TORN by Eleanor Green
“Be care how you look
at me sweetheart, you’re putting some wicked thoughts in my
mind.”
When Katie Harrington becomes engaged to
Branson Stone she believes her life is right on track for all her dreams to
come true.
However, flashes of a life she never
lived haunt her—leading her to discover a past that has been purposely erased
from her memory in order to protect her from horrible truths.
The look on her fiancé’s face as she
retells everything she remembers will forever be etched in her mind. Instead of
catching and comforting her, he lets her go.
Retreating to the family’s cottage on the
Outer Banks for the summer, Katie’s heart begins to heal. She succumbs to the
allure of a dangerously handsome local, Aidan Romero. But as soon as Katie
begins to let go and move on with Aidan . . . Branson finds her.
Now Katie is torn between two
lives—facing her painful past with Branson, or moving on with Aidan and keeping
the secrets safely buried forever.

COLLABORATION by Nevaeh Lee and Michelle Lynn
“Now that little Southern
Belle I just met…well, that’s a totally different story. I could feel the
innocence just pouring off that one, and damn if I didn’t want to be the man to
make a woman out of her.”
This is not your typical rock star
romance. For one, the “rock star” is a rapper. And not just any rapper. Trace
is the hottest ticket in the music industry right now, regardless of which
definition of ‘hot’ you choose.
Taryn Starr is not the girl-next-door who
unknowingly meets a celebrity. Known as “America’s Sweetheart,” the reigning
country music princess and world-renowned superstar knows exactly who Trace
is…or does she?
Their worlds collide when the musicians
whose paths were never destined to cross are forced by their joint record label
to collaborate on a song. The sparks fly and ignite a fire that blazes hotter
with every minute they spend together—for better or worse. One thing’s for
certain, the two media magnets can’t deny their explosive chemistry, but will
life in the spotlight ultimately bring Trace and Taryn together or force them
apart?

EVERSEA by Natasha Boyd
“It’s amazing,” he
repeated, “that you seem to have no idea how fucking beautiful you
are.”
When his co-star and real-life girlfriend
is caught cheating on him by the tabloids, A-list hottie, Jack Eversea, finds
himself in sleepy Butler Cove, South Carolina. Jack hopes the sultry southern
heat in this tiny coastal Lowcountry town will hide him not only from the
tabloids and his cheating girlfriend, but his increasingly vapid life and the
people who run it. He doesn’t count on meeting Keri Ann Butler.
Keri Ann has relied on herself so long,
dealing with her family’s death and the responsibilities of keeping up her
family’s historic mansion, that boys and certainly the meager offering of
eligible boys in Butler Cove, have never figured into her equation. But fate
has other plans. Suddenly face to face with the man who played the movie role
of her favorite fictional character, Jack has Keri Ann yearning for everything
she has previously avoided … and Jack must decide whether this funny, sassy
girl is worth changing his life for, before his mistakes catch up to him.

HE BELONGS WITH ME by Sarah Darlington
“I like you. I more
than like you. As hard as I try, I can’t seem to stop and I sure as hell don’t
want to try anymore.”
Two girls. One Leo.
Identical twins, Maggie and Clara Ryder,
both grew up with Leo Maddox, billionaire playboy, apparent alcoholic, and heir
to his grandfather’s world-famous Maddox hotel empire. Their roles were
cemented long ago: Maggie, as his best friend and Clara as his childhood
nemesis.
But when a simple twist of fate changes
everything and both girls start to fall for the lean, mean, ridiculously sexy
and seemingly spoiled Leo… which girl will win his heart?
Throw in a little mischief, drama, and
one smoking-hot bartender and lines are sure to blur. But one thing’s for
certain, neither good-girl Maggie nor rebellious Clara will be satisfied until
they each figure out where they belong.

