The Climax Chronicles
(eBook)

Six steamy interconnecting stories featuring four friends and their journeys to true love and happiness while battling their demons and learning to let go of the past. Crimson Island is the last place in the world Calla Crane wants to be. She's only back to fix up her parents' dilapidated property and see her best friend. She hates that she's now the topic of conversation on an island where gossip is the national pastime, and the curious stares ask why she's back without the husband she so defiantly left town with. She keeps her head down on her checklist, and her plan works until she hires Diego Luna to landscape her yard.Diego is gorgeous. However, the last thing Calla needs is another gorgeous man. Her defenses drop a little bit more when she learns Diego is also very sensitive when he offers her a broad shoulder to cry on, and any other part of his body she'd like to have.Calla can't trust the desire in his eyes, even as her body clamors for him. She finds it hard to believe that a man as beautiful as Diego would want a woman with some extra pounds and extra baggage when even the man she'd married had repeatedly cheated on her. She finally gives in and accepts the solace and pleasure Diego offers while her shattered heart and damaged ego look on in suspicion. How can she trust a man who wants so much from her, yet emotionally gives her nothing of himself? Creed Dawson is most women's idea of the perfect man. Tall, sexy and rich as hell, he has a little black book of women clamoring to be at his side. Jillian Perkins isn't one of those women. The adjectives she would use to describe Creed are arrogant, rude, and annoying AF. Even his money can't redeem him in her eyes, because, like she so boldly told him, unlike him, she was born with a silver spoon in her mouth. Unfortunately, she does need Creed to feature one of her plays at his new mega-hotel, which will never happen if her temper keeps getting in the way. Creed just rubs her the wrong way, and the right way too, which is a serious problem for her. It goes against everything she believes in to fall for a rich bastard like Creed. As these two fall into bed and fall deeper into each other, dark secrets come to light. Will the bright lights blind them to the truth of what they really mean to each other? Bronte Manley is a woman on the run, and if her past ever catches up with her, she's a dead woman. Crimson Island is supposed to be a temporary place, a moment to catch her breath before moving on. Through a series of mistakes, she stays long enough to make friends, and then, Liam Cadwell walked into her life.Liam was the opposite of what she'd always known, a man with a dog who knew how to make great coffee and chocolate chip cookies. Bronte craves a moment's respite, a taste of something new in a good man's arms.She soon learns that even a good boy can have a dark side, and the man in whose arms she feels so alive, may be the most dangerous person she's ever known.

What he requires of Jessica is akin to selling her soul to the devil.
