Who says you can't fall in love at seven years old?
I know I did.
The love I felt for my babysitter, Camryn Davison at such a young age transformed over time.
By the time I was a teen that love turned into fantasies I knew would never come true.
By the time I saw her again at twenty-one I was determined to make those fantasies a reality.
If only she'd see me as the man I am now and not the little boy she used to soothe when I had nightmares as a child.
She's the only one that has an issue with our seven-year age difference, but I'm determined to prove to her that a younger man is exactly what she needs.

If it wasn’t for bad luck, I wouldn’t have any luck at all. That saying is as old as the hills in Tennessee, where I used to live. And it’s definitely true. I’m a bad luck magnet, at least when it comes to men. Moving to Stone Lake was supposed to be a fresh start. Here, I was going to build a life I could be proud of. Finally put down roots and live quietly. Be safe and happy. It didn’t quite work out that way, but I’m stubborn and I’m not about to give up. Ben Kingston was the first man to handle me with care. He gave me a glimpse of something I desperately wanted. And then, tore it away from me with the carelessness of one whispered word. I don’t need a man to complete me. In fact, I’ve had enough of them. I’m okay with being single the rest of my life. I’ll be just fine with my handy friend B.O.B. Except Ben keeps coming around, tempting me and a girl can only take so much. Ben’s out to prove I can trust him. I don’t trust any man, not anymore. But my resolve weakens when he touches me, slides his hand down and proves buying stock in batteries might not be a good life plan. Welcome back to the world of Stone Lake. Junie and Ben have a bumpy start for sure, but when trouble comes knocking on Junie’s door, will she let Sheriff Kingston prove he won’t let her down again? Complete Standalone Romance “That was a mistake,” I tell him. “I’m just not ready to have a man in my life,” I sternly express to him, and I have to wonder if he can hear the panic edged at the back of my voice. “You’re a woman who screams sex, Junie. Do you really think you can go through life without enjoying that in your life?” “I scream sex?” I repeat, feeling like I just swallowed my tongue. “Oh, yeah, more than anyone I have ever met.” “You’re wrong,” I deny. “It’s been a year, Junie, but I haven’t forgotten a moment of our time together.” “That was a lifetime ago. I’m a different person now. I have a new life plan.” “A life plan?” “Yeah. I just decided on it tonight,” I tell him and that’s not a lie. I decided on it right this minute, and I’m going to stick to it. “What is this life plan, Junie?” he asks, and his dark eyes hold a humor in them that I shouldn’t like, but I do—even if they are freaking me out. “I’m buying stock in batteries.” “Batteries?” “Definitely. The only man I can handle in my life is Bob.” “Bob.” For a minute he looks confused and then he starts laughing. His laughter warms me, chasing away the last remnants of the fear I felt earlier. “Oh, Junie. You’re in trouble now.” “I am?” “Definitely,” he says, but he gets up and starts walking to the door. I follow him like I’m in a trance. “Why am I in trouble, Sheriff?” “Because I always did like a challenge, and now, I’m going to feel compelled to remind you that your vibrator can’t compare to what I can do to your body.” He opens the door and casts me one last glance. “Make sure you lock this door, Baby. I’ll see you tomorrow.”

Dying to experience life, I cross an ocean to get away from my fears. I find my safe haven in the form of Detective Aiden Holden. He shows me what love is, but then our lives collide. Our little world shatters, and I'm caught in the crossfire. I'm forced to return home, to let go of the only person who has made me feel like I could be more. How do you return to a cage once you’ve tasted freedom? My only hope is that Aiden will cross an ocean for me. When I open the front door, Emma forces a smile to her lips, but I can see it doesn’t reach her eyes. It feels like I’ve lost her, and my heart clenches painfully. Emma steps inside, her body tense as she glances around the foyer, and up at the stairs. I hate that she’s uncomfortable in my home. Having little to no strength left after the nightmare of a week, it feels like I’m about to break. “Emma.” I close the door and take a step closer to her. “Tell me what happened. What you’re feelin’ and thinkin’? Let me help you.” My eyes get stuck on the purple discoloration around her neck. I know from experience what causes marks like that. Emma was choked. It explains why her voice is practically gone. Rage makes me bite the words out, “What happened to your neck?” When she presses her lips firmly together, refusing to talk, I take a step closer to her. Her body instantly goes tense, and she clenches her hands. Fuck, not that. “Emma, what did they do to you?” My voice is low with fear. “Nothing,” she whispers. I can’t stand the distance between us and I take the few steps separating us. I take hold of Emma’s clenched hands and pin them to my chest. She won’t open them or look at me. “Please, Em. Let me share the pain. Let me help you through this.” She shakes her head, her breath catching in her throat. I brush my fingers over her cheek and lean closer. “Who hit you?” She opens her mouth, and at first, only a rasp of air comes out. It hurts like hell to see her like this. Then she presses her forehead against my chest and finally whispers, “Colton.” Fucking bastard. I wish I’d killed him when I had the chance. I wrap my arms around her, wishing I could give her all of the strength I have left. I’m used to being in control, to being able to handle everything, but all my power has been stripped away from me. Pressing a kiss to her temple, I softly say, “Tell me what they did so I can make them pay.” She pushes against my chest, and I take a step back. Her face is tight with anger. “You think you can actually do something about it?” I frame her face and make her look at me. “Emma, I can. I’m not your dad. I’ll prosecute them with everything I have.” “This is not about my fucking dad,” she screams, her voice breaking over the words. “You can’t do anything about it, Aiden. It fucking happened. It’s done. Nothing you do will change that.” Her arms wrap around her waist, and hunching over, a broken cry tears from her. My heart shatters at the sight of her crumbling right before my eyes. I move forward, but she sags to the floor, whimpering, “Don’t touch me.” Feeling helpless as fuck, I watch the woman I love with every single beat of my heart, fall apart. I sit down beside her, needing to let her know I’m not going anywhere. Michelle Heard is a Bestselling Romance Author who likes her books hot, dirty, and with a touch of darkness.

