Live out loud.” When their mother passed away a decade ago, Evie Ross and her sister, Suda Kaye, were each left a stack of letters, one to be opened every year on their birthday.

From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Audrey Carlan comes a new story in her Marriage Auction series… I run the most elite auction in the world. Candidates and bidders come from all over the globe hoping to change their lives. And I deliver. I’m in the business of bringing couples together in a mutually beneficial and legally binding marriage. The terms are three years for no less than a million dollars a year, not including my commission. Once a pair signs on the dotted line, the contract ensures there is no going back. Most couples find over time they are a love match, but not all. Before I took over The Marriage Auction, there wasn’t an extensive vetting process. Some candidates were subjected to horrors that haunt my every waking moment. I vowed to change that. To stand up for those who deserve more and to release them from the wrongs inflicted upon them by circumstance and chance. What my bidders and candidates don’t know is that I understand exactly what they are experiencing. I wasn’t always known as Madam Alana. Once upon a time, I too was purchased in The Marriage Auction… And this is my story. Reviews for Madam Alana: “If you enjoy the Marriage Auction series, this is a must-read.” ~ Cocktails and Books “Well, Audrey has done it again! Another unputdownable book set in The Marriage Auction prequel timeline of our beloved Madam Alana’s very own auction journey.” ~ miss.willa.colyns.diary “Ms. Carlan did an outstanding job penning this novella. The character depth just pulls you in and makes you feel a myriad of emotions.” ~ The Romance Reporter “I was so so waiting for the novella of Madam Alana when I first met her in the marriage auction series and trust me, it was truly a fabulous backstory or prequel we all wanted.” ~ Noan_Readsblog

"Audrey Carlan has a way with words that cannot be denied." –Kylie Scott, New York Times bestselling author My life has never been easy. Not from the day I took my first breath until now. Only days old, I was placed in a laundry basket and left in front of a firehouse. I never knew who my parents were before being shuffled around from one bad foster home to another. Until the day I arrived at Kerrighan House. My safe haven. My home. I was welcomed with open arms into a world where love and sisterhood were the rule, not the exception. From that moment on, I believed I was safe. That nothing bad could touch me. I was so wrong. Neither my success as a full-figured lingerie and fashion model nor my street smarts as a born and bred Chicago native, safeguarded me against walking into the clutches of a monster. As I try to pull my life back together, I’m brought face to face with a man whose wounds mirror my own. Under his protection, I’m gifted the opportunity to find beauty where there has only ever been pain. And yet, danger lurks, as a new evil threatens to bring me to my knees. Can my savior protect me, or has my fate been sealed? Note: Each book in the Soul Sister series can be read as a standalone.

The newest sizzling romance from Audrey Carlan, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Calendar Girl series. When I was born, I was beloved by my parents. I felt their warmth from the tips of my toes to the untamable curls in my hair—until tragedy hit and I lost them both. With no extended family, I ended up in Kerrighan House, a home for girls just like me—girls who’d lost everything. Mama Kerri took me in and treated me with nothing but love, as did the rest of my sisters of the soul. In that house, we formed a bond that could never be broken. Now danger seems to follow all of us. But what danger could come to me: a petite, high-school Spanish teacher who’d never hurt a fly? The only one on my tail is Omar Alvarado, the bodyguard hired to protect me from the danger lurking around my sisters. The more I shun his advances though, the harder he tries to earn my favor. Omar seems to like my brand of sass and doesn’t hide the fact he wants me for his own. I’m determined to not get caught up in his beautiful smile, the sexy suggestions he whispers in my ear, or that incredible body that would make any woman swoon with desire. Even with the tension rising between us, all seemed to be kept in check—until I found myself in the middle of a high stakes bank robbery. And the only one who could save me, was the one man I tried so desperately to push away.

The newest sizzling romance from Audrey Carlan, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Calendar Girl series. Twice my life changed in a single day. The first was when I lost my parents. Hand in hand I walked with my big sister up the steps of Kerrighan House, a foster home for girls. We were lucky to be met with open arms and a house filled with children just like us. Children who’d lost everything. From that day forward, we were raised as one big family. Our bonds of sisterhood were strengthened through shared experience, pain, sacrifice, and love. Sisters not by blood, but by choice. Soul sisters. The second day my life changed was on the worst day of my adult life. My boyfriend broke up with me via text. My sleazy boss hit on me, forcing me to quit a job I desperately needed. And the cherry on top, was getting pulled over by an FBI Agent. Little did I know, he’d also save my life that night. From the moment we met, Agent Fontaine wouldn’t dare let me out of his sight. And between his alpha ways, kind brown eyes, and heroism, I was lost to the man who hid behind his job. But this agent had a rule: never fall for a woman you’ve saved. Yet I wasn’t just any woman. I was known among my sisters for taking risks and dreaming big. I was the wild child of the group. We were raised to appreciate every day as the gift it was, and not let anything stand in our way. The more I got to know the brooding, serious FBI man, the more I realized that maybe it was my duty to save him.

If Chase didn’t find me soon, I’d be gone forever. *** In the third and final novel in the erotic suspense, Trinity Trilogy, SOUL connects with the reader by providing the story through the eyes of Gillian, Chase, and the man that wants to own her soul but can’t for she’s already given it to another.

"Be prepared for a serious book hangover as you embark on a year''s worth of sexy heroes and wild rides!" ?Meredith Wild, #1 NYT Bestselling Author of the Hacker Series Synopsis Vegas, Viscous Exes, and Ventilators.

I''d missed my payment to Blaine, owed the last client a hundred grand I didn''t have, and my father was on his deathbed. To make matters worse, Wes was missing in action.

A fianc?e. I''m going to Chicago to pretend to be some Italian Stallion''s future wife. Why a massive hunk, boxer, and rich restaurateur needs a fake bride is beyond me. Then again, I''m not paid to know why. I''m paid $100,000 to be his escort, or in this case, the woman he''s supposedly "going" to marry. The moment I met Antony "Tony" Fasano, I thought I might have lost my ability to breathe. In my twenty four years of life, I''d not seen anything like him. Clad only in a small towel precariously dangling from his hips?water droplets streaming down every inch of his muscular frame?I knew right then and there, I''d finally seen male perfection in all its raw glory. What happened next blew me away. It was now abundantly clear why he needed me ... a fake fianc?e.

Swimsuits, sun, surfing, and a sexy Samoan. I headed to the island of Oahu, Hawaii to meet with cutting-edge swimsuit fashion designer, Angel D''Amico, to serve as head model for the "Beauty Comes in All Sizes" swimsuit campaign. The designer wants to show the world that beauty is not just a size two. My curves got me into this gig, and, the moment I laid eyes on my modeling "partner," I''d never been happier with my buxom form. Tai Niko had everything the average man lacked. Height, broad shoulders, a nipped in waist, square pecs, tree trunk thighs, and a look that rivaled "The Rock." The part that made me drool and weakened my knees, was the thick, intricate tribal tattoos running down the entire left side of his muscled frame from shoulder to ankle. The design was unlike anything I''d ever seen, and I couldn''t wait to trace the tips of my fingers over every inch. *** In the fifth book of the Calendar Girl serial, Mia is sent to Oahu, HI. Still on her mission to save her father, she embraces the model life to prove beauty really does come in all sizes. Each installment in the Calendar Girl Serial will release every month throughout 2015. The stories will feature Mia''s journey as an escort to twelve clients in twelve different locations.
