I can have anything I desire…but all I want is her.
Hunter Middleton

She has no clue who I am.
Her employer.
And I have no idea who she’s going to be.
My addiction.
Despite all our differences and the danger closing in on us, I’m ready to claim her after one interaction. There’s something about her I cannot resist, and we begin a rollercoaster ride of passion and danger, fueling my…obsession.

I thought I was a phoenix who rose from the ashes of my past free of the pain and betrayal, but I was wrong.
Jinx, Dwyn, Coda, Raz, and Mo were nothing more than bad memories until they magically reappeared in my perfectly organized world as smoking hot adults. By the time I realized they were the boys I loved as a teen, it was too late.
For the second time, an explosion changed the course of my life in the blink of an eye.
I don’t know if The Five are dead, captured, or hiding.
What I do know is the shadowy client intent on conquering the criminal underworld by killing off competition will pay for daring to take what is mine.
He may believe he’s won by using me to eliminate The Five, but there’s a twist he couldn’t plan for…
✨EXCERPT: SOMEONE YOU DESERVE by @harlowjamesauthor is coming October 4th! This will be a simultaneous release in Audio with the amazing narrators Aiden Snow & Vanessa Edwin!
“Why are you acting this way?” she fires back at me.
“What way?”
“Like an older brother who doesn’t approve of me going out with a boy.” She mimics my stance. “Newsflash, Penn. I already have a protective older brother. I don’t need another.”
“Trust me, I have no desire to be your brother, Astrid. But I just don’t understand where your head is at. Dick is the last guy on Earth you should be going out with.”
She rolls her eyes. “Jesus, you and Grady must have talked.”
We did, but she doesn’t need to know that. “He’s not good enough for you,” I say instead—because it’s the fucking truth.
“I’m not going to marry the man, Penn. It’s just dinner.” Then she straightens her spine and steels her gaze. “And you know what? It felt nice to be wanted. It’s been a long time since I’ve felt that way.”
If she only knew how badly I want her, how much I fucking crave her.
Does she not think about that night as much as I do?
Tell her, Penn. Tell her and remind her what that kiss felt like three years ago. Show her how she makes you feel, how she makes your body come alive—how being with her feels like breathing.
“Astrid, I…” I fucking want you.
“Mommy?” Lilly comes down the hall, rubbing her eyes.
Fuck.
It’s just as well. Letting the truth run from my lips would only do more harm than good.
Finn had thought he’d seen it all…but no…he had to admit…
Not quite everything…
There was a big universe out there and it was about to land in his lap.
Just how bad could it be?
Finn is a troubled war-hero, overseen by an unyielding Commanding Officer while dragging his group of rookies through basic training. When an alien incursion lands in the middle of a patrol exercise, wielding powerful weapons and alien armour far beyond their own, he is forced to lead the remnants of Delta Squad in a desperate struggle for survival.
Utilising light-reflecting camouflage, the aliens go on the rampage, killing indiscriminately and capturing Finn’s CO before going on the hunt. Outgunned, and with the world’s armed forces helpless to act after a second incursion drops, Delta set out on a desperate rescue mission, only for the aliens to reveal a weapon that could change modern-day warfare forever.
Finding themselves in a battle for Earth’s future, Delta Squad discover the aliens are more than they seem, and that alien technology can be just as deadly in the hands of humanity when they unearth a deadly secret ‒ the Weapons of Choice.
New city, new job, and maybe one day, a new love. She just didn’t realize how quickly that could all happen until she walked into a tattoo shop, finally ready to get the ink she’d wanted since her fiancé died, nearly four years ago.
Ethan O’Neill had everything. Until one day, he didn’t.
After an off-ice injury stripped him of his hockey career, he started over in life, pursuing his other passion—tattoos. He’d never been the kind of guy to want to settle down, but that all changed one day, when a knock-out beauty strolled into his shop and into his life.
An instant attraction and a little bit of ink is the perfect mix for two people ready for change.
It’s been three years since Cam lost her fiancée Ben to cancer. She is relocating to be near her best friend Lily and is ready to start living again with the first step getting a tattoo in memory of Ben. Ethan was a professional hockey player until an accident ended his career. He now owns his own tattoo shop and is friends with Lily and her husband.
From the moment they meet they have an instant connection and he wants to help heal her pain she and he raises feelings in her that she hasn’t felt for a long time. She knows that Ben would want her to start living again and that maybe he had a part in her meeting Ethan as she was doing the tattoo to honor Ben but is she ready to let another man into heart?
I like how there was little drama and there was no doubting the feelings that Cam and Ethan had for each other. It was all about helping Cam heal so that she can embrace her future and Ethan is so supportive with however she has to do it.

Over two years ago, I met a woman on New Year’s Eve, and it was the best night of my life. Until the next morning when it became the worst.
One voice message. One swerve over a double yellow line. One little girl, my niece, who’s now mine.
It hasn’t been easy. These things never are, but we’re trying. Now, I’m twenty-six, and determined to be the best wide receiver on our team, while she’s seven and spends her days reading books and dancing ballet.
Only, I haven’t just grieved the loss of my brother, but her too. My heart ached for what could have been, and what I had to let go. I know what I did to her was wrong, yet I never got the opportunity to explain. But when the door opens and she steps in wearing green scrubs and a long white coat, shock ripples through me, and I hope I might finally get the chance.

