Chicago, Illinois ~ Present Day

It’s the wedding of Izzy to Nick Santori (from OVEREXPOSED) and there’s a winter storm outside. It also looks as though more than the bride and groom will get to enjoy a very sexy wedding night…

Getaway

Bridget Donahue hasn’t forgotten FBI agent Dean Willis, nor that he used her to get information on her employer in a sting operation months ago. Okay, maybe her boss was bad, but Bridget wished Dean had been honest with her before he kissed her. Leaving a bar after a post-wedding excursion with the other bridesmaids, Bridget is accosted in the dark by a stranger who reminds her of Dean. To her surprise and anger, it is Dean. He informs her that a hit is out on her to prevent her from testifying against her former boss, and Dean intends to provide some very up close and personal protection.

Readers who read OVEREXPOSED know that the secondary romance between Bridget and Dean was not over when that book ended and will be thrilled to see it’s finally resolved in Getaway. While Bridget is seething at first that Dean thinks he can waltz back into her life with a story about a hit on her, she soon decides to take advantage of their being alone in an isolated cabin. It might be cold outside, but Bridget and Dean will soon be getting warm between the sheets.

Runaway

Stripper Lean Muldoon knows that her job doesn’t provide for much of a chance to meet the right kind of guy, and frankly, she’s too busy working and going to school to care. Jumping into the waiting limousine in front of the bar, she quickly falls asleep. Unbeknownst to Leah, she’s in Slone Kincaid’s limousine and the sexy millionaire is intrigued by her. He mistakes her for a prostitute and offers a deal she can’t refuse…one night of sex with him. She accepts, but she’ll do it for free. There’s something about Slone that has Leah dropping her reservations of having sex with a stranger. Could it be that she’s attracted to him?

Hit the road and get ready for a round of sizzling car sex in Runaway. The chemistry is red-hot between Lean and Slone even though their lives are totally different. Despite her working as a stripper, Leah is striving toward getting out of the business, and getting involved with Slone could not only jeopardize that, but his reputation. But, will one night be all that they’ll be able to have?

Three-Way

Lawyer Mia Natale broke off her burgeoning relationship with Brandon Young because she suddenly got cold feet. Mia isn’t the type to get emotionally involved with any man, but her feelings for Brandon scared her, so she left Pittsburgh and returned to Chicago. Walking into her hotel room, she’s greeted by none other than Brandon, who’s seemingly bent on exacting revenge for her dumping him six weeks before. He promises her the fulfillment of her most erotic fantasies. All of them… How can she refuse?

Break out the ice because Three-Way is a scorcher! Mia presents a tough chick exterior, but deep inside she’s afraid to unlock her feelings toward Brandon. When he offers her sex that will give her a night to remember — and no commitment — she takes the chance that she can walk away without her heart ending up singed. What she doesn’t bank is on the chances he’s taking to fulfill her fantasies. I think the title of Three-Way explains it all…

Her Way

Vanessa McKee has worked hard to get where she is as a dancer, but deep inside she’s never forgotten the first man she loved…Stan Jackson. Having a drink in the hotel bar, she’s shocked when Stan walks in and comes on to her. It only takes another moment before he recognizes her, and Vanessa wastes no time in telling him off and then storming out. Returning to his hotel room a few minutes later, Stan is shocked to discover one wet, dripping naked female in his bathroom…Vanessa!

Despite the intervening years, Vanessa can’t get over Stan’s ditching her and then walking out of her life. A chance to vent her anger at him doesn’t chase away the feelings, and when she accidentally ends up in his room, she may get a chance to learn why he really left. The weather outside might be frightful, but Stan and Vanessa know the best way stay warm is in each other’s arms. Will Her Way have these former lovers reuniting?
