What’s a girl to do after burning all of her no-good, cheating boyfriend’s belongings? Throw a dart at a map and start over in a new town. 

I may be new to the small town of Everton, but I’m well aware that I now share a zip code with a celebrity. You’d have to be living under a rock to not know, Knox Bentley, one of country music’s biggest stars.  

When Knox wanders into my bar— careful brown eyes and broody attitude—I can’t tear my gaze away. A cheating scandal fresh on his heels is just one reason I should stay far, far away, but the closer we get, the more I realize he’s not at all what I imagined. 

But being a famous musician comes with unwanted attention…the kind that tears people apart, and now it’s becoming too painful to stay by his side. 

They say love is a choice, but so is leaving…

Feeling guilty for hurting the woman he loved years ago to marry a woman he knew nothing about in order to advance career, he vows never to put himself in that position again. Ainsley Harding moved to Everton after learning about her boyfriend’s infidelities. Needing a change of scenery and break from her career, she begins working at a bar in town. When Knox walks into her bar, Ainsley becomes curious about the celebrity taking space in all the tabloids.  

An unexpected friendship begins as Knox negotiates out of his contract with the label and puts an end to his marriage, promising to keep the truth about his fake marriage a secret if granted what he wants. The more time they spend together, the more both Knox and Ainsley begin to have feelings for each other. Knox finally succeeds in getting his divorce and ending his ties with the music label, allowing him and Ainsley to have a relationship. As the media catches wind of their romance, Ainsley is blamed for Knox’s failed marriage. Since he agreed not to expose the truth behind his marriage, he feels helpless in protecting Ainsley from the media that is now following her every move. Their relationship suffers as a result, creating friction and tearing them apart. Unable to deal with the lies, Knox schedules an interview with a magazine, ready to defend Ainsley. He is then contacted by Amelia, who has decided to share with the media that her marriage to Knox was a publicity stunt, in order for all of them to live in peace.

He was the love that could deconstruct my patterns. If only I could accept that the one lie I’ve believed my entire life is the only truth.

Tyler Hunt might be country rock’s biggest star, but fame doesn’t erase the memories of the past, neither does his vice. When drinking lands Tyler in Chasing Freedom Recovery Center again, he’s angry and in denial.

After a tense interview, where Sophie can’t help but show her pent up feelings for Jase, Jase surprises her by offering her a position.

But the team leader who Jase assigned her to is worse than the man himself, and when Jase offers his help, Sophie’s resolve against him begins to crack.

Death…it’s the only guarantee in this rollercoaster ride called life. My dad always used to say “It’s what you do while you’re alive that matters.” But he’s gone now, and me…I’m spiraling out of control and on the verge of losing everything my dad worked so hard for.

Until Mateo Reyes makes me an offer I can’t refuse: he wants to purchase my dad’s shop. The payday would be monumental, but can I really sell all I have left of my dad?

Eventually, I give in. With a single caveat–he hires me to run it.

The tatted-up mechanic turns out to be as strict as he is handsome.

When I agreed to help my late friend’s daughter, I had no idea the kind of trouble I was inviting into my life. Seraphine’s young, reckless, impulsive, and drowning in her grief. The absolute last person I should allow around my teenaged daughter.

I’ve made it my personal mission to show her life does in fact go on after loss. After the death of my wife–I’d know.

Before I know it, I find myself thinking about things I have no business thinking of–like if her skin’s as soft as it looks and how her lips taste.

Turns out, she’s every bit as interested as I am, and while she might be my damnation, I’m willing to fight for her, come what may.

When he finds her, it’s apparent she’s not only drowning in the wake of her loss, but she’s also been drugged. 

No stranger to grief himself, Mateo makes it his mission to help Seraphine. Though she’s initially not interested in help of any kind, he’s determined to be there for her—to protect and guide her. Upon realizing how dire Seraphine’s situation truly is, he offers to purchase her father’s auto shop, agreeing readily to hire her as a means to not only help her, but also to keep an eye on her.

Finally, Mateo convinces Seraphine to go out with him, and despite her worry over being an inexperienced virgin, she knows there is no one else for her, and their relationship begins to quickly progress. When she discovers she’s pregnant with Mateo’s child, she fears it is too much, too soon.

Except the night before my birthday, he did the unthinkable, and now I’m not sure I know how to forgive him.
All I know is, I refuse to be anyone’s dirty little secret.

ORION
I’m torn between two women… 

They’re as different as night and day, yet I want them both. 

Frankie, the sensitive, single mom. Watching her care for her son damn near has me ready to give up my bachelor lifestyle. 

Then there’s my Bluebird, the stripper who’s captivated me since the moment I laid eyes on her. 

One woman is my soulmate and the other is my every fantasy come to life… 

I know I can’t have them both, but how am I supposed to choose?

FRANKIE
I feel like I’m living two lives…

The sweet single mom by day and the sexy stripper by night.

Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine myself shaking my ass on stage for a bunch of horny men. Yet, here I am, doing just that. 

But it’s all worth it, if it means I can give my son the childhood I never had. 

I can’t afford any distractions, especially of the tall, dark, and handsome variety.

Which is why my oh-so-tempting roommate is totally off-limits and can never know that his precious Bluebird and I are one and the same. 

Summary: 
Orion Cartwright is a bachelor with no plans of settling down or starting a family—that is, until he meets Birdie, an exotic dancer he falls for on sight. She quickly becomes his addiction, and he returns night after night to watch her dance. The two grow closer, both mentally and physically, through his semi-regular VIP room visits. However, when his roommate and business partner gets engaged, Orion finds himself living with his little sister—along with Frankie, her roommate, and Frankie’s young son, Maverick. Much to his surprise, Orion has an instant bond with Maverick, and the three of them begin spending time together. All too quickly, he realizes he’s developing feelings for Frankie, leaving him torn between two women, without knowing Frankie and Birdie are actually the same person. One woman is his fantasy, and the other his soulmate. Eventually he decides to stop going to the club so that he can fully pursue Frankie, but she’s determined to keep him firmly in the friend zone.

Frankie Townsend is a down-on-her-luck single mom doing everything she can to give her son the best life possible. After being disowned by her parents and tragically losing Maverick’s father, the very day he was born, she hardened her heart and erected walls a mile high; if you never let anyone in, they can’t hurt you. However, when they are evicted from their apartment, Frankie is forced to accept help and reluctantly moves in with classmate and quasi-friend, Stella. What she doesn’t expect is to walk into the kitchen one morning and see her VIP-room client making breakfast with her son. Turns out, he’s Stella’s older brother, and he’s going to be staying with them for a while. Though she fights their attraction at first, her growing feelings for him quickly become too big to ignore, so she decides to give him a chance. But first, she has to come clean and tell him that she is Birdie. Much to her surprise, Orion isn’t upset by the news, and the two of them—along with Maverick—live happily ever after.

Ryan “Renegade” Kepler
I’m the type of man who knows what I want. I make up my mind and stay in my lane, never veering off the course I set for myself.

Make my wedding planning company the best in the south? Did it. Ignore the way my body trembles when I see Ryan? Epic fail. Freak out when I see a positive pregnancy test staring back at me? Complete with mascara running down my face and clutching my pearls.

Looks like things will never be the same. There’s a man in my life who doesn’t take no for an answer. He’s the one who makes my blood run hot, cheeks turn red, and heart beat wildly within my chest. His name is Renegade.

Trevor “Tank” Trumbolt

I never thought in the blink of an eye my life could change, but it did. Cresting a hill driving to my favorite fishing spot, I was hit head-on by a teenager with no regard for anyone’s life but his own.

The recovery process has been hard, painful, and damn near beating me down.

The bright spot? Blaze.

Surviving the wreck has given me a second chance to make a life with her. Not knowing if I’ll ever be able to rejoin the Moonshine Task Force again has brought my world into focus. It’s made me realize what’s important.

Blaze. Stella. My brothers. My sister.

The ego that ran Blaze away before isn’t here any longer. What’s left is a man who’s holding his heart in his hands and a burning hope that once I’m healed she’ll still be around.

Daphne “Blaze” Coleman

There’s only been one person in the world who’s accepted me for who I am – from the fiery red of my hair and vibrant tattoos covering parts of my body to the smartness of my mouth and my desire to be matched in the bedroom.

That man is Trevor Trumbolt. When he asked me to give up my job as an EMT because he saw the dangers I face one scary afternoon, it spelled the end for us.

Now that he’s been injured, he needs my help and my love. I failed once before when someone close needed me. I won’t make that mistake again. For Trevor, I’ll give it all freely, but in the end I’m gonna need him to understand one thing about relationships – the give and take, love and sadness, pleasure and pain is a two-way street. He’s either in this with me or he’s not, but at the end of the day, I won’t let him boss me around.

If there’s anything that can handle the steel of a tank – it’s the heat of a blaze.

Months later, Tank is in a life-threatening off-duty accident. He is injured so badly he can’t resume his normal duties. It’s decided someone should stay with him to help with recovery.

In close quarters, the feelings they had previously come back, and they come back with a vengeance. Very quickly, platonic gestures turn into romantic lust. Tank apologizes for making her choose between him and her job when she admits to him that she’s an EMT because she watched her older sister die of an overdose in front of her.

