Falling for my best friend's brother was not a part of my plan . . . especially while I was pregnant with someone else's child. In my defense, I got pregnant by a guy who wants absolutely nothing to do with me or the baby. And, just when I thought things couldn't get worse, I find out that my health insurance covers nothing for maternity care. Being in this alone is scary enough, but trying to figure out how I'm going to pay for my medical care? That's a whole new level of terrifying.

I have been in love with my brother's best friend for as long as I can remember. And he has no idea. He doesn't see me the way I see him. He doesn't see past the platonic friendship we've built since we were little. Miles Cooper is destined for greatness, on the path to NFL glory, only behind his superstar facade hides a dark secret. One I never thought possible. Now, he needs me in a way that could break my naive heart. But isn't it better to have loved and lost than never loved at all?

For the three years since the Reveal, when monsters rose from the shadows, I’ve been just another human trying to maintain normalcy in a world where life is short and brutal. Coexisting with werewolves, zombies, and vampires—each alarmingly true to their myths—isn’t easy. Now I’ve been summoned by Ariel Skinner, the charismatic king of the vampires, who holds my missing brother’s life in his hands. To save him, I must do everything Ariel says.

Ava Decker has hated me for just as many years as I've spent loving her. I made a mistake pretending our night together never happened. For pretending I forgot. But we were young, and I was getting ready to leave for college with big plans for the future. I had no plans to return to our small town in Colorado anytime soon, and Ava never wanted to leave. That alone was enough to keep me away from her while we both grew up. And yet, I never forgot about her and what she means to me.

I don't think anyone would've chosen to be a single dad before their driver's license even arrived in the mail, but that was the curveball that life threw at me. While my classmates were partying it up at football games and prom, I was dealing with ear infections and learning how to be the best kind of dad like my father was to me. I all but gave up on trusting a woman again and finding love as I had more important responsibilities: being a proud girl dad to Josie, helping my family out on their ranch, and starting my own construction business.

Football has always been my future. I play hard, I have fun, and I never let anything throw me off course. And then I met her. Daphne James. One night, no strings. Just her laughter, her lips, and the way she made me forget everything else. But by the next morning, she was gone. Or so I thought. Turns out, she's a freshman here at Cedar Lakes. And when I find out her dad is my coach, staying away isn't just smart, it's survival. He's made it clear that his daughter is off-limits. One wrong move, and I could lose everything. Until I can't. Because she's pregnant.

When the hard truths of my ex-husband were exposed, my world and that of our kids changed forever. We were tossed away like yesterday's trash by the man that was supposed to protect and cherish us. With my life in tatters, I had to stay strong. I had to be the support for my kids. I had to show them that we could rise above, so I did the one that brought me peace—I baked. I never expected to trust a man again, but fate had other plans. The moment he walked into my bakery, everything changed. It wasn't just my life but that of my kids as well. He lifted us from rock bottom and helped us heal.

In my world, marriage is a transaction between two families. Nothing more. So, when the head of the Mancini crime family approaches me with an offer to marry his daughter in exchange for what I need to destroy my enemy, I accept. But when a woman I've never heard of shows up on the contract, questions arise. If forcing her hand in marriage is what it takes to get what I want, then so be it. A wife was never meant to be anything more than a business transaction. A means to an end.

"I want your sperm." Those were Shelby Grant's first words to me. Didn't even want me to buy her a drink first. See, Shelby isn't like other women. After researching Denver's most eligible bachelors in search of her ideal sperm donor, she chose me. As a pro hockey player, I'm used to women wanting things from me, but my swimmers? That's a new one. Somehow, though, with her color-coded parenting plan, sales pitch, and contract, Shelby sells me on the idea. After my donation, she doesn't want anything more to do with me.

Jack Sullivan is a man of few words. His cold emotionless countenance shields any glimpse of the human being within. If he didn't hire me to help his daughter, I'd suspect the man sold his soul for success. He's classically handsome. Confident. Scratch that. He's one cocky mo-fo. Admittedly, I don't have the best track record at picking decent guys, but I'm pretty positive this brooding billionaire with a massive ego is one flashing red warning light.

One year ago, Amelie had it all. Almost engaged to her high school sweetheart, close to her childhood best friend, and cooking at her dad's restaurant—her life was exactly what she'd ordered. Until Ian, an opinionated wedding hater, popped up out of nowhere and proved she might like something off-menu. One year later, Amelie has lost it all. She's unemployed, single, and taking a break from her friendship. As for Ian? He's gone, too.

They call me the Ice Queen. I take it as a compliment, because owning a pro hockey team requires a certain ruthlessness.

There's only one solution: I have to get married, and fast.

Fresh out of college, I stumbled into the opportunity of a lifetime. My favorite professor had a friend who was looking to retire and sell his animal clinic. With a lot of help and a giant push from my sister and her husband, I made an offer. I'm happy with the occasional girls' night in and catching a glimpse of the hot neighbor, who I undeniably fantasize about—often.

Everyone knows who Caleb Kelley is. I'm at the top of my game, known all around Colorado and beyond for not only my elite skills in professional hockey but also my family's ranching heritage. For this reason, I trust very few people as I'm used to strangers and so-called friends trying to get close to us for a piece of fame. But when I receive a letter from a woman I slept with years ago, letting me know I'm a father, I implicitly trust her. Emily Russo is forever ingrained in my memory and is the exception to every rule.

My first operation in the field, the marriage is a cover. Damian Fisher is a CIA legend with a shaggy beard, chocolate curls, and deep blue eyes. As a teen, my girlfriends swooned in his presence.