Title: Savage
Author: Kira Blakely
Genre: Contemporary Romance
I need her to play wife. She needs me to play daddy.
Olivia is torture in a Gucci dress. Spoiled and sassy. Everything I hate, and everything I love. She’s also my late best friend’s sister and guardian to his daughter. She’s going to help me clean up my image. I’m going to help her keep parental rights. But I’m no daddy. I’m the devil in a black suit. Demanding everything from everyone. Savage. Claiming her innocence has been my deepest desire for years. Even if it means my destruction. Too late to stop. Too gone to care. I’ll pay the price. Anything. Anyone. For her.
All I’ve ever wanted to do for years is write my own books. I spent an ungodly amount of time ghostwriting a few bestsellers for other authors before realizing it was time to start taking credit for my own work. My personal struggles in life, love, and money have driven me to start doing what I love most: Writing full time. I started writing when I was a teenager. I fell in love with a boy who didn’t quite love me back–admittedly, I was terribly insecure and slightly overweight–and the entire experience drove me to start practicing my craft. Writing helped me to escape, to reimagine a world where happy endings actually existed. If I couldn’t have the love of my life, I’d just create Mr. Right in my romance novels… with maybe a few embellishments. I’ve found my calling. Having the experience of doing what I love most as a full time job has given me happiness and confidence galore. And, soon after I found those, I was able to find companionship. Shout out to my guy and my kitty! I so hope you enjoy my books! I wish you the very best in this crazy thing called life.

