A Billionaire Baby Romance

The end of summer is approaching. But it’s not just any summer. It’s the one after high school graduation. My friends are busy preparing to go off to college. But not me. I’m staying home in Eugene, living with my parents while I work myself into an early grave. 

Culinary school is my dream. But it’s thirty grand. I don’t have a scholarship. My parents aren’t rich. They have four children and lots of debt. Without a college fund, my choices are limited. Or so I thought.

I’ve had a crush on Holt Bennett since I was twelve. My fantasies have included many different scenarios over the years, evolving from preteen silliness to eighteen-year-old sophistication. But never in my wildest dreams, did I ever imagine what happened last night.

A best friend’s brother, bully, enemies to lovers romance.

Lacey Jones has the next twenty years of her life planned out. With a promising career in computer science ahead of her, the dedicated MIT student is focused on her pursuing her goals. Dating is the last thing on her agenda as she balances a heavy course load with her position as the starting goalie for the school hockey team. 

When Lacey’s coach sweeps her off her feet, she rushes into a serious relationship, eager to keep up with her friends. The excitement of the new romance is short lived when she finds herself in an abusive situation. As she struggles to escape her controlling boyfriend, Lacey is surprised to discover that her childhood bully has become her Knight in Shining Armour.

Marty Dawson is an arrogant musclehead, picking on Lacey since they were kids. The older brother of her best friend, Marty had ample opportunities to torment her while they were growing up together in a small town in Maine. She has never forgotten the teasing and bullying from Marty during her awkward teenage years.

When Marty volunteers to be her bodyguard, Lacey soon realizes that he is interested in more than just protecting her. As her life spirals out of control, can she put the past behind her and learn to trust again? 

A steamy, contemporary, second chance romance. 

Part One

Shelby Richardson is on top of the world. With a high school diploma and a full scholarship to Columbia University, she can finally leave her poverty-stricken life in Montana and never look back. The day after graduation, she packs her bags and heads to the mountains and her summer job as a lifeguard at an indoor water park. Remington’s Reindeer Lodge is the perfect escape from her stifling, overcrowded row house, and her unpaid job as a babysitter for her seven sisters. 

When her hunky coworker takes an interest in her, Shelby is determined to resist the charms of the college senior. However, she soon discovers there is more to Alex Benson than just a playboy looking for sex. There’s only one problem. Well, two actually. Shelby’s emotionally unstable best friend wants Alex for herself. And Alex lives in Michigan, six hundred miles from New York City and Columbia University. Despite the obstacles, Shelby and Alex indulge in a summer fling that quickly progresses to a romantic relationship. Before they have a chance to profess their love for each other, an unimaginable tragedy tears them apart. Alex disappears without so much as a goodbye, leaving Shelby shattered.

Part Two

Dr. Shelby Richardson is living the life she always dreamed of. A lavish life in New York City, far away from Montana and her impoverished childhood. The deep wounds to her heart have healed, gradually disappearing under a thick layer of scar tissue. Wounds that required many hours of therapy to close. 

When Shelby finds herself dumped and fired on the same day, she vows to regroup and start her life over. Years of therapy provided her with the strength and tools to prevent another nervous breakdown. Before she can make any decisions about her future plans, she must overcome one more hurdle. The Hawaiian wedding of her best friend, Gretchen. To Blake Remington, owner of Remington’s Reindeer Lodge and best friend of Alex Benson. 

As the wedding party embarks on a five-day cruise to Hawaii, Shelby and Alex call a truce, agreeing to be civil for the sake of the bride and groom. But can they resist the sexual chemistry that still sizzles between them, even after twelve years apart? Can Shelby ever truly forgive Alex for his betrayal and learn to trust him again?

Carla Cooper had everything she ever wanted within her reach. Married to the perfect man, a wealthy handsome surgeon, her dream of being a stay-at-home mom was about to come true. But seven months into her marriage, she isn’t pregnant. When her husband leaves her for another woman, she must find a way to start her life over again. 

