SCARLETT COLE
The Preload series

Agent: Louise Fury
2017–2018. Finished books available.

This dark contemporary romance series follows PRELOAD, quickly ascending the charts as the most
explosive rock band of their generation. But fame has done little to overcome the traumas of their past.
Traumas that have the power to decimate the band, and themselves, unless love can heal them first.

Read the first book in the series, JORDAN RECLAIMED, where the
band’s bassist pursues a damaged ballerina. In the second book,

girl he’s ever loved back into each other’s lives. Finally, LENNON
REBORN asks the question, can a man who despises his life and a
woman who desperately needs to live find the answers, and love,
with each other?

               “I think by the end of this series I will be done with this trope because I don’t think
              anybody will write a better series than this, if JORDAN RECLAIMED is anything to go

                “JORDAN RECLAIMED is not a light read by any means, but it is well written and
              emotional. I enjoyed the characters and emotional journey of the plot to redemption
                                     and acceptance.” —The Book Disciple

2017–2018. Finished books available.

Deep Cover
Ex-Navy SEAL Cabe Moss can disappear in plain sight. He sees links in
everything, filing every little detail away for future reference as he
fades further into the background. He can remember the color of an
assailant’s eyes, the face of his first kill, and the last time he kissed his
fiancée (two years, one month, eleven days, and eight hours ago, the
day before she left for Afghanistan, and thanks to a roadside IED,
never came back). Which is why the signs are telling him that the
recent cases he has worked on with his brothers at Eagle Securities
are not only connected, but the tip of the iceberg. He knows money is
being laundered. The question is how?

F.B.I. Special Agent Amy Murray knows there are thirty-nine stairs up
to her office, nineteen rows of roof tiles on the building opposite her              An Amazon Best Book of the
apartment, and that the reason she has no student debt is because                             Month
she counted cards in blackjack though college. Growing up in Las
Vegas with a World Series of Poker champion for a father, it was to
be expected. So when the chance arises to act as a dealer in a casino
suspected of allowing money laundering on its premises, Amy takes
the job. But it lands her straight into the path of the deadly
handsome warrior Cabe. As the two work together, their explosive
attraction begins to lead to something deeper. But before risking
their lives, he needs to risk his heart...

                                                                                Also in this series:

Sexy and emotionally captivating, the Second Circle Tattoos
novels will attract fans of Jaci Burton and Laura Kaye.

The Second Circle Tattoos novels follow a group of tattoo artists that find love—and danger—in the
steamy Miami heat. In THE STRONGEST STEEL, after changing her identity to hide from her violent ex-
boyfriend, Harper Connelly meets tattoo rockstar and owner of Second Circle, Trent Andrews, who inks
over the scars on her back—but her attacker returns and threatens her new life, new love, and newfound
strength. In THE FRACTURED HEART, Trent’s right-hand man Brody “Cujo” Matthews must find common
ground with Harper’s best friend, Andrea “Drea” Caron, in order to plan their wedding, but hatred
explodes into passion after Drea witnesses a young woman’s abduction and must rely on Cujo to find the
way to the truth. In THE PUREST HOOK, Second Circle’s office manager Pixie is focused on laying low and
building a good life for herself, until Dred Zander, the rugged lead singer of a popular band, rocks her
world—and ends up bringing her dark past under the media’s harsh lights. Finally, in THE DARKEST LINK,
Reid Kennedy never escaped the guilt of introducing his sister Harper to the man who later attacked her,
and gives in to a hot one-night stand with flirty tattoo artist Lia Carlisle; but Lia’s political family and Reid’s
reunion with Harper lift secrets to the surface and a world of betrayal and lies threatens to pull them all
under.

Spending a month filming a reality TV show with your ex is no
picnic. Especially when you’ve signed a contract stating that the
two of you will not, under any circumstances, have romantic
relations while filming.

Leanne Simmons and Callum Davidson never had an easy
relationship. From enemies to lovers and back to enemies, they’ve
been on again/off again for years. Things come to a head when
Callum gets into an altercation with a rival for Leanne’s affections.
Their management decide enough is enough and give them both an
ultimatum: sign the contract or leave the show.

Unwilling to give up their livelihoods, they sign on the dotted line.
But Callum thinks it’s only a matter of time before they break the
agreement, while Leanne is determined to see it through.

