Thereâs a fine line between love and hateâ¦
Tess Walker is game for anythingâexcept world-renowned photographer Beau Allen, the guy who inadvertently sent her life into a downward spiral. It has taken Tess years to find herself and become a person she can be proud of. Now Beau is back and making a play for her heartâ¦a play sheâs not sure she wants him to make. The more he pushes, the more her walls crumble, and Tess soon discovers that his sweet kisses and even sweeter words might be just what sheâs been looking for in life.

Living out of a suitcase isnât ideal, but heâs perfectly content. That is, until a beautiful woman barrels her way into his life and has him second-guessing everything. Tess is nothing like the women heâs used to and everything like the woman he wants. Grounded, strong, funny, sweet, and sexy. Did he mention sexy? Her curves make it hard for him to think, and his lifeâs mission soon becomes making her laugh and sigh and moan, because he really likes it when she moans. But Beau isnât used to sticking around. Still, heâs hoping sheâll give him a reason to stay.
Doesnât she?

Title: The Break-Up Bet
Author: Cat Carmine
Genre: Standalone Romantic Comedy
Release Date: January 31, 2019
Blurb
Never make a bet with a man who plays to win...
Especially not a man like handsome, arrogant Connor Pratt.
AKA the huge PITA who’s currently crashing in my spare room.
AKA my brother’s best friend since they were about six.
AKA the one guy who still makes me feel like an awkward tongue-tied loser.
But when Connor moved in, I got a glimpse of another side of him. Because, like me, Connor’s going through a nasty break-up. And, like me, he’s just doing whatever he can to get through it.
Unfortunately, his method involves drinking alarming amounts of whiskey and watching a lot of, um … movies … that make every inch of my skin flush.
I’m just trying to be helpful when I tell him that he should try my way: copious amounts of baked goods, sappy romantic comedies, and late nights spent whining with girlfriends.
But I should have known Connor would take that as a challenge.
Now, he says he’ll try my way of dealing with a break-up … but only if I agree to try his. Six months rent to the person whose method works best.
We call it the break-up bet. And I’m going to win. Except right now, it feels like there’s a whole lot more at stake than just rent money…

Title: Everything's Better with Kimberly
Author: Lucy Eden
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: January 31, 2019
Blurb
Kimberly Simmons is gorgeous, brilliant, and way out of my league. Sheâs definitely not the type to fall for a guy who walked away from his family's fortune to become an architect. Good thing, too, because she works for Wolfe Industries, making her completely off-limits. Nailing this pitch to Wolfeâs CEO is exactly what I need to make my bosses forget about the last time I mixed business with pleasure. Too bad she has the most beautiful brown eyes and dazzling smile Iâve ever seen. Too bad I canât stop staring.
Adam Price is a talented rising star architect at Will and Peking Designs. His newest design submission for The Wolfe Industries Caribbean Expansion is set to dazzle my CEO. If Adam's design wins, with my help, I could get promoted, which means his big strong arms and gorgeous lips are strictly forbidden. Itâs a good thing, too, because he has a reputation for leaving a trail of broken hearts all over Manhattan and Iâm pretty sure I couldn't survive a second heartbreak. Too bad every word he says makes me smile. Too bad he gives me a sense of calm I haven't felt in a long time.
Keeping their relationship strictly professional for the sake of their jobs was the perfect excuse to stay away from each other. Too bad fate and undeniable chemistry have other plansâ¦
This standalone, workplace/forced proximity romance features characters from the previous novellas Everythingâs Better With You and Cherishing the Goddess, is full of alphas and steam, and has NO cheating.

Excerpt
âIâm sorry to interrupt you, but are you Adam Price?â It was his turn to be shocked and he smiled again.
âI am. How did you know that?â
The Man-Whore. I was sitting next to the Man-Whore.
âJust a guess.â I shrugged.
âWell, I assume from your sudden change of expression, my reputation precedes me.â
My poker face needed some serious work. I tried to plaster on a professional smile. âYou studied architecture at The Pratt Institute for both undergrad and grad school. Youâve worked on an impressive number of international projects before becoming the youngest senior architect at Will and Peking Design. Now, youâre on your way to Barbados to pitch WP for a hospitality project for Wolfe Industries.â
âThatâs pretty impressive and spot on.â He nodded appreciatively. âWho are you?â
âThanks,â I said with a nod, feeling like Iâd dodged a very uncomfortable bullet. âIâm Kimberly Simmons. I work for Wolfe. Iâll be working with you on the pitch.â

