Room service attendant Giselle Burke has worked at the New Orleans’s Hotel Beaudelaire for two years. While the rich and famous have their most carnal desires indulged during the hotel’s rare Den of Sin weekends, Giselle must remain an outsider looking in on the revelry.

Unfortunately, that’s the only way she’ll have him. ***Contains scenes of an explicit sexual nature and adult language.*** less

Eve and Brent Troy have been married three months and have yet to consummate their union. Faced with losing her claim to her family property, busy surgeon Eve had to marry before her thirtieth birthday. Brent was single and convenient, and more importantly, he said yes. Now, she wants to light a flame under their cold marriage, but they’re strangers and don’t know how to connect. A New Year’s weekend at The Beaudelaire is supposed to give them the tools to connect. When they arrive, they learn the tool they’ve been equipped with comes in form of Eve’s best friend and fellow doctor Remy Kelly. He knows Eve’s marriage is a sham, and is intent on claiming her for himself. But, when faced with Eve’s strapping new husband who comes onto Remy’s radar as exactly the kind of alpha male he likes, he has a battle of conscience. He wants to take Eve home, not Brent, but for some reason they seem like a package deal. At The Beaudelaire anything goes, so instead of two people letting down their guards, three forge bonds. That’s all well and good for the weekend, but what will shake out of their tentative ménage à trois when it’s time to go home? less

At thirty-three, she’s content with her quiet life on her Texas ranch and the solitude residence in the middle of nowhere brings her. When her uncle has a brush with death, she returns home, reluctantly, to lend her support…only to come face to face with the man half responsible for her leaving in the first place. It would seem the baseball team her big brother Henri sponsors has a blast from her past on its roster, and that man has never forgiven her for how she left.

Running into her after so many years at her family’s hotel rips open old wounds…but reignites former passions, too. As if things aren’t complicated enough, Leary’s been in a committed relationship to his cowboy right fielder Ren Thompson for a year. He loves Ren, but Emilie’s allure as “the one who got away” is impossible to ignore. When the sometime dominatrix Emilie turns out to be a convenient teacher for Ren’s BDSM curiosity, Leary wonders if it’s possible the three of them could each have it all. They could make a perfectly balanced trio, but first, Emilie has to accept that being a Beaudelaire means scandal at every turn—and that cause of her newest one may be the perfect cure for what ails her. less
