Only, I’m older now and far too smart to fall for those soft smiles and sultry eyes.
After years of working through the destruction he left behind, the last thing I need is to fall back in love with the boy who broke my heart.
Mia Carter was everything to me—bright, funny, forbidden.
So when she kissed me one drunken night and begged me to take her innocence, I almost gave in.
The only girl I’d ever wanted was on her knees in front of me.
The problem?
She was my best friend’s kid sister.
The next day, I packed my shit and left town, doing everything in my power to forget her.
Now I’m back and ready to claim what’s always been mine.
Except, this strong-willed, independent vixen isn’t the little Mia I once knew.
She’s the woman I can’t have… but that only makes me want her more.

Amanda is a mom of four and military wife living wherever the government dictates. She squeezes in writing time between mountains of laundry, taxi-mom duties, and stuffing her face with carbs. She never turns down a strong margarita, her husband’s cooking, or a good Netflix binge.


Loren Beeson is an indie author with miles of imagination. She is a dreamer, artist, and radiologic technologist who loves all things romance. Always writing short stories as a young child and young adult, she knew she wanted to become an author someday. Horses are her muse while drawing, and writing is her escape from the real world. She’s a lover of Flaming Hot Cheetos and smutty romance novels, and occasionally has a glass of wine or two… or four.

Loren can be found in her cozy home in Texas with her nose in a book, her corgi and mini-Aussie on her lap, and her son trailing along with her and her husband through their many adventures.

𝑱𝑨𝑿

For three years I held our fight against him.

For three years I hated simply hearing his name.

Now Jason Malone was back in town. Back home with one mission; fix what he broke.

As if I hadn’t learned from my past mistakes, that night I made another. This one more forbidden—prohibido—than the rest, and the aftermath threatened to divide our familias forever.

𝑱𝑨𝑪𝑬

Best friend’s little sisters should remain in the no-touching zone. And most definitely in the no-banging zone. And Jax was… until the night I returned from the city.

Things were different now. I had changed and she had grown up.

I should have grovelled for her forgiveness, then backed away. Not caved to temptation and crossed lines.

The fallout hit—one thing after another, and in the midst of our chaos, I fell for the girl who had always been off-limits.

“Seriously amazing! One of the best books I’ve ever read.”-S.E. Rose, USA Today Bestselling Author

“Passionate, romantic, intriguing and extremely hard to put down! A classic retold perfectly.”-Ria/ Reading is Our Satisfaction Blog

“Seriously amazing! One of the best books I’ve ever read!” —S.E. Rose, USA Today bestselling author
A steamy and twisty contemporary retelling of Jane Eyre from USA Today bestselling and #1 Amazon all-star author, Nelle L’Amour.
When legendary actress Edwina Rochester offered me a job to be the nanny of her five-year-old goddaughter, I didn’t expect to end up living at Thornhill, her infamous Hollywood mansion. The site of a kidnapping, suicide, and possible murder.
Nor did I expect to fall in love with my charge’s devastatingly handsome father, Ward Rochester. A man who’s totally off limits and is hiding a secret.
As my feelings for him deepen, strange, frightening sounds start coming from the room next to mine. My most intimate possessions go missing. And someone’s leaving me notes, threatening my life.
Should I trust the mysterious, mercurial Mr. Rochester? My heart tells me yes. But my brain tells me run.
The problem, reader, is I have no place to go. And I cannot resist him.
Will I get the happily ever after I’ve always longed for? Or will I be the next victim of The Curse of Thornhill?

Title: Scandalous Little Obsession
Series: Lake State University Series #5
Author: Rachael Brownell
Genre: College Romance, Forbidden Relationship
Release Date: May 12, 2022
I’m the youngest but that doesn’t mean I’m naive. That I can’t take care of myself.

Or go after what I want.
Which is exactly what I plan to do, no matter how many times my brother tries to stand in my way. This is my life, not his. He may be afraid to let me go, but I’m not scared of spreading my wings and flying.
Of rising from the ashes.
I’m tired of mourning. I’m tired of being treated as fragile. And I’m ready to start living my life again.
First thing on my list… sex.
So what if it’s my first time? Who cares if it’s supposed to be special?
I’m not looking for a relationship, I just want to lose my virginity.
I’ve even set my sights on the person I want to give it to.
His messy hair falls in his honey brown eyes, making me weak in the knees. His touch lights a fire inside me I didn’t know existed and I find myself begging to get burned. Best of all, he says he likes to fix broken things.
I’m still a little broken, and I have a few ideas how he can fix me.
The only problem… my brother’s forbidden him to come near me.
It’s a good thing sneaking around is hot.

