About this book

#1 F*cker Next Door: Cassie Love cannot stand Slade Coal. He has absolutely no respect for personal boundaries-he's also her next-door neighbor and her colleague, the smoking hot, oh-so-popular deputy. All the women in town love him, but not her. Nope. Slade has his eye on his sexy, curvy neighbor. She's so prim and proper that he just wants to dirty her up a little. He'll have to settle for teasing her, though, because Slade doesn't do relationships, or love. When Slade and Cassie have a do-over, their attitudes change, and they find they actually have a lot in common, so their friendship is born. Without realizing it, Slade helps to heal Cassie's broken heart, and in doing so, awakens the woman she has kept buried deep. But what happens when their friendship changes again and they include a little benefit into the mix? Slade loves to get dirty, and Cassie wants to experience something hot. But to go from friends-with-benefits to down the aisle-is that even possible? #2 Princess Next Door: Wynter Griffin has finally found her independence after years of being controlled by her parents. The only problem with her newfound peace? Her partying, rock music listening neighbor. She's at the end of her patience, and demands that he packs up the noise, or she's calling the police. Zane Webster likes his neighbor. Her blonde hair, blue eyes, and sweetness remind him of a princess. All she has to do was ask, and he's more than willing to give her what she wants. Guilt eats away at Wynter, and it's not long before she makes friends with the bad boy. After getting drunk one night, she lets it slip that she's a virgin, and in desperate need of shedding that title. Zane agrees to help, providing they do it at his pace. With Zane, she can finally live her life to the fullest. He even teaches her how to fall in love. But what will happen when her parents demand she grow up, and do as she's told? What will Wynter choose? Can two people so different find happiness together?#3 Two Hotties Next DoorFor three months, Ace has been completely obsessed with the next-door neighbor. His housemate and BFF, Brett, can't get enough of watching her either. She's a mystery they want to solve.Meredith is an artist in a creative funk. For most of her life she has never conformed, never done what people expect, living her life her way. Her two sexy neighbors are the sweetest guys she's ever met, and they do what months of relaxation have failed to do. Out of the blue, Brett and Ace become her inspiration, giving back her creativity.Ace and Brett both want her, but being best friends, they have no intention of fighting over her. They'll take her, together.Belonging to Brett and Ace is new for Meredith, but what starts out as some fun soon changes as they each realize what they want more than anything else in the world. But will they have the courage to admit it, or will fear hold them back? Is their threesome doomed from the start, or has the power of the two houses struck again?
