Book Description
What do you do when an ill-mannered grump stands in the way of your best friend’s happiness? Straight-laced Emmie has the perfect solution: Distraction, play dumb and a lot of fake support calls. Easy-peasy. There’s only one downside: Emmie has to put herself directly in the line of the fire, making Jake turn his attention to the shy termagant ruining his day. But what happens when Jake sees through her shenanigans and decides it’s payback time? Particularly when he turns his revenge into a sexual battle, leaving Emmie so hot and bothered that she can’t see straight. Still, losing is never an option. Even if Emmie must step out of her comfort zone and use every dirty trick she can think of. But in the end, will she be able to tame the beast – or will he tame her? ————— “Taming the Grump - Book 2” is a steamy hot Enemies to Lovers Erotic Romance. Explicit sex scenes, no cheating. NOTE 1: This book is the second book in a series. It ends with a cliffhanger. No happily ever after (yet). NOTE 2: Explicit content. For adults only. Themes: Protector, Enemies to lovers, Happily ever after, Opposites attract, Wallflower, Grumpy, Alpha male, Fling, Love triangle, Unrequited love, Relationship coach, Last to know, Disguise, Revenge Note: This is an extended and edited version of a previously published story, “Seduction”. ————— Excerpt: “Haven’t you fixed it yet?” Irene asked as she hurried to her desk, deliberately ramping up the pressure. “Sure. It’s user-related,” Jake said in a bored tone. “No, it’s not!” Emmie said. “It’s that stupid piece of junk ruining my day.” “Man, you really need a reboot,” Jake sighed. “I’m not a man, Jake. And don’t try to blame this disaster on me!” Emmie snorted. The nerve of the man. How dare he talk to her like that? “Have fun, you two,” Irene said quickly. “I’m heading out for lunch. See you later.” She winked at Emmie as she passed her. “Thanks,” she whispered. “Okay,” Jake said as if he tried to regain his patience. “Let’s remove the clutter and start with the obvious.” He stepped closer to her. Emmie eyed him suspiciously. What was he up to now? Without saying a word, he held her waist and lifted her as if she were light as a feather. She felt his body against hers as he pulled her toward him. She gawked at him, suddenly unsure what was happening. But just as quickly, he sat her down at the far end of her desk before turning toward her computer. “I beg your pardon! You could have asked nicely instead of moving me around like furniture.” Emmie spluttered in indignation. She felt like spouting fire at the man. How dare he touch her? And with apparent ease. He’d even called her ’clutter’. How could he? Jake grinned at her, enjoying her indignation. "You took too long." "I hope you strained a muscle. Or hurt your back." Emmie glared at him as she wrapped her arms in front of her chest, gasping for breath at her unexpected treatment. She refused to acknowledge that she enjoyed being swept off her feet by this strong and handsome man. Jake roared with laughter. Emmie had seldom heard him laugh before, and she was momentarily shocked. She liked the sound of his laughter, even though it was at her expense. Jake turned and looked at her, his eyes sparkling with laughter. "Don’t count on it, Miss Precious. With a featherweight like you? I’m not a weak computer geek who can barely lift a mouse." "Says who?" Emmie challenged him. ——————

Languages : en
Pages : 277
Book Description
My grandparents’ grumpy neighbor is as hot as the lethal Florida sun. And like the sun, he’s bad for me. My taste in men is the worst—just ask my ex and his restraining order. What am I doing in Florida with my grandparents, you wonder? Well, my best friend is an octopus, and he needs a bigger tank, so I took a job at an aquarium in the Sunshine State. I didn’t expect that sexy, long-haired grump to try to buy my octopus for some nefarious purpose. Nor did I expect to make out with him during a late-night swim at the beach. And the last thing I expected was to run into him on my first day at my new job… where he’s my boss. NOTE: This is a standalone, raunchy, slow-burn romantic comedy featuring a sun-phobic marine biologist, her scorching hot grump of a boss, and an octopus who likes to go on walks in his mobile tank. If any of the above is not your cup of tea, run far, far away. Otherwise, buckle in for a laugh-out-loud, feel-good ride.

The TikTok sensation, now with new exclusive content! It’s an office romance on the ice rink in this heart melting story about love’s power not in spite of difference but because of it. Ren has known Frankie Zeferino was a woman worth waiting for since the moment they met. She’s a master of deadpan delivery, has a secret heart of gold, and a rare one-dimpled smile that makes his knees go weak. But as long as Frankie’s the team’s social media manager, she’s off limits. Frankie is a self-admittedly blunt, grumbly grump, but even she isn’t immune to sunshiney Ren Bergman. Who could be, when he’s a six-foot-three hunk of happy with a hockey player’s physique? Maybe in the past, Frankie would have gone for a guy like him, but since being burned too many times by people who learn about her diagnoses and see a problem, not a person, she’s wised up. After waiting years for the right time to make his move, Ren learns Frankie plans to leave the team to pursue a new career. But what he didn’t anticipate is how hard he’ll have to work to convince her to let him have his shot at winning her heart.

Book Description
Will Sedgwick can’t believe that after months of searching for his oldest friend, Martin Easterbrook is found hiding in an attic like a gothic nightmare. Intent on nursing Martin back to health, Will kindly kidnaps him and takes him to the countryside to recover, well away from the world. Martin doesn’t much care where he is or even how he got there. He’s much more concerned that the man he’s loved his entire life is currently waiting on him hand and foot, feeding him soup and making him tea. Martin knows he’s a lost cause, one he doesn’t want Will to waste his life on.

Book Description
Make no mistakes about it. I know what I look like to others. Young, government-aided, pregnant mom. They see Lucy on my hip, and they see a mistake. I mean, why else would someone have a child so young, right? They couldn't be more wrong. I'm too busy most days between parenting, work, and finishing up my last year of nursing school to let their judging gaze tear me down until he moves into the vacant house next to the apartments I live in.His cold, blunt observation of us doesn't differ from any other stranger. He doesn't know me, but he's already painting a picture of who he thinks I am in his mind. He judges my very round belly, Lucy's inability to leave him alone, the bags under my eyes, and the fact that I couldn't care less what I look like anymore.He's a rude guy. Stays that way for months too. Then something happens, I'm not even sure what. Judgmental Guy decides Lucy and me-as well as baby Eli, are worth his friendship.Turns out, Judgmental Guy isn't too mean-okay, he kind of still is. But he graduates to Elijah. I build an unlikely friendship with him which deems it necessary for him to start smiling around me and my kids. I'm wrong again. Elijah isn't rude. He's terrifying. His strange acts of kindness are unraveling me. Elijah is only my friend.Right? Oh, fudge. I think I'm wrong. Again.
