The Geek Gets the Girl by by Michele Hauf
According to the wrinkled strip of paper taped over the original brass placard on the office door, Rachel Parker was the manager of the Paris Haute Heels office. Zac assumed Miss Parker was the woman who strode down the parquet-floored aisle between cubicles with the air of a confident runway model, red heels clicking smartly. Not even the weight of the office supplies she carried could lower her proud jaw. Juggling a coffee cup in one hand, file folders, binders, purse and briefcase in the crook of an elbow—not to mention a mouthful of pink phone messages—she shrugged by Zac where he stood in the doorway to her office, and lunged toward the glass-topped desk to release her burden.

The sleek bend of her body sprawling over the desktop begged attention. A clingy, dark blue dress hugged her from shoulders to mid-thigh, and he visually caressed the taut curve of her ass. Hmm, what did the French call it? Derriere. Nice. And when in France… His fingers cruised an imaginary stroll over the dangerous curves. Shifting into high gear, he hugged the corner and stepped on the accelerator, moving down around her thigh. Breathy pants encouraged his actions until—

Those breathy pants ceased, and the woman whose curves he’d just mastered in a matter of three fantasy seconds stood staring at him, green eyes narrowed in stern summation.

Conjuring a save to cover the distraction that had almost netted him the yellow flag, he tapped the paper taped over the door’s nameplate. “Snazzy dΓ©cor you’ve got here, Miss Parker.”

“Cutbacks. Tightening the proverbial office belt. It works for me.” Long coils of chestnut hair danced over the spill of office ephemera as she nestled the paper coffee cup into a nook amidst the scatter. “And you have finally arrived.”

She caught his surprise and reacted, propping a manicured hand on her hip. “Seriously? How long does it take for IT to process a call for help? I know all eight private offices in this building share one tech department, but you must have more than one guy to handle service calls.”

“IT?” Nowadays, he generally put his fingers on sales figures, outlook charts, and the butter-soft leather in the company jet. Zachary Cosgrove had moved up from humble IT guy. Way up. “Oh, you assume—”

Sands of Seduction by Katy Walters
‘So you didn’t pull away when he kissed your hand?’

‘Oh no, quite the opposite, I wanted to kiss him. Honestly Ceci, I’ve read of that impulse in romance novels, but never got to grips with the heroine having feelings darting to her stomach and down to her groin. But, this guy’s  knocked me off my pedestal, I’m not the iron maiden I thought I was, in fact all I could think of, was his iron rod.’

‘Good god Clary, is that you talking? Really? You sexy thing.’

‘Hmm – I know I was mad with him, but the feeling hasn’t gone away either.’

‘So you’ll ring him then?’

‘Yes, I’ve cooled down now; I can see he was teasing me. I feel like ringing him, but honestly I don’t want him to think I’m a push over, or panting for him. He’s so dominant, he’d have my knickers down before I had chance to breathe.’

‘Wow he sounds incredible, ring him, go on, ring him – now.’

‘No, I have to be strict, make him wait. But he did say that if I didn’t ring him in three days, he’d come looking for me. Mind you he did beg and tease me, but underneath I think he really meant it, he will come looking for me.’

‘Go on; ring him, maybe he could help out at the Centre.’

‘Hmm I’m not sure, he has muscles in all the right places, well at least I hope he does.’

Celia shrieked, ‘Clary, gosh, you’ve got it bad.’

‘I know, I should feel guilty Ceci but all I can think of …. I’m not going to say anymore; I am overheating here.’

‘Okay, then let’s change the subject.’

‘No – no, first you’ve got to tell me about the guy you met, you promised.’

Celia blushed. ‘Well he was tall, with blond curls, in fact my heart was going nineteen to the dozen, he was an Adonis come to life. His eyes glittered, like quartz stone, if that’s the right word for them. He’s was such a zany character you know. Joking, laughing, but he was a wee bit weird.’

Kathy Ivan
USA TODAY Bestselling author Kathy Ivan spent most of her life with her nose between the pages of a book.

It didn't matter if the book was a paranormal romance, romantic suspense, or action and adventure thrillers, sweet & spicy or sexy novella. As long as there was an alpha hero and a feisty heroine who got their happily ever after, she'd gladly spend her time with a psychic in New Orleans, or a mysterious stranger manipulating the fate of lovers.

Her books transport you from a paranormal lodge in the Colorado Mountains to the sultry splendor of the French Quarter in New Orleans in her award winning romantic suspense and mysteries.

Melissa Keir
Melissa Keir has always wanted to be an author when she wasn’t hoping for a career as a race car driver. Her love of books was instilled by her mother and grandparents who were avid readers. She’d often sneak books away from them so that she could fantasize about those strong alpha males and plucky heroines. In middle school and high school, Melissa used to write sappy love poems and shared them with her friends and still has those poems today! In college her writing changed to sarcastic musings on life as well as poems with a modern twist on fairy tales and won awards for her writing. You can find many of these musings along with her latest releases on her website and blog. 

Melissa doesn’t believe in down time. She’s always keeping busy. Melissa is a wife and mother, an elementary school teacher, a book reviewer, owner of a publishing company as well as an author. Her home blends two families and is a lot like the Brady Bunch, without Alice- a large grocery bill, tons of dirty dishes and a mound of laundry. She loves to write stories that feature happy endings and is often seen plotting her next story.

Dani Havilland
I work, I play, I write, and I counsel. These are my past times I spend to keep myself busy throughout my day.

I write Romantic Suspense with tough, alpha males who know what they want until they're gob-smacked by heroines who are strong, contemporary women willing to show them what they really need is love.
