Takeover / by Sola, Evelyn,author.;
TARA: I was supposed to be in charge. That was always my intention. Until that slick corporate raider, Ethan Bradford, clicked his fancy pen and poof! Just like that, I was under him, instead of on top. Rich and powerful men–especially arrogant, handsome ones–are all the same. I know exactly how to handle him, but when my father pulls rank and orders me to play nice, my plans of putting him in his place vanish. I know his type. I’ve been around men like him my entire life, but one chance meeting with him and his son, makes me question everything I thought I knew. ETHAN: When it comes to business, I always come out on top. Not even being a single dad can slow me down. I never let a good investment get away, and that includes Taylor Toys. After all, business is business, right? How was I supposed to know a friendly meeting would set me on fire? Tara Taylor is a spoiled princess, used to getting everything she wants. Sure, her good looks and smart mouth turn me on like nothing else. Despite her hostile stares, she triggered feelings I thought were long dead. She dares to judge me while she stands there in her designer shoes, looking more beautiful than any marketing exec I’ve ever met. Instead of being grateful that I saved her family’s legacy, she blames me for their failure. What was meant to be a formality turns into a game of wills. I never lose. Except this time, I find myself wanting her more than I want to win. I find myself wanting her to take over.

Done and done : an enemies to lovers, multicultural, plus size romance / by Soliz, Leonor,author.;
"Alex is insufferable, ridiculously hot, and my colleague. I can barely stand him… yet I can’t resist him. A one-night stand with my grumpy co-manager was no big deal when he planned to quit and leave town. Except he’s back, and not even my mom’s famous ropa vieja can make things better. Despite his cranky exterior and our endless bickering, he starts to draw me in all over again when he shows me a softer side. But I have to stay away. He was such a jerk when he returned and, to make things worse, I can’t stop thinking about how his lips felt on every soft curve of my body. I can’t let his rare cinnamon roll moments break through my walls, or let him confuse ceasefire with romance. No matter how many plans he puts in motion to get me alone. No matter how much he insists we are meant to fall in love." "Done and Done is an enemies to lovers, grumpy/sunshine romance, with a Latina plus-size main character, a cinnamon roll wrapped in barbwire hero, mental health rep, and banter hot enough to fan every flame. Done and Done is Book 2 of the Hollywood Love series, but it can be read as a standalone."--

Read by Mela Lee.With Christmas around the corner, Ramona Tucker is desperate to get away. She has been lying to her family about her engagement to Malik, her (ex) fiancé. But breakups are fickle, and Ramona is convinced that she can make her pretend wedding real again, but only if she can avoid everyone discovering her secret at her mother's over-the-top Christmas Eve party.

If she doesn't rediscover that magic, and sell a painting, soon, , it will be her family's home she's selling instead. The two women swap homes, just in time, thanks to some careful planning by Ramona's best friend and a sturdy nudge from Chelsea's gallerist godmother. Ramona's Malibu dreams of sun and surf are interrupted as her first night brings an unwelcome stranger to her door, making her question who she can trust, the meddling neighbor Joan, or Jay, the handsome beachside fitness instructor with a secret of his own. Chelsea, desperate for Ramona to stay, hides what she knows, even if that means jeopardizing her budding connection with Racharming Carlos, whose dreams for his future could be the very key to unlock Chelsea from the weight of her past.