My job as the leader of the Moonshine Task Force is my life. I eat, breathe, and sleep it. The men under my command mean the world to me. Knowing they count on my guidance has kept my demons at bay for longer than I care to admit.  

The control I have over myself is an iron fist that sometimes threatens to squeeze the life out of me. What I want more than anything is to live again – someone to show me the light when all we have in our line of work is darkness. 

I don’t expect it to come in the form of a Moonshiner’s daughter needing my protection. 

Leighton Strather 

My whole life has been defined by who my family is. In the state of Alabama, we’re number one with a target on our backs. The danger and prestige isn’t for me. I don’t care about the money, and I care too much about the families we’ve ruined.

It’s the only reason I ask Holden to marry me. At least that’s what I tell myself.

Ace is saving lives and mending hearts…….

Anthony “Ace” Bailey

I’m not a rules kinda guy

Department Policy? Kinda sucks, but I do what I have to for the job that I love.
Playing it safe? Not my thing.
Married? No big deal when I know she’s unhappy and scared.

I’m one of those guys – a sniper in the military, a little bit of an adrenaline junkie, and a member of the Moonshine Task Force. I’ve lived through some shit.

My gut has never failed me. It’s my sixth-sense. Warning me of a gunshot coming my way, of a traffic stop being potentially deadly, or the tingling in the back of my neck when I go to sleep telling me I’ll be woken up by a call in the middle of the night. My gut has always kept me honest.

Like the day I walked into The Café and saw the new waitress. There was a ring on her left hand, but I didn’t care. One look in her eyes told me everything I needed to know. Her marriage wasn’t one made of love and respect. It was one made of fear and doubt.

It’s why I ignored that ring, why I arrested her husband, and the reason I’m willing to take my time. Patience is a virtue, and with this woman, I have it in spades.

Violet Miller

Meeting Anthony Bailey changed my life. He did things that no one else has ever done for me.

Feeling safe? Never happened before.
Feeling wanted? It’s been years.
Being independent? I’m learning.

It’s foreign, not having someone question my every move, being able to eat what I want for dinner, and sitting out on my front porch talking to Anthony every night while we share a couple beers.

I try to tell myself he’s just being nice; that he’s doing his job and working within the community. The problem? The night he takes the kiss we both want, everything changes, and I can no longer deny what I feel. But it doesn’t stop me from trying – and I learn quickly that Ace knows me better than anyone else ever has – including myself.

All I can do is hang on, as he takes me on the scariest journey of my life. The one that bends us until we almost break, and ends with a happily ever after I never thought I would get.

Summary:
Anthony “Ace” Bailey is a member of the Alabama Moonshine Task Force – an elite group of police officers combating the use of illegal moonshine in the state. Violet Miller is a waitress at the local Café. When her abusive husband beats her one day in the middle of her work shift, Ace saves her. When she gets out of the hospital, Ace does his best to make sure she feels cared for and safe, especially as she goes back to work in the same place her husband beat her. Ace goes out of his way to make sure she doesn’t isolate herself from their group of friends.

They go to Mobile, Alabama to celebrate the marriage of their friends Renegade and Whitney. The entire MTF takes a road trip to the most southern part of the state. While there, she gets a little more of herself back; she starts wearing makeup, dresses, and begins to take better care of herself. The rooms have been double-booked, and she’s bunking with Ace. He teaches her that men can be patient and kind. Eventually, she’s strong enough to talk to him about pursuing her dreams of going to school and divorcing her husband. Her husband refuses to give her a divorce, but Ace makes sure she gets it, telling her that even if he isn’t a part of her dreams, he wants to help her achieve them. Over the next few months, they spend time together, even getting stuck together on Halloween helping their friend Leighton get to the hospital to deliver her and Havoc’s baby. The end welcomes in a new year, with Ace proposing to Violet.

Mason “Menace” Harrison

“Single and ready to mingle……”

Those are the words above every picture of almost every female that strikes my interest on this dating app my son talked me into getting. After being a single dad for seventeen years, I’m ready to spread my wings, just not with most of the co-eds who keep hitting on me and calling me daddy.

Now that Caleb’s in his Senior year of high school, I feel like I can let go of the iron-clad control I’ve had on myself without his Mom in our lives. I’ve enjoyed raising him, love the relationship we have, and while he went off the rails for a bit last year, we’re closer than we’ve ever been. He’s got a full ride to the University of Alabama, and I’ve settled into my spot with the Moonshine Task Force.

But my son doesn’t warm my bed, he isn’t someone I can share my dreams with, and he’s not the person I want to grow old with by my side. I’m not sure who that is yet, but the smokin’ hot lady going by the name BeachBum83 definitely has every single bit of my interest.

Karina Holland

“Looking for a good time, maybe more…..”

Those were the lamest words I ever typed in my life, but it was the best I had for the dating app my friend, Violet talked me into joining. I didn’t have any high hopes for myself. As a High School English teacher, I’m sick of pervy Dads hitting on me when they come in to discuss their child’s lack of motivation to read the classics and apply themselves.

Until the day Mason Harrison walks into my classroom. I had no idea Caleb’s Dad was the man I met off that dating app who showed me how flexible I really am in the back of his Jeep. Within minutes of the parent/teacher conference he proved the sparks weren’t one-time only when we christened my desk.

Mason and Caleb? They touch a part of my heart that no one’s ever touched before, and when a threat from the past shows up, I prove just how tough I really am.

Summary:
Mason “Menace” Harrison is a member of the Alabama Moonshine Task Force – an elite group of police officers combating the use of illegal moonshine in the state. Karina Holland is his son Caleb’s teacher. When Caleb puts a dating app on Menace’s phone, neither of them really expect for him to hit it off with anyone. But, he does. Karina meets him in Birmingham, where they share a dinner and end up having sex in the backseat of his Jeep. She assumes he’s the single father of a young child, and is not sure that she wants to get involved with someone with a young child, so she ignores his calls. When he walks into her classroom for career day, they’re both shocked. After the students leave, they have an encounter on her desk, and she promises next time she’ll answer the phone. She agrees to date him, and they spend time getting to know one another. The MTF is investigating a lead that there is moonshine in the school where Karina teaches, and they suspect the creepy science teacher, who also happens to hang around the girls’ locker room too often.

Caleb is a high school senior, and Menace is doing his best to find out what his life will be once Caleb’s gone. Karina steps in when Caleb is sick with the flu, and further insinuates herself into their family dynamic. She and Menace move in together, and soon Caleb goes off to college. They find a stash of moonshine near the locker room. Not being able to pin it on the teacher yet, they hang back, gathering more evidence. Menace and Karina get married, and she finds out she’s pregnant. They share the happy news with Caleb, and go to watch him play in his first college football game. Around Thanksgiving, they have the proof they need to arrest the science teacher, but he gets wind of it, and takes a heavily pregnant Karina hostage. Ace goes back to his sniper beginnings to take out the target, and saves Karina. The couple has their baby daughter, Kelsea, and Caleb promises her that she will never have to know what it’s like not to have a family to count on.

The kid is now a man, and he’s got something to prove….. 

Caleb “Cruise” Harrison 

“A Dad is a son’s first hero……” 

All my life I’ve looked up to my Dad, there’s nothing I ever wanted to do more than be a member of the Moonshine Task Force right next to him. I said no to playing football professionally to stay in Laurel Springs and fulfill my dream.  

I’m biding my time, paying my dues, and soaking up any bit of information my fellow MTF members slip my way. To most of them I’m the kid they watched grow up, and while they’re proud of me, they don’t take me seriously. 

Life is status quo until the morning all hell breaks loose in our small town threatening everyone I know and love – including the one woman I can’t get out of my head. 

Ruby Carson 

“My favorite place? In his arms……” 

Caleb saved me from the worst date of my life, swooping in like the fixer he is. Smiling his panty-melting grin, he grabbed my hand, and extricated me from the longest ninety minutes known in the history of the world.  

Instead, he took me on the best date I’ve ever had. We’ve been inseparable since that crazy night. 

It hasn’t been picture-perfect. His job is dangerous, it worries me, even when he tells me not to. One gorgeous summer day, it all comes crashing down on us. 

The man who has my heart is in the middle of a FUBAR situation that has no good ending. My hope is, when the smoke clears Caleb walking towards me, arms out-stretched, with that grin on his face, before he envelopes my body into the hug only he can give. 

That’s what would happen in a perfect world – but I’ve never known a perfect world – not even with Caleb…… 

Summary: 
Ten years after the last book, Caleb Harrison, Menace’s son, has joined the Moonshine Task Force as “Cruise”. Ruby is a teacher at the local school, and works with Caleb’s stepmother, Karina, who he now calls “mom.” They meet at The Café, when Caleb overhears Ruby get propositioned in a way that sets him on edge. Caleb intervenes, gets rid of the guy, and offers to take Ruby home, telling her he’s a cop. He asks to take her out on the ride home, and so begins their relationship. He tells her of growing up without a female figure, and how his dad always made the class cupcakes for his birthday, but they were awful, and he was always kind of ashamed of them. On Valentine’s Day, Caleb and his dad are called away because of a horrible wreck, leaving Ruby and Karina to celebrate the holiday together. When he and his dad arrive at their family home, Ruby has made cupcakes, and Caleb knows she’s the one for him. 