âAre you sure?â Because she isnât acting like it.
âYeah, this will solve the questioning.â That doesnât sound so great.
I rock back on my heels. âAbout?â
Splotches of red stain her cheeks. âAh, well... if this,â she motions between us, âwas heading in a romantic direction.â
I feel the blood drain from my face. âWhat do you mean?â
âIf weâre living together, the potential of us dating is zippo. Weâll be roommates and friends, but thatâs all. Otherwise it will be awkward and tense and blah. No, thanks. Setting this boundary will cut out the possibility.â
I choke on the brick lodged in my throat. âWait, what?â
âCan you imagine the mess weâd be stuck in if things went sour? Better to not chance it, right?â
No.
No, no, no.
I blink slowly, trying to process her words. Is this an unwritten rule I wasnât aware of? And what, now Iâm trapped in the friend-zone? I avert my eyes, glaring at a neon sign stuck to the far wall. An outcome that doesnât involve us as a couple seems impossible. I rapidly search for a counter-argument, begging for a way out of this mess.
What the hell happens now?

Excerpt
My eyes followed Paige through the mirror as she walked over to the weight rack. I didnât want to include her in everything that went down for her safety, but it was the only way to prevent her from taking off again, trying to do it on her own.
She stopped by the five-pound weights, wistfully dragging her fingers over them before picking up one in each hand.
My eyebrows arched. âWhat are you doing?â
âItâs been a month. My arms are weak. I just need toââshe bit her lip as she curled first one and then the other dumbbellââwork them out a little.â
I walked up to her and plucked the weights from her hands before setting them back onto the rack. âThis isnât starting slow. Two-pound weights are. Better yet, no weights at all.â I touched her stomach. âYou were a personal trainer. You know to use your core even when youâre only doing curls. With the added weight, itâll be too much stress on your stomach.â
âIâve been doing some wall pushups and a few other exercises this week, you know that. But they arenât enough.â
âI know, but I donât want you to push too hard too fast. If you pull something, itâs going to take you twice as long to recover.â I bent and retrieved my weights from the floor and set them on the rack. âWe have to go anyway. That was Stuart. Weâre meeting with him and Langley.â My arm dropped around her shoulders as I guided her to the door.
âYou know, being my boyfriend doesnât give you the right to tell me what to do.â
I chuckled. âI still know whatâs best for you. But if you really want to work out your arms, I could think of a few ways. Massaging my back. Rubbing myââ
The door to the gym opened, revealing a guard standing in the hallway, so I lowered my head and whispered in her ear, âCock.â
Over the past few days, sheâd started to do this thing where she casually cupped my dick and balls, and it had been driving me fucking nuts. It didnât help that I got embarrassingly hard every time she touched me. Like I was getting this second.
âYou suck,â she murmured, and I peered down to see she was smiling.
âNo. You suck.â She didnât need to see the desire in my eyes to know where my mind was.
âMaybe I will.â She looked up, and my eyes grew hazy with desire as we continued out the door and down the hall.
This pent-up need to fuck her was making me fear the moment I finally did. Hard, possessive. Caveman-style, I was sure. I was also sure her body wasnât ready for that.
âWhat am I going to do with that mouth?â I muttered under my breath, my cock throbbing.
âI have a few ideas,â she said as a matter-of-factly.
I laughed. âTell me. Later. In detail.â My hand circled around the nape of her neck, and I caressed. âI would love to hear them.â

