Who accidentally has a one-night stand with her alumni band director?


Yep. Me.
I know what you’re thinking. Whoops! I slipped on some valve oil and accidentally landed on his baton during a rousing chorus of Stars and Stripes Forever.
That’s not quite how it went.
But the alumni band director is really, really skilled with that baton, if you know what I mean.
So what am I supposed to do now, as I walk into the morning’s rehearsal — three feet from the podium because of course I play piccolo — and find the guy I ghosted on this morning … right there, smiling at me like he remembers exactly what tempo I prefer?
He’s perfect. Too perfect.
He’s a widowed dad of two adorable little kids that — oh, by the way — he forgot to mention.
But I also haven’t mentioned the seventeen-year-old I live with, either. He’s not my boyfriend. I’m his guardian. He’s autistic and non-speaking, and he’s been my whole world since I was nineteen.
I want Mr. Band Director. He wants me. Nothing — not the secrecy, not the awkwardness, not the 500 miles between his life and mine — will make this chemistry stop.
Except for three pesky little things: the secrets we’re hiding from each other. Three very human secrets.
I’ve never felt so seen before. He gets me. I get him. But we’re buried in responsibilities and loyalties that get in the way. When I’m with him, I can play. Really play.
And not just music.
He can’t quit his job and move his kids to be close to me. I can’t uproot a fragile teen who needs round-the-clock care and is still mourning his parents. The odds are stacked against us.
But who ever let that get in the way of love?

New Release ~ Break Me ~ by ~ Tara Conrad

 

 

  ♦ ♦ ♦

A dark, emotional MC romance inspired by Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Raven.”

Raven Sutter was never meant to be mine.

She was my best friend’s little sister.

Off-limits. Untouchable.

She walked into my life with golden hair, blue eyes, and a quiet defiance that ruined every promise I’d ever made.

I tried to keep my distance.

She made that impossible.

As a mechanic for the Blackwater MC, I’ve lived my life in the shadows.

Raven became the only person who made the darkness feel bearable.

The one person who saw the man beneath the silence and the bruises.

Our love was fierce.

Forbidden.

A little reckless and completely inevitable.

This is the story of how we fell.

Of how she changed me.

Of how loving her became the most beautiful and devastating chapter of my life.

Before the grief.

Before the ghosts.

Before the darkness—

there was her.

When a vicious assassin is banished from the only life he’s ever known, he starts over only to be tempted by the goddaughter he hasn’t seen in almost twenty years.

Hades
Vindictive, malicious, some would even say sadistic…
I couldn’t argue with any of those assessments. We are who we are. I’m a vengeful assassin who will stop at nothing to make those who wronged me pay. And I’m thirsty for revenge.
Eighteen years ago, I took the fall for a man who was like a brother to me. I even vowed to protect his daughter by becoming her godfather— and then he betrayed me.
Two decades later, his daughter, now a stunning woman, strolls into my life, having no idea who I am or what I’m capable of. Capri takes an unhealthy interest in me, the older and dangerous man, and I don’t do anything to discourage her. I welcome her obsession because it suits me.
When her infatuation with me grows stronger, I prove just how vindictive, malicious, and sadistic I really am. Is she the opportunity I need to enact my revenge against her father or is she the reason I finally let this vendetta go?

In the remote Montana wilderness, a child has vanished—and time is running out.

When a fugitive accused of murdering his ex-wife disappears into the Montana backcountry with his nine-year-old daughter, FBI Hostage Rescue Team sniper Sebastian Black leads an intensive manhunt, battling snowstorms and brutal terrain in a race against the clock.
National Park Service ranger and search-and-rescue specialist Nora Deacon knows the mountains better than anyone. Alongside her K9 partner, Chance, she’s determined to find the missing girl. Nora is achingly familiar with what can happen when a child falls into the wrong hands.
As the search narrows, Sebastian and Nora are forced to work together in a fight for survival as much as a rescue operation. The closer they get to their target, the more dangerous the situation becomes—and the harder it is to ignore the attraction burning between them.
With a blizzard closing in, a desperate fugitive growing increasingly unstable, and a young girl’s life hanging in the balance, they’ll have to risk everything to bring her home alive—even if it means confronting secrets they’ve both worked hard to bury.

