Book Description
WAY OUT WEST LONE-STAR LONER? Nathan Jones was the richest rancher around—but he was the outcast of Bitter Creek, Texas. Once his hometown's Prince Charming, his love for the wrong woman had cost another man his life. Now a fallen hero, Nate swore no one would ever break through the impenetrable fortress he'd built around his heart. But Nate had never counted on the sweet beauty of Hannah McBride. What was it about his injured brother's nurse that had Nate hungering for her healing touch? Even though her innocent heart was as transparent as a glass slipper, hadn't Nate learned there was no such thing as happily ever after? Because there's nothing like a cowboy.

Book Description
Money can buy anything. And anyone. As the head of the Constantine family, I'm used to people bowing to my will. Cruel, rigid, unyielding--I'm all those things. When I discover the one woman who doesn't wither under my gaze, but instead smiles right back at me, I'm intrigued. Ash Elliott needs cash, and I make her trade in crudeness and degradation for it. I crave her tears, her moans. I pay for each one. And every time, she comes back for more. When she challenges me with an offer of her own, I have to decide if I'm willing to give her far more than cold hard cash. But love can have deadly consequences when it comes from a Constantine. At the stroke of midnight, that choice may be lost for both of us.

Book Description
In El's fantasies, she pilots a fighter jet for the intergalactic fleet. In reality, she's a mechanic whose social grid ranking guarantees she'll never advance beyond the lowest grunt work, and a slave in all but name to her cruel and self-centered stepmother and stepsisters. The most she can hope for is a few stolen moments of happiness practicing on her sisters' flight simulators, or talking to the mysterious stranger she met on an illicit night of stargazing. When the queen announces a competition to find new pilots for the fleet, El knows this is her chance to escape. But her stepmother will never let her compete—and then she learns that her new friend, the one person she thought she could trust, was hiding a secret that changes everything between them. It's a good thing she has a lot more friends than she thinks she does.Exciting, fast-paced, and hopeful, this science fiction retelling of Cinderella is the first in the Rove City series.
