Book 1 of 5 | Romantic Suspense | Hurt/Comfort | Trauma | Age Difference
The Auctioned Series is a journey packed with action, nail-biting suspense, family, and love. In Gray and Darius’s fight for freedom and a future where they aren’t haunted by the ghosts of their pasts, they’ll make you laugh, cry, swoon just a little bit, and probably yell at your e-reader.

Gray Nolan was just another happy-go-lucky college dude when his ordinary existence got interrupted, and he became a human trafficking statistic. He didn’t know where in the US they kept him, or if he was even still there. Or if it mattered… He just wanted to die.

After several weeks of abuse, he and seven other young men were taken aboard a luxurious yacht where they were to be auctioned off to the highest bidder. Beaten, shattered, and all but defeated, Gray watched his buyer step out of the shadows in a swirl of his own cigarette smoke.

Darius Quinn had vowed never again to find himself in a situation like this. His days as a private military contractor were over. No more missions, no more risks, no more personal attachments. Yet, here he was, after weeks of searching, face-to-face with his broken prize.

It was time to get the knucklehead back to his family. 

Quick and easy was Darius’s plan. Then everything went sideways.

This story takes place in Cara Dee’s Camassia Cove Universe, a fictional town where all books/series’ stand on their own, unless otherwise stated. The Auctioned Series should be read in the following order: Auctioned, Stranded, Deserted, Played, and Finished.

The complete Northern Wolf series all in one boxset. Over 1500 pages of award-winning military historical fiction. Perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell, Ralph Peters, Michael Shaara, Griff Hosker, and Matthew Harffy.

A broken man will be forged in the flames of war.

Johannes Wolf. Immigrant. Soldier. Unlikely Hero — Wolf's company are the kind of men that get the dirty work done needed to win the war that divided America. Ride through the American Civil War with Wolf’s motley crew of daring Union raiders, and enjoy fast-paced, non-stop war fiction at the pointy end of a saber!

Northern Wolf - A maimed young man with no prospects swindles his way into the Army of the Potomac, and along with a host of green recruits is placed into the Michigan Cavalry Brigade. Riding for Gettysburg, they find themselves holding the rear of the Union line and face to face with JEB Stuart and his Invincibles.

Northern Hunt - Johannes Wolf has made a crucial mistake. He's volunteered for a secret raid, dragging along with him, his unit of misfits. They fall under the command of Colonel Ulric Dahlgren and set out on a quest for redemption and vengeance that will strike at the head of the Southern Cause.

Northern Blood - In the Spring of 1864, a daring raid is devised to draw the Confederate cavalry into a winner-take-all showdown. The Union needs a group of soldiers just brazen enough to do it or die trying. Libby Prison's most recent escapee, Johannes Wolf, and his unit of misfits, might just be the ones to get the job done - if Red Shirts don’t kill them first.

Northern Dawn - Promoted, Wolf finds himself in the hot seat of the largest all-cavalry battle of the war near Trevilian Station. Isolated and surrounded can they survive the coming Southern storm? Or will they be overrun and annihilated, a mere footnote in history?

Northern Shadows - With the surrender of Robert E. Lee,Wolf's war isn't over. Diehard rebels still operate in the field, led by the secret organization the Knights of the Golden Circle. Their plot? Kill the president and let the war rage on. Wolf and his men rush to Washington, D.C., to meet the enemy head-on. But these enemies do not march and fight as armies do; they lurk in the shadows waiting to strike.

One chance to take back what’s his…or lose it all forever.

Be it a Black Ops mission or woman’s desires, there’s no challenge Hunter McCabe will back down from—and that may just be the death of him. Especially when he takes a secret mission from his best friend’s private security company without fully understanding what’s at stake. What’s supposed to be a simple job gathering intel turns complicated when his target’s niece, Petra, arrives in town for the summer, rattling everything he thought he knew about his resolve.

Petra is all innocence and sweet curves and way too good for him, which is exactly why he should resist her. No matter how hot their chemistry, he can’t allow his desires to compromise the mission or put Petra in danger. And yet, when she opens that sassy mouth of hers and refuses to stay out of trouble…his steely determination falters.

When a hidden element takes Hunter by surprise, turning the case, and his heart, upside down, Hunter is forced into a deadly game of cat-and-mouse, with Petra as the bait. Now the timer’s ticking down, closing off all his options. If Hunter can’t find a solution, he won’t just fail the mission.

He’ll fail the only woman capable of healing his broken soul.

It's a hot, humid July night in New York City. Where were you when the lights went out?

As Zapped begins, the Reillys return home from a summer weekend to the loft in Tribeca they are in the agonizing process of renovating and expanding. They are looking forward to a quiet supper on their newly acquired rooftop terrace. But it's not meant to be. While Jack goes to pick up Chinese food, Regan enters their apartment, unaware that a nervous thief, who preceded her by minutes, is hiding in the front closet. A thief who knows about a hidden safe that Regan and Jack have yet to discover. Minutes later, the blackout strikes, and both Reillys are called into action.

