Summary by Goodreads:
Wild girl, Mia Sherman, has a secret--she isn't as fearless as she pretends. Descended from Lonesome Point, Texas's founding family, Mia grew up hearing tales of an old Irish curse that had followed the Shermans to America. At age twenty-four, Mia is still terrified of the stories, because they aren't stories. They are a warning about what will happen if Mia allows love and romance into her life. The curse struck Mia's grandmother and her great-great-whatever grandmother, and Mia knows she could be next. The first-born daughter of every generation is cursed to lose her husband on her wedding night, which is one of the many reasons Mia has sworn off relationships.
Until the fateful day Sawyer Kane rides his Harley into her life ...
Rancher turned restoration expert, Sawyer Kane, can't believe his luck when the feisty owner of the lingerie shop next to his hotel turns out to be the curator of his latest project, a ghost town he's been sent to restore. He's looking forward to long, hot days talking history, and hotter nights with Mia, but the redhead with the killer smile seems determined to keep him at a friendly distance. But when a dangerous man from Mia's past arrives in town, Sawyer finds himself drawn into her inner circle, and into the legend of Lonesome Point itself.
Can true love conquer all, even a centuries-old curse? Mia and Sawyer may be the first to find out.

A Hell's Lovers MC: Grayson | Riggs | Cain by Crimson Syn
You can find my review for the first 'A Hell's Lovers MC: Wolf' right here.
I would suggest taking a look at my review on the first book to make more sense of the following 3.
Grayson Book 2:
Summary by Goodreads:She’s a wildcat in bed and she’s driving me insane!
Ever since that first night I can’t get enough of Rahyne Andrews.
Her kisses, her body, her moans, drive me crazy. I can’t seem to say no to her.
My only problem is, that she doesn’t seem to be interested in more than my body.
And I’m not about to have my control taken away from me.
She either bends to my will, or I’m walking.
Grayson Carter is everything I ever dreamed of and more.
He’s built like a rock and knows how to satisfy my every need.
But the last thing I want is to have another failed relationship.
Especially, when it involves a member of the Hell’s Lovers.
I’m the one in control, I’m always in control…
So why is it that Grayson Carter is the only man who has ever made me beg for more.

The Tavern By Marguerite Steen
Summary By Goodreads:
Can you ever truly know someone…?
Don Florio Conde and his wife Doña María Teresa own a small tavern in Andalucía. It’s a place where the wealthy brush shoulders with the poor, where people from all walks of life are welcomed with open arms. Yet behind the smiling faces that greet new customers hides the anger and frustration that María Teresa and her husband feel for each other. Over twenty years of marriage has left them little more than resentful strangers. She is a domineering shrew and he a submissive drunkard.
When Florio agrees to let a wealthy patron of the inn, Don Joaquín Saavedra, use their spare room for a discreet liaison with the married wife of the powerful Don Alfredo Fedriani, he dreams of the money and prestige that Don Joaquín’s trust and gratitude will bring. But when María Teresa hears of the plan, she is horrified. Unlike other taverns, she has always enforced a strict policy against allowing her rooms to be available for such improper use. Desperate to retain the tavern’s reputation for respectability, María Teresa refuses to allow the affair to be conducted under her roof. Unable to see the consequences that might result from offending such a powerful man as Don Joaquín, she manipulates events to make the room unavailable on the night.
Furious at the insult, and the lost opportunity to meet his mistress, Don Joaquín vanishes from the premises and refuses to return, taking the patronage of other wealthy customers with him. Despairing, Florio spends more and more time away from the tavern, and his wife, drowning himself in wine and letting his eye wander. Neither is a new occupation for him, but this time the girl who has caught his fancy is none other than the pretty young thing that María Teresa adores.

Don’t Remember by Rich Silvers
Summary By NetGalley:
How much will Julian sacrifice to find the truth?
But instead Julian wakes up in a hospital, his body shattered from a car accident he can’t remember. The prominent neurosurgeon who broadsided him swears his light was green. An eyewitness disagrees. A woman is dead, and the surgeon is accused of manslaughter.
A stranger warns Julian that if his memory returns and he tells anyone what really happened, Julia will die, too.
What don’t they want him to remember? Julian knows he got in the car an hour before the accident, on his way to see Julia. But then…nothing.
Why was he driving away from Julia’s apartment when the car hit him?
What did he see just before the impact?
Julian bears the weight of not knowing. His quest will take him to places he never expected, and to stories he never wanted to hear.
