Christmas in the City

Sloan Foster was always a good girl. An honor student in high school, she had big plans for herself, and then college happened. She thought she'd met the man of her dreams in hometown football star Lucas Smith. Then she had the earth shattering realization that dreams were just that…dreams. She found herself pregnant, right about the time he got drafted for the NFL and dropped her like a bad habit. Now a struggling 25 year old single mom, she works as a massage therapist and is determined to take care of her son, Sage, on her own, without a dime from him. No matter how many times he tries to pay her to ensure her silence.Loxley Storm was raised by his mom, his dad was a dead beat he never knew. Growing up, he had anger issues and got into a lot of trouble for fighting. Thankfully, a man named Marco took him under his wing and helped him learn to control his anger by fighting…in the ring. Now 26, he is an MMA fighter working to become pro, helping run Marco's gym along with his best friends, Sly and Huck. To the trio, getting tied down with women is something they don't need. To blow off steam, they have the “hit it and quit it” motto. Until an injury in a fight lands Lox on Sloan's massage table, where sparks fly and neither can deny the attraction. The more pieces of Sloan Lox finds out, the more he respects her and her accomplishments as a single mom. Sloan is hesitant to trust another man, and she sure doesn't want to risk her son getting hurt, but how long can she keep Lox at arm's length? Will she let Lox in? Or will she let her past ruin her chances of finding love again?

Letting Lox in

Silas Manning's life has always been built on expectations, mostly those of others - his mother, his grandmother, basically the entire town. The one person who always accepted him for him pulled away years ago and he really doesn't understand why. Now, he feels like he's facing defeat and embarrassment all on his own, and paying for mistakes that aren't even his. Growing up with just her dad, Simone Whitman has done a great job of taking care of herself. Her dad is a great man, but he's a dad. When it came to matters of the heart, she was all on her own. That's why when her best friend broke her heart, she locked it up, and she doesn't plan on giving it to anyone again. If that means never falling in love, so be it. She can't handle the heartache of someone else leaving her behind and letting her down again. When life gets turned upside down for these two, will they let each other back in and help each other through the hard times? Can they get over the past and start anew?

Forgiveness of Summer

Anna Lewis is just tired. She's tired of being predictable. She's tired of khaki skirts, sweater sets and pearls. She's tired of her overbearing mother trying to push the Perfect boyfriend on her. She wants to stand up for herself do normal things kids her age do. She's eighteen not thirty-eight. With her mother still on her case, an ex-boyfriend who's an ass that won't leave her alone, it's not going to be easy. She was ready to move on with her life, leave the step-ford wife her mother was trying to turn her into behind. The only way she sees of doing that is going off to college. She's always admired the strength that her sister Gabby radiates and wishes she could be more like her. After Gabby asks her to come to college with her and live in the house with her and her roommates how can she turn it down?Russ Addison has pretty much always been a football star. Going to college with that status could get him any girl he wants, with no strings attached. That is until he was introduced to her. He was in pure awe over the angel he met last year, Anna Lewis. He was both excited and scared about the possibility of living with her. Her sister and everyone else in the house had threatened him and his balls to stay clear of anything romantic with Anna. He would just have to stay away from her in the romantic sense and be her friend...Her best damn friend. Because he knows he'll never be good enough to be anything more to her.After everyone is moved in and ready to start the fall semester, Russ starts to figure out that everything may not be what it seems with Anna. He also realizes that he can't stay away from her no matter how much he tries. Anna knows she can't seem to have enough time with Russ and she can't help but wonder why he thinks so little of himself. Will they be able to stay away from each other or will they have to act on the temptation of each other.
