A sexy new brother's best friend romance from New York Times bestselling author Kendall Ryan. There are a few things you should know about my brother’s roommate. Wolfie Cox is . . . complicated. And incredibly sexy. Unfortunately, he has an impressive stick lodged so far up his ass, he’s about as emotionally available as a chinchilla. Actually, that might be an insult to the chinchilla community. So, naturally, I want to ride him like a bicycle. He thinks I hate him. Mostly because I’ve led him to believe this. It’s easier than admitting the truth. And while Wolfie is about as soft and cuddly as a fork, I’m the opposite. A good girl. Reliable. Conscientious. Oh, and completely panicked about an upcoming work conference. Wolfie’s usually allergic to altruism, so when my brother convinces him to help me out by escorting me to said conference where everyone else will have a plus-one . . . I say thanks, but no thanks. Surprisingly, Wolfie is unflinching about this. And that’s the story about how I got stuck in a hotel room with my brother’s hot (grouchy) roommate. Thank you for coming to my TED talk. In all seriousness, this isn’t a game to me, and hormones aside, I need to impress my boss this week so the promotion I’ve worked hard for doesn’t get handed to his worthless nephew. But with Wolfie and me sharing a hotel bed, things get confusing quickly. This is book two in the Frisky Business series, but each book can be read as a complete standalone.

Her brother met his soul mate, her best friend is engaged, and to top it all off, Tande has the town's biggest wedding to plan for. All she can focus on is the job she has to do to get Brent & DJ across the marital finish line. But someone does not want this wedding to take place. They've been getting veiled threats for weeks, but when a creepy gift shows up and shakes up everyone's nerves, Tande takes matters into her own hands. She's going to get the police to take her seriously if she has to take hostages to do it. Marcus Edison has spent his whole adult life getting over Tande. She broke his heart, walked away from Somewhere, and put him in her rear-view. And for the brief moments he's allowed himself to hope she might come back, all she wants is a quick fling. But he's not interested in flings anymore. And he's over Tande. Completely. At least, that's what he's told his family, friends, and coworkers. Not that they believe him. All it takes is one look at her, ready to mow down the whole Sheriff's Department, for him to get crazy on whoever is threatening her. He'll do what he can to protect her, if she'll even let him, but when some of the threats start getting personal, he doesn't care if they're friends, benefits, or frenemies. He's sure he can let her walk away again, as long as she is alive... From the Somewhere, TX Volume II boxed set, TEXAS STRAIGHT UP.
