From the outside, Scottish actress Ella McGregor has the perfect
life. A list of Hollywood blockbusters under her belt, wealth, a fancy house,
flash cars, a great family, and a brilliant boyfriend, Donovan... until she
learns he has betrayed her. In fact, Ella’s story could be the script of her
next Hollywood blockbuster: Conned – a tale of trusting the wrong person.
Connor Andrews, Donovan's best friend, has loved Ella since the day they first met five years ago. Too bad for him he didn't get there first, but with Donovan out of the picture, Connor wonders if he may finally have a shot with the woman of his dreams.
With so much history between them, and heartbroken Ella's world ripped apart, can he make her see he's just what she needs? Will Ella let Connor help her to stand up and fight, or will she run and hide from the one person who she trusts the most?

Excerpt
I
try to watch the movie but I’m feeling agitated and also a bit tipsy from the
wine. Which isn’t a great surprise. I’ve not had alcohol in weeks. Add that to
the small matter that I’ve not been eating properly. So, of course the alcohol
was bound to hit me quicker than usual. “What’s wrong?” Connor asks. “I’m not really
in the mood to watch this.” “Do you want to see the proposal then?” “Can we do
that tomorrow? I think I’ll go to bed,” I say, standing, but the room spins.
Bloody hell. I don’t even think I’ve had two full glasses of wine. “Here. Take
my arm,” says Connor, standing up. “I don’t want your help.” I take a step away
from him, but my body sways. “You might not want it but you need it.”
“Whatever.” We take the stairs slowly. I think Connor’s scared I’m going to
fall back down. His arm is around my waist, gripping me tightly. At the top, he
stops and opens the first bedroom door. “I’m not sleeping in there,” I shout,
pulling the door closed. Yes, it’s the master bedroom, but I’ve not spent a
night in there since I found out about Donovan. “Oh. So where are you
sleeping?” “At the back of the house. The last room.” He stares at me, puzzled.
I know what he’s thinking; of all the bedrooms I can pick, I choose the
smallest room in the house. “Okay.” We walk along the hallway until we reach
the end. He opens the door and sighs. I don’t blame him. The room is cluttered
with most of my things. He releases me and I throw myself face down on the bed.
I’m feeling tired and teary and I want to be alone. “Ella, are you okay?” he
asks, his voice full of concern. I shrug. “I don’t know. I honestly don’t know
anything anymore.” My tears fall onto the pillow and I shiver before I feel a
blanket being wrapped around me and strong arms holding me.

International football star Fletcher Adams always has an eye on the ladies and, more often than not, one on each arm. The sexy football pin-up knows he needs to make changes in his life, but changes don’t come easily. It’s time to head home to Scotland, away from everything that distracts him, and concentrate on Playing the Game.
Jessica Taylor, a young ambitious business woman, has her whole life mapped out. With her own home, a boyfriend, and a baby on the way, her life is moving along according to plan. When the unimaginable happens, her world crashes down and the happy life she had is plunged into darkness.
A meeting of chance brings together two very different people from different worlds. Both are trying to move forward from pasts that haunt them. While Jessica is trying to pick up the pieces of her shattered life, Fletcher is trying to prove he’s calmed his wild ways and is ready to be the man to help piece her heart back together. Will Fletcher Adams be the right man to save her, or will she be the one to save him?

Excerpt
Fletcher
“You’re Fletcher, aren’t you?” a tall blonde with legs that go on for miles asks, resting her hand on my shoulder. Logan smiles with a look that says you’ve pulled tonight. She is pretty tidy looking, but has overdone it in the make-up department. I rake my eyes in appreciation over her body. Curves in all the right places, and those tits, bloody hell…I could have a lot
of fun with those as I slide between them, but of course, they’re probably fake.
“Yeah,” I say, even though I shouldn’t, but I’m sure the rest of the guys are loving the female attention they’re getting. “Drinks all around,” I call out.
The bartender smiles as he looks at our company. Even he has an idea of how tonight will end.

The blonde tells me her name, but I don’t take any notice. I don’t want to remember her name in the morning, or whenever I creep out of her bed. Makes it easier that way. As the alcohol flows freely, the blonde keeps trying to persuade me to get on the dance floor with her. She seems the type that wouldn’t mind putting on one hell of a floor show. I might be on the drunk side now, but I’m still cautious. I’ve definitely learned my lesson over the years; you just never know who is lurking around, ready to get pictures. She can do what she wants for me in private later on, though.

Excerpt
Jessica
“Can you please stop fussing?” I ask calmly, although I’m silently counting one-to-ten under my breath as my mum tries to help me stand up. But she doesn’t stop fussing. She hasn’t listened to anything I’ve said to her this last week. I don’t know how much more of this I can cope with. It’s only going to get worse when I leave the hospital and go home with her. At least here she’s had to go home at night, and I’ve gotten a bit of peace and quiet. My mum means well, but this is too much, even for me.
“Oh, for FUCK’S sake! Leave it!”
Her expression changes; her soft features sadden at my words. Shit! Now I’ve only gone and upset her.
“There’s no need for you to be cursing. I know you’ve been through a lot, but there’s no need to take it out on me.” She turns her head away from me, not wanting me to see the hurt in her eyes.
“Sorry,” I say weakly. None of this situation is my mum’s fault; I shouldn’t take it out on her. But I can’t seem to help it. What’s the saying? ‘You hurt the ones you love the most.’ In my case, it’s certainly true. When I’ve not been sitting, staring blankly into space, ignoring everyone, I’ve been damn right rude. Under any other circumstances even I would have to admit to being a right bitch.

“Sweetheart, it’s fine. I just want to help you.” She takes my arm, and I let her this time. There’s not a single part of my body that’s not sore.