Excerpt
Suddenly, something touches my shoulder, and I freak out.
I shriek, but my voice is blocked by a hand covering my mouth.
Adrenaline fills my veins, panic bubbling to the surface. I try to spin on my chair, but canât, because someoneâs holding me down firmly. Strong arms with a scent that reminds me of ⦠soot.
âItâs me, donât scream,â he whispers.
Itâs Brandon.
He leans back and I immediately stand up and turn to face him. âBrandon! Jesus.â
âSorry. Didnât wanna scare you,â he says, a little too loud.
I close my eyes and let out a sigh. âGod, could youâve been anymore creepy?â
âI could ⦠If I wanted to,â he says, raising one brow, mocking me.
I narrow my eyes, but my body remains rigid. Tense. Itâs like my brain has already decided for me that I canât trust him. At least, not after what happened at the bonfire. âWhat are you doing here?â I whisper, still upset that he jumped on me like that. And even though he says I shouldnât be scared, my skin still prickles where he touched me.
âI just wanted to see you, thatâs all,â he says with a way too cocky voice.
âShh â¦â I say. âQuiet. Weâre close to the farmhouse.â
He shrugs. âSo?â
âI donât want my dad to hear us. Heâs in there with my brothers.â
âAhh â¦â He takes a step towards me. âYouâre afraid heâll find us here ⦠together?â
âDuh. You shouldnât be here,â I say, leaning back, as if I instinctively know not to let him get close. I donât know why, but ⦠it feels different. Like Iâm playing with fire and I donât wanna get burned.
When he tries to caress my cheek, I turn my face slightly. He pauses. âAre you ⦠afraid of me?â
Maybe. I donât know the answer. I feel like I should. What he did was wrong. Horrible.
But I know why he did it.
After all those years of Derek tormenting Brandon, he was bound to explode. But I never expected it to be this uncontrollable, this explosive. This ⦠dangerous.
âShould I be?â I ask, licking my lips.
The half-smile that forms on his face has my heart skipping a beat. Fuck. I shouldnât. I really shouldnât. Not when heâs like this ⦠so volatile and aggressive ⦠and sexy.
âI canât answer that for you,â he says after a while. He places his hands on the workbench, trapping me inside. âI donât want you to be, though.â
âThatâs easy for you to say â¦â I whisper, looking down at my feet. Jesus. Why am I such a pussy when it comes to him? I should speak up, for fuckâs sake. Stop being a fucking whimpering virgin who canât handle a little touchy feely.
âHey â¦â He tips up my chin with one finger. âIâm not going to hurt you, I promise.â
I nod softly, as if he just asked me whether or not I believe him. Iâm not even sure I do. I just know I want to, for my sake ⦠and for his.
âBut ⦠what happened at the bonfire â¦â I mutter.
I donât know how to begin my sentence or how to end it. Just like I donât know where we began and where we should end.
Maybe now.
Maybe never.
Shit.
Why do I feel this way around him?
Why is it that when a guy loses control, I want him even more?
Am I that obsessed with bad boys? Jesus, help me.

Excerpt
Pouring milk into my mug, I watch the black and white colors swirl together until they turn a pretty caramel. I didnât sleep well, and the creamy mix is exactly what the doctor ordered. Hurrying, I flick the sugar packet and dump its contents. The door behind me opens as I toss the spoon into the sink and lift the mug to my lips. The satisfying liquid warms my insides, and I canât help my sigh even if I tried.
âRough night?â a velvety voice asks.
I take another sip of my glorious cup of joe before turning toward Mario. He started working in the Reference Department three months ago and has featured in a few of my dirty dreams. Heâs gorgeous and about six feet three inches. Dark, tall, and handsome would describe him to a T.
I shrug and force my mind from the gutter. He brushes past me and grabs the spoon I just discarded. The first time I saw him do this, I yelped in protest, but it seemed he really was another gross college guy.
One with full kissable lips.
âYouâre quiet this morning,â he says and leans against the counter next to me.
After the episode with Tristan last night, I canât help but stare a second longer. âNo, just a date.â The words spill from my mouth. âI mean, I was up late.â
Marioâs mug freezes halfway to his lips, and an eyebrow raises as he stares at me.
âFuck!â I slap a hand over my mouth in horror. My heart races, and I know my cheeks are bright pink. âI gotta go.â I squealed and run out of the break room.
Great job, Izzy! Now he thinks you were up all night fucking.
Calling myself a string of insults, I take the elevator down to the copy office. See, we both work in our college library in different departments. I keep the copy machines and printers stocked with paper and toner, and Mario does whatever the students in Reference do.
We both tend to be in the break room grabbing coffee in the mornings at the same time. If Iâm lucky, I get a glimpse of him when I do my rounds. Our conversations arenât long, usually revolving around our mutual love of coffee. His doesnât include milk, but his love of coffee runs as deep as mine.
I walk around the corner and sigh with relief when I find the door closed. My boss, Jerry, isnât in yet, and I know heâll tease me if he spots the blush still on my cheeks. Jerry is old enough to be my dad and is the best boss Iâve had, not that there have been many.
Kicking the doorstop under the wooden door, I prop it open. I set my mug on the long counter and take a quick peek at the staplers and empty the pencil sharpener set out for students to pop in and use. My body goes into autopilot, and Marioâs lips come to mind. I wonder if they are they as soft as they look?
I reluctantly remind myself heâs out of my league. Itâs not that I donât think Iâm pretty. I am, but Iâm not the girl all the boys come sniffing around. Theyâll look in my direction, but few take the next step. Of those who do, none are as handsome as Mario.
