“Resist or obey. Those are my choices.”

MARLA

Alone at a bar, recently fired from my job and about to move, no one will notice that I’ve gone missing, and my abductors know it. Smuggled to a secluded facility in the mountains, locked in a cell and stripped of my dignity, they’ve threatened me with a fate worse than death. They aim to break my will. They plan to erase me.

My captors are vicious monsters, except for one: the doctor, Gabriel. He urges me to accept their control and spare myself months, or even years, of pain and torment. Yet his merciful demeanor hides a dark, burning secret. Smoldering and mysterious, I’m drawn to him and his talk of submission. He may be my best shot at escape, but I hunger for far more.

With Gabriel’s help, the others will pay for what they’ve done to me. They wanted a toy, but they’ve woken a terror...

GABRIEL

If I’d known the truth about Halloran Asylum, I would have burned it to the ground long ago. Now I’m an accessory to unspeakable crimes, and no one will ever believe my story. For years I made peace with fate, but after a violent episode pushes me to the edge, I swore never to let them harm anyone else. Now they’ve taken another, and I can’t let it go.

I need to make Marla understand her strength and resolve will only cause her greater suffering. At first, training her is just a way of buying time, but her response to my touch, my command, drives me wild. I have to have her, but standing in my way is a horrid truth that could cost me her trust. If that happens, we’ll both be lost, trapped in this place forever.

I don’t care. I’ll risk everything for Marla, even if it means letting out the beast within...

Everyone’s got a talent.
Mine is making girls … wet.
There are so many ways to do it.
Lips, tongue, fingers, words, not to mention the obvious choice!
And I chronicle it all in a diary no one has ever read.

I might look like every other hot, hung, surfer on the beach, but the truth is, I’m different. I suffered a tragic loss and the pain makes me do things I’m not proud of.
I’m rude. I’m cocky. I’m insulting.
When Meadow walks into my bar, something about her drives me crazy. She brings out the very worst in me, and the result is disastrous. Have you ever seen the drunk at the bar, falling over tables, smashing glasses, getting in pointless fights? That’s the first impression I made on Meadow.
Let’s just say, I wasn’t winning any charm awards that night.

So why does she give me a second chance?
Well, like I said, everyone’s got a talent, and I don’t just make her wet, I like the taste too!

The first two romances in the Furever Shifters series! In this pair of standalones, best friends Georgette Stephens and Becky Conway meet the bears of their dreams.

Furever Mine
Georgette Stephens can’t forget the intriguing stranger she stumbled on during a mountain hike. Shaken to the core by his mesmerizing gaze, she escaped without learning his name. When he shows up at the company where she works, she is forced to admit the deep and decidedly unprofessional connection she feels toward him. But she’s been hurt before by trusting too easily.

Bancroft “Bear” Bruin, the chief of the Northern California bear shifters, is jubilant that his mate has finally walked into his life. He didn’t expect her to be human, but he won’t let that stand in his way. She’s his mate, and he will have her — no matter how hard he has to work to gain her trust.

Furever Yours
Shifter Rory Marsden is having enough trouble dealing with his newly awakened bear. The last thing he needs is a new mate too, no matter how gorgeous she is or how much his bear whines that she’s The One.

Although wildlife biologist Becky Conway isn’t looking for a love interest, she can’t get Rory Marsden’s intense blue eyes and muscular shoulders out of her thoughts. It’s just as well he’s made it very clear he’s not interested. But damn, her body says they belong together, no matter what either of their minds say.

When Becky’s discovery of strange animal tracks thrusts her into danger, Rory is compelled to come to her rescue — even though her discovery threatens Rory’s newfound shifter clan.

Two steamy standalone bear shifter paranormal romances for readers 18+, Furever Mine & Yours contains explicit love scenes and graphic language. Previously published as individual books. Over 50,000 words, or about 300 print pages.

