Believe In the Wish
(stand-alone)
I buried my twin sister six months after she found out she had cancer. Her funeral was three months ago. Today is our birthday and it started with delivery of letters from her.
It seems she didn’t trust me to move on after her death. She knows me too well. But how can I go on when my other half is just...gone? That’s not something I can recover from with a snap of my fingers. But I also can’t ignore her instructions even though I’d be perfectly content to cuddle up with my buddy, Johnnie Walker, and call it a year.
She has a list of things for me to do and there are rules attached.
There’s one major problem besides the fact it’s been three months since I left the house. I have to do all these things with her jerk of an ex, Hawk Simmons. He abandoned her shortly after she found out she was sick. If that wasn’t enough to make this a really bad idea, the fact that he makes an appearance in all my nighttime fantasies probably does.
I don’t think I can do this, but I owe it to my sister’s memory to try.

Guarded Desire
NM Protectors #1
(m/f new adult, romantic suspense)
Guarded Desire Story Blurb
Kidnapped and terrorized, I refuse to let anyone break me. I can stand on my own, no matter what it costs...even if that cost is my life.
Elle...
I was living the life of an ordinary college coed, but that existence was blown wide open when I was kidnapped while visiting my very famous mother, rock-star, ViviAnna.
Now I’m back at college, pretending life is normal while dodging paparazzi and dealing with my face showing up regularly on the nightly news. Trying to find a new balance isn’t happening and the effort to not jump at every shadow or bump in the night is messing with my head more than I ever expected.
Jonah...
I’m a highly trained bodyguard, but that doesn’t mean I want to deal with some spoiled pop princess’s daughter, especially if she’s anything like her handsy mother.
But when I met Elle, she shocked the hell out of me. She’s nice and thoughtful with an incredible inner strength. Even more surprising...she doesn’t want me anywhere near her. But every once in a while I see a flash of fear and vulnerability that make all my protective instincts flare.
I have to protect her.
Because they never caught her kidnapper...
Note: This book is the first in a series of stand-alone, romantic suspense, new adult novels involving sexy bodyguards and the coeds they protect.

Naked Brews #1
(m/f New Adult romance)
Description:
Lake
The plan had always been finish college, move back to Colorado, and run Naked Brews with her dad. That plan fell apart when Lake's dad died and his ex-wife, AKA the absent maternal figure, inherited the brewery. Now Lake will have to convince her perfectionist mom not to sell the place, sweet talk the bank into a loan she has no credit for, and figure out how to turn the failing brewery into a success. No problem.
Walsh
The job should be simple. Pretend to be his millionaire best friend, buy a failing brewery, and honor their fallen brother-in-arms. But simple went down the drain the minute he met the sassy new brewery manager. Now he's stuck between a loud-mouth sarcasm factory and her mom. He'd prefer to be trapped between Lake and a soft bed, but he swore he wouldn't sleep with the brewery owner. Though technically she doesn't own the brewery...
Naked Brews
They both want to buy the same brewery and ignore the chemistry brewing between them. What could possibly go wrong?

Melissa
A tragic fire left Melissa Frye homeless and with nothing to her name except a single teacup from her massive collection and a box of clothes that don't fit. Her life isn't the raging success she thought it would be, but she refuses to go home and work for her uncle's CPA firm. She'd rather live out of her car than face that soul-sucking future. But with hardly any savings and months of couch surfing with friends in front of her, her car is looking more tempting by the day.
Anthony
Anthony Millett has spent years as the Bad Boy of Boarding, but his high life of snowboarding and non-stop parties is starting to catch up with him. After sustaining an injury while saving Melissa from the fire, his competition season is over and his sponsors aren't willing to put up with his bad boy persona anymore. He needs a quick reputation fix and the lovely Melissa could be just the answer.
The plot Thickens
Anthony has plenty of spare bedrooms in his mountainside mansion, and Melissa has the perfect innocent face to convince his sponsors he's a new man. Pretending to date her won't be hard. Not falling for her could be the real challenge.

Book #3
Story Description:
Alex
Alexandra Nichols spent her childhood in the leftover spotlight of her actress mother and producer father, smiling for the cameras and hating every minute. The paparazzi have taken her picture way more times than her own parents. Living with her best friends in the middle of Colorado is about as far from that life as she could get, but no matter how far away she is, her parents keep finding ways to keep her pinned beneath their thumbs and pulling her back into their crazy world.
Damian
Ever since the IED explosion that killed his army brothers, Damian Thorne has hidden himself away from everyone except his best friend. Walsh is the public face of their massive non-profit, so Damian never has to leave home. It's easier than tolerating the stares of horror or explaining the scars that disfigured half his body. The last thing he wants to do is spend two weeks with a bunch of strangers, but his best friend is getting married and he owes him so much.
The Bitter Truth
Alex can't seem to find her way out of the public eye and Damian wants nothing more than to hide in the shadows. When Hollywood royalty meets the boy with the ruined face, sparks fly. But everyone knows Beauty and the Beast was nothing more than a fairytale.

Now, they have to work together to keep their town safe.
At the age of sixteen, Val Garcia made the worst mistake of her life. She trusted the wrong guy, and hurt the guy she loved. She can never atone for that one mistake, but she’s trying.
As a cop, Spencer Murdock is trained in the art of evasion, but that isn’t helping him avoid the pariah in his life...his first love, Val. It doesn’t help that as the town baker, his friends and coworkers are always moaning over her cupcakes. Yeah, it sounds dirty to him when they do it, too.
