About this ebook series

I’ve never had a problem getting women on my arm or in my bed.

Except for Jenna Montgomery. 

She’s the woman I want. The woman I’ve craved my whole life. But she’s been my best friend since childhood, and that’s a line I can’t cross.

 

Until one wicked night changes everything. 

 

Now all bets are off. And I’m determined to use every seductive skill in my repertoire to prove to Jenna that best friends can be lovers, too.

Who’s Your Man of the Month?

When a group of fiercely determined friends realize their beloved hang-out is in danger of closing, they take matters into their own hands to bring back customers lost to a competing bar. Fighting fire with a heat of their own, they double down with the broad shoulders, six-pack abs, and bare chests of dozens of hot, local guys who they cajole, prod, and coerce into auditioning for a Man of the Month calendar.

But it’s not just the fate of the bar that’s at stake. Because as things heat up, each of the men meets his match in this sexy, flirty, and compelling binge-read romance series of twelve novels releasing every other week from New York Times bestselling author J. Kenner.

“With each novel featuring a favorite romance trope—beauty and the beast, billionaire bad boys, friends to lovers, second chance romance, secret baby, and more—this series hits the heart and soul of romance.” — New York Times bestselling author Carly Phillips

Each book is a STANDALONE romance with an HEA and an overarching story about the friends and the bar. Totally hot and utterly binge-worthy!

I haven’t trusted women in a long time. Not since Brooke left me at the altar, breaking my heart and hardening my soul. 

 

Now she needs me. Or at least she needs my star power. Because the only way she’ll get her television reality series on the air is if I’m part of the deal.

I want to say no. After all, I’ve tried for years to forget her. But the hard truth is that I still want her. Even more, I want to punish her.

 

So I’ll agree, but only my terms. Provocative, demanding, and wildly sensual terms. 

 

It’s the perfect set-up for extracting revenge … but only if I don’t fall for Brooke all over again.

No bartender is a stranger to female attention.

I’ve got a cocky grin, confidence, and I can mix the perfect martini.

 

But there’s only one girl I want.

Mina Silver.

 

I’ve spent years imagining how she’d feel in my arms.

Fantasizing about the things we could do in bed.

Wanting to break all the rules.

 

Because even though sparks fly between us every time we touch,  she’s off-limits. She’s my best friend’s little sister, and there are rules, after all.

 

But I can’t take it anymore … and damn the rules, I’m going after the woman I want.

My wicked sense of humor has made me a local celebrity, but no one knows how much pain lies behind those jokes. Especially not the women who frequent my bed, because I never get too close.  And I never let a woman see the real man, only the radio personality.

 

Then I met her. 

Shelby Drake.

Career-focused, goal-oriented, and completely buttoned-down, the shy accountant isn’t the kind of woman I’d usually notice. But her soft mouth, hidden curves, and deep sensuality blow my mind. And after a drunken one-night stand, I’m certain I want more.


Now I’m on a sensual mission. Because no matter what it takes, I’m going to prove to Shelby that opposites really do attract.

Fate’s been messing with me. It took my buddies in combat and my wife in a fatal car accident. But I’ll be damned if I’ll let Fate take my beloved bar, The Fix on Sixth, so every bit of my focus is on saving my business. 

 

Or it was. Because all that changed when the first woman who ever touched my heart walked back into my life—along with the daughter I never knew I had.

 

Eva’s sensual curves and sharp wit still capture my heart and rekindle my senses. Now—for the first time in forever—I’ve found a passion that's worth fighting to keep other than my bar. 

 

But Fate’s not through yanking my chain, and in one final twist, it pits the bar I can’t bear to lose against the woman who’s stolen my heart.

Megan Clark refused me years ago.

 

No one refuses me. Between my money and my charisma, I’ve gotten used to getting what I want. What’s the point of being a billionaire if you can’t have fun?

And I have a lot of fun.

 

When Megan comes to me for help, I know exactly what my price will be.