A brilliant scientist caught between two worlds. A winged Prince fallen from his throne. An enemy determined to destroy them both…

He protected her, trained her to be a warrior. Surah, the daughter of a human and the former prince’s favorite concubine, endured the scorn of the gargoyle court growing up. She doesn’t care- the only warrior who matters is Malin, and she will cure his genetic disease if it kills her.

It very well may. Enemies at court try to stop her research- enemies who don’t want Malin to reclaim his throne, or to see her as his mate and Princess. They threaten her life, and her research, but she must prevail. If she fails, she will have no protector, and will be sold by her half-brother in marriage to the highest bidder.

If she fails, Prince Malin will lose his immortality and be trapped in human form… and die. Together they navigate the murky politics of court, finally lay claim to a mate bond they’ve been denying for years, and hatch a plan to have a secret baby- a true Heir for the gargoyle throne.

This is a steamy paranormal shifter romance featuring hot, winged alpha males and a smart, strong heroine. With a futuristic flair, this is for readers who enjoy urban fantasy, dragon shifters (because hot men with wings are hot men with wings), surprise babies and stories with rich characters, meaningful relationships and plenty of action and adventure.

Recently divorced and out, David is done pining after the unattainable Julian. He’s ready to learn the ropes of the gay dating scene – but he doesn’t know where to start. Making changes in his life, he joins a new karate class while he’s at it.

A rising MMA star, Hunter has been traveling from dojo to dojo, both learning new fighting skills and earning his keep by making guest instructor appearances. But his recent Alexandria, Virginia post is turning tits-up. He’s in the way of his host’s cramped family, sleeping in the truck is uncomfortable, and his new MMA buddies still don’t know his name. When he discovers that he knows one of his karate students, David, from middle school, he doesn’t think life could get more awkward.

Hunter is chasing a sense of permanence. David is hunting Hunter. If they face their attraction as well as their complex histories, theirs might be a match for life.

SIDEKICK is a gay romance full of drunken idiocy, cage-fighting grit, and sizzling, explicit attraction, and adds up to a happy ending.

Winning is just what I do!

Playmaker.
Panty scorcher.
The shit.
All names that apply to me. Yeah, I’m cocky. It’s hard not be when you’re an NFL star and – let's be real – look and play like me.
Everything in my life was running smooth until this fiery redhead wanders into the road, almost killing us both.
She had the nerve to call me a jack ass. But damn, she’s smoking hot when she’s mad.
I need to focus. I don’t have time to hang around and argue with her. I’m late. I hastily make my getaway, trying to get her off my mind. I'm finding this hard in more ways than one.
Then our paths cross again. She’s at my football game that I was late for because of her. Unfortunately, she’s not there to see me. She’s with one of my teammates, and he’s no friend of mine.

When Gage Evans gets a look at his hot nurse, he's smitten immediately. Too bad he's given the nurse the impression he's some kind of daredevil. It couldn't be further from the truth. Gage is a college journalism instructor writing a series of guest columns that require him to jump into new experiences -- a fun bucket list, but one that does nothing to convince Ben he's not an adrenaline junkie.

Fresh off his latest heartbreak, nurse Ben Griggs is wary when one of his patients shows an interest in him -- especially when that patient showed up in the ER after a motorcycle accident. Ben's ex was a biker, a friend with benefits, and he dropped Ben cold when someone more interesting came along. Ben isn't the kind of guy who can hold the interest of an adrenaline junkie like Gage Evans for long. The last thing he wants is to lose his heart to the wrong man again.

The more Ben gets to know Gage, the harder he is to resist. He can only hold on for the ride and keep his guard up as much as he can. But Ben's lack of trust seriously gets in the way of building a relationship, and Gage will only be patient so long. Can he trust Gage enough to give his heart, or are they destined to have a fling that goes nowhere?

This is a spin-off from the Ashe Sentinel Connections series, where Ben appears briefly in the book "Hard Press." It can be read as a standalone.

In a world of shadows, smoke, and covert black op missions—where people vanish and living one more day is never a given—falling in love is the last thing Victoria and Jacob expected.

