Claimed by a Billionaire on Christmas Eve: An Age Gap Romance


Book Description

I'm such a moron. I consider begging him for mercy, but frankly, I'm too tired to attempt to appeal to a rich guy's forgiving side. "So…are you going to hand me over to the cops?" He strokes my cheek, making a shiver climb down my spine. To be honest, the shiver isn't entirely out of fear. He's handsome, a partially silver fox with silky waves of brown and gray hair, dark eyes that possess panty-melting heat, and a sexy five o'clock shadow on his strong jawline. Jesus Christ, Krystal, this guy is old enough to be your dad, a voice in my head hisses. The reminder does nothing to lessen my attraction. Then the voice reminds me that this guy is going to have me arrested, and that reminder is like a cold shower. He murmurs, "That depends on how agreeable you are."

Claimed by Him: An Age Gap Romance Collection


Book Description

Warning: this collection contains 5 sexy age gap instalove romance short stories featuring young women and their determined alpha males! Includes An Offer from My Dad's Creditor, Knocked Up by the Tycoon, Caught by the College President, Wanted by My Fake Boyfriend's Dad, and An Offer from the CEO! An Offer from My Dad's Creditor "Lucky for you and your parents, I'm benevolent enough to offer an alternative method of payment," he says. From the lust in his gray gaze, I have a pretty good idea what the "alternative method of payment" is, but I ask anyway, "What do you want, Mr. Ricci?" "I want you to carry my child." His words make me lightheaded. Today was not a good day to skip dinner. "Um, what?" I ask, my legs trembling with the struggle to stay upright. Maybe I heard him wrong. No such luck. "I want you to carry my child, Paisley." Knocked Up by the Tycoon My breath stops for a moment. Is that…? I shake my head before I can finish the thought. Pregnancy has to be making me hear things. Because there's no way– "Alexa, look at me." My eyes bulge out of their sockets when a big familiar hand grabs my small one. Okay, I don't think my pregnancy brain can make that up. My imagination is not that vivid. I turn around, and my breath halts for yet another moment. Standing in front of me is Dallas Takahashi, my ex-boyfriend. And the father of the baby growing inside me. Caught by the College President I suck in a breath when my college president wraps his arms around me and pulls me onto his lap. "I…I have a boyfriend," I say, my voice coming out annoyingly breathy. He chuckles. "Oh, yes, your boyfriend, who seems like a real prize." He tugs at my blanket, exposing my bare shoulder. When he lowers his head and presses his mouth to my shoulder, I become breathless. Wanted by My Fake Boyfriend's Dad At the sight of Mike's father, I have to actively keep my jaw off the ground. One thing my friend neglected to tell me–his father is sexy. Mike's not a bad-looking guy either, but he got his golden hair and hazel eyes from his mother. Mr. Currant, on the other hand, has dark chocolate waves and intense gray eyes. Tall, dark, and handsome–just my type. An Offer from the CEO His face becomes serious. "I know your family has a lot of debt, Charity." I stiffen. Does a CEO normally concern himself with the financial troubles of a lowly office assistant? "There are your mother's unpaid hospital bills, your father's unwise loan to his brother, your own brother's gambling…" My grip tightens on my bottled water. How does he know all of that? "I'll take care of that debt," Adam says. I catch my breath. Chance Enterprises is a multi-billion dollar company, so I know he has the means to pay off my family's mountain of debt. "Why would you do that?" I ask. Then I remember that Mr. Chance is known for his philanthropy. Does he see me as a pitiful charity case? Is that why he has been so nice to me? "Because I want something in exchange." "What do you…?" I get my answer when he strokes the hem of my black pencil skirt.

