  • The Playbook

    My life revolved around two things. Football and my cock. And not necessarily in that order.

    Being the head football coach for a top university in Texas had its ups and its downs.

    The ups? Endless women to f*ck.

    The downs? The politics that came with the job.

    From the moment Aubrey Cain walked into my office, she turned my world upside down. Being forced to have her follow me around for a month was going to be a pain in the ass. Especially since I couldn’t keep my eyes off of her.

    The best I’d hoped to come out of this was a few nights with her in my bed. I never imagined she’d be the game changer.

    Brett Owens was my assignment.

    Head football coach for a top college, bad boy reputation, short temper, and handsome good looks should have scared me off. But I was tougher than that.

    From the first words out of his obnoxious, dirty-talking mouth, I knew it was going to be a long month. It wasn’t five minutes after meeting him, he hit on me. If only I had known his blue eyes would haunt my dreams and awaken a desire inside of me I never knew existed.

    This was business. There was no way I would be tempted by him no matter how good looking he was or how many things he whispered in my ear.

    He was only supposed to be my assignment. Not the man who threatened to destroy both my heart and my career. I would follow along with his playbook for now. But who would end up winning was anyone’s guess.

  • Who We Were

    My Papai always said wine made everything better. Countless times he uttered those familiar words to me— “The Merlot will melt your problems away, meu amor. With a good bottle of wine in your hand, you hold the magical key to anything you want.”

    I believed my father wholeheartedly, until my world came crashing down on me at twenty-four years old.

    It wasn’t going to take wine to help Brody and I find our way back to one another. It was going to take fighting … not only for our love—

    But for my life.

    More than once, Harmony Banks has watched her perfectly ordered world torn apart by fate. Now she’s finding out that what she lost wasn’t as perfect as she thought—and it’s tearing her apart. The only thing that keeps her going is the kindness of a stranger: the firefighter who saved her life the night everything changed.

But if she and Preston can push past heartbreak, they’ll find that something incredible awaits in each other’s arms.

  • Merry Enemies

    Working at the library is my dream job, and story time with the kids is my favorite part. I know what you’re thinking, it’s because of the hot single dad who brings his daughter each week. Sure, he’s easy on the eyes, but that man gets on my last nerve.

His dark brown hair and green eyes are full of excitement when he sees me. I want to wipe that smug smile off his face. I won’t let him ruin this for me.

    With each day that passes, I get to know more of Harrison Maggio, the ex-Navy SEAL turned firefighter. The more I know, the harder I fall. But would a guy like Harrison go for a nerdy, booklover who has way too many curves?

    The only thing on my Christmas list this year is for a particular firefighter to put out these flames of desire.

    Previously released in the Dear Santa anthology as Untamed Flames.
