The Italian’s Final Redemption - Jackie Ashenden

His pursuit for justice was clear... until he met her!

Vincenzo de Santi has dedicated his whole life to redeeming his family’s crimes. So when Lucy Armstrong offers evidence about her nefarious father in exchange for her freedom, he will show no mercy. No matter how innocent she seems...

Lucy must escape her father’s prison, even if that means bargaining with another powerful man. Yet for all Vincenzo proclaims to be cold-hearted, his touch is red-hot. For once, Lucy isn’t afraid. However, before Vincenzo can set her free, first she must free him...

The Price Of A Dangerous Passion - Jane Porter

When business and pleasure collide, the consequences are life-changing...

Powerful tycoon Brando Ricci cannot imagine raising his child anywhere but in Tuscany, surrounded by family. So when PR executive Charlotte Parks shows up at his door and tells him she’s pregnant, he has the only solution. They must marry, pronto.

Charlotte already broke her biggest rule by giving into temptation with Brando. He’s a former client, and impossibly skilled in bed! But a marriage of duty? No, thank you. Unless Brando can break his own number one rule: keeping his heart off limits.

The Playboy Prince Of Scandal - Susan Stephens

His innocent enemy... could be his ultimate undoing!

Prince Cesar will never forgive Sofia Acosta for the article branding him a playboy! But to avoid further scandal, he has no choice but to invite her to his lavish banquet in Rome — where he’s confronted by her unexpected apology and the very obvious electricity!

Sofia was blackmailed into writing that article. She’ll risk her hard-fought career to make it right. But surrendering to undeniable temptation wasn’t part of the plan! Because that means putting her trust in the man behind the outrageous reputation...

About the Author

Jackie writes dark, emotional stories with alpha heroes who've just got the world to their liking only to have it blown wide apart by their kick-ass heroines. She lives in Auckland, New Zealand with her husband and two kids. When she's not torturing alpha males and their gutsy heroines, she can be found drinking chocolate martinis, reading anything she can lay her hands on, wasting time on social media, or being forced to go mountain biking with her husband.
