‘Tis the season for naughty, forbidden secrets, seductions, and happily ever afters. Fall in love this holiday season. Three brand new sizzling hot age gap romances, specially written to keep you warm this holiday season. (Yes, we are talking about the heat between the sheets!) Book 1: Christmas with My Best Friend’s Dad After two years in Paris studying music, Grace is back in Malibu, CA for Christmas, but she never forgot the last holiday she spent in California having an almost-one-night-stand with her best friend’s father, Jasper Hayes, enigmatic billionaire. Grace was ready to give Jasper her everything, until circumstance ripped it all to shreds. Now, back and hoping to move forward, Grace finds herself faced with a morally ambiguous proposal from none other than Jasper himself. For $25,000, Grace will pose as the perfect girlfriend for his company’s annual Christmas gala in NYC. It will only be one three-day weekend of elegant pirates, dinners, and Christmas finery, but nothing is ever so simple. With everything falling apart, only a Christmas miracle can repair the wounded relationships. Book 2: Knocked Up on Christmas Eve Hope didn’t know what to think when she booked herself into a hotel on December 23rd. Her best friend was in love with her father. Her father had paid her best friend to pose as his trophy girlfriend. Feeling confused and betrayed, Hope walked herself into the hotel bar and found herself waking up in a room that wasn’t hers. Instead, it belonged to Felix Jacobson, notorious billionaire executive and playboy (and a family friend). Two Years Later, it’s their daughter, Clara’s, first real Christmas, but Hope doesn’t know how to give Clara the one gift she deserves: her father. Book 3: Her Secret Santa They told Inez she shouldn’t major in creative writing. They told her not to move to Los Angeles to try her hand at screenwriting, but when did Inez ever listen? How could she do anything but follow her heart right into the house of famous actor, Cole Crawford? She’s trying not to drown in her student debt, and the gig Cole offers also means living in his Spanish-style mansion for free. With his sister, Natalie, recently divorced, Inez finds herself as the young nanny of Natalie’s twins, Rose and Asher. It’s time for the family to deck their mansion’s halls, but nothing about the season feels cheerful. Cole finds himself at a crossroads in his career, and the new buxom nanny he hired for his sister is only serving as a distraction. Inez is bright, beautiful, and far too appealing when she sleeps in his bed (unbeknownst to everyone else in the house). Of course, there’s no sneaking past the positive pregnancy test. If you are craving for a little naughty with your nice this Christmas, grab this unputdownable box set of three standalone holiday romances, each one naughtier than the previous one and promising your usual Sofie fix – a touch of forbidden with the perfect happily ever after.

"There. Now if you even think about telling my dad about the kitten, I'll tell on you first. I bet he'll be a lot more upset that you kissed his daughter than about some tiny kitty." Dad and I have been on our own for years. We've faced everything head on and have traveled aimlessly in search of anywhere that felt like home. I liked this abnormal routine of ours. Until one day, Dad announces that a woman he's been seeing long distance is now his wife. Not only is she moving in with us, but she's bringing her son along. Derek, my new stepbrother, is...hot. He is temptation I don't need right now. But the struggle to play house with my new family is tested after one blackmail kiss. The first night in my new house--complete with brand new stepdad and stepsister--had me restless. I wandered the woods behind the new place and that's when everything derailed. Lara pops out of the shadows with a secret kitten. Terrified that I'll snitch to her dad, she does something I never saw coming. Trouble is, that teasing blackmail kiss quickly turns into more. Then I get a traveling job offer I can't refuse. Can I convince this blackmailing beauty to risk it all and join me? Lara's Blackmail Kiss is part of Max Watson's Bubble Bath Romance collection.

He’s unknowingly exploited by his family, which pushes him into a fame he never wanted, and all the while they’re keeping secrets from him. Devastated by a sudden death, his world is thrown into turmoil, kicking off an unstoppable downward spiral, only worsened by his now crippling anthropophobia.

As he searches desperately for Mona, his only remaining friend, he becomes the prime suspect in a missing persons investigation. Mona’s mother forced her to work the streets from a young age. Now years later, Mona fights to free as many lives as she can from the fate she suffered as a child. But a guilt that’s quietly eating away at her is brought to light when Stefan, the alluring boy from her past, comes back. When a dangerous hooded figure has his sights set on destroying all her efforts, Desdamona must rely on the one person she’s afraid to get close to or watch as everything she’s built is set aflame.

An Englishwoman marries a Sicilian-American soldier during World War II and then vanishes from his life in this story of star-crossed love and deadly vendettas They meet and fall in love in Palermo during World War II. She’s an English nurse, the daughter of a Sussex country doctor. He’s a wounded Sicilian-American soldier. When they marry, Angela Drummond is pregnant, but Steven Falconi will not be with her the day their son is born. Believing Angela to be the tragic victim of a German bomb, Steven returns to New York to take his place as heir apparent of his Mafia family.

The pampered, wildly jealous daughter of a powerful don, Clara will let nothing stand in the way of her uncontrollable passion for her husband. Then one day, Steven sees a ghost. Reminiscent of the works of Mario Puzo, The Scarlet Thread journeys across three continents and two decades to tell a story about the terrible price of power and the incalculable cost of love.
