She applied to Search and Rescue to redeem herself. Her ex will decide if she makes the cut. Watching the career I'd built my entire identity around implode was bad enough. Crawling back to my mountain hometown of Crystal Lake? Even worse. But signing up for the local SAR team to claw back some dignity — only to immediately face-plant at the boots of Cole Harper? That’s just the universe getting creative with my suffering. Turns out, Cole is the SAR team leader. He is also the man who shattered my heart seven years ago without a single word of explanation. He’s broader now, bossier, and looks criminally good in a Henley. To earn my place on the team, I have to train under his command, trust him with my life, and pretend that being roped to the man who destroyed me isn't slowly dismantling all my defenses. Somewhere between the cave extractions, dangerous rock climbing, the late-night debriefs, and the way he says my name like that, Cole is getting under my skin again. For a guy who walked away without looking back, Cole keeps finding ways to help me when he thinks I won’t find out. And I'm starting to wonder if there's more to why he left than the version I've been telling myself for the last seven years. The sharp wit and spice of Ali Hazelwood meets the action of Nora Roberts and Susan Stoker in this steamy second-chance romance about proving your worth and discovering you never had to.

This new attraction confuses the naive, sheltered duke's daughter, but Mabel is determined to have her.

On the day of the wedding, he receives an interesting offer from her new husband.The Erotic Discipline of Mrs Dartry can be read as a standalone, but it is recommended to read Mrs Dartry’s Carnal Awakening first.

Her life depends on keeping magic hidden. His depends on uncovering it. When a mysterious spell binds them together, the distance between them becomes deadly.RIVERThe ancient spell that keeps our kind hidden is fading. My youngest sister has come into her power without the mark that would tell us what kind of witch she is, and a strange magic is stirring in our small town of Hearthwick, threatening to draw the Assembly’s unwanted attention.Then Hunter arrives, and the moment I meet him, my magic reacts.Stranger still is the way Hunter looks at me—like he’s been searching for me. Beneath the unease is something even harder to explain: the impossible feeling that I already know him.I might have believed it meant something good if Hunter hadn’t come to Hearthwick determined to prove that witches exist.When a spell I don’t understand binds us together, keeping my distance becomes dangerous. As the weeks pass, I begin to realize how much Hunter is hiding too. The magic may be forcing me to stay close to him, but it can’t explain why I’ve stopped wanting to leave.HUNTERMy family has been searching for witches for generations, and the moment I touch River Thorne, I feel it: recognition. I’m close to finally proving that magic exists.River offering to let me stay with her and her sisters in the apartment above their confectionery makes no sense. We barely know each other. Still, I take the opportunity to get closer to her, to learn her secrets, because my dad is running out of time.The closer I get to River, the more my reasons for being here start to blur. I find myself watching the way she moves, the way she takes care of everyone before taking care of herself, and the way being near her starts to feel like something I don’t want to lose.If things were different, I might be able to let myself want her. Instead, the crows are gathering, and the cold, skittering feeling under my skin is getting harder to control. Seven generations of my family couldn’t escape this. Why should I be any different?Tropes: witches, dark magic, and curses · the ultimate forced proximity · slow burn to open-door spice · found family · forbidden romance · magical bond · small-town romance

How would you live your life if you believed any day could be your last? Having the same genetic mutation that took both her mother and grandmother, Birdie Rose Hawkins meets her thirty-seventh birthday with the grim belief that this year will also be her last. While she normally spends her days living by lists, rules, and routines—alone—she starts her final year doing something she never does: having a one-night stand with a handsome stranger named Bo. When Bo fatefully reappears in her life, this time carrying baggage of his own, it’s with an offer of friendship. Rather than doing what she thinks will keep her safe, he, along with the few people she has in her life, teaches her how to lean into the things that scare her. But the more time they spend together, the harder it becomes for them to ignore the connection they’ve had since that very first night. When a secret is exposed and threatens to destroy everything they’ve built, Birdie has to decide if she wants to survive like she always has or trust in the unknown that comes with truly living.

For twenty-five years, Annie Bloom and Nate Sadler have been everything to each other—best friends, confidants, constants. There’s just one line they’ve never crossed. They were never supposed to fall in love. As a viral proposal planner, Annie knows exactly how to create unforgettable love stories. But when Nate asks for her help planning the perfect proposal to his girlfriend, Annie is forced to confront a truth she’s spent years avoiding: being “just friends” with him is no longer enough. Then the proposal goes spectacularly wrong. Now Nate’s heartbreak is public, Annie’s business is on the line, and the carefully constructed boundaries between them begin to unravel. Because after one drunken night changes everything, pretending nothing happened is no longer an option. But falling for your best friend isn’t just risky—it’s dangerous. And this time, Annie might lose more than her heart. She might lose the one person she’s never been able to live without.
