The Bid on Love Bachelor Auction gives bidders the chance to spend the weekend with some of the hottest, single guys around. Which lucky women will win the date of their dreams? Or will some of these dates become a nightmare? Vanessa Adams is trying to save a piece of history, a farm she’s convinced was once part of the Underground Railroad, but lack of proof and property developer Dylan McBride stand in her way. After he dodges her attempts to meet with him, she’s forced to take things a step further. A date with him is being auctioned off at a charity event, and she refuses to let the opportunity slip through her fingers. Dylan doesn’t want to be sold like a slab of meat. He especially doesn’t want to be stuck on a date with a woman who was desperate enough to “buy” him. When his plan to get out of it goes awry, he doesn’t think things could get any worse. He was wrong. Thousands of feet up in the air . . . might not be the best place to be when sparks fly.

A Chance At L.O.V.E.

2018

What happens when two different worlds collide? I wasn't looking for love when I met her. I thought she'd own me for a night. Little did I know she'd end up owning my heart for a lifetime. Lincoln Oliver Vincent Eastwick (AKA L.O.V.E.) has no intentions of ever being in a committed relationship, but that doesn't mean he won't provide one spectacular date to the lucky winner of a masked bachelor auction for a good cause. Dr. Lillian Olivia Vicci (AKA L.O.V.) has two things in common with Lincoln: Their initials and no intentions of settling down. But when her best friend wins the date of a lifetime at an anonymous bachelor auction using Lillian's paddle, all bets are off. It only took one night to bond two hearts together, and one family to rip them apart.