My marriage made me famous. Now it’s falling apart, threatening to take my career down with it.
For years, thousands of women have followed my marriage blog, looking to me for advice on how to keep their relationships happy. They think my husband and I have the perfect life.
They have no idea he has cheated on me. Or that our marriage is hanging by a thread.
And they can never find out. My career, and the book deal built on my picture-perfect marriage, depends on it.
Needing to escape, I leave Los Angeles behind and rent a secluded cottage in Gray Pines, a picture-perfect lakeside town. It’s only temporary. Somewhere quiet to clear my head, finish my book and decide whether my marriage can still be saved.
At first, it feels like exactly what I need.
Until I realize something is wrong.
I come home to find the cottage door unlocked, even though I’m certain I locked it. Upstairs, my bed has been moved. Then a mysterious pink slip of paper appears with a number written on it. Another appears with a lower number. And then another. The numbers keep falling, like a countdown.
And the friendly locals who welcomed me so warmly seem to know far more about me than they should.
I tell myself I’m imagining it. That heartbreak and exhaustion are making me paranoid.
Then my kitchen window is smashed to pieces, and I know immediately that I may be in danger.
I came here because I thought I needed time away to heal and write my book.
Now I’m beginning to wonder if I was brought here for a reason.
And what happens when the pink slips reach one?

Release Date: September 14, 2026 
Lizzy
One reckless night. One unforgettable taste of him.
The moment I broke my rules and gave in, I knew I was playing with fire. His smoldering cerulean eyes and the way he whispered my name? Irresistible. He didn’t want forever—but I needed more.
Now, he’s back, acting like the boyfriend dreams are made of. Sweet. Attentive. Protective. Maybe even ready to love me the way I crave.
But how do I trust a man who’s made walking away into an art form?

Is a second chance worth the burn?

Josh
I left her. Not because I didn’t want her—but because I wanted her too much.
Marriage. Kids. The white picket fence. I told myself I couldn’t be that man… because I’m my father’s son. And he broke my mother in ways I can never forget.

So I let Lizzy go.

But fate had other plans. Now I’m here, ready to fight for her, to protect what’s mine—with teeth, fists, and fury if I have to.
She says she doesn’t trust me.

But I’ll prove it—one kiss, one promise, one heated night at a time

“Jesus, darlin’, what the hell did you do to me?” Josh says, lying beside me in bed, completely satisfied after our sex marathon.

“I could say the same thing, blue eyes,” I say, glancing over at him and seeing an evil glint in his eye. That look has one meaning right now. I barely finish the thought before his lips devour mine, then trail down my neck and back to my mouth like he can’t make up his mind where he wants his lips.

“Why can’t I ever get enough of you?” he moans between kisses.

I pull him closer so I can wrap my legs around his waist, wanting him back inside me as quickly as possible. It’s besides the fact that we just finished round four in less than twenty-four hours.

I feel the same way he does—I can’t get enough of him either, which is why I need to talk to him about our relationship and where it’s going. I know he doesn’t do long-term relationships, but we’ve been together on and off for years. I know he doesn’t have anyone else when we’re off—thanks to Dee’s big mouth for that tidbit.

“Darlin’, stop thinking and start feeling,” he says, moving his mouth down my chest, teasing me by kissing all around my breast but not pulling my nipple in his mouth.

I moan, “Fuck, Josh.”

“That’s what I want you to do,” he whispers before pulling my nipple into his mouth, causing me to lift off the bed. I swear he could make me orgasm just from playing and sucking on my breasts. I grip the sheets to stabilize myself, even though he’s going to do something else to make my body jump and tingle. The man never disappoints in the bedroom.

His accent deepens the more he’s turned on. “I need to taste you,” he says, moving farther down my body, dropping open-mouth kisses along the way.

