Be My Sailor (Hot Bad Boys #3) by Lauren Wood

Her graceful innocence surprised me.

The way she stared at me with her intensity made me so hard I could barely control myself from taking her in front of everyone.

I wanted to feel her skin against mine, her warmth against my heat.

I wanted her to scream my name in her voice that had the ability to turn Ash into fire.

I craved to corrupt her, take away the innocence she’d prized for twenty-one years. Make this one week unforgettable in her memory.

Life gives you a lot but takes away even more. I learnt this a long time ago, but never had I wanted my little daughter to face it. I have money, a lot of it, but even that couldn’t save her mother from death.

Now, I need to bring back the brighter part of life she’s lost the vision of. I want to see her truly smile again.

A week long cruise to the Bermuda might achieve this.

But then I saw her.

And she did come for me, multiple times; giving me the solace I didn’t know I needed.

But there are people I don’t trust in here. The Journey of the deep blue might not be as pretty as it is supposed to.

Is this solace going to be another thing I’d lose to life?

This is a full-length 40,000 word novel, standalone Single Dad, Virgin Romance. No cheating or cliffhangers. HEA guaranteed!!! Bonus content included.

Ashleigh Thyne was a man haunted by a bevy of things, most of them the hollow echo of memories he'd buried long ago.

For three years he's tried and failed at compartmentalizing the day that she packed up every possession she had and left him. Polite, distant and aloof had become the basis of their relationship. But with each phone call and holiday spent together, accompanied by dreams that leave tents in his sheets come morning, Ashleigh begins to realize that polite, distant and aloof aren't working anymore. Adding insult to injury is Mackenzie's engagement to someone that Ashleigh hates on principle alone. What's a man to do when the first and only woman he'll ever love is attempting to replace him and his pride is finally on its last leg? Ashleigh doesn't know, but he'll be damned if he allows someone else to claim what belongs solely to him and always will.

Description:

Fate brought us together, but the sins of my past threaten to rip us apart.

In a city ruled by corruption and powerful men, only the ruthless survive.

And that’s just what I am. Like father, like son. The life I lead is riddled with black tie affairs and dark secrets.

A simple mistake destroyed a woman I knew nothing about. She was only a name and a beautiful face in a photograph. Her fairytale life was shattered, but I didn’t give a damn.

Or at least I thought I didn’t care, until she stumbled into me.
One look, and I was tempted.
One taste, and I was hooked.

It wasn’t supposed to turn into this. She’s a good girl from the Upper East Side, innocent and naive. She’s ashamed to be moving on so quickly.

Especially with a man like me. Someone who could tarnish her sterling reputation and make the crack in her picture-perfect frame splinter even deeper.


We both know this was only meant to be a one-time thing. But I’ll never have my fill of her.


Now she has me wrapped around her little finger, using me to get through her pain. I’m addicted to her soft moans and the way her nails scratch down my back.

I’m starting to need her just as much as she needs me.

I’ll protect her from the truth as long as I can.

But even if she finds out, I’m not letting her leave me.


She’s mine now.

Unleashed: Bad Boy Fighter Romance (Fighting for Gisele #1) by Emily Jane Trent

Micah Rinaldi is the ultimate bad boy!

He’s an underground fighter who drinks too much, gambles in high-stakes poker games, and isn’t afraid to flaunt the rules.

He is all that Gisele Shelton wants, yet everything she vows to avoid. But Micah has other ideas.

"Gisele had been in Micah’s arms, his lips grazing hers, yet she hadn’t let him kiss her. That would have been too much. If she’d allowed that, there would have been no possibility of leaving. That one kiss would have swallowed her up, and all her good intentions would have evaporated. But she couldn’t forget what it felt like to be with him. Gisele had spent one unforgettable evening with him, and could have had more. But she’d blown it. Her friend Abby had been right. She must be crazy."

This bad boy fighter romance has unexpected twists and turns. Gisele swears off bad boys, until one sexy fighter captures her heart.

Just for Now Audible Audiobook – Unabridged Abbi Glines (Author)

An insatiable attraction heats to the boiling point in this steamy book set in the shore town of Sea Breeze from the author of the white-hot The Vincent Boys.

Preston is one bad boy. And Amanda has harbored a crush on him for forever. When she finally makes her move on him, it does not end well. But still, she can't resist him. Especially now that he seems to be pursuing her, too.

No one wants them to be together. Not Amanda's brother Marcus, who is on the verge of his marriage to Low, and definitely not any of Preston's buddies. They know way too much about Preston's dark side. Even Preston realizes he's not good enough for someone like her.

But Amanda believes there is more to Preston than his bad boy persona, and she is determined to unearth what he's hiding behind his seductive blue eyes - secrets that could explain his actions. Secrets Amanda might not be able to forgive.

Yet the dangerous attraction persists...and neither Preston nor Amanda is going to deny it.
