“Do you think you deserve to have it all, everything that you need, right here in Catlett’s Cove?”

Thomas Randall has dreamed of taking over the veterinary practice of his mentor Dr. Benton from the day Dr. Benton saved his family’s golden retriever after it was hit by a car when Thomas was only eight years old. Now Dr. Benton is retiring and Thomas has just earned his veterinary degree. It seems like a perfect time to return home.

Thomas only has one major concern. Catlett’s Cove is a small town, and he is skeptical about whether he can find a man to love. Then he meets Hadley Rogers who brings in a pregnant dog injured on the road.

Hadley Rogers loves to work with his hands, on houses, cars, and landscapes. And he is supposed to be straight. Until he meets Thomas. He’s been attracted to men since age fifteen, but he’s never kissed one…until now.

Hadley cares for his great aunt Mae, the only close family he has left. His family was always a proud one where the men were men and the women were women. Now Hadley is worried that his attraction to Thomas will upset the careful balance of his life. Not to mention disruptions caused by a rescued dog and her puppies.

The Practice is a 50,000 word first time gay novel. It is the first book in the Catlett's Cove series, has no cliffhangers and has a happily ever after ending with steamy scenes.

Penny doesn't dream about a prince coming to save her from the trailer park. She knows better than that.

And the boy she finds hiding in the woods out back is too wild and dangerous to trust. But he may be her only chance at survival.

From New York Times bestselling author Skye Warren comes an emotional new spin-off series. THE PRINCE is a 13,000-word prologue to the new Masterpiece duet.

Before Rebecca can extricate herself from the hairy situation, an unknown champion saves the night. When Killian assists Rebecca off the floor, she’s stunned into silence while staring at the sexiest man alive.

SUMMER IS COOLER WHEN YOU STAY UNDERCOVER!

The city of Dallas boasts much of life’s finest, but if you asked any woman within a ten-mile radius what makes the city come alive, they’d say Dallas’ most eligible bachelor, Deke Ashton. Suave, debonair, successful, he’s a player in and out of the boardroom, but for all his many conquests – business and personal – he’s yet to meet a woman he couldn’t close the deal with. That is, until a seemingly innocuous kickboxing class goes awry, and he finds himself completely enamored with a headstrong beauty that has no interest in his usual antics.

Twenty-six-year-old grad student Jaylene Morris has only one thing on her mind: success, but when an overconfident,super-sexy business executive strolls into her life unexpectedly, her resolve to stay clear of all signs of trouble – no matter how handsome they are – grows increasingly shaky.

It’s going to take far more than candle light dinners, smooth talking, and bedroom eyes to make her swoon because turning a playboy into a husband isn’t part of her master plan.

Can the consummate ‘closer’ close the deal and convince Jaylene that he’s a changed man?

***Tempted is a standalone billionaire romance with a dirty-talking playboy, a HEA, no cheating and no cliffhanger.***

In London for graduate school, Valerie Dearborn knows she's finally free. Her father and ex-almost-boyfriend are back in California and she's out of the vampire hunting biz for good. Or is she?

She draws the attention of Lucas, a 1600 year old Vampire, and King to his kind. He’s also wicked hot. As golden as Lucifer, and just as tempting, he makes Valerie an offer she can't refuse— help him find out if the Others (Empaths, Fey and Werewolves) still exist or he'll stop protecting those she loves.

Lucas tells her that Empaths were a Vampire’s biggest weakness before going extinct hundreds of years ago. While the Fey or a Werewolf might kill a Vampire, an Empath could enslave them, seducing or harming with emotions at will. The one detail he leaves out? Valerie is an Empath.

And after 1600 years of an emotionless existence, Lucas wants Valerie like a recovering alcoholic wants a wine cooler.

Can she keep those she loves alive, stop Lucas from munching on her, survive a fanged revolution and still find a way to have that boring, normal life she’s always wanted? Probably not, but she is definitely going to try!

The first book In The Sentinel Demon Series, a paranormal romance by NY Times and USA Today bestselling author J.S. Scott.

27 year old Kat Larson is haunted by demons. Literally. And how was she to know that there was more than one type of demon? The Evils want to destroy her soul, while billionaire Sentinel demon, Zachary Winston, claims that he wants to protect her. Kat opts for Zach’s protection…but it doesn’t come without a price. It requires a demon bargain…and what he suggests surprises poor Kat almost as much as the fact that demons really do exist. Why would the handsome billionaire want to make such an agreement with a curvy, plain redheaded woman like her?