Things are status quo, until Caleb is called out on a chase and is forced to shoot and kill the suspect. He reacts by pushing everyone away. He has a hard time coming to grips with the fact he killed another man. He and Menace have an emotional discussion about doing what they have to do in the line of duty; about how things aren’t always black and white, and sometimes you have to save a larger number of people by taking out the threat. Menace says it’s like the cupcakes he used to make—He knew they weren’t good, and even though Caleb was embarrassed, he knew he’d be more embarrassed if Caleb showed up without them. Finally, Caleb gets some understanding of who he is, and his job. Caleb makes his own cupcakes, taking them to Ruby and explaining that he understands it’s not what things look like on the outside, it’s what they mean on the inside that matters. He knows who he is, and he knows he’s a good person, no matter what he has to do. A few months later, he proposes in the The Café, at the table where he rescued her from her awful date. The epilogue is set five years later, with them as a married couple, welcoming their second child together.

Ransom Thompson 

For years I’ve wanted two things: to be a member of the Moonshine Task Force and to be the man Stella Kepler can’t live without. 

One out of two isn’t bad, or so I tell myself. Being the only K-9 handler for the MTF presents its own share of obstacles, but me and Rambo? We make it work. Life is status quo, until I’m called in to help with what appears to be a hostage situation and Stella is right in the middle of it. 

This is my one chance, and I’m not going to blow it. 

Stella Kepler 

When I’m stuck in an examination room holding a hurt woman and a man with a gun, I do the only thing I can – I sneak out, call 911, and hope help comes quickly. It does. 

In the form of Ransom Thompson. He and I have known each other since we were babies. Our mothers are friends, our dads work together, and we’ve always been friends. 

Only, the last few months I’ve started to notice things. How mature he is, how alpha he can be, the chiseled six-pack, and the abundance of ink spreading across his body.  

When I offer to cook him dinner for saving me, neither one of us knows how that one moment will change the course of the rest of our lives. 

Summary: 
Laurel Springs Police Department K-9 officer Ransom responds to a call from a local medical clinic about a man with a gun. Inside are his childhood friends, Stella and Kelsea. He’s worried, so he springs into action quickly. Stella is inside the room with the armed man, and thanks to her being calm, she helps Ransom apprehend the man. As a thank you, she offers to make him dinner. When she goes over, she’s introduced to K-9 Rambo; it’s important to Ransom for the woman in his life to get along with his dog. Over time, they start dating, but they don’t want their family in their business. Instead, they keep it a secret. Their fathers are both on The Moonshine Task Force, and they have grown up together. Ransom encourages Stella to follow her dream of going to nursing school, and she does her best to help him deal with the pressures of being an officer in the current political climate. When The Laurel Springs Emergency Response Team is formed, Stella joins with her brother, Nick, as well as Kelsea, and Ransom’s brother Cutter. Ransom and Rambo are in a high-speed chase. Ransom goes after the driver, and Rambo goes after the passenger. A hand-to-hand fight ensues along with shots fired. Both Ransom and Rambo are injured.  

Stella is at the Café when her dad comes in to tell the Café owner, Leighton, that her son, Ransom, has been injured. Stella can no longer keep their relationship from her family. When they get to the hospital, she goes to Ransom, who begs her to go be with Rambo in case something bad happens—he doesn’t want his beloved dog to be alone. Ransom and Rambo come through their respective surgeries, and during his recovery, Ransom realizes how important Stella is to him. Stella get pulled over while driving, and the K-9 unit is called in for a drug sniff. When Ransom and Rambo show up, they treat her like a criminal, until they ‘find’ a package in her car with a ‘will you marry me’ message on it. Of course, she says yes.

One thing my childhood taught me was never show my emotions. Don’t make memories. Don’t count on other people. Don’t hope for the best.

All that changed when I was adopted by Ryan and Whitney Kepler.

Begrudgingly I let them into my life, along with my new sister and a best friend I would lay down my life for. But giving up my heart and accepting love in return from Kelsea Harrison? It’s the hardest thing I’ve ever tried to do.

And the truth is? I’m not sure if I’m that strong.

Kelsea Harrison

From the very moment I met Nick Kepler I knew he would be the love of my life. Problem is I haven’t been able to convince him of that yet.

When our best friends get married, Nick and I spend a drunken night letting our walls down and losing all our inhibitions. In one moment I’m given everything I ever wanted. Then, in the blink of an eye it’s taken away from me.

The question is, can I be strong for the both of us?

The answer? I have to be.

Summary:
Kelsea Harrison has had a crush on police officer Nick Kepler for years. Because he had a horrible upbringing, he doesn’t think he’s worthy of her. At a wedding reception they both attend, she has a little too much to drink, and he can no longer resist her. He and Kelsea end up sleeping together, which pushes them into a pseudo-relationship. Nothing pushes them completely together, though, until he’s called on a child welfare check for Darren Metcalfe. Immediately, he knows the child isn’t cared for. Darren reminds him of himself when he was his age. When Darren is placed in foster care, Nick and Kelsea apply to take him in.  They both know it’ll look better if they are in a relationship. For the good of Darren, they will do anything.

They all live together, doing their best to come together as a family. It’s not easy, as Darren deals with a lot of things Nick has been through—but not dealt with—and Kelsea is doing the best she can to hold everything together. There’s not a tipping point until Darren’s father threatens their happy family. One night Kelsea is with a friend and they see a Laurel Springs Police Car on the side of the road, and an officer down beside it. They stop and realize it’s Nick. Kelsea gets on the radio calling for help, and his brothers all come, knowing Darren’s father did this to him. They get the evidence they need, and while Nick is in surgery, they head out to take care of Darren’s father. He dies when he refuses to surrender to the police. Nick comes home from the hospital and realizes what he’s going to miss if he doesn’t take notice soon. Kelsea and Nick secretly get married right before they officially adopt Darren. They all have the same last name, and their families are there when the judge makes it official.

It’s not how we make mistakes, but how we correct them that defines us…

Karsyn Fallaway

Tucker didn’t stop my car as it drove away from his house that summer night, and the sting of rejection hasn’t gone away.

Over a year has gone by, and I find myself looking for him in all the places he’d been before. It doesn’t help, he’s still an enigma I have yet to figure out.


My friends are the only thing holding me together. Work is the one thing keeping my mind busy. Until my life threatens to tear completely apart.

Tucker Williams

She drove away and my pride wouldn’t allow me to stop her. A year later, regret keeps me up at night, forcing me to replay the moment in my head.

Working with the K-9’s is the only thing keeping me going. Becoming close with the former MTF is a perk I hadn’t counted on.

When a child is kidnapped, all the hard feelings have to be put aside to save a life. Secrets are unearthed, and this time as Karsyn threatens to break, I know I’m the one to put her back together.

Summary:
K-9 trainer and officer Tucker and medical assistant Karsyn were once in a casual relationship, but Tucker caught feelings for her and ended it. A year later, Tucker realizes how much he misses Karsyn in his life. She misses him too, but decides he has to come to her, as she’s already given so much of herself, and she refuses to do it again. They are both members of the Laurel Springs Emergency Response Team, and they are pushed together when the community wants to host fundraisers to get the Laurel Springs Police Department a few new K-9’s. The two of them end up meeting for dinner to discuss what they need to do, and it opens the door for communication. That night, Karsyn gets spooked. When she calls Tucker, he comes for her. They begin a relationship, trying to do better than they did the last time.

Karsyn has to face her childhood trauma when she gets a letter from the Alabama Victims Advocate Services. She was kidnapped as a child, and her kidnapper is up for parole. She and Tucker get closer after she tells him everything that happened, and they go meet an attorney to see what her rights are. Tucker finally admits he loves her, and she tells him she’s never stopped loving him. They host a fundraiser and raise enough money for two new K-9’s. The LSERT gets wind that a prison break is being talked about, and they are all told to be on high-alert in case they’re called in to help. Tucker and Karsyn go to the parole hearing of her kidnapper, Clarence, where Karsyn goes into detail what happened to her. Clarence is denied parole, and they go about their lives. But as it turns out, Clarence is the inmate who escapes from jail, and he immediately takes another girl. Karsyn begs to help, and Tucker goes to bat for her. He tells his superiors he’ll take responsibility for her, and together they help the team of officers track him to a motel in the area. After a chase and a shoot-out, Tucker justifiably kills Clarence. The book ends with Tucker having his K-9 help him propose, and she says yes.

Moving to Laurel Springs and joining the LSERT was the best spur-of-the-moment decision I ever made. Here, out from under the expectations of my Police Chief father, I’m thriving.  
 
I’ve found a boldness and confidence I never had in Paradise Lost.  
 
And a woman who I can’t stop thinking about, dreaming about, and can’t seem to stay away from. Attorney Shelby Bruce knocked me for a loop and my head hasn’t stopped spinning since the night of our ‘friendmas’ Christmas party. 
 
When there’s a physical threat to her well-being, I won’t stop at anything to protect her, even if it means losing a piece of myself in the process. 
 
Shelby Bruce 
 
Houston was my home until the big city reached out and bit me. Laurel Springs is more my speed, and I’ve settled into life here.  
 
