Break Even by Lisa De Jong


Steam: Steam Level 4

My story isn’t a love story … not the typical kind anyway.
As a lawyer, I’m used to discovery, but I never saw this one coming.

Every day, River gives me ten reasons to stay away, and then eleven reasons why I can’t. Our relationship was to remain strictly business, or at least I tried.

Four years of marriage, and everything with Cole has changed. I never knew two people who lived together could be so distant. But I’m not ready to give up on him.

One man wants to break me.
The other is just trying to get even.

Both are lying to me.

**This is a standalone!**

Her Doctor in Charge by Maggie Carpenter


Steam: Steam Level 5

It doesn’t take long for Dr. Daniel Dupont to come up with a diagnosis and treatment plan for his new patient, the beautiful Lady Sybil Sinclair. The free-spirited daughter of the aristocracy has been drinking and partying too much while eating and sleeping too little, and in his best medical judgment what she needs is a good, hard, bare-bottom spanking.

Not only is Daniel is a man who enjoys a challenge, he also finds the petulant young miss quite appealing, so he casts professional decorum aside and makes it clear to Sybil that if she wants him as her doctor, she will be expected to submit to the spanking she deserves. Sybil nervously agrees, and Daniel soon realizes that the appropriate course of treatment for her will require much more than just a properly reddened backside. What his headstrong patient needs is a man bold enough to take her in hand and dominate her completely.

Soon enough Sybil finds herself shamefully on display on the handsome doctor’s examination table, her well-spanked bare bottom fully exposed and her cheeks burning with humiliation as her temperature is taken the old-fashioned way. Daniel’s thorough exploration of her most intimate charms leaves her trembling with desire, and she begins to wonder if he might be the man she’s been hoping for.

As he gets to know her better, Daniel quickly recognizes that there is much more to Sybil than just a silly girl who likes to party, and his passion for her only grows deeper when he learns the truth about her past and the price she has had to pay to follow her dreams. But when it comes to light that the men Sybil works for are far more dangerous than either of them could have imagined, will Daniel be prepared to stay by her side no matter the risk?

Publisher’s Note: Her Doctor in Charge is an erotic romance novel that includes spankings, sexual scenes, extensive medical play, anal play, elements of BDSM, and more. If such material offends you, please don’t buy this book.

Sands of Time (The Heart Falls Heroes Book 2) by K.D. Friedrich


Steam: Steam Level 4

A single mom struggles to protect her son from her abusive past while fighting her attraction for the man she once risked everything to have. The secrets that drove them apart now push them back together in a story that tests the boundaries of trust, forgiveness, strength, and love. K.D. Friedrich takes you back to Heart Falls in her new romance novel Sands of Time, Book 2 of her contemporary series, The Heart Falls Heroes.

Once again, single mom Jade Santiago is trapped under her father’s firm hand. If her existence wasn’t complicated enough, her son’s father, John Sands, has popped back into her life. John doesn’t know JT is his son, and Jade plans to keep it that way. John’s ignorance ensures his protection from her abusive, vindictive father. Especially now that John works for him.

Bad-boy-turned-cop John Sands loves women, but hates relationships. At least, that was, until Jade Santiago came back to town. Now he wants things. Things like family and commitment. Not to mention hot sex. For her, he’s ready to change his priorities. If he can only get past her stubborn indifference and the chief of police, who happens to be her father and his boss, she’ll end up right where she belongs—in his arms and his bed.

Jade thought keeping JT’s dad a secret for all these years seemed like a good idea, but the more John proves himself a genuine friend and an honorable man, the more she struggles with her intense attraction and undeniable guilt. He deserves the truth. A truth that will ultimately destroy all she has worked to protect. A truth that will shatter the trust of the only man she has ever loved. A truth that will change their lives forever.
