Twee huisgenoten. Twee anonieme datingprofielen. Een match.

Maar als zijn vriendin voor haar verjaardag een wel heel gewaagd verjaardagscadeau vraagt, belandt Keaton daardoor op een anonieme app. Daar ontmoet hij ene ''SinnerThree''. Wat begint als een spannend spel vol flirterige berichten en fantasieën, wordt al snel iets veel persoonlijkers. Want wat als de man achter het profiel veel dichterbij is dan Keaton ooit had gedacht? Wanneer geheimen aan het licht komen moeten beide jongens kiezen: vluchten voor hun gevoelens, of eindelijk durven zijn wie ze echt zijn. Top secret is een M/M-romance van bestsellerauteurs Elle Kennedy en Sarina Bowen.

Iedereen heeft tegen haar gelogen. Wie kan ze nog vertrouwen? Casey Tresscott voelt zich opgesloten in haar eigen leven. Sinds ze vorig jaar bijna is omgekomen bij een ongeluk is haar familie verstikkend beschermend en wordt er op school genadeloos over haar geroddeld. Het enige lichtpuntje in haar leven is haar vriendschap – of misschien meer dan dat? – met Fenn Bishop. Fenn lijkt alles mee te hebben: hij is knap, slim, populair en steenrijk. Maar hij verbergt grote geheimen, waaronder het feit dat hij meer weet dan hij toegeeft over de avond dat Casey bijna stierf. Hij dacht dat liegen de beste keuze was, maar dan raakt hij verstrikt in zijn eigen leugens. Wanneer de lang bewaard gebleven geheimen eindelijk uitkomen, ontploft de hele boel op Sandover Prep School. Casey is woest dat iedereen tegen haar gelogen heeft. Ze keert zich af van haar familie, luistert naar niemand meer en breekt elke regel die er maar is. Fenn wil wanhopig graag de volledige waarheid eens en voor altijd boven water krijgen voor Casey, en hoopt haar zo weer een beetje op het rechte pad te krijgen. Maar wat als Casey niet langer het meisje is waar hij verliefd op is geworden? Is er hoop voor hun toekomst samen, of blijft ze voor altijd een wilde rebel? Rebel is het langverwachte tweede deel van de Sandover-serie van Elle Kennedy, die zich afspeelt op een kostschool voor rijke jongens. Misfit is het eerste deel.

From New York Times bestselling author Elle Kennedy and USA Today bestselling author Sarina Bowen comes the next in the spin-off series of their wildly successful Him and Us books. "I'm ridiculously attracted to you, Hottie. I figured I should be up front about that." "Shut up and kiss me again, Snipes." Hailey Taylor Emery has a hunch that Sniper87, her favorite client at Fetch—the anonymous virtual assistant service she runs with her ex-husband—is actually gorgeous hockey superstar Matt Eriksson. It's against the rules to check his file, but she's pretty sure she spends every day texting her lifelong crush and catering to his every need. Still processing her recent divorce, Hailey is perfectly content for this to be nothing but harmless online flirting...until Sniper87 wants to meet her. Face to face. Cue: utter panic. Matt Eriksson is no stranger to heartbreak. He's still not over the destruction of his own marriage, and it sucks to be the only guy on his team who knows the truth: that hockey and long-term relationships are a toxic mix. He barely sees his kids, and dealing with his ex makes him feel worthless. The only person in his life who seems to understand is someone who won't show her pretty face: the mysterious HTE, aka "Hottie." Surely, though, it's nothing a pair of fourth row hockey seats can't fix. Superfan Hailey can't resist the offer, and Matt can't resist Hailey. But when the phone screens come down, can they get past their baggage long enough to build something real?

A brand-new standalone novel in the New York Times bestselling Briar U series! What I learned after last year’s distractions cost my hockey team our entire season? No more screwing up. No more screwing, period. As the new team captain, I need a new philosophy: hockey and school now, women later. Which means that I, Hunter Davenport, am officially going celibate…no matter how hard that makes things. But there’s nothing in the rulebook that says I can’t be friends with a woman. And I won’t lie—my new classmate Demi Davis is one cool chick. Her smart mouth is hot as hell, and so is the rest of her, but the fact that she’s got a boyfriend eliminates the temptation to touch her. Except three months into our friendship, Demi is single and looking for a rebound. And she’s making a play for me. Avoiding her is impossible. We’re paired up on a yearlong school project, but I’m confident I can resist her. We’d never work, anyway. Our backgrounds are too different, our goals aren’t aligned, and her parents hate my guts. Hooking up is a very bad idea. Now I just have to convince my body—and my heart.

Everyone says I’m a bad girl. They’re only partly right—I don’t let fear rule me, and I certainly don’t care what people think. But I draw the line at sleeping with the enemy. As the daughter of Briar’s head hockey coach, I’d be vilified if I hooked up with a player from a rival team. And that’s who Jake Connelly is. Harvard’s star forward is arrogant, annoying, and too attractive for his own good. But fate is cruel—I require his help to secure a much-coveted internship, and the sexy jerk isn’t making it easy for me. I need Connelly to be my fake boyfriend. For every fake date…he wants a real one. Which means this bad girl is in big trouble. Nothing good can come from sneaking around with Jake Connelly. My father would kill me, my friends will revolt, and my post-college career is on the line. But while it’s getting harder and harder to resist Jake’s oozing sex appeal and cocky grin, I refuse to fall for him. That’s the one risk I’m not willing to take.

“Hun stirrer på mig, som om hun vil flå tøjet af mig. Eller bare flå noget i stykker. Jeg er ikke helt sikker på hvad.”Jess Canning står over for sit livs største udfordring: at arrangere sin brors Jamies kæmpebryllup, hvor gæstelisten består af landets største hockeystjerner. I familien er hun kendt som den flagrende lillesøster, der konstant skifter mening og aldrig kan gennemføre noget. Med andre ord: Hun kan ikke tabe det her på gulvet. Og ingen (ingen!) må høre om den kæmpe fejltagelse, hun begik med forloveren i et svagt øjeblik sidste forår. Det var en fejl, og det kommer ikke til at ske igen. Absolut ikke. Heller ikke selvom han er den mest sexede mand, hun nogensinde har mødt.For Blake Riley er det her bryllup skæbnen, der smiler til ham. Jess er brudepige, og han er forlover. Lad kampen begynde. Og hvad så, hvis han står overfor en lillesmule (okay, en hel del) modstand? Han skal bare finde en måde at overbevise den stædige blondine om, at han i grunden er en god fyr med et blakket rygte. Heldigvis ved enhver professionel hockeyspiller, at man må kæmpe for det, hvis man vil score.Men Jess har mere presserende udfordringer pt. end at afvise Blake. Fx: Vil vielsen blive forsinket af, at nogen har drukket bedstemor fuld? Hører glimmer egentlig til et bryllup? Og er det virkelig så slemt at myrde forloveren?
