Bodywork by Marie Harte is a standalone f/m contemporary erotic romance, free courtesy of the author and All Romance eBooks as their 12 Days of Christmas countdown selection for the 20th.
This is a medium-length 4-flame work which amazingly has no cowboys, BDSM, shapeshifters, ménage, time-travel or stalker/killer elements, or even any particular warned-for kinks. Just plain old-fashioned relationship drama interspersed with hawt sexyfuntimes.
Well, statistically speaking I suppose it had to happen at some point.

A Familiar Face, a 4-flame sci-fi/fantasy (it's hard to tell from the synopsis whether the ancient warriors are alien or supernatural) shapeshifter erotic romance.

Description
Their first meeting could have been better. He ran into her and her hot coffee, and raced off with a burn and a snarl.
Their second meeting should have been better. He lay naked, face down on her massage table while she stared at him in horror. Being sexually attracted to Mr. Tall, Dark and Rude hadn't been on her agenda. She just wants him out of her massage clinic before he recognizes her or she says something obnoxious before jumping that sexy body. Not professional. Not at all.
But when Shelby Vanzant and Shane Collins meet again, the third time's the charm. Shane has found his match, a sexy, intelligent woman he can't stop thinking about. Shelby is scared, because she might grow to like this guy. The last guy she liked dumped her for someone hotter.
She's willing to take a chance--maybe--if her flamboyant mother, Shane's macho best friend and his Casanova of a younger brother don't screw things up. With fate on their side, they might both have a shot at a love they'd stopped looking for.
