Enemies to Lovers

Οι κανόνες ήταν απλοί. Να κρατήσω τα χέρια μου μακριά από την κόρη του και να μη μπλέξω σε μπελάδες. Αλλά τώρα είμαι κολλημένος μαζί της. Υπάρχει μόνο ένα κρεβάτι. Και, λοιπόν, οι κανόνες είναι για να παραβιάζονται. Είμαι το πρόσωπο του επαγγελματικού ροντέο με ταύρους — το χρυσό αγόρι. Ή, τουλάχιστον, ήμουν, μέχρι που όλα έσκασαν στα μούτρα μου. Τώρα ο ατζέντης μου λέει ότι πρέπει να φτιάξω την εικόνα μου, οπότε είμαι κολλημένος με την κόρη του, που δεν σηκώνει πολλά-πολλά, για το υπόλοιπο της σεζόν ως η «επιτήρησή» μου πλήρους απασχόλησης. Αλλά δεν χρειάζομαι καμιά καταραμένη μπέιμπι σίτερ, ειδικά κάποια με εφαρμοστό τζιν, σέξι μειδίαμα και στόμα που δεν σταματά να μιλάει. Ένα στόμα που δεν μπορώ να σταματήσω να σκέφτομαι. Γιατί η Σάμερ δεν είναι απλώς άλλη μία κατάκτηση. Βλέπει τον άντρα πίσω από τη μάσκα και δεν το βάζει στα πόδια — με τραβάει πιο κοντά, ακόμη κι όταν δεν θα έπρεπε. Λέει ότι αυτό δεν σημαίνει τίποτα. Εγώ λέω ότι σημαίνει τα πάντα. Λέει ότι υπάρχουν όρια που δεν πρέπει να ξεπεράσουμε. Ότι η φήμη μου δεν αντέχει άλλα πλήγματα — ούτε η πληγωμένη καρδιά της. Εγώ λέω ότι έτσι κι αλλιώς θα της την κλέψω.

A dislike to lovers stand\-alone from small\-town romance author Brooke Montgomery about a barrel racer who loses her memory and the rowdy cowboy she once hated but no longer remembers... I've hated Landen Hollis for the past eleven years. It's no secret to anyone around us that I don't like him, but no one knows why. I can't tell them or I'd risk my pro barrel racing career that I love. Being at the top of my game and on the way to winning it all, he's the last person I need interfering. It's bad enough that he's one of my trainers and unavoidable, but he relentlessly seeks me out and pushes my buttons. Even when I nearly choke to death, he's there, saving my life. We're the opposite in every way. I thrive on routine and sticking to it. He's a playboy who never has serious relationships or commits to anything besides annoying me. But then everything takes a turn for the worse when I get a concussion and forget who he is. My world flips upside down when I wake up not recognizing the sexiest man I've ever seen—a six\-foot\-something, blue\-eyed cowboy who's looking at me like I'm his dream girl. He tells me we shouldn't get close because it's only a matter of time before I get my memory back. And although I can't remember why I hated him, I want to roll the dice and see where it takes me. When flashes of the past resurface, and I start to remember everything, my life unravels from the secret I've been keeping—and what I never wanted him to know. But a murder scandal always stirs up gossip in a Southern small town. Fall With Me is book 3 in the Sugarland Creek series. Each book in this Southern, small town series is a stand\-alone and ends in a happily ever after.

Wolf Wayburn is the devil in an Armani suit with the body of a Greek god. He thinks I’m just a small-town girl who he can intimidate—but I never back down from a fight. The first time we met, he cut me off at a gas station. So, I flashed him the bird and mocked his family jewels. The second time we met, he tried to get me fired. He took his shot—and he missed. At least for now. Wolf Wayburn was an ex-Navy SEAL with an attitude. But it would take a lot more than the big, bad Wolf to scare me off. I had ninety days to win the man over. To convince him that I was the right person for the job. But spending endless amounts of time with him proved more challenging than I’d expected. He was stubborn and broody and charming and sexy—all at the same time. I despised him as much as I craved him. We taunted and teased and terrorized one another for weeks. The first time he dropped to his knees, it was to search me for a weapon. The second time… it was an altogether different story. I never planned to fall for the enemy. Because I knew it was easier to hate Wolf Wayburn than to love him. \\This is book 5 in the Honey Mountain Series. Each one can be read as a complete standalone. A HEA is guaranteed!\\

There was only one woman who could set me free. But I would rather set myself on fire than ask Sloane Walton for anything. Lucian Rollins is a lean, mean vengeance-seeking mogul. On a quest to erase his father’s mark on the family name, he spends every waking minute pulling strings and building an indestructible empire. The more money and power he amasses, the safer he is from threats. Except when it comes to the feisty small-town librarian that keeps him up at night… Sloane Walton is a spitfire determined to carry on her father’s quest for justice.

There’s no way she’s going to give him a third chance. He’s just going to have to make one for himself.
