Desperate Needs

Everyone has needs. But can he acknowledge his?

Connor

I’ve had to crawl through the muck to rebuild my family’s name after my father all but destroyed us. I’ve spilled blood, burned through hours, and poured my soul into this business with a singular focus.

To get back what we lost, and then some. The Callahan name used to evoke respect. Those who don’t remember who I am will learn soon.

Real soon.

Once I take down the top security firm in the country, I’ll be right where I need to be. I just have to prove their weakness. Everything is ready. Almost.

I just need one more piece of info. But lucky for me, I know where to get it. I just didn’t know this cute, little redhead was going to storm into my life and wreck it like a hurricane. Now I have a decision to make.

Keep my little darling or destroy her father’s company.

Clementine

The second I saw Connor Callahan it was life a red flag went up inside my brain.

Fifteen years older than me, and sexier than any man has a right to be, this tatted up businessman is everything I never knew I wanted. And even better, he seems to want me back.

Keeping our meetings on the down low is difficult when your family tree is filled with the kind of people I have hanging on every branch.

He makes me feel so special. And I know there’s got to be another reason he is seeking me out, but I’m too wrapped up in my own desperate yearnings to see it.

Are needs, no matter how desperate, a good enough reason to fall in love?

Series Reviews

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Ms. Gorri knows her stuff when it comes to writing great stories. I love that in her books not every girl is a cookie cutter thin, but curvy and extra thick here and there but 100% all woman with sassy attitudes to bring any sexy man to his knees. Buck/David saw Jan not as a cubby girl, but as a sexy, intelligent, beautiful woman. Can we say swoon? Jan thought Buck was a player at first because of his job as a bartender, but soon learned he was sweet, kind, loyal and all man. Her man! Lucky girl. Enemies to lovers, spicy and sweet, romantic and HEA.” -Bookbub Reviewer
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “David and Jan Funny, sassy, spicy and sweet! I highly recommend this contemporary romcom!” -ARC Reviewer



Pitiful Lies: A Jersey Bad Boys Romance Alternate Cover Edition

Denial is just another type of lie. But sometimes it’s all a girl has.

Giselle

Okay, so I threw a glass of beer in his face the first time I saw him. I thought he was his cousin and that he was treating my best friend badly.

It was an honest mistake. I didn’t know the psycho was going to see it as a challenge and form a fixation on me. My answer was a firm resounding no.

But that didn’t seem to stop him. And when a group of drunk guys decided to follow me home one night after I left the Den, I had to admit, it paid to have a stalker who was six foot six inches of pure, tattooed muscle.

Angel Fury was something to behold, and now that he made it into my bed, I was afraid he’d slithered into other places. Like my heart. There was only one way to get rid of the man who would only cause me pain in the end.

Deny. Deny. Deny.

***

Angel

The first time I saw Giselle Vega, I knew I wanted her. The curvy goddess stood toe to toe with a monster like me and didn’t even bat an eyelash. It wasn’t every day I met a woman feisty enough to take me on.

She could keep spouting her pitiful lies, but I knew the truth. I felt it every time I touched her. She was crazy about me. And I wanted to keep her. I just had to get her addicted. So, I decided to lay in wait, like the Viper I was.

That was the thing about snakes. Sure, we hibernated at times, but we always struck when least expected.

My pretty Little Doll had no idea what was coming for her.

Pitiful Lies is the third in the contemporary romance series of connected standalones, Jersey Bad Boys. This series features familiar tropes such as enemies to lovers, forced proximity, arranged marriages, secret babies, and contains some violence and explicit scenes.

Desperate Measures

No act is too desperate when love is on the line.

Liam

After my sister took over the family business, there isn’t much left for me to do. But with O’Doyle Industries going legit, big sis has found something.

And I want no part of it.

Marrying the bratty daughter of a Russian billionaire, and former mobster, isn’t ideal. But when it comes to family, sometimes desperate measures are called for. My new wife isn’t hard on the eyes, but I have no intention of falling victim to her wiles.

It’s not personal, it’s just business.

Michaela

If my father knew why I married Liam O’Doyle, he’d have moved heaven and earth to stop me. But I owed his sister, the head of the O’Doyle family, my life, so, when she says I have to marry her brother to repay my debt, I do.

