Louise Bentley is a feisty, wild, 'let's-go-to-Capri-for-the-weekend-yeah?' kind of girl. She spends her days working at a party-planning company. Oh, and she never wants kids. Ever.

Ben Langford is a studious, quiet, 'I'm-busy-reading' sort of man. He spends most of his days practicing law and avoiding Louise Bentley. Oh, and he wants a truckload of kids one day. Just not yet.

But when Louise's sister and Ben's brother die in a car wreck, they name the pair of them as legal guardians of their two children. Suddenly, Louise and Ben are living in the same house, up to their ears in nappies and lingering resentment. With so much tension brewing between them, how long can they keep it bottled up?

The Cunning by CourtneyLHansen

Her days are short and simple, she works her shifts at the 24-hour convenience store and goes home to feed her neighbours cat. It's peaceful, quiet. No one is any the wiser about who she is and what she's capable of. Because if they were, Jase would never have accepted the money to take her. He wouldn't have instructed his boys to follow her home and stake out her house. They wouldn't have tied her wrists and told her to accept her fate. Because if they knew who she was, they would know it meant sealing theirs. When the request for Madison was made, Jase assumed it would be like taking candy from a baby. Instead, he learned the hard way that holding her captive was the worst mistake he could make. Madison has fewer tears to cry than most and she doesn't suffer fools gladly, so when the panic stops, the game begins. Being raised by a morally grey man has taught her a thing or two about morally grey men. Jase has a secret and he wants to keep it that way- he let Madison go once before. And she won't let him forget it.

They decide it'd be difficult to hide her body so what's the next best thing? kidnapping. Emma's whisked away from her simpleton life into one of what seems like life in a can. She's never felt more trapped yet somehow free. Carter Tyler is a delinquent.

Instead, he somehow ends up home with a seemingly crazy girl and missing his first kiss.
