Célibataire

Souffrant du rejet douloureux d'un homme qu'il pensait aimer, Asher se retrouve avec un bébé dans les bras.

Ash veut fonder une famille et est déterminé à poursuivre la maternité de substitution qu’il avait entamée avec son ex. Il ramène bébé Mia à la maison, et jure qu'il sera le meilleur père possible. Dans ce monde, rien ne compte plus pour lui que de prendre soin de sa fille, pas même le fait de désirer accidentellement le médecin d'à côté. Confronté à son attirance croissante pour Sean et à de douloureux souvenirs de sa famille, Ash doit apprendre que l'amour est tout ce qui compte.

Aujourd'hui

Lorsque le monde met une étiquette sur le dos d’un homme et le juge aveuglément, est-il possible pour lui de trouver l’amour ?

Les plans d’avenir de Brady tombent à l’eau lorsque sa nièce et son neveu perdent leurs parents lors d’un tragique accident, et qu’il devient père du jour au lendemain. Son trouble développemental de la coordination gouverne sa vie, mais il combat à la fois le TDC et la peur qui le pourchasse tous les jours : celle de pouvoir offrir un vrai foyer à Maddie et Lucas. 

Eric, pompier, est en première ligne pour combattre la menace de destruction de la nature dans les forêts californiennes, avec son équipe CalFire. Concentré et calme, même dans les situations les plus désespérées, Il affectionne particulièrement son camion, aime sa carrière et peut s’appuyer sur ses meilleurs amis. Tout ce dont il a besoin, maintenant, c’est d’amour, mais impossible le trouver, apparemment. 

Promesse

Leo Byrne est flic, Jason Banks est un ancien détenu. Même après un baiser volé, un déclic doit se produire pour que Leo puisse convaincre Jason que tomber amoureux est une option envisageable.

Jason a fait la promesse de garder sa fille en sécurité et il a fini derrière les barreaux pour ça. Se porter volontaire comme pompier détenu était sa meilleure façon d’aider la communauté et de rester sain d’esprit. Néanmoins, maintenant qu’il est sorti, il n’a même plus cette possibilité. Il a perdu son avenir, son respect de lui-même et n’a aucun ami ni aucun endroit à qualifier de foyer. Pire, même après avoir sauvé sa fille, il n’arrive toujours pas à la protéger de l’homme qui veut l’utiliser comme monnaie d’échange pour recevoir de l’argent. Rencontrer Leo offre une possibilité à Jason de garder Daisy en sécurité, mais tomber amoureux de ce flic têtu signifie que la vérité doit être révélée et il pourrait à nouveau tout perdre.

Leo Byrne es policía; Jason Banks, un exconvicto. La atracción entre ambos hombres es palpable, y sin embargo, un beso robado no es suficiente, algo más debe suceder para que Leo pueda convencer a Jason de que enamorarse es posible para él.

Adoptado muy joven, Leo forma parte de la extensa familia Byrne. Con su perro Cap, tres hermanos y un montón de sobrinos y sobrinas, nunca se siente solo y su vida está llena. El amor es lo último en su lista de cosas por hacer, sin embargo, ver a sus dos mejores amigos felices y formando nuevas familias le hace desear cosas que no cree posibles. Besar a Jason en un evento en honor a la valentía del exrecluso es una cosa, todo lo demás está fuera de los límites.

Hasta que Jason no tiene a nadie a quien recurrir, y es Leo quien le ayuda en su peor momento. Acoger al hombre y a su hija en su casa es una cosa, enamorarse del exconvicto es otra completamente diferente.

Jason hizo un trato para mantener a salvo a su hija y pasó años tras las rejas por ello. El voluntariado como bombero convicto era tanto para ayudar a la comunidad como para salvar su cordura, pero ahora que recuperó su libertad ya ni siquiera tiene eso. Perdió su futuro y su autoestima, tampoco tiene amigos ni un lugar al que llamar hogar. Lo peor de todo es que, incluso después de rescatar a su hija, sigue sin poder mantenerla a salvo del hombre que quiere utilizarla como moneda de cambio.

Conocer a Leo podría darle a Jason una forma de mantener a Daisy a salvo. Sin embargo, enamorarse del testarudo policía significa que la verdad tiene que salir a la luz, y si eso sucede, él podría perderlo todo una vez más.

A remote Scottish island might be the only safe place to hide.

Alex became the envy of many when he and his fellow bandmates won second place in a huge TV talent show. He has more money than he knows what to do with, no life goals, an ex-boyfriend selling a sex tape, and now, someone who wants him dead, or at the very least maimed.

Il vigile del fuoco Eric è in prima linea insieme alla sua squadra contro gli incendi che minacciano la California. Determinato e calmo persino nelle situazioni più difficili, Eric nutre una vera e propria adorazione per la sua camionetta, ama il suo lavoro e può contare su due amici che gli guardano sempre le spalle. L’unica cosa che gli manca è l’amore, e giorno dopo giorno sembra sempre più difficile trovarlo. Al matrimonio del suo migliore amico, però, Eric si invaghisce a prima vista del timido Brady, anche se il bel ragazzo snello è molto diverso dal tipo di uomo che in genere attira la sua attenzione.

Come se non bastasse, persino dopo essere riuscito a ricongiungersi con la figlioletta non riesce a tenerla al sicuro dall’uomo che vuole usarla come merce di scambio. L’incontro con Leo potrebbe significare la salvezza per Daisy, ma Jason sa che innamorarsi del testardo poliziotto potrebbe voler dire rivelare ogni cosa, rischiando di mettere di nuovo tutto a rischio.
