Straight Romance

I was not always this way—a man feeding his demons with addictions, a monster driven by bloodlust. I had a family once, but I chose one above all others to protect from the animals we lived with, and even then, I failed.

Whispers on the street say I’m psychotic, but everyone knows I’m a calculated killer.

Then there’s Lacey. The one woman who keeps my demons at bay. She became my new addiction the moment she walked into my life. With threats from my past returning, I need to stop the same fate from happening to her.

I will not fail to protect what is important to me yet again.

Victory is bittersweet when your life hangs in the balance. Threats are eradicated one by one, for us to find we’ve fallen into a trap of lies and false hope. A devised plan that took us by surprise by a man not bothering to hide in the shadows.

They’re not the only people hiding something.

I’ll be damned if I let them win. They don’t get to define me or determine my future. Nothing makes you fight harder than having the love and devotion of a Lamont man. Antonio will stop at nothing to protect his own–blood or not.

Second chances don’t come often in our world.

Intimacy can be awkward ... but someone’s gotta write about it.

His MasterChef-inspired smash-hit Heat in the Kitchen left readers voracious for a sequel, but Sam’s muse ran off with a hulking, tattooed biker, and his new manuscript is more fizzle than sizzle. Sam needs help – a special ingredient to inspire the spicy scenes his editor (and career) demands.

When the circus rolls into the small town of Moonshine, Sam stumbles upon Anita Fortuna, a psychic who firmly believes that wishing upon a star will make your dreams come true. Together, they resolve to whip his manuscript into shape, and succumbing to personal temptations is not an option – no matter how enticing the offer might be.

On a deadline, and with Sam’s career at stake, can Sam and Anita find the write way for romance, define their own stories, and discover whether words are enough? Or is the whole deal a recipe for disaster?

One immature dare.

Two childhood enemies.

Three kisses to bring him to his knees ...

Check in to The Wolf Hotel, a luxury hotel chain with smokin' hot bosses and even steamier action between the sheets. This bundle includes all five titles by KA Tucker. 

• Tempt Me
• Break Me
• Teach Me
• Surrender to Me
• Own Me

Start with Tempt Me:

I ran from home to escape heartbreak, only to deliver myself into the hands of a wolf.
Henry Wolf, that is.

Heir to a luxury hotel chain.
Infamous playboy.
Arrogant bastard.
And my new boss.

Why he wants me, Abbi Mitchell—a girl who lacks experience on every front that would matter to him—as his personal assistant, I cannot fathom, especially when I keep screwing up in the most spectacular way.

Did I already mention he’s a bastard?
A beautiful, moody one, who’s quick to demand, slow to apologize.
And toying with me every chance he gets.
Testing me.
Messing with my head in a way that makes my body crave him.
He knows it, and he doesn't hide the fact that he enjoys doing it.
He says he doesn’t want me for more than my mediocre computer skills and color-coding flair.
He says he’s not willing to risk losing his empire for a tangle in the sheets with “the help.”

But I’m beginning to think that’s a big, dirty lie.

Benedict has never been anyone's knight in shining armor, but when he finds Rosanna in need of rescue, he can't help but step in.

Benedict

I knew the minute I laid eyes on Rosanna she was the one for me. I also knew there was something fishy about her boyfriend. Helping her kick him to the curb should have been easy. But neither of us anticipated just how much no-good he was up to.

Rosanna

I'ts no fun finding out your boyfriend is cheating. And when he works for your father? Well, it's complicated. The last thing I need is a not-so-teeny-tiny crush on my rescuer.

If Rosanna's not careful she could find herself caught up in a marriage of convenience with her scheming ex-boyfriend. Ben can't let that happen, even if it means coming clean to his family about what he's really been up to all these years.

This story features a hero with something to hide, a heroine with plently to lose and a plan that involves unlikely allies, a bit of cloak and dagger, and a whole lot of luck.

Tropes: He falls first; curvy heroine; fresh scent of pining hero; you called you came; avoiding a marriage of inconvenience; secret lives and troublesome exes.

Lulu

Why does the sexiest man I've ever met in real life have to be so annoying?
Not that it matters. I'm not interested in a relationship, thank you very much.

Nick

She has some nerve, waltzing into my law firm thinking she can up-end my ordered existence with her arty ways.
Being gorgeous is no excuse. It's a shame my boxers didn't get the memo.

A no-strings relationship seems like the perfect solution for Nick and Lulu. But sometimes the universe has other ideas, and it's not long before they're both questioning their feelings. Yet neither is ready to risk their heart and upset the delicate balance of their arrangement.

When Nick decides to wait for the perfect time to tell Lulu he wants more, he unwittingly sets off a chain of events that prove disastrous. Can he convince her things are not as they seemed? And can Lulu overcome her fear of commitment so they can create the life they never knew they wanted?

Josh

I can’t believe I hit on my best friend’s little sister. In my defence, she’s changed since I last saw her ten years ago. A lot. I wish things were different, but there’s no way I’m going there.

Greer

Josh may think denying our connection is the right thing to do, but I’ve got news for him. And working together on renovating his new house gives me the opportunity I need to prove it to him.