RUMOR HAS IT by Elisabeth Grace
“Rumor Has It is quite
possibly one of the best New Adult debuts I’ve read–ever. I loved every hip-hop
minute of it and can’t wait to read the rest of the series! I devoured it, from
laugh out loud funny moments to hot Mason scenes, I was begging for more by the
time I finished reading.”–Rachel Van Dyken, #1 New York Times Bestselling

All publicity is good publicity, right?
Unless you’re recent college grad Ellie Wagner and an embarrassing video of you
and your boyfriend goes viral. Every man in your life abandons you, but who
knew a one-minute clip of your latest doomed relationship would brand you a
slut, prevent you from getting your perfect job, and force you to keep doing
the one thing you swore you’d never do again…live with your mother.
But staying with mom and her latest
boy-toy (is this husband number four or five?) until your life turns around
might not be all bad. Especially when you fall – literally – at the feet of a
sexy, green-eyed stranger who offers you freedom and a life of luxury on a
gold-rimmed platter.
There’s only one little problem – the man
of your dreams is none other than Mason Nash, the latest hip-hop star busting
up the music charts. Fame and fortune are his calling cards and he’s vying to
steal the show on a new reality TV series that will catapult him into
mainstream stardom. Hello spotlight.
The man behind
the famous persona is perfect for Ellie in every way, but can she overcome the
ugly pitfalls that come with Mason’s celebrity status? Or will she be forced to
choose between the man she loves and the independent life she longs for?
After all, fame and fortune aren’t always
what they seem and not all publicity is good publicity…

AT ANY PRICE by Brenna Aubrey
“Everything was
spinning around me and I-I was spinning too, delirious with want. Like a woman
drowning in the middle of a stormy sea, in desperate need of a life raft. That
sea was Adam Drake and he was pulling me adrift, stranding me in some strange
and forgotten land.”
Achievement Unlocked: Geek
Virgin
When Mia Strong, proud geek-girl and
popular gaming blogger, auctions off her virginity online, she knows she’ll
make waves. But what she will not be making is a love connection. Her rules are

It’s a desperate
step, but it’s the only way she can go to medical school and pay her mother’s
mounting hospital bills.
Difficulty Level: Millionaire
CEO
Adam Drake, the enigmatic auction winner,
is a software prodigy who made his first million at seventeen. Now, in his
mid-twenties, he’s sexy, driven and–as CEO of his own gaming company–he’s used
to making the rules. Before Mia knows what’s happening, he’s found the loophole
in the rules of her auction. Every stipulation she’s made to protect her heart
gets tossed by the wayside.
She can’t tell if he’s playing
her…or if he’s playing for keeps.

BACK TO LIFE by Danielle Allen
“Before you, I just
existed. I didn’t really live. I didn’t really feel. I was going through the
motions. And then I met you…” I stroked his face and gazed up at him. “And you
brought me back to life.”
Sahara Lee has spent the last ten years
living with the guilt of a tragic accident and its aftermath. That night
irrevocably changed the outgoing, fun-loving college freshman into an
introverted, workaholic with no social life. Sahara isolates herself from
everyone and everything that reminds her of home in an effort to forget what
happened. Using art as a substitute for love, Sahara throws herself into music
and art as a way to feel something other than the guilt that haunts her. She
accepts her lonely existence as penance for the role she played in the
accident. That is, until she meets Tyree Barker, the good looking entrepreneur
with baggage of his own.
Blindsided by a legal loophole, Sahara is
suddenly forced to confront the past she’s been running from. Juggling the
guilty feelings of her past and the unexpected feelings of her present,
Sahara’s future becomes complicated as she heads down a path of forgiveness,
love, and heartbreak…and not in that particular order.
Back to Life reminds you that living and
existing are two completely different ways to go through life. Grief will break
you but guilt, guilt will destroy you. And once that happens, what can bring
you back to life?

THE HIDDEN by Kelley R. Martin
“She was like
quick-sand–the more I struggled to get out, the more I sank. So I’d decided to
give up and embrace the sink down.”
On her first day of college, Emily meets
a walking, talking god. With a gorgeous face, killer blue eyes, and a body to
die for, it’s easy to see why Thomas Paige is the envy of every guy at Potomac
Ridge University and why every girl within a fifty mile radius wants to get a
piece of him.
Sounds great, right? Well, it would be if
Emily didn’t think he was such an ass.
Since she’s not interested in becoming
another notch on his bedpost, she tells him to shove it, and convinces herself
that her novel use of the word “no” is what’s got him hounding her all over
campus. But there are two sides to every story, and Thomas is determined to
make Emily hear his. Even if it does sound crazy and impossible.

want.
Unfortunately, Sadie’s troubled past left
her with insecurities that make her question Brady’s true intentions. And while
Brady is convinced that Sadie is the one for him, he has his own secrets that
he fears will be their undoing. If they want to be together, they will have to
