Nothing like sugar kisses to bring people together for the holidays…

After ditching the chaos of city life—and a cheating fiancé—I’m more than ready for a fresh start. Collier’s Creek, with its small-town charm and the warmth of my family, seems like the perfect place to regroup. Throw in a job offer as the new office manager for the local fire department, and it feels like everything is falling into place.

That is, until I meet Hayes.

The confident, cocky, and sinfully sexy firefighter is all smooth moves and effortless charm. Our connection? Instant. Our chemistry? Scorching. But here’s the problem: I’m supposed to be wrangling the firefighters and keeping the department in line, not getting distracted by the hottest man in town—who also happens to be my nephew’s best friend.

As the fire department’s Mr. December, Hayes is used to turning heads, but he’s got his sights set on me. And while I’ve sworn off mixing business with pleasure, this guy makes resisting nearly impossible. Every sweet gesture and playful flirtation chips away at my resolve, leaving me wondering if this time around, I should just give in.

Because the more time I spend with Hayes, the more I realize he’s not just fire and heat—he’s all heart. But with our undeniable attraction and my unease of our familial connection as well as our age gap, can we handle the sparks flying between us without getting burned?

There's a lot in life that comes hella easy for me. Turning heads with my stellar looks, strutting like a peacock with my smooth moves and adorable charm. Heck, need ideas for party shots or fresh recipes to make your friends jealous? I'm your guy.

It's not even a front—my epic modesty—but that doesn't mean I'm not a lying liar who lies.

What is definitely not easy is holding so much of myself back from my friends.

Or from myself.

It's a truth that sucks.

But I can't do that anymore, and it's absolutely 100 percent my best friend's fault.

Since our first college basketball practice, Bentley's been by my side. He's sweet, understanding, supersmart, and absolutely smoking hot. What's more, he's too good for me.

What I should do is keep our friendship platonic, but apparently patience isn't my strong suit. Go figure.

Cue me starting something with him that I find impossible to stop, walk away from, or admit aloud.

But loving him… heck if that doesn't become the easiest thing I've ever done. I just need to find a way to be worthy of his love and for him to stay patient as I pull my head out of my ass and give him the world he deserves.

When a young teacher connects with the principal of his school, work and ex issues, the possibility of happiness, and a chocolate Labrador called Penny means they have a lot to think over.

Newly appointed teacher, Jasper Taylor, cant believe his luck. After a year, hes found a job with the possibility of a permanent contract, which finally allows him to put his teaching degree to good use. After meeting the silver-haired principal of the school, Jasper discovers his new position offers an additional temptation. He knows he should retreat, but who said avoiding attraction was easy, especially when the man hes crushing on seems too good to be true?

Well-respected and focused on his career, Austin Harrison is at the top of his game. Hes turned a struggling school around, has finally put up boundaries with his demanding ex, and may just have secured full custody of his chocolate Lab, Penny. The appointment of the new English teacher, Jasper, threatens to unsettle the stability hes been working toward. Austins attraction is immediate, heady, and oh so complicated. But does complicated mean he has to walk away?

Join Jasper and Austin in Becca Seymour's stand-alone low-angst, feel-good M/M romance series, True-Blue Book 4. In the small town of Kirkby, there are busybodies, dogs who cause chaos, families who have the “best” of timing, and opportunities for good men to find their perfect match.

In the covert world of espionage, trust is a precious commodity with deadly consequences. Leading the Infiltration Tactical Unit, I've always relied on my instincts, careful planning, and my team. Now, hunted by the very agency I once served, I'm reluctantly forging an alliance with Ethan Wilder, a bear shifter whose gruff exterior belies a sharp intellect and unwavering loyalty.

No matter where I turn, Wilder is there—infuriatingly competent, irresistibly attractive. Despite my reservations, I can't ignore the undeniable connection between us. Nor the fact that we're trapped in a cabin with just one bed. With the SICB tightening its grip, Ethan becomes not just an asset, but integral to helping me keep everything from falling apart; he's also possibly our only hope of bringing down Hornell, our elusive nemesis.

As our mission escalates, Ethan's steadfast support stops me from imploding as the secrets of my past start to unravel, threatening everything Ive fought to protect. Amidst looming danger, with my team beside me and Ethan at my back, I must confront the shadows before they consume us all.
