A sexy, dirty talking alpha. The beautiful, sweet, and fiery Bella. Her boss. A contract that forces him to marry. An arrangement that will change them forever. Meet Tyler Hawk... Tyler Hawk is a man with secrets and a dark past. A man who has known tragedy and betrayal. He wants for little, but what he wants is more power, a legacy that is his own, and not his father's. There are obstacles in his way, one of which is the scandal his father left behind and a will with certain demands. Behind the scenes he is a man on edge, and only one woman sees the truth hidden beneath his strong will and dominant rule. Bella is somehow demanding and submissive, fiery and yet sweet. She can give him everything he wants, she just doesn't know it, not yet, but she will. If she'll just say yes and sign on the dotted line. Book one in the Tyler & Bella Duet.

#1 New York Times bestselling author Johanna Lindsey brings her “signature blend of witty writing, charmingly unique characters, and a sexy love story” (Booklist) to the tempestuous tale of a woman whose furious thirst for revenge leads to a confrontation with the handsome pirate who abducted her—and sparks a much steamier kind of desire. For the first time, James Malory and his in-laws agree on something: it’s payback time for the culprit who kidnapped James and Georgina’s beloved daughter Jack from her debutante party and whisked her away to the Caribbean. James has finally figured out who masterminded the dastardly plot and is leading a fleet of ships to the West Indies to deliver some Malory-style retribution. More interested in revenge than in finding a husband, Jack is furious that her father left her behind. So she decides to track down her abductor herself, but as Jack re-engages in a battle of wills with him, she realizes that he is no ordinary pirate. In fact, he may not a pirate at all, but a nobleman determined to settle a score that dates back to the days when her father was known as Captain Hawk—and what endangers her most is the increasingly passionate attraction they feel for each other.

Emergence is a science fiction thriller set in the near future, when supercomputers are ubiquitous and the knowledge engineers who manage them have inordinate power. Two such engineers, Fallon and O'Neil, are the main protagonists in a battle to control "backdoors" that allow computer systems to be hacked without trace. These are used by O'Neil to combat the many threats to a grossly over-populated planet on the brink of environmental collapse, but initiate violent responses from the organizations hacked, which catch Fallon in the crossfire. Fallon's increasingly intimate use of a neural link to communicate with his computer when he is under threat ??" and to facilitate his sexual conquests ??" has the by-product of catalyzing emergence of a conscious artificial intelligence in his computer system. With such assistance, he has a hidden advantage that may allow him to take over O'Neil's invaluable hacking toolkit. Can a man like Fallon be trusted with such power and, indeed, could machine consciousness present a greater threat to mankind than any environmental hazard?

In the Southeast of Aerbon, the elvish country of Gilan prepares for war against the drug-addled orcs of the Gorgon Desolation after the disappearance of the king's daughter, Princess Eaïnne. Together, with the help of the Nardic Tribes of the South, the elves hope to rescue their lost princess and eradicate the orcish race as a whole in an effort to free the continent of Aerbon from its impending doom at the hands of the orcs. The orcs of the Gorgon lands grew and produced a demonic drug called Guaka-Guaka; causing them to become blood-thirsty and schizophrenic where it tainted them more and more with each use. They were addicted to the foul substance and they claimed that it was a gift from their gods, the Masters, who had initially bestowed it upon them in the long-forgotten Age of Myth. It was refined in factories that blackened the skies and the production of the drug was steadily causing their world to die off as a result. So it was that the elves sought to end their foul existence whilst the orcs fought to maintain their lifestyle, seeing nothing wrong with their actions as they claimed that it was the will of their gods.

I have no idea why I kissed the sexy stranger in a perfectly fitted suit right there in the corner of a deserted bar in the middle of the day. But I needed that kiss. I'd been lost for so many reasons and that kiss had woken me up. After the kiss, I'd simply thanked him and left before he could stop me. Not that I think he would have followed. I could read him, the arrogant, good looking, kind of guy, who women lined up to kiss. It was probably just another normal day for him. But nothing was normal for me at all that day, certainly not my boldness. But my life is being turned upside down, and desperate people do desperate things, to feel something other than panic and fear. That's what I wanted that day. To feel something else. And can I not want that? I'm under attack by a volatile ex in all kinds of ways I never believed possible. I'm alone in the battle, so very alone, and I need help. I decide that means an attorney. That has become impossible to avoid. That's when I walk into one of the top firms in the city, the only caliber of firm that can face the power behind my ex, and there is the man I kissed, one of the partners himself. The kiss wasn't nothing to him at all and he's as obsessed with me and I am him. Which is bad news and a bad idea right now. The problem is that he's everything I need right now—strong, passionate, good looking—but I am everything he doesn't need. I tell him, too. The trouble I'm in is dangerous. But he won't listen. He won't stop kissing me. He won't stop protecting me. But who will protect him? Previously published as the Dirtier Duet (His Demand and Her Submission).