 
 
It was like a game of cat and mouse.
I was hunting her.
She was all I could focus on. All I could see.
All I wanted to see.
Not a big deal, right?
Wrong. So very wrong.
Because if I had been paying attention, I would have seen him approach. Would have felt the hostility radiating off him in waves. Seen the look on his face and would have known to run.
But nope. That wasn’t my luck.
Instead, I was hauled away by the back of my shirt into the bathroom. Thrown against the wall. And Max was in my face, growling at me.
“Keep your eyes off my sister.” His voice is low, deep, and his eyes are wild as he takes me in.
“Your sister?” I’m not playing dumb. I honestly have no idea who his sister is unless… Fuck. “Evie’s your sister.”
It’s a statement, not a question. Realization smacks me across the face when his grip on the front of my shirt tightens. There’s a knock at the door, but Max doesn’t move to answer it, and I’m in no position to.
Another knock, this time louder, and it’s accompanied by a voice. “Max, let the poor kid go. He wasn’t doing anything.”
“He. Was. Looking. At. My. Sister.”
“And I’m sleeping with your sister.” Max’s head whips around, his eyes locking on the door as he growls, cursing under his breath. “Open the damn door, Max.”
Releasing me, Max walks over and unlocks the handle, the door opening before he can step back.
If I thought Max towering over me was scary, this guy has him beat. Max has at least five inches on me, maybe twenty pounds of muscle. This guy is huge compared to him. At least an inch taller, with broader shoulders, and bigger muscles.
And now I’m trapped in this tiny ass bathroom that smells like piss with both of them.
All because I looked at a girl. The wrong girl.
“You really want to bring that up right now?” Max asks, staring down our visitor.
I know he’s Max’s friend, but I honestly can’t tell right now. Max looks like he wants to hit him. His fists are clenched at his sides, and he’s glaring at him the same way he was glaring at me. He definitely wanted to hit me a minute ago.
I know for sure he’s not my friend. Though, he did just save my ass from Max’s wrath. And it doesn’t appear he’s scared of the death glare.
“Why not? You gave me your blessing.” So casual. As if it’s not a big deal that this guy is sleeping with his sister.
Wait!
Please tell me Max has more than one sister because if this guy is sleeping with Evie, there’s no way I stand a chance with her.
I’ve seen him before. He was in the kitchen earlier with Max. There were a bunch of guys, but I remember him being pulled away by a girl. She wasn’t Evie.
“That doesn’t mean I want to hear about it. Jesus, Finn!”
“But you heard it happening last night.” His first mistake. “I know you did. You left the ear plugs Lo bought you on the counter. And let’s face it, your sister is not quiet.” Throwing his head back and laughing is his second mistake because Max clocks him in the jaw.
 
Rachael Brownell is an International Bestselling author of new adult romance.
 
She lives in Michigan with her husband, son, snuggly dog, and hateful cat. She moonlights a few days a week (her excuse to get out of the house and socialize) and writes almost full time. Her first book was published way back in 2013 and since she’s released more than 30 additional titles.
 
When she’s not writing her next novel, you can find her hanging out with her family, watching her son play baseball, or running on the treadmill at the gym (though she skips more days than she goes). She also enjoys golfing but is still learning, so if you see her on the course… stand back.

I heard he was crazy, that his feelings were all dead.
I heard the bad things he did was because of the monster in his head.
He likes to deal out pain, reveling in his victims’ screams.
He likes breaking hearts, ripping them apart at the seams.
Everything became better, because he went away.
But none of that mattered, since a part of him stayed.
Now he’s back, looking for what he left behind.
They all whisper the same things, about his affliction of the mind.
People say he’s broken, this man Brody Landry.
But I think he’s beautiful, a perfect Prince for me.

“A gritty psychologically thriller with intrigue, some spice, and overwhelming, palpable attraction and trepidation, I was genuinely held captive the entire time.” ~Valentina
