“Anything can be bought, Savannah, and everything has a price.” “Only in your universe, Tobias.” Tobias Stone, a troubled billionaire, lives an empty life devoid of love. Haunted by demons from his past, he uses his wealth to insulate him from the real world. Savannah Page, a divorced and debt-ridden single mom, has fled an abusive marriage and arrives in New York with her young son, eager to make a new start. He’s filthy rich, she’s dirt poor. He pays for sex, she’s a loving single mom. Savannah’s money worries are solved when she gets an office job working for Tobias. But at what price? This is an opposites attract, slow burn, steamy billionaire romance, featuring a ruthless businessman with a heart of stone and the struggling single mom who isn’t looking for love.
They're meant for one another. It's almost too good to be true. He begins to thaw. She begins to trust. A misunderstanding between between Savannah and Tobias causes things to turn sour. Usually cool and controlled, Tobias loses his composure around Savannah and jumps to mile-high conclusions which force things to take a turn for the worse. But Tobias Stone isn’t used to failing, and he always gets what he wants. And what he wants is Savannah Page. Winning her back is one thing, keeping her is another. If these two damaged lovers escape their demons, they can find a future together. Unless the past catches up with them.

Three dragons. One woman. A reverse harem fantasy that will leave you breathless and begging for more... Dareena Sellis is a nobody. The orphaned daughter of a no-name farmer, she toils away as a serving girl at Hallowdale Inn, her only marriage prospects either shipping off to war, or pawing at her skirts with their grubby, gnarled hands. But fate takes a strange turn the day a dragon huntress comes to town. Suddenly, Dareena is swept off to Dragon's Keep, trading in her raggedy dresses for silken gowns, her closet-sized room for feather pillows and spacious gardens, and her miserable suitor for three very handsome, veryvirile dragon princes. For Dareena is not a nobody. She is the Dragon's Gift--the one woman chosen by the gods every century to bear children for the future king of Dragonfell. Despite her pre-ordained path, Dareena's fate is far from certain. The crown has not given birth to more than one son in nearly a thousand years, and the line of succession is far from clear. Neither of the princes are willing to cede Dareena to the other, and yet she must choose. For the enemy is knocking on Dragonfell's door, and Dareena's decision could either mean the kingdom's salvation... ...or annihilation.
