Wenn dein Herz in tausend Scherben liegt ...
Josephine Valentine und Archer Reyes sind seit ihrer Kindheit unzertrennlich, obwohl sie doch unterschiedlicher nicht sein könnten: Zwar besuchen beide die elitäre Exeter Academy, aber während Josephine als Tochter reicher Eltern mit Privilegien und Erwartungen aufwächst, muss Archer für seine Chancen und Erfolge kämpfen. Doch als sie bemerken, dass aus ihrer Freundschaft Liebe wird, ändert sich alles zwischen ihnen. Aus Angst, ihre Gefühle könnten nicht erwidert werden, halten Archer und Josephine ihre neuen Empfindungen verborgen. Zu groß ist ihre Sorge, den einen Menschen zu verlieren, der sie vervollständigt. Und dann ist da noch ein dunkler Schatten in Archers Umfeld, von dem Josephine nichts weiß und der all ihre geheimen Träume und Hoffnungen zerstören könnte
Erster Teil des ANYMORE-Duetts
Shelby Hunt has the perfect life, married to the perfect man.
At least, that's what anyone would think, looking at her. They couldn't possibly know about the past five years of lonely nights, or the divorce papers still sitting unsigned on her husband's desk, or the shady business practices he's brought home on more than one occasion-often in the form of scary men with loaded guns and briefcases full of laundered cash.
The truth is, Shelby's perfect life is starting to feel like a prison . . . one she's not sure she'll escape from alive . . .
Special Agent Conor Gallagher has no time for romance.
As the head of Boston's elite Organized Crime division, the seasoned FBI agent is far more interested in tracking down bad guys than wining-and-dining dates. But when a new case steers him directly into Shelby's path, he can't help the fierce protective instincts that rise up inside him.
She needs an ally. A protector. Someone to keep her safe until the fallout from her husband's criminal activities is contained. But as Conor gets closer to the plucky brunette, that protectiveness starts to feel a whole lot like passion . . .

For Delilah Sinclair, catching a man's attention has never been a problem.
It's the part that comes later-the happily-ever-after part-that always seems to trip her up. All her friends may be settling down, but this fiery redhead has no intentions of ever being tamed . . .
Until she meets a man just as wild.
Luca 'Blaze' Buchanan is the best fighter to come out of Boston in years. Men want to be him, women want to be with him, and no one smart ever bets against him. He's more savage than knight-in-shining-armor, but that suits him just fine: he has no plans to ever allow a woman to domesticate him.
That is, until a certain sultry redhead finds herself in need of salvation. In the midst of sudden danger, their slow-burning attraction sparks into something far hotter . . . an inferno neither of them knows how to put out.
One thing is indisputable: no one is walking away without getting singed . . .

Zoe Bloom has her life figured out. After a childhood spent begging for scraps on Boston street corners, she's clawed her way to a successful career and a safe place to call home.

And forget about frivolous romantic entanglements. She can barely juggle her own problems; she certainly doesn't have time to handle anyone else's crap. Parker West has spent his life running. From responsibility. From obligation. From the corporate CEO position he's always been expected to take over. He'd rather climb Kilimanjaro than sit in a board meeting with stiffs in suits. When a crisis at the family company forces him to return to Boston, he has no choice but to stop chasing adventures-temporarily. As soon as things are back in order, he fully intends to sail off into the sunset . . . Until he locks eyes with a mysterious blonde who screams trouble and sets his senses on fire. For the first time in his life, Parker doesn't want to run. In fact, when it comes to Zoe, he may want to do something he's never done before: stay.

She knows that it's time to let him go, though just the thought is nearly enough to shatter her. Nathaniel "Nate" Knox has only ever seen Phoebe as one thing: forbidden. There's a darkness in Nate, the kind you can't avoid after years working in special forces and private security.

In service to his country, he's done unspeakable things, the kind of things that make settling down or falling in love out of the question. That's never been a problem, until he meets Faith. No matter how many times Wes tells himself that she's just a mark, he can't deny that she rattles his composure like no one else. And he can't seem to shake the forbidden feelings that stir to life whenever he's with her. Wes knows better than anyone that the line separating fact from fiction is almost as fine as the one between love and hate. And, if the truth comes out, it may erase their love along with all the lies.Contains mature themes.

Gemma Summers is unlucky in love. She's known it since third grade, when her first crush blew a spitball into her hair, and a decade-long string of bad dates, boring sex, and abysmal morning-afters has done nothing to improve her prospects. But when a random radio call-in contest lands her courtside tickets to the hottest playoff game of the season, Gemma's luck may finally be on the upswing, even if it doesn't exactly seem like it when the dreaded jumbotron kiss-cam lands on her and her date, who's too busy ignoring her to notice. Chase Croft doesn't date. Despite ample opportunity as Boston's most eligible bachelor, the reformed bad boy would rather put his energy into taking over the family business than weed through a world of gold-diggers to find an honest woman. But when the beautiful girl in the seat next to him becomes a courtside spectacle at the hands of her loser boyfriend, he can't help but step in and save the day.
