Rhys doesn't know what he wants anymore, but he knows he wants to be in Myers Bluff and he wants to make things right with his brother, and maybe his ex-boyfriend too. The only problem is... he doesn't know how to do any of that.

Beckett has a bad job and big dreams, and he's not going to let either of those things hold him back. He definitely doesn't have time to deal with a man like Rhys St. George, but there's something magnetic about the way too-rich-for-his-own-good man that Beckett can't deny.

Wesley

After a night of drinking with my lifelong best friend ended with an unexpected kiss, my entire life flipped upside down. I ran away from home-and him-without so much as a goodbye. Moving to California was a rash decision, sure, but not even the palm trees and the ocean are enough to make the pain of losing my best friend manageable. It wasn't his fault the kiss brought up all kinds of feelings I wasn't ready for, just like it's not my brother's fault when he introduces me to his stupid hot co-worker, Colin. Bringing up more feelings...that I'm still not ready for.

Colin

It's been eight years since I first kissed a man. Eight years and more that I've been living in the closet, too scared of coming out and dashing my mom's hopes for a daughter-in-law and grandkids of her own. I know it's dangerous to indulge, but Hendrix's younger brother, Wesley, and the feelings he stirs up inside of me, remind me of my past. Worse than that, they promise me a future that's always felt out of reach.

There's too much at stake between us. Neither of us have really been with another man before, Hendrix would kill me if he discovered I was making out with his barely legal brother, and my parents would be crushed by the news. But if being with Wesley has taught me anything, it's that all things will come together in good time.

Hendrix

What's the only thing more annoying than my years-too-young neighbor?

The way I want him more than air.

There are plenty of things I don't like about my new home in California, and my neighbor, Miles, is at the top of the list. He's smug and arrogant, he speaks out of turn. And even though I should have learned my lesson about fast-talking, younger, dominant men when I broke up with my ex, I want him. For better or worse, Miles and I are on the same page and that's why we decide there's no harm in taking things between us someplace a little more private.

Good thing it's only a physical connection between us because I could never be with a man like him for the long term...

Miles

Can I tease my well-dressed and thick-thighed older neighbor into bed?

I'm not sure, but there's no harm in trying.

There's never been a man who twists me up inside the way Hendrix does, and from the very first time he tells me yes, I know I'm going to demand a thousand more agreements out of his gorgeous mouth before I'm anywhere close to being done with him. He says he only wants me for my body, but it's not long before things between us feel anything but casual. Hendrix thinks I can't tell he's being cautious with me, that I don't know his worries about the past repeating itself are a constant threat in his head.

Joke's on him, though. Hendrix makes me want to be a better man and I'm not going to stop until I prove that I'm worthy of a partner like him, even if I stumble more than once along the way.

What's the only thing scarier than falling in love with the older man who's determined not to trust me?

Giving him the space to discover he can.

Necessary Space is a 76,000 word age gap romance where coffee is a love language, annoying neighbors become lovers, kneeling is so much more than an act of submission, and love can be found all in good time.

Respect his mind. Protect his body. Cherish his heart. These sacred vows forever bond two men with love and devotion, but in the ancient city of Arachovia, such a union comes with a price.

Matthias, the first-born son of the House of Helianth, has one path to inherit his family's power and wealth: marrying a respectable woman and fathering children to carry the bloodline. Despite his obligations, the young noble jeopardizes his family's honor to devote himself to his lover, Anton. But when Anton refuses to sacrifice his own familial duty and marries a random noblewoman, Matthias finds himself without a lover, title, or future.

Acting with little thought for his safety, Matthias condemns himself to the bloody, demanding, and often brief life of a soldier. His survival will depend on mastery of an arcane weapon, trust in the other soldiers of his unit, and a captain with a mysterious past.

Matthias soon finds a renewed sense of purpose alongside his shield-brothers, a sacred order of magic-wielding priestesses on the battlefield, and another chance to experience true love. But when the machinations of a neighboring city-state and a group of ambitious nobles threaten the peace they have fought so hard to maintain, Matthias and his companions discover their actions will either save their world or destroy it.

