Between Commitment and Betrayal: An Arranged Marriage Romance (Free) by Shain Rose

My father's business partner will do anything for the empire they built together...Even marry me. Declan Hardy, All-American heartthrob and retired NFL billionaire, is my complete opposite. He's commanding where I'm cooperative. Spontaneous while I am deliberate. Loud when I stay quiet. The only thing we have in common is that both our names are on my father's will. He'll inherit the fitness and hospitality empire and I'll keep the one thing I hold dear. As long as I marry him—with conditions. One year of a fake marriage. One year of living together. One year of pretending I belong in his luxury lifestyle. But stipulations are never that simple. Especially when I can't tell if his kisses are fake or if I'm pretending when I kiss him back. And as more conditions arise, it's clear there's a fine line between commitment and betrayal... and neither of us knows where that line falls. Between Commitment and Betrayal is a billionaire, forced proximity, ...

Runaway Love: A Small Town Single Dad Romance by Melanie Harlow (Free)

Yes, I’m a single dad who needs a nanny for the summer. But hire the stranded runaway bride who shows up on my doorstep in a wedding gown with no references, no skills, and no experience? No one is that desperate. Except within twenty-four hours, down-on-her-luck Veronica Sutton manages to charm my kids, my family, and half the population of Cherry Tree Harbor into believing she’s perfect for the job. And for me. It’s not that I can’t see the appeal–those baby blue eyes? The endless legs? That mouth made for trouble? But I’ve got enough on my plate, raising two kids on my own and keeping the family business alive. I don’t have the time or the inclination to fall for an outspoken city girl. So I should have kept my hands to myself. Holding her in my arms was a big mistake. Even worse? Spending the night together. She ignites a possessive fire in me that I’m finding hard to snuff out. But the most unforgivable? Growing attached to the sound of her laugh, the scent of her skin, and the wa...

Fate of a Royal (Lords of Rathe Book 1) Free by Meagan Brandy (Author), Amo Jones (Author)

“You will go to Rathe University, live among the giftless and those of light magic. You, Knight Deveraux, will learn to coexist.” I’ve never heard more wasted words in my life. Then again, the gifted counsel never did have much to say that wasn’t. The only members amongst them who speak a thing worth listening to are my parents, the King and Queen of the Stygian’s, the people of Dark Magic. Unfortunately for me and my brothers, they’ve chosen to play nice instead of sinking their talons into anyone who dares demand a thing from their heirs. In this instance at least. Every gifted is forced to leave our realm behind after graduation to spend the next four years in a world that isn’t ours, while pretending it’s enough for those with something deeper clawing beneath their skin. It isn’t. Not by a long shot, and while it’s as boring as I thought it would be, we find ways to entertain ourselves. A little Fae Dust, the power of persuasion, and it’s a party worthy of a royal … or four. That w...
