CRUZ 

She was forbidden fruit. 

The sister of a man I respected. 

I shouldn’t touch her. But I have to. 

She’s addictive. 

Even better, she bites. 

But she’s been through so much, suffered the worst kind of abuse, and even as I want to shield her from the world, I can’t. 

I’m a Sinner. 

I bring danger with me wherever I go. 

Once it taints her, there’s no going back… 

INDY 

He was forbidden fruit. 

A brother in the MC that I thought I’d escaped a long time ago. 

I shouldn’t want him. But I need him. 

He’s addictive. 

Even better, he makes me burn. 

But he’s been through so much, endured the worst kind of betrayal, and even though he’s an enigma to me, I crave him. 

He makes me want to sin. 

He’s dangerous. 

But I’m already tainted. I’ve shed blood, and now there’s no going back… 

For the first time in my life, I’m ready to face what happened to me to make a brighter future for myself, but can I do that with a man who’s running from his past?

EXCERPT

I’d known she was unusual, right from the start. Things with Indy had always been aggressive. At first, it had been a turn on. The Dom in me liked that she was quick to act, willing to be violent. At first. Then, quickly, I’d realized she got nothing out of it. 

Nothing. 

She made all the right noises, then she’d turn off the second I touched her. I knew a woman’s body, knew hers even more. Disarming her was the only way forward I’d soon learned, then, she’d had that nightmare, and suddenly everything made sense, and I knew what she needed. Not because I was some kind of fucking guru, but because I knew Indy. She was aggressive by nature. Could butt heads with her biker brothers. Was independent enough to have made a name for herself in a male-dominated industry, and was ferocious enough to fight the way she did pre-fuck. 

I warmed her up with violence. Messed with her nerves, made them clamor in silent alarm so that she could deal with skin-to-skin contact. 

I teased her with control. Made her bow to me, relinquishing all thoughts, all worries, all stresses and strains. 

I dominated her with strength. Taking her weakness, owning it, protecting it. Giving her rules and parameters, letting her take ownership of the one thing she did control—her body. 

Finally, I fucked her with fire. Taking what I needed, knowing full well that, once primed, she was more than along for the ride…

Holiday Home Run by Priscilla Oliveras

 

Romance, Holiday Romance 

Date Published: October 27, 2020 

Publisher: Kensington, Zebra Books 

 

 

Event planner Julia Fernández is in Chicago for an internship that she hopes to turn into a full-time job. She’s ready to live on her own, out from under her familia’s expectations that she take over their catering business in Puerto Rico and away from their year-round baseball fever thanks to her three ball-playing brothers. Ex-MLB pitcher Ben Thomas knows what it’s like to have different dreams than your family intends for you, but since his injury-caused early retirement, he’s been struggling to find the sense of family baseball once brought him. When he volunteers as the emcee for Julia’s big holiday fundraiser for a local youth center, he finally begins to find a sense of purpose working with the kids and alongside Julia.  

She’s focused on organizing the best holiday event the youth center has ever seen, not on romance. But Ben…he’s got a game plan for them that includes both. 

 

Holiday Home Run was previously released as part of the holiday anthology A SEASON TO CELEBRATE.

A Date for the Masquerade by Heidi McLaughlin & LP Dover

Title: A Date for the Masquerade

Series: The Dating Series

Authors: Heidi McLaughlin & LP Dover 

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Release Date: October 27, 2020

New York Times and USA Today bestselling authors Heidi McLaughlin and L.P. Dover come together for a sexy new series that delivers romance for every season! 

When everyone is hidden behind a mask, anything can happen. 

Party planner Ensley Anderson is making a name for herself as Charlotte’s number one event coordinator, her specialty being masquerade balls. Now she’s been given the honor of orchestrating the annual KISS 95.1 Halloween party. 

Little does she know, Owen Jameson is behind her hiring. At the last ball she hosted he met a ravishing beauty and spent a glorious night tangled in silky sheets with her. While her mask stayed on, nothing else did. Now, he’s determined to find his mysterious lover. 

Ensley thought she could put the one night she got swept up in the spellbinding intrigue of her own event behind her.... until he walked in. She would know those eyes anywhere. Both want more than cloaked love, but how do they bring reality into their alluringly enigmatic fantasy? 

Hide who you are, and discover what you want. 

Once I’m done with my wine, I walk around the outskirts of the room. In a way, I’m envious of how much fun everyone is having. Most of the guests look to be in their early to mid-twenties, still young and full of life. All of my friends are married and having kids right now. On the weekends, if Jordan and I aren’t hosting a party, I find myself just sitting in my living room with a movie and a tub of raw chocolate chip cookie dough.

There’s a dark corner just behind the DJ station so I go over there to stand. The Batdance song by Prince comes on and it’s strange because everyone starts to move away from the center of the dancefloor. That’s when Batman comes into view. I’ve seen the line dance on video, but never before in person. Whoever the guy is on the dancefloor is a hoot. Everyone watches him with utter fascination.

“You either have to have a lot of guts or just be outright insane to do what he’s doing.”

My breath catches in my lungs. That voice. I know I’ve heard it before. Slowly, I turn my head and there he is, wearing the same mask he wore a month ago and staring at me with those gray eyes of his. His gaze roams up and down my body. “Guess I chose right being Gatsby. I see I’ve found my Daisy.”

He’s a very sexy Gatsby, indeed. His suit fits him perfectly. His slicked back hair in a high comb over was a popular hair style for men in the twenties. “I wondered if I’d ever see you again,” I say. His smile makes everything inside of me tighten. The need to have him is real and intoxicating. Maybe it’s because it’s been a month since I’ve had any kind of release.

“Same,” he replies, edging closer to me. “I have to admit, I haven’t been able to stop thinking about you.” His eyes fall to my left hand. “I don’t see a ring. Hopefully, that means you’re still single.” 

“I am,” I breathe. “And with you being here, I’m assuming you are too?”

He backs me up to the wall, his body so close to mine. “I am.”

“So, what are we going to do?” I ask, whispering the words across his lips.

His lips pull back and all I want to do is kiss him. “Well,” he begins, “we can stay down here and talk and dance for a while. Or…we can go upstairs to my hotel room and talk there. It’s your choice.”

Talk? There won’t be much of that going on if we go to his room.

Heidi McLaughlin is a New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today Bestselling author of The Beaumont Series, The Boys of Summer, and The Archers.

Originally, from the Pacific Northwest, she now lives in picturesque Vermont, with her husband, two daughters, and their three dogs.

In 2012, Heidi turned her passion for reading into a full-fledged literary career, writing over twenty novels, including the acclaimed Forever My Girl.

When writing isn’t occupying her time, you can find her sitting courtside at either of her daughters’ basketball games.

Heidi’s first novel, Forever My Girl, has been adapted into a motion picture with LD Entertainment and Roadside Attractions, starring Alex Roe and Jessica Rothe, and opened in theaters on January 19, 2018.

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author L. P. Dover is a southern belle living in North Carolina with her husband and two beautiful girls. Everything’s sweeter in the South has always been her mantra and she lives by it, whether it’s with her writing or in her everyday life. Maybe that’s why she’s seriously addicted to chocolate.

Dover has written countless novels in several different genres, including a children’s book with her daughter. Her favorite to write is romantic suspense, but she’s also found a passion in romantic comedy. She loves to make people laugh which is why you’ll never see her without a smile on her face.