Falcon: Three years ago I arrived at the scene of an art heist to find Kingston Wilde tied to a radiator, claiming to be an innocent bystander in the wrong place at the wrong time. It was only later I learned he was actually the elusive art thief I'd been tracking for years. And I was the one who'd let him sweet-talk his way out of my grasp. Ever since, I've made it my mission to get my hands on him again, and this time I don't plan on letting go.

Unfortunately, fate has other plans. A priceless artifact has gone missing, and King is the only one who can help recover it. I thought nothing could be worse than being forced to work with the egotistical SOB, but I was wrong. Falling for the charming art thief in the middle of an operation is way, way worse.

King: The key to being a good art thief is knowing when to call it quits. After one close call too many, I decide that time is now and head home to Hobie, Texas, intending to hang up my lock picks for good. Unfortunately, the FBI has other plans. Agent Dirk Falcon approaches me with an offer I can't refuse: full immunity for my past crimes in exchange for helping him with one last job.

The catch? The job involves stealing from the very man who taught me everything I know. The same man who double-crossed me years ago. Pulling this off means trusting Falcon and his team, but how do I trust the sexy agent when he's staked his career on taking me down?

King Me is the seventh book in the Forever Wilde series but you do not have to have read any of the others to enjoy it.

The best mixtape always has a mix of favorites on it- songs playing in the background at Jude and Derek's wedding or when Simone finally falls in love. Loud beats pounding the dance floor when Blue tries to seduce Tristan in public, or sleepy notes written late at night while Jude is on tour. Strains of familiar music bring heart-gripping memories rushing back in-memories of the first time Tilly meets Senator Cannon, the weekend a mysterious new family member arrives at a snowy cabin expecting solitude but finding a sexy lumberjack instead, or the winter Teddy "accidentally" strands Jamie in Tibet.

Rowe Prince is a lying liar who windmills into my life in full color, claiming to be Sterling Chase, a quirky, eccentric billionaire... and founder of the company I created.

Two can play at the lying game, though, and I'm not about to let some burrito-delivering, floppy-haired virgin from Indiana best me at a game I was born to play.

So I do him one better and pretend to be Sterling Chase's new assistant. I'll teach him a lesson that will hopefully wind us both up in bed... with nothing but the truth between us.

But it turns out his shameless lies are enchanting... unintentionally hilarious... and make it all too easy to forget the truth...

Until I learn that this cutie's intent is to defraud the company I've spent years building. I have to choose: risk the company or say goodbye to the man I'm falling for. A guy who just might be...

The Prince of Lies

I didn't mean to stow away on the yacht, I swear.

My first mistake was going home with the jerk at the bar, but in my defense, Prescott said he owned the Worthington-ninety feet of sleek, yachty perfection-and if I could get the chief mate's job, I'd have an excuse to stay on board and keep avoiding my family and my future.

How was I supposed to know he was the owner's cheating, gold-digging almost brother-in-law, or that I'd end up stuffed in a closet when the ship left the harbor?

When the real owner finds me and offers me a different job-being his fake boyfriend on a cruise through the British Virgin Islands to tempt Prescott to reveal his cheating ways-that's when I make my second mistake: I agree.

Turns out, Jonathan Worthington isn't just a billionaire, he's funny and generous and a little bit of a control freak. He's also six feet of sleek, gorgeous silver fox perfection, and suddenly, it's not just his yacht I'm lusting over.

Worth thinks I'm way too young and flighty for anything more serious than spending the week in his bed... but if you believe we won't fall in love before the cruise is over, I have a yacht in the Caribbean to sell you.

The man asked me to valet his damn car.

Look, I left LA for a reason. I've had my fill of big Hollywood stars and their even bigger egos. I want something genuine. Something real. And it doesn't get any realer than being the new sheriff of Aster Valley, Colorado.

That is, until entitled Finn Heller appears on the scene, handing me the keys to his convertible like I'm his personal servant.

The former child star and wannabe action hero is the hottest thing I've ever seen. He's also a snarky party animal with legions of adoring fans and attitude for days.

Or so I thought.

The longer the film crew stays in town, the more I begin to wonder if Finn is hiding his true self, one that's as beautiful inside as out. He's a star alright, but the kind that shines bright enough to light up the night sky... the kind I want to make a wish on.

A wish Finn will find a way to make things work with me, even if it means his next role is my very own leading man.
