If love is an addiction, your first love is the first hit.
How many of you remember your first love?
Because falling in love for the first time…I remember that. And that’s the thing about your first love—we all have a love story.
But this isn’t a love story.
This is a life story.
The good.
The bad.
The heartache.
It’s all here.
Love is truly a battlefield…
Love is scary, and anyone who tells you otherwise is lying. When you love someone wholeheartedly, you leave yourself open to being destroyed…and that’s what I did, what I still do even though I know better.
But it doesn’t make a difference.
The best kind of love doesn’t make sense. But that doesn’t mean it doesn’t hurt.
This one-in-a-million story is mine, and if you take anything away from this book, it would be to never be afraid to love.
So, let me introduce myself. You may call me Z.
Buckle up, besties, because this will be a bumpy ride.
Love hits you when you least expect it.
Are you ready for the fall?

DIRTY DIX
A Hard Love Romance Series: #1
By Monica James
Come, sit. Tell me your deepest, darkest secrets. I dare you.
My name is Dr. Dixon Mathews, and I’m New York’s finest shrink. For $500 an hour, I take great pleasure in listening to people unload their dirty little secrets because the best secrets are the ones left untold.
I’m smart, cocky, and easy on the eyes. But I’m no Prince Charming.
I don’t do relationships. However, that’s all about to change, thanks to two different women who truly represent sin.
Who will I choose?
I know who I should choose, but I never said I was the hero of this story or even the good guy. And besides, who wants to be good when it feels so good being bad?
My tale isn’t for the fainthearted or those who want a happily ever after. So if you’re game, strap yourself in and expect the unexpected.
But don’t say I didn’t warn you.

THE HUNT
A Hard Love Romance Spin-Off
My name is Hunter O’Shea, and I’ve done something stupid—I’ve gone and fallen in love.
Who would have thought New York’s most notorious bachelor would meet his match. But Mary “Lamb” Mitts has the power to bring me to my knees…it’s just too bad she hates my guts. But that’s okay because I hate hers, too.
And that makes me want her all the more.
The fiery redhead stirs something in me that I can’t explain, and when we’re forced to work together, it can only lead to trouble…of the good kind.
I can’t get her out of my head. The only solution is to get back in the game and forget she exists. That theory is great—too bad I don’t want anyone else.
I…just…want…her.

With secrets unraveled, my need for vengeance grows stronger every day. However, ten years is a long time. People have changed. I have changed. But the one thing that remains untouched is my love for Babydoll—I love her…even if she doesn’t feel the same.
I will take back what’s mine.

And my girl.
Every monster is scared of somethin’…and that somethin’ is me.
No more hiding in the shadows because I’m huntin’ you…Father.

Tell me your deepest, darkest secrets. I dare you.Addiction comes down to one simple, primitive concept. Desire.
My name is Dr. Dixon Mathews, and I’m New York’s finest shrink. For $500 an hour, people tell me their darkest, most sinful secrets.
My own addiction? Sex.
I might be certified in solving other people’s problems, but not mine –
I know I’m a lost cause. I don’t do relationships. I don’t even do the same woman twice.
But that’s all about to change, thanks to two entirely different women who awaken my deepest desires.
Who will I choose?
I know who I should choose, but I never said I was the hero of this story, or even the good guy. And besides, who wants to be good, when it feels so good being bad?
My tale isn’t for the faint-hearted. If you’re game, strap yourself in and expect the unexpected. But don’t say I didn’t warn you…
