Once and Again by Megyn Ward
Riggs Wheeler was my first everything.
My first crush.
My first kiss.
My first heartbreak.
He was my older brother, Beck’s best friend, and I used to follow them constantly—begging to be included.
Go home, Tagalong. You’re too little to keep up.
That’s what Beck always called me.
Tagalong.
Not Riggs though—he always called me Gem.
I used to think it meant something. Grew up believing that someday he’d open his eyes and see me. Someday, he’d realize that what he’s been looking for has been right in front of him all along. When he joined the military, I panicked because someday wasn’t coming soon enough and if I wanted him to see me before he left, I’d have to make him look at me.
I’d have to tell him how I felt.
What I wanted before it was too late.
When I kissed him that night, he kissed me back.
I thought that meant something too.
I was wrong.
Now Beck lives in LA—a big-time movie star and I’m still little Tagalong. Still trying to keep up. Still looking for a place to belong. Someone to call home.
When Riggs comes back to Barrett it becomes my job to take care of him.
A wounded warrior, he’s so bitter and broken I barely recognize him.
But he still calls me Gem.
Still looks at me like I’m something worth seeing.
Still kisses me like he means it, and maybe, just maybe… that’s enough to heal us both.

Marriage of Sin by Kristen Luciani
My arranged husband is younger, relentless, and absolutely certain I belong to him. The worst part? He might be right.
ADRIANA
At forty, I’ve built my own empire. I answer to no one. I don’t do love, vulnerability, or men who think they can handle me.
Then my father takes a bullet and suddenly I’m running his world—the one I spent my whole life escaping. The price of survival? An arranged marriage to Lochlan Molloy, the son of a rival crime boss.
He’s twelve years younger. Cocky. Infuriating. Looks at me like I’m the only woman in any room.
I’ve spent my whole life keeping people out. Keeping myself cold. Protected.
He makes me want things I swore I’d never want. And I hate him for it.
I hate myself more for not being able to stop.
LOCHLAN
She thinks she’s made of ice. She’s wrong.
I see the fire underneath. The way she looks at me when she thinks I’m not watching. The way she melts when I touch her, even as she’s pushing me away.
I’ll break down every wall. I’ll burn the world for her. I’ll make her mine in every way that matters.
But I’m keeping a secret that could shatter everything.
And when she finds out I’ve been lying to her from the start?
Let her hate me. I’ll spend the rest of my life earning her back.