While attending her friend’s wedding at Martha’s Vineyard, Carla drowns her sorrows in alcohol and partakes in a wild night of sex with her best friend’s ex-boyfriend. Mitch Dawson is a great catch, but Carla isn’t ready for another relationship. And she has no intention of becoming someone’s rebound. What is it they say about the best-laid plans? 

After learning their one-night stand resulted in a pregnancy, Carla and Mitch explore their feelings for one another. As they embark on a new relationship, Carla struggles to find a way to break the news to her best friend. How will Whitney react? 

Sometimes life is cruel. Carla Cooper has always prided herself on being tough and strong. But how much can one person take before they eventually break? 

Sweet, steamy, best friend’s little sister, road trip romance.

Cheyenne Carson’s life is in a slump. After turning down a marriage proposal, she moves home to the family farm. The aspiring pastry chef is feeling discouraged over her floundering love life and nonexistent career when her brother makes her an offer she can’t refuse. A job that includes a six-week, all expense paid trip across Canada in an RV. And ten thousand dollars. 

Abraham McLean just graduated from college with a degree in marketing. The confirmed bachelor is looking forward to his first job. What could be better than getting paid ten grand to travel across Canada in a luxury RV with your best friend? 

Cheyenne

This is not how my life was supposed to go. But here I am. Back on my family’s farm, milking cows and shoveling manure. I should be in a fancy kitchen somewhere, baking five tier cakes and perfect soufflés while daydreaming about all the orgasms my husband gives me every night. But I’m not married. And I’m sexually frustrated. There’s only one man who gets my juices flowing. My brother’s best friend. I haven’t seen Abe in seven years, but I still fantasize about him. I never expected to see him again. And now I’m alone with him, on a road trip across Canada.

Abe

Life was good. I had everything I thought I needed to be happy. A college degree, a job offer in New York, a trust fund, and a different woman in my bed every night. I only answered to myself. 

Now, I’m in over my head. I was really looking forward to this trip. Six weeks in a luxury RV with my best friend, driving across Canada. One week in, and my buddy and his girlfriend had to bail. I promised I’d take care of his little sister. And I did. Last night. We agreed to a no strings, casual arrangement. I don’t do relationships. There’s only one problem. I’m falling for her.

Whitney Nelson had everything she ever wanted. She was in Washington, working for a senator favoured to win the next presidential election. Someday, she was going to be in that position. Nothing was going to get in the way of her White House dreams. 

She watched from the sidelines while her best friends adjusted to the life-changing impact of accidental pregnancy, never believing it could happen to her. Until it did.

When Whitney finds herself pregnant, alone, and unemployed, she heads to Boston to seek refuge in her friend Lacey’s spacious new home while she mourns the loss of her political career. 

She soon finds solace in the arms of an unexpected friend living in the apartment above the garage. Luke Lowery has recently moved in to watch over his friend Marty’s family while the Bruins trainer is on the road. 

Luke offers to claim Whitney’s unborn child as his own to save her from becoming ensnared in a political scandal. They embark on a fake relationship designed to fool the media, but can they pull off the lie with their own families? 

What happens when the line separating truth from fiction is singed by the heat between Whitney and Luke? 

Stella

Nate Miller was my first crush. Growing up together in a small town in Northern Michigan, I was like a little sister to him. I didn’t have a mom, so his mother stepped in and filled that void in my life. By the time I was twelve, I was madly in love with him. Or so I thought. I realize now that I’m grown up, it was probably more infatuation than love. It was totally one-sided, of course. I was a geek with acne, braces and a flat chest. Nate was a high school football star. And he was five years older than me. 

Fast forward ten years. I just completed my MBA at Stanford, and I’m back home living with my dad until I figure out what I want to do with the rest of my life. My acne and braces are gone, but I’m still a geek, and my chest is still flat. And Nate Miller wants to marry me.

