Men at Work
4 primary works
Book 1
I'm too smart to do something dumb like fall in love with the pizza boy.
I love pizza as much as the next girl, but I'm not bingeing on delivery for the pepperoni. It's Tariq's gorgeous smile I crave. But I don't have time for a guy, with finals coming up, then graduate school graduation & starting a new job. Still, his kisses are so hot.
And it turns out, the sex is downright mind-blowing. Maybe I can find time for a fling. It doesn't have to be more than that. Just because we like the same comics and nerdy movie quotes doesn't mean I'm falling for him.
I'm way too smart for that.
Book 2
Even across the distance between our windows, I knew the instant his dark eyes saw me. I could almost feel his gaze as a caress over my body. He watched me with an almost-smile that said we shared a secret.
Nina's got a lot on her mind: getting settled in her new apartment, her upcoming med school rotation in the emergency department, and her diet-obsessed mother and sister constantly harping on her weight. Which totally explains letting her neighbor catch a front row view of her naked self through the uncovered window. Her new smoking hot neighbor. Who also happens to be the cashier at her neighborhood grocery store. She should be embarrassed, but there's something about Kam that sparks Nina's exhibitionist side for the first time. A week of scorching sexts and showing off at the window for each other ends in an explosive night together. Little by little, he pushes her out of her sexual comfort zone. And Kam’s encouragement gives her the courage she needs to take chances in other areas of her life.
Up close, Nina discovers Kam has scars of his own. Literal scars that hint at a devastating past, but Kam won't talk about what he's been through. Mind-blowing sex might be a great way to avoid the pain, but Nina needs him to open up if they're ever going to be more than a booty call. Kam has already pushed Nina's sexual boundaries to their limit, but can she convince him that together they can create a brand new comfort zone?

Book 3
When it comes to guys, I don't do repeats. I'm too messed up to do more than a one night stand. Until Josh.
He got a second chance on a technicality. He's got more tattoos than I do, and I want to lick every one of them. Suddenly he's there to help me pick up the pieces after I call the cops on my dad. He rescues me from myself on Halloween. And always with that lazy smile and bone-melting kisses.
But he's getting tired of my excuses about why I can't give him more than sex. Maybe it's time to put my past behind me, and let myself give someone more than my body. But will Josh stick around long enough for me to find the courage to do that?
Book 4
Can a holiday fling with an expiration date turn into a second chance with the one who got away?
Instead of her usual trip home to celebrate Hanukkah, Laura is spending the holiday mourning her mom's recent death. Dealing with her bitter aunt and sorting through the gift shop she inherited aren't feeding her holiday cheer; she needs something to take her mind off her grief and confusion. After years of flirtation, and one night making out years ago, her friend Brady seems like an obvious solution. She proposes they give in to their mutual attraction and spend the eight days of her visit getting to know each other horizontally.
Brady has been in love with globe-trotting Laura since they first kissed when they were teens. Every time she leaves, it hurts more than the last. He knows moving past friendship means it will crush him this time when she walks away, but how can he turn down her offer of exactly what he's dreamed of? Especially when she's dealing with her mom's death and uncertainty about her future. He doesn't want to tie her down, but as the days pass, it gets harder to imagine letting her go.
How does he convince her that everything she's been searching for is right here, without destroying the free spirit he loves?
Disclaimer: Eight Naughty Nights delivers Star Wars references, spankings, Hanukkah and Christmas celebrations, a second chance at the one that got away, and a lifetime supply of sexy bartender in a Santa hat. And lots of delicious, naughty sex.
