My name is Mackenzie Locke, and I'm a loveaholic. I haven't got a handle on men. Not even a little bit. So I staged an intervention and booked me and my two best friends into Love Rehab, complete with a love shaman, horse therapy and a bunch of stones that promise to change my life. I'm not leaving until I'm cured. Lesson one: the first night of your stay, don't have a one-night stand with the hottest guy you've ever seen in your life. Fail.

It should be the most shocking news I’d ever gotten - my boyfriend is getting married. Okay, technically he’s my ex-boyfriend. Two months ago he decided he wanted a break. I still thought he was my happily-ever-after. On any other day, knowing he was gone for good would be the worst thing that could possibly happen. But not today. Because not only is my boyfriend getting married - his bride is my best friend. And they’ve sent me an invitation. There’s no way I’m going to attend. I don’t care if it’s in beautiful Scotland. Nothing and no one could convince me.

Being labelled a player never stopped me from being successful with women. Until I met Truly Harbury. Truly was the first girl who ever turned me down. And she might just be the first woman with whom I ever fall in love. When an emergency means she needs my help running her family’s charity, I’m happy to introduce her to the glitz and glamour of the London business world - taking her to dinners, coaching her through speeches, zipping up the sexy evening gown I helped her pick out. The more time we spend together, the more I want to convince her I’m not a man to avoid.

I believe in love. It just doesn’t believe in me. I date. I’m all for giving guys a chance. I’ve just never met the one. Until on a spring morning in the English countryside, a tall, dark stranger emerges from the mist. Logan Steele is all tousled hair, hard chest, and lips so perfect I want to reach out and touch them, just to check they’re real. Did I mention he’s an Earl with a self-made fortune? But when I find out Logan Steele is out to destroy everything I’ve dedicated my life to protect, the chemistry disappears and the hope that had blossomed my chest turns to rage.

How long does it take to get over your first love? Eight years should be long enough. My mind knows that, but there's no convincing my heart. Guys like Joel weren't supposed to fall for girls like me. He had his pick of women at University, but somehow the laws of nature were defied and we fell crazy in love. After graduation, Joel left to pursue his career in New York. He wanted me to go with him but my life was in London. We broke up and my heart split in two. I haven't seen or spoken to him since he left.

As a chief stewardess on luxury superyachts, I massage egos, pamper the spoiled, and cater to the most outlandish desires of the rich and famous. I've never had a guest want something I can't give them. Until British businessman Hayden Wolf comes aboard - all sexy swagger and mysterious requests. But guests are strictly off limits and I've never broken a rule. Not even bent one. My family are depending on me and I can't lose my job. Only problem is Hayden Wolf is looking at me like I just changed his life. And he's touching me like he's about to change mine.

Meeting Beth Harrison in the first-class cabin of my flight from Chicago to London throws me for a loop, and everything I know about myself and women goes out the window. I'm usually good at reading people, situations, the markets. I know instantly if I can trust someone or if they're lying. But Beth is so contradictory and confounding, I don't know which way is up.

As one of Hollywood's A-listers, I have the movie industry in the palm of my hand. But if I'm going to stay at the top, my playboy image needs an overhaul. No more tabloid headlines. No more parties. And absolutely no more one-night stands. Filming for my latest blockbuster takes place on the coast of Maine, and I'm determined to stay out of trouble. But trouble finds me when I run into Lana Kelly.

I keep my two worlds separate. At work, I'm King of Wall Street. The heaviest hitters in Manhattan come to me to make money. They do whatever I say because I'm always right. I'm shrewd. Exacting. Some say ruthless. At home, I'm a single dad trying to keep his 14-year-old daughter a kid for as long as possible. If my daughter does what I say, somewhere there's a snowball surviving in hell. And nothing I say is ever right.

Anna Kirby is sick of dating. She's tired of heartbreak. Despite being smart, sexy, and funny, she's a magnet for men who don't deserve her. A week's vacation in New York is the ultimate distraction from her most recent break-up, as well as a great place to meet a stranger and have some summer fun. But to protect her still-bruised heart, fun comes with rules. There will be no sharing stories, no swapping numbers, and no real names. Just one night of uncomplicated fun.

When I’m offered the chance to leave New York to live in London for three months, I can’t pack my suitcase fast enough. As soon as I touch down, I’m obsessing over red telephone boxes, palaces, and all the black cabs. But my favorite place is the tube. It’s wall-to-wall hot British men in suits. 

