Operation Sex Kitten

One night. No strings attached. What could go wrong?CooperI was pretty happy living the carefree life of a successful bachelor. Money to spend, a revolving door of women, no commitment, no relationship troubles--it was perfect. At least, that's what I thought until I held my friends' newborn baby in my arms, and she smiled at me. That was the moment I realized what life was all about. That was also the moment it occurred to me I needed a baby mama--stat.So... the hunt is on for the perfect candidate. But first, I might have to have one last fling--you know, go out with a bang. Literally.KateThanks to making a few wrong decisions along the way, I'm now busting my ass waiting tables while putting myself through college. It's not ideal, but I'm determined to stand on my own two feet and take care of my responsibilities the best I can.But I'm still a woman. I have needs. I just don't have the time for any kind of commitment. Naturally, when a smoldering hot Marine offers me a no-strings-attached one-night stand, I'm all on board.Turns out... he wants more than I'm willing to give.

Cinderella and the Marine

When it comes to Ron Thompson- his career, the Marines under his command, his women - he's in charge. Period. The sooner Brenna Roberts realizes that, the better. Ron I'm a decorated Marine general who doesn't have time for relationships. I've tried -they just don't work out--and I've never lost sleep over it. Then I meet her. Brenna is easily the most beautiful woman I've ever laid eyes on. The first time she blushes under my stare, it's game over. She's going to need to learn that I'm in charge and trust that I always mean what I say, because I'm not letting her go. Brenna When Ron offers me a drink at the Sterling's wedding reception, I have no idea that he's a military star on the rise; I just know he's the walking definition of masculine--that translates in the bedroom (and couches, counters, tables...) as the best sex I've ever had. The more time we spend together, the more I'm convinced he's hiding something - or someone--and I'm not going down that road again. He can say anything he wants, but actions speak louder than words.

The General's Desire

Auras, aortas... potato, potahto? After an ugly divorce, Dr. Aiden Matthews was only interested in one-night stands. The last thing he wanted was a girlfriend, despite his daughters urging him to start dating. And he certainly wasn't going to ask out the spunky hippy chick they met on their hike, no matter how much his girls meddled. Sure, Dakota had been hot. And gorgeous. And hadn't taken his crap-something he'd found oddly sexy. Lately it seemed everyone but his girls cowed to him the second he started to glower. But not her. And, he had to admit-begrudgingly, she'd made some solid points when they'd argued in the parking lot about... everything. Still. They had nothing in common. He was rain clouds, and she was sunshine. She dealt with people's auras, and he dealt with their aortas. They were not the same. So why couldn't he stop thinking about her? And what kind of cosmic shenanigans were at work when they ended up at the same Fourth of July party on Cape Cod, sleeping across the hall from one another? The kind that had them waking up next to each other without any clothes on. Fortunately, she wasn't interested in anything but casual, either. But the more time they spend together, the more he realizes his heart could be in trouble-which is never a good thing, especially for a grumpy cardiologist.

Inferno

Tattoos, muscles, and a beard? Oh my. Ben McCallister wasn't like any man attorney Harper Finch had ever dated. For one, his hands were rough and calloused from working all day at his mechanic shops; two, his muscled arms, back, and chest were covered in tattoos; and three, he rode a Harley. The men Harper dated were the ones her daddy would approve of: white-collar, with hands as soft as hers, and the most ink any of them had ever had was a fraternity seal that stayed hidden under short sleeves. But there was something about this bearded man... how gentle and caring he was with her-outside the bedroom, that is. But his manners in the bedroom? Let's just say he didn't have any-which suited Harper just fine. He was a dream come true. If only she were allowed to dream anymore... But her family and her secret made that impossible. She'd have to settle for a fun summer fling. She should have known Ben McCallister would never 'settle' for anything less than all of her-forever.

Playing Dirty

It. Was. Not. Happening. It couldn't. Getting involved with Ryan Kennedy almost guaranteed her face would be plastered all over Page Six. She couldn't afford to be in the gossip section again. Not now. There was too much at stake. Grace had things to do--finishing med school and keeping her nose clean for her upcoming residency match, to name a few--and she wasn't going to let anything or anyone derail her this time. No matter how broad his shoulders were. Or how perfectly styled his messy hair was. Or what his sexy grin did to her insides. It wasn't fair. No man should be allowed to be that gorgeous. Certainly not the sexy firefighter who she was supposed to be keeping at bay. Women's eggs dropped at the sight of him. But not hers. Nope. But the sexy firefighter seemed determined to burn her resolve to the ground. And staying away was starting to feel like an impossibility...

But now, after turning his CIA dealings into a very lucrative mercenary career, here he was, about to embark on a ten-day cruise with his cabin next to hers, not by coincidence-although she didn't know it yet. He wasn't known as a 'fixer' for nothing. Maybe it was time to try to fix his broken heart, and hers-if she'd let him. And that was a big if, given how he'd shattered hers so long ago.

Reignited

Are dads even allowed to be that hot? Paige When I woke up Christmas morning, I didn't know if I'd been on Santa's nice list this year-or his naughty one. Thinking back to the prior evening's events, I decided it was definitely the naughty one. There had to be a mistake-I was always on the nice list. But the gorgeous, naked man snuggled next to me seemed to suggest I had a lump of... something waiting for me. Maybe the nice list was overrated. Or maybe naughty girls really did end up with coal in their stockings. Grant I was now on the 'every-other-weekend and alternating holiday schedule' with my kids-one more thing about divorce that I detested. Attending my law partner's Christmas Eve party seemed like a better alternative to drinking alone in my boring beige condo, staring at my new pipe-cleaner tree with its new, shiny ornaments. The last thing I expected was to be propositioned by a former PTA President. Or to wake up Christmas morning not wanting to leave her bed. But you don't get to be our age without plenty of baggage. The question was, did ours match? This sexy, feel-good second chance romance will have you cheering for Paige and Grant to finally find their happily ever after together. But not before they discover that dating-at any age-isn't so easy.
