New York Knights

Discover a world of power, filth and depravity in the steamy and thrilling New York Knights series. The saga continues with this captive romance. I'm used to living a lonely, isolated life. I'm nothing more than a dirty little secret, and a pawn used in a twisted game of power. My half-brother is saddled with the burden of taking care of me, making sure I don't land in the hands of our enemies. While he's away on his honeymoon he hires a bodyguard to take care of me. Davis Cooper, AKA the hot as hell ex-FBI agent. My attraction to him is instant, but his cold disregard for me is annoyingly obvious. It triggers the rebel in me, and fuels me into doing things a girl like me should never do. Childish? Maybe. But behind the stone-cold façade Davis wears so well I can see there's a warm-blooded man waiting to devour me. He just needs a little nudge in the right direction--my direction. Unfortunately, I manage to land myself in a heap of trouble. Now, what started out as little game of push and pull between us, changes into a bloody game of survival. This is book three in the New York Knights series with interlinking storylines. Captive Night shouldn't be read as a standalone and is the continuation of a five book series about the alpha protectors of Hart Corporation.

Love and “happily ever after” have no place in my life. Motherhood and marriage defined me. Now divorced by choice, I’ve reinvented myself, pouring my heart into my business. Then Samson Beaulieu walks into my life and turns everything upside down. Instead of running, I indulge in him. He’s delectable and fun and that’s all we can ever be. Because there’s no doubt this younger, sexy man will break my heart. I’m what you’d call a reluctant celebrity. Cooking is my passion, but fame is a constant with foodies flocking for selfies and autographs. Then Olivia Cassidy walks into my restaurant and turns everything upside down. She gives me a chance, but not her heart. And that’s not good enough. I want her more than any restaurant or TV deal. Walking away isn’t an option.

Made to Love

I’m screwed. Drew Hayes just showed up on my doorstep. My brother’s best friend. The love of my life. My ex. He gave me the only thing I’ve ever wanted, his heart. Only to dump me six months later. Five years have passed and I’m married now. But when I tell him to leave, he does the opposite. He storms into my life, tears down my walls, and demands the one thing I won’t ever give him again. My love. He’s my past. I can never trust him, not after he destroyed me. Yet every time I look into his eyes, I see my future. Note: previously published as Love Lock. *Contains sensitive topics that may upset or offend readers, especially those who have previously experienced domestic abuse.*

My life has been destroyed by two men. One, my hero. The other, my worst nightmare. I taste the bitterness of betrayal every day as my body bleeds, suffering the touch of my enemy. It’s a fate chosen for me by others and it’s not something I can escape. At least, not yet. I’m determined to survive, my need for vengeance feeding me. I’ll play this game until every piece is in place so I can break them all. My plan includes Rylan Wolfe, the FBI agent eager to strike a deal. I give him the information he needs to take down a criminal threat, and he gives me the satisfaction of bringing my enemies to their knees. But my hunger for justice won’t be sated until they’ve burned to ash. And for my plan to succeed I have no choice but to deceive Rylan—the one man who manages to thaw the ice in my veins. In the end I’ll have to decide whether the revenge I’ve dreamt of for so long is worth losing the man who might be able to free my heart.

Reckless Night

I learned the hard way that there are no happy endings in life. I lost everyone I cared for, and now I’m nothing but a hardened man. My job is the only thing that helps me forget the emptiness, it’s constantly on the verge of swallowing me whole. Then unexpected news sends me in a tailspin. At the same time, my past walks back into my life with clicking heels and a feisty attitude. Mia St. John is the girl I spent one mind-blowing night with in college. Only for her to vanish the next day without a word. And now she’s the accused in my current assignment. She claims she’s innocent, yet I sense there is more. I want answers, and it’s got nothing to do with the job. But the more I push, the more I realize what I really want is another shot. Another chance at making her mine. There’s just one problem. She’s hiding something. I can see it in her eyes, an inferno of secrets…and it’s threatening to burn us both to ash. This is the fifth and final book in the New York Knights series with interlinking storylines. Broken Night shouldn't be read as a standalone and is the conclusion of a five book series about the alpha protectors of Hart Corporation.
