Mission: To make one sexy civvy's Christmas wish come true 

Christmas is almost here, and guys are the last thing on personal shopper Ainsley Garrett's list. But her icy resolution melts when she sees an incredibly hot Marine shopping for toys. A man in uniform with a hot bod and a heart of gold? Maybe a gal can believe in Santa after all… 

Major Ben Hawthorne has his career to think about, but when it comes to Ainsley, he's willing to break his own rules, at least for one night–provided they can get this insanely wicked attraction out of their systems. Only, once isn't enough. Now Ainsley's checking her list twice…before she falls for a Marine who's naughty and nice.

A Sexy Marine Neighbour?

The sight of the gorgeous, ripped military man across the street heats Mari McDanieks from head to toe — and a whole lot in between. Yes, sir, she definitely has a case of Hot Marine Syndrome. And when First Lieutenant Brody Williams rescues her from an awkward run-in with her ex by pretending to be her boyfriend, Mari can confirm she's got it bad...

Of course, they're friends first, and friends help each other out. Mari needs a hand renovating the old Victorian house she just bought and Brody needs a girlfriend to secure his promotion. It's the perfect temporary arrangement — and then there's the sizzling chemistry. It's wickedly racy. It's addictive. But neither of them expects Cupid's arrow to aim for their hearts!

Subject: Lieutenant Colonel Matt Ryan 

Mission: Keep things professional…no matter how hard–or hot–it gets! 

Matt Ryan wants to settle down to a peaceful life as a helicopter instructor at the local base. When he meets free–spirited antiques dealer Chelly Richardson and finds out she's homeless, well, he has to help. But her living in his pool house means the wild–at–heart woman who is stealing his dreams each night is just a bit too close… 

Chelly is determined to pay back the man who helped her during one of the toughest points in her life. She will also save the straitlaced Marine from the disaster that is her by keeping her hands off his hot, hot body. But the more she tries to stay away, the more fate seems to shove them together.

Hannah narrowly escapes a Fashion Week disaster by hijacking gorgeous Will Hughes from the U.S. Marine Corps for her runway show – after all, rock–hard abs are the ultimate accessory. His good deed nearly lands him in the brig, but he'll risk anything to get back into her bed...

Hannah can't figure out how this model marine got under her skin – they're complete opposites! But sexy Will not only ignites her senses, he fuels her creativity: an irresistible combination, even if it can't last. Can two steamy weeks together satisfy their lust...or will they have to extend this mission?
