A fae witch with a rare skill, coveted by a powerful Lord. A dragon shifter unafraid to start a war. A tentative new bond threatened by a quest for vengeance.
Kill the man who almost caused her sister’s death. That is Serephone’s only goal. She might not survive the attempt, especially when she must battle mages, trolls and fight in a tournament to the death…but if she dies, she’ll take some of the bastards with her.
Her enemy, a powerful mage determined to use Serephone’s unique magic for himself, sees lifetime servitude as a much better option than death.
Amnan lived through a war, and the death of his beloved mother. He’s old enough to know when to follow his heart—and when to follow a woman. He’ll be damned if he lets his possible mate take off to a Dome and get herself killed dueling with flesh traffickers.
He goes after her, but in order to save her, he must sacrifice his freedom. And even then, she may be snatched away from him forever.
The Silver Spider is book 2 in the Dragon, Stone & Steam series and can be read as a HFN standalone dragon shifter urban fantasy romance—with a swashbuckling dash of steampunk adventure. For readers who enjoy the following genres:

Kyros Vindex, treasure-hunter, has a problem. He's carrying a torch for a fellow pirate with the sexual awareness of a teaspoon. Rumors say the man has killed hundreds. He's determined to knock some sense into the work-a-holic that captains the Midnight Sun, but damned if he knows how.
Eric Deumont has more pressing concerns than the treasure-obsessed Kyros. There's a creature inked into his chest that no witch in the seas will lay hands on for all the gold in the world. He knows it gives the Midnight Sun a cursed reputation and that doesn't make living any easier. He has heard stories of spirits trapped for lifetimes inside spelled puzzle jars. Eric tracked down three of the pieces for such a jar with a lead number four. The fifth is still out there.
Even then, the spirit of vengeance that lives in Eric's skin has no intention of giving up such easy access to the mortal realm. It craves blood and the light of the moon allows it to wreak unchecked havoc. Cursed is an insult. This is madness.
From New York Times and USA Today Bestselling author Lisa Mondello...
When someone you once loved wants you dead, is there any SAFE HAVEN?
Finding out her ex-husband hired a hitman to kill her didn't leave Daria Carlisle all warm and fuzzy. But Detective Kevin Gordon's suggestion she flee the only home that had ever truly been hers was downright crazy. Forget that the sexy police officer made her heart pound and her blood stir. She'd worked too hard to get what little she had. She wasn't leaving.
Kevin Gordon didn't make mistakes, but he'd made a big one in letting Daria's ex slip through his fingers. Although he tried to make it very clear to Daria that the fixer upper home she considered a palace was no safe haven, she just dug in deeper and insisted on staying, leaving him no choice but to be her protector. Left on her own, she surely faced murder at an assassin's hand. But can Kevin spend every waking hour sleeping on her doorstep just to keep this stubborn woman alive without risking his heart to love?
TALK ABOUT A WINNING HAND! Four Aces – in the form of four hard-boiled (but “wonderfully wry”) adventures of ex-cop Jake Samson—in one handy box set.
Ex-Chicago-cop Jake Samson’s likely to lead with his easy-going Columbo style, but he’s earned a reputation for being a tough guy who occasionally “handles discreet matters.” He takes in stride the parade of Berzerkeley types, intense student activists, and harmless doomsday preppers, and can hold his own in a barroom full of neo-Nazis. He’s just too much of a mensch to let evil triumph without giving it a good fight.
Jake has an iron-clad rule about his unlicensed PI business in the edgy East Bay: “I don’t mind working for crazies, as long as they’re not bad crazies.” But just beneath the sunny California surface simmer the usual urban tensions, along with revolutions of every stripe and hue, and the desperation of people who have pursued their dreams or fled their pasts to the farthest point of a highway that leads to a coastline of steep and jagged jumping-off places. Readers will enjoy the breezy banter between Jake and his tenant and sometime co-investigator, Rosie Vicente, a carpenter who wields a mean two-by-four.
WHO WILL LIKE IT: Fans of Thomas Perry, Harlan Coben, Stephen Dobyns, CJ Box, Timothy Hallinan, Lawrence Block, Steve Hamilton and Tony Dunbar; as well as lovers of San Francisco mysteries like Bill Pronzini's "Nameless" Detective series, Marcia Muller's Sharon McCone series, Susan Dunlap's Jill Smith series, and Julie Smith's Rebecca Schwartz series.
Vol. 3: FULL HOUSE
An ark in the middle of suburban Oakland is interesting but not strange by California standards. Even one built by peaceful cultists preparing for the coming flood. Until sometime private eye Jake Samson is hired to find Noah, their leader, who has disappeared with a lovely devotee and a quarter million in cash. The cult suspects foul play, but the police aren’t convinced.