Nate

I haven’t been home in two years. I’ve been too busy working as a freelance photographer in California. But after my girlfriend demanded we get married and settle down, I packed up my truck and drove home to Michigan. 

When my childhood friend offers me a last minute spot on his tv show, I know I can’t pass up the once in a lifetime opportunity. Marathon of Adventure is a reality show where contestants race across the world for a million dollar prize. There’s only one problem. I need a partner. And she has to be my wife.

A steamy, age gap romance…

Briggs

My twenty-year NHL career ended on a high with my eighth Stanley Cup ring. I thought I’d play some golf and travel while I decided what was next. Instead, I’m on my way up to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit to meet my newborn triplets. Three boys I will be raising on my own. 

I’m inexplicably drawn to the young woman in the nursery. She doesn’t know I’m here, listening to her tearful goodbye. 

I should let her go. She’s young enough to be my daughter. The sister of the psycho birth mother.  And now she’s my live-in nanny.

Layla

My life is falling apart. I’m about to be homeless. I knew it wasn't a good idea to get attached to the triplets. It’s going to break my heart to let them go. They’re the only bright spot in my dark world. 

I’m a poor, uneducated waif from the wrong side of the tracks. I don’t belong in his world. 

Briggs Westinghouse, hockey legend and billionaire entrepreneur, hired me to be the nanny to his triplets. He offered me a safe place to live, and the opportunity to be a part of my nephews’ lives.

But he already has a nanny. He wants me for himself. 

A naughty romantic comedy about an introverted man at a crossroads in his life, and the spirited young woman he picks up on the side of a Texas highway. The unlikely duo embark on a life-changing adventure filled with laughter, tears, and steamy nights. But what happens when they reach their destination, and they aren’t ready to say goodbye?

Axel

I just turned forty, stumbling headfirst into a mid-life crisis the moment I entered the dreaded decade of middle age. I’m supposed to be making this cross-country trip alone. I need the solitude to work through some stuff and get my head screwed on straight. The last thing I want is a flighty chick riding shotgun. 

Dallas

I can never go back home. I’m on the run from a life I didn’t choose. I know hitchhiking is dangerous, but I don’t have any other options. The hairy old dude driving the hearse seems harmless. His aura is clear. And he can take me all the way to Florida.

The Hitchhiker is a steamy, age gap, road trip romance, delivering a heartwarming tale of love when you least expect it. HEA guaranteed.

Kinley

I swore I’d never go back. Never step foot in that house again as long as I lived. Eighteen years have passed, but the wounds are still raw, preventing me from having the life I want.

One phone call changed everything. My mother and stepfather are dead. I’m about to inherit millions. But that’s not the reason I’m driving to Maine in my old Honda, praying it doesn’t break down on the highway.

My twelve-year-old half sister is an orphan. I didn’t even know she existed. She needs me, and I’m willing to step in and be her legal guardian. But my stepfather’s will states I have to share custody with him. 

My stepbrother. 

The guy who tormented me for the entire six years I lived with him. He hates me. The feeling is mutual. How are we going to raise a child together when we can’t even coexist in the same room without throwing out insults?

Harland

I was content with my bachelor life in New York City. Who wouldn’t be? I had a trust fund, a Park Avenue penthouse, and a successful investment firm.

I’ve never met my half sister. I don’t know anything about kids. And I have to share custody with her.

My stepsister. 

The daughter of my gold digging stepmother. I tormented Kinley until she finally ran away to live with her grandparents. Now, we’re stuck together in my ancestral home until the judge grants us permanent custody. 

A steamy rock star, age gap romance.

Hannah

When I envisioned my life at thirty, I thought I’d be married with a couple of kids, working in the family bakery alongside my mom and sisters. 

My dreams died the day I buried my mother. She succumbed to a broken heart less than a month after my father passed away, leaving me to care for an autistic sister and a twenty-year-old wild child. 

I was desperate and broke. 

Five years later, and I’m still dancing six nights a week at a seedy club, taking my clothes off for money. 

I never should’ve taken the job at the rock star’s party. 

