Coming April 24th!
Some secrets are meant to be kept.
Some powers are meant to break free.
Behind the impenetrable walls of a fortress-like castle, a princess harbors magic that makes even her father, the king, tremble. Billed as a spoiled brat and kept locked away from the world, Cecilia never questioned why she must remain in the shadows. Until now.
When a mysterious ghostly stag appears at the castle walls, possessed by a dark and forbidden magic, the carefully constructed barriers around her begin to crack. Her father assigns his top guard—Captain Thomas Lovelace—to keep her in line. Amidst a world of swirling secrets, it may be the King’s biggest mistake.
Cecilia and Thomas begin to uncover the mysteries long buried in the hopes of finding any way they can to save their people and the Kingdom of Revell. Along the way, they discover the involvement of the Original Gods thought to have disappeared generations ago. Together, they must decide which is more dangerous: the wild magic threatening to take down the eight kingdoms, or the power within her fighting to break out?
In this spicy fantasy romance, one woman's journey to self-discovery threatens to unravel a kingdom built on fear. The most dangerous person in any kingdom isn't always the one with the crown—sometimes, it's the one who's finally discovered her worth.

Testimonials

April Releases I'm Excited About
They always say the past can come back to haunt you — I just didn't expect it to look so good.
Ten years ago I met the love of my life the summer after high school. He was supposed to be my forever… Then he disappeared.
Now, in some cruel twist of fate, Luke Reyes just walked into the firehouse where I work as a paramedic. The man was supposed to become a cop, but somehow he’s the new firefighter on my shift.
And he's almost hot enough to douse the flames of my fury.
When I refuse to acknowledge Luke’s existence, our Lieutenant decides to throw us together in some death defying stunts, forcing a new bond with the man that shattered my heart.
But I like the safe option. I always have. And whatever’s smoldering deep inside me doesn’t feel safe at all — because there’s no smoke without fire.
Memories With Fire is a dual first person POV, steamy, workplace, second chance romance — with a dash of suspense.
The forecast didn’t call for a hockey player with an affection for guinea pigs…
I’m not your typical meteorologist. Sure, I might look extroverted on television, but inside, I’m an anxious thirty-something woman who’d love to be anywhere except a public setting. My love for the weather runs deep from when I was a kid in Indiana, so when I’m finally working as the chief meteorologist for a station in Denver, I’m happy. Well, mostly.
Enter Jacob Mitchell.
A star forward for the NHL’s Denver Wolves, I knew who he was when I literally ran into him on a busy downtown street. As charismatic as he is attractive, Jacob checks off every red flag I have. Sports star? Red flag! Hot? Big red flag! Flirtatious as all get out? Enormous red flag.
When we keep running into each other, I’m surprised to learn there’s so much more to Jacob than meets the eye. The man has an entire bedroom set up for his six guinea pigs! But after going out of his way to rescue me from a horrible family situation, I find myself whisked off to Las Vegas to say I Do. Jacob says it’s to keep me safe.
But what happens to my heart when he no longer has to play the role of my protective faux-husband?
Forecasting the Forward is a hockey, marriage of convenience, forced proximity, and found family romance in an interconnected series. It features a golden retriever hockey star and the reserved meteorologist he falls for. It includes spice, banter, and a guaranteed happily ever after that will have you swooning.
