All it took was four little words . . . "Um, hi. Achilles right?" The moment I turned at the sound of her voice, my world shifted. Nervous, sweet, and completely off-limits, Harley Jacobs, was standing there, eyeing me with purpose. Once the fiery beauty claimed me, I didn't stand a chance. She became my siren, a constant that kept away my darkness. Gave me a shot at a beauty I'd never thought possible. The day I left her behind, my purpose was clear. Become the man worthy of her. Now, I'm back. The rebellious teenage bad-boy is long gone. I've fought wars, saved lives, lost friends, and mourned the deaths of brothers. During this time, one thing never changed. My obsession with Harley. Nothing prepared me for what happens when the insanely breathtaking bombshell rocks my world again. The sweet, shy girl I left years ago is now all woman, testing my iron-clad restraint every chance she can. Harley is impossible to resist, obliterating my plans and self-control with a single glance. I walked away once, taking the biggest risk of my life. My name is Achilles Kingston. And it's finally my time. Contains mature themes.

She was meant to be mine. Julianna Keller is sexy, wild, and carefree with a spark for life that sets my soul on fire. We're opposites in every way. For one night, I allowed myself to imagine what being with a woman like her could be like. But life goes on. I returned to my life in the Marines-fighting wars, eliminating threats, and completing missions only a few knew about. All the time, never forgetting her. Three years later, we're back in the same city, thrown together at every turn. She's so much more than I remember-brilliant, sophisticated, and still unbelievably gorgeous. I fight to stay away, hiding my feelings and knowing she deserves so much more. Then I see her with another man and my world explodes. Years of training taught me to never let my guard down, but I'm done holding back. She says it's too late, our time has passed. I'm prepared to prove her wrong. She's the chaos to my control. The calm to my storm. The light to my dark. The harder she fights to push me away, the more determined I become. Julianna Keller has no idea how far I'll go. My name is Major Powers. And I've never failed a mission. Contains mature themes.

WHEN DANGER ARRIVES, REAL MEN TAKE ACTION Dakota (Dak) Navarro, wealthy entrepreneur, international playboy and jet-setter, arrives in Miami for the wedding of his friend, Andrew Logan. He is hoping to see Dr. Amelia Courson, the woman he met two years earlier at another wedding—that of his good friend and her brother, Stonewall Courson. Dr. Amelia Courson is a doctor who feels that lately she is taking care of everyone but herself. She is long overdue for a vacation and wants to let go and get wild. She has heard about Dak's "love-them-and-leave-them", "no-strings-attached" attitude, and since she is not looking for love either, Amelia feels Dak is just what this doctor orders. Dak is a man of action and is ready to whisk Amelia away on his private jet to an exotic location...for R, R and R—rest, relaxation and rolling between the sheets. What Dak does not count on is keeping them both alive when danger comes knocking at their door.

One look, one touch, one kiss . . . everything changes. I'm done waiting. Now it's all on the line. I'm prepared to do whatever it takes to give her the life she deserves. My name is Ford Whitman.
