Jack is an FBI agent, a playboy, a man who is happy tasting the flavor of the month and not staying for breakfast. He’s perfectly content with his life and has no interest in finding his happily ever after. So when he is attracted to Kennedy at his partner’s wedding, he naturally takes the opportunity to seduce her. Now it’s time to focus on the next good-looking woman who comes along, right? Ah, you don’t always get what you expect. Kennedy was burned by her ex-husband—badly. She told everyone he cheated on her, because the truth—that he stole all of her money before disappearing out of her life—is far more embarrassing. For the last three years she’s struggled to pay off her debt, ignoring her libido and refusing to consider allowing another man to get close. A one-night stand with Jack is the perfect way to break her sexual fast—until she discovers that he’s pouring her morning coffee and frying bacon. While Jack goes undercover at a male strip club, the two begin an affair that distracts him from his job and puts their hearts—and Kennedy’s life—in danger. Now there’s only one way Jack can stop this killer, and it involves making that declaration they both swore they didn’t want. Sensuality Level: Sensual

'Out-of-this-world amazing... Let me tell you, this author has the skill set of a flippin' pro... It is everything and beyond...Spectacular.' Reviews from the Heart, 5 stars My head is pounding. Yawning, I rub my hands over my face, and I'm surprised by the shiny gold band on my left ring finger. What the... I'm Mac. But you already know that, right? You probably even recognize the sound of my voice... Because I'm the radio host that wakes most of Sacramento up every morning. The sultry voice that blares out of your speakers when you're sipping your first coffee of the day, or driving to work, stuck in traffic. I'm the DJ that most of the women in Sacramento lust after. Everyone knows me, knows my reputation: ladies' man, bad boy, eternally single commitment-phobe. I have my own reasons for needing to stay single, my own demons to battle with. Scars that don't show, but that stop me from getting close to anyone. Except, after one hell of a drunken accident, I've woken up married. To a gorgeous green-eyed girl, Kelley, I only met yesterday in a coffee shop. A killer hangover later, it turns out that this playboy is off the market. But there are three problems: 1) I'm married to a girl I met less than twenty-four hours ago. 2) No woman has ever been able to change my ways - who says that Kelley's going to be any different? 3) Kelley must be the one lady in this city who doesn't know who I am - and that means she doesn't know about my past, about the issues that haunt me. So I might be taken, but the question is... for how long? This is a full-length, standalone romance with some hot-under-the-collar action, no cheating and a guaranteed HEA. For fans of R.S. Grey, Whitney G. and Vi Keeland, Accidental Groom features a sexy AF alpha and a steamy will-they-wont-they love story that will have you completely hooked.