A new friend group, building my practice from the ground up, and a smoking hot new love interest has my life extremely busy and full. I’m content. More content than I ever was in my old life. 
 
That all changes when I revise a will for one of the pillars of the Laurel Springs community. Effectively, she cuts her grandson out of her fortune. When he finds out it’s not pretty. 
 
Worse. He blames me.  
 
But something amazing happens. Day by day, I realize the relationships I’ve built within the community and the LSERT are stronger than I ever imagined. Especially when Sullivan Baker saves not only my life, but my heart. 

Summary: 

Sullivan Baker has spent his entire life in the shadows of everyone else’s accomplishments; including those of his Police Chief father, preferred-son-brother, and only-girl-in-the-family sister. He’s always been nothing special. Which is why, when his sister packs up and moves to Laurel Springs, Alabama, to be closer to her boyfriend, he goes with her. He can finally stand on his own two feet with a police force that doesn’t have preconceived notions about him, and a town that doesn’t recognize his last name.  

When he – and also new-to-town-attorney, Shelby Bruce, meet – they feel a connection immediately. However, both have been hurt, and that connection is hard to act on. Little by little, they let one another in, confessing secrets and feelings they’ve never told anyone else before. What begins is a steamy exploration of the people they’ve always wanted to be, but were never given the chance to explore. Their lives intersect, especially when Shelby’s client, Widow Haley, needs to protect her grandson’s wife from his fists. The elderly woman decides to leave her entire fortune to his wife; which angers Frank Gentry immensely. 

Following what’s supposed to be a fun bachelor and bachelorette auction to benefit the Laurel Springs Emergency Response Team, things get dangerous for Shelby. Frank knows he’s no longer set to get the inheritance he’s always thought to be his birthright. Assuming it’s because Shelby has talked his grandmother out of giving it to him, he sets up an elaborate scheme and attacks her, leaving her life hanging in the balance. The last-ditch 911 call she makes brings Sullivan to her in just enough time to save it all from crumbling into ashes by making a choice between her and Frank. The choice is always her, and against his better judgement, he lets Frank go, to save the love of his life.

My coffee shop, A Whole Latte Love, isn’t doing well, but I’m close to turning a profit.

Summary: 
Meredith is trying to figure out how to live her life as a rape survivor. Everyday things scare her, so she’s staying at the clubhouse now. She’s taken up running, and does her best to exorcise the demons she’s fighting. Almost daily, Denise goes with her so she won’t be alone. Tyler is struggling too, worrying about what happened to Meredith, and if Heaven Hill can catch who is responsible. The only thing he knows is he has a huge chip on his shoulder and a rage he’s never felt before. Meredith starts seeing a therapist named Doc Jones. They begin to work on what’s happened to her, teaching her how to be comfortable around me again, how to reclaim her sexuality. During this time, she continues to stay with Tyler and Heaven Hill. They become the family she didn’t know she needed. Doc Jones is helping her reclaim herself, and Heaven Hill is helping her feel safe. Just before Halloween, she goes into a store, and someone in a mask scares her—they remind her of her attacker. That day, she decides to take her life back. She and Tyler think she must have been targeted because of something she was working on as a reporter. Meanwhile, she and Tyler are growing closer. He decides to take her to his home. She’s to the point where she wants to explore getting closer to him sexually, and he wants her to feel comfortable. He talks her through her first sexual encounter after her rape, and from that moment on, they’re inseparable.  

The more she looks into her attack, the more she starts to find out. Namely William, the President of Heaven Hill, may have had something to do with it. Liam and his father don’t get along well, and he wonders if William did, in fact, order the attack on Meredith. One night, while they’re working protection at Wet Wanda’s and Jagger (the prospect) is putting on a show there, Tyler and Meredith are outside with other members of the club. Meredith hears a ringtone, one she recognizes from the night of her attack. It’s very particular, and she tells Tyler that’s the man who attacked her. Tyler tells her to leave, and he takes care of her rapist. When he goes back to Meredith, he’s visibly shaken and needs the comfort he’s found in her arms. He also tells Liam that William was the person who ordered the attack on Meredith, and they have to decide what they’re going to do. Liam takes the rank of president when they oust his dad from the club. Tyler and Meredith elope in Gatlinburg, but instead of rings, they wear necklaces, and don’t tell anyone the truth about if they’re married or not. The story ends with everyone celebrating with a Christmas meal at the clubhouse.

Over late nights driving up and down the interstate and nights in spent at her apartment, Jagger realizes that there is so much more to Bianca than he ever knew. 

When her dream of becoming a school teacher is threatened by someone who wants her all to himself, the two of them are thrown into a dangerous game of cat and mouse.

In times of danger, Bianca and Jagger know the only thing they can do is hold onto each other while trying not to admit they are losing control. 

Summary: 
Jagger, the newest member of Heaven Hill, and Bianca, a woman who works at the club, go on a date after he rescues her from the side of the road, where her car has broken down.  A few weeks later, she gets a job as a substitute teacher at the school where the president of the club’s kids go to school. They start spending more time together at her apartment. One night as Jagger is driving home, a van follows him and sideswipes him. His bike pins him, and he’s not wearing a helmet and hits his head. When Jagger is released from the hospital, he texts Bianca, but sounds abrupt. She doesn’t hear from him for two days. She decides to surprise him with lunch at the club. His attitude is beginning to piss her off and hurt her feelings. He tells her he’s not himself right now. They have lunch and kiss. Jagger stays the night with Bianca, and they have sex for the first time. She feels safe with him and she can let her guard down. No other woman has fit him so perfectly and nothing has ever felt like she does. 

While out to lunch with friends, the waitress passes a note to Bianca from Moneybags (Mr. Tucker). She confronts him and he threatens her and the morality clause she signed- if she doesn’t do what he wants, she will never teach again. The club wants to connect Raymond Tucker and the Vojnik, so they plan to break into Raymond’s house. Layne and Jagger head there and are surprised to find he lives in a middle-class home. They search his locked office and find pictures of Bianca from the club, expense reports from the school he works at, and bundles of cash. As they are leaving, they see Raymond with Dino (the president of the Vojnik). They head to a coffee shop to meet with their sheriff friend Rooster. Rooster agrees to investigate Raymond. He finds a pattern of crime in Bowling Green in the last year—there has been a bank robbery every two months for the past year. They find out that Raymond is skimming off the school board and replacing clean money with the money from the robberies. Rooster calls Jagger the next morning and tells him that they have warrants for Tucker’s house and office and to keep Bianca away from the school. She goes anyway, and is in the library with students when Mr. Tucker comes in and tells her to follow him. He hits her in the face, telling her he is in love with her and she ruined everything by being with Jagger. He pulls a gun and tells her to call Jagger and Rooster and tell them to back off or he will kill her. When Tucker tries to kiss Bianca, she is able to head-butt him and get the gun from him. She gets distracted and they struggle for the gun. He starts choking her, when the club comes in. The club hands Tucker over to the Vojnik- they call a “truce” between the clubs so that the feds don’t get involved. The feds (Rooster backs the club) think that Tucker slipped out the back door. Months later, Jagger and Bianca are still together. Bianca graduates from college, and the club has a party to celebrate.

Some days it’s hard to keep a smile on her face and stay positive, but there are a lot of people counting on her to keep it together. Just when it seems like she’s at the pinnacle of her career, her life takes a turn. She meets a man who challenges everything she knows about herself and makes her question if the life she’s living is for her or for the Nashville machine.

Garrett “Reaper” Thompson is tired. Touring and keeping up appearances with his band “Black Friday” is beginning to wear him out. He’s ready for a change, ready for something different. When he meets Hannah at an awards show, he knows that she’s the one, he knows that he can’t live without her.

The problem?

Their own insecurities, their fans, her ex-boyfriend, and the media themselves. Can they look past it all and come through on the other side? For their story – this is only the beginning.

Summary:
Hannah “Harmony” Stewart is America’s Sweetheart. Garrett “Reaper” Thompson is the bad-boy of heavy metal. When they meet at an awards show, the entertainment world immediately decides they’re the new it couple, and so do they. Instead of denying their attraction to one another, they lean into it, getting fans excited and talk going amongst the paparazzi.

Together they navigate the ups and downs of being a celebrity couple in the world of Instagram, tabloids, and the twenty-four-hour news cycle. This plays a big part in the subsequent books in this series. Hannah had a previous relationship with another singer named Ashton, and it didn’t end well. He was verbally and physically abusive, but made it seem as if she was the reason they broke up.

Because of her previous relationship, Hannah has a skewed view of  not only herself, but her body image. Garrett helps her overcome the insecurities she has, just before they head to Vegas and run into Ashton. When a drunk Garrett meets Ashton in a bar after he makes a comment to Hannah, they get into a fist-fight which leads to Garrett and Hannah admitting their feelings for each other.

At the end of their Vegas trip, they’re supposed to go separate ways, but instead Hannah changes her mind and heads to Garrett’s house in Huntington Beach with him.

Wife
Husband
Superstar entertainers
Two people completely in love

Harmony and Reaper thought life would be easier once they sealed the deal. Stage personas put to the side, settling into marriage should have allowed them to be Hannah and Garrett to the world at large.

Boy, were they ever wrong!

