Kathryn Nolan

Luna's cheerful, hippie reputation is ruined when her billion-dollar company is caught in a scandal. And only a burly, dog-rescuing biker can help her. As these opposites give in to their electrifying attraction - will their differences keep them apart? Or will they learn to trust their wild hearts?

Wild Open Hearts

He's the best bad decision she'll ever make... Type A attorney Fiona Quinn has one goal left to accomplish before turning 30: A big, fairy-tale wedding. All she needs is a groom. So what if she's never been in love-or even lust-before? She's confident she can solve the problem the way she always does, with spreadsheets and an action plan. When a family emergency brings bad boy Max Devlin swaggering back into town-with his cocky grin, tattoos, and wanderlust-Fiona has to remind herself that he's as unsuitable as it gets. Nope. Not happening. No matter how irresistible his invitation is for a night or seven between the sheets. If she can't tie him down-metaphorically, of course-her pants must stay on. Max can't remember the last time a woman turned him down. He's a guaranteed three-orgasms good time, dammit. So what if he's not the marrying kind? Those sweaty palms he gets when Fiona agrees to help him save his dad's punk rock club are just an allergic reaction to her methodical march toward matrimony. Before he hits the road again, he's going to prove to Fiona that life's more fun when you play rather than plan. No one gets hurt when it's all just fun and games, right? Author's Note: A steamy, opposites attract standalone romance featuring a cocky bad boy (with a heart of gold) and a buttoned-up good girl (with a secret wild side). 1-click if you're into dirty dancing, swoony first kisses and hot trysts in supply closets. This book comes with a guaranteed (and very romantic) Happily Ever After.

Not the Marrying Kind

There was no way I could protect her and my heart at the same time. Cope McDaniels is known for two things: His cocky charm and his sterling reputation for keeping high-profile clients safe. Until a security job goes bad, and he suddenly finds his career on thin ice. Cope's newest assignment comes with serious consequences - he'll keep his job as long as he makes no mistakes. Cope isn't worried...until his new client turns out to be a beautiful blast from his past. Big wave surfer Serena Swift loves the adrenaline of her sport. And the elite athlete hates being told what to do. That goes double when the orders are coming from the sexy bodyguard-in-a-suit who broke her heart. But she doesn't have a choice when a mysterious threat materializes and Serena's sponsor saddles her with the last man she'd want guarding her body. She'd rather focus on her next surf competition, not on some shadowy danger or the arrogant ex who dared to get even hotter since their breakup. Cope can't stop butting heads with his new client. Just like old times, Serena refuses to play it safe, even when it's clear she's in peril. Now the intimacy of spending every second of the day by her side is wearing away at his self-control. He can't afford to lose focus, but everything about the woman is a constant distraction. Including the fact that their divorce was never finalized... Author's Note: One-click this scorching-hot bodyguard romance if you're a fan of second-chance angst, sizzling sexual tension, thrilling action and mysterious danger set on the warm, sunny beaches of San Diego.

Finn Travis, local surfer and all-around nice guy, never expected to find himself the leader of Playa Vieja's resistance. He's more of a mellow tree-hugger than a radical activist. Except Avery's hotel threatens to destroy the place he loves the most. For the first time in his life, Finn decides to use his charisma for more than just attracting his next fling. Avery's worked too hard to let a bongo-playing hippie like Finn shatter her perfect future. And his naive idealism grates on her every nerve.

But the riptide of their attraction jeopardizes more than just their ideological values. Can Avery and Finn be together without giving up what they care about the most?

In the Clear

What’s the first rule of wedding planning? Don’t fall for the couple…

It was supposed to be a quick trip to the mountains. I was going to show my best friends Beau and Flora their wedding venue, hope they said “yes,” and check another task off the long list of things to do before they tie the knot. Oh, and continue to keep my feelings for the bride and groom under wraps.

What I didn’t plan for was a sudden blizzard to trap all three of us in a cozy cabin over New Year’s Eve weekend. Just me, the dirty-talking paramedic, the flirty baker, and too many bottles of champagne.

Oops. 

Talk about a disaster. Resisting temptation is the only option—because revealing my secret would ruin their relationship and our friendship. 

I’m not willing to lose them both. 

Even if the couple I’m forbidden to have…might want me back. 

KEEP YOU BOTH is a (super) steamy MFF novella set over New Year’s Eve weekend with a guaranteed Happily Ever After.

Keep You Both 

Fifteen years as a protection agent and I’ve never—not once—been tempted to break the rules. My reputation and professionalism are the reasons I’m about to secure the promotion of a lifetime. So the last person I need anywhere near me is Luke Beaumont, the very definition of temptation.

The man I’ve just been ordered to protect at any cost.

Luke is everything that I’m not. Charming and wealthy, messy and reckless. And he’s made it his mission to make my job impossible. While my irritatingly impulsive client would rather ignore the dangers of old family secrets and new forbidden attractions, I know better.

If this job’s taught me anything, it’s that emotions are a complication, and complications lead to distraction. Though nothing can prepare me for the onslaught of emotion when Luke is kidnapped. I’m hit with the glaring truth: I’ll risk it all to save him.

Even if that means losing everything.

FREE FALL is a steamy, standalone M/M bodyguard romance filled with flirty banter, forced proximity, action-packed suspense, small-town secrets, and all the queer joy.
