Ella Brown. The prettiest little thing I’ve ever laid eyes on. She doesn’t realize it yet, but she’s already mine. Sure, she fights it—says she’s not interested.

Ten years ago, my four stepbrothers left without a backward glance. Now they've returned, and they're not looking at me like a little sister anymore.

But they made it clear I didn’t when all four of them left town just after my 16th birthday without so much as a good-bye.

She doesn’t see the way men look at her, like wolves circling something pure and untouched. She doesn’t see the dangers, but I do. And I’ll protect her from every single one of them.

Life it seems is hell-bent on crushing Eva Chapman. Starting with the tragic loss of her brother, for which she is solely to blame, to the unfortunate turn of events that have landed her where she is now: on her knees, hiding behind the counter at a hole-in-the-wall bookstore, in a small town in the middle of nowhere, with local police in hot pursuit.

When I’m chosen to star on the nation’s most popular reality dating show, I feel like the luckiest girl in the world. Being selected to star on For Keeps is a dream come true. Beautiful clothes, luxurious locations, and men--lots and lots of men. Thirty, to be exact. And it’s my job to narrow thirty down to one. Easy, right? Not when there are so many good men, and not when I start to fall in love with more than one of them.

Riley was living the dream. Running her own business, being her own boss, and finally moving into her own place. Things couldn’t be any better, well, with the exception of catching Carter Miller’s attention. If only the sexy man next door would ever make his move. Maybe she’ll just have to nudge him along?

Especially when his brother’s wedding was less than a month away and he was forced to work one-on-one with the woman who made his body, mind, and heart betray his better judgment.

She’s going to be his one way or another—even if he has to stalk her. When I opened the doors to my new club, I thought it would be business as usual. Crowds, chaos, and control—just how I like it.

Gorgeous and wildly successful, they're playboys who love to have a good time—no strings, just for kicks. How can I focus on finding a family man if I'm having meaningless fun with them?

Lilly Stevens didn’t have time to flirt anymore, and that was a real shame because the man of her dreams was right next door. Opening a boutique, Classy and Sassy, with her cousin has taken all of her free time, and her spending money. Still, it was hard to say no to the blond-haired man with sexy green eyes and a killer smile.

It’s time Matthew admitted he has bitten off more than he can chew by purchasing the old house on the hill. After all, it was just going to be a side project. Having his new brother-in-law fix up the place had been easy enough. Spending the first night in the old place, he’d gotten a little more than he’d bargained for, and now the interior decorator he’d hired was the only one who could corroborate his crazy stories. Blake Shelby was hired to fit what was going to become one of the best projects in her new career. The old place was a perfect setting to show off her skills.
