With a foreword by bestselling author Cat Johnson, Duty and Desire features stories of U.S. soldiers, sailors, aviators, marines and many more. Uniforms have never been sexier.

Invasion of Privacy and Other Short Stories by Jim Liston
Invasion of Privacy
If you’re the person who murdered my wife and think you’ve gotten away with it, think again. I’m looking for you, and I’ll eventually find you.
Is it wrong for me to try and find the person who ruined my life, even at the expense of stealing a few moments of someone’s privacy? If I invade a person’s privacy without them knowing it, what’s the harm? I guess it all comes down to the question of whether I’m willing to risk the consequence of going to jail if I’m caught. I am. What do I have to lose?

Thrones of Desire: Erotic Tales of Swords, Mist and Fire by Mitzi Szereto
Thrones of Desire is a place where lust and legend abound, and adventure, passion and danger entwine. Think mystical lands and creatures, kings and queens, knights and renegades, heroes and villains, warlords, maidens and princesses. Think battles and danger, honor and dishonor, good and evil. Most of all, think hearts filled with passion and secret desire. This is a place where romantic chivalry is alive and well, but so too is romantic wickedness. This is a place where the good do not always win, and the bad are often more captivating and desirable than their altruistic counterparts. In these lush and timeless landscapes, the battle for flesh can be as important as the battle for power. Intrigue, sorcery, revenge, lawlessness, dark secrets and mysterious elixirs; entanglements with supernatural beings — everything is possible in these magical mythical landscapes. Inspired by Game of Thrones these imaginative steamy tales transport the reader to fantastical realms. Featuring a special foreword from legendary fantasy author Piers Anthony.

The sons of Jordan Birchmier, Christian and Jordan, have been at war with one another for years. When older brother, Christian, caught younger brother, Jordan, behaving badly and had their father strike Jordan from the will, the younger Birchmier swore to get revenge.
That revenge caught innocent Willow, a woman from a poor family that basically won the lottery when she got a job at Birchmier and Sons. Photos of her having drunken sex emailed to Christian dash all of her hopes and dreams, though, when they are used to blackmail him into firing her.
When Jordan and Willow meet, it seems that romance and a mutual desire for revenge cause them to bond. But the plan that they hatch ends with a shocking twist Willow never sees coming.

What Jane doesn’t know is that this is simply the next step in her submission. If she does well, she’ll be rewarded, in ways she never expected. But if she fails…

While trying to calm down, Danika wanders into the woods and passes through an unseen barrier. The world that Danika is forced into is one where all women are witches and their powers are taken… but only through the act of sex.
Will the King of the mysterious tribe that captures her let her go? Or will he keep her as his sex slave for good?
Love’s Storm (Stranded With The Billionaire):Chloe has always been the strange girl. She’s not as wealthy as her friends, and certainly not as pretty as her best friend Amanda. She’s struggling to afford community college while Amanda glides through her expensive university with rich boyfriends.
Amanda’s got an idea to help, though. She’ll bring her friend out on the yacht, and then good times will be had by all. She even brings two hot guys for Chloe to hook up with! There’s only one problem: they’re gay.
An unexpected storm throws Amanda’s boat against a small island and leaves the yacht’s captain unconscious, Chloe has to make the whole group work together to survive. Things seem to be going well until another boat crashes into the island, too.
Justis and Chloe immediately have chemistry. But will Chloe allow that chemistry to blossom into something more?
This bundle also includes A Lover For The Holidays (An Erotic Gay Sex, Professor and Student Story)
Perfect Need – Seven Tales of Love and Passion by Barbara L.B. Storey
Close your eyes.
Fall in love.
Stay there.
~ Rumi
You never know who you’ll fall in love with, or why, or whether it’s a good idea – ask Rowan in A Star, A Stone. A sudden rainstorm – Stormy Weather – or even an exercise class – The Queen of Heaven – can be the spark that creates abandon and exhilarating passion between two lovers. In Dolce, a full-course Italian meal prepared with love whets . . . other appetites.
The stories in Perfect Need explore what love and passion can become, how they can affect two people for a moment, or for a lifetime; when they tumble into a love they never expected; when they decide it’s worth the risk to stay . . . or not.
