365 Days by Ajme Williams

365 Days by Ajme Williams

I’d made it impossible for anyone to shatter my heart after the day I caught my ex-fiancé in bed with my best friend…

But then I meet James Dunsmore… the man who knows how to make the impossible possible.

He hires me after my ex’s big betrayal and my family’s abandonment.

In some strange way, that grumpy man in a perfect suit begins to feel like the only family I have.
One that is extremely dysfunctional, of course.

But the real dysfunction hasn’t even been revealed to me yet.
My gorgeous boss has the brilliant idea to offer me a promotion.
Great, I think – no more of that “assistant, grab me my shoes” BS.

He wants to change my job title from “assistant” to “fake wife.”
I am way too quick to nod and accept.
I am also too quick to break the rules of that agreement and jump into his bed.

And then, my crazy past knocks at the door while I stare at the two pink lines that can ruin my future forever.
FML, there are two buns in the oven.

A happily-ever-after is impossible, but like I said…
James Dunsmore is the only man that knows how to make the impossible possible – for me and for our unborn twins.

Loving Goldie by Debra Elise

About Loving Goldie by Debra Elise:

GOLDIE

So, I’ve got problems, but who doesn’t, right?

There might not be 99 of them, but enough to keep me in semi-permanent fight-or-flight mode by: Searching for a loser ex who doesn’t want to be found; watching my only child fight, then thankfully beat cancer; and suffering in silence for years with endometriosis.

That last one has kept me from living life to the fullest and giving my daughter what she’s always wanted: a family.

Then, at the exact right time, things may finally go my way. After leaving almost every job I’ve ever had out of boredom, I’ve landed a new position that could finally be the one.

But there’s a problem (yeah, I know, because of course there is, right?)

It’s a six-three, nerdishly sexy problem who thinks I’m the one. But I’m not looking for love, just a job that finally challenges me and has a great health plan.

FORD

Work is crazy.

My family is crazier.

And my personal life? I’m not going to lie, it’s been pretty dull and a bit lonely, okay, a lot lonely.

I tell my friends I don’t have time for love. But what I haven’t told anyone, especially my mom or my nosy cousins, is that I’m a romantic at heart. I know the one is out there.

And at 42, I may have just hired the woman of my dreams.
Convincing her proves challenging.

She says she’s broken and not interested in love, but all I see are her perfect imperfections.

So, don’t worry, I enjoy a good challenge.

There are numerous ways to differentiate one person from the next. Hair or eyes color, personality, sense of humor, and so forth. For some, it’s a medical diagnosis.
While that can be life-altering, it also doesn’t define you. However, it can shake you, change you, shape you. But our core remains-the need for acceptance, love.
We’re here to give those that are perfectly imperfect their beautiful, heartwarming happily ever afters.

Tattooed Sweetness by Katlyn S. Coen

Tattooed Sweetness by Katlyn S. Coen

People say: opposites attract. But are diametrically charged poles strong enough to overcome the scars of the past?

While hastily looking for her tardy client, young conservative business consultant Celine slams into an outrageously adorable hunk, spilling his coffee all over him.

As she lends him a replacement for his soaked turtleneck, the heavily inked man, who hardly fits into the image of a small Southern German town, turns out to be her appointment: tattoo artist Philipp.

Philipp: „I know very well how people like you tend to look down on me. Do you think I’m f*cking stupid? Shortly shaven hair, almost fully tattooed, always a curse on my lips. You look at me and you see an outlaw. Why else would someone ink every square inch of his skin?
You could’nt be more wrong about me. But, what if jail was actually the better option? You say nothing about that. Being occupied with running my business and practicing my art, I am turning my dream into a reality. And just as I am doing this, a sweetness who is looking as innocent as she is pure-skinned crosses my way.“

Celine: Graduated from College–check. Started my first job–check. Now all I need to do is to get to terms with my first client. Then, I can tackle what I want most: my own family. A husband, a house of our own, and children–just to close the black hole of my past. But suddenly, my client turns out to be not only excessively tattoed and overly self-confident, but also oozes confusing charisma: exotic, masculine, and dangerous. I should keep him at a distance and my well-ordered strategy in focus, right? Oh my God. I don’t think I will be able to do so, because I just can’t get this man out of my head.“

Note to the readers: all of the characters are flawed and struggle with their own issues and insecurities. Tattooed Sweetness is about love, loss, and experiencing life in all its facets. It deals with sensitive topics that may be triggering for some readers.
