She spent twenty years teaching women how to slow down. He thinks they should just 'go outside.' At forty-four, Morgan Townsend has done everything right. She built a wildly successful wellness company, sold it for more money than she'll ever need, and optimized every minute of her life along the way. Now that she has nowhere to be, Morgan has no idea what she actually wants. So she trades San Francisco for three months in a remote North Cascades cabin, determined to figure it out. Enter Declan: her gruff, flannel-wearing, axe-carrying landlord who happens to be the same infuriating stranger who once roasted her business advice online. And, unfortunately, he's very easy on the eyes.

What is a Soulmate? After ten years of fruitless efforts, fully bonded, beloved mates Kingston and Sora have failed to produce the Thornwoof pack Alpha heir. Time has run out. The ancient Tenth Law, with all its archaic rules and procedures, is enacted and, over the Luna's objections, the Alpha is forced to use a Breeder for the continued survival of the pack. Survival is messy. McKay has arrived prepared to provide life for a pack in need. What the well-meaning young Breeder isn't prepared for is the powerful feeling for a mated wolf that is not hers. Will the destined child be their ruin? Questions must be answered - what is a soulmate? Set in a modern world, this is not a fairy tale ending - it's a cautionary tale of how folklore gets written. "See TRIGGER warnings before you proceed."

I'm not afraid to get on my knees and bow before you... I'd worship you Tara... let me worship you baby." "We can't." I whisper. The moisture is forming between my legs. His grip on my chin and hip is firm. I started this. I kissed him after he warned me. His words still rings in my ear, "Tara if I kiss you I won't be able to stop." Why didn't I listen? I'd be lying if I said I didn't want this. The heat radiating off our bodies was enough to burn us both alive. "We shouldn't." I whisper with my eyes closed. Our lips are so close. I want to kiss him. Fuck that. I want him to fuck me. I want him to dominate me. I want him to do the nastiest things to me. But...... he's my stepdad

We were friends with benefits. Reed would stop by every time he was in Anchorage, and that was the extent of things, although I started to want more. Then he ended our arrangement, and I suspected there was another woman, but it wasn't until I overheard a conversation that I understood completely. He thought I was calling and texting because I couldn't take no for an answer. That wasn't my problem at all. Two blue lines were.

He helped her believe in forever, then he used her trust against her. Phoenix Lane has spent her entire life proving herself. She's built a reputation on hard work, long hours, and never letting anyone see her struggle. For months, Jackson was the one place she could rest. The man who brought her coffee, helped renovate her dream duplex (even though he didn't have a handy bone in his body), and convinced her that maybe she didn't have to carry the weight of the world alone. When she discovers Jackson came to Cascadia with an agenda. One that put her firm, her career, and everything she had confided in him directly in the crosshairs. Phoenix was never supposed to be part of the plan. Until she was. Now she is suspended without pay, her most vulnerable client is in danger, and the man she trusted most is standing on the wrong side of the damage she is still trying to contain. The problem? Jackson knows exactly what he did. And he is not leaving until he finds a way to deserve her forgiveness. Hidden and Held is a slow-burn emotional romance about a burnout heroine who stopped believing in second chances, and the groveling hero who is determined to become the reason she starts again.
