Veteran K9 Team Series

What happens when the guy who has been fostering my husky while I'm deployed turns out to be the one-night-stand I ghosted before leaving town? Prior to shipping out for a military assignment, I had the best sex of my life with a guy whose name I never got.  Now I'm home from my six-month deployment and waking up to an angry phone call from a man claiming to have my escape artist of a dog.  Coincidently, he's the guy who took care of her while I was gone.  Imagine my surprise when I walk a couple of blocks and come face to face with the man who rocked my world and starred in my fantasies for the last one hundred and eighty days of my monotonous life.  When I'm in his arms, I feel cherished.  Something about John Vale feels like home.  I knew it the night we met and kicked myself for not exchanging information.  Now, I have a second chance, but after another amazing night together, he ghosts me—much like I did to him six months ago—and I'm left heartbroken. I fell faster than I should—I know this—but something tells me he's the one.  Can I blame him for putting on the brakes when every time we're near each other we burn hot and move fast? And if not, how much time do I give him to realize we're perfect for each other?  !! Formerly titled Dog Tags !!

What happens when the Arizona girl takes ski lessons from the super hot veteran almost twice her age?   Born and raised in Arizona, I've never played in the snow before, much less strapped two death sticks to my feet and thrown myself down a mountain side—but now that I've accepted a position in Spring City, Colorado, I feel like it's time to learn. The overcast skies are less than inviting, and I'm about to skip my lesson when a sexy silver fox introduces himself as my instructor. Suddenly I'm excited to spend an hour on my ass in the snow—which is exactly how my lesson goes until the winds pick up and the search & rescue team clears the mountain. Now I'm tucked safely indoors sipping hot cocoa with my sexy instructor and his sweet Shepherd while his buddy travels up the mountain to search for my mom. When I know she is safe—albeit trapped in a mountain chalet until the storm blows over—I have no reason not to give into the insane attraction pulling me into the arms of Barron Theroux. Is this a vacation thing or will this continue once the blizzard passes over and we return to our lives in Spring City? Barron says I'm his to care for. His to possess. After one night in his arms, I might believe him. !! Formerly titled Bunny Hill Betty !!

What happens when the confirmed bachelor and K9 veteran falls for the one woman who has no intentions of ever settling down?   Sure, he has biceps the size of my thick thighs and a rugged lumberjack exterior that satisfies all of my fantasies about climbing a man like a tree, but I'm not looking for a relationship—especially with a confirmed bachelor.   Besides, I'm also happily single and don't plan to change that. Ever.   Maybe it's my hyper independence that keeps me firmly in bachelorette territory…   Or maybe it's that every relationship in my family has devolved into a bitter, messy divorce and turned those of us within blast radius into jaded bystanders.   Still, Michael Kemp is fun to play with.   I crave him like a puppy craves a treat.   We can mess around and enjoy each other until something else comes along, right?   Even if I do catch feelings, he never has to know.   So why do I feel like he's the one who not only caught feelings, but is ready to walk down the aisle? Is it the lusty haze and afterglow of our red hot attraction making him believe he feels things for me that he can't possibly feel?   Is that also what makes me feel like I can't breathe when we're apart?   I have to call off whatever this is before one of us gets hurt, only he's not making it easy.   He says we fit together inexplicably.   He says he craves my touch, my time, my insatiable spirit.   He says I'm his.   But can I accept that he is mine?

What happens when the search & rescue veteran and his K9 get trapped in a remote mountain chalet with a gorgeous older woman during a freak winter storm?   My first time on a ski slope in twenty years, I overestimated my abilities and got lost in a blizzard that hit the mountaintop faster than anyone expected. Trapped in the trees with a twisted knee and zero visibility, I'm quickly losing consciousness when an insistent wet nose and a pair of strong arms save me. Now I'm in a mountain cabin in front of a roaring fire and a muscle bound shirtless man who insists on getting me naked.  Too bad it's merely to save me from hypothermia and nothing else. Or is it? Linc Abrams is the sexiest man to ever put his hands on me. Even though he's barely a few years older than my daughter, our age difference doesn't deter him in seducing me at all.  Charmingly sweet, supremely confident, and intent on adoring every inch of me, he is out of a romance novel (or maybe a porn), but either way, I grab hold of this opportunity with both hands and let him show me pleasure I didn't know my body was capable of. Literally. When the question of his manwhoring past is brought to the forefront, I have to remind myself that this is nothing more than one amazing night born of proximity, anxiety, and convenience.  I can't expect a relationship with a man fifteen years my junior who lives in another state, and any fanciful dreams I had last night in the throes of orgasmic ecstasy must be forgotten. Linc doesn't agree and refuses to let me ghost him, promising if I do, he'll find and give me the spankings I desperately need. He says I'm his to adore, and he's never letting me go. After one night off the mountain in Spring City, I might believe him. !! Formerly titled Snowed in with Search & Rescue !!

What happens when the veteran—who is secretly from a famous and affluent Hollywood family—covets a dog treat baker whose ex-fiance uses money to control her? ​ For the last six years, I've kept the truth about my family away from the men and women I met while serving in the US Army. What they don't know is I'm the youngest son (and black sheep) of an old money, high powered, Hollywood family. I never wanted the life they crave, and it was either the Army, jail, or a pine box, if I had continued down the reckless path I was on as a teenager. Now I'm separating from the military and looking at the next phase of my life, which I hope includes investing in the Veteran K9 Center in Spring City, Colorado. The men working at this facility have been my family since graduating high school, and their influences are what I think I need in my future. And then I meet Tess---a beautiful bartender with a dream of starting a doggie bakery. That's a dream I can help make a reality with my inheritance, and I don't even have to tell anyone where it came from. All I have to do is go home and meet with the lawyer to release my trust fund so I can invest in what I hope will be my future. Our future. Only my mother has no intention of not getting her way, which leaves me with a choice to make... Do I go back to Hollywood to earn my money the family way? Or start my life penniless in Colorado? Once Tess learns the truth about me, will she stand by me either way?
