Rumor had it he’d tripled his net worth within a year, and the starting number in his family trust fund had been none-too-shabby.
Everyone at The Fix had agreed that he’d be a great guy to have on the contest slate, and since he and Megan had run in the same circles in LA, she’d assured Jenna she could land him.
In fact, she’d not only run in the same circles, she’d actually crossed his path. Once, he’d even asked her out, making clear that he was very, very interested. She’d been tempted. He had a bad boy reputation, so he wasn’t a guy she’d want to date, but back in LA she’d been wilder and stupider, and there’d been a definite tug in the area of her nether regions.
She hadn’t accepted his offer, though. That was about the time she’d started dating Carlton. And he’d made it very clear that she was his exclusive property.
She shivered, remembering those months with him. Remembering more why she’d bolted.
She’d left Los Angeles without looking back, and her first sight of Parker in Austin had been an unpleasant twinge. That was part of why she hadn’t asked him to participate personally the first time. She’d put the request out through his assistant, who’d told Megan that Parker would love to be part of it.
But apparently his former assistant was a space cadet—and Megan was a stupid idiot for not making sure the signed agreement had been returned.
Now Parker was pissed because his picture was on flyers for a contest he knew nothing about, and Megan had to somehow dig herself out of this hole.
She had no idea how she was going to manage that. She hoped their past acquaintance would smooth the way. And groveling was definitely on the menu.
“Ms. Clark?”
At the sound of her name, Megan stopped pacing, probably to the great relief of the overly coiffed receptionist.
“Yes?”
“Mr. Manning will see you now. If you’ll just follow me?”
She drew in a deep breath, then nodded as she fell in step behind the leggy blonde. Parker’s office was down the hall. A corner office, of course, and when the receptionist opened the door, Megan was struck by the stunning view of the Capitol building, the University tower, and a wide spread of the Austin skyline.
More than that, though, she was struck by the sight of the man who stood in front of his desk, leaning casually against it in a light gray suit that looked like it cost more than she made in a year. Possibly two.
His eyes met hers, an icy blue that somehow radiated heat.
“Ms. Clark,” he said, his voice a sensual tease. “I understand we have a little problem.”
“I—well, yes.” She sounded like an idiot, but dear God, he was distracting.
His eyes swept over her in an inspection so slow and intimate it left her with the distinct impression that he’d seen right through her simple black dress. “Fortunately, I have a solution.”
“Oh,” she said. “Um, what?”
That wide, sensual mouth curved up with obvious amusement. “I thought that would've been obvious, Megan. I want you.”

Sneak Peek: In Your Eyes
Possessive hands. Wild obsession.
He’ll break any rule to claim her.
Billionaire bad boy Parker Manning buried his dark past beneath fast cars and faster women. With his chiseled good looks and Texas oil legacy, Parker’s used to laying claim to whatever—or whoever—he desires, and he’s never met a woman he couldn’t seduce into his bed.
Not, that is, until Megan Clark. Years ago, she flatly refused him. Now, she’s back—and she needs a favor. No way is Parker letting her get away again, and he conditions his agreement on one sensuous night with Megan in his bed and at his mercy.
He never expects to want more. To crave this woman who fascinates and challenges him. But he does, and now he’s determined to possess her.
But Megan’s a woman with secrets of her own, and if Parker wants to claim her, he’s going to have to conquer his past and show Megan his true heart.
Meet Mr. June. Summer’s heat has nothing on him.

Born in Darkness
Fight and redeem myself … refuse and suffer an eternity of torment.
I intended to kill him—to avenge my sister by destroying the vile human who’d tortured and broken her. My plan was simple. Foolproof.
Except somehow I ended up dead.
Now the joke’s on me, because I’ve been resurrected as an assassin and given a choice: Fight the forces of darkness and redeem myself … or refuse and suffer an eternity of torment.
The choice seems clear. But I’m unprepared for the depth of the evil I must face. And I’m unsettled by my attraction to the darkly sensual man whose words seduce me, but who is hiding secrets of his own.
All I know is what I’m told. I’m afraid I’m a pawn in a much larger game where I can’t tell my enemies from my allies. I just hope it’s a game I can win.

Down On Me
With his tight muscles and vibrant ink, certified bachelor Reece Walker is the kind of man who’s used to having any woman he craves in his bed—except Jenna Montgomery. She’s been his best friend for years, and that’s a line he just can’t cross.
Until a wild, stolen kiss changes everything. Now anything goes, and Reece is determined to use every wicked skill in his sensual repertoire to claim Jenna as his friend, his lover, his everything.

Carpe Demon
Kate Connor is your average, everyday mom with two kids, a husband, and one very big secret ... she used to be a Demon Hunter for a secret arm of the Vatican. Now retired, she's more interested in the domestic than the demonic. So when she catches sight of a demon in Wal-Mart, she tells herself it's some other Hunter's problem. But when that demon attacks her in her kitchen, retirement is no longer an option.
Now Kate has to kick a little demon butt, figure out why the creatures are trying to take her out and take over her home town, and at the same time take care of her 2 year old, deal with a hormonal 14 year old, get the family to Catholic Mass on time, and try to keep her past a secret from her daughter and her husband.
She's a little out of practice, but hey ... if she can juggle two kids and an impromptu dinner party, ridding the town of demons should be a piece of cake. Like the saying goes, Carpe Demon ... and Kate intends to do just that.
