1 y separately published work icon Up to Snow Good Bunny La Rue , Australia : Carmen Jenner , 2022 27126748 2022 single work novella romance

'Bossy, much older, and beastly enough to put me over his knee, Niklaus Norgaard is the kind of Daddy most Littles dream of. That is, until you’re shipped off to live in his Mountain McMansion and forced to do chores. Ugh!

'For a homeless Little on the run from the big bad biker club, you’d think sharing a Lumbersnack’s secluded cabin would be the perfect safe haven. But the biggest threat prowling this mountain isn’t bikers or lions or bears—it’s Daddy Niklaus.

'This grumpy mountain Daddy always gets what he wants, and he’s decided that’s me … but he’s not planning on keeping me just for the holidays. And me? Well, I’m up to snow good.

'Up to Snow Good is a holiday DDlg romance prequel novella in the Lumbersnack Daddies of Montana series. It features consenting adults and includes lots of spice, a significant age gap, a little suspense, a ton of bratty behavior, and a stern Daddy with a very twitchy palm.'

'Could you love a man who had become your ruin?

'Jett

'As the president of the Savage Saints MC, I’ve got a million goddamn problems. I thought the woman who cleans my clubhouse would be the least of them. But that’s just what Raine Levick is—a f*cking problem.

'My problem.

'Not because she’s sweet and likely gonna get herself killed without the club’s protection, but because I can’t stop thinking about her. I can’t stop wanting her.

'I’ve got a ring on my finger that belongs to someone else, but when the bodies pile up, staying away from her is a war I can’t win. Even if it breaks us both—and it will break us.

'Raine

'I fell for Jetthro King the second I laid eyes on him. He took me in and gave me a job, a family, and the club’s protection, but he broke my heart all in the same breath.

'Love, loss, ruin.

'That’s what falling for the MC President gets you.

'He’s a married man. I have no right to want him because I’ve been keeping secrets of my own and once Jett finds out, he may never look at me the same way again.'

'Secrets, betrayal, and lies—that’s what we Royals do best.

'Stella Hart is the hottest thing in country music. For ten years, she’s been Nashville’s darling. She’s pure, sweet, and a positive role model in an industry rife with scandals, sex, and sequins. Men want to own her, women want to be her—everyone wants a piece of her, and Stella? Well, she wants out.

'As the center for the Calgary Crushers, Van Ross isn’t afraid of the spotlight, but he doesn’t much like it either.

'With a nationwide manhunt, paparazzi dogging their every move, producers of a reality TV show baying for blood, and a record label desperate to see their “good girl” returned safely home, Van and Stella’s lives are snowballing out of control.

'While Van would like nothing more than to show the purest of them all how well he handles his er ... stick, Stella is no puck bunny. Nor is she as innocent as she’d have the world believe.

'With chemistry like theirs, tension runs high on and off the ice, but the end game is the same for both players: line up the puck, take the shot, and score. If only their hearts understood the play.

'Puck fame and fortune.

'Puck right and wrong.

'Puck love.'

Nor could they prepare him for Olivia Anders, a woman who’ll stop at nothing to get her way.

'As owner of Paws for Cause, Olivia is no stranger to the broken men and women who return home from war. She’s no stranger to broken dogs either. In fact, she’s made it her mission to pair the two and enrich both of their lives, but pairing ornery and aloof August Cotton will take some work.

'The last thing August wants is some pushy southern woman occupying his parents’ bed and breakfast and forcing him to open up about the hell he narrowly escaped, but that’s exactly what Olivia intends.

'They complete one another, and yet they can’t stand to be in the same room. Can Olivia make this hardened Marine feel again and finally show his heart the way back home?'

'Wounded, chewed up and spat out by war, Jake has only his dog, Nuke, PTSD, and survivor’s guilt to keep him company. He’s lived every day for nine years wondering when it will be his last, but there’s little comfort in the fact that he’s still standing when his platoon isn’t.

'Ellie Mason doesn’t have time for broken. She’s too busy trying to put food on the table. And keeping up with the demands of her autistic son, Spencer, is sometimes like fighting behind enemy lines.

But she’s loved damaged men before, and it left her wounded.

Set against the picturesque backdrop of Fairhope, Alabama, Ellie and Jake find themselves running toward the sound of chaos.

That’s why when she lands her dream job at a record company it seems like it’s too good to be true. Because it is. Slapped with an ultimatum, Ali must decide if facing the horror of the unemployment line is a fate worse than going on the road with four rowdy rockers hell-bent on making her life misery.

Until now. Until her. Now my mess is a woman who won’t save herself. I’ll fight like hell to save her, but at what price to the club? And at what cost to me?'