Pressure from record companies, fans, and the people surrounding them put their brand-new union under the strain of the entertainment machine. Long nights apart, quick meetings in hotel rooms, and new faces on the music scene were not what either of them thought they would have to contend with.

When love is strong, emotions go haywire, and frustration is at an all-time high, everyone’s true colors are revealed.

Hannah and Garrett have a decision to make—is fame worth the price of love?

Summary: 
The Price of Love picks up where Only the Beginning left off. Instead of going home to Nashville, Harmony decides to head to Huntington Beach with Reaper. While there they enjoy a little down time, doing things that all normal couples do. One day walking on the beach, Harmony is photographed as wind blows her shirt, causing her to look much bigger than she is, and the media speculates she’s pregnant. This triggers feelings of loathing about her body. She and Reaper become closer as she confides she once had an eating disorder to make her record company happy with the way she looked. Reaper assures her he loves her the way she is, and they elope to Las Vegas.

Although they think getting married will solve all their problems, it leads to a host of others. Not really knowing one another, being separated by recording and touring schedules, and the record company trying to force Harmony to record a song she wrote for Reaper with another hot, young artist. When she stands up for herself, she draws a line in the sand between what she wants, and what’s expected of her professionally.

In the end, the record company gives her what she wants – time with her husband while he tours. It ends with Black Friday taking the stage to a sold-out New Year’s Eve show, Harmony watching from the side, and vowing to put their marriage first.

Her perfect structure was blown to hell on the night Jared OD’d, and now she has to decide if she wants to risk her heart again.

Everett James Thompson

I’ve been in the spotlight since I was born, thanks to my famous parents. Reaper and Harmony have been the gold standard when it comes to celebrity love stories. It’s hard to be in that shadow, to live up to that precedent.

Which is why I stopped trying when my band, Grey Skies hit the big time.

But when I go to Vegas to support my Mom, in her new residency, I have absolutely no idea I’ll leave Vegas with a new pop-star wife.

Brianna Jenkins

As one of the top pop-stars in the world right now, I don’t have time for anything. Much less love, or even a night out.

When my best friend surprises me with tickets to the sold-out Harmony Stewart show in Vegas on my one-off weekend of the month, I’m beyond excited. Especially when we find out our seats are next to her family. Harboring a crush on her oldest son added with a few more drinks than I normally have equals consequences neither one of us bargained for.

The next morning, I wake up no longer Brianna Jenkins, pop star.

I’m Brianna Thompson, member of the new power couple, about to take the world by storm.

Whether we want to, or not.

Summary: 
Everett Thompson and Brianna Jenkins are two of the hottest stars in the world. He as the lead singer of the rock group, Grey Skies, and she as a solo artist. To celebrate her twenty-first birthday, she and her best friend go to Las Vegas to see Harmony (Everett’s mom) perform for her residency.

The next morning Everett and Brianna wake up next to each other, with wedding rings on their fingers. Because they’re on the same record label, they decide to keep them in the marriage, setting them on a course of getting to know each other while being completely in the public eye. They lie, letting everyone think they were dating in secret, instead of telling the truth about a drunken night in Vegas.

Love comes easy for them, but communication doesn’t, and when the record company tries to pit them against each other, they vow to fight back. The record company decides they’d be more famous if they broke up, but Everett and Brianna refuse. Letting go isn’t what they want. What they do want is remain married and build the kind of life for themselves that Everett’s parents built for themselves. Whether the record company likes it or not. Especially when they’re hit with a breach of contract suit.

Author’s Note: The next book picks up right after this. It’s an interconnected trilogy.

Front my own band? Become one of the powerhouses in the metal genre? Make a name for myself without using that of my parents? I’ve done all of it.

But when Brianna Jenkins walked into my life during a Vegas show, I knew without a doubt my carefully laid plans were over.

Getting married to her after a drunken night of debauchery should’ve been the worst mistake of my life. Instead? It’s the best decision I’ve ever made, and our record company thinks so too.

Or they did…

I’ve traveled the world, performed at Madison Square Garden, and sold out arenas everywhere. Nothing ever really made me nervous. That is, until I met EJ Thompson in Vegas. I needed liquid courage to talk to him, and that night changed my life forever.

Gone is the girl under her parents thumb, doing everything the record company tells her, and worrying constantly. In her place is a wife. A woman who knows her worth, standing beside the man who gave her his last name, his ring, and the confidence to let her voice be heard.

When the record company realizes just how much of a power couple we are; they serve us with a summons for breach of contract, expecting us to roll over.

But there’s two things they can’t silence. Our voices, and our love.

In the middle of the stress, they’re trying to figure out how to cope as a couple who don’t have the experience of a long-term relationship. Instead of talking to one another, they argue, having some of their first fights. She sees an uglier side of him, and he sees a stronger side of her.

Regardless of what’s happening in both their personal and professional lives, the world keeps turning. Brianna wins an industry award, they take a vacation together, but there’s always outside influences. Everett goes out for a night on the town with his brother, where he’s photographed with a random girl sitting on his lap.

A forced sentence leads to a reckless passion…

Hadley
When my husband walked out on me over a year ago, it devastated me. When the divorce papers came, it wrecked me. When we had to sell our house, it broke me. 
But then he moved in with his new flavor of the month and told our daughter his new woman wasn’t into children. That pissed me off.

Now Riley feels abandoned, and I can’t make it better; no matter how hard I try. I’m desperate to help her adjust to the loss of a male figure in her life. The Companion Program that matches adults up with children who have loneliness and abandonment issues is my last hope.

The counselors tell me he’s doing community service hours, and I ask to sit in on his meetings with Riley. The minute I see him astride the matte black Harley, I know neither my nor Riley’s life will ever be the same again.

Trick
Community Service. Two words I should be thankful for, but I’m not. I resent the hours away from building my business. The two previous kids I’d been paired up with didn’t work out because their mothers were more interested in getting in my bed than making sure their child was taken care of. This next match with a little girl is my last hope. Unless this kid works out, I’m destined to serve time.

When they push her into the room wearing pink converse with a black dress, her crazy curls barely held back by the barrette in her hair, and studious glasses on her face, I can tell she’s scared – of new people, of change, of being pushed aside. Something inside of me breaks, and I want this girl to feel wanted again.

What I’m unprepared for is meeting her mom. The second our hands touch, I see fireworks, bright lights, and a picture of the future I could one day have. The future I’ve never allowed myself to wish for.

Community service becomes more than a chore, more than the precious hours I have to give up. In the months that follow, I realize Riley and Hadley are just like me; they’ve been abandoned, left behind by the world, forgotten by those who should love them.

Thanks to the one last hope in both our lives – we found the light in the darkness we’d been searching for.

Summary:
Patrick “Trick” Tennyson is an ex-con being given one more shot to stay out of prison by doing one thousand hours of community service. He’s been chosen to work in the Companion Program, where he’s paired with six year old Riley Westin, who is in need of a positive male influence. Riley’s father never wanted kids, and made it well known to her mother, Hadley. Divorced and on her own, Hadley is working two jobs, doing whatever she can to make Riley feel safe and secure, but Trick changes their lives as soon as they’re introduced. Trick quickly falls for the little girl, and is wildly attracted to her mother. Hadley feels the same attraction, which she hasn’t felt with anyone, even when she first met her husband. She and Trick begin a cautious relationship, and within a few months, Hadley and Riley are practically living with Trick and his cat, Tux.

Trick passes a parole hearing, meaning he doesn’t have to go back to jail. He supports Hadley through a surprise custody battle with her ex. Trick is worried about Hadley’s custody case being hurt by her association with him, since he does have a record. Hadley reassures him, as does her attorney—he is now a law-abiding citizen, a business owner, a positive role model for Riley, and an asset to his community. The judge rules in Hadley’s favor. They find out that her ex still doesn’t want Riley, but he wanted some control of Hadley’s life. Hadley and Riley officially move in with Trick, and he proposes to both of them—to Riley with pink diamond earrings, and to Hadley with a matching pink diamond ring. A few years later, the couple reflect on their wedding day, when Trick officially adopted Riley during the ceremony. Hadley is now pregnant with a little boy, and Riley calls Trick ‘dad.’ Together, they get the family they all dreamed of.

Kennedy Donnelly has followed the rules her whole life and been the perfect Irish princess. The one night she decided to break free of her family name and be wild left her with more than she bargained for.

She’s everything he didn’t know he needed. The one who silences his voices. They’ll be sorry they ever touched her.

Ruthless is what he’ll become to save her. To save them. And no mercy will be given.

Summary: 
Zane Savage has been haunted by the carnage of his past for eight long years. He is plagued by recurring nightmares of his failed mission in Afghanistan, where the objective was to retrieve the Admiral’s daughter, Kayla, from a sex trafficking ring. He and his team were ambushed and tortured. He had to watch the enemy behead his best friend, Nelson, and was forced to watch as they took turns sexually assaulting Kayla. That was his breaking point. Zane broke free, killing them all, but unfortunately, Kayla was caught in the crossfire. The guilt over their deaths is the reason that he guards his heart at all costs. Zane believes if you don’t get close to anyone, it can’t be broken. That theory served him well until he met Kennedy Donnelly. She is the only daughter of Finnegan Donnelly, head of the Irish Mob. Their one night together results in a surprise pregnancy, and the two elope to Las Vegas to stop her father from marrying her off to one of his business associates’ sons. When they arrive back home to Atlanta, Zane continues to battle with the need to do right by her and not let his demons from his past touch her or their unborn baby, but they soon come knocking. He and his brothers are hired to bring in the only other surviving member from his team in Afghanistan, Isaac, under the premise that he’s selling state secrets. They soon discover that nothing is as it seems, and Isaac is being set up by the people who tortured them. They’ll stop at nothing to get to Zane, and no one is safe.

