Break the Rules


Book Description

She’s my best friend’s kid sister. Now she’s not a kid any more. As a forest ranger, I believe in the simple life. I prefer cabins to apartments, trails over freeways, and trees to people. My life is orderly, predictable, and quiet. Until it’s hit by a woman I never saw coming -- Hurricane June. She’s fierce. She’s feisty. She has a laugh like the first day of spring, and she’s so pretty that I can’t breathe when I look at her. June will only be in town for a few months—just while job-hunting. She won’t last until winter, but how can I resist? Except I have to. She’s my best, oldest, and most loyal friend’s baby sister. Betraying him would be the worst thing I’ve ever done. Not betraying him might be the hardest. Especially once we start working together on a secret project. All this spending time together, sneaking around at night, and lying to her brother about what we’re doing sure feels like more than friendship. June might break my heart. Her brother might break my nose. But I guess some things were made to be broken. Break the Rules is the third book in the Loveless Brothers series, and can be read as a total standalone. It's for fans of high-heat, low-angst romantic comedies and anyone who's ever had a crush on their brother's best friend. This one's got all the sibling banter you love, meddling brothers, a mountain man who's quiet in the streets and anything but in the sheets, tons of steam, and all the small town charm you can handle. Of course, it's also got an HEA. (And yes, it bangs.) This series is for fans of Elsie Silver, Claire Kingsley, Lucy Score, Kate Canterbary, and Pippa Grant.

Torch


Book Description

I lost her once. I can't lose her again. I fight wildfires. It’s dirty, sweaty, and dangerous, but there’s nothing else like it. There’s no adrenaline boost like a hundred-foot wall of flame. There’s no victory better than saving a town. Particularly when the town you save is your ex-girlfriend’s. Clementine’s that ex. The one I haven’t seen in eight years. The one I thought I was going to marry. We were over a long time ago, and there was a good reason why. There were a hundred good reasons, and I know every single one by heart. Or at least, I thought I did. The more time I spend with Clementine, the harder they are to recall. She’s still hotter than any fire I’ve ever fought. Still the same feisty, whip-smart, headstrong girl I fell for. When we’re together, it feels like eight years may as well have been eight minutes. I already know how this story ends: we go down in flames. Crash and burn. But I’ve never loved anyone like I loved Clementine. Not even close. Maybe some fires are worth rekindling.