 

One night. No clothes. And more fun than she’s ever had with any other man. Life doesn’t give you many second chances, and I plan to show her everything she’s been missing.

 

But even as our chemistry crackles and sparks, she’s hiding something. A secret. 

 

I have one, too: I want the one thing money can’t buy me—her love.

But I'm not the only one obsessing, and the threats against her are intensifying along with our connection.

Some might call me arrogant, with my designer suits, chiseled jaw, and  dark blue eyes. Add in my money, and I can get any woman I want.

 

Now, I want her.

 

The night I spent with Selma has lived in my most erotic dreams. And ever since she swept back into my life, with her flashing eyes and delicious body, I want nothing more than to make sultry new memories.

 

But with an election coming up and an office I want to fill, it isn’t the right time to get involved with a free-spirited girl with a wild streak. A girl who doesn’t abide by the rules. A girl who could get me noticed in all the wrong ways.

 

A girl who makes me crazy … in all the right ways.

 

Now I’m going to have to decide: Walk the straight and narrow? Or have the hottest, wildest affair of my life with the sexiest woman I’ve ever known?

 Hannah Donovan is not my type.

 

Intellectual and career-focused, she’s a lawyer, and an intimidatingly beautiful one, at that. I’d rather pump iron than open a book, and the only reason I’d go to court would be for a traffic ticket.

 

She’s the most gorgeous woman I’ve ever seen. So how can I turn down her plea that I pretend to be her fiancé for one weekend?

 

But I never expected our pretend kisses to feel so real … or for it to lead to a wild night in bed that will forever stand out as the highlight of my sex life. 

 

Our performance convinces everyone, but it was never meant to be more than a fantasy. A short term gig before diving back into reality. 

 

I can’t imagine ever being good enough for her, but I’m hooked. And now I’m determined to do whatever it takes to make this fake engagement real.

I don’t do relationships. 

 

I’ve lived my life hiding my scars, revealing myself only the in the scripts I write and the characters I voice. 

 

Few people know the real me. I’m too careful. Too afraid of getting burned all over again. 

 

Enter Beverly Martin. A movie star. A woman so beautiful and caring she makes my heart ache. She says she wants me—and her touch almost makes me believe that a girl like her could love a man like me.

 

But being with her would mean letting the spotlight of fame shine on me, too. And I’m not sure I can do that—even if walking away means losing the woman I love.

Elena is too young for me, not to mention she’s my boss’s daughter, and she babysits my kid.


That’s beyond complicated. Especially since I’m not in the market for a relationship—but I can’t deny the attraction that sizzles between us.

 

I need to ignore it. A single dad, all I want is to take care of my little girl, do my job, and enjoy my friends. Anything more is asking for complications I can’t afford. Asking to be hurt again.

 

Trouble is, I want her, too. And when our flirty sparks turn to flames, I give in to temptation. Our secret fling is scorching hot, better than I’d even imagined.

 

But secrets get out, and I could lose my job and my reputation.

 

And I’m starting to realize she’s the one thing I’m not willing to lose.

Sparks fly between a playboy prince and an idealistic lawyer, but when the demands of the throne call, can they get a fairy tale ending? 


Prince Leopold of Avelle-am-see is destined to rule his small European country. But he doesn’t want to. His entire life, Leopold has rebelled against the inevitable, gaining a reputation in Europe as a bad boy royal with a chip on his shoulder.


Skye Porter jams on researching complex legal issues, but with her lifelong speech impairment, she’s happy to pass the briefs off to another lawyer to argue. Just the idea of being in the spotlight makes her cringe. Two years ago, she dodged a bullet when her intense college fling with charismatic Leo ended when the bastard ghosted her. At the time, she’d had no idea he was a prince, or she never would have fallen so hard.


Now Leo is back, and the chemistry between them sparks just as hot. With his promise of secrecy, Skye surrenders to one more wild night. But when the press finds them together, Skye is tossed into a nightmare of tabloid photos, graphic memes, and a life in the public eye. 


Can a reluctant royal and the girl next door find their happily ever after?