Kennedy is kidnapped from her apartment and awakens in a dark basement. Her attacker walks in and reveals that he is Grady, one of the guys in Zane’s unit that was presumed dead. Grady is behind the entire thing, and that is why Zane’s team was caught. He’s angry that Zane has ruined his plans. To get even, he plans to sell Kennedy and her unborn baby off into the dark underbelly of the human trafficking world, where Zane will never find her. Too bad for him, Zane has something he doesn’t—family at his back. He manages to rescue her in time with the help of his brothers and his father-in-law. When he knows that she’s safe back at her father’s house, Zane does what he does best. He gets his ounce of flesh from Grady for all the lives he’s ruined in the only way he knows how—blood. Kennedy, and his daughter she carries, may be the light that keeps the darkness from sucking him under completely, but he will always do what he must to protect them. And be Ruthless.

He’s the rebel of Westbrook high, and I’m merely the annoying goody two-shoes he dubbed the saint.

There must be something wrong with me. After nearly two years of dirty looks and constant humiliation, I’m still crushing on the guy who hated me on sight.

Then he kissed me and instead of the ice-cold gaze I was accustomed to, I saw passion burning behind his dark molten eyes.

Violet St. James doesn’t belong in my world.

Good. Kind. Pure.

She’s everything I’m not.

She doesn’t just look like an angel, she is one. And I’ve fought every impulse to make her mine.

But all my efforts went up in flames the second I tasted her sweet lips. My inability to stay away has changed everything.

She’s determined to break down all my walls, but my little saint doesn’t understand the consequences of her actions.

She tells me she’s not afraid of the fall.

But she should be.

Summary:
Thatcher Michaelson is the notorious rebel of Westbrook High. When he sees Violet St. James for the first time—a girl who radiates innocence and purity—he’s instantly drawn to her, but he doesn’t want to taint her. Thatcher tries to keep his distance, relentlessly teasing her about the very thing drawing him in. Violet doesn’t belong in his world, and he knows it’s best if she despises him. Nearly two years later, all his efforts go up in flames when he gives in to temptation. A touch in an empty stairwell. A kiss in a vacant classroom. A heavy make-out session at a party. Violet soon discovers Thatcher’s cruelty was designed to protect her all along and decides to fight back, determined to break down all his walls.

As she attempts to prove she’s not as fragile as he believes, the wolves of Westbrook High begin to descend. Dirty looks and snide comments from the girls. Unwanted attention from the boys. Even someone she thought was a friend gropes her. When she rebuffs Joey’s advances, he humiliates her in front of their classmates by calling her a tease then insinuating she slept with Thatcher and his best friends. Hurt and angry, Violet lashes out at Thatcher in the middle of class. The girl who never gets in trouble ends up with four days of in-school suspension, but it leads to Thatcher admitting he wants her, and the pair finally begin to date. Thatcher still doesn’t believe he’s good enough for Violet and stays guarded. When she finds out he lied about getting into a fight as well as the consequences, he nearly loses her forever.

I am both heaven and hell. Sin and pleasure. 

The Devil she never sees coming… 

Everyone knows that Malcolm Asher owns Chicago. Nothing—not a single move is made in my city without my authorization. I’m ruthless. Conniving. Worshipped by those around me, and yet, it means nothing the moment my eyes meet hers… 

Clear blue and innocent, the delicate doll on this stage holds me captive against my will. She’s decadence personified—a corruptible angel I want to own. 

I’m hard for her. Starving for a taste. Eager for her to feel me. 

This little girl has no idea of the danger she’s in within my presence. How I will make her crave the darkness I control. 

How I will make her…Mine. 

Summary: 
Malcolm Asher is the king of Chicago’s cutthroat banking industry, and also the money laundering genius for his clientele, most of which reside at the top of wanted lists across the globe. The same night a disciplinary meeting is called and blood is shed, he visits a private club for the wickedly sexual to partake in his favorite pastime: voyeurism. London Foster is young, beautiful, in trouble, and takes the first offered job, no matter what. She’s coveted by her stepbrother in ways that no sibling should be, while her stepfather plans to steal her unknown inheritance before selling her virginal body to the highest bidder. She knows her family’s underground connections and wrongdoings, but takes no part in them.  

Their lives were intertwined via her step-family—an enemy they have in common. Malcolm frees London from her family home and moves her in with him. The more Malcolm digs into London’s past, the more his possessive and protective instincts overtake everything, going as far as keeping a security detail on London at all times. The Fosters stole from them both—Malcolm business-wise, and they are responsible for the death of London’s parents, in addition to the theft of her inheritance—and for that, Malcolm gets revenge by emptying their stolen goods, and injuring them. They don’t stop, striving more than ever to overturn the king and take back London. In a last desperate act, the Fosters work with an overeager FBI agent desperate to take down Malcolm and work together to kidnap London. 

No one is spared when Malcolm locates where they are holding her, and when London pulls the final trigger, ending her stepbrother’s life, she finally feels the strength they’d taken from her return. Days later she puts a bullet into her stepfather. No longer weak, she stands beside Malcolm as his fiancé as she grows into the woman she was always meant to be.

Javier Lucas offers death without mercy—something my enemies don’t live long enough to tell, but the carnage left behind paints a brutal story. I have no soul. No regrets. This is who I am, and I embrace the darkness that flows through my veins while blood stains my skin. 
 
And I’ve never wanted more until… 

Our eyes met and my world took a pause. One flirty exchange and I vowed to tame her wildness. 
 
Fate is a word I now believed in. 
 
Because it led me to her. To my beautiful little criminal.

Javier Lucas is a member of the Lucas crime family—cousin of the current boss—who moves from Colombia to Chicago after receiving a very profitable offer from the CEO of Asher Holdings, Malcolm Asher. He’s to become a contract killer for the Asher family with the title of right-hand in their ranks while keeping his status in his own family back home. A job he accepts with a set return date and the understanding that he’s below no one, but upon arriving, he meets Mariah Asher and his entire focus shifts. For the first time in his life, he finds himself obsessed—chasing the hard-headed woman—and loving each threat she sends his way via a bullet from her gun.

Mariah confronts her feelings for him then, she can no longer deny she’s in love nor the undeniable need to comfort him through this rough time. Not being able to take the separation, she heads to Colombia. 

Their reunion is explosive and full of months of pent-up lust and love. Declarations are shared, his mother is buried, and through it all she is his rock.

After killing the men responsible for his mother’s death, Javier comes back to Chicago after avenging his mother’s death, surprising Mariah with the help of her cousin inside the Asher Holding’s garage. The reunion’s cut short; she’s shot at by her ex-boyfriend’s lover—the same woman currently sleeping with her father. The attempted murder fails when Javier steps in front of her and takes the bullet, his body protecting her. The book ends with her release from custody, rushing to the hospital, and their private wedding while he’s in bed recouping.

The De Leons are a criminal dynasty.

No one makes a single move in South Florida without our knowledge, and yet, it’s not enough.

Not as a man. Not as a boss.

Not when I’ve vowed to lay an entire country at my little Mermaid’s feet.

Every man has a path to walk, and Ivan De Leon’s is set in stone. The price to pay for my decisions has been steep, but the gains are mine to claim, and I will. I’ve killed to be where I am—walked away from the most important person in my life—and now, one phone call changes everything.

Success comes with casualties. Hunger and desperation.

I’ve bled to be worthy of her.

I broke her heart, but I’ll also put it back together again.

My little sirenita. My Amberlyn.

Summary:
Ivan’s the youngest son of the De Leon crime family and the brother of Miami’s king. He’s never been bothered by that, being a right-hand to the boss wasn’t something to frown at, but then he made a huge mistake: you never leave evidence behind. Not that it was on purpose, but to save their father he made it easy for their enemies to pin a murder on his brother. That was five years ago, and the catalyst to another of his biggest regrets: asking the woman he’s falling for to pretend to be his brother’s mistress.

Amberlyn Ibarra has been in love with Ivan since they were teenagers. Blinded by those feelings, she never questioned his actions—she was his silent rock while allowing him into her bed every night. If he needed Amberlyn to pretend she’s nothing more than a family friend in the public eye; she did. If he came stained with blood and needed to satiate his hunger, she didn’t hesitate to allow him access to her heart and body. She’s accepted everything in hopes they’d become more, but that day never comes. Instead, she overhears him saying she’s nothing more than an obligation to his cousin, and her world crashes. Heartbroken, she vows to let him go, but the problem is, he won’t allow that. He’s there. Always hovering close while pulling her in without apology.

