I accidentally read through my boss’s private communications. And maybe discovered he thinks humans acquire mates only through million-dollar secret auctions. In fact, he’s going to an auction house tonight to purchase a girlfriend. I am horrified. Mr. Tusk is sixteen years older than me and I’m his personal assistant. We’ve never met in real life, but I’m mesmerized by his picture on my desk—his striking red eyes, wide shoulders and the distinguished grey hair at his temples. Those deadly retractable tusks are an added bonus. Too bad he’d never go for a younger woman like me. But I need to protect my filthy rich boss from these unscrupulous humans tricking him into paying for companionship. That’s why I’m here “undercover” at the auction house tonight, about to strut half-naked, on stage for a crowd of mysterious bidders. But when a ferocious Derwen Tusk roars out his winning bid for me from the back of the darkened audience, I’m suddenly worried this plan might not work out like I thought. *** The series where the Highest Bidder always wins. Welcome to a one-of-a-kind Auction House where humans, shifters, and aliens bid on love. These ultra-rich men are ready to bring home their virgin prizes. Are you ready to join in and wish you were the one on the auction block? Nine standalone stories by best-selling steamy romance authors, Hope Ford, Olivia T. Turner, and Michele Mills. You’ve never seen an auction house like this!

To Whom It May Concern: I am writing this letter to formally announce my resignation from Parker International (& the arrogant, condescending CEO) effective two weeks from today. This was a VERY EASY decision to make, as the past two years have been utterly miserable. I wish his next executive assistant all the luck in the world (she'll need it) and if my boss should need me to do anything over the next two weeks, kindly tell him that he can do it [his] goddamn self... Sincerely (Not Really), Tara Lauren That’s the version of my two weeks’ notice I should’ve sent to my boss, because the more professional version - the one where I said I was "grateful for all the opportunities," and "honored by all the rewarding experiences" over the years? That letter was rejected with his sexy, trademark smirk and an “I highly suggest you read the fine print of your contract...” So, I did. And now I've realized that unless I fake my death, poison him, or find a way to renegotiate my impossible contract, I’m stuck working under one of the cockiest and most ruthless bosses in New York. Then again, I thought that was the case until he called me late last night with an emergency proposition... **This is a standalone contemporary romance.**

I’m on stage at the Auction House, barely dressed, ready to give up my virginity to the highest bidder. No matter if he’s human, shifter or…alien. A whole new life of safety and security, with an assumed name, is now ahead of me. And if this mysterious buyer wants to marry me and take me to his remote mansion in the hinterland, all the better. I just hope the guy with the winning bid is sweet, kind and maybe a little beta. A quiet billionaire who reads a lot? Because the last thing I need is another cruel alpha, like my stepfather, in my life. The lights go up and a roar echoes in the audience. A heavily armed, tattooed, red-eyed male pounds his fists against his hairy chest and strides straight for me. What the heck? My jaw drops when I see this “man” who won me. He’s…he’s an alien warrior with tusks? A squeak of dismay escapes my lips. Oh dear, this guy is entirely the opposite of what I imagined. “Mine,” the alien snarls, scoops me into his arms and races off into the night.
