Texas One Night Stand Series by Joan Reeves


Are You Ready For A One Night Stand?


The Trouble with Love

There's one rule for a one night stand: NEVER see your part-time lover again. EVER.

So what's a girl to do if the tall, dark, and too-darn-yummy guy shows up at her office?

By-the-book Deputy Susannah Quinn has all she can do to resist Special Agent D. E. Hogan.

Hang on to your Stetson as the fun and games begin in this sexy romp that's as hot as a bowl of Texas chili!

To catch a thief, Susannah Quinn, a by-the-book deputy, and FBI Special Agent D. E. Hogan (just call me Hogan), pose as husband and wife and go undercover. Unfortunately, Susannah and Hogan have already been undercover – in a bed at the Houston hotel where they first met.

For her part, Susannah wishes her lapse in judgment would take a flying leap and land on Jupiter. Hogan, on the other hand, wants to get the contrary deputy back in his bed, but the complications caused by family – his and hers – pretty much guarantee that's never going to happen.

Throw in an over-the-hill Romeo and his lady love, a single mom determined to have her own love affair, and the charm of a small Texas town, and you get a story with heart and soul and passion. Lots of passion.

Can Susannah and Hogan, two mismatched lovers doing everything in their power to avoid falling in love, catch a thief and recover stolen jewels? The clock is ticking. They have only seven days – and nights – to complete their assignment and resist the sweet siren call of desire.

Praise for The Trouble With Love:

"I just finished The Trouble With Love and I LOVED IT.  I read it on my Kindle and I couldn't put it down. I loved how she had multiple romances going on. Joan put lots of life's comedy into the books."

Romeo and Judy Anne

Good girls just can't win! High school principal Judy Anne Palmer was always a good girl who never did an impulsive, rebellious thing. Ever. And look where it got her!

One night in Dallas, she meets a man and decides to indulge in a liberating night of passion--liberating her from the stigma of being the oldest living virgin north of the Rio Grande. After all, she'll never see her one-night Romeo again.

Unfortunately, the night doesn't turn out exactly the way she planned, and her one-night Romeo isn't exactly one-night stand material.

When he turns up in her hometown as a new teacher on her faculty, Judy Anne knows that she's in big trouble. Can she resist the desire that burns between her and Romeo? Can a night of illicit love be enough?

With eccentric small town characters, a bratty niece, an overbearing school board president, and the temptation of a secret lover, Judy Anne has all she can do to keep her passion from turning into the biggest scandal little Clayton Bend, Texas, has ever seen.

Praise for Romeo and Judy Anne:

"A delightful, touching romance."

"Fun book with great sex scenes!"

"I can't recommend this story enough. The characterization is deep and the end as satisfying as the reader could hope for. I am now anxiously awaiting book 3, Forever Starts Tonight, of this very addictive series."

The Case of the Flashing Fashion Queen by N.L. Wilson

A Dix Dodd Mystery



Fed up with being kicked around, Dix Dodd quits her job at the big P.I. agency where she's worked for years and hangs out her own shingle at the ripe age of 40. There are plenty of cheating husbands to go around and Dix has a knack for busting them. The guys back at the old firm are laying bets about how soon she'll come crawling back, and Dix quickly learns that this self-employed business doesn't pay much.

Then Dylan Foreman enters her life.

The minute she learns that Dylan was fired from his law firm and disbarred for putting common decency before the firm's interests, Dix hires him on the spot. Anyone can see the man is smart. The fact that he's gorgeous enough to remind her she's a woman is just whipped cream on the cupcake. And at 28, he's young enough to make her feel like a total cougar.

Business starts hopping when Dix is hired by a millionaire's wife who suspects her husband is cheating. Tailing a man 24/7 for a cool ten grand should be easy-peasy, right? Wrong! Dix finds herself mired in a murder investigation, and she is the prime suspect. The officer in charge of the case? Well, that would be none other than Richard Head (a.k.a. Detective Dickhead, a cheating husband she's nailed in the past), and he's gunning for her.

Dix will need all her ingenuity, as well as the help of Dylan and an oddball cast of supporters, if she's to extricate herself from this maddening and murderous mess.

Reviews:

"...awesomely entertaining, with a good mystery and some kick butt characters."

"I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a fun mystery featuring a likeable female lead and an appealing cast of characters."

"A rollicking good read!"

Deadly Memories by Pamela M. Richter


What She Can't Remember Might Kill Her...



"She doesn't remember a thing," Rolph snapped into the phone.

Andrea froze. His back was turned away from her. He didn't know she was there, listening.

"It's been six months, for God's sake. If you harm one hair on her head, I'll contact the authorities. My father would be disgraced, but that will not deter me."

Now Andrea couldn't move. There was no doubt Rolph was talking about her. She wondered how his father, the French Ambassador, could be disgraced.

His voice modulated to a threatening whisper. "This is the end. Otherwise she goes directly into protective custody, and I spill my guts. You've lied to me, made me into a damned traitor, and I'm angry enough to do it out of spite."

Now Andrea knew there were secrets he was keeping from her. What did he mean about protective custody? Was she in danger? The one blank spot in her mind was a mysterious car crash. She didn't know how she had landed at the bottom of a cliff in the
Santa Monica mountains of Los Angeles. She remembered the fabulous party in Beverly Hills that night, but try as she might, she couldn't remember the sequence of events leading to the accident.

Rolph's last words chilled her, "I have nothing to lose. I'm a dead man."

What readers are saying:

"This carefully sculpted story did not disappoint; it is infused with romance, friendship, challenges, tragedy, mystery, conspiracy, despair, hope, and danger, all leading to a suspenseful showdown."

"Well written! Very descriptive and kept me guessing what and who committed the crime. Nice love story mixed in with it."

The Fireman Who Loved Me by Jennifer Bernard


~Turn Up The Heat...Call In The Fireman~



Fearless, smoking hot, and single: meet the Bachelor Firemen of San Gabriel. These firemen might be heroes, but it's their bad luck in love that makes them legendary.

News producer Melissa McGuire and Fire Captain Harry Brody couldn't be more different, though they do have one thing in common: they're both convinced they're perfectly wrong for each other. But when Melissa's matchmaking grandmother wins her a date with Brody at a Bachelor auction . . .

Sparks fly. Passion flares. Heat rises. (You get the picture.)

Add a curse, a conniving nightly news anchor, a stunningly handsome daredevil fireman, a brave little boy, a couple of exes, and one giant fire to the mix, and Melissa and Brody's love may not be the only thing that burns.

"Smith's beautifully crafted love letter to her friend Robert Mapplethorpe functions as a memento mori of a relationship fueled by passion for art and writing. Her elegant eulogy lays bare the chaos and the creativity so embedded in that earlier time and in Mapplethorpe's life and work."

A woman without a past...
After a tragic accident left her with no memory, Kate Alexander struggled to fit in with a husband and world that didn't feel right.

A girl who can't be anyone but a daughter Kate didn't know she had.

A man desperate for a reason to live...
Ryan Harrison lost his wife in a plane crash five years ago. To cope with the pain of her loss, he dedicated himself to his job and to raising their daughter.
