Book Description
It takes more than a doctor to mend a broken heart. Ollie Warne is fresh out of nursing school and working his dream job as a pediatric cardiology nurse at St. Cross Children's Hospital. Wanting to start the year fresh from personal heartache and his track record of falling for the wrong man, Ollie's New Year's resolution is to rid himself of emotional baggage and live a life of carefree liaisons. But before the resolution can even begin, Ollie is called to care for eight-year-old Daisy Monroe, who's struggling after heart surgery. Her father, Jacob Monroe, never leaves her side, apart from the times her mother comes to visit. The tempestuous and somewhat estranged relationship of her parents is cause for concern enough, but the father's brooding nature has Ollie investing far more time than usual in his Room One patient. Striking up a friendship of sneaking takeaways into the ward, card playing until dawn and the occasional breaking up of domestic fights, Ollie finds himself drawn to Jacob and becomes a friendly ear for the man who's harboring more guilt and past demons than even Ollie, which is saying something. The growing attraction makes it hard for Ollie to keep his distance, though he has to—not only do the ethics of his profession demand it, but Ollie is still somewhat involved with another man. One who has a huge stake in Ollie's life, both personal and professional. Ollie is risking more than just his job by getting involved with a patient's father—much more even than the success of his New Year's resolution, something that was supposed to ensure that, this time, he won't feel a thing.

Book Description
You know that office bromance: two of a kind, always taking their lunch together, always wearing the same sly grin. Only ever a hair away from a cold joke about how spreadsheets are a living hell; about taking a bullet if it means going home early on Friday. Sometimes in these fantasies, they’re heroes being hauled out on a stretcher. Sometimes they’re the ones pulling the trigger. Now, say these guys discover a loophole that makes some days less real than others—less permanent—and start to act out their violent fantasies without fear of reprisal. Why shouldn’t they? Tomorrow, everything will go back to normal, with no one the wiser but them. They’ll always remember what it felt like to act on their basest impulses. They’ll know how it could feel to do it again. Maybe you don’t know these guys. Maybe you don’t want to. Soft Targets is a reality-bending novella about malignant malaise; the surrender to violence; and the addictive appeal of tragedy as entertainment. Contains graphic depictions of gun violence in the workplace; caution recommended.

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 2667
Book Description
The world of New York Times bestselling author J. Kenner is at your fingertips! This essential ebook bundle compiles three of her sensational trilogies: The Stark Trilogy, featuring Damien Stark, a powerful man who’s used to getting his way; the Most Wanted series, starring a trio of captivating alpha males; and the Stark International Trilogy, which introduces the notorious and alluring Jackson Steele. That’s nine novels full of dominant bad boys, decadent seduction, and steamy thrills—as only J. Kenner could imagine them. Also includes a preview of the first book in J. Kenner’s hotly anticipated new trilogy, Dirtiest Secret! The Stark Trilogy: RELEASE ME | CLAIM ME | COMPLETE ME He was the one man I couldn’t avoid. And the one man I couldn’t resist. Damien Stark could have his way with any woman. He was sexy, confident, and commanding: Anything he wanted, he got. And what he wanted was me. Our attraction was unmistakable, almost beyond control, but as much as I ached to be his, I feared the pressures of his demands. Submitting to Damien meant I had to bare the darkest truth about my past—and risk breaking us apart. But Damien was haunted, too. And as our passion came to obsess us both, his secrets threatened to destroy him—and us. Forever. The Most Wanted Series: WANTED | HEATED | IGNITED Three men, three seductive novels: Evan Black embodies her every fantasy: brilliant, fierce, devastatingly handsome—and burdened with secrets. But there are some temptations she just can’t fight. Tyler Sharp always gets what he wants. She thought she was the one woman strong enough to resist him, but one touch and she was hooked, one night and she became his. Cole August promised to take her as far as she could go—and she wanted to go to the edge. Not many women can handle his past, but something about him beckons her to play the game of desire. The Stark International Trilogy: SAY MY NAME | ON MY KNEES | UNDER MY SKIN I never let anyone get too close—but he’s the only man who’s ever made me feel alive. Meeting Jackson Steele was a shock to my senses. Confident and commanding, he could take charge of any room . . . or any woman. And Jackson wanted me. The mere sight of him took my breath away, and his touch made me break all my rules. Our bond was immediate, our passion untamed. I wanted to surrender completely to his kiss, but I couldn’t risk his knowing the truth about my past. Yet Jackson carried secrets too, and in our desire we found our escape, pushing our boundaries as far as they could go. Learning to trust is never easy. In my mind, I knew I should run. But in my heart, I never felt a fire this strong—and it could either save me or scorch me forever. Praise for the novels of J. Kenner “Kenner may very well have cornered the market on sinfully attractive, dominant antiheroes and the women who swoon for them.”—RT Book Reviews “[An] immensely satisfying series . . . The roller coaster events of Complete Me give this novel a page-turning quality.”—Heroes and Heartbreakers “A steamy story with a dark edge. Recommended for those seeking crime drama with spice.”—Library Journal, on Heated “Red-hot and angsty . . . Kenner keeps readers guessing.”—Publishers Weekly, on Under My Skin This eBook bundle is intended for mature audiences.
