Looking For Trouble (#4, Texas Trouble) by Becky McGraw


Steam: Steam Level 4

A western romantic suspense series by New York Times and USA Today bestselling author, Becky McGraw with hot cowboys, a dash of suspense and a lot of southern humor–the perfect recipe for Trouble. All of the books in the Texas Trouble series can be read standalone.

LOOKING FOR TROUBLE

After surviving near bankruptcy at the hands of her manager, country singer Jess Sparks is on the road to recovery. She’s hired to sing at a ranch retirement party on her birthday, and meets a sexy, long-legged rodeo cowboy who whets her whistle and more. On a dare from her best friend, Jess decides to give herself a birthday present. When she finds out afterwards that she’s gotten a bonus and is one of the two-percent club that condom boxes warn about, she is both thrilled and horrified at the same time.

Her career is sidelined for a while to welcome her precious angel into the world, but Jess gets right back on the road. When that road leads to a wedding gig at the same ranch where she’d met the cowboy, she’s a little freaked out, but takes it, because the odds are low she’ll see him again. The man without a name, is a tumbleweed and had only been a guest at the party.

When Jess arrives there to find out he’s not only there–he’s now the ranch manager–she almost turns her van around. But she needs the money for Angel, and he doesn’t know about the baby, so she thinks she’s safe. Her luck is still not running, though. She didn’t count on the cowboy being smarter than the average saddle bum, but he is. Not only does Wade Roberts quickly put two and two together to figure out that Angel is his daughter, instead of running like most men would, he demands a place in his daughter’s life, and by osmosis hers.

Used to making her own decisions for herself and the baby, can Jess allow that to happen? If she doesn’t, will he try to take Angel away? Things get thicker when country music industry vultures get their claws into her and she might lose her daughter anyway. Will Wade help her, because he’s the only one who can? Or will he let them have her, so he has a clear path to custody of Angel with her out of the way?

Sins and Needles (The Artists Trilogy Book 1) by Karina Halle


Steam: Steam Level 4

There’s a Fine Line Between Sin and Salvation . . .

Ellie Watt is a woman on the run. Raised by a pair of thieves who taught her the art of the grift-and pursued by a mobster who fell for her con-she hopes to find refuge at her uncle’s farm in quiet Palm Valley, California. Ellie swears she’s through with her life of crime. But before she knows it, she’s right back in the game when she meets an easy mark who’s too good-and too hot-to be true.

His name is Camden McQueen. A master tattoo artist and a total inked stud, Camden is nothing like the awkward kid who crushed on Ellie back in high school. Now, as owner of the wildly successful Sins & Needles, he’s got tats to kill for, muscles to die for, and money to burn. Ellie can’t believe the transformation-and can’t resist pulling off one last con. But when Camden catches Ellie red-handed, the tables are turned. The mark becomes the master. And when the ultimate player gets played, you never know who’s going to end up on top . . .

Approx. 100,000 words.

A View to a Thrill (Masters and Mercenaries Book 7) by Lexi Blake


Steam: Steam Level 5

A Spy without a Country

Simon Weston grew up royal in a place where aristocracy still mattered. Serving Queen and country meant everything to him, until MI6 marked him as damaged goods and he left his home in disgrace. Ian Taggart showed him a better way to serve his fellow man and introduced him to Sanctum, a place to pursue his passion for Dominance and submission. Topping beautiful subs was a lovely distraction until he met Chelsea, and becoming her Master turned into Simon’s most important mission.

Chelsea Dennis grew up a pawn to the Russian mob. Her father’s violent lessons taught her that monsters lurked inside every man and they should never be trusted.

Everything changed when Simon Weston crossed her path. Valiant and faithful, he was everything she needed—and a risk she couldn’t afford to take.

A Force too Strong to Resist

When dark forces from her past threaten her newfound family at Sanctum, Chelsea must turn to Simon, the one man she can trust with her darkest secrets. Their only chance to survive lies in a mystery even Chelsea has been unable to solve. As they race to uncover the truth and stay one step ahead of the assassins on their heels, they will discover a love too powerful to deny. But to stop a killer, Simon just might have to sacrifice himself…
