My dad is in big trouble. He owes money to the most powerful man on the East Coast, and he can't pay. When I approach Mr. Connolly and try to take over the loan, he has a different idea. He's willing to wipe off the debt if I submit to him. I have to do what he commands, when he commands it. I think this over-the-top alpha male is a little obsessed with me. Good thing I love every second of it...

I really don’t know why I’m here. The excessive drinking, the half-naked bodies, the horrible decisions being made. So, when my friends throw me on stage for a wet T-shirt contest, I nearly die. Hundreds of people are watching as the MC approaches with the water jugs to show off my jugs. That’s when I see him. Jackson. Charging through the crowd. Then, I feel his hands on me, grabbing me, throwing me over his shoulder, stealing me away. He’s the rich owner of the hotel and he’s not having any of this. He still wants me to get wet, but it will be for an audience of one.

Five years ago, I had the night of my life with Harris Sutton. Out of all the people in the bar, the famous hockey player chose me. He was in town for a game and when he left, he took my virginity with him. And he unknowingly left me with a souvenir. Five years later, my souvenir is my whole world. A five-year-old boy that I never told him about. Lucas. We’re happy and comfortable in our little life. I’ve moved on and settled into the grind of single motherhood.

There was a fire in the break room. And I started it. Mr. Wallis is going to kill me. He takes one look at me and my blushing cheeks and says he's going to punish me his way. We're far enough from civilization that no one can hear me scream. Or moan. Or beg for more.

It's been eight years since I've been stranded on this desert island. Eight long years of eating the same food, walking along the same beach, staring at the same trees all day long. But everything changes when a young, beautiful girl washes up on my shore. Her plane crashed in the ocean. She's stranded on the island now. This is my island and that means she belongs to me. I'll never be bored again. Not with those delicious curves and that pretty face. This desert island just got a whole lot more interesting. With her here, it just became a paradise.

I've been in love with Sebastian Kemp since the second grade. Yes, the Sebastian Kemp. World famous hockey player. International playboy. Gorgeous heartthrob. I know, right? Get in line. I've been best friends with his younger sister since grade two, but I was convinced that he forgot I was alive. That's why I was so surprised when I turned on the news and saw my name and face all over it, saying that we were engaged. He shows up out of nowhere.

It's my first day as the new reporter covering New Zealand's famous rugby team. I'm an American who knows nothing about rugby, but after taking one step into the locker room after the game, I'm a huge fan. These massive tough men are true alphas. And there's one who stands taller than the rest. Akea Saluni. The Samoan god. Covered in tribal tattoos, this chiseled man has muscles for days. He puts the moan in Samoan. He makes the Rock look like a pebble. He brings me to my knees. And once this possessive man lays his dark eyes on me, that's exactly where I'm going to stay.

He's mean. And grumpy. When he's on the ice, he's the most violent player out there. But there's something about him I just can't shake. There's a sweetness hiding under that gruff, brute exterior. A little boy peeking out who wants to come out and play. I never thought I'd be with someone like Tucker McKinstry. But once I get past that rough hard shell, I can't imagine being with anyone else.

I'm a city girl. I don't do nature. It sucks. Bugs, bears, poison ivy. You name it, I hate it. So, when my niece asks me to accompany her on a camping trip, I'm horrified. But I'm a good aunt, so I say yes. Well, that was a huge mistake. One of many. When I get irrevocably lost from the group in the mountain wilderness, I think I've made a fatal mistake. Until Cyrus finds me. He's big, strong, and the toughest man these mountains have ever seen. But he goes absolutely weak when he sees me. An obsession takes over and he's not about to let me go.

She's the ultimate temptation. One that I can't touch yet one that I can't resist. Her father was my best friend in the Navy SEALs. He gave his life for mine. And how do I repay him? By lusting after his only daughter. The last time I saw her she was a kid. But she shows up on my doorstep in trouble and she's all grown up. All grown up and irresistible. But she's off-limits for an old grizzled mountain man like me. I owe it to her father to keep my hands to myself. But I want her.

I'm going to teach her what happens when you tempt a dominant professor. I shouldn't be looking at her like this. She's my student. She's 19-years-old. I'm way too old for her. Everything about this is inappropriate...The obsession has taken over. I'm its slave now. She's the teacher's pet and I'm about to give her a lesson she'll never forget. She'll learn that her professor is a possessive one and this won't be done after the semester ends. Because I'm never letting my pet go.

My home was burning. The mountains were on fire. Then, out of the ashes, came an angel. Kennedy. One look and I knew that I needed her. When I saw those stunning green eyes and delicious curves, I knew I would do anything to make her mine. But Kennedy isn’t here on her own. She’s surrounded by other convicts and a half-dozen armed guards. They’re part of a program using prisoners to help fight the wildfires. They’re determined to keep her in chains. I’m determined to break her free. Kennedy may be a convict, but I know she’s innocent. I can feel it.

They say romance died when society collapsed. They were right. It's brutal out here. My last date had no teeth. He took me to the Great Tire Fire and roasted a rat on a stick. I was convinced I was going to die alone at the tender old age of 22 until I saw Max. He was wearing a freaking skull on his head. It was terror at first sight. But like bacteria on wet socks, Max will grow on you. And this obsessive alpha might just give me the best happy ending you can get in this nightmarish hellscape.

It's my second day here and I haven't written one word. Can you still get writer's block if you're not a real writer? It's all a disaster until I'm wandering through the woods and see some much-needed inspiration. It comes in a big, bearded, growly package. His name is Jayden Rowe and he's a rugged mountain man who says he owns everything on this mountain. Including me. Suddenly, with Jayden's shirtless body to gawk at while he chops wood, the words start flowing and my book comes alive.

There's no one more off-limits to me and the Heartlands crew than the Sheriff's daughter. But once I see her, I know there's nothing I won't do to make her mine. And I know there's nothing the Sheriff won't do to stop me. Everyone has always seen me as an outlaw. A criminal. A thief. But she doesn't. She sees the big heart under my tough exterior. She sees the man I could be. I want to be that man for her, but it's hard when the beasts of my past come knocking, blood debts need to be paid, and her father wants my head on a pike. Hopefully, love is stronger than bullets.