Amberlyn is oblivious to the danger that surrounds her and he’s trying to protect her from. Ivan’s made enemies in Cuba—the regime wants his head—and set out to do so by harming her. The Cuban president’s nephews have plans for her, to make her a personal slave, and Ivan moves in silence while eliminating every unknown-to-her enemy. There’s also his move to set up his own empire on the island as a means of storage and a secured route of transport before reaching the US. That ambition is for her, to offer his mermaid the life she deserves, but she’s given the impression he’s seeing someone else and flees. On a rampage, Ivan tracks her down to the Dominican Republic where one of the men sent to kidnap her is making a move. Ivan knocks him out after a beating, reclaims her, and they exchange I love yous before heading to end it all. The couple lands in Cuba and the island is simmering with energy—vibrating as the end to this regime is near and Ivan doesn’t hesitate to confront the president. Although, it’s Amberlyn who pulls the trigger. He loves it and her, and they walk out of the presidential palace with light hearts and eager to start the rest of their lives together. The epilogue is the wedding and there is a bonus scene that covers how they came to make a certain adult toy.

However, she puts all that aside to meet up with her best friend the morning of her 21st birthday after being set up with a business brunch to possibly showcase her art in one of Seattle’s most exclusive and high-end galleries. Not that it matters much as she literally bumps into a God-like man outside the cafe where the meeting is set up. His appearance shakes her, and his scent is something she finds delicious which causes her to forget the world around her.

Theodore Astor has been enamored with Gabriella for far longer than she could comprehend. He’s been following her work, moving every piece into place to make this meeting a reality, even if that means letting Elise (Gabriella’s best friend) believe her plans are working. Theo knows more than he lets on, but his intentions are clear from their first meeting, something that pisses off Elise. He wants Gabriella and begins to insert himself into her everyday life. Showing up at the perfect time and often becoming her hero when it becomes apparent that more than one set of eyes is watching. And it’s that protective side that brings out the darkness in him as KING. King becomes her shadow. Always watching. Always vigilant and willing to kill to protect what’s his.

Bodies begin showing up and macabre presences make themselves known. Gabriella’s forced to open her eyes and deal with a past she hasn’t remembered—to accept that the craziness around her and the one person she believed to be a friend, is an enemy. However, she’s not alone and after the final attempt is made on her life, Theodore shows her who he is. He kills for her—in front of her—and when his two fangs pierce the neck of a man sent to kidnap and then sell her off overseas, her world snaps. She has no choice but to learn of a world where vampires, werewolves, and witches exist. And when she does, Theo bites her and reclaims his wife and queen to all vampires. Her memories come back, and she remembers that Elise’s father killed her over a hundred years ago, leaving her mate to mourn their love. Gabriella’s been reborn, a pact made by her husband with the god of death, to bring her back. Her true family is also alive and some of her closest friends—her protectors—are serpent shifters who have been keeping her safe without her knowing. They head to Alaska where Elise ran off to hide and she kills her, using her powers to unbind her soul to this world. The epilogue takes you to a few months in the future where she finds out her sister is missing, which is the premise for book two.

Blurb:
There’s no one above a KING…

And yet, I’m restless.

I’m an uncontrollable beast that throbs in time with the heartbeat lulling me closer while a sweet, feminine scent overtakes my senses. I’ve never felt this before—a hunger so frenzied that I’m lost to its call. This siren’s song is solely meant for me, and I give in without pause or question.

Because I know and accept.

A single drop of blood running through her veins is worth more than every soul walking this earth. She is now what tethers me to this world.

And the second I see her face, I’m done for. Nothing fucking matters.

I AM DARKNESS.

I AM SIN.

I AM YOURS.
I’ll live and breathe for my Queen. My pretty girl.

Summary:
Death looms over the wiccan kingdom and their king makes the only move he has left in his arsenal out of desperation. With the gift of sight, he knows who his daughter’s fated mate is, and bets on the Vampire King’s help to save her. Many covet her powers, the ability to give and take a life, and he fears for her safety the most as her stubbornness will be the likely cause of her demise. His other children will be safe, their paths are already set in stone, but not his Gabriella.

Theodore Astor is demanding, a bit cruel, but takes care of every member of his kingdom. Ruling with an iron fist, he’s not afraid to end a life, and more so, when the opportunity to control Gabriella is presented. He has no idea of their ties—the bond created by the Gods themselves—and sets out to destroy those responsible for the death of the wiccan warlock while claiming her as his new pet. Coven after coven falls, his quest leaving a bloody trail of destruction in his search for Gabriella who hides herself and siblings outside of Italy. Not that she stays there for long as her clairvoyant sister announces their return after the last coven is annihilated by who Gabriella believes is the vampire king, leaving her no choice but to confront the man and try to set up an alliance.

When Theo sees Gabriella for the first time, he’s overwhelmed—his world is overturned the second her scent greets his senses. Then again, the king bends the knee for her within seconds of entering his bedroom where she awaits his return after walking into his castle without being stopped. Her magic infused blade is at his throat, her intent clear, yet his heart is accepting—his focus is on her safety and that of her people as she’s his responsibility. Though she fights the instant connection, it’s not long before her body gives in, and her heart follows after. They waste no time in accepting the other, but not everyone in his kingdom is happy that their king has found a mate, and a witch no less. There are those that wish to see her dead while another takes her place, and while the couple seeks to end the suffering of her people, the enemy in his kingdom begins to move forward with the help and lies of the Fae King who seeks to end all monarchs, but his. A plan is set into motion when Theodore leaves for a meeting and comes back to find his mate on the ground, bleeding, and unable to heal herself. His general, an arrogant and ambitious fool, is being held by the same men he’s trained for battle. The general wanted his daughter to be Theo’s mate, yet never foresaw his demise at his king’s hands right before Gabriella took her last breath. Everyone mourns with their king, yet another steps forward to bind her soul to the earth while an agreement is made with the God of Death who grants her return. A return Theo awaits, no matter how long it takes, he will have his queen back. Epilogue and Outtake outline her rebirth and the day she announces her pregnancy, something Theo never imagined would be in the cards for them.

I’M A BEAST.

UNTAMED.

WILD.

I have no need for a mate, much less a witch. Her kind is untrustworthy and cruel, yet this one beckons me, and the pull is near volatile. My wolf thirsts for her pinned beneath us while my teeth break flesh—mark her as ours.

Rejecting her is right, but at what cost?

It’s the first time the animal and I are at odds. A KING does not bend the knee.

Yet this is a simmering thirst I’ve fought to keep locked away; it doesn’t get to come out and play often, but I do enjoy the moments when I let go of the reins. Each time we meet, I crave more. Each time she gives me her back while walking away, the walls I’ve erected in her name break until what’s left is wrapped around her slim finger.

I am her rage. She is my goddess.

Together they create what I am: a vengeful animal determined to protect what’s mine.

Summary:
Isabella Moore is a powerful witch—a seer—and the daughter of the fallen Wiccan King. They were murdered, slaughtered by their people, and her powers weren’t able to save them. If she had, more deaths would’ve become a reality, the most important being her twin. Everyone has a path to follow and she is their caretaker in a sense, the guide toward their happily-ever-after, even if the path is paved by many tears. She’s also been keeping a very important secret: for a year, she’s dreamed of her mate. The one man created to be her other half—her shoulder to lean on—but he hates her. He abhors what she is, even if it’s all based on lies and the deception of those, he holds dear.

Xadiel Evergreen is the Alpha King of all werewolves. He is strong, handsome, and obsessed with the destruction of those he holds responsible for the death of his mother. He’s tracked witches and tortured a few, but all remain silent on their queen’s whereabouts. His rage is near uncontrollable—the thirst for vengeance dominating him—but then he meets his mate. The gorgeous woman is bathing in a lake, pretending not to notice him, and right when he steps toward her, Xadiel realizes what she is. A witch. He walks away, determined not to claim her, but the little beauty consumes his every thought. Time passes, but the yearning becomes unbearable and they meet through dreams and physically a few times. Yet, it’s on the last encounter that it all comes to ahead.

Isabella warned him; three times we would meet and on the last rejection, I will walk away. However, she’s stopped and is helpless to leave when the voice of his mother begs for help. She’s not dead. Instead, she’s been held prisoner all this time by his aunt and his Beta. They framed the Royal Wiccans for this betrayal and all to keep him away from his mate. They are working under the Fae King, a man hellbent on obtaining Isabella for his use, all with the promise of riches and to be placed as the new king and queen of wolves. However, it never comes to be as Isabella finds his mother, clears her family’s name, and then divulges something he was unaware of. The woman he searched for is dead and guilt slams into his chest with the force of a battering ram. From that moment he vows to make things right. Follows her everywhere she goes, and that includes back home to lay her parents to rest. The sight humbles him. He apologizes and regains her love with patience and true kindness. Xadiel’s loyalty is tested a final time at the sentencing of his betrayers and he chooses Isabella—tells every member of his kingdom he’d kill for her. That’s all she needed to hear, the final wall crumbles, and she accepts him and his bite. Xadiel marks her, they exchange I love yous, and then her sister is killed. The epilogues contain her Luna ceremony and then her goodbye letter. She’s been kidnapped which sets up the next book.

The last place Sophia Lancaster wanted to return to was Poplar Falls. It’s the place that holds all the painful memories and unanswered questions she’s ever had. One phone call causes her life to take a turn, forcing her back to the town she hasn’t stepped foot in over twenty years. 

