About Taryn Quinn

by Taryn Quinn

$2.99

Forever is the lyric I have on repeat.

I’m a rockstar on a mission, ready to leave the glamorous music scene behind. But only if I have my best friend, Felicity Hudson, by my side.

And in my bed, clad in nothing but her tattoos.

Now that I’m back in my small town near Crescent Cove, I have a weekend to blast the friend zone to pieces with the one woman I’ve always loved.

The woman I turned down after the hottest kiss of my life.

But now Felicity wants to explore the world—without me. And this might be my last chance to make her see how good we are together.

Besides, there are beds all over the world, right?

And walls.

And floors.

Putting down roots? Not for her. Not now.

And all I want is to make babies with her and settle into a home. Our home.

Unless perhaps this time we can agree to meet in the very steamy middle…

I wasn’t looking for my very own Cinderella…but I found her.

Braking too fast when it’s snowing? Bad.

And I succeeded.

I just didn’t expect our night of cider-scented passion—hey, we visited the holiday festival first—to lead to a gift that will keep on giving forever.

Now I have to convince her to take a chance on me, no matter the odds…and prove to her that our holiday romance won’t burn out before next Christmas.

He’ll make her holiday merry…and hot.

Darcy Tucker hates Christmas. As a department store supervisor, she deals with the dark side of the holiday season. Santa isn’t real, no, she doesn’t have any more Betty Fofetti dolls in stock, and no freaking way can she extend that sale.

All she wants is to get to the day after Christmas. Fa-la-la-not.

$2.99

His cherry is hers for the taking, any way she likes it...

Kim O’Halloran is on a break from dating younger men. Then her erotic art class instructor puts a sexy, intriguing male model in front of her sketch pad and whoa, nelly, does she really have to give up cougaring now?

Nah. No reason to be hasty.

Better—or worse—yet, she discovers the man she wants to sketch with her fingers is also a virgin. And he’s asking her to corrupt him a time or two hundred.

Mechanic and secret millionaire Michael Montgomery may only be in his mid-twenties, but he knows who he wants. Kim’s self-confident and funny and she’s exactly the right woman to make him take his needs…ahem…in hand. All of them.

Screw the lousy timing. Boundaries are obviously meant to be overcome—in the bed, on the couch or against the car. Kim doesn’t mind teaching him, in vivid detail, how to please a woman, but Michael intends to teach his commitment-phobic lover a few things about love.

Dirty Distractions (Afternoon Delight Book 1) Apr 29, 2017

by Taryn Quinn

( 143 )

$2.99

As a mechanic, Brad’s good with his hands. And he wants to put them all over Sara.

Sara might be a doctor who works with birds, but Brad’s the one who knows how to find all the right spots to make her purr. She wouldn’t mind that, if only she wasn’t ten years plus—mumble, mumble—older than him.

And if he wasn’t her best friend’s brother. Her younger brother.

Brad doesn’t care about their ages or the differences in the worlds they come from. They’re roommates, living together while Sara’s apartment is being renovated.

But they aren’t living alone. Brad’s big sister lives there too. And Sara’s pretty sure her bestie would prefer not to hear Sara having a screaming O with her brother.

Or a few dozen of them.

Then again, maybe rules are meant to be broken. And perhaps opposites attract—and age differences don’t matter nearly as much as other numbers.

Like how many days it takes to fall in love.

Book was previously published in 2013 from Samhain Publishing by Cari Quinn and has been lightly re-edited.

My hot elf in striped tights needs a last-minute Santa. And I need her.

In every way possible.

Alone in my remote cabin for the weekend, she’s going to be mine in every way she knows and a few she doesn’t.

by Taryn Quinn

( 55 )

$2.99

This year, rocking the office holiday party has taken on a whole new meaning.

All receptionist Wendy Stanton wants for Christmas is a chance for a relationship with her sexy, sweet, dominant boss, Des. When that chance comes, she gets a whole lot more from the bargain than she’d anticipated—mainly a few steamy, mind-blowing encounters that include her other equally sexy boss, Cole Warner. Her body enjoys every bit of their attention, but her heart still wants more. She wants Des outside of the boardroom and the bedroom and in her life for good. But he’s hiding secrets and she’s hiding her feelings, and soon they’re drifting farther apart instead of growing closer. But if anything can get them to come together, it’s Christmas Eve… Author’s note: In this book, s*x and candy is not a euphemism. And some of the ornaments from the tree have more than one use...just sayin'. Oh, and boys touch in this story. Often. Author’s note part deux: Jingle Ball was originally published by Cari Quinn in 2012. It has been re-edited and includes an epilogue.

On Halloween, anything seems possible, including nailing your dream man. Even if he's your boss's smoking hot twin brother.

Nikki Carson is ready for a repeat after she spent the hottest Halloween of her life with Patrick Nolan. True, he hasn't acknowledged that night since, but maybe he just needs a delicious reminder of how good they were together.

Up against the wall. On the floor. Anywhere at all.

Patrick Nolan isn't afraid of a hard day's work, unlike his polished, sophisticated twin brother, Easton. Naturally, Nikki must've thought she was sleeping with her rich boss, not Patrick. Why else wouldn't she have said something over the past year?

Unless she needs some help remembering which Nolan twin made her moan…and scream. And Patrick is the right man for the job.