He’s Obsessed: An Age Gap Romance Collection


Book Description

Warning: this collection contains 5 sexy age gap instalove romance short stories featuring young women and their determined alpha males! Includes Bought by the Billionaire, Blackmailed by the Senator, Caught by My Boyfriend’s Dad, Discovered by My Best Friend’s Dad, and Caught with the King. Bought by the Billionaire My heart soars when someone raises his hand. 30,000 dollars—that’s enough to pay off my sister’s debt. Before that can fully sink in, the auctioneer continues: “30,000 dollars. Going once, going—” “A million dollars.” My eyes damn-near fall out of my head when I see the only Asian man in the room stand up, his paddle high in the air. With some pleasure, I also note that he’s the only certified-fine man in the club. A head full of natural black hair with a few distinguished streaks of gray, a jawline that would make most Hollywood actors jealous, and a fit-as-hell body that is begging to get out of his black designer suit. Blackmailed by the Senator “I’m sorry, Senator,” I whisper. A smile appears on his face. I don’t know if that’s a good or bad sign. “A young person who knows their senator by sight? How refreshing.” In a pathetically small voice, I say, “I don’t have any money.” “I could’ve guessed that by the state of your car and clothes.” My face turns hot. I almost ask, What’s wrong with my clothes? My shirt and jeans may not have designer labels, but they’re clean and in okay condition. “You have two options,” he says. “I can call the cops and report you for attempted hit and run. Or…” I whisper, “Or what?” His smile becomes wicked. Caught by My Boyfriend’s Dad Making me catch my breath, the man turns me around. But instead of looking up into the face of a cop, I see Fred’s father. Though I’ve never met Fred’s dad or even seen a picture of him, I know without a doubt that this man is my boyfriend’s father. He has Fred’s hazel eyes, strong jawline, and thick dark brown hair. A foolish little voice in the back of my mind whispers, Wow, Fred’s dad is hotter than him. Fred isn’t bad-looking, but he’s a 22-year-old boy while his father is a man. If Fred wore a black suit, he would look like a kid playing dress-up. But Mr. Cain is wearing a black suit now, and the black fabric fits every part of his body nicely. Very, very nicely. “I’m asking you again,” Mr. Cain says. “Who the hell are you?” Discovered by My Best Friend’s Dad “You can do this, Flora Chang,” I whisper to my reflection. I have no choice. After I take another deep breath, I knock on the door. “Hello, Mister…” I stop when I see a scowling Mr. Graham. Aka the father of my best friend Vanessa. “Uh, hi, Mr. Graham,” I say, my cheeks turning warm. “I think I knocked on the wrong—” “No, you got the right room,” he growls, seizing my wrist and pulling me inside. Caught with the King When I open my door, I’m immediately blinded by what must be a dozen cameras. “Olivia Liu, how long have you known the king of Ceannia?” a woman shouts.

Includes Caught by My Professor, Working for My Dad's Best Friend, Waiting on My Dad's Former Friend, Trapped in the Storm With My Boyfriend's Dad, and Claimed by the Mountain Man. Caught by My Professor My professor stares at my hand. Like an idiot, I'm still holding the answer key. A corner of his mouth curves up. "Were you planning to cheat on the upcoming exam?" I drop the answer key like the paper has the ability to give me a second-degree burn. "I, um, well, I..." God, I might as well tattoo, Cheater, cheater, pumpkin eater, on my forehead. "Is there any way you could not tell anyone about this?" I ask. Probably a futile question. To my surprise, he says, "I'm willing to keep this a secret, but..." I widen my eyes when he plays with a lock of my hair. Is a professor allowed to do that? "You might not like my proposal." A wicked smile appears on his face. "Or you might like it very much." Working for My Dad's Best Friend Dad's friend may be a rich jerk who spends obscene sums of money on vases and is twice my age, but I can't deny that I find him attractive with his messy auburn hair, those dark blue eyes, and the five o'clock shadow on his defined jawline. If he weren't close buddies with Baba and I were far less acquainted with his personality, I might have hooked up with him. Okay, I would have definitely hooked up with him. Waiting on My Dad's Former Friend He asks, "Aren't you going to ask me why I fell out with your father?" Though I'm curious, I reply, "That's between you and my dad." "We fell out over you." I blink. "Over me? Why?" "Your father asked me to help him with some of his debts. I told him I would give him money…on one condition." Dad had–or has–debts? This is news to me. My father is an obsessive couponer and refuses to buy any clothes that don't come off the clearance rack. "Why would that end your friendship?" I ask. "Because the 'one condition' was having you." Trapped in the Storm With My Boyfriend's Dad Surprising me, he grabs my hand and pulls me toward the dining room. The contact causes my pulse to flutter. A voice in my head hisses, Oh my God, you can't develop a crush on your ex-boyfriend's dad. Despite the voice, I find myself sneaking glances at Mr. Fleming. Gabe inherited his good looks, and I'm looking right at the source. Both father and son have dark blond waves of luscious hair, bright hazel eyes, and effortlessly fit bodies that look damn fine in designer clothes. Claimed by the Mountain Man "I need to get out of here," I whisper. But how? My horrible sense of direction is what landed me here in the first place, and if I attempted venturing into the woods again, I might actually get eaten by a bear. "Hello." I nearly fall off the bed. "Careful," he growls, catching me before I hit the floor. My pulse jumps. I was right about the stranger's size. He is huge. His arms are like muscular tree trunks, and I swear he must be 7 feet tall. He's also super hot, something I did not expect. I'm typically not into bearded guys, but that black beard really suits his chiseled face and brings out his green eyes.
