  • First Chapter: Heartland
    Narrated by Lee Samuels and Erin Mallon

    An emotional friends to lovers romance full of risky secrets and late-night lessons in seduction.
    Dylan is my best friend, and the only person in my life who understands me. He doesn’t mind my social awkwardness or my weird history. The only glitch? He doesn’t know that I’ve been hopelessly, desperately in love with him since the first day we picked apples together in his family’s orchard.
    But I know better than to confess.
    Now that I’ve joined him at college, I’m seeing a new side of him. This Dylan drinks and has a lot of sex. None of it with me.
    Until the moment I foolishly ask him to tutor me in more than algebra…and he actually says yes.
    One crazy night sets our friendship on fire. But now my heart lies in ashes, and nothing will ever be the same again.

    Heartland is a standalone college romance set in the True North world. Expect: a young, broody farmer, a giant crush, tasty caramels, cute goats and late night confessions.

  • First Chapter: Moonlighter
    Narrated by Jason Clarke & Lucy Rivers

    Only in my family could a professional hockey player earning seven million dollars a year be considered a slacker.

    I’m at the height of my athletic career. Yet my arrogant brother is always trying to recruit me into the family business: a global security company so secretive that I don’t even know its name. 

    Pass, thanks. I don’t need a summer job. 

    But the jerk ambushes me with a damsel in distress. That damsel is Alex, the competitive, sassy girl I knew when we were kids. Now she’s a drop-dead gorgeous woman in deep trouble.

    So guess who’s on a flight to Hawaii?

    It’s going to be a long week in paradise. My job is keeping Alex safe, while her job is torturing me with her tiny bikinis. Or maybe we’re torturing each other. It’s all snark and flirting until the threat against Alex gets serious. And this jock must become her major league protector. 

    Moonlighter is a stand-alone novel. No cliffhangers, no prior experience necessary. Contains: hackers, hockey players, and a hotel room with only one bed.

  • First Chapter: Superfan by Sarina Bowen

    Sometimes lady luck shakes your hand, and sometimes she smacks your face. Sometimes she does both on the same day.

    Three years ago I met the most amazing woman. We were both down on our luck. Then I got that call—the one that tells you to get your buns on a plane to go meet your destiny.

    But the girl was left behind. I didn’t have her phone number, and she didn’t know my real name.

    While I became a professional hockey player, she became a superstar, with platinum records and legions of fans. And a slick, music producer boyfriend who treated her badly.

    But fate wasn’t done with us yet. When Delilah turns up at a hockey game, I can’t resist making contact. The internet swoons when I ask her out on a date.

    She might not remember me. But her jerkface ex does. He’ll do anything to keep us apart. 

    Good thing athletes never give up. This time I’m playing for keeps.

  • First Chapter: Overnight Sensation
    Narrated by Jason Clarke & Savannah Peachwood

    Everyone knows the girl is off limits. But it's so good to be bad.

    There’s this girl... 

    Heidi and I have been trading hungry looks all year, and everything she does makes me smile. But I don't do girlfriends, and I certainly can't get involved with the league commissioner's daughter. I need shots on goal, not a hookup and a widely misunderstood paparazzi photo.

    Can I resist her, though? The way she teases me should be a game penalty for interference with my libido. 

    There’s this guy…

    Jason wants me, but he won’t admit it. That man looks at me the way a hockey player eyes the lunch buffet after practice—and I love it. 

    But when victory is finally within my grasp, I blow it and humiliate myself. Even then I can’t even avoid him—as the team intern, I’m in constant view of his hard body and cocky smile. 

    I need another chance. Jason Castro is about to learn the true meaning of an overnight sensation.

  • First Chapter: The Accidentals
    Narrated by Kate Rudd

    Never ask a question unless you’re sure you want the truth.

    I’ve been listening to my father sing for my whole life. I carry him in my pocket on my mp3 player. It’s just that we’ve never met face to face.

    My mother would never tell me how I came to be, or why my rock star father and I have never met. I thought it was her only secret. I was wrong.

    When she dies, he finally appears. Suddenly I have a first class ticket into my father’s exclusive world. A world I don’t want any part of – not at this cost. 

    Only three things keep me going: my a cappella singing group, a swoony blue-eyed boy named Jake, and the burning questions in my soul.

    There’s a secret shame that comes from being an unwanted child. It drags me down, and puts distance between me and the boy I love. 

    My father is the only one alive who knows my history. I need the truth, even if it scares me.
