This
series is full of sexy heros, strong heroines and romance with
HEAs. All the books link together but each book can be read as a stand alone. I
highly recommend reading the entire series though...
UNTOUCHED (Beachwood Bay #0.5)
Emerson Ray is trouble.
Juliet knows it the minute she lays eyes on Beachwood Bay's resident
bad boy. Forced to spend her summer before college in the sleepy beach
town, she never expected to crash into the most devastating guy she’s
ever met—or for Emerson’s blue eyes to strip through her dark secrets,
and make her feel a desire she’s never known. Their connection is
undeniable, but Juliet is torn. She knows, once she gives him
everything, there’ll be no turning back.
Juliet McKenzie is dangerous. Emerson can tell from the way she blows through all his defenses, laying bare the demons he’s carried alone all his life. He’s left a trail of broken hearts and empty beds in his wake, but Juliet is different. Her innocence is intoxicating—and the passion she keeps hidden, just below the surface. He wants to be the only one to set it free, but with every kiss, he’s closer to losing control and doing the one thing he swore he never would: fall in love.
One summer. Two damaged hearts. Their story is only just beginning…

UNBROKEN (Beachwood Bay #1)
"Mom always told me
there are two kinds of love in this world: the steady breeze, and the
hurricane. Emerson Ray was my hurricane...."
Juliet McKenzie was an innocent eighteen-year old when she spent the summer in Beachwood Bay—and fell head over heels in love with Emerson. Complicated, intense Emerson, the local bad boy. His blue eyes hid dark secrets, and just one touch could set Juliet ablaze. Their love was demanding and all-consuming, but when summer ended, tragedy tore them apart. Juliet swore she’d never go back, and she’s kept that promise… Until now.
Four years later, Juliet’s done her best to rebuild the wreckage of her shattered life. She’s got a great boyfriend, and a steady job planned after she graduates. Returning to Beachwood to pack up her family’s beach house to prepare it for sale, Juliet is determined that nothing will stand in the way of her future. But one look from Emerson, and all her old desire comes flooding back. He let her go once, but this time, he’s not giving up without a fight. And Emerson fights dirty.
A heartbreaking history. An unstoppable passion. Torn between her past and future, Juliet struggles to separate love from desire. But will they find a way to overcome their tragic secrets—together? And after so much damage has been done, can a love remain unbroken?
