Hard Hats, Hard Bodies — Ellora's Cave

Demolishing Mr. Perfect
Even though she's a nurse at a sperm bank, meeting young, virile professionals every day, Natalie Watson's relationships always seem to suffer from "stress fractures." With a hopeless prognosis, she seeks metaphysical help. The tea leaf reader tells her there's a perfect man for her, but she might have to change her definition of "perfect." Shane (Crusher) Derby, owner of Derby Demolition, takes out his aggressions all day long by blowing up buildings and smashing the contents. He couldn't be mellower until the nurse in the adjacent building tells him to keep it down. He's making her donors jump and miss their cups. And he has the nerve to think it's funny.

Hard Fall
Have sex with a stranger? Never. But Brooke is fed up with life and looking for a change. When she meets a from-out-of-town cowboy in a Cambridge bar, she decides he's exactly what she needs-a quick, anything goes, one-night-only distraction. Liam thought wearing a cowboy hat to his favorite sports bar because he lost a bet was pure humiliation, but when a hot, short-skirt-wearing woman tells him he's just what she wants, he changes his mind. But one night isn't enough for Liam and he's willing to change the rules of their game to get what he wants.