Michaela Olsson has found her soulmate in James Khan. There are
just a few teeny, tiny problems…

One, he’s her boss, two, he’s too old for her, and three, well, he
happens to be engaged to somebody else.

Matters are only made worse when James asks her to move into his
newly purchased house to supervise the renovations. Working
together every day is bad enough, but living in a house he owns is
far more intimate than she expected. Then, when James decides to
call off his wedding without any explanation whatsoever, Michaela
wonders if perhaps her feelings for him aren’t as one-sided as she
thought.

Soon Michaela learns she might’ve had more to do with James
calling off his engagement than she could’ve possibly imagined.

Happy-Go-Lucky
World English: L.H. Cosway
Agent: Louise Fury
August 2019. Finished books available.

For fans of romantic comedies and office romances.

Every workplace has that one person you don’t want to mess with.

At James & Peterson Investigations, that would be Cameron Grant:
sullen, grouchy, intimidating, and sexy as hell. He can make your
soul wither with a single disapproving glare. And he never, ever
socialises with his co-workers.

This is why Maisie Wilkins, happy-go-lucky ray of sunshine, can’t
fathom why Cameron finally decided to show up at their annual
office Christmas party. Every year he received an invite, and every
year he failed to attend. But not this year.

Curious as to why he’s there, Maisie can’t resist sitting next to
Cameron. Before she knows it, she’s had one too many drinks and
is drunkenly hailing a cab back to his place. Office party flings are
not something she normally does, but despite his intimidating
character, Cameron has a charm she can’t resist. Or maybe it was
just those five gin and tonics blurring her judgement.

Whatever the reason, Maisie now has to navigate the awkward,
tension filled waters of sharing an office with someone she’s slept
with.

2018. Finished books available.

In this era of social media, we all pretend.

We pretend to be prettier, happier, more confident versions of ourselves,
but not Ellen Grant. She takes it to a whole other level and pretends to be
someone else entirely. Adopting the persona of a woman far more
interesting is the only way she can break free of the socially awkward,
romantically inept girl she really is.

And it’s all going swimmingly until she catches the eye of a man at her
local coffee shop. Julian Fairchild has been noticing her for a while and he’s
fascinated. Little does he know, the woman he thinks he’s obsessed with is a fake.

 It’s not long before Julian discovers Ellen’s true identity. However, he has a proposition. If she really wants
 to pretend, he can introduce her to a world where she can be anyone she wants. Ellen is intrigued by the
 prospect, and, blind to the nature of Julian’s profession as a male escort, closes her eyes and lets him lead
 the way.

 Can Ellen keep her feelings in check while discovering a new world of thrills and excitement? And will Julian
 let it show that he isn’t entertaining Ellen purely out of the goodness of his heart?

Killer Queen

Come inside the Glamour Patch club to see the star of our show, Miss Vivica
Blue.

Do you want to read my diary? I can be whatever you want me to be: boy,
girl, a little bit of both.

So, who are we left with? Ah, a fine collection of curious souls. I want to tell
you a tale of love, because those are the most glorious kind. I want to tell you
about real love, a love that transcends labels and gender stereotypes.

The moment I first laid eyes on my Freda I knew that we were kindred. Well,
okay, I also knew I wanted to get into her pants, but that’s beside the point.
My world was a grey place. Then she came along and patches of color began
to spring forth.

Love is not about how we appear on the outside, it’s about the soul within.

 Painted Faces

 Come forth with an open mind, for an unconventional tale of love…

 Dublin native Freda Wilson considers herself an acquired taste. She doesn't
 have the best track record with first impressions, which is why she gets a
 surprise when her new neighbor Nicholas takes a shine to her.

 Nicholas is darkly handsome, funny and magnetic, and Freda feels like her
 black and white existence is plunged into a rainbow of color when she's
 around him. He is a travelling cabaret performer, but Freda doesn't know
 exactly what that entails until the curtains pull back on his opening night.
 She is gobsmacked and entirely intrigued to see him take to the stage in drag.

 When Nicholas asks her if she would like to become his show assistant, she soon finds herself immersed in a
 world of wigs, make-up and high heels, surrounded by pretty men and the temptation of falling for her
 employer…

Claire has helped plan every detail of her best friend’s wedding and
when there’s a last minute change to the crew of groomsman, she
completely panics. First, the wedding party should be an even number.
Second, Tom Harrington (the new groomsman) hates her.

