Book Description
Twenty-six-year-old Rose Devlin may shop in the plus-size department, but she's never had a problem attracting men--with disastrous consequences. Recovering from her latest mistake, Rose has sworn off casual sex and moved to California to grow up, help her best friend, and make something of herself. When Rose asks the cute-but-geeky guy next door to help her land a job in high tech, she never expects to unearth his quiet strength, stunning accomplishments--and hidden talents. With a secret in her own past, Rose tries to keep her distance, but she finds that nerdy Mark isn't so nerdy when the lights go out. And that maybe, just maybe, she's not too grown up to risk one more disaster...

Book Description
"There's something sexy about a woman with a man's name..." Stevie Maddox was the last person I would have hired. Or kissed. Or slept with. Somehow, I managed to do all three despite her being all wrong for me. But she's funny. Sweet. Sexy as hell. And I can't stop thinking about her... I just have to convince her this is more than just an office romance. He was another rich pr*ck doctor, at least that's what I thought. Keeping Dr. Scott in his box would keep everybody safe. It would keep things uncomplicated. Simple. But nothing about the former football player was simple. He was a gentle giant, a dominating gentleman. He wasn't anything like I thought he would be. But we're all wrong for each other, no matter what Scott thinks. I just have to convince him of it too. Before one of us gets hurt.

Book Description
From Sunday Times and #1 New York Times bestselling author of Things We Never Got Over Dominic: I got her fired. Okay, so I'd had a bad day, but there's nothing innocent about Ally Morales. Maybe her colourful, annoying, inexplicably alluring personality brightens up the magazine's offices that have felt like a prison for the past year. Maybe I like that she argues with me in front of the editorial staff. And maybe my after-hours fantasies are haunted by her brown eyes and sharp tongue. She's working herself to death at half a dozen dead-end jobs for some secret reason. And I'm going to fix it all. Don't accuse me of caring. She's nothing more than a puzzle to be solved. If I can get her to quit, I can finally peel away all those layers. Then I can go back to salvaging the family name and forget all about the dancing, beer-slinging brunette. Ally: Ha. Hold my beer, Grumpy Grump Face.

Julian Hunt is a legend. A tech billionaire and a playboy philanthropist. He's not someone you meet, not without a six-month wait. Except I did--and not in that sweet, meet-cute kind of way. I wish.No, I manage to run head-first into Julian Hunt in a nightclub. It's the spill-my-drink-over-his-suit kind of headfirst, the break-my-heel kind. But the arrogant bastard doesn't leave. No, he carries me to my car. He implies that I fell on purpose to catch his attention--how dare he!--and after I've chewed him out, he asks for my number.I don't expect to see him again. After all, lightning doesn't strike twice. Except it does, when Julian's involved. Because when I walk into a business negotiation the next day, who's sitting on the other side? Julian Hunt. He's wearing a smirk and a perfectly tailored suit, and he's not there to play. He dominates. I walk out of the negotiation having--somehow!--been offered my dream job. It's an offer far too sweet to refuse.But if there's one thing more intimidating than running into Julian Hunt at a nightclub, it's the prospect of Julian Hunt as a boss. A very persistent, dominant, sexy-as-hell boss. He might have decided that we'd be perfect together, but I won't be tempted by his broad shoulders and wicked tongue. Julian might be a hunter. But I refuse to become prey. "Arrogant Boss" is a riot of a romantic comedy, starring a billionaire bad boy looking to woo the woman of his dreams, a pint-sized girl with big dreams and a ton of sexy banter. Standalone, no cheating and HEA-guaranteed!