Victoria Marshall didn't cooperate by dying in the Afghani hell-hole like the CIA expected. Defying all probability, a privately-funded black ops group led by a handsome, sexy-as-sin southerner pulled her out of the warlord's prison cell and brought her home. Even half out of her mind with pain Tori knew this man was special. She made a date with the commander to meet one year later at a restaurant of his choice. Keeping that date was the best thing she ever did.

Jacob King found little physically attractive about the woman he saved from the warlord’s camp, though it was hard to see what lay under the filth and suppurating wounds she suffered from countless beatings. He admired her brave humor in the face of her agonizing injuries. This kind of tough-minded woman was someone he'd like to know as a friend. He never expected the leggy, blond bomb-shell in the red dress who showed up for their date.

But then he never expected she would save his life, either. In a world of shadows, smoke, and dangerous covert missions, where people routinely vanish and living one more day was never a given, Tori and Jacob fight to build their happily ever after.

Scroll up for a sexy-as-sin military romance!

"If you're the kind of person who can usually find any excuse to talk yourself out of a great idea, this book is the inspiration you need to get out of your comfort zone and make things happen."
Helen Osler, author of Cameras of Kilimanjaro, Australia

It is January 16, 2009, and 60 year-old BARRY FINLAY and his son CHRIS are propped against a rock, struggling to draw a breath on their treacherous climb up Mount Kilimanjaro. Their destination is tantalizingly close, yet the weather and -- more importantly -- their health will determine the end result. Barry's backpack holds a Canadian flag with the names of over 200 donors mobilized by the climbers back home. The donors have contributed to providing classrooms and clean water for desperately deserving school children in Tanzania. For Barry, this is a life-changing physical, mental and spiritual adventure. Follow along as he and his son strive to climb one of the World's Seven Summits, meet the children who will benefit from their fundraising, and come to an understanding that one or two people really can make a difference. It is a journey that leaves the two with the lasting impression that nothing is more satisfying than reaching a goal and giving others the opportunity to achieve theirs.

They're powerless without her; she's powerless to resist.

The list of reasons why Lexus Wren is the last girl any guy would be interested in is mercilessly long:
Her dad’s in prison for murder, her mom drowns her sorrows every night at Dave’s Dive, and Lexus is just trying to survive the cruelties of high school as a painfully shy bookworm with a bad wardrobe and a collection of nervous habits. Never in a million years did Lexus expect to attract the attention of two hunky transfer students, Phoenix and Griffin Easton.

The troubled brothers are haunted by their own demons and don’t seem bothered by Lexus’ tarnished reputation; they’re too busy vying for her attention and trying to figure out why being around her makes them feel like electricity is frying their insides. When Lexus’ family problems reach a critical tipping point, the boys are drawn to protect her, and the truth about who they are is revealed in an explosive confrontation that will astound them all.

Five Nights. No rules. No limits. It’s time for Dirty Games.

A standalone romance with an HEA ending and no cliffhangers.

Some things are meant to stay in the past. Some things aren’t meant to be repeated.

Once upon a time, I’d been in love with Scott Leyland and Zane Marshall. Our threesome had been sexy, steamy and passionate. I thought we would last forever.

I was wrong.

Everything ends.

Now Scott and Zane are in New Summit, intent on getting me back, and I’m just as determined to resist. I was in love with them once. I won’t let it happen again.

Then they propose a challenge, one with my heart as a prize.

Five nights with them. Five nights of pleasure. Five nights of wicked, heart-pounding, panty-melting sin.

And at the end of it, if I still want to walk away, they won’t stop me.

This is a challenge I intend to win.

Though I’m not sure I want to.

"The Wonder Years" meets "The Notebook" in this true-life coming-of-age love story.

