Aurora might run a successful business with her brother that offers companions for hire, but she's never used the service herself—until she needs an easy date for an important banquet in New York. She fortunately knows just the man for the job. Mike O'Dell. He's cute and smart and funny and good-hearted, and she's been into him for all the years he's worked for her company. Now's the time to make her move. What could go wrong with hiring him as her date for the weekend? An early version of Date for Hire was published in the AUSTRALIA charity anthology. It has since been expanded by 45%.

My three priorities for this year are to finish my PhD, avoid emotional drama, and earn some extra money, so when Steve hires me to act like his girlfriend for an extended business trip, I don't hesitate to sign the contract. After all, the job will be easy. I can join him for the occasional dinner, pretend to adore him, and still have plenty of time to focus on my academic work. I'm used to working with rich, entitled men, so I'm not worried about handling him. Except Steve is nothing I expect. He's brilliant and funny and has emotional depths that keep surprising me. And he's hot. Definitely hot. I'm starting to want more from him than this job allows, so avoiding emotional drama might not be in the cards for me this year. I work for Companions for Hire, which means sex is against the rules and falling in love is out of the question. The Girlfriend is the first book in the Companions for Hire series about a company that provides a variety of social partners for a price.

In need of extra money after a divorce, I take a job with Companions for Hire. I'm not any good at it. I'm too quiet. Too shy. Too uncomfortable with social situations. So when I'm assigned as a kind of chaperone for the teenage daughter of a single father on a month-long trip to Europe, I jump at the chance. It sounds simple and pays really well. I assume the girl will be spoiled and her father will be a workaholic, but neither of them are what I expect. Candice is bookish and withdrawn, and it's a challenge to draw her out of her shell. But that's nothing compared to what Hugh does to me. He's smart and funny and dangerously attractive, and he keeps trying to get to know me. I shouldn't want to get close to him. After my failed marriage, I'm not inclined to trust easily. Plus, getting close to him would be breaking the rules of my job. I work for Companions for Hire, which means sex is against the rules and falling in love is out of the question. The Chaperone is the second book in the Companions for Hire series about a company that provides a variety of social partners for a price.