“Y-you did that already,” I stutter, barely able to talk since my body is throbbing for release.

“That was yesterday. It’s 1:02 a.m. A new day.” He lightly brushes his tongue along the length of my pussy and moans, “Best fucking breakfast.”

Whimpering, I call his name again to encourage him to quit stalling and give me my damn orgasm. I can feel it starting to build already. Of course, he does all kinds of things right with his tongue. I feel his fingers enter me while he sucks on that bundle of nerves, completely setting me off.

“We’re just gettin’ started, darlin’.” He grabs a condom off the nightstand and rolls it on.

He’s everywhere. His lips. His hands. His weight enveloping me. I absorb every bit of him. Relish him. Those shimmering blue eyes lock with mine while he moves inside me. I feel him clear down to the depths of my soul. I don’t know how long we gaze into each other’s eyes or how long we’re wrapped in each other. I don’t care either. This is a moment I want to freeze and relive again and again.

He breaks our gaze by kissing my neck and moaning my name as I wrap my legs around his, pulling him closer. With each roll of his hips, I climb higher and higher as I dig my fingers deeper into his glorious back muscles.

I moan, “Josh, kiss me.”

His lips are on mine in seconds, languidly moving in sync with mine. Our kiss quickly turns desperate and rough, like we’re both grasping for more. Lord, I need more from him. All of him. His kindness. Those caring blue eyes on me. Watching me. That sexy smirk. His concern and support. His flirtations. His strength. His open heart—loving and completely unguarded.

“Darlin’, catch up with me,” he says, leaning his forehead on mine. Those cerulean eyes are filled with love, begging me. He shifts my hips, shooting me straight to the stars.

“Oh fuuuuccccckk, Josh,” I scream, pushing my hips into him while the rest of my body tightens and flies at the same time.

“That’s it, darlin’, tighten around my dick,” he breathes into my neck before his arms grip me and his hips still. We lay still, breathing each other in.

“Is it sad that I don’t want to move? I want to stay in this moment for as long as I can,” he whispers, running his nose along my jaw.

I graze my fingertips graze down his back, causing goosebumps to appear. I respond, “I feel the same.”

Sadness fills his eyes. He gives me a quick peck on the lips before making his way to the bathroom. When he comes out, I hop up so I can pee and clean up.

When I come out, I watch Josh lying on the bed with the sheet covering his lower body and one arm beside him while the other is across our pillows. His eyes are closed, but I doubt he’s actually sleeping. A satisfied smile crosses his face as he says, “Get your ass in this bed with me instead of ogling me.” He doesn’t have to tell me twice.

Life feels pretty damn perfect. The man of my dreams is holding me after hours of marathon sex. I want—no, need—this every day of my life. This bliss.

I snuggle closer as he squeezes me and places a kiss on my head. I hum and, without thought, say, “This should be our forever. I never want to leave your arms.”

They say angels only exist in heaven.
They’re wrong. Some are born into hell and learn to survive.

I was seventeen when I saved a beautiful stranger from dying in an abandoned garden. He promised to kill the villain in my nightmares. Instead, he shattered my life.

At twenty-three, I’m still running from the evil in my past, and the stranger who betrayed me. He’s back. Colder, and in a position to destroy me again.

I hide in a gilded mansion where elites play, falling for a masked man who makes my body come alive.

But some prisoners earn favors.
And some saviors keep deadly promises.

𝐖𝐞𝐬
They say monsters are made, not born.
They’re right.

Cruelty came from my father. Survival came from the girl who healed me when I was meant to die. She was a glimmer in the darkness, then she betrayed me. Or so I was told.

Now she’s standing in front of me, a grown woman with haunted eyes and a hatred for me I don’t understand.

She doesn’t know I’m the man behind the mask, bringing her desires to life. She doesn’t know I own her world.

I was once saved by an angel, and I failed her. This time, I’ll keep my promise and reveal who I truly am.
Even if it makes her hate me more.
