I wasn’t supposed to be on the beach that night. Neither was Declan Beauchamp, the super-hot, super-bad-boy upcoming actor. He saved me from being hurt. But his life changed forever.

Edward Chase. Ex-priest. Now, General Manager of the London Ice Kings hockey team and the new CEO of the Davenport empire. The first time we met I spilt coffee all over his $10,000 suit. He looked at me like I was an inconvenience. I despised him at once. So, imagine my shock when he turns out to be my new boss? He’s stern, forbidding and determined never to love again. I’m a curvy romantic, who believes in happily ever afters.

Sebastian "grumphole" Sovrano is ruthless, arrogant, and fixated on me. The first time we meet at a bar, I dump my drink all over him. He's grumpy, high-handed, full of himself, and...so very appealing. No way can I act on the attraction that sizzles between us, right? But I need to get custody of my daughter, and he promises to help me. Provided I pose as his wife. Only problem? I can't resist his mean smirk, his wickedness that appeals to the darkness inside of me.

Cade "the King" Kingston, billionaire grumphole and the most sought-after athlete on the continent. He’s also London’s most notorious bachelor with a ten-pack and a profile that would make Adonis weep. Too bad he’s ruthless, has a heart made of ice, and is the most unfeeling brute I have ever met.

Weston bloody Kincaid. The billionaire who wore £7,000 suits like he was doing them a favor. When he wasn't filling out his doctor's scrubs like they were tailor-made for him. Exactly the kind of man who needed to be taken down a notch. Definitely not the kind with whom you want to spend any extended period of time. Absolutely not stuck with him in a remote cabin during the holiday season. Totally completely not snowed in together over Christmas.... Help!

My husband is a made man, a villain, the boss of the Mafia. He stole me from my normal life and catapulted me into the center of the underworld. He imprinted his crimson fingerprints onto my psyche and tried to set me free. It's wrong of me to be attracted to the viciousness in him. And yet I can't...won't stop until he loves me back. It's why I returned to him. It's why I allowed him to use me. But when he springs a surprise...he breaks my heart, and this time, I will not forgive him. I run from him. Only he's not the only one hunting me.

He’s my second chance. The man with the face of my first love. A terrifying and magnetically gorgeous man with brutal blue eyes. An outlaw whose very presence sucks the air from my lungs. A monster who doesn't remember his past, whose soul is shrouded in scars, pain, and darkness. A villain who refuses to acknowledge my very existence. The rogue who I am going to marry, for this may be the only chance I have to find happiness. So what if it means binding myself to a man who hates me? Except "until death do us part" is going to come quicker than anyone knows....

Ein Fake-Date und ein unmoralisches Angebot … was soll da schon schiefgehen? Dr. Weston Kincaid – brillanter Arzt, arrogant und mürrisch. Definitiv kein Mann, mit dem ich Weihnachten verbringen möchte. Schon gar nicht eingeschneit in einer abgelegenen Hütte. Auch wenn er verboten gut aussehend ist und sein Anblick mir den Atem verschlägt. Während ich mich noch auf die Ruhe in der einsamen Lodge gefreut habe, hat er es sich dort nach seinem Unfall längst gemütlich gemacht.

Eine vorgetäuschte Ehe mit Londons berüchtigtsten Junggesellen... eine wirklich schlechte Idee. Sinclair Amadeus Sterling, unfassbar reich und mächtig, bietet mir einen Job an. Einziger Haken? Der Milliardär verlangt von mir, dreißig Tage seine Ehefrau zu mimen. Er ist arrogant, kontrollierend – und bei unserer ersten Begegnung habe ich dem Mistkerl dahin getreten, wo es ordentlich wehtut. Das Einzige, was noch schlimmer ist als sein nicht unerheblicher Gott-Komplex, ist sein fehlender Sinn für Humor.

America’s unique prosperity is based on its creation of a middle class. In the 20th century, that middle class provided the workforce, the educated skills, and the demand that gave life to the world’s greatest consumer economy. It was innovative and dynamic; it eclipsed old imperial systems and colonial archetypes. It gave rise to a dream: that if you worked hard and followed the rules you would prosper in America, and your children would enjoy a better life than yours. Incredibly, however, for more than 30 years, government and big business in America have conspired to roll back the American dream....

Ein alleinerziehender Vater. Ein verführerisches Kindermädchen. Ein sinnliches Versprechen. Damian Savage ist der Liebling der Klatschpresse. Ein steinreicher Musiker, arrogant, verdammt attraktiv und somit tabu. Es knistert gewaltig zwischen uns, und ich wünsche mir eine leidenschaftliche Nacht mit ihm. Was hat Julia Andrews nur an sich, dass ich sie vom ersten Augenblick an für mich beanspruchen will? Dies ist die Geschichte von Damian und Julia.

Eine Braut auf Zeit. Feinde aus der Vergangenheit. Und ein unstillbares Verlangen. Saint Jordan Killian Caldwell ist unermesslich reich, und die Mafia zwingt mich, sein Vertrauen zu gewinnen. Der Milliardär ist es gewohnt, stets die Kontrolle zu haben. Er ist anmaßend, dominant – und verspricht, mich an meine Grenzen zu bringen. Es ist ein gefährliches Spiel. Sehne ich mich nach ihm, seinen Worten, seiner Berührung? Ja – doch ich werde mich nicht in den Mann verlieben, den ich verraten muss.

Something is coming -- throwing the balance of the realm into chaos. Darkmoor is a dumping ground for other planets, where criminals are left to fend for themselves in an environment incapable of electricity or modern innovation. But what makes a criminal? Over the centuries, these outlaws have banded together to form communities, basic infrastructure, and even religion. Out of this forsaken place, a hero will arise, and a secret will emerge that could devastate the pampered lives of those on the surrounding planets and the entire realm. Some are eager to take advantage.
