Take it off
Where do you put your service revolver when all you’re wearing are spandex briefs? This is just one of the challenges facing DEA agent Jason McBain when he goes undercover as pro-wrestler Jack the Stripper. His assignment is to find out who is distributing steroids but he never thought his first suspect would be the beautiful medical assistant who fires his blood to the boiling point. The minute he feels Sandy’s soft hands on his body, all thoughts of the mission leave his mind. He might not know much about wrestling, but he’s pretty sure he wants to body-slam the petite blond into his bed.

Take it all off
Sandy Ryan's first sighting of The Stripper will be seared into her memory forever: six feet of hot, muscled male wielding a hot pink stiletto heel as a lethal weapon against an infuriated wrestler in a headlock. But she has to keep her interest in The Stripper purely professional—mixing business and pleasure is a bad idea. She knows from personal experience. So what if she wants to jump in the ring and help Jason tear his clothes off? It would be easier if there weren’t something strangely vulnerable in the cocky wrestler’s mesmerizing blue-green eyes; something that tugs at her heartstrings; something that tells her to take a chance on…

“White creates heroes that are exceptionally likeable, and all of her characters become friends you hate to part with at the end.” —Romantic Times BOOKreviews Magazine, 4 1/2 Stars

Excerpt

  "You hang with The Stripper because you're amazed by my lack of inhibition...and my pecs."  Jack the Stripper crooked an eyebrow and continued, "See, apparently, you like touching me."  He closed the space between them and she couldn't move.  "All over," he whispered.  "Running your hands around my butt, then you touch me in front...like you're fascinated by my..."

  Was that her heart pounding in Sandy's ears or someone banging on the wall in first aid behind her?n first aid behind her?

  "You need any practice with the rubbing part?" he rasped.

  "No, I'll manage."  She swallowed hard.

  "Then, after you do the touching stuff, I kiss you sweetly on the lips."  And he leaned forward and did just that.

Ring Around My Heart

Dorchester Publishing

Named Best Contemporary Romance
by Romantic Times Magazine (2004)

Alexandra Hayes couldn't decide which she hated more: the skintight silver lamé shorts encasing the powerful thighs of the hulking wrestler who stood before her, or the pink heart that stretched across his firm buns. Loverboy Luke needed an image makeover, all right. And she desperately needed this job. But how would she possibly turn the sport's biggest badboy into the hero the league craved? Especially when looking at his bare chest made her want to take him down on the mats herself!

Luke prided himself on his reputation of sweeping women off their feet and giving them a night to remember. His appearance was his armor,protecting him from the pain of his past. Lately, though, whenever he looked into the amber eyes of his new publicist, his concentration went from headlocks to liplocks, from the wrestling ring to a ring that could really change his life—for Alexandra was taking an unbreakable hold on his heart.

“Wrestling romantic? Absolutely! Got a Hold on You delivers a potent punch of humor and romance.” —Romantic Times (Top Pick)

Life on the ropes
When Frankie McGee told her Uncle Joe she’d do anything to help save the family business, she wasn’t exactly thinking of dressing up in a fur-trimmed bikini and four-inch stilettos. Nor had she planned that the best kiss of her life would be with wrestler Black Jack Hudson – a veritable wall of muscle and masculinity. But now her fate was sealed: Frankie the accountant by day; Tatianna the Tigress by night. Was it possible Jack could ever love them both?

Love in the ring
Jack wanted nothing more than to retire to his cabin in the mountains with a championship belt. Then a whip-wielding hellion who knew nothing about the sport clotheslined him with her long legs and luscious lips. Pinned by her wide-eyed gaze, Jack knew he’d been outmaneuvered. If only the league’s straitlaced accountant would give him a break, he might be able to discover the true identity of his tempting tigress and get a hold of the one thing that had always eluded his grasp: true love.

“This book rocks! Charming, fresh, funny—I couldn’t put it down!”
— New York Times Bestselling author, Suzanne Brockmann

Practice Makes Mr. Perfect
Romantic Times Reviewer’s Choice Nominee for Best Traditional Romance (2003)

Teach me how to . . .
Police detective Brett Callahan thought he needed love lessons to lure the woman of his dreams to the altar, so he convinced his neighbor, Josie Matthews, to play teacher. But none of his teachers had been as sweet and seductive as Josie, and none of their lessons had evoked passion like this!

Josie saw no harm in giving Brett a few pointers on the art of courtship. After all, she was immune to his attractions. But after a few “practice” dates, she longed for Brett in ways she hadn’t realized—and that scared her. For Brett was off-limits, and she couldn’t risk giving her heart unless she could convince him to make her his bride!