Now, I’m stranded on his yacht.

Miles

My priorities changed during the pandemic, leaving me at 

a crossroads as I contemplate the next chapter in my life.

I have twenty-four number one hits, five Grammys, and more than enough money to live in luxury for the rest of my days.

At forty-five, I’ve accomplished all of my goals.

I never should’ve agreed to the party.

Now, I’m stranded on my yacht with a stripper.

A Friends to Lovers Romance

Alexis

I never wanted a boyfriend until I met a famous drummer. Osk was a tempo master with skilled fingers and the stamina of a bull, satisfying me like no other man could. My sister’s wedding was the perfect opportunity to take our relationship to the next level. 

When I learned Osk was bringing a date, I had to step up my game. I asked my best friend to be my pretend boyfriend for the week-long event in the remote Alaskan wilderness.

Paddy

I never could say no to my best friend. But when she asked me to be her fake boyfriend to make another man jealous, I considered turning her down. I didn’t want to spend a week watching the woman I loved chase after some guy who wasn’t worthy of her. 

I ended up accepting the invite. It was a famous rock star’s wedding. I’d known the bride since we were kids. And pretending to be Alexis’s boyfriend was my chance to show her how great things could be if we were a real couple.

A high school reunion.

Two recently widowed classmates.

One steamy night.

Jillian

I’m used to being alone. I practically raised myself, spent my twenties alone in the big city, and my thirties alone in a marriage to a workaholic. I can raise a child alone. 

The only reason I came back to this town was to settle my late grandmother’s affairs. I was invisible in high school. The awkward introvert who nobody talked to. And I let my only friend convince me to attend our twenty-year reunion.

I had a crush on the most popular boy in my class. The captain of the football team with the gorgeous cheerleader girlfriend.

And now I’m having his baby.

Ethan

I’m raising six daughters alone. I wasn’t planning on having any more kids.

I already met and married the love of my life. And I lost her.

She was sitting alone. The shy redhead with the beautiful blue eyes. 

She never socialized with anyone in high school. 

Why would she come to our reunion?

She looked as bored as I felt. 

I was drawn to her by some inexplicable force. Just like the first day of ninth grade. 

And now she’s having my baby.

I flunked out of college. I don’t have a job. I keep dating losers. But I’m happy with my life. I’m only twenty-four. I just want to have fun.

My dad freaked out after I got beat up and arrested. He thinks I need some direction in my life. I agreed to start learning the family business. One day, I will inherit his quarter of the classic car empire he built with his three best friends.

I’ve known my dad's business partners my entire life. My mother died when I was ten, leaving me to be raised by a grieving, workaholic father. The guys were there for me through my wild teenage years, doing their best to keep me out of trouble.

Dad wants me to go on a business trip with his partners. Just me and three older men. A month-long road trip to start my training. But the trip isn’t just about business. When we’re not stripping down old wrecks in fields, or attending car shows, the guys plan to court me. 

That’s right. My dad’s best friends want to marry me. And their idea of courting doesn’t involve serenading and poetry, with chaperoned dates and forbidden physical contact. They want me in their bed every night. And my dad knows all about their plans. He asked them to consider me when they started looking for a wife.

Evan is a grumpy control freak. I don’t foresee us getting down and dirty. But Jake and Garrett? I could definitely go for some threesome fun with them. Jake is a sexy mechanic with a heart of gold. And Garrett is an easy-going silver fox. 

I have no intention of marrying them. But I’m down for some steamy nights on the road. 

Taming Vada is a stand-alone, reverse harem, age gap, road trip romance filled with adventure, humour, love, tears, and sizzling hot sex. HEA guaranteed. 

A steamy enemies to lovers romance.

Gertie

The only romance in my life came from the pages of my books. It was safer that way. Writing was supposed to be my hobby. An escape from reality. Until one of my books got published. 

Fifty-eight weeks on the bestseller list and a movie deal, and I was set for life. Content to live out my days on my family’s potato farm in Idaho. 

