Going Down Hard

Nothing like he remembered...

All it takes to be a super-hot lingerie designer is chutzpah and a healthy dose of talent. Right? So why is Bridget Weiss making ends meet selling custom bras and thongs to Chicago's triple-X dancers? And now Adam Hale, her brother's best friend, is in town and thinks she's a stripper, too! Maybe she'll just let him sweat over that mix-up...

But everything he imagined

Truth is, Adam's been secretly lusting after sweet Bridget's bodacious curves for years. Just being near her is torture. But when she teases him with a private dance straight out of a VIP room, he's stunned by her bare heat. Tonight he'll follow her anywhere. Because tomorrow he's taking the lead....

"Dear Esteemed Clients,

Accountant Keeley Davis has been hired to find out who's been bilking money from the well-respected Bingham Bros. investment firm. To do so, Keeley will have to don a disguise and work closely with tastier-than-homemade-cherry-pie controller Dane Weiss!

As Keeley tramps herself up as Dane's personal assistant Cherry Smith her calculations start paying off big dividends--like when she serves up a hot plate of Dane ? la mode. But as things start to really sizzle, Keeley wonders whether she can keep her eyes on the bottom line...when all she can think of is keeping Dane in her bed?

Japanese art expert Megan Michiko O'Malley has many talents, but seduction isn't one of them. Yet after meeting a sexy stranger at a wedding, not only does she have an impromptu romp in the upstairs bedroom, but it's the most sensual sex she's ever had.

Meg might have slipped out of Rick Sokol's bed without leaving her real name or phone number, but that won't stop him from finding her. He isn't one of the best private investigators for nothing. Besides, he needs her expertise.

He's just discovered an erotic Japanese pillow book and is hoping Meg will be his study partner!

Biotech hotshot Alexandra Kendall is in way over her head. It's bad enough that a business trip to Belize has put her in danger. But now she finds out that the man hired to protect her is none other than former FBI special agent Cole Whittaker--the same man who'd loved her (oh God, how he'd loved her...) and then left her five years ago.

Reappearing in Alex's life is one of the biggest risks Cole has ever taken. Once his undercover job forced him to abandon her. Now he has the chance to redeem himself--one scorching kiss at a time.

But first he must convince Alex that the safest place for her is in his bed....

What Lily doesn't know is that she's actually flirting with a real prince in disguise. Jack is heir to a title and property, not to mention a world-renowned perfume company. And as the Comte de Brissard he's had a mess of trouble with women, especially in finding one who can see the man behind the title.

Pet concierge Mercy Jones has seen it all working at the exclusive Hush hotel in Manhattan. Pampered pooches, picky patrons...oh, puhleeze. It's enough to make a girl rewrite her r?sum?. But when mysterious Will Desmond checks in with his faithful companion Buster, Mercy has to steel herself. The dog is adorable, but it's sexy Will who's got her almost drooling.

Oh, Mercy... Will had to have her in his bed. Hugs, kisses and walkies in Central Park weren't enough. Especially with that sensuous suite upstairs just made for seducing a woman. A woman who might just show no mercy...when she discovers what he and his four-legged sidekick are really up to.

He's one big no-no. But all she wants to do is scream, "Yes, yes, yes!"

This is going to be a Christmas to remember for journalist Giselle Randolph! Especially when she meets her new photographer. Because she'll be working--in very close quarters--with the man she's lusted after for years.

Sexy Sam McKendrick...her former brother-in-law!

Sam's been in love with Giselle from the first moment he met her. Too bad he was married to her sister at the time. But he's not married now...and he's going to make sure Giselle knows how he feels. With a little help from a native shaman, he tunes in to her fantasies...and makes it a point to fulfill every one!

But perfectly taboo sex always has a price. And fantasies can take a guy only so far....
