Simone: Adventures in Dating
NEW YORK TIMES and USA TODAY Bestselling Author
18+ for heat factor and erotic situations. SIMONE (The Christmas Hunk) can be read as a stand-alone novel or as part of the bestselling series, Simone: Adventures in Dating.
Simone Stevens has never been lucky in love, but that doesn't stop her from trying. When she meets a sexy mall Santa who sweeps her off her stilettos, she vows to give herself--and him--a Christmas Eve to remember. After a passionate night in front of the fireplace, it soon becomes apparent that this Christmas-obsessed hunk is hiding something. When he leaves abruptly, Simone is left wondering whether their evening together was nothing more than a one-night encounter. She begins to doubt that she'll ever find true love...until she experiences the magic of the season and realizes that she really does believe after all.
READ THE REST OF THE SERIES:
SERIES DESCRIPTION: All my life, I've been a man-magnet. Everywhere I go, guys drop at my feet. After all, I have a perfect body, insatiable sex drive, and a razor wit. I'm also modest (can't you tell?). Trouble is, I've never been lucky in love. I only attract guys who forget their wallets and show up to dates wearing #@%#-stained clothes. With my best friend's wedding around the corner, I finally decide enough is enough. I'm not only going to find the perfect date to her wedding, but I'm going to find Mr. Right: a gorgeous man with a great sense of humor, a chiseled bod, talent in bed, and a big...(ahem) wallet. Is that too much to ask? If all goes right, my quest will lead me into the arms of my perfect match...or will it?
Book 1 (The Billionaire): Simone meets a mysterious and charming billionaire who sweeps her off her feet. He might just be her perfect date...and more. But does he have a secret side?
Book 2 (The Billionaire Revealed): Simone discovers the billionaire's secret, and it could be a deal breaker. Luckily, there's a sexy, down-to-earth cowboy waiting in the wings. But will his big, er...hat be enough to keep her interested?
Book 3 (The Cowboy): The sexy, truck-obsessed cowboy knows how to dance and woo the ladies, especially Simone. Unfortunately, he's also hiding his true self. Will Simone discover who he really is before she gives her heart? Or does their romance go up in flames?
Book 4 (The Cop): Just when Simone least expects it, she meets a handsome, virile cop who has eyes only for her. He's attentive, devoted, and always has his big gun cocked and ready. He rocks her world while making her his own...but does his obsession go too far?
Book 5 (The Attorney): Simone has finally found the perfect man to take to her best friend's wedding: an attorney who makes her feel so good it should be against the law. But when lovers from both their pasts show up, will that threaten what they've begun to build?