I always wondered if this day would come, but I never expected to see him here, with her, in one of my patient rooms. He’s even better looking than I remember and giving off single dad vibes, too, as he cares for his adorable niece. A niece I didn’t know he had.
I was surprised when he asked if he could see me again, but I instantly declined. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Only now we keep running into each other, and I’m confused. Is fate throwing us a second chance, and if so, should I catch it?
A fiery second-chance, sizzling romance in which two former spouses are forced back into each other’s lives—whether they like it or not.
My grandmother always had a flair for drama.
At eighteen, I was forced to marry so I could pay my college tuition.
Enter Caleb Cunningham: my best friend’s brother and Navy SEAL.
I needed my inheritance, he needed money to cover his dad’s hospital bills.
It seemed like a win-win.
The marriage didn’t last, but that’s okay. It was a marriage of convenience.
At least, that’s what I told myself.
Over a decade later, Grandma’s still pulling the strings from beyond the grave.
Her last wish? For me to live with my estranged husband for six months, or I lose everything—my company and my employees’ livelihoods included.
Now, I’m stuck with Caleb, the rugged, infuriating, and the man who once broke my heart. The deal is simple: he’ll stay with me for the next six months as long as I give him… well, everything.
He wants control.
He wants my grandmother’s penthouse.
And, of course, he wants the Bentley.
Caleb seems determined to make my life hell, and he’s enjoying every minute of it.
But if he thinks I’m going down without a fight, he’s got another thing coming. It takes two to make a marriage, and it’ll take two to crash it into the ground.
There are three rules I live by: My boys come first, the rest of my family second, and never mix business with pleasure.
I take pride that I’ve never broken these.
Until her.
She’s a wildcard—the type of woman I never chase.
She has no straightforward plan for her life.
Her version of how to be strict with my boys is laughable.
I swear, she selects her outfits based on what tattoo she wants to peek out, just to make me wonder all day what the rest of it looks like against her flesh.
And that blush she somehow has nailed everytime I look at her, wreaks havoc everywhere it shouldn’t.
The most annoying thing about her?
She’s taken by a neanderthal who treats her like crap (based on the phone conversations I’ve secretly overheard).

Where love melts the ice and dreams come to fruition. Welcome to the Carolina Fury, where passion thaws even the most frozen hearts.
Brooklynn Greene has it all—a successful salon, a close-knit group of girlfriends, and a life she loves. But there’s one thing she can’t seem to get out of her mind–her irresistibly charming neighbor.
She can’t have him. He’s a dream. No, he’s the dream.
Her neighbor is off-limits. At least, that’s the way that she sees it, and she’s tried to keep him at arm’s length. But he needs her help. And it wouldn’t be neighborly to deny him.
Even if it means playing his fake girlfriend.
Forrest Westwood doesn’t worry. He lives his life the way that he wants, knowing that money is no object. The day he turns twenty-five, his trust fund is his. Life is going to be a comfortable one once his checks start coming in.
He plays by his own rules. She’s everywhere. Across the street, in the stands, and his dreams.
Life has a way of becoming complicated. The confident and independent woman is right in front of him. But can a fake relationship between them stay that way, or will the lines between pretend and reality blur as they play the most dangerous game of all—falling in love?
Meeting Ross Davis, professional baseball coach and my sports crush, is a funny story involving a stalled elevator, the potty dance, and an attempt to get into his hotel suite. In my defense, that last one was an accident.
He came to my room instead with a bottle of scotch and a sad soul.
My one night was not a stand, but more like a lie-in. As in, we snuggled and talked and not another thing happened.
So, nothing surprises me more than seeing him again when he becomes the manager of the Chicago Anchors, my hometown pro-team, and our paths intersect once more.
It’s here the story gets fuzzy, because Ross Davis, that sexy silver fox, has a proposal for me.
Baseball players are notoriously superstitious, and Ross is somehow convinced I’m his good luck charm. One who brings him success by sleeping with him.
Only sleeping.
The problem with this arrangement begins when those funny, fuzzy things called feelings get involved. Eventually, his elevator pitch is no longer an easy walk in the ballpark or a simple sleepover in his bed.
And I’m worried I’ll be the one left in the outfield when the season ends.

My new role as the social media content manager for the Silverbacks is a dream come true—except for my ex being the team’s quarterback.
Then there’s Rogan O’Rourke, the backup QB with the smoldering blue gaze and irresistible smile—who’s proving to be an unexpected complication.
Although he’s battling for the starting spot on the field, it seems he’s also vying for my attention. His flirtatious advances feel like a game I can’t win, and he’s doing his best to turn my life upside down.
But I’m on a mission to keep my career on track and steer clear of any romantic drama… especially with another football player.
And resisting Rogan?
That’s proving to be the toughest, and most tempting, play of all.
Jacob Chance grew up in New England and still lives there today. He’s a martial artist, a football fan, a practical joker, and a bacon lover.
A USA Today bestselling author of sports romance and romantic suspense, Jacob has endless ideas and plans on providing his readers with many more entertaining stories.
Autumn is excited to handle the social media for the Silverbacks and doesn’t want to do anything that could put her job at risk. It is already complicated due to her past with the starting quarterback so getting involved with his back up is a complication she doesn’t need.
Rogan is looking forward to this opportunity with the Silverbacks and knows that he needs to prove himself. He had feelings for Autumn from their first meeting and understands the complications that go along with it but he also realizes that some rewards are worth the risk.
Fun and flirty I loved Autumn and Rogan together. The banter between them was humorous, the chemistry radiates off the pages and they are exactly who the other needs in their life.
