Lunchtime Chronicles: The Nooner by Reana Malori
Forbidden desire can be sexy.
Joy was not frigid. Her ex-boyfriend made that claim just before he walked out the door —after she discovered he was cheating. But something about his words lingered long after their disastrous relationship ended. Focused and career-driven, she had no time for men who couldn’t handle her in the bedroom or outside of it. Loneliness was not a good bedfellow, and she was tired of not having someone by her side at night. It was fun exploring her newly awakened desires alone. Luckily for her, she heard about this new dating site…
Kane hadn’t yet found the woman who was his perfect fit. Then again, maybe he had. Everything in Kane’s life seemed to be coming up roses, but something was missing, and the string of women passing through his bedroom wasn’t the solution. When he’d first noticed Joy, his mind blanked, his heartbeat increased, and his mouth went dry. Inappropriate didn’t begin to describe his desire for her. Luckily for him, he had the perfect plan to get her attention.
Lunchtime Chronicles: Red Light Special by Reana Malori
From the moment they met, Bobby Cooke and Mercy Webster have wanted to be more than friends, if you could even call them that.
A weekend mix-up, that seems more like a setup, brings them to a point of no return. Bobby will use every skill at his disposal to stop Mercy from walking away. Mercy will give herself permission to let go, just this one time. Little do they know, the passion building between the two of them refuses to be confined to only a few days.
Bobby and Mercy will test the boundaries between friends with benefits. When need and desire are given free rein, the results are explosive.
Private by Xavier Neal
Mogul or Monster?
Billionaire Weston Wilcox hasn’t been seen by the outside world in almost a decade. No face to face meetings. No interviews. No social media accounts. Despite his ghost demeanor he continues to financially flourish and make his fellow investors richer with every decision. Throughout the years many have sought to discover the man inside the mogul while others have spread legends painting him as a heartless monster consumed by greed. None of it matters to him. Weston’s true identity is secured away in his estate of solitude, which consists of the only people in the entire world he believes he can trust. That is until he’s asked to allow a guest access to the property under extreme circumstances. One he knows he shouldn’t. It doesn’t take long before his world is turned upside down, unexpected threats arise, and Weston’s forced to ask himself what really should be kept private?
Public by Xavier Neal
Philanthropist or Antagonist?
Billionaire, Weston Wilcox, has finally come into the light. Not only is he actively attending more meetings and allowing his face to constantly be photographed beside his bodacious fiancé’s, he’s also opened the door for journalists to take a peek behind the curtain at the man he has become. Despite his seemingly compassionate nature, there are rumors that it is all a facade. Accusations that he is not only using his charitable moments to distract the public from his devilish intentions, but to keep his family secrets buried. Family secrets Weston wasn’t aware he had. However, the public doesn’t want real answers, they want a juicy story. Blogs and media outlets don’t want facts, they want dirty details. Will Weston Wilcox retreat back to the private lifestyle he once loved or will he find a way to adjust to his new life that is now PUBLIC?

Battling day after day, killing night after night has turned him into a cold-hearted shifter. His hope of returning to the mortal realm and reclaiming his title as pack alpha seems impossible. Then one day, an opportunity for him to regain his freedom arises. All he has to do is kidnap a witch and bring her to The Deciders. He thought finding the witch, Sinclair Rose, and turning her over to The Deciders would be a simple task. She proved him wrong. The moment he touched her, he experienced pain unlike anything he’d felt before.
When he finally came to, he realized six things:
1. The captor had become the captive.
2. The cottage he was being held captive in was filled with Christmas decorations.
3. The witch holding him hostage was the most beautiful creature he’d ever seen.
4. When her hands were on him, he was able to speak.
5. Her presence was awakening the dormant dragon inside him.
6. He must protect this woman at all costs.
However, if he chooses protecting Sinclair over completing the task assigned to him by The Deciders, he’s putting both their lives in danger. Obey The Deciders or protect a voluptuous witch who makes his dragon roar? There’s only one answer both he and his inner animal can agree on.
Protect the witch.
And death to any who try to harm her.

I can’t allow her to trade in one evil boss for another.

Jericho by author Donna R. Mercer
This complicated relationship is about to get HOT!
Jericho Ryder was tired of the bookend socialites that partied at his club. A wink. A flash of his wicked smile and panties would drop. He knew he could have any woman without exerting much effort. What he needed was excitement, and a real challenge. He just didn’t expect it to walk through the doors of Club Envy. A goddess among mere women. He had never been with an older woman. But like they say, “Age ain’t nothing but a number”, and she was number one in his sight.
Kellista Anthony was through with men. They were nothing but lying cheaters who used up the best years of a woman’s life and then moved on to a newer, younger model. And what did she have to show for it? Stretch marks and gray hair. All she wanted was a night out with her girls at Club Envy. A little dancing. A lot of alcohol and no men! The last thing she needed was a man trying to sweep her off her feet, especially not a younger man. She was not a cradle-robber. She was through changing diapers.
Jericho:
How could I resist her? She was everything a guy like me wanted in a woman. Beautiful, Sexy, Intelligent and she had a mean right hook. She was definitely a MILF! I have no problem dating an older woman. She might not be a cougar on the prowl, but I bet I could make her purr.
Kellista:
I don’t know what overcame me? One look from his sexy eyes and my body was on fire. I couldn’t resist his desire to extinguish it. I couldn’t even blame it on the alcohol. All I could do was scream Jericho.
