Plain jane and old-fashioned—that’s me, or at least that's what everyone says. After my ex-boyfriend got my cousin pregnant, I was officially done with being dumped and rejected. But my persistent best friend just had to set me up for a blind date! I nearly laughed in her face. Trying one more time, I walked into the restaurant and saw him: a sexy, rich, drop-dead gorgeous man in suit whose very presence screamed sex. Of course, he wasn’t my blind date. But after that humiliating evening—mistaking him for my blind date and puking on his car—I met him again the next day as my company's new boss! And my ex-boyfriend's best friend. What could possibly go wrong?

SCARLET Once upon a time, I had a crush on the intense, sexy beast Lucas Alejandro. I first saw him at my mom and stepfather’s wedding, but I didn’t think he would ever notice me. Because for Luke, I was off-limits. But after six years, I tried to forget all about him. I’d matched a man named Jax online—charming, hot, and mysterious. And oh boy, he knew how to get me all turned on with his smooth talk in those late-night phone calls. As fate would have it, Jax turned out to be Luke. Now, trapped between the man I once admired from afar and the man he has become, I must navigate the lies and secrets that threaten to tear us apart. LUKE Women are born liars. They will suck the life out of you until you don’t believe in yourself. That is how the universe revolves. So my rules are simple. One night. No real names. No repeats. Every week, it should be a different woman. She should be blonde and sexy and preferably not expect more. Until one liar changes everything…

Professor Julian Sebastian. Brilliant. Billionaire. Off-limits. “I’d like to apologize,” I say, avoiding the professor’s gaze. “For what, Ms. Scott?” he asked, his hand travelling to my lower back as we danced. “It was an accident, but I kissed you,” I murmur, embarrassed. “Correction. I kissed you back, but I won’t apologize…” I’ve worked hard for my grades, staying top of my class for my enigmatic benefactor to continue supporting me. Until Professor Sebastian walked into my life. Our attraction is unavoidable, like a magnetic pull whenever he’s near, and he sees the real me. For the first time, I know what real affection feels like. I should turn away and do the right thing. I have a boyfriend and scholarship to keep. I know desiring my professor could ruin us both. But just one kiss, one touch—it's all it takes to cross the line.

When songwriting major Anya Scott goes to a prestigious college, she believes her unfortunate fate will forever change its course. Her supportive boyfriend lavishes her with attention, and she receives financial assistance from a mysterious benefactor. Despite her traumatic past, she’s doing better than she ever imagined and is on the cusp of achieving her goals. Until she’s not. She encounters a man who is brilliant, rich, and obviously unobtainable. Julian Sebastian—a renowned Hollywood composer and her new professor. Anya soon realizes she has stronger feelings for him and tries to suppress them for all the right reasons. Julian, too, is captivated by Anya's wit, beauty, and resolve. A forbidden, passionate affair awaits them. It’s a wrong and dangerous ride, but it feels so right that she wants to explore her own desires. Just one . Only one touch. They are all it will take to cross the line.

“I need a wife, but you don’t need to marry me just yet. Let’s have a trial,” Rafael said, his ocean-blue eyes gleaming as he scanned her from head to toe, then lingered on her cleavage. Savannah frowned. “A trial? Like a probation period?” “Something like that. Actually, I have a better proposition for you. I want to hire you as my girlfriend.” Her jaw dropped, but he brushed her chin. “Close your mouth, Savannah. It’s distracting.” “So, you want a fake relationship with me until you inherit your father’s legacy?” “No, I want to hire you until you are ready to marry me legally. I need heirs. I don’t want our kids to be illegitimately born.” Every hair on her body stood. Her ex-husband, Edward, didn’t want kids, but this man only wanted marriage to have children. Caught between her past and a tempting future, Savannah had to decide if she would take a chance on New York’s sexiest, most eligible bachelor, Rafael Sebastian, to escape the heartbreak caused by a cheating husband stolen by her best friend.
