Book Description
A freelance writer learns what it's like to be a single, heterosexual guy in an unsteady world when he's invited to travel cross-country for six months on the "Playboy Bus" in search of the Playmate of the Millennium. Struggling writer Leif Ueland has hit rock bottom: no job, no money, no decent apartment, no girlfriend, and he’s also a really nice guy. Acutely insecure, he’s been trying to get a grip on things with the help of a mentoring therapist. Then the opportunity of a lifetime arrives: Playboy’s Playmate of the Millennium search. Dozens of cities. Thousands of women. And one man covering it all. Suddenly, Leif, a son in a family of feminists, the anti- Hefner, finds himself at the center of a vortex of erotica, sexual harrassment, plastic surgery, stripping, and, always, beautiful women. But what does it mean to be a heterosexual, single guy? Sensitivity to women’s needs? A life full of machismo and meaningless sex? Leif Ueland is about to find out—and tell all.

I made a fortune when I sold my tech start-up, and I’ve spent the years since partying, drinking, and inviting a parade of women into my bed. I should be happy, but I feel an annoying lack of fulfillment, and there’s no way I’m going back to the work I did before. At a friend’s party, I meet Marissa.

Marissa—whose last name I still don’t know—wants me to be involved, though she rejects my marriage proposal. But before the baby arrives, I’m going to prove to her that I can be something other than a playboy.

'Out-of-this-world amazing... Let me tell you, this author has the skill set of a flippin' pro... It is everything and beyond...Spectacular.' Reviews from the Heart, 5 stars My head is pounding. Yawning, I rub my hands over my face, and I'm surprised by the shiny gold band on my left ring finger. What the... I'm Mac. But you already know that, right? You probably even recognize the sound of my voice... Because I'm the radio host that wakes most of Sacramento up every morning. The sultry voice that blares out of your speakers when you're sipping your first coffee of the day, or driving to work, stuck in traffic. I'm the DJ that most of the women in Sacramento lust after. Everyone knows me, knows my reputation: ladies' man, bad boy, eternally single commitment-phobe. I have my own reasons for needing to stay single, my own demons to battle with. Scars that don't show, but that stop me from getting close to anyone. Except, after one hell of a drunken accident, I've woken up married. To a gorgeous green-eyed girl, Kelley, I only met yesterday in a coffee shop. A killer hangover later, it turns out that this playboy is off the market. But there are three problems: 1) I'm married to a girl I met less than twenty-four hours ago. 2) No woman has ever been able to change my ways - who says that Kelley's going to be any different? 3) Kelley must be the one lady in this city who doesn't know who I am - and that means she doesn't know about my past, about the issues that haunt me. So I might be taken, but the question is... for how long? This is a full-length, standalone romance with some hot-under-the-collar action, no cheating and a guaranteed HEA. For fans of R.S. Grey, Whitney G. and Vi Keeland, Accidental Groom features a sexy AF alpha and a steamy will-they-wont-they love story that will have you completely hooked. Readers absolutely love Dana Mason: 'WOW!!!... What an AMAZING read!!... Gorgeous & sizzling hot hot hot!!!! Exceptional read!!... I needed more...much more!!!! I didn't want to put this book down.' Crazies R Us Book Blog, 5 stars 'I was blown away. This book kept me turning the pages and wanting more and more. I kept saying to myself just one more chapter. OK? Just one more page!! I had to finish this. There wasn't an option of stopping and waiting until the next day to read it. My head was hurting, my eyes were dried out, but I pressed on!!! LOL... A must read!!' The Love of a Good Book, 5 stars 'Oh my goodness. It was so so good!... *swoon*... *big happy smile face*... A beautiful love story.' Smittens Book Blog, 5 stars

Forced out of a self-imposed exile, one woman faces a lifetime’s worth of secrets and betrayal–all in the name of staying alive. Nicole Blake had planned to leave her criminal life in the past. She had done her time in a dank prison in Marseille and relinquished the world of forgery and counterfeiting for an unassuming career as a freelance consultant. Now her world is a small farm in the French Pyrenees, with daily fresh eggs and the companionship of her devoted dog. But when U.S. intelligence operative John Valsamis shows up at her door, Nicole is reminded that she’ll always be an ex-con. Valsamis is after Nicole’s former lover, Rahim Ali, and soon Nicole finds herself back in Lisbon, tracking down Rahim in all their old haunts. Except now Rahim isn’t just a document forger–he’s a suspected terrorist. Unwittingly drawn into an international web of fundamentalism, crime, and corruption, Nicole discovers that its threads stretch from the cobbled streets of Lisbon to the once-beautiful city of her birth, Beirut, and to the top levels of the government that sent Valsamis to find her. And as with any good web, the harder Nicole fights to free herself, the tighter it closes around her.
