Her mother is a gambling addict, and her father works on oil rigs and couldn’t care less about her. On the first day of Kindergarten, she meets a girl named Delia Badd. Delia is the oldest daughter of Sebastian and Dru Badd. Over the years, Emerson becomes more and more like family to the Badds, until eventually, she lives with them and considers Delia her sister and Duncan and Dane—Bast and Dru’s hellraiser sons—her brothers. Now, she’s home for the holidays and about to graduate college. She’s got no plans to meet anyone. Her future is soccer—making the US Women’s National Team. That’s it. Anything—and anyone—else is just a distraction. Hayden McCaffrey’s entire world is his parents. He went to college in town, works from home so he can be near them, and has no plans to change anything. And then, a few weeks before his parents were set to go on a fiftieth-anniversary Christmas cruise to Alaska, tragedy strikes, and Hayden finds himself accompanying his mother on the cruise. And he hates boats. With low expectations for their first Christmas after the tragedy, Hayden certainly isn’t expecting to meet a beautiful, fiery redhead with a giant, crazy, adopted family. The Badds do what they do pull Hayden and his mother into their orbit and make them feel welcome. Sparks fly between Hayden and Emerson. Sparks are one thing, falling in love and making two completely different lives fit together? That’s a whole different ball game. Take a sleigh ride with Hayden, Emerson, Bast, Dru, and all the rest of your favorite Badd and Goode characters in this full-length return to the world of the Badd Brothers, set twenty years after the events of the original series. It’s going to be a Very Badd Christmas, indeed. less

I’m THE Hunter Hawkins. I’m sure you’ve heard of me. Billionaire at age 30 and one of the most famously eligible bachelors on the planet. I rule my little empire from my corner office in Manhattan overlooking Fifth Avenue. I have everything I want and more, yet despite that…I’m restless and bored. Perhaps even lonely... moreI’m THE Hunter Hawkins. I’m sure you’ve heard of me. Billionaire at age 30 and one of the most famously eligible bachelors on the planet. I rule my little empire from my corner office in Manhattan overlooking Fifth Avenue. I have everything I want and more, yet despite that…I’m restless and bored. Perhaps even lonely. Always a risk taker, I go out on a limb and decide to fly alone to Ketchikan, Alaska to research and prepare a pitch for investment in a family-owned business named Badd’s Bar and Grille. I don’t want all of their company—I don’t even want a piece of it. I just want the challenge of convincing them to let me be a part of what they’ve got going on. It turns out the business side of things is the easy part. The hard part? Delia Badd. She may be the last woman on earth to know who I am, and she’s beautiful, bold, witty, sarcastic, fascinating…and allergic to love and commitment. I always get everything I want…. AND I WILL GET HER TO FALL FOR ME. * * *. A gorgeous, arrogant man breezes into my bar one day and captures my attention the moment I lay eyes on him, but I’m not looking for love. My best friend and adopted sister, Emerson, claims the infamous Badd Family Love Charm is coming for me next; the joke’s on her, though, because I will not let that happen. I have clinically awful taste in men, for one thing. And for another, I refuse to be the first person in my family to screw up love. I mean, look at our track record. Every adult in my family has met, fallen in love, and found happily ever after when the Love Charm strikes. You can’t screw something up if you refuse to let it happen in the first place, right? So yeah, no matter how hot this “Hawk” may be, no matter how rich he obviously is, no matter how scorching, mind-altering, and life-changing our physical chemistry may be, I’m dead-set on one. I WILL NOT FALL IN LOVE WITH HIM. less

When my friends Raquel and Hamish decide to have their wedding in Ketchikan, Alaska—only a relatively short flight from Seattle, where I ended up after a nasty breakup with my cheating ex—my BFF Lindsey has what she thinks is a genius idea: bring a hot fake boyfriend to the wedding just to piss off Hayes. It’s stupid, immature, and bound to backfire somehow; it always does. But for Raquel and Hamish, I agree to go to the wedding... moreWhen my friends Raquel and Hamish decide to have their wedding in Ketchikan, Alaska—only a relatively short flight from Seattle, where I ended up after a nasty breakup with my cheating ex—my BFF Lindsey has what she thinks is a genius idea: bring a hot fake boyfriend to the wedding just to piss off Hayes. It’s stupid, immature, and bound to backfire somehow; it always does. But for Raquel and Hamish, I agree to go to the wedding. I go to Ketchikan and check out the bar where they plan on partying after the wedding, and meet a gorgeous, flirtatious, charming guy, and suddenly Lindsey’s plan doesn’t seem so stupid. Maybe a fun weekend with a gorgeous guy is just what I need to shake myself out of the post-breakup funk. Duncan Badd, my fake date, turns out to be problematically charming, sexy, and tempting. One thing turns into another, and suddenly I’m in bed with a man who makes my pulse race and my cold, dead, bitter, broken heart do funny and inconveniently squishy things. Too bad I have no intention of sticking around after the wedding. But then I discover life has other plans for me. * * *. Rune Rigby is a smokeshow. Fine as hell. Sarcastic, witty, scorching hot, and fiercely independent. I discern all this within the first few minutes of meeting her—when she asks me to be her date to a friend’s wedding, to make jealous her cheating butt-nugget of an ex. Fine by me—spend a weekend with a hot girl and her friends? Sign me up. When things between Rune and I escalate into the hottest sex of my life, a weekend of casual fun turns into very real feelings I can’t deny. She can, though. And she does. It’s only a truly unexpected turn of fate that brings her back to me, forcing us to face our fears, our feelings, and our plans for the future. less
