The Marriage Trap
The sexy second installment in the New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling Marriage to a Billionaire trilogy, this contemporary billionaire romance from “one of the most exciting breakout novelists” (USA TODAY) Jennifer Probst delivers passion, family loyalty, and a marriage of convenience that feels all too real. To honor his late father’s final wish, hot, single billionaire Michael Conte must find a suitable bride—and quickly—so his traditional Italian family will allow his sister to marry. Determined to protect his freedom, Michael proposes a temporary arrangement to fiery, independent photographer Maggie Ryan: pose as his fiancée during her upcoming trip to Milan, and he’ll back off from pursuing her best friend and end their dangerously flirtatious standoff. But once they arrive in Italy, their fake engagement ignites very real desire. What begins as a no-strings-attached arrangement turns into a slow-burn battle of wills, family expectations, and undeniable chemistry. As passion deepens and loyalties are tested, Maggie and Michael must decide whether their pretend relationship can survive the truth—and whether love is the one commitment neither of them planned for. A steamy marriage-of-convenience romance filled with sexual tension, sharp banter, and emotional payoff, this installment in the Marriage to a Billionaire series blends family drama, Italian glamour, and irresistible attraction.

Chasing Me: Sex on the Beach
It was supposed to be a love story.... I knew she was out of my league but I didn''t care. Looking back, I wonder if I hadn''t pursued her, would things have turned out differently? Is it Fate that determines our choices in life? God? Free will? Or just plain old innate selfishness? I got her, of course. There hadn''t been a girl I wasn''t able to seduce. Problem was she seduced me right back, body, mind, and soul. She possessed me, tormented me, and showed me a world that was so bright and pure I was almost blinded. Didn''t she know after such a drug I could never settle for less? Didn''t she realize no matter how many times I screwed up, or broke her heart, or bent her to my will, I''d never be able to let her go? If I hadn''t known such intensity existed, would it have been better for both of us? True love, the real kind, isn''t nice and sweet and pure. No, it''s dirty, and sinful, and messy. It''s like ripping a chunk of flesh from your body and watching yourself bleed out in slow, helpless intervals until you thankfully pass out. This isn''t a love story. But it''s the only story I got. James and Quinn steam up the pages again in Chasing Me. Their chemistry will pull you in and keep you on the edge of your seat in this deliciously sexy story of love, trust, and forgiveness. --NYT and USA Today Bestselling Author Kelly Elliott "Probst brought an unexpected edge to CHASING ME. She tests her characters'' loyalty, trust and love for each other, making readers question the outcome of the story. I held my breath with anticipation from the beginning until the very last page. Fans of Quinn and James will not be disappointed!" -- Under the Covers Book Blog
