All I Want For Christmas

An isolated cabin in the middle of nowhere, with no power, no wifi, and no neighbors within screaming distance? Phoebe King's dream come true. And you can pry it from her cold dead fingers before she'd even dream of leaving.Even when a handsome stranger from the fire department shows up, warning of an impending wildfire. Because leaving? That means confronting all the demons from her past.A shame for Phoebe, then, that Mr Mysterious & Handsome would rather do anything than let her fingers become cold and dead… including kidnapping. Of course, if he's going to kidnap her, that makes her - and her past - one-hundred percent his problem. Right? A grumpy/sunshine holiday romance for readers longing for the safety to simply be themselves.

Lainey Jane - but please, call her LJ - needs out: out of her dead-end job, her soul-sucking family, and the Louisiana bayous in general. So when a chance comes up to join a cruise-ship liner as a permanent staff member playing a mermaid for excited children, LJ jumps at it. The fact that it comes with a move to Sydney, Australia? Absolute bonus. But when her bunkmate bestie books her for a mermaid job on land, the life she thought she left behind shows up to haunt her, first in the form of wickedly hot and very off-limits Marcus "Mako" Dupre - and then other, more sinister forms. LJ thought the mermaid-on-land job was just a favour for a friend that came with a good paycheck. It turns out, favours have strings attached, and these ones might be strong enough to tangle LJ back in a past she'd do anything to forget, and whose resurrection could land her in prison... If only someone was around to help. Don't miss this instalment in the All I Want For Christmas series of standalone paranormal romances, full of the wit, humour and determination to overcome the odds you've come to love and expect! Liana Brooks once read the book GOOD OMENS by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett and noted that both their biographies invited readers to send money (or banana daiquiris). That seems to have worked well for them. Liana prefers strawberry daiquiris (virgin!) and will never say no to large amounts of cash in unmarked bills. Her books are sweet and humorous with just enough edge to keep you reading past your bedtime. Liana was born in San Diego and in addition to there has lived in Illinois, Colorado, Florida, Texas, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, and Kansas. We'd like to tell you where she is right now, but last we checked she was researching books on both Alaska and Africa. Not only are the bookstore algorithms breaking trying to track this lady, but we can't tell you where to mail that daiquiri. Your best bet is to try Twitter where you can often find @LianaBrooks talking about her four kids, her giant dog, and plans for world domination.

Meet Meredith Kriesmas, forensic accountant who sharpens numbers the way killers sharpen knives-Chicago's very own Grim Reaper of the business world. Whole divisions close in her wake, and her clients pay handsomely for it. But ten minutes into a three-day weekend, Merri craves a new job to sink her teeth into. A call from an old friend saves Merri's sanity. Can she visit the winter wonderland at Cozy TV studios-known for its heart-warming holiday movies-and take a look at the books? Horror movie mill Slasher Corp just bought the studio-and Cozy might not make it to the final credits. Merri must dodge the mistletoe, dismember the finances, and disappear before dawn-all while avoiding the Cozy Curse, where no one gets off set single. No problem there. For Merri, business always comes first. At least, until she meets hot horror hipster CEO Seth Morana, and uncovers the secret he hides... A sensual stand-alone paranormal romance for everyone who believes people should be loved exactly as they are.