And right into the path of Braxton Young. 

His blue eyes, sinful smile, and rough exterior are no match for Sophia. She’s there for one reason, and it isn’t to fall in love. The sooner she can get out of this small town and back in New York City—the better. 

However, fate doesn’t care for either of their desires. Instead, they’re forced to deal with each other, finding their differences aren’t as great as they thought. Each day brings them closer to friendship and the possibility of something more. The answers she seeks might not only break her and Braxton apart but also her heart. 

Summary:   
Sophia Lancaster lives in New York City, where she runs a successful jewelry design business with her friend, Charlotte. Sophie’s mother, Vivian Marshall, stole her away from her childhood home, Rustic Peak Ranch in Poplar Falls, Co, in the middle of the night when she was twelve years-old and raised her in NYC under the assumption that her father, Jefferson Lancaster, had been caught in an affair with a ranch hand’s sister. Sophie longed for her father to come get her and take her back to her home, her best friend, and her pregnant horse. He never came, and word reached her that he had married the mistress and taken in her niece and nephew to raise as his own when their parents died in a tragic accident. Vivian is also re-married, to a wealthy businessman, and Sophie adores her step-father, Stanhope Marshall. One afternoon, Sophie gets a call at her office from one of her father’s sisters. Her grandmother passed away and she is asked to come back to Poplar Falls to pay her respects and because Gram included her in her will. Sophie is hesitant but curious and ready to face her father and get the closure she has longed for. The resentment and hurt she holds toward him affects all her relationships and she needs resolution to move on. Vivian is nervous and unhappy that Sophie is returning home and tries her best to talk her out of it because she knows her daughter is going to find out about the secrets she has been keeping all these years.  

Once back in Poplar Falls, Sophie has to face the family that replaced her. She has pre-conceived notions of who they are, and has an internal battle with herself once she gets to know them. They are kind and welcoming, and it is hard to continue hating them. Braxton Young is the nephew her father raised and he now helps run the ranch. He instantly dislikes Sophie because he thinks she is a snob who looks down on him and his family and that she is only there for a money grab after Gram’s death. During her stay, however, the family starts to see the wonderful woman Sophie actually is, and Sophie starts to see that she has been hating them unjustly. She reconnects with her hilarious best friend from childhood, Dallas Stovall and grows close to both her and her six-year-old son, Beau. An attraction grows between Sophie and Braxton and they begin to let their walls down and slowly fall in love. There is a strong family and community in Poplar Falls: aunts, grandparents and friends that Sophie also grows close to in the few weeks she is there. She finds out she was never forgotten and always missed and Gram has been putting her share of the ranch’s profits in an account for her all these years. She helps her aunts try to fumble through running the office tasks of the ranch. She bonds with Elle, Braxton’s little sister. She grows to love her home again. It takes a long time for her to reconcile with her father. They tip-toe around one another. The secret that it was her mother who was actually caught cheating comes out, and he explains the circumstances he was in that prevented him from coming after them when they left. In the end, Sophie chooses to stay in Poplar Falls with Braxton and her family much to Vivian’s dismay. In the epilogue, Braxton asks Jefferson for his daughter’s hand and then proposes with his mother’s ring.

When I returned to Poplar Falls six years ago, I’d given up on love. I’d made the mistake of marrying the sexy rebel right out of high school. He’d ended up in jail. I’d ended up pregnant.

I’ve always loved my life and career. That was until my boss, best friend, and partner in crime, fell in love during a trip to her hometown and made me become a bougie cowgirl. It only took a few visits to the sleepy town of Poplar Falls for me to understand the draw.

So here I am, fighting the two girls that live inside of me. One who loves the glitz and glamour of NYC and thrives in the fast-paced world of the Upper East Side. Then the other who longs to be wild and free in the laid back mountains of Colorado with the people who have become like family. One in particular.
Payne Henderson was only supposed to be a fun fling, a hot man to scratch my cowboy itch. I didn’t realize I was falling so hard for him until it was too late to stop the ride and get off unscathed.  

Now I have a decision to make. Do I confess my love and reveal the stripped-down version of me, scars and all? Or do I let him go and head back to the comfort of my big city life?

Sometimes you have to lose control to have it all…

I’ve always longed to start a family of my own. I throw everything I have into every relationship. Too bad I seem to attract the fixer-uppers. You know the type—the boys with all the potential but none of the drive. I thought Ricky was different, the one who would finally step up and be the man I’d been dreaming about all these years—ever since I lost my father when I was a little girl. I didn’t realize the dream would turn out to be a nightmare.

So here I am. Twenty-four years old, on the verge of divorce, and trying not to think about what my daddy would say while I hold on to the last threads of my life to keep it all from unraveling.

It’s all going fine until Foster Tomlin swaggers into my life. The sexy-as-sin former soldier works on my best friend’s family ranch, and there’s no getting around him or what I’m feeling. He doesn’t need fixing up. He’s perfect the way he is. The way he looks at and treats me makes me feel things I’ve sworn off for good. And when he wraps his arms around me, I find myself letting go of all the things I thought I wanted and needed.

The question is…can I take a risk and put my heart on the line again?

Blurb:  
Hawk Tanner is not a man of many words—especially if you’re a silly girl getting a silly tattoo in his shop. The owner of Bird’s Eye Tattoo Studio doesn’t want you to tip him with your phone number or flirty glances. He’s tired of all the wrong women wanting him for all the wrong reasons. 

Drew Ashby has no time—for anything. As a recently-divorced single mother, her focus is on finding a job, caring for her daughter, and rebuilding some semblance of a life after hers was wrecked. 

When Drew lands a job at Bird’s Eye, sparks don’t immediately fly. She can’t deny the fact that her boss is a delicious specimen of a man. His tattoo-covered skin might even drive her wild, but his brooding presence and set jaw make him hard to read. 

That is, until he drops the bad boy persona and starts making moves on her—kind and caring gestures she doesn’t expect. 

Things turn hot, and just when Drew thinks everything is finally going right, life does what it does best: It throws her a curveball from her past. 

Bird’s Eye might not be the family Drew envisioned for herself, but ideals can change in a heartbeat. There’s no doubt Hawk is the man she wants, but can he step up and be the man she needs? 

Summary: 
Hawk Tanner is the owner of Bird’s Eye Tattoo Studio, which also employs Will Archer, Avery Fletcher, and Hanson Serrano. His brooding manner and reserved nature doesn’t make all the women who come in less interested. But he isn’t into those games. He’s pretty well off financially and women tend to be interested for all the wrong reasons. When Drew Ashby strolls into the shop for a job interview, he’s caught off guard by the presence of her daughter, Ava, but ultimately relates, as he was also raised by a single mom.  

Once she starts working there, things heat up between the two, although it’s clear Drew has a lot of reservations, given she’s fresh off a painful divorce and worried about letting anyone close to her daughter. Hawk begins to show a very different side of himself to her and Ava, a very gentle and caring one very few people get to see. After several meaningful dates, and just when things seem to be going very well, Drew’s ex-husband who is a lawyer, Curtis, shows back up insisting they get back together, and that he wants to take them home. Drew asks Hawk for a few days to deal with this, to think about everything, but her plan is to ultimately show Curtis they shouldn’t be together. Hawk shows up at her apartment, kicking himself for retreating, and insisting they be together. Curtis threatens to petition the court for Ava and use his power as a lawyer to make Drew’s life a nightmare. Hawk promises him he will spend all his time fighting that, even if it costs him his entire bank account, which is large. Curtis backs off and Drew and Hawk are finally able to move on together. There’s a double epilogue, where you see Hawk and Drew married, giving birth to their son, and then also Hawk officially adopting Ava as his own.

She’ll get the company board off her back by giving them exactly what they asked for, and watch them eat their words. What could possibly go wrong?

Blurb:  
Single father, member of a local motorcycle club, bar owner…and currently looking for an accountant. 

In another life, he was someone I’d stay away from. 

Not because of his tattoos, his past, or even the messy single-parent drama. 

It was his looks that would have kept me away. 

Dark blonde hair, mussed and unfairly perfect, lake green eyes, and that strong jaw that could easily cut glass. Don’t even get me started on those dark jeans that were always straddling his chrome bike and the white t-shirt he wore that barely fit his sculpted arms. 

He was too much. 

It didn’t help matters that he was also a massive jerk. 

But in this life, the one where I was broke and unemployed…he was my best shot. 

All I had to do was resist his adorable kids, deny their movie night invitations, and under no circumstances crawl onto their trampoline and stargaze with them and their dad.  

I had a plan, a way to keep my distance but I had never been great at following my own advice.  

Maybe if I had been, I wouldn’t have found myself being used as a pawn between a notorious biker gang and the man who was slowly claiming my heart. 

Summary:

After being thrown together time and time again, Jimmy finds himself fighting his attraction to Ramsey, and what’s worse there seems to be a war brewing in the ranks of his motorcycle club.  

They’re demanding he assist them in moving illegal product or they’ll take someone from him. Jimmy sets up a sting operation with a detective, which leads to the leader kidnapping Ramsey in retribution. Once she’s free, Jimmy stays away from her out of guilt. Until he reads a memoir from his late mother, which makes him go to Ramsey and ask that she forgive and take him back.
