Man Card Series: Short Story Collection Books 1-7
Are you ready to laugh out loud?
The Man Card Series is a fun collection of steamy romantic comedy short stories that are perfect when waiting for an appointment or great way to end a long day.
The Chocolatier Book One:My best friend’s sister was off-limits; until the day she sauntered into my classroom.
She’s looking to perfect her candy making skills.
I’m looking to teach her all the best ways to use chocolate, none of which include how to properly line a candy mold.
She’ll discover what it really means to temper chocolate when I stir her up and light her body on fire.
She’s doesn’t know it, but she was mine the moment she set foot in my kitchen.
Mr. Confident Book Two: He was supposed to be just another one-night stand before I graduated…
When I met him I didn’t tell him who I was, he didn’t need to know anything about me. I had one goal in mind for my future…for my career.
I always followed the rules, particularly where my future was concerned. So what was it about my mystery man that made me want to go against all my rules? What was it that made me crave him more than my career?
My Single Dad Book Three: Single dad looking for love.
My profile picture was being swiped left and right on a dating app, even though I never signed up.
I found out my thirteen-year-old daughter was playing matchmaker again, and I wasn't sure if I was on board.
Until I received a private message that had me more than a little curious.
Her Lifeguard Book Four: It was time to enjoy the beach. Soak up the sun, and check paddle boarding off my bucket list.
Falling off the paddle board and getting rescued by a hot lifeguard was not part of my plan.
Who needs a bucket list when you can have your own personal lifeguard.
Well, he wasn’t mine to keep. Yet.
My Professor Book Five: This had to be a nightmare. Who forgets to attend a class? Not just on one day but for the whole semester. Yes, that would be me!
To graduate I need the credits. To get the credits I need to retake the class.
Just as I thought my summer was doomed I saw my professor. Things are about to heat up and I’m not talking about the temperature outside.
The Loner Book Six: What if my prince never finds me?
Since I was a child, I wanted to have what all the women in all my favorite fairytales had: their happily ever after.
Then I was left stranded in the middle of nowhere and I started to wonder about my life.
When two complete strangers offered me a ride, I should’ve said no.
I should’ve… but something told me my fairytale had only just begun.
Her Beach Bum Book Seven: They say a phone call can change your life. I had to look at my phone a few times because I couldn’t believe what I just heard. I was the winner of a week-long getaway on an exotic island.
The idea of sipping cocktails with one of those cute umbrellas on the beach sounded like something I definitely needed.
There had to be a catch. I just didn’t realize the catch would stand six feet tall and be called Joey.
We were nothing alike. I don’t even know what to talk to him about. But something tells me talking is furthest from his mind.
Have fun devouring the first seven books in the series…You're guaranteed that perfect happy ending and a cupboard full of sweets from all the cravings.

This is an amazing bundle.
The Chocolatier (Man Card Book 1)
Rylee and Weston have known each other since they were children, since he is her brother's best friend. But when he left for Paris and showed no sign of life, they eventually drifted away.
When Rylee decides to take a chocolatier course, she didn't expect that Weston would be the teacher. The chemistry between them remains strong and they soon give in to the feelings that come back.
This is a well written story with interesting characters.
Mr. Confident (Man Card Book 2)
On her last night after graduation, Julia decided to go out with her friend Ally to celebrate, but she didn't expect to meet the handsome Denver, Mr. Confident, with whom she spent a wonderful night.
Little did they know they would be coworkers. The attraction is huge and they will have to deal with it without compromising their work.
This is a fun and quick to read story.
My Single Dad (Man Card Book 3)
This is a quick and fun read.
In this story we have Zander and Nova, who have shared a mutual attraction for some time, but neither of them acted on their feelings.
But when Zander's teenage daughter, Emma, enrolls him in a dating app, they didn't expect fate to be so accurate, matching Zander and Nova.
I loved the story, despite being short, and the characters.
Her Lifeguard (Man Card Book 4)
This was the most enjoyable story of the Man Card Series so far.
Gabby is restless in her job, stuck inside an office, and when she decides to spend a few days at the beach with her best friend, Allie, she didn't expect to meet Les, the hot lifeguard who saved her when she crashed on a paddle board.
The attraction between them is immediate and they decide to give the feelings a chance, but when Gabby's vacation is over and she has to go back to town, will their relationship be able to stand the distance?
I loved the story and the characters.
My Professor (Man Card Book 5)
When Ally discovers that she forgot to attend a class and needs to spend her summer taking classes, she becomes desperate.
But when she finds out who the teacher is, things get really interesting.
Ally and Professor James have had a case in the past, and now it's their chance to fix things.
This is a quick and funny story to read. I loved the epilogue too.
The Loner (Man Card Book 6)
This is a modern story of The Beauty and the Beast.
Sky was abandoned in the middle of nowhere by her now ex-boyfriend, and when she hitched a ride with two strangers, she didn't realize that her life would change so much.
Justin lives in seclusion after an accident that left him with a burned face, but when Sky shows up at his house, he soon becomes interested in her.
Despite the differences, the attraction between them is immediate. And when they decide to give their feelings a try, they realize that their lives can be quite different.
I loved the story and the characters.
Her Beach Bum (Man Card Book 7)
Joey really likes Sasha and wants one more chance to prove he can make her happy. He then makes up a story in which Sasha wins a trip to an exotic island.
Joey undergoes a transformation, but Sasha soon recognizes him when they are both on their way to the island. From then on things get really interesting.
But when they return home, will they be able to maintain this relationship, or will the differences separate them?
I loved the story and the characters.
I recommend the reading.

7 Short Sexy Reads
Each story was about a couple but each book centered around the same group of friends. So it was like reading more of each couple. The men and women knew what/who they wanted and they did what was needed to get the love of a lifetime. Sometimes may have taken years the the end result was the same. Glad KU catalog had this series in it.