Giving in to temptation puts everything Josh holds dear at risk, but not giving in might just break both their hearts.

This story features a reluctant hero with abandonment issues, a determined heroine with an unshakeable belief in love, a family who knows much more than they’re letting on and a grand gesture the whole of Sydney gets behind.

Will

Freyja 

Getting involved with a client is never a good idea. But there’s something about Will I can’t resist. Surely, a limited-time offer will mean I can’t get too attached. Right?

Freyja’s got a lot on her plate. A failing veterinary practice. The threat of disease outbreak. And a serious crush on her one and only client.

Meanwhile, Will has his own problems. A farm he’s ill-equipped to run. Demons he keeps tightly under wraps. And a serious crush on his vet.

But supporting each other through the toughest time of their lives doesn’t mean they’re meant to be. Does it?

“Some things are worth breaking for…”

When Mia and Arden Drew are in a horrific car accident, the dreams they shared for their future balance on a precipice. As a talented neuropsychologist working for one of the world’s foremost experimental human research facilities, Mia uses the resources at her fingertips to save her husband’s life.

Mia’s grief-fuelled decision catapults her into the depths of a messy court case where her actions are subjected to intense public scrutiny. Her intentions, relationships, and career are put to the ultimate test as the people around her question how far she should have gone to save her husband, and whether he is still the man she fell in love with. Now, she must face the truth of what she’s done and try to piece together the shards of her shattered dreams, or risk losing her husband once and for all.

Abducted by aliens in the middle of the night, then dumped on a foreign planet in nothing but my flimsy nightclothes.

Any number of predators could have eaten me.

Well, as it turns out, I was—eaten, I mean—by a hulking alien who really knew what he was doing when it came to pleasing human women.

Is he my protector or my captor?
And what happened to the other women I was abducted with?

Something must be seriously wrong with me because I want to ask for his help to find the other women, but even with our language barrier, I find my thoughts drifting. And the way he touches me tells me his thoughts are anything but pure.

I must be crazy. There are dangers on this planet he’s only hinted at, a reason I’m here I don’t know, and yet when I’m with my alien savior, all I can think is when he touches me, I really, really, like it.

I’ve been abducted, torn from my home, experimented on, then left stranded on a strange planet.

The other girls who were abducted with me are out there somewhere, and I need to navigate an unfamiliar landscape to find them, while fighting for survival. Easy, right?

Things are complicated further when I find an alien.
Or more to the point, he finds me.

He won’t leave me alone, no matter what I do. And, as we spend more time together, the way I’m drawn to him defies reason and logic—he’s protective and caring in a way I crave.

But then a contradicting side of him emerges—a wild beast driven by primal instincts, savage and unpredictable.

And I wonder if I’m safer without him.

As the line between survival and desire blurs, it becomes undeniably clear that there are few things more distracting than a sexy alien determined to keep me happy.

I must be crazy. The way he looks at and touches me should be terrifying, but instead I really, really like it.

Stuck on an alien planet with no means of escape. I can’t say I’ve been in worse situations.

It’s my nature to try to look on the bright side and remain positive in the face of adversity. Even when everything seems to be going completely crazy.

My resolve is tested when I’m taken by an alien who looks like a demon. He’s primal and aggressive – but when my life is in danger, he surges to my rescue.

I get small glimpses that there’s something more to him, convincing me he’s simply a wounded animal unsure how to respond to kindness. He’s keeping things from me, not only why I’m on this planet, but also about himself.

Is he a victim too?

With all of this to consider, why is it that when I try to think of ways to thank him for helping me, my mind only goes in one direction? I’m inexperienced and feel it’s wrong to have these indecent thoughts.

As desire heaves through me, I wonder, does he want to give into it like I do?

Being abducted by aliens whose sole intention is to use me for breeding is not how I saw this year panning out.

Add to that a different species of alien helping me escape, it couldn’t get any stranger.

I had to put all my trust in Sahcor, the alien who helped me flee. The only problem is, as we spend more time together, our mutual attraction can’t be ignored. My alien savior, who seems intent on pleasing me in every way, is a distraction I am losing my will to fight.

When I finally give in to my desires, I forget everything else outside of his wandering webbed hands.

But my original captors are still hunting me and are desperate for my recapture.
I keep my distance from the other women who were abducted alongside me, fearing being near them puts them in certain danger.

I’d rather face this world alone than threaten their safety.
But am I also risking my alien savior’s safety when I may not even be able to save myself?

If this planet is to be my new home, I want to make a life with Sahcor.
But will we forever be on the run from an enemy that will never stop searching for me?

Things aren’t always what they seem.
Everyone in Wattle Junction knows about shy social worker Eloise Hamilton’s dream to travel the world. But here’s the kicker: the idea of leaving the small town she’s long called home makes her nauseous. So does the fact that her career to-do list is getting bigger by the day, her brother’s ridiculously over-the-top wedding is rapidly approaching and the only guy she’s ever wanted sees her as nothing more than a friend.

He’s determined to learn how to be content with what he has and stop dreaming about what—or who—he really wants.