If you remember your first love, your first date and your first kiss, then Feels Like the First Time will take you back to those moments. Shawn met Dawn when she moved in next door in 1976. Soon, they were best friends, then became each other's first loves. Shawn was outgoing but bookish, Dawn, beautiful and reserved. Their storybook romance came to an end when Dawn's parents forbid them to see each other.

They obeyed - for 27 years, until a chance meeting swept them up in a storm of emotions and memories. Can the sweet bond of first love not only survive into middle age, but flourish?

Feels Like the First Time lets you share in the magic of young love in small town America in the 1970s. No matter how much the world changes, some things – timeless music, high school dances, making out in the backseat of a Chevy Vega, and of course true love – will always remain the same.

"Both Sides Now," the best selling sequel to "Feels Like the First Time" is also available for the special price of just $2.99 this week. "Both Sides Now" tells of the same events, but from Dawn's perspective.

Fate stopped smiling on her a long time ago. So is a mate now a blessing or a curse?

Eleya has done more with her life than most Brions will. Not only a General, but a High Senator, she's achieved everything but the love that every Brion seeks. When a twist of fate brings her face to face with her second mate, can she move on from the pain the first one caused, or is he just another challenge to be dealt with?

Xaven as a more than capable Brion Captain wants many things, but being a General is not one of them. However a mate that is one... well, a man can have no objections to that, now can he? Only when it becomes clear that their paths are too divergent to come together must the warrior reconsider his faith in fate. Perhaps some things are not meant to be.

Or maybe they need to be fought for harder than he ever expected?

This is a standalone novella in the Brion Brides series which can and should be read as such. It is a science fiction romance story with plenty of steam, hot warriors, no cheating, a happy ending and tempers flaring the Brion way! Come join the ride!

All I want to do is forget. Turns out, that's a lot harder than I anticipated.

Sixteen-year-old Jeanne Rowe used to love Life . . . until Life took a sharp turn and never straightened out. Haunted by memories she would rather forget, she tries to push forward, leaving the past where it belongs--in the past.

Four months after the life-altering incident, all seems well. Until an unforeseen figure re-enters her life. Then she discovers that those memories weren't ever locked up. They had only been waiting for the right moment to take her down--beneath rock bottom.

In hopes of appearing stronger than she truly feels, Jeanne pushes away those closest to her, including the one person who's determined to help her.

I'm fine. I'll be fine . . . But even she knows better.


*This young adult coming of age story deals with a heavy subject matter

Kathy and her sister, Samantha, have always been a team. Throughout their time as witches, they've taken out more than their share of bad guys. But after Kathy meets Will, who she learns is a demonic Dark Knight, her loyalties begin to change.

Meanwhile, Samantha doesn't trust Will or his intentions. Still, Kathy can't help but feel tempted by the dark side as she falls deeper in love with Will. Crossing over would give Kathy the freedom to do whatever she wanted with her magic. No rules. No limitations. It would also mean breaking the bond she has always shared with her sister, who has made it clear that she wants nothing to do with the dark side.

When Will proposes they take over the underworld, Kathy loves the idea of having power. But it also leaves her with a choice that will change her life: abandon her family and the life she has always known, or give up the love of her life forever.

Every single person Paige has drawn has ended up dead. And now she's drawn herself.

Paige Jeffries is the darling of the art world. Her works are original, compelling. But after a brutal attack two years ago --a savage beating from an unknown assailant--Paige has become all but a recluse. She knows her mind is broken. In her sleep she's drawing scenes of violence. Murders. Going to the cops isn't an option because they already think she's crazy. And they may be right.

Seasoned homicide detective Brett Wagner is asked to look into a cold case nobody wants: the assault and battery of a local artist who claims to have drawn a picture of her own attack before it even happened. He remembers shy Paige from high school, and is driven to find her attacker, to believe her when nobody else does, to protect the innocent beauty.

Because when he witnesses firsthand what Paige is drawing in her sleep, Brett realizes they are scenes from actual cases. Cases that had no connection until now. Portland has a secret serial killer, and Paige is somehow linked to his mind.

And he's coming for her.