Vol. 4: SPIT IN THE OCEAN
The North Coast Sperm Bank in tiny Wheeler, California has been knocked over, and the perp’s tossed its assets in the ocean, leaving a religious-nut note of explanation. Just a prank, says Wheeler law enforcement. But the bank hires Jake Samson and his ever-sharp Watson, Rosie Vicente, to find out who made the unauthorized withdrawal. As a storm brutalizes Wheeler, a bank employee slips in the mud and falls to her death.
Vol. 5: SUICIDE KING
Jake's never been a big fan of politics, but Rosie invites him to a posh California fundraiser for an energetic gubernatorial candidate of the liberal underdog Vivo party, and Jake can't resist. It's all fun and political games until the candidate’s aide finds her boss in her backyard, hanging naked from an acacia tree. The police rule the death a suicide, but Jake and the aide suspect foul play, and she hires Jake to find the culprit.
Vol. 6: ROYAL FLUSH
Laid-back, unlicensed PI Jake Samson is understandably nervous about infiltrating a local Marin County neo-Nazi group called the Aryan Command. After all, he is Jewish. But when the doe-eyed teenage goddaughter of his oldest friend begs him to help her boyfriend nice-guy Jake just can't "just say no."
She's always known you can't trust aliens, but nobody ever said they would be this hard to resist.
Between her work as a nurse and trying to keep her teenage sister from doing something stupid, Meg Cauthran has her hands full. Since the death of her parents from malfunctioning alien technology, Meg has lived with one simple truth: The aliens are nothing but trouble. And when she's assigned to a Karuvar medical facility, the impossibly sexy, incredibly possessive Verkiir proves just how right she is.
As First Guardian, Verkiir fer Vel’a is entrusted with the very future of the Karuvar--protecting the Pathfinder’s only son. Despite his people's tales of fated mates, Verkiir only believes in one thing: His duty. But when he lays eyes on the feisty Meg, all he can think about is claiming all of her--heart, body, and soul--for his own.
Their desire may burn brighter than the fiercest sun, but Verkiir wants more than one scorching hot night. Trying to convince Meg of their shared destiny is no easy feat, though. Especially when he has no idea what a human female even wants from a mate.
When their charges go missing in the dangerous ruins of a decimated Earth city, Verkiir and Meg are forced to rely on each other and the bond they share. But is the world truly ready to accept a union between a human and a Karuvar? And can they learn to trust each other--to overcome their prejudices--or are they destined to be torn apart?
Verkiir is the first novel in an exciting new sci fi romance series. It features a super sexy alpha alien hero, a confident, sassy heroine, and explicit scenes not suitable for the faint of heart!

-------------
It’s the quiet ones who take you by surprise.
Beth Danube’s emotionally abusive husband is dead and buried. So is her heart. It’s no big deal, she has all she wants: her three little boys and a fresh start in a small Alberta town. What she doesn’t want is another man in her life—not now, maybe not ever.
After ten years of unsatisfactory, missionary-position sex, she never expected her libido to reawaken. One look at sex-in-boots Daniel Coleman in a Calgary bar, though, blows the dust off her sexuality.
Sensing an edge of desperation, even fear, beneath Beth’s come-on, Daniel finds himself giving in to the powerful urge to let his normally subdued desires run wild. The lady wants non-judgemental, non-vanilla sex? She’s got it—in and out of the bedroom.
At first, friends with blazing-hot benefits is more than enough. Then she realizes Daniel is burning away the protective fortress around her heart…and the guilty secret she dare not reveal.

War rages between the Confederation and the Union. Shattered fleets watch each other warily across a war torn frontier. Both sides are licking their wounds, gathering strength to continue the fight.
Captain Tyler Barron and the crew of Dauntless are finally enjoying the rest they’ve earned while their aging battleship Dauntless gets the repairs and refit it desperately needs. But their respite will be short-lived. In the Badlands, deep in the haunted vastness of pre-Cataclysmic space, a new discovery threatens to upset the balance of power.
Orbiting a world in a distant system is an ancient battleship, vastly larger and enormously more advanced than anything possessed by the contending powers…and the Union has already sent forces to seize it. The Confederation has no ships close enough to intervene, to get there before the enemy…none save Dauntless.
Barron and his crew must race across the Badlands, find the ancient artifact, and somehow hold it, keep the Union forces from taking it, until reinforcements arrive. They will be outnumbered and outgunned, but there can be no retreat. Not this time. Nothing less than the fate of all human-inhabited space is at stake.
If the Confederation is able to rediscover the technology of the ancients, it will be safe for generations to come, its defensive forces untouchable by its enemies. But if the Union gets there first, if it can adapt the incredible power of mankind’s lost technology, it will gain the power to enslave all humanity.
This fight isn’t for territory. It isn’t for position or tactical advantage. It is for the future.

REALLY BAD NEWS--THE BABY-SITTER COULD BE A MURDERER!
