Hard to Take, the highly anticipated second book in the Denver Kodiaks Series, is #availablenow on #allplatforms !
ONE CLICK HERE: https://books2read.com/HardToTake
My fake boyfriend is now…my new roommate?
Miles Garrett, pro basketball player and star of every one of my fantasies, has decided I’m moving in with him.
My brother’s teammate has always protected me out of loyalty. He makes me feel like everything will be okay even when my life is on fire.
But when he looks at me, I wonder what it would be like if he was truly mine. If I had the dream life and dream job and the dream guy.
Did I mention we can’t keep our hands off each other?
I hoped the proximity would get him out of my system. Turns out sharing a bedroom wall changes hungry looks and brushes in the hall into sweaty sessions and late-night confessions.
Miles keeps my secrets and sees me like no one else.
Too bad the playoffs are coming up and my brother doesn’t know.
The truth is going to be hard to take.

When I started writing basketball with Game Changer last year, I had no idea how obsessed with the entire Kodiaks team I would become - or how much my readers would love them!

I love a strong heroine and a hero who protects her. Banter that has you grinning like a fool. Plus fab friends and found family vibes.
They’re all here in full force in Hard to Fake… and I cannot wait for you to fall for these characters
Thank you for supporting me and the Kodiaks from the beginning! Kodashians forever

To my brother’s teammates, I’m off-limits. But when my sorority sister announces she’s bringing my ex to reunion weekend, I need a hot date…and fast.
It’s not every day you ask your brother's teammate to be your fake boyfriend. But desperate times call for gorgeous, heart-stoppingly impulsive measures.
Denver Kodiaks' sharpshooter Miles is a world-champion athlete with a smile that lights up the darkest room and a cocky charm that’s impossible to resist.
But to me, he's always been more: the guy who puts friends and family first, and my college crush.
When my sorority sister decides to bring my ex to the reunion, I need a swoon-worthy plus-one who can have my back and save my pride. It’s the perfect solution…until Miles raises the stakes for both of us.
He says he’s only playing to win. Except I wonder when his gaze hunts mine across a crowded room. When he protects me with a fierceness that steals my breath. When a make-believe kiss ignites a wildfire inside me.
I’ve built walls and acted tough, guarding myself from getting hurt again. Miles gets under my defenses and challenges me in ways I’ve never been challenged.
Soon, I’m fighting feelings that have been simmering for years. In the mountains of Vail, Colorado, our pretend relationship starts feeling dangerously legit…
Because it’s hard to fake what’s always been real.

I chose a championship over love.
When Nova smashed her way into my hardened heart, she showed me there’s more to life than basketball.
She taught me patience and forgiveness. With her help, my Kodiak teammates became brothers instead of rivals. For the first time, I cared about more than a game.
But one mistake sent me crashing from all-star to rock bottom.
Broken inside and out, there’s no one to blame but myself.
I won’t let the people I love suffer for my mistakes, on or off the court. I’ll win back the brothers who trusted me, the city that backed me, and the woman I don’t want to live without.
Unless I’m too late.
I have one last shot. One last chance.
Countdown's on, and I’m playing for keeps.
Play Maker is the third and final book in the King of the Court series. Clay and Nova’s steamy, addictive grumpy sunshine sports romance begins in Game Changer and continues in Shot Taker.

He leads the league in scoring. My heart won’t give him another shot.
I swore I’d never come back to Denver.
I’d never trust the wrong man again.
But here I am, back in the same place as the bad boy athlete who broke my heart.
Clay rules the basketball court, and now he’s gunning for redemption. But I'm not the same girl who fell for the man behind the all-star image and reputation.
He made me want him like I’ve never wanted anyone.
He made me feel like I was the only thing that mattered.
A single look can make me ache.
A whispered promise in his gruff voice makes my chest tight.
Clay’ll do anything to prove we’re worth another shot.
