Like his brothers and sisters, Seth Sinclair went from blue-collar to billionaire overnight, and he's decided to invest in what he knows best: construction. There's only one thing in his way -- the endangered birds nesting on a piece of prime beachfront real estate. And fighting for the birds is Riley Montgomery, a stubborn, pain-in-the-ass, drop-dead-gorgeous environmental lawyer. The worst part? Seth will do anything to keep her around -- even if it means hiring her to be his fake girlfriend.

"When wildlife conservationist Jade Sinclair and her siblings learned they were part of the mega-rich Sinclair dynasty, they became billionaires overnight. When the arrogant, privileged, sexy snob Eli Stone sets his sights on Jade, they strike a bargain: Jade will teach Eli basic survival skills, and he'll teach her how to navigate the world of the wealthy elite"-- Provided by publisher

Aiden Sinclair was a commercial fisherman before he suddenly came into his billionaire inheritance -- not that he's complaining. Being a Sinclair does have its perks. But things were simpler before the money. He may have been dirt poor, but he loved his job and fully intended to always come back from the sea to his girlfriend, Skye Weston, so they could move toward something more permanent. Or at least that had been the plan . . . until he returned from a two-month fishing trip to discover she had moved away and was marrying somebody else. It tore his world apart.

Charlie: I wasn't the type of woman that a guy like Gavin Reid would usually notice. I was a science geek that no man really paid attention to...until a mysterious hit on my life appeared on the dark web and brought me to Gavin's attention for all the wrong reasons. Sure, he was trying to save my life, but I wasn't about to buy that he was interested in me in any other way except for being a good Samaritan. Rich, highly intelligent, and scorching hot men like him never looked my way. Nevertheless, he did save me in more ways than one, and once I got to know him and his monster dog, I found out that Gavin harbored his own secret pain. He'd been haunted by his past...just like me, and even though our circumstances were different, we were also very much alike. Thrown together by accident, I had to fight our overwhelming attraction, remind myself that it wasn't real. With my life in danger, the adrenaline was high, but once we got back to the real world, the chemistry that was burning white-hot would slowly fade away and I'd go back to my safe, ordinary life again. Do I risk it all and tell him my secrets, or do I keep everything hidden so I can walk away from him once the threat to my life is over? Maybe the hot, stubborn, ultra-intelligent hacker is exactly what I need in my life, but can a woman like me ever be enough for a man like Gavin?

From NY Times and USA Today bestselling authors J.S. Scott and Cali MacKay...a new dark, steamy romance about two people who never should have met... Anna What are the chances of me getting kidnapped in a small town in the foothills of Colorado by a man who is the subject of an international manhunt? I'd say probably the same odds as winning the lottery...several times. Except I wasn't that lucky. I moved to this tiny town and opened a small diner to find some peace. I used to love staring at those beautiful, majestic, snow-capped mountain peaks. Now all that sight brings me is sorrow and heartache. Still, I'm here. I can't leave. I can't just run away like I wished I could. Then, on one cold, winter's evening, my entire world changes when a desperate man, one wanted for the rape and murder of a young woman in Seattle, drags me away from my diner and back to a dark place that I never wanted to go again. My kidnapper calls himself Phoenix. But I know who he really is. He's a cold-blooded murderer who would probably snuff out my life without one bit of remorse. As I remain his captive, dependent on his mercy, I have to pretend to trust him so I can try to make my escape. I'm defiant by nature; he wants me to submit. I hate the way my body reacts to him, craves him, but he considers that a victory. So one of us is going to lose this battle, and I'm not so certain the winner is going to be me....
