gOING ALL IN
She’s going to lose a bet… or I’m going to lose her heart.
I’m about to lose my future wife, and we aren’t even married yet. But despite me being sure she’s the one I’m meant to marry, Holly’s convinced we’re not meant to be. That may have something to do with my mom being engaged to Holly’s dad, but we didn’t know about that until after the hottest night of our lives. That means nothing to Holly now, though; she wouldn’t be caught dead dating a stepbrother.
Maybe I should be offended, but I’m not really her stepbrother yet, and I see no problem with our relationship moving forward. But she’s determined to find a date for the upcoming wedding—anyone but me.
Holly’s about to learn that when I set my sights on something I really want, I go all in. I’m offering her a bet: if she can meet Mr. Right and show up to the wedding with someone she’s really in love with, I’ll pay up. But if not? She’s mine.
I just hope I haven’t underestimated how much she hates to lose… because there are some things that are more important than winning.
Fans of Meghan Quinn and Pippa Grant will love this steamy, opposites attract Christmas romantic comedy!
letting it ride
After my last break up, I know better than to gamble on love. And going after my best friend’s younger sister is a sure way to lose it all.
At thirty-four, I should be focused on buying my first house and funding my 401k–not dragging my best friend on a cruise to escape reality. But after a brutal breakup, this vacation is the only bright spot in my otherwise crappy life.
Not on my cruise itinerary? My best friend’s sister showing up…or gambling my heart with her in the worst rebound fling decision of my life. I’ve known her so long she may as well be my sister, too, but between our natural chemistry, protecting her from sleazy guys, and making sure she doesn’t fall overboard, I’m starting to think dirty thoughts about her that I know I shouldn’t.
It’s all I can do to just get through this week at sea. But when our cruise ends abruptly with us stranded, forcing us to work together to get out of this mess, I’m not sure how much longer I can fight these feelings… even if it costs me my best friend.
Fans of Lucy Score and Pippa Grant will love this steamy brother’s-best-friend romantic comedy.
CALLING YOUR BLUFF
One easygoing poker player, one no-nonsense camp counselor, and two hidden pasts...
Why did I think I could become a camp counselor? As a professional poker player, my experience with kids is… limited, at best. What I thought would be a few days of fun by the lake is more intense than I ever could have imagined, and meeting my co-counselor was like a gut punch. She’s smart and beautiful with biting wit and a smile for everyone—except me.
I don’t know what I’ve done to make her hate me, and every attempt to win her over seems to backfire. Most people would fold—but I can’t walk away from her, or from the sadness hiding behind her eyes.
She’s determined to keep her secrets to herself, but she’s not the only one hiding things. So when a camper is in danger, can we put aside our hidden pasts and work together? Or will our secrets cost us more than just our shot at love?
upping the ante
When I gave up my days as a pro poker player for academia, I never imagined it would bring her into my life... or set me up for the biggest gamble of all.
My focus needs to be on establishing myself as a professor of game theory- not on romance. I have no time for a relationship, let alone interest in one. So when the girl in the bar needs someone to pretend to be her boyfriend in a pinch, I'm happy to step in- as long as she realizes it's just a one-time thing.
When I find out she works down the hall from me, though, a new plan starts to form: one that could help us both, as long as we stick to the rules and keep real feelings out of it. Game theory only works if all the players have the same information and strategy, after all.
The more time we spend together pretending to be in a relationship, the harder it's getting to walk away from her. But I haven't told her everything about me. I'll need to come clean if this is going to turn into something real- but when she finds out the truth, she might be the one walking away from me.

About kate
Kate crafts fast-paced, spicy contemporary romance and romantic comedy. Growing up as one of five kids, she mastered the art of escaping into fictional worlds, often by "borrowing" her mom’s Nora Roberts books. These days, when she's not busy creating her own swoon-worthy tales, she's devouring Meghan Quinn and Elsie Silver novels like they're the hottest gossip at a family reunion.
When she's not embroiling her characters in yet another laugh-out-loud disaster, you can usually find her surrounded by animals or with her nose buried in a spicy read. Her pets behave as if they're the real brains behind her stories, but Kate remains unconvinced—though she admits they do have a knack for comedic timing.

This book is so cute!!! I love a good step sibling taboo book and this one delivered. Maddox is so cute and is the ultimate book boyfriend. He is so forthcoming and smart. Holly is smart and “damaged”. They work so well together. I suggest reading this super cute holiday book and get ready for the next book to be released. The teaser at the end of Going All In looks so good!!!

There were some spicy scenes together as well as sweet moments with their blended family, and overall, I really enjoyed reading to find out how things would end up. If you like a bit of step-brother/forbidden romance with a smart and driven FMC, a touch of one bed and a dash of angst at Christmastime, then this is going to be the read for you.
