I'm "The Baby Maker". I give women what they want, no questions asked. And I get paid to do it. It's the easiest job in the world. No fuss, no mess, and I make a ton of money. It was perfect. Then my next client walked in, and everything went to hell. Elisha was the last person I expected to see. The girl that got away. Curves that could make a model jealous, and come-hither eyes that turn my muscles to mush. Her husband treats her like dirt. I'll treat her like the queen she is.

Chloe Franklin wouldn't call herself a commitment-phobe, so much as she's allergic to anything long term. She loves the sexy, sweaty, and intensely hot hours of the night that come before the sun rises, though. Especially when those nights are spent with Search-and-Rescuer Gage McGraw.

Every time he steps foot in the sleepy town of Beaufort, he hooks up with Chloe. But he's tired of hook-ups. He wants more.

I never thought I’d see him again, but when my former best friend shows up ready to make amends, it becomes clear just how tied to the past I am. He disappeared when I needed him the most, leaving me to navigate my truth alone. Now he’s back. Nixon’s art leaves me vulnerable, defenseless - and I like it. Bound by desire and past hurts, giving him complete control might be exactly what I need to set me free. What neither of us expected? The ropes free him, too…

The minute I laid eyes on him, he became my new hobby. I turned on the charm to win him over, only to get friend-zoned. The more time we spend together, the more glimpses I get of the Daddy he’s hiding under his no-dating-allowed exterior. Unfortunately for Saint, a Daddy is exactly what this boy is looking for. I have no intention of staying friends with him, but with every platonic interaction, I start feeling things I never have before. I wasn’t looking for someone to fix me, but if I let him in, we might have something amazing here.

The Emperor Domitian has informers everywhere; no-one is safe. He rules Rome with a rod of iron, and he is dangerously unstable and paranoid. In the snake pit of Imperial Rome, all Pliny the Younger wants to do is get his letters ready for publication. Except if he, his mother, their Greek cook Doris (who narrowly missed out on becoming the next Oracle at Delphi), and Venta, their slave with secretarial skills, have any chance of surveying, they are going to have to negotiate a political minefield, keep their eyes peeled for spies and, most of all, not do anything to annoy the Emperor.

Mein Plan, mich als Prostituierte auszugeben, war nicht gerade perfekt durchdacht - das weiß ich jetzt. Eigentlich hatte ich nämlich mit einem anderen Mann gerechnet. Nicht mit ihm. Deshalb wäre es verrückt, weiterzumachen. Geradezu absurd. Irrsinnig. Aber diese wunderbar dreckigen Dinge. Die süßen Schmerzen... Was er mir währenddessen ins Ohr flüstert... Nein. Ich kann ihn nicht wiedersehen. Es wäre wahnsinnig. Gefährlich. Seine Blicke sind Warnung genug, ganz zu schweigen von seinem obsessiven Verhalten und dieser unglaublichen Intensität.

Vergib mir, Vater, denn ich habe gesündigt... Enthaltsamkeit macht nicht wirklich Spaß, aber sie gibt mir Sicherheit. Die Narben auf meinem Rücken erinnern mich täglich an meine Fehler und ich war mir so sicher, aus der Vergangenheit gelernt zu haben - bis Detektiv Calder Penn sich in mein Leben drängt. Das Wort "Nein" existiert in seinem Wortschatz nicht und er ignoriert meine Ablehnung mit einer Leichtigkeit, die mich in den Wahnsinn treibt.
