Five steamy contemporary romances in one convenient set.
A Passion for Paulina- Prequel

Famous for her conversational skills, she's a mother figure, friend, and confidante to many of the town's residents. Yet few know how she came to occupy her very special role. She may be well into her sixties, but she's known a love as deep as anyone could imagine. Take a trip back to Christmas 1980, and find out about the life Paulina once lived. As they say, everybody was young once, and Paulina is no exception.
Seducing Book 1
The heat between Sheridan "Sheri" Cole and Nicholas "Nick" Dunn is palpable, undeniable, and inescapable. Before Sheri can even get a sip of her coffee, she's on her way home with Nick. But is this just a sexy holiday fling? Or is Nick using his sexual prowess to convince Sheri to enter a business deal with him? Or could he be after her most guarded possession of all...her heart?
Vying for Book 2
Vivian Dunn is floored by Wesley Oaks' declarations of love. What she thought was going to be a quiet weekend with her best friend becomes much more complex. She looks at Wesley with new eyes, and feels a spark of desire burning inside her. Her body says "Yes", but her mind has so many doubts. The stakes are high- both their hearts and a cherished friendship are on the line. Can this be real, or will it only lead to loss and heartache?
Adoring Book 3

Their new relationship is as stormy as the weather during their first lovemaking session. With the social event of the year approaching, can they find a way to settle their differences, or will their chance at bliss in each other's arms be lost forever?

About the author
Kianna Alexander
111 books570 followersI've always loved the written word. For as long as I can remember, I read as much as I could, as often as I could. Cereal boxes, newspapers, product packaging. Ebony, Essence, and Jet Magazine. Billboards. I loved it all. I read the entire Fear Street series, as well as the Sweet Valley Books, from Twins and Friends through Sweet Valley High. Each week I'd bring 15 or 20 books home from the library, and read them all before the due date.
Now, my mother owned a pristine, barely touched collection of Harlequin romance novels, and I was not to touch them under any circumstances. Well, as a teenager, you know what that meant. I read some of them, and got my first introduction to romance.
When I was sixteen, I picked up my stepmother's copy of Night Song, by Beverly Jenkins. The cover showed an obviously historical image of a black couple, against a beautiful backdrop, locked in a passionate embrace. With my love of history, I had to crack this book. What I read inside literally blew my mind. I was exposed to a wonderful, touching love story involving people who looked like me! What a thrill. To this day Night Song remains my favorite book, and I credit it with planting the seed of desire to write romance. I didn't get serious until many years later, but that's where it all began.

Love and Life in Climax Creek Volume One: The Dunns [Welcome to Climax Creek, North Carolina Established 1858 "Built on Tradition, Moving Toward the Future" Climax Creek is a small, quaint town situated between Greensboro and Sanford in North Carolina. Bordered by I-85 and three North Carolina state highways, it's occupied by less than sixteen hundred people. Climax Creek is the kind of town where you won't find a Starbucks, but you can get a great cup of coffee from Paulina down at Cool Beans. Watch out for Paulina- she'll talk your ear off if you let her. Down at Phipps Pharmacy, Quinn Phipps has got a cure for whatever might be ailing you. Say the wrong thing to your significant other? Minnie Hughes has got an "apology special" running down at her flower shop- she'll fix you up. Feel the need for some spiritual guidance? Climax Creek has four churches- take you pick. If you're looking for something fancy and pretentious, this isn't the place. But if you're looking for a little Southern comfort, the kind that you can't get out of a bottle, then stop on by.

Sweet
If you enjoy short stories that intertwine then this is the book for you. Love and life in Climax Creek is so nice, slow paced but with a lot of love. The story lines are cute and the sex scenes are hot.

Life in Climax
I really enjoyed this series. I started with Ava, then had to go back and start from the beginning. I was not disappointed with any of them.
