Saber Stalked by Dawn Dugle

Saber Stalked by Dawn Dugle

I’ve been ghosted so many times. It won’t be long before someone starts offering tours of my haunted lady garden.

Carolina Saber is having a hell of a time closing “the deal” with her boyfriends.
Every time she’s ready for The Sex, they ghost her.
When her latest paramour disappears, it means Carolina will have to face the high school mean girls – alone – at her 30th reunion.

Hot single dad, Rand Kestrel, has been “Rebound Rand” more times than he can count. He wants someone to see past the blond hair and brawn to the brains underneath. That’s why he jumps at the chance to spend the weekend with Carolina as her “fake boyfriend” at the reunion.

Maybe he can audition for the real job.

That is – if a serial killer doesn’t get to him first.

Saber Stalked is book two in the Saber Sisters series – standalone romantic comedy books with a body count (a.k.a. murder), salty language, no cheating, and a guaranteed happy ever after.

By the way – these books are pretty freaking steamy, so it’s probably not a good idea to read them in public. Or around your mom. Or children. 
Highlighting passages for your significant other, however, is strongly encouraged.

Billionaire Undercover~Hudson (California Billionaires #1) (The Billionaire’s Obsession Book 15)

About Billionaire Undercover~Hudson (California Billionaires #1) (The Billionaire’s Obsession Book 15)

One geology intern who desperately needs to be rescued from a hostage situation. One billionaire who has the capability to save her life. Two people who are inexplicably drawn to each other even though they have almost nothing in common.

Although this story is part of The Billionaire’s Obsession series, it is the first book of the California Billionaires and can easily be enjoyed as a standalone billionaire romance.

Taylor
Just when I thought I was destined to die in a foreign country after being kidnapped while doing a geological exploration, a mysterious rescuer shows up just in time to save my life. Unfortunately, my liberator also happens to be the co-CEO of Montgomery Mining, my employer, and a billionaire with an attitude. At first glance, Hudson Montgomery seems like the quintessential gorgeous billionaire with plenty of money to burn, and no concern for anyone but himself. The arrogant billionaire I could handle, but I wasn’t quite so sure how to deal with the amazing guy I discovered once I looked past the superficial exterior. The one who stayed by my side as I recovered mentally and physically from the trauma of being a hostage.

There was so much more to Hudson than just billions of dollars, a prestigious lastname and a very handsome face. When the white-hot chemistry between the two of us finally explodes, do I trust the man I’ve come to know, or do I accept that Hudson Montgomery is the same guy the rest of the world sees?

And then another little girl goes missing, snatched from the park near her home…
