Description:

Loving Romeo
Demi Crawford is Magnolia Falls royalty. I'm the boxer from the wrong side of the tracks. We couldn't be more different.

Her family is enemy number one, and it made her guilty by association. I despised her before I even knew her. It was easier that way.

But now she's moved in next door to me, and she's everywhere I turn. She is beautiful and honest and sweet. Everything I know I shouldn't want.

They say there's a fine line between love and hate, and I don't know when I crossed over. She is the right hook I never saw coming. But the secrets between us will threaten to tear us apart.

Lucky for her I'm a born fighter. And she is definitely worth the fight …

Wild River
Ruby Rose declared me the enemy before I had a chance to defend myself.⁣ I may be an attorney, but this girl had appointed herself judge and jury.⁣ And I’d never minded a good verbal sparring.⁣

⁣But the more we fought – the more I craved her.⁣ Until our arguing turned into a bit of a wager.⁣ One I was determined to win.⁣ One time. Sixty seconds. A secret only we would share.⁣

But from the minute we crossed the line, there was no turning back.⁣ Ruby Rose may have given me more than sixty seconds, but she wasn’t offering forever.⁣ And now my world doesn’t work without her in it.⁣

⁣But how do I convince her to stay, when she already has one foot out the door?⁣

Forbidden King
She’s the one girl I can’t have,

and the only one I want …

Saylor Woodson is my best friend's little sister, and she's completely off limits.

We have a history, a connection – one that no one else knows about. I've kept my distance for years, it was easy when she was away at school. But now she's home, and she's everywhere I turn. And the way that I want her is unexplainable.

So, I do everything in my power to keep my distance, because her brother is my best friend. My family. But the pull is too strong. I want to claim her and keep her and make her mine.

Once we cross that line in the sand, I'm drowning in this girl and can't find my way up for air. Guilt hangs over me like a dark cloud, but I can't seem to walk away, no matter how hard I try.

And now that I've had a taste of forever, I'm willing to risk everything to keep it.

Beating Heart
I wasn't looking for love, until it moved in next door …

From the moment my son came into the world – my life changed. I’d found my purpose.

My heart beats for this kid every damn day, and life is good. But then Emerson Chadwick happens. Our town’s new paediatrician is gorgeous, brilliant, and complicated.

But I’m not looking for complications.

To make matters worse, she’s moved in next door, and she’s everywhere I turn.

I can’t stay away no matter how hard I try, but Emerson isn’t here to stay. And now my heart beats for her in a way I never expected.

Falling for the girl next door is a bad idea. Loving her…well, that’s as easy as breathing.

Finding Hayes
The marriage was fake, but my feelings were real …

Savannah Abbott was my best friend growing up, and the reason I could be the best version of myself.

But then, without warning, she was gone. And my life began unravelling the day she left. My guard went up, and my ability to trust people disappeared.

But now, Savannah is back in Magnolia Falls, and she’s acting like I’m the enemy.

That is, until she needs a favour. A temporary husband …

I may fight flames for a living, but my new wife is the fire that’s been missing all along. None of this is real, we remind ourselves while we’re playing house.

But maybe, for her, I’m willing to bend the rules …
