Amazon Self-Published Bestsellers for the Week of July 22, 2016

1. Bossman by Vi Keeland: “The first time I met Chase Parker, I didn’t exactly make a good impression. I was hiding in the bathroom hallway of a restaurant, leaving a message for my best friend to save me from my awful date.”

2. The Perfect Stroke by Jordan Marie: “Gray Lucas is everything I hate in a man. Cocky, rich, entitled and a player. He’s a pro athlete and his exploits are legendary—one of which was me.”

3. My Best Friend’s Brother by Hazel Kelly: “We used to call ourselves The Three Musketeers. I know it’s cliché, but we were only kids. They usually took turns being in charge, which was fine with me. I was just happy to go along with them.”

4. Huge X3 by Stephanie Brother: “Imagine getting a chance to live out your filthiest fantasies. Would you take it? I dream about twins; four hands, two mouths and two other things HUGE enough to blow my mind.”

5. Lady and the Champ by Katherine Lace: “I  massage naked guys for a living, but it’s strictly business. As a physical therapist, I get my hands on the hottest guys in sports, but I’m a professional. I have rules.”

6. The Atlantis Gene by A.G. Riddle: “70,000 years ago, the human race almost went extinct. We survived, but no one knows how. Until now. The countdown to the next stage of human evolution is about to begin, and humanity might not survive this time.”

7. Holding His Forever by Alexa Riley: “Derek aka Phoenix is a New York City firefighter and has dedicated his life to saving people. When he loses two of his men in the line of duty, he doesn’t know if he’ll be able to see the light again.”

8. Unexpected Reality by Kaylee Ryan: “Expect the unexpected. That’s what they say, but it’s easier said than done. How do you expect a change so huge it rocks you to your core? How do you prepare yourself for an event that will alter your life forever?”

9. Grinder by Samantha Whiskey: “Gage McPherson was the Seattle Shark’s best Grinder, until he shattered his shoulder last season. Time heals all wounds…but the heartbroken single dad has more than his share of trust issues. The playboy only lets one girl close to his iced-over heart—his pint-sized daughter who’s the center of his world.”

10. No Pants Required by Kim Karr: “I, Makayla Alexander, am on a mission to reinvent myself. So when a super hot guy boards the plane and flashes his rock hard abs, I pay attention. When he sits next to me and offers me his nuts, I can’t resist. But when I choke on them and he tells me I need to work on my gag reflex, I realize I might be in over my head.”
