Men (Nicoll)

Whoever said money can't buy happiness has never sold their worn stockings. Selling every pair to an anonymous buyer whilst working as a long-haul flight attendant means my lifelong dream is in reach. A home to call my own. It's so close I can almost feel that front door key in my hand. Until a giant ego in an overpriced suit steals that dream. He's smug, cocky, infuriating…everything I hate. I do what I must: I declare war. But no one ever truly wins on the battlefield. There will be casualties. He believes he has me. I think I know him. We are both wrong. It soon becomes clear that discovering who we are to each other isn't as straightforward as X marks the spot. This is a standalone steamy romance, which is part of an interconnecting series (The Men Series). It is intended for mature listeners.

Jaxon King is a work of art-beautiful, unique…priceless. I meet him when he admires my artwork at a hotel opening. He's older, he's sophisticated, he's a gentleman. At least he is with his clothes on. Out of them…well, that's a masterpiece in itself. But even a connection as strong as ours means nothing once the champagne wears off. A promise to call me. Then…nothing. When he turns up as my new boss on the biggest project of my career, I try my hardest to turn the page and leave him in the past. Only, he isn't a memory I can simply erase, no matter how hard I try. We have this pull to one another; two colours that merge and create something heavenly. But he screws up the paper and leaves me crumpled…torn. Maybe it's all an illusion and I should erase him from my heart once and for all? If only we could draw our own path through life and start over. It's never as simple as erasing the past, not when you're drawn to Mr. King. Drawn to Mr. King is the third book in The Men series, a steamy, contemporary romance intended for mature listeners. It features themes of cancer, pregnancy and grief.

"You are mine, Sweetheart. You were always going to be mine." They say, don't mix business with pleasure. I bet they never had to work with Griffin Parker. He headhunts me to manage the spa in his iconic New York hotel, the Songbird. It's a dream opportunity, but he's a nightmare in a designer suit. We clash spectacularly when he refuses to give up control. He doesn't trust me. I don't like him. Until one day, we manage to work together, and an idea grows wings. And the things he says… Oh God. I've spent my life fighting back against the repercussions of pleasing other people. Yet, I find myself doing exactly that. Because when Mr. Parker is pleased with you, the rest of the world drifts away. He tells me I belong to him. But he doesn't tell me if I will survive him. No one can tell me that. He didn't get to be one of the most powerful businessmen in New York easily. He has enemies. I'm flying straight into a storm-and I don't even want to stop myself. Pleasing Mr. Parker features a billionaire alpha bosshole, beautiful New York City, glamor, money, diamonds, a filthy-talking hero, praise, secrets and lies, tropical getaways, friendships, groveling, pigeons, and a happily ever after because love always wins.

"You need to understand something, Angel. Once you let me touch you, there's no going back." Reed Walker, notorious playboy, is running for New York mayor. He wants to deflect attention away from his less-than-wholesome image. The past has no place when you're trying to win the people's vote. So he propositions me: Pretend to be his girlfriend until election day. Help him to look dependable, trustworthy, and loving-someone people can relate to. It should be easy. I've spent years playing a role. What's one more? But slowly, I begin to glimpse the man beneath the suit and perfect smile. And what I discover takes my breath away. There is more to Reed Walker than I ever dreamed. Good and bad. Light and dark. Everything I know is reversed. Suddenly, I'm forced into making the hardest decision of my life. And his. I thought I knew what I wanted. But I never factored in getting trapped with Mr. Walker. Expect suits, spice, scandal, singing, pink fluff, houseplants, sloths, letting go of the past, healing, forgiveness, trusting your instincts, redemption, a love so deep it makes your eyes water, and, of course, a happy ever after because love always wins.
