Unbroken — Maya Banks

Three stories from the pen of Maya Banks!

UNDERSTOOD: Jake Turner committed the ultimate mistake of falling in love with his best friend's wife. The distance he puts between them costs both him and Ellie Matthews dearly. Jake will never forgive himself for not seeing what a bastard his friend was. Now that Ellie is free from her nightmare, Jake waits, needing and wanting. He'll be there when Ellie is ready to spread her wings.

OVERHEARD: Gracie Evans is a woman tired of the men in her life not satisfying her in bed. She's had a string of boyfriends, but none of them have come close to satisfying the vivid fantasies she has. Two weeks before Valentine's Day, she breaks up with her latest boyfriend after a night of lackluster sex. When her good friend, Luke Forsythe, overhears her talking to their friend Michelle about what she really wants, he's stunned. And very turned on. Gracie thinks there isn't a man alive who can satisfy her in bed. Luke aims to prove her wrong.

UNDENIED: Payton Ricci is the last person Wes Hoffman ever expected or wanted to see again. After the disastrous sexual experience between them twelve years ago, he was only too happy to put the whole episode behind him. After all, he's come a long way since that awkward encounter between two gawky teenagers, and his ego needs no reminder. The night he sees Payton, a very sexy grown up Payton, in Zack's Bar and Grill, he's mortified by this blast from the past. Payton harbors no such reservations about seeing Wes again, and it's clear she wouldn't mind catching up on old times. However, Wes can't get over his mental block where she's concerned. But that's nothing a blindfold and a little mad seduction scheme can't fix, and Payton is a very determined woman.
