Tribulation Road: A Red Hot Treats Story
Page 5
A chorus of cheers went up. It was their way, to push forward while remembering those who came before them fondly. Doing anything else would break them.
Jag wrapped an arm around her waist, pulling her to his side as they made their way into the crowd. This respite was for their people. Tomorrow, they would launch headfirst into the search for more of their family line. Revenge would wait until they were ready, and she knew the hunt had just begun.

Kissin' Hell by Jodi Redford
There are two certainties in life soul collector and hellhound Jericho Stryker knows too well—Death never takes a holiday, and women are typically more trouble than they’re worth. That goes double for his personal nemesis and regular pain in his backside, Lola McKenna. Sure, the luscious little hellcat gets his blood boiling in more ways than one, but some scratches are best left un-itched. That determination is strained to the max when a botched soul acquisition job lands him on the same case as Lola.
Fetching a stubborn soul from a haunted bordello should be a piece of cake. Unfortunately for Lola, she has to deal with Jericho horning in on her bounty. Attempting to keep her cool and her wits around her sinfully sexy adversary? Easier said than done. Especially when she finds herself locked overnight with Jericho. Not strangling him before sunrise? A faint possibility. Ignoring the lusty, depraved sexual fantasies he awakens in her? A snowball’s chance in hell of happening. But worst of all is the very real possibility that he could steal the one thing she most fears losing to him—her heart.

All Flash No Cash by Randi Alexander
When Deadwood, South Dakota bar owner CJ Overton hires Pete Gonally to paint a motorcycle for a charity giveaway, she expects him to do it her way. After all, he’s a small-time rancher, and graphic arts is just his hobby. But Pete comes back with his own ideas, and sparks fly as tension builds between them. The only way to relieve the pressure is one hot night in her bed. Just one. But then Pete wants more.
Pete lets CJ think he’s just a farm boy, but working on the oil field for years, he’s accumulated a small fortune; more than enough capital to buy his family ranch plus thousands of acres surrounding it. CJ’s dream future includes selling the bar, leaving Deadwood, and traveling the world. Attaching herself to a hayseed like Pete would only ruin her chances. How can Pete convince CJ that falling for a “dirt-poor farmer” will make her happier than anything she’d ever find outside of South Dakota?