I’m an introvert. I write under a pen name. My mother is the only person in my life who knows my secret. And I’d like to keep it that way.

I stepped far outside my comfort zone when I agreed to spend the summer on the set of the movie. The director hired me as a consultant. Not an actress. But somehow, I ended up in the movie. 

Grove

I was still in diapers when I caught my big break on a popular sitcom. Thirty-four years in Hollywood, and I’ve done it all. But I draw the line at movies based on romance novels. 

I should’ve turned down the role. Stood up to my bossy manager. 

Now I’m stuck on a remote movie set in Canada. My co-star got fired on the first day of filming. The entire project is an epic disaster. 

The author of the book is a clumsy farmer from Idaho, who dresses like a man. She doesn’t belong on the set, but the director insisted. 

The fresh Canadian air is messing with my head. There’s no other explanation for my attraction to the farm girl. 

And now she’s playing my love interest in a movie rife with steamy sex. 

I’m a professional. I know how to behave myself on the set. 

But when the cameras stop rolling, all bets are off. 

A reverse harem, age gap romance.

My best friend married three men, leaving me to fend for myself in her expensive condo. I could barely afford to live there when I was employed. And then I got fired. I was living on ramen noodles and canned beans. I’d officially hit rock bottom.

I don’t belong on this cruise. I’m not looking for a harem. And even if I was interested in finding three husbands, they wouldn’t want me. 

Why did I agree to this? A free, all-inclusive trip is pretty hard to resist when you’re hungry and depressed.

Sixteen days surrounded by happy families, and bachelors looking for a woman to warm their beds and carry their babies. There isn’t enough booze on the ship to get me through this nightmare. 

Just when I think it can’t possibly get any worse, he appears. My one-night-stand from a couple of months earlier. Except it isn’t him. The man who rocked my world in a bar bathroom is a triplet. 

And now he wants to share me with his brothers.

An age gap, cowboy romance.

Cami

My life was in shambles. I got fired, dumped and thrown from a horse all in one day. The broken bones healed, but my heart was shattered beyond repair. I lost my baby and the man I loved. 

When my best friend needed a surrogate, I stepped up. I would do anything for Dani, and preparing to carry her baby gave me a sense of purpose in my life again.

I wasn’t expecting another job offer as a nanny. Especially not from Jasper Stillwell. 

Sexy older cowboys are my weakness. 

I wasn’t supposed to have sex while my uterus was on loan…

Jasper

I was forty-two and single, living the charmed life of a bachelor. 

Until the night I found out I had a baby.

I embraced my new responsibilities as a single father, giving up the women and booze to be there for my son.

It’s not like there was an abundance of nannies available in our rural Alberta town. Cami Cartwright worked for my brother for years, raising my nieces while their mother battled cancer. She was perfect for the job. 

I promised I wouldn’t touch her…

An age gap, cowboy romance.

Miriam

I was pregnant and penniless when I ran from my privileged life. My stepdaughter whisked me away to her husband’s ranch in rural Alberta, providing me with an opportunity to raise my girls far from the patriarchal world we grew up in.

Pru failed to mention a few critical details about her life. My first night in her home, I learned that she and her husband were separated. Two days after my arrival, she took off, leaving me alone with strangers. 

The moment I met Brooks Stillwell, I knew he was my soulmate. 

The sexy CEO cowboy is off-limits. 

But only until his divorce from my stepdaughter is final.

Brooks

I was furious when my cheating, estranged wife returned home on Christmas Eve, with her stepmother in-tow. 

The young widow was broke, pregnant, and on the run from her controlling father. I already rescued a girl from that life, twenty years before. I wasn’t interested in doing it again.

I’m a sucker for a damsel in distress. Especially one who shares my love of cheese and historical romance novels. 

My strong beliefs about commitment and fidelity prevent me from acting on my attraction to Miriam. 

The beautiful mother-to-be is off-limits.

But only until my divorce is final.