A new gallery in SoHo, featuring treasured glass sculptures from all over the world, has been burglarized. As head of the NYPD Major Case Squad, Jack oversees several departments. Art theft is one of them.

PI Regan hears from her best friend, Kit, who is in Manhattan on business. She's been abandoned at a comedy club by a colleague from an insurance convention, Georgina Mathieson, who ran out for a cigarette moments before the blackout struck and never came back. Kit gets a call that Georgina is disturbed and dangerous. Fueled by her rage at a college boyfriend who dumped her, Georgina seeks revenge on unsuspecting young blond men. She was last seen getting into a cab outside the club—with a tall blond. Regan heads the search for Georgina and her potential victim.

Meanwhile, Lorraine Lily, an almost famous actress, returns to New York City the night of the blackout, after spending three months in England doing a play, and is informed by her estranged husband, Conrad Spreckles, that he'd sold his loft to their next-door neighbors, the Reillys. Lorraine had never told him about the hidden safe she'd had installed in the closet. If she doesn't get back what's in there, she's sure her budding career will be ruined.

In Zapped, Clark takes readers on a tour of the city they won't forget and introduces them to a wonderful cast of colorful, eccentric characters whose stories intersect in precarious and often humorous ways during one very dark and hot summer night.

"This series is getting better and better." - Amazon Reviewer

Catriona is having a strange year. First, she found a dazed Highlander on the Hollywood studio lot where she works as a fixer and now it seems she and that big hunk of haggis are supposed to save the world from corrupted time travelers bent on destroying humanity.

She doesn't remember signing up for any of this...

When an insidious television personality reveals himself as more evil than anyone imagined and Catriona's crazy father Rune escapes, Catriona, Brochan, and their mysterious new friends, Anne and the Angeli, rush to stop the two from combining forces to create an army of darkness.

In the first book in a brilliant new fantasy series, books that aren't finished by their authors reside in the Library of the Unwritten in Hell, and it is up to the Librarian to track down any restless characters who emerge from those unfinished stories.

Many years ago, Claire was named Head Librarian of the Unwritten Wing-- a neutral space in Hell where all the stories unfinished by their authors reside. Her job consists mainly of repairing and organizing books, but also of keeping an eye on restless stories that risk materializing as characters and escaping the library. When a Hero escapes from his book and goes in search of his author, Claire must track and capture him with the help of former muse and current assistant Brevity and nervous demon courier Leto.

But what should have been a simple retrieval goes horrifyingly wrong when the terrifyingly angelic Ramiel attacks them, convinced that they hold the Devil's Bible. The text of the Devil's Bible is a powerful weapon in the power struggle between Heaven and Hell, so it falls to the librarians to find a book with the power to reshape the boundaries between Heaven, Hell….and Earth.

Frying pan to fire…

Having discovered they are trapped within an arena their only hope of survival lies in escaping beyond the arena boundary.

Easier said than done. The powers that be that are keeping them occupied and trapped are hot on their tail and able to track their every move. Between injuries and a traitor in their midst the enormity of what they’re up against seems to grow with every passing hour.

The odds of survival keep weighing against them, yet somehow they’re still alive, and that in itself is perhaps a clue to what the hell is going on.

If you liked Maze Runner, Aliens, The Hunger Games, Lost or Firefly, you’re going to love this psychological sci-fi mystery.

Orpheus is not interested in inheriting his father's throne. He wants nothing more than to use music to bring joy to his fellow mortals. Jason believes that nothing is more important than wresting his father's throne from a usurper. He wants to perform heroic feats that will earn him as much glory as possible. Under ordinary circumstances, Orpheus and Jason would probably never have met. Certainly, they would never have been allies. But scheming gods plunge them into adventures greater than either of them has ever imagined. Both of them want to achieve their respective dreams. But facing hostile armies, monsters, and even conflicts among the gods will force them into horrible dilemmas. Will they sacrifice their dreams, or will they die trying to preserve them?

Escape to Marigold Island, a charming New England town with a cast of characters who will come to feel like old friends!

Lydia Walker and Angela Collins both need a fresh start.

A year ago, Lydia became a widow at thirty-eight when she lost her beloved husband to cancer, and despite the support of her friends and her teenage daughter, Holly, she’s had a hard time moving on from the loss. She feels stuck, uncertain of how to carry out her husband’s final wish that she do something that scares her.

Angela Collins has what seems like the perfect life—a beautiful little boy, a loving husband, and a good career. But that all comes crumbling down when she returns home early one afternoon and discovers that her husband is having an affair.

