Mulan's ready to get down to business. But when it comes to love, she hasn't got a clue.

As the right hand of her father's private equity company, Fa Mulan knows what it takes to succeed as a woman in a man's world: work twice as hard, be twice as smart, and burp twice as loud as any of the other finance bros she works with. So when her father unexpectedly falls ill in the middle of a critical acquisition, she is determined to see it through. There's just one hitch: the family company in question is known for its ultra masculine whiskey brand, and the brood of old-fashioned aunts, uncles, and cousins who run it--lead by the dedicated but overworked Shang--will only trust Mulan's father, Fa Zhou, with the future of their business.

Rather than fail the deal and her father, Mulan pretends she's Fa Zhou. Since they've only corresponded over email, how hard could it be to keep things moving in his absence?

But the email leads to a face-to-face meeting, which leads to an invitation to a week long retreat at Shang's family ranch. One meeting she can handle, but a whole week of cattle wrangling, axe-throwing, and learning proper butchering techniques, all while trying to convince Shang's dubious family that this young woman is the powerful private equity CEO they've been negotiating with? Not so much--especially as she finds it harder and harder to ignore the undeniable spark between her and Shang.

Can she keep her head in the game and make her father proud, all while trying not to fall into a trough, or in love with Shang?

College sweethearts reunite to restore more than just an old inn in this new romance by Katie Shepard, author of Sweeten the Deal.

When's the best time to tell your ex that you want them back?

Probably not in the middle of a Category 3 hurricane. But when Broadway actor Tom Wilczewski is about to dive into the floodwaters to rescue his co-lead, he calls the ex-wife he hasn't seen in ten years to swear he still loves her and ask for a chance to make things right.

Two months later, Rose Kelly is tired of seeing pictures of her ex-husband Tom rescuing Hollywood darling Boyd Kellagher. Not that she's jealous. Of course not. She's far too busy taking care of her elderly aunt and worrying about the storm damage to the family B&B on Martha's Vineyard to miss the love of her life. But after belatedly hearing Tom's voicemail, Rosie asks him to follow through on his promises for once by helping her fix the inn. Thinking this is the perfect way to win her back, Tom agrees.

When they get there, things are...less than ideal. Rosie expected the inn to be in better shape. She expected it to have more beds. And she expected more help from her actual family--not from Tom and the rest of his Broadway cast. But Rosie begins to wonder if maybe the life she expected isn't the one she really wants. If she and Tom can repair the inn together, can they possibly repair the damage to the relationship they both thought was long gone?

Between the pretend husband, borrowed goats, a made-up holiday, and Libby's very real attraction to Jefferson, it's anyone's guess which lie will blow their cover first . . . especially since Lillibet isn't the only one with something to hide.

But as a down-on-her-luck girl getting a second chance, Stella knows how to make a good opportunity last. So she gives it her all, working without stopping. Trying to resist temptation, because she's just window shopping.

When Athena Greydon's fiancé ends their engagement, she has no choice but to move into the Spite House she recklessly bought him as a wedding gift. Which is a problem, for several reasons: The house, originally built as a brick middle finger to the neighbors, is only ten feet wide. Her ex's home is literally attached to hers. And Dr. Matthew Vine the Freaking Third--AKA the uptight, judgy jerk who convinced his younger brother to leave her--is living on her other side, only a four-foot alley away.

If she has to see Matthew every time she looks out her windows, she might as well have some fun with the situation. By, say, playing erotic audiobooks at top volume with those windows open. A woman living in a Spite House is basically obligated to get petty payback however she can, right?

Unfortunately, loathing Matthew proves more difficult than anticipated. He helps her move. He listens. And he's kind of...hot? Dammit.

Matthew may not regret ending his brother's engagement, but he does regret what the breakup has done to Athena. He'll help her however he can. If that means finding her work, fine. If that means enduring nightly steamy story hours, so be it. And if that means watching Athena through their windows a bit too often and caring about her a bit too much...well, nothing can come of it. She'll never forgive him. Even if she did, how could he ever tell his beloved younger brother the truth--that Matthew wants the very same woman he encouraged Johnny to leave?

The Voice We Find is the third book in Nicole Deese's Fog Harbor Romance Series for fans of clean, faith-based stories, deaf and hard of hearing representation, workplace romance, books about books, found family, and sibling bonds.

A tale of four souls...and the effects of near tragedy...

When Brianna Steel and Jesse Pike hold each other for what they fear may be the last moment of their lives, they realize they're meant to be together for the long haul.

But for Brianna's cousin, David Simpson, and Jesse's sister, Madeline Pike, the event has more far-reaching consequences.

Dave, after helping his father and his Uncle Jonah deal with horrific happenings on the Steel property, needed a vacation. Joining his cousins on Dragonlock's European tour seemed like a no-brainer, and hooking up with Maddie Pike was some decadent icing on the cake. But after looking his mortality in the eye, he's questioning everything about the path he's on--including his budding relationship with Maddie.

Maddie, too, is evaluating her own dreams and aspirations, and she desperately seeks a deeper connection to the world around her. Is a relationship with Dave, who she's been crushing on forever, in the cards? She's not sure where he stands, but she's having a difficult time keeping her distance because the chemistry between them is hot and sizzling.

But in the end, a family member's illness and a near-fatal accident could be their undoing.

He saw what she did. Now, he holds the power...

The ruthless halls of a mafia university are no place for the diminutive and gentle Cat. She barely survived her first year at school, at the cost of her innocence.

Cat did something bad, and Dean Yenin saw it. Now she's being blackmailed by the most vicious bully at Kingmakers.

He offers her a devil's bargain: his silence and protection...if Cat belongs to him.

Dean's twisted games of dominance have Cat doing things she never thought she'd do... But even the most sadistic games have rules, and Dean's fascination with Cat might just be his undoing.

At Kingmakers, love is a weapon used by the most lethal players. But brokenness can lead to unexpected strength, and sometimes, the one who holds the power is the one most vulnerable to its spell...

Wild hearts, ruthless games.

In the adrenaline-fueled world of Kingmakers, Sabrina Gallo stands as a force of nature. Untamed and fiercely independent, she's more storm than woman, captivating and terrifying all who cross her path.

Bratva bad boy Adrik Petrov has finally met his match. Sabrina won't be easily claimed--but for Adrik, the thrill of the chase is as intoxicating as the prize. He's set on capturing her heart, no matter the cost.

Enticing her away from school, Adrik lures Sabrina into Moscow's underworld. In this deadly environment, the stakes are only higher and tensions flare between this passionate pair who never learned to control their tempers...or their destructive impulses.

Can Adrik tame Sabrina Gallo, or will he find himself consumed by the very fire he seeks to control?
