Driven Wild by Jaye Peaches
When Leah Andrews’ father hires him to be her chauffeur, Rick Wilde finds himself drawn to the feisty eighteen-year-old even as his patience is tried by her immature behaviour. At last Leah’s rudeness and bad decisions force him to intervene, and he takes her over his knee for a good, hard spanking—the first of her pampered life—but neither of them are prepared for the powerful attraction which follows. Rick knows she needs time and space to step out on her own two feet without him there to interfere, though, and he breaks things off before they go too far.

After Leah’s father dies three years later she returns to her wild ways, and before long her license has been suspended for reckless driving. To her shock, the chauffeur the agency sends is none other than Rick Wilde, and she soon learns that he remains more than ready to bare her bottom and spank her soundly when she needs it.

Only fools fall in love...

After her senior year of high school leaves behind nothing but heartache, Olivia Beaumont is sure of this: She’s no stupid girl. She sets out for Winston College, promising herself that she will remain focused on her first and only love – astronomy. But all it takes is cocky sophomore Brax Jenkins and an accidental collision with a football, to throw her entire year off course.

A quick-tempered Southie who escaped the inner city streets of Boston to pitch for Winston, Brax is known to play way more fields than just the baseball diamond. So, when his name is drawn to take part in his fraternity’s hazing dare, Brax eagerly accepts the mission to take Olivia’s virginity. But he doesn’t plan on falling hard for the sweet and sassy Texas girl who sees right through his bad-boy persona.

As Olivia and Brax battle their feelings for each other, echoes of the past year begin to surface. A boy who once turned Olivia’s whole world upside down reappears, and “harmless” pranks wreak havoc. Pretty soon the aspiring astronomer is on the verge of revealing her most difficult, heartbreaking secret. All the while, Brax must wrestle with the irrevocable dare, and Olivia struggles against all logic as she does the one thing only a stupid girl would do: fall in love.

Cover & Excerpt Reveal

Wolver’s Gold by Jacqueline Rhoades
Wolver Series Book Four
Like Jane Eyre, Rachel Kincaid has two beings inside of her. One is the socially correct and proper lady she was raised to be. The other is strong, capable and opinionated. The only difference in Rachel’s case is that the opinionated one is a wolf; so opinionated Rachel has shut the animal down and sent it to sleep for fifteen years. It was the only way Rachel could function in the Old West Town run by her pack as a tourist attraction. The Victorian life they show to the tourists doesn’t end with the closing of the gates.

Being a wolver, part human, part wolf, Rachel needs the security and support of a pack, but what happens when that security and support is no longer there? What happens when the Alpha, the leader of the pack, no longer provides the ties that bind the members together as a family? What happens when the pack hierarchy of dominance becomes so extreme, half the pack has become second class with no rights at all?

Rachel knows she’s unhappy, but sees little that can be done until a new sheriff arrives in Gold Gulch. Suddenly, her wolf is awake and demanding freedom. But freedom comes at a price and the cost for Rachel may be the love of her life.

Challenger McCall is a ‘fixer’, and his job is to prevent the discovery of the wolver species by the outside, human world. His job exposes him to the worst of wolver behavior, and while he’s good at what he does, he never gets to enjoy the benefits of what he leaves behind. Living his life as a lone wolf isn’t the adventure it once was. It’s wearing him down, but like Rachel, his sense of duty and loyalty to his kind prevents him from seeing a future that holds anything different.

Even after meeting the feisty redhead who runs the hotel and makes his wolf act like a pup, McCall knows he can’t stay in Gold Gulch. Pack comes first.

Together, along with other members of the pack, Rachel and McCall, embark on a journey to right the wrongs of Gold Gulch, but what they are doing amounts to treason and the price of treason is death.
