Moonlight Mirage is the unofficial book 0.5 in the Wild Crush series. Here is the story where we first meet cheeky Aussie surfer, Ty Butler, who spawned my interest in writing about surfing and second chances.
Hayley Bryant has changed a lot in the two years since her boss’s rejection sent her running. She’s
travelled the world and is now a grown woman who knows just how to get what she wants. Coming face-to-face with her former boss shouldn’t affect her at all. Except it does. Mitchell still makes her burn as hot as ever. Good thing she’s brought her sexy friend with benefits, Ty, along as a plus one to a wedding on Bandicoot Cove Island.
Mitch Wood has always put business first, except for when he hired his little sister’s friend as an intern. Pushing Hayley away was the right thing to do at the time, but he can’t deny the attraction now. This time, he’ll have to come to Hayley, and her plus one might prove to be a bit of an obstacle. Fortunately, Mitch has never been one to shy away from a little competition.
The Bandicoot Cove novellas are all part of a multi-author series. Each book in the Bandicoot Cove series is a standalone story that can be enjoyed out of order.

Ten years ago, Summer committed the ultimate sin of falling for her sister’s boyfriend. Ty was off-limits, so she did everything she could to forget him. Now he’s back in Leyton’s Headland suggesting they finish what they started long ago. Their wicked affair is as inevitable as the tide, but Ty’s not just a casual fling, he’s the only man she’s ever loved. Losing him once nearly destroyed her. How will she survive when the surfing tour takes him away once again?

A fun, vanilla fling might be just what she needs to cleanse her sexual palate after an affair with a Dom turned sour. Before long, she and Aaron are steaming up the sheets.