I’m an all-or-nothing man - 100 percent focused on whatever has my attention. First it was serving my country in the Special Forces. Then it was building my business. Right now it’s the hot blonde at the bar who’s about to become another notch on my bedpost.

I've made every one of my billions of dollars myself - I'm calculating, astute and the best at what I do. It takes drive and dedication to build what I have. And it leaves no time for love or girlfriends or relationships. But don't get me wrong, I'm not a monk. I understand the attention and focus it takes to seduce a beautiful woman. They're the same skills I use to close business deals. But one night is where it begins and ends. I'm not the guy who sends flowers. I'm not the guy who calls the next day.

I was born into British aristocracy, but I've made my fortune in Manhattan. New York is now my kingdom. Back in Britain, my family is fighting over who's the next Duke of Fairfax. The rules say it's me - if I'm married. It's not a trade-off worth making. I could never limit myself to just one woman. Or so I thought until my world is turned upside down. Now, the only way I can save the empire I built is to inherit the title I've never wanted - so I need a wife. To take my mind off business I need a night that's all pleasure.

Sie hatte klare Regeln. Doch Regeln sind dazu da, gebrochen zu werden. Anna Kirby hat das mit der Liebe aufgegeben. Viel zu oft wurde ihr bereits das Herz gebrochen, und inzwischen hat sie sich damit abgefunden, dass sie mit Männern, die nicht länger als eine Nacht bleiben, glücklicher ist. Ein Business-Trip nach New York ist die perfekte Gelegenheit sich von ihrer letzten Trennung abzulenken. Und als sie den Geschäftsmann Ethan Scott kennenlernt, gibt es klare Regeln: Keine Vergangenheit, keine Nummern, keine echten Namen. Doch Anna hat nicht mit Ethans Regel Nummer 1 gerechnet.

Er ist der Prinz der Park Avenue - doch sie regiert sein Herz! Sam Shaw hat für seinen Erfolg hart gearbeitet und sich aus dem Nichts ein millionenschweres Vermögen aufgebaut - weshalb er noch nie Zeit für Beziehungen hatte. Auch als er die Galeriebesitzerin Grace Astor kennenlernt, scheinen die Spielregeln klar: eine Nacht, nicht mehr. Egal wie sehr sie ihm unter die Haut geht. Doch als Grace mitten in der Nacht Sams Wohnung ohne ein weiteres Wort verlässt und sich nicht mehr meldet, ist sein Ehrgeiz geweckt.

Max King ist der erfolgreichste Investment-Banker von New York. Sein Ruf als King of Wall Street eilt ihm voraus, doch niemand ahnt, dass sein härtester Job erst nach Feierabend beginnt: als alleinerziehender Vater seiner vierzehnjährigen Tochter Amanda. Zeit für Beziehungen hat Max nicht. Er lebt in zwei Welten, die er strikt getrennt hält. Bis er eines Abends Harper Jayne, seiner neuen Angestellten, im Aufzug zu seinem Penthouse begegnet. Die schüchterne Schönheit bringt ihn seit ihrem ersten Arbeitstag um den Verstand und lässt ihn nachts kein Auge zutun.

Sie hatte klare Regeln. Doch Regeln sind dazu da, gebrochen zu werden. Ethan und Anna sind vielleicht durch mehrere tausend Meilen voneinander getrennt, aber ihre Regeln haben sie hinter sich gelassen. Doch es ist nicht nur die Entfernung, die ihrer gemeinsamen Zukunft im Weg stehen. Können sie die Vergangenheit wirklich hinter sich lassen und zusammen glücklich werden?

 Sie hatte klare Regeln. Doch Regeln sind dazu da, gebrochen zu werden. Anna Kirby kam nach New York, um sich von ihrer Trennung zu erholen und endlich mal wieder Spaß zu haben. Sie hatte nicht geplant, jemanden kennenzulernen. Jemanden wie Ethan, der in nur einer Woche jede einzelne ihrer Regeln gebrochen hat. Wie soll sie jetzt, zurück in London, in ihr altes Leben zurückfinden und über einen Mann hinweg kommen, den sie kaum kennt - und der längst auf dem Weg zu ihr ist, um all ihre Regeln für immer über den Haufen zu werfen... Zweiter Teil der NEW YORK AFFAIRS.