Struggling with grief and loss, both women head to Marigold Island, an idyllic small town with white sand beaches and happy childhood memories.

A chance meeting between the two old friends sparks an idea that’s as exciting as it is terrifying. They decide to buy the historic Beachside Inn, renovate it, and re-open it.

Along the way, they’ll encounter a cranky landscaper who may have a soft side hidden beneath his gruff exterior, plumbing mishaps, old acquaintances, and unexpected competition from a big hotel.

Will Lydia and Angela get the second chance they’re hoping for? Or will their dreams of re-opening the Beachside Inn be dashed before they even get off the ground?

This book doesn't specify who has passed. It could be a mother, father, grandparent, sibling, friend, or any other loved one, even a pet.

The loss of a loved one can be tough for anyone to deal with. This children’s picture book is to help young kids cope with the death of a loved one.

The last two pages are intended for kids to write or draw a picture of their favorite memories in the actual book.

A cold hearted alien... scorching hot chemistry... and a fated mate bond too strong to be denied!

There's nothing left in Raze. No love, no hate, nothing except the duty that he owes his people. But when he meets a fascinating and tough human woman on a barren planet something deep inside comes back to life and for the first time in years he yearns for more.

When a mission for the Sol Intelligence Agency gets out of hand, Sierra will need to use every skill she has and work with a mysterious alien warrior who awakens an unquenchable desire within her. He’s cold and forbidding, but when he looks at her there’s a fire in his eyes that opens up a whole world of possibilities.

The chemistry between Raze and Sierra is too hot to ignore, even if it should be impossible for a mate bond to form between them. But if Raze's emotions fully return before he claims his denya, he might end up dead for good. There is no fighting destiny, especially for a doomed Detyen, and Raze already cheated fate once. To be with Sierra he'll have to do it again, or neither of them will make it out alive.

The Detyen Warriors series brings you kick butt heroines, alpha alien heroes, fated mates, and relationships strong enough to span the galaxy!

A Metaverse Time-Travel Thriller!!!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "This was an amazing book. I didn't want to stop reading. I couldn't set it down. It had me on the edge of my chair all the way through the book."

If you like original sci-fi thrillers, thought-provoking plot points, and underdog heroes, you will love this best-selling, unique time-travel series from profound author Perry C. Daniels.

Octavius Gray just wanted his family back together, and he did whatever it took to make that happen. It was once he discovered a digital time machine hidden in the Metaverse that he seized the perfect opportunity to finally have what he once lost.

First, it was desire. Second it was a means. Paired with desperate will power, he's created a loop, and he has no choice but to relive his mistakes and dabble with a mystery that is time itself, over and over, until he gets what he wants.

But when he uses up all his chances, and the vortex begins, it'll take all his wits and determination to get time to lull.

A lady companion, an arrogant earl – should she save him from a horrid fate?

Giles, the Earl of Bargrave, does not want to be in London but since he has promised to chaperone his niece, knows he must keep to his word. Frustrated that the girl has also brought a companion, Giles does his best to ignore her, often reminding her harshly that he is well able to chaperone his niece without her aid.

Miss Emma Lawder has never had a London Season and doubts she will ever have one. Sent away as a companion by an uncaring father, Emma struggles against the earl’s displeasure. When, by chance, she uncovers a plot to ensnare him into marriage, Emma must choose just what she will do next. Will she tell him the truth or leave him to his fate? And can they find a way together that might just soften both of their hearts?

In this witty and heartfelt rom-com debut for fans of Jasmine Guillory, Emily Henry, and Tessa Bailey, an Indian American woman signs herself and her boyfriend up for a matchmaking site to prove they're a perfect match, only to be paired with her ex instead.

High school sweethearts Rita Chitniss and Milan Rao were the golden couple, until the day he broke her heart. Now, six years later, Rita has turned her passion for furniture restoration into a career and has an almost-perfect boyfriend, Neil. The last thing she needs is for Milan to re-enter her life, but that's exactly what happens when her mother, an unfailing believer in second chances, sets them up. Milan is just as charming, cocky, and confident as he was back in school. Only this time, he actually needs her business expertise, not her heart, to flip a hard-to-sell house for his realty agency. 
 
While Rita begrudgingly agrees to help, she's not taking any risks. To prove she's definitely over him, she signs herself and Neil up on MyShaadi.com, a Desi matchmaking site famous for its success stories and trustworthy enough to convince everyone that she and Neil are the new and improved couple. Instead, she's shocked when MyShaadi's perfect match for her isn't Neil...it's Milan. Ignoring the website and her mother is one thing, but ignoring Milan proves much more difficult, especially when she promises to help him renovate the beach house of her dreams. And as the two of them dive deeper into work—and their pasts—Rita begins to wonder if maybe her match wasn't so wrong after all....