Billionaire Zachary Winston has a mission and it’s one that he vows to complete. As a Sentinel demon, his task is to protect Kat from the Evils that will corrupt her soul. His only problem is that she is his “radiant,” the one woman who can lighten the darkness of his demon existence and be his eternal mate. Zach has to fight an internal war between man and demon as he protects Kat, not quite sure which one will win. He’s one part demon, one part man, but they both yearn for Kat’s lush, full figured body and kind, compassionate heart. As Zach becomes more and more enchanted with Kat, he’s hoping she can learn to love a lonely man/demon that’s only slightly wicked.

This paranormal romance contains graphic language, steamy love scenes, and lovable alpha males that also happen to be mythological demons.

Bellamy Sullivan’s life is hardly regal. She’s a waitress from Ohio who’s been on her own since she was sixteen, working several jobs while her dreams of being a fashion designer stay just that. But everything changes when PR maven and soon-to-be-royal Lemon Beauchamp drops in to announce that Bellamy is a princess. Unfortunately, Bellamy’s newly assigned bodyguard is the last man she wants to see.

A year ago, the royal family of Monterra tasked Enzo Rannalli with confirming Bellamy’s heritage, which meant he had to get very close to her. Enzo got the confirmation he needed, but he didn’t expect their connection to be so meaningful. And he didn’t expect his sudden departure to break the young princess’s heart.

In exchange for a once-in-a-lifetime chance to kick-start her fashion career, Bellamy agrees to star on a royal reality show that will match her with the world’s most eligible bachelors. But after a series of disastrous dates make her even more grateful for Enzo’s company, she wonders if her fairy-tale ending is waiting to happen off camera.

Drew certainly had not planned to fall in love that morning.
He had not planned to make a new friend. He had not even wanted to talk to anyone.
He had resisted all of Amy’s attempts to draw him out− at the hotel, at the airport, on the airplane− giving hurried responses and burying his face in a pile of papers. But when the flight attendant offered coffee, and a muscle in Amy’s back twitched as she reached for it, and the cup tipped, and the hot liquid puddled in Drew’s lap, then they began to talk!
Earlier in the year, each had lost a spouse of over thirty years. Drew’s wife had died of a brain tumor, Amy’s husband when his small airplane nose-dived to earth, the engine at full throttle − an accident, it was ruled, although she’d charged him with adultery earlier the same day.
They live in the same city. Both have grandchildren. They are about the same age. Consciously, or not, they both are looking to love again.
Drew is wealthy, and Amy is middle class. Amy is “new” in town – she and her husband moved to Charleston twenty-five years ago – while Drew’s family has lived there for three centuries. Drew lives below Broad, a code word for high society, old families, power, and money. Amy’s home is across the river.
Class warfare may be less violent than it was in the past, but when Drew invites Amy to the St Cecelia Ball, battle lines are drawn. In a city in which ancestry is important, the ball’s membership is passed from father to son, and only those from the oldest families attend.
Family, friends, and co-workers all weigh in on their relationship and choose sides. Allies are found in unexpected places. Opposition comes from among those who were thought to be friends. As the conflict mounts, Amy learns that her deceased husband has attempted to “rule from the grave” through provisions in his Will that make one final attempt to humiliate her in public.
Amy concludes that all men are copies of her husband. She begins to suspect that Drew is one of them, the rich snobs who despise her. Drew begins to feel that Amy neither trusts him nor cares for him. Unless Amy is able to see Drew, not as a copy of the husband who betrayed her and not as a clone of those who look down on her, but simply as a man who loves her, she will lose it all − Drew, her chance for happiness, and her opportunity to love again.

His Brother's Wife

I'm going to take Amalia for her very first time.
Hell, I might even fall in love with her for MY very first time.
I know it from the moment I first lay eyes on her seductive curves.
There's only one problem.
That moment happens to be when she is walking down the aisle to marry my hateful half brother Jackson.
I'm his illegitimate half-brother, the black sheep playboy of the family.
I'm used to doing what I want.
And now what I want to do is Amalia.
To have my way with her while she submits to my every command.
But her father has sold her off to Jackson as part of a business deal.
Fulfilling our desires could mean she's disowned and Jackson's wrath could destroy both of us.
He'd better be ready for the fight of his life because I'm going to take what I want, which is Amalia over my knee and then on her own knees for me.
And I know from the look in her sultry eyes that she wants to give me what I want, no matter the cost.
