Shoshanna Evers

Latest Release: GINGER SNAP


If you were a book, what would your blurb be?

After her 100th coffee date, Shoshanna Evers is pretty sure she's met and disliked every eligible man in Los Angeles. Meeting guys on the internet obviously isn't working for her...too bad she still has one last blind date to go on before she can take down her online profile and call it quits.
Jeff's the complete opposite of every slick LA type she's met - and the whirlwind of lust and excitement surrounding them leads Jeff to propose after only six weeks of dating. Shoshanna says yes, but suddenly she realizes she's engaged to a complete stranger, and she may have just made the biggest mistake of her life. Can she get to know - and love - her fiance before the wedding?

Kendall Grace

Latest Release: SOUTHERN EXPOSURE


If you were a book, what would your blurb be?

Kendall Grace fancies herself a full-time romance writer, living in a hazy dream state full of hawt Southern men more than willing to do anything, and everything, she wants to create the perfect story. In reality, she works the nine-to-five, concealing her true passions, for if her coworkers knew, they’d never look at her the same way again. But honestly, the clandestine nature makes it that much more exciting.

Raised in the deep South, Kendall grew up with these intriguing creatures known as Southern gentlemen. And although not all of them can be classified as gentle, most can be called hot. In only the way a Southern man can be. So, hunkered down in her cubicle, Kendall for all appearances is doing her day job. But in actuality she is doing her latest hero. Uh… Her character is doing her latest hero. Yes, that’s what she meant.

Vonna Harper

Latest Release: COWBOY PICKUP


If you were a book, what would your blurb be?

Freedom! The opportunity to race barefoot through the tulips. Ah, that's what erotica writer Vonna Harper wants. Unfortunately, there's a rub. She doesn't want to hurt the tulips and watching her run isn't a pretty sight.

Fortunately, Vonna has another, much more attainable dream, and this one too can be done barefoot. Sunglasses on and the wind in her hair, she sits beside the latest macho hunk as he expertly maneuvers his sleek black Jeep over a remote logging road. Her hand strays to his thigh.

Their destination is unimportant. It’s the ride--both in and outside the Jeep--that stirs Vonna's blood.

Kaily Hart

Latest Release: PAY UP


If you were a book, what would your blurb be?

Kaily Hart, a seemingly straight-laced mother of four left corporate America and a high-powered, lucrative career to be a stay at home mom. Ha! That lasted about four weeks, during which time she realized she had a deeply repressed dream - to write. And romance at that! By day, Kaily plays conservative wife and soccer mom, but at night crafts hot and steamy tales of romance and love with gorgeous heroes who wouldn’t dream of leaving the toilet set up. Ever. She’s smart and sassy, at least in her own mind, and is trying her best to bring the alpha male solidly back to contemporary romance, one hot story at a time. Two years ago she never would have thought she’d be doing this, but now that she is? Well, you couldn’t pay her enough to do anything else.

Mr. Nina may not fall into the younger-man category, but he’s known the woman of his heart for a very long time. He has no doubt that he can sweet talk her away from those less-experienced men. A nice meal, a glass of wine and a little candlelight and Nina is putty in his hands.

Austin’s blond haired, blue-eyed gorgeousness is capped by a sweet personality and laid-back attitude. Unfortunately, while there’s passion, it’s not exactly what Lex had hoped for.

Enter bad boy, former rocker “Rott.” He’s got a past and a record. He’s got more attitude than an angry rhino. He’s got vices, tattoos, and hip length honey colored hair. He’s everything Austin is not. But Lex takes one look into his green eyes and is lost. Rott ignites a passion in her that Austin never could and the desire between them cannot be denied. Choosing between a sweet, sure thing and the wildest ride of her life is a dilemma Lex never thought to face. Life with the volatile Rott promises everything her heart longs for and everything her common sense balks at. But when she takes a chance on him, she discovers that even the wildest heart can be tamed by love.
