Sinta is coming to town - but this time he’s the one receiving a gift.

An unexpected inheritance comes at the perfect time for Holly. Her on-again, off-again relationship is off for good, her Christmas plans have been canceled, and her parents have decided to spend the holiday traveling. But the remote mountain cabin she inherited is not the idyllic paradise she remembers from her childhood. There’s no power, no cell service, and she's quite sure someone - or something - is watching her from the woods…

Sinta’s observation trip to this primitive planet has gone disastrously wrong. His ship's systems have gone haywire, the freezing temperatures have thrown his body into his beast-like survival mode, and he's lost touch with his world. Then the enchanting human female he spies from the woods threatens to throw his beast into a mating frenzy…

When Sinta and Holly are forced to work together to survive they discover an unexpected connection – but is there any future for them once the holidays are over?

He’s wealthy, he’s mean… and he’s about to meet his match!

Life on the alien planet of Londria is difficult for humans, but Bobbi is determined to make the holiday season a special time for her fragile little brother, Tim. Desperate for funds, she’s even willing to take a job working for the coldest, meanest, most hard-hearted alien in the entire city.

Skruj is only interested in accumulating more wealth. He has absolutely no taste for social events—until they stand between him and a new source of income. Since his attendance requires a companion, he reluctantly decides to hire one. Unfortunately, the only female willing to agree to his meager terms is a pathetic—but unexpectedly alluring—human.

Three events. Three nights. How hard could it be?

As the snow begins to fall, neither one of them is prepared for an unexpected attraction and a dose of holiday magic!

Working 9-to-5 has never been this wild!

Desperate for a fresh start, Julie jumps at a chance to work for the boss of TalkToMe, the country’s fastest growing social network. The job's location, the enigmatic Monster Island, only adds to its appeal - she won’t be tempted to make another foolish mistake.

She didn’t expect her new boss to be the hottest, most tantalizing man she’s ever met - even if he does growl his orders and has an oddly arousing habit of sniffing her.

Derek might be a werewolf residing in the heart of Monster Island, but he sees himself as a businessman rather than a monster. Until his new assistant arrives, awakening all of his most primitive instincts.

He knows she’s human. He knows she’ll never stay. But the need to claim her is growing stronger every day…

Can Julie resist the primal allure of her werewolf boss, or can a beauty really love a beast?

“Stay out of the swamp.”

Every child in Cypress Landing has been warned about the terrifying monster lurking in the inky tangle of cypress and willow on the edge of town. But sometimes desperation leaves no other choice…

When Rorie sees her vicious stepfather commit a horrifying crime, her only hope of escape lies through the forbidden swamp. Hurt and exhausted by her headlong flight, she is terrified when she sees a huge, mysterious figure lurking behind the wraith-like tendrils of Spanish moss.

Yet despite his intimidating appearance, something in his eyes gives her the courage to beg for help. And even though he carries her deeper into the swamp, she feels unexpectedly safe in his massive arms.

Marsh has been alone for as long as he can remember. But the swamp is his home, and he has long since made peace with his loneliness. Until a beautiful, injured woman pleads for sanctuary…

As he nurses her back to health, he is enchanted by her innocent smiles and tentative touches. She brings a joy to his existence that he has never known. He will do anything for her - anything except let her go.