I just didn’t expect to feel this way about him.

Is it wrong to fall in love with my reluctant husband? Maybe. But it’s too late for second guessing. He thinks he can just ignore me. Like he can just walk away and leave me alone and untouched.

But Liam O’Doyle is about to find out some mergers are very personal.

Devious Lies: A Jersey Bad Boys Romance Alternate Cover Edition

They say two wrongs dont make a right. But what if they did?

Maria

It was always only a matter of time before my past would catch up with me. I knew it the second I lied on my job application, I was taking a huge risk. But anything was better than the crime family I was born into.

I knew I needed help, and I set my cap on the king only to be turned down. It was inevitable that someone from my old life was going to find me at the Vipers’ Den.

I was ready for it, but I didn’t expect him to step in. Luc Batiste, the Vipers’ Council, was my savior. He wasn’t loud and showy like the others. But it was always the quiet ones you had to watch out for.

Now, I owed him my life. But he wanted the truth, and that was more than I could give.

***

Luc

There was something about her that never seemed to fit. Maria didn’t belong behind a bar slinging beers and booze.

She was too good for that. Too good for me. So, I kept my distance.

But I was there when that customer got a little too familiar, and there was no way I was going to let it go.

In my world, there are rules, and once a Viper claimed a woman, she was his. I just claimed Maria in the loudest way possible. She thought she could hide from me. That her secrets are safe. But they weren’t.

Maria was mine now. That meant I owned every inch of her, including her past.

There was no getting away from it. No getting away from me. Sooner or later, Maria was going to have to accept it because I wasn’t letting her go.

Devious Lies is the second in the contemporary romance series of connected standalones, Jersey Bad Boys. This series features familiar tropes such as enemies to lovers, forced proximity, arranged marriages, secret babies, and contains some violence and explicit scenes.

Merciful Lies: A Jersey Bad Boys Romance Alternate Cover Edition

Lies can be merciful. It just depends on the why.

Anna

I knew the second I saw him, my life would change forever. When my brother offers me as payment to Nico Fury, the king of the Vipers, how can I refuse? Tattooed, built, and tall, he was the only man I saw when I walked into the room. It was like he occupied all the available space, sitting on his throne of blood, sweat, and lies.

Nerves assailed me, but I owed my brother too much to let anything happen to him. One night. That was all. But it would leave me wrecked. Actions always had consequences. Six months later, my brother was killed by a rival organization, and now they were after me.

There was only one place I could go to keep my unborn baby safe. I just hoped the king would be merciful.

***

Nico

Perfect things didn’t exist, at least not in my experience. But she was pretty close. I had her in my bed for one night, and I couldn’t shake the memory. No, I wasn’t meant to keep soft things like Anna Keller. My life belonged to my crew, and we were a vicious group. Hell, we weren’t called Vipers for nothing.

But she was different. She made me want, and I loved and hated her for it. Anna was light in a world of constant darkness. She was all warmth and beauty like no other. And I craved her like a drug.

Six months had passed since I took her in return for clearing her brother’s debt to me, but that man attracted trouble like honey did flies. It wasn’t long before I learned Sam Keller had gotten himself killed. Less than an hour later, Anna came back to me, on her knees, asking for sanctuary.

I knew the moment I saw the swell of her stomach she was carrying my baby. Anna thought coming here would protect her, but she was walking right into the Viper’s nest. Before I was finished, my little runaway would be begging me for mercy.

Merciful Lies is the first in the contemporary romance series of connected standalones, Jersey Bad Boys. This series features familiar tropes such as enemies to lovers, forced proximity, arranged marriages, secret babies, and contains some violence and explicit scenes.

She needed shelter from the storm. He just needed her.

Ellie Maxwell was a mother trying to protect her son from an abusive ex. Befriending the wives of wolves wasn’t something she sought, but it was something she needed.
It wasn’t easy to pick yourself up after someone tried so hard to knock you down. But with these ladies’ support, Ellie was on her way. That they were married to very powerful men didn’t hurt, either. There was just one problem.
Andres Ramirez.

Just when he thought he might go mad, she called with an outrageous proposition. Marry her to stop her ex? Yes. He could do that. Andres knew Ellie was it for him. This was his shot to prove it to her.
But did the laws of attraction still apply when only one of the players was wild for the other?
