Jimmy's Oath--Out Now!
Hi Readers,
I hope this dull February weather isn’t getting you down. It’s certainly not my favorite time of year. Grey skies and frigid temps. No thank you. With any luck Jimmy and Lynn’s story will heat you up and put a smile on your face! Jimmy was first introduced in Mac’s Vow. It seemed fitting to give him his very own happy ending. Next up is Reece’s Promise. The Reece brothers aren’t my typical heroes. Tattooed hackers with attitude—and they’re both itching to get their skillful hands Jose. It’s a m/f/m romantic suspense that sizzles! Due to release this summer. Buy Here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BLXCRCS8 Jimmy’s Oath:
Saint’s Investigations, Book Two
Mixing business with
pleasure could prove deadly…
Life is never dull as a PI. Maybe that’s why Jimmy Saint
loves his work so much. But when he gets a puzzling phone call from the
elusive sister of a business associate asking to meet, Jimmy is instantly
intrigued. When the curvy blonde explains that she needs help stopping a
crazed fan, Jimmy’s more than happy to protect and serve. The moment their
lips touch, however, his professionalism goes up in smoke. Now, all he can
think about is keeping her safe—preferably in his bed.
Since the nightmare of her sexual abuse came to light
Lynn Reece’s brothers have kept her in an impenetrable cocoon of safety.
DJing at a local club was a fun way to let loose until it became clear that
she’s caught the attention of a twisted creep. Thankfully, the tall, sexy
owner of Saint's Investigations comes to her rescue. His ornery grin turns
her on. Unfortunately, Lynn panics at the slightest touch from a man. But
Jimmy is patient and gentle—and he has a few inventive ways to get her past
her fears. Now, if only she can manage to stay alive. |

Once Upon a Christmas--Out Now!
Dirty Santa
Leather, lace, and mistletoe…
The shy and awkward Phoebe Martin is nothing like the women Dax normally dates. He enjoys them flirty and cooperative—and naked. But Phoebe’s buttoned-up attitude and disapproving glare turns him on. Go figure. When he overhears her agonizing over a work Christmas party—where she’s required to dress as an elf and bring a date—Dax steps up, more than eager to be her very own Santa.
Phoebe is fed up with aggressive men. She vows the next guy she dates will be the quiet, mild-mannered type. Someone who doesn’t give her ulcers. Is that so much to ask? Then the drool-worthy Dax Hale rides into her life on his sleek black motorcycle, sending her blood pressure skyrocketing. When he offers to be her escort for her boss’ holiday bash, Phoebe can’t say no. She needs him. But will Dax be her savior or her downfall?

Dangerous Entanglements--Out Now!
I’m so pleased to announce the release of Dangerous Entanglements. This romantic suspense collection is only .99 cents! Authors in this anthology include: USA Today Bestselling authors Nicole Morgan, Stacy-Deanne, Amy Stephens, and more! Buy Now or Read Chapter One
My edge-of-your-seat story, Danger up Close, features a sexy PI, a jewel heist, and a past that refuses to stay buried.
A helpful stranger or a deadly trap?
When Alice Layne doesn’t receive her daily phone call from her grandmother, she knows something is off. Finding her murdered on the kitchen floor, a butcher knife sticking out of her back, is horrifying enough. The note promising to do the same to her if she doesn’t give the psychopath a mysterious necklace is the icing on the cake. Before she can even get a chance to call the police Christian Jackson, her grandmother’s mysterious next-door neighbor swoops in and offers to help. Alice is tempted to rely on the big, brooding man, but is Christian a white knight or the sinister puppet master pulling the strings?
Christian learned early in life never to trust anyone. Love is for fools. That mantra has kept him alive. Until Maude Layne came into his world. She’d taken one look at his dirty, starving, ten-year-old self and given him a job at her corner grocery store. He’d known kindness and respect for the first time in his life. And now he’s making it his mission to avenge her death. He hadn’t counted on the beautiful Alice showing up and putting herself square in the crosshairs of the murderer. Ensuring her safety might just prove to be the easy part. Keeping his hands off her? Now that’s damned challenging.

Zadoc--Out Now!
“A surprising twist they won’t see coming!”—Laura
“I’m so invested in your Zenarians and their stories, such wonderful rich characters!”—Paulette
She awakens the beast in him…
Zadoc has known happiness when he met his beautiful Jasmine. His ofelia. His soulmate. She was his whole world. Only to have her ripped away from him when she was murdered during the war with the Mordaines. Her death was a knife to his heart. As a centuries-old Zenarian immortal, Zadoc is aware that he will never love another. Never feel the soft caress of a lover’s hands upon his wings. The physical scars he bears are a constant reminder of all that he’s lost. Until he meets Laura. Sweet, shy, and Earth-born. Her presence brings light and joy to his soul—and his creature isn’t immune to her innocent allure either. After so many years of cold emptiness, Zadoc will go to extreme lengths to keep Laura by his side.
Laura enjoys a simple life. A good book on a stormy night. Sunday dinners with her family. Her life is as modest as it gets and she’s happy with the status quo. When she meets Zadoc, co-owner of Zenarian Industries, she’s instantly drawn to him. His commanding presence and the deep, gravelly tone of his voice sends tingles of awareness along her nerve endings. Everything feminine in her stands up and takes notice. Until she glimpses the black wings sprouting from his back. Wait, wings? Before she can wrap her mind around what she’s seeing, she’s kidnapped by a disgruntled co-worker and tortured, marking the beginning of Laura’s crazy adventure into a world she never knew existed.
Happy reading,

Dirty Addiction, part of the My Perfect Pleasure
Anthology
Buy: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09RGKM5D8/
Obsessions come in all flavors…
Chloe Morgan is weak. At least she is when it comes to
Ward Reyes. She can turn down donuts like a wrestler during training, but when her
on-again-off-again boyfriend blows into town looking for a booty call she goes
down like a sinking ship. Only a drastic action can get her to move on with her
life and away from the silver-eyed devil. Was it wrong to send him a break-up text?
Definitely, but her choices are limited considering she’s an addict. But what
if Ward is the only man that can give her what she so badly desires?
“We’re through.” Ward read the text a dozen times and
still can’t believe it. But the proof is there in black and white. His sweet
Chloe is giving him the boot. At first, it’d been the blazing heat between them
that captivated Ward. It was Chloe’s giving nature and sarcastic wit that kept
him coming back for more. Unfortunately his life is a mess, thanks to his
brother’s gambling habit. Ward has spent the better part of his life cleaning
up Malcolm's messes. He’s tried to keep the ugliness of it all from touching
Chloe. Now, she’s threatening to walk away and Ward isn’t about to let her go
without a fight.
Happy reading,
