📖 About I WANT IT THAT WAY by Karen Grey
Fake relationship? As if.
I don't need a man to complete me, but to get my tubes tied before I turn thirty, I do need a husband. So when former child TV star Lukas Keith's desperate for a favor, the exchange of my services for his seems like a great idea.
I help him relearn how to drive a car, and he acts as my fiancé for a few doctor's visits.
What could go wrong?
Bingeing 90's TV shows like Seinfeld and Ally McBeal have you jonesing for a time when email and cell phones were strange new things, and an app was something you ate before dinner? Then this steamy, slow burn, fake relationship, entertainment biz romantic comedy is just what the doctor ordered.
📖 About The Cutting Edge: A steamy hockey romantic comedy by Lisa Daily
A laugh-out-loud hockey romantic comedy perfect for fans of Helena Hunting and Pippa Grant!
Logan Rivers is a star pro hockey player for the St. Pete Slashers -- and he's in a slump.
He hasn’t scored in 3 games and it’s starting to freak him out. Enter Coco, who strikes a deal with an assistant coach to be Logan's lucky charm to pay off her training expenses as an Olympic figure skater. Everything is looking up for both of them.
She’s almost got her debt paid off and the Slashers are on a winning streak. There's only one problem: she doesn’t know how to tell Logan she’s been lying to him the whole time.
If she can just keep her secret until the playoffs are over…

Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship.

To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
