This collection includes the complete novels:

Billionaire Bodyguard - Violet Miller lives by logic and control-until Chad Morgan shatters both. Billionaire, former Marine, and the man behind her only unforgettable kiss... and his brutal rejection. When threats turn deadly, Violet's brother calls in the one man sworn to protect her. Chad will keep her safe at any cost-even if staying close reignites feelings neither has buried. With danger closing in and obsession lurking closer than they think, Violet must risk her heart-and her life-on the man who once walked away.

Forever Yours - Celeste Beaumont has loved Andrew Carter forever-her best friend's older brother and the man who once saw her as nothing more than the girl next door. Now twenty-five, she's confident, captivating, and done waiting. Recently divorced and wary of love, Andrew never meant to fall again-especially not for Celeste. But the woman she's become is impossible to ignore, and the attraction between them is dangerously forbidden. One misunderstanding shatters their fragile trust. When Celeste disappears soon after, Andrew realises too late what he's about to lose. Now he'll risk everything to find her-and prove she's always been the one.

The Playboy's Surrender - Twenty-three-year-old Olivia Clifton lands her dream job at a luxury island resort-hoping to finally catch the eye of Wyatt Boyd, the man she's quietly loved for years. But while Wyatt barely notices her, billionaire playboy Jack Alden does. Jaded, charming, and nursing a broken engagement, Jack offers to help Olivia win another man... only to fall for her himself. As tropical nights turn friendship into desire, Olivia realises the man teaching her confidence may be the one she can't lose.