A year following Boston-based auto mechanic Alex Glauberman’s first brush with murder, mystery, and the life of an amateur detective (in RETURN TO SENDER), he’s recovered from cancer and chemotherapy; he’s studying tai chi for its pleasures and therapeutic effects; and he’s getting on with his life. Then, in the space of a two-minute phone call, he’s ensnared in another mystery.
His anniversary dinner with girlfriend Meredith comes to an abrupt halt when a quick check-in with the babysitter yields the news from Alex’s sleepy nine-year-old that the babysitter has left: “She said it was an emergency. She said the emergency was that somebody was dead.”
More worrisome still, the babysitter, college student Suzanne Lutrello, cannot be found, and then her ex-boyfriend is savagely killed.
Alex’s newly minted private detective skills come quickly into play, but he soon discovers he isn't the only one looking for Suzanne. As he outruns her pursuers and their threats, he navigates the world of old Boston money to its intersection with small-town corruption, high-end prostitution, and drug-addiction recovery, in a life-or-death finish amid the stark white New England winter woods.
For fans of Jewish detectives like Rabbi Small, Peter Decker and Rina Lazarus, Rebecca Schwartz, Jake Samson—even Moses Wine (without the wisecracks); and those who love vintage male sleuths like Ellery Queen, Gideon Oliver, Stanley Hastings, and almost all British detectives--the ones who're not too cozy, yet not too hard-boiled. This case is more of an action adventure story than a traditional mystery—but trust us, it’ll appeal to fans of the traditional mystery as well as those who’ll appreciate Alex’s putting his tai-chi training to good use. How do we know? Because Alex is one of those dependable detectives all too rare in crime fiction—a private investigator you actually like to be with. Not too smart-mouthed, not too close-mouthed, just…kind of a mensch.
Badass reporter-turned-writer Leah Nash is no stranger to danger or deceit. In these two sequels to Susan Hunter’s stunning cozy noir puzzler Dangerous Habits, Leah takes on lies, drugs, and murder in small town Himmel, Wisconsin with the same smartass fearlessness as she did in her chilling debut.
DANGEROUS MISTAKES
Susan Hunter's not quite hard-boiled, not quite cozy sequel catches back up with savvy, independent sleuth Leah Nash along the icy twists and turns of small town mystery in Wisconsin, spiraling down a rabbit hole of fraud, layers upon layers of family secrets, and murder.
“All of us are dying,” states a cryptic Betty Meier to no-nonsense (and oft-accused smart-mouth) reporter Leah Nash one morning, Hours later, Betty’s house ends up torched—and Leah’s covering it for the tiny Himmel Times Weekly. And then she receives a midnight phone call from a mysterious young woman named Isabel, begging her to investigate the death of her wealthy father, Garrett Whiting, a renowned surgeon with possible ties to fraudulent activity. Boohoo, thinks our heroine. Except Isabel found him in his study with a bullet to the brain and a poisonous rum and coke in hand.
DANGEROUS PLACES
Things are finally looking up for Leah Nash. A former investigative reporter (and admittedly reputable smart-mouth), she’s now a full-time true crime writer. And after the publishing of her first book, she’s finally home-sweet-home in small town Himmel after a whirlwind 3-month book tour. But her homecoming library reading is interrupted by Sammy, a childhood friend whose brother was long ago accused of murdering his high school sweetheart, Heather. Sammy begs Leah to re-investigate Heather’s mysterious disappearance—a cold case decades old. And when she does, she discovers town secrets even she never saw coming.
Who will like it: Fans of not quite cozy, not quite hard-boiled mysteries featuring strong female leads: think Nancy Pickard's series featuring true crime author Marie Lightfoot, fans of reporter sleuths like Hank Philippi Ryan’s Jane Ryland, and writers like Louise Penny (Three Pines, Canada) and Christine Kling (the Florida Keys). And, of course, the hit T.V. series Cold Case.
I have it all.
Money. Fame. Women
But now – I only want her.
As a star linebacker, I’ve had my share of fun. Girls throw themselves at me and until now I’ve been happy to let them.
Until I met her…
Tammy Rose. She’s gorgeous.
She doesn’t know it. She gets my jeans bulging and my head spinning.
And the best part? She has no idea who I am.
It’s hard for a guy in my position to find a girl I can trust. A girl I could make mine forever – and until now I’d given up on the idea.
But after the night we spent together, I knew she was the one.
But I screwed up. I made a mistake and I don’t know if I can make it right. It’s been two years…
Two years since I felt her, smelled her, looked into those gorgeous eyes.
But now I’m back, and I’m not letting her go. Not this time – not when she’s the mother of my child.
The Longest Game is a stand alone instalove romance with no cheating, no cliffhanger, and of course – a HEA, and plenty of steam to keep your Kindles hot! Disclaimer: not responsible for undergarments that need replacing ;)
