When a real estate billionaire attempts to evict a millionaire matchmaker's business from his new building, they clash in a deal of head vs. heart, only to discover they're each other's perfect match. Standalone in The Elite Matchmaker Series *** Love is Iris' business. Boston's elite matchmaker has built a thriving company by finding perfect pairings. Her expansion dreams screech to a halt when she finds a hot, sexy stranger sitting in her office like he owns the place. Turns out, he does, and the new building owner, Xavier, wants her "scam" business out. The man wouldn't know love if it sat on his infuriatingly handsome face. Locked in a heated argument, Iris proposes an impossible deal: three months to find the perfect match for any client he chooses. When she succeeds, he'll publicly endorse her matchmaking, but if she fails, she'll pack up without a fight. The last thing she expects is the billionaire to call her bluff and nominate himself for the bet. Botched screenings, auto-rejections-Xavier sabotages every potential match thrown his way. But as their conflict sparks something far more dangerous than competitive rivalry, and succumbing to their steamy, forbidden attraction provokes every emotion Iris has sworn off, she faces an even bigger problem. With the deal clock ticking, breaking her cardinal rule-never fall for a client-is the one match she can't afford to make.

When she unexpectedly dies, Mackenzie Bowen lacks the paperwork she needs to pass into The Beyond. To avoid sitting in a waiting room for centuries, Mack is paired with Leon, a miserable Reaper, and hopes to either undo her death or earn her spot beyond the pearly gates. Twenty-three-year-old Mackenzie 'Mack' Bowen thought she'd get more of a shot at life before a fatal accident puts all her plans on hold. Dead and resigned to that fact, she's shocked when her soul is collected by a Reaper named Leon, who has arrived to take her to The Beyond. While the idea of the end doesn't sit well with her, the pair soon discovers that she doesn't have the paperwork to get past the pearly gates. Faced with a choice between a centuries-long wait on an appeal hearing and taking a job to earn her spot, Mack chooses the latter and becomes Leon's partner, much to the pair's chagrin. But it seems whoever engineered her unexpected passing isn't done yet, and Mack soon finds herself in the middle of a tangled web of lies, secrets, prowling Hell Hounds, and, most frightening of all, corporate bureaucracy.

As an angel trained to fight the forces of demons, Chiara knew to not let them take her alive, but she never expected to survive her first battle. Trapped in the depths of hell and tortured, only one thing is keeping her alive - the demon kept prisoner with her in the cold, dark cell. As the deadliest demon alive, Logan knew better than to piss off his commander by stealing whiskey and bedding his concubines. But the ladies were lonely and the whiskey was too tempting. He's paid dearly for his transgressions, though, spending months in a cell being tortured, only to regenerate at night for fresh torture the next day. Time blurs and he grows restless to be freed so he can rejoin the battles against angels, until a new captive is brought to his cell. The second he sees Chiara - her beauty and fierce strength, the blinding white of her wings - he is lost and she is the path forward. He would destroy every demon in hell to free her, but to possess her, he will have to destroy himself.
