She’s just his secretary…until he needs someone on his arm to convince his mother that he can take over the family business.

Callie:
Dawson Houser makes sure everyone who comes into the office knows I’m “just his secretary.” Heck, I’ve even said it to suppliers and CEOs when they smile knowingly at the two of us during business meetings. He scowls and grumps around the office afterward, as if the two of us dating is the most ridiculous thing on the planet.

When Lila Houser comes to town with her faux furs and fashion sunglasses, she only has one question for her spoiled rotten son: When are you going to get married, Dawson, darling?

I expect him to laugh and tell her he’s never getting married. I mean, I’ve heard those exact words come out of his mouth. Instead, he pulls me to his side and says, “Maybe sooner than you think, Mother.”

Oh, that Lila Houser can make a woman feel two inches tall with a simple up-down look. I think I’m a pretty good catch…no matter what my last three boyfriends say.

When Lila says, “I thought Callie was just your secretary,” I suddenly want to prove her dead wrong…

It’s been ten years since their divorce, but Master Gavin never got over his ex. He’s been putting in the work and making himself into the man she deserves and now it’s time to win her back. Leah knows she’s still hung up on her ex-husband, but it’s time to put herself back out there if she’s ever going to move on. She’s ready to date again… only to discover that Gavin is determined she doesn’t date anyone but him.

Caught in a Fake Engagement with My Best Friend? Hell, Why Not?

Since being named Aspen’s “Most Eligible Bachelor”, there are countless women vying for my attention and money. But secretly, all I have ever wanted was Aubrey, my best friend since childhood. She is the perfect woman to me. But I don’t want to risk my friendship by declaring myself to her.

When Aubrey’s dream of becoming a wedding planner hits a snag with snobby momzillas, I offer a solution: a fake engagement. Elevate her social status and get the unwanted women off my back. It’s a win-win, right? Wrong.

The more time I spend pretending to be engaged, the more I realize how very deeply I’ve fallen for her. And damn, that sexy night we were snowed in overnight at a mountain cabin sealed my feelings for her. But now, as a stalker threatens her safety, I’ll do anything to protect the woman I secretly love, even if it means risking our friendship forever.

Caught between a fake engagement and my real feelings, I’m playing a dangerous game. But as the stakes rise, I’m forced to confront the truth: I can’t imagine my life without her by my side, and I’ll fight to keep her safe.