And for good reason.

But Tom didn’t always hate Claire. At one point, he thought there was
something between them. Until there wasn’t. Now when he sees
Claire again at the pre-wedding clambake, she immediately triggers
emotions he hasn’t felt in seven years ...like uncontrollable
annoyance… and uncontrollable desire. They’ve always pushed each
other’s buttons and in the close confines of a wedding party, they
can’t avoid each other: for better or for worse.

Amidst the flying champagne corks, non-flying butterflies and hordes
of puppies, can a small town veterinarian and a Manhattan fashion
publicist reconcile a bitter history and achieve a happily ever after of
their own?

A Regency era version of Cinderella.

Following the death of her father, the Honorable Titania Stanhope
arrives in London to find that he has left all of his fortune to his
mistress, leaving Titania and her younger brother penniless. Armed

poor—and devastatingly attractive—Earl of Oakley.

Edwin Worthington, Earl of Oakley, has just returned to London to
discover he has massive wealth. But he’s wary of ladies’ interest
beyond his person, so he hides his wealth under his scuffed boots and
shabby clothing. When he meets Titania, he is intrigued; she is
intelligent, quick, and beautiful. Could she be his countess? But then
he discovers her purpose in being in London, and remains
                                                                              RIGHTS SOLD:

                          Keeping the country in line is only half Alexander’s worries, because keeping his
                          family in check is impossible. As the Royal family comes under fire for a number of
                          controversial decisions, he guards a secret that could destroy them from within.

Sugar Street
World English: Freshwater Ink
Agent: Louise Fury.
August 2018. Finished books available.

In the idyllic enclave of Sugar Mills, four women are struggling
to keep their marriages alive and kicking in the hectic whirl of
middle-class suburbia. Enter a gorgeous young tennis pro.
Could a little well-orchestrated jealousy put the spark back in
their suburban marriages, or burn everything they’ve worked
for to the ground?

Playful, funny women’s fiction with more than a dash of
romance, SUGAR STREET is a story about marriage,
friendship and the wild hopes beneath quiet desperation.

                                         A stand alone novel

 “[Pullen] systematically dismantles the contentment of her very comfortable characters while also
 keeping the story bouncing with zippy, involving dialogue and a fine sense of dramatic pacing. A glitzy
 romp that features suburban wives making unconventional—and haphazardly disastrous—attempts to
 break out of the safe patterns of their lives.” —Kirkus Reviews

 “M.J. Pullen’s latest is a gem, one that will make you laugh, think, and reach for your partner.” —Ann
 Garvin, USA Today-bestselling author of I Like You Just Fine When You’re Not Around

 “SUGAR STREET sucked me in and wouldn't let me go until the very last page. If you’re looking for a
 riveting, rollicking, heartwarming story with a core of steel, don't miss this gem!” —Emily Carpenter,
 bestselling author of Burying the Honeysuckle Girls and Every Single Secret

 “A story about midlife, marriage, and the risks we take for love… I couldn’t read this one fast enough!”
 —Kimberly Brock, award-winning author of The River Witch

                                                                                                            51
The Marriage Pact
World English: Thomas Dunne Books
Agent: Louise Fury.
2015. Finished books available.

In the vein of Emily Giffin, this debut launches a charming series about a group
of thirty-somethings making surprising discoveries about friendship, love, and
happily-ever-after.

Life is not what Marci Thompson expected it to be at thirty years old. But things
get even more complicated when a decade-old cocktail napkin calls upon a long-
forgotten marriage pact. Marci’s almost-love from college re-enters her life and
blurs the lines between heartache and happiness as she faces the most difficult
choice of her life.

“Pullen’s characters are realistic, and the dialogue is funny, making this an
excellent choice for fans of early Jane Green, Jennifer Weiner, and Emily Giffin.”
—Booklist

Regrets Only

Following a freak accident, event planner Suzanne Hamilton’s near-perfect life

person responsible for her accident might be in her catalog of past lovers.

“A deftly written and captivating tale of how our best laid plans often go
astray… Don’t miss this sexy and engrossing romp!” —Cherry Adair, New York
Times-bestselling author
