Remember My Name

Dark and twisted secrets mar Shane Coulter’s skin, and darken his
fragile heart. Yet he keeps his nightmarish truth hidden from all those
he holds dear with a smart mouth and abrasive attitude.

His
first love, Callan Reid, refuses to accept Shane’s tough exterior.
Convinced something truly horrific lurks beneath Shane’s defenses,
Callan vows to uncover the truth.

But some things are better
left buried. As darkness from the past threatens to be brought to light,
there are those who would kill to prevent it. Can Callan break down
Shane’s walls? Or will digging into the past come with deadly
consequences?

♥️ Heat Level 3

Axel

She says I’m a beast. And she’s right.
But I’m the man she needs if she wants to survive.

I’m no family man. Big, bearded, tatted – I’m no teddy bear either. As a member of the Twisted Devils MC, I fix bikes and break heads. At night, it’s all about easy riding and fast women.
No commitments, except to my club.

Until Trixie.
That night, everything changes.

The curvy bar singer takes the stage and my world shifts. She’s gorgeous. And her sinful voice stirs an animal inside me.

All I want is one night.
Nothing more.
She tells me I’m full of it.
She wants nothing from a man like me.
Turns out we’re both liars.

Because the truth comes out after one hot night together. Trixie finds out she’s carrying a little secret. I find out she’s got a past.
A dark past that’s coming for her and for my child.
And it could destroy us all.

I used to avoid commitment, but not any more. And those enemies that threaten my woman and my child?

They better be ready for war.

Lost on the Way

Amazon | AppleBooks | Kobo | B&N

They were friends—just friends. Now they’re something else entirely…

Jason
If luck fell on my side, I’d make her mine in every way. But, she deserves so much more from life than my prognosis.

A decade of history binds us. One drunken night and we’re fighting. Christ, she’s telling me to go see a therapist. If I can’t figure out how to go back to the way things were, I’ll lose the most important relationship of my life. The only one that truly matters.

Maggie
Last night, we shared tequila. I found myself hoping, like I always do. I’d replay last night a thousand times if I could. It’s the morning after that needs erasing. Our problem? His love for me isn’t the more kind of love. He’s made that abundantly clear. And that’s okay.

Some part of me knows Jason will always see me as his best friend’s girl. Because of our past, he prefers me in the just-a-friend role. I can’t lose our friendship. If he wants to stay in the friend zone, I need to accept that. Move on. Find someone else to love. Rationally, I do know this.

But convincing my heart…well, that’s another story entirely.

The Best Friend Zone

Just friends? Is a peach pie to the face “just” a little mishap? I know what I felt the day Quinn Faulkner saved me from death by dessert. My best friend was always The One.
The Impossible.
Older. Flawless. Brutally gorgeous. A small-town prince of summer crushes.
Leagues above a tag-along dance nerd like me.

Years later, my uncle needs a goat wrangler. I just need an escape. What better way to flee a cheating ex and dumpster fire career?
What better way to collide with the boy who got away? And now he’s an atrociously hot, mysterious, overprotective beast.

Breathe in. Breathe out.
I’m grown up now.
Unmoved by his slayer charms and heart-stompy memories.
I can’t stay to unravel his darkness—or savor his vows to protect me.
We’re safely platonic.

Until the Ferris wheel incident.
Then we’re alone with a tension so thick you can chew it. Quinn kisses me like no tomorrow. Truly. Madly. All in.
I wanted to piece my life back together.
Will shattering the best friend zone leave us whole or heartbroken?

Whip Smart (The Loft Book 1)

Escaping her past is hard. Falling in love is even harder…

Teresa Bodnar is desperate for a fresh start. Scarred by her relationship with her cruel, controlling, and so-called “dominant” ex, she escapes to her hometown of Pittsburgh. Determined to move forward, Tera makes a bold move: founding the first club in the city to act as a safe haven where her most secret desires can be fulfilled.

But acting on those desires in the wake of the nightmare she left behind is something else entirely, especially when unexpected romantic entanglements complicate matters of business. Since the moment they met, the chemistry between Tera and easy-going Dominant Eric Yun has been undeniably scorching, yet Tera finds herself denying it at every turn. She has baggage to spare, and the high-strung submissive can’t afford to take any chances where her budding friendship with the sweet and dangerously seductive Eric is concerned.

Yet Eric has baggage of his own, and the more he chips away at her walls, the more Tera realizes it’s not just the drugging allure of his dominance that calls to her. She’s falling for him hard and fast, but if life’s taught her anything, it’s that the harder the
fall, the worse the pain – a pain she’d do anything to save Eric from. But the harder she resists their magnetic attraction, the faster her resistance seems to crumble…