Title: Two Curvy Girl - Billionaire Romances
His Laughing Girl
His Competent Woman
Author: Ellen Whyte Genre: Contemporary Romance
This Curvy & Confident bundle contains two complete romances featuring big beautiful women and their yummy billionaires. Cheerful, light, contemporary reading.
His Competent Woman In desperate need for money, Emma applies for a job with handsome billionaire Curtis West. She's not really qualified for the job and to make matters worse, she loses her temper during the interview and fudges her credentials. Can she pull it off or will this end in tears? His Laughing Girl Curvy chef Sophie Weston has given up on love. But when she is hired to cater for a very exclusive house party, she falls instantly for handsome tech tycoon Richard Cummings. However, she quickly discovers that Richard has a shady past. Should she trust him or should she walk away before her heart is broken again?
As Andrea glared and Richard fussed, helping me out of my seat and handing me my bag, I caught a whiff of that clean scent again. It bypassed my heart and went straight downstairs, starting a pleasant pounding.
I love to flirt, don’t get me wrong, but that kind of reaction isn’t me. It caught me totally by surprise. So much so that I was standing there, gawping at him like a total fool, when Andrea’s cell rang. “It’s the Guardian,” she hissed. “They want to know about the new patent we registered. But it’s the girl from the gossip page, not the tech editor.”
“Excellent,” Richard was expansive. “You deal with it, Andrea. Give her the press release and fob her off on everything else.”
Andrea nodded. “Rebuff and redirect. Got it.”
She was clearly super capable, and I could see why Richard liked her. But he was abandoning her and cornering me! “Sophie and I will go ahead. I’ll order your tea and fruit for you.”
At that, Andrea actually growled at me, which was rather nice. Ignoring her petulant frown, Richard took my arm companionably and began walking me down to the dining carriage. “I was thinking this week was going to be complete hell, Sophie. I’m so glad you’re going to be there.” The grey eyes were warm. “At least you and I will have a bit of fun.”
He wanted to have fun. With me. “We’re going to have a blast,” I heard myself say. “Trust me!”
Breakfast wouldn’t lay me open to more than pleasant chat, I told myself. It wasn’t like we would be joining the Mile-High Club or whatever the railway equivalent was.
“They’ve got eggs Benedict and a sausage platter. Do you like eggs and sausages, Sophie?” Richard was walking right behind me, leaning down a little so his lips were near my ear. The feel of his breath warming my neck was giving me thrills.
“I eat everything!” I squeaked. “And there’s nothing like a hot sausage, is there?”
“Quite,” he chuckled. And the thrills from that dirty laugh went straight from my ear to my nipples.
It didn’t mean a thing, I reminded myself. My ears are sensitive. Even a blow dryer can give me shivers. It’s purely a physical thing. An involuntary reaction. Totally impersonal.
I’d just focus on business. Virgin had announced a new menu based on responsible British farming, a move that I wanted to check out. Also, it’s good to hobnob with clients. Word of mouth is how I get my clients, and with Richard Cummings knowing everyone in the model world, he’d be a good contact.
The train swayed, and Richard’s arm curled around my shoulders protectively. “Promise you’ll not abandon me,” he murmured. “Andrea is a clean-eating vegetarian.”
“Sounds hell.”
“Exactly,” Richard chuckled. “I want real food, and with you backing me up, I won’t feel guilty.”
I remembered Andrea’s disapproving frown and knew I’d enjoy teasing her. “Partners in crime,” I told him.
“To being wicked.” His grey eyes were laughing at me. “Together.”
The pleasant thumping in my knickers became a vigorous pounding. This man was gorgeous. I could feel his charm wrapping around me like a warm blanket.
Irresistible, right? I heard myself quip, “Are you Cumming onto me?”
He bounced right back, “Absolutely.”
Oh well, I told myself. It’s just a flirt fest. I have those all the time, and it hardly ever comes to anything. Because of the curves, probably. Men like me, but after we’ve had a laugh, they go to bed with someone skinny.
This was no different. I’d have a giggle with Richard, enjoy the charm and the good looks, lust after him a little bit, and know it was purely a game. Because tech billionaires with a penchant for A-list models don’t fall for curvy caterers.
“How about we have some Buck’s Fizz with that eggs Benedict,” Richard suggested as he settled me into a seat. He really had lovely manners. “I’m in a party mood.”
I took in the kissable mouth and the slanting cheekbones. “Sounds terrific,” I heard myself say. “There’s nothing as decadent as champagne for breakfast!”
Yes, yes, I know! But you only live once, right? And anyway, it was just a bit of flirting. What could possibly go wrong?

Title: Riders Fall ( A Viper's Bite MC Novella )
Author: Lena Bourne
Genre: MC Romance
Rider's Fall is a 200 page novella set in the world of the Viper's Bite MC series. It is a standalone story, so it's not necessary to read the other books in the series, although it does contain slight spoilers if read first. No Cliffhanger, HEA Guaranteed!
Rider I never had a home, and the one I found with my MC is gone now too. But I will go on, I always have. I'll just ride like I've done since I got my bike. Ride as far as the road takes me. This time, it took me to the jungles of Brazil, and then it stopped dead. But not because it ran out. I stopped for a girl named Chloe, a do-good volunteer at an orphanage who is clearly running from something, but she won't tell me what. She's not letting me get very close to her either, which won't stop me trying. Her curves and her pretty face were enough to halt my ride, but that's not why I'm staying. That's because being with her is being home--the kind of home I never had nor even wanted until she crossed my path. Now she's all I want, and I'm a guy who takes what he wants. Chloe I was forced from my home, my college, and the only life I've ever known by a vindictive ex-boyfriend and a sex tape that went viral. It ruined my reputation, stopped my career before it even began, and nearly ended my life. But I've rebuilt it all working at this orphanage in rural Brazil. The last thing I need is some testosterone filled bad boy messing with my mind and making me do something I'll regret. He may be hot as sin and he definitely wants me, but he'll just have to move on. Even though he also taught me how to let go of my past truly and completely, and given me a taste of the freedom I haven't had since my life went to pieces. Maybe not even before that. But he's not here to stay, he doesn't know how to. And I've worked too hard and for too long to have my heart shattered all over again when he leaves me behind. Rider's Fall is biker romance novel, which contains steamy sex scenes and deals with disturbing themes that may be uncomfortable for some readers. Intended for 18+ audiences.
