It'll take a miracle for the two of them to last more than eight nights... Larissa: Hanukkah's never been my favorite holiday. In fact, I usually forget it's happening. This year though, despite nearly being killed by my tall drink of water new neighbor, I'm in the mood to celebrate. Only I can't seem to find my menorah... Yo: Hanukkah's one of my favorite holidays. I look forward to celebrating every December. This year could be more interesting than ever when a gorgeous, curvy (and grumpy) woman moves in next door. Only I seem to have misplaced my candles... Together these two opposites will light up the night. If you love Hallmark movies, but sometimes with the language was a tad saltier and the loves scenes, well, existed, then this funny, sweet, and sexy Hanukkah novella is for you.

I’ve spent the better part of the last few years successfully avoiding my brother’s best friend, Weston Aldrich. As CEO of Andes Inc, the infuriatingly handsome and incessantly grumpy Weston also happens to be my new boss. It shouldn’t have been hard to continue avoiding him. After all, he’s on the executive floor and I’m one of many copywriters. Weston has his own ideas about how things should go between us. He’s in my emails, leaving notes on my desk, and as if that’s not enough, he arranges for me to accompany him on a business trip. That leads to stolen touches, frenzied kisses, and the undeniable need to work each other out of our systems. That always works, right? Except now that I know what it feels like to have Weston Aldrich appreciate every inch of my abundant curves, avoiding him is impossible. But he’s my brother’s best friend. And a workaholic. We have to stop. And we will. Soon. Just…not yet.

I have this thing about saying ‘yes’. I do it frequently, and with abandon. Skydiving on a whim? Yes. A last minute getaway to Ireland? Yes! Agreeing to a marriage of convenience with sexy and arrogant Luca Rossi for two years? Um…yes? It should have been a simple arrangement. Luca needs a wife to clean up his image as the new CEO of Rossi Motors, and I need my mother to stop trying to fix me up on terrible dates. In two years, we’ll part amicably, no attachments or hard feelings. Anything that happens between us will be outside the confines of our arrangement. And by anything, I mean falling into Luca’s bed. Which I also do frequently and with abandon. But nothing is ever as simple as it seems. It isn’t long before I fall for my motorcycle-riding, dirty-talking, sexy-as-sin husband. I know I should be careful. This is just temporary, after all, and Luca and I want completely different futures. The thing is, when I’m with Luca, all I want to do is say, ‘yes’, no matter how reckless that would be.

My boss, Elliot Levy is intolerable, and I tell him so everyday…in the little notes I write and then hide in the back of my desk. I can’t exactly say to his face that I’m convinced he’s a cyborg, considering I'm about to become a single mother and I really need to keep my job as his assistant. Elliot never looks at me, so he doesn’t even notice I’m pregnant until I’m seven months along. The first thing he asks is if I’m planning to come back to work once I have the baby. Not unexpected. What is unexpected is Elliot coming to my rescue when I need a place to stay after my daughter is born. While living with him, I get to see a whole other side of him…especially when he walks around his house without a shirt on. Which he does, ALL. THE. TIME. I shouldn’t look, but I can’t help it. He’s gorgeous in a suit, but out of one? Devastating. Elliot shows me he isn’t the heartless robot I once thought. It’s still terrifying to take a chance on him, even when he holds my baby like she’s precious to him, and he touches me like he’s been longing to for ages. Now that he has me, he isn’t letting me go without a fight. And Elliot Levy didn’t get where he is in business without learning a few underhanded tricks. What will he do to keep me? To keep us? P.S. I think I’m falling for you. Tropes: *Grumpy/Sunshine *Curvy FMC *Close Proximity *Single Mother *Boss/Assistant P.S. You're Intolerable can be read as a complete standalone!

“You’re perfect for this job, Claire. He won’t want to sleep with you. You’re not his...type.” Dominic Cantrell has been famous almost as long as I’ve been alive, but he remains a dark, volatile mystery. I know why I was hired to handle Dominic’s PR while he’s on tour. It’s not because of my experience—I have next to none. It’s because I’m safe. Plain, quiet, shy, with more-than-ample curves, I won’t distract him. What I didn’t count on was Dominic distracting me instead. I shouldn’t be so drawn to him. He’s too old for me, too closed-off, and definitely too angry, but I’ve been a good girl for far too long. Why can’t I be just a little bit bad, especially when my rock star fantasy is so willing to corrupt me? Our fling has an expiration date at the end of the tour. No strings, no feelings, no heartbreak when it’s over. I tell myself I won’t fall. But I don’t know if I’m built that way.

Helen. What a sweet name for a girl who is anything but. The first time I laid eyes on Theo Whitlock, I chased him and his frat boy friends with a bat. I’m no white knight. I’m broke. He’s rich. I destroyed his car. He chooses not to rat me out. I was never supposed to go to college, but especially not one like Savage U, where only the wealthiest need apply. One might call this a lucky break, only I don’t feel so lucky with a drug dealer breathing down my neck, and a gangster threatening to burn my house down. You have a face that could launch a thousand ships. Theo and I don’t make sense, but being with him feels good, and I need more than my books and classes to distract me from the chaos and violence in my life. I know you’re my good girl. Aren’t you, Helen? Tell me. We’re casual. No complications. We have to be. I’m keeping secrets, and I have a feeling behind Theo Whitlock’s twinkly blue eyes is a whole world of darkness. Do you think about me? Too much… Did I hurt you? He will...if the other savages don’t get to me first. (Full blurb to come! The release date will be moved forward. Savage U is a spin-off of The Savage Crew, but can be read as a standalone!)
