Flirt
https://watch.wave.video/86a23e60c1a6...
Max “Flirt” Browning has watched a group of men he considers more than club brothers take the plunge into family life. As the last man standing, he’s not opposed to following them—he’s just never found the right woman.
At least not before Brie walked into his life.
With her, he could see a future. Getting her to see that he was interested in more than a couple of sexual encounters a month could cost every ounce of control Flirt possessed. The control he needed as much as the air he breathes. For her—he’d do whatever it took.
Gabriella “Brie” Agassi has had to manage every aspect of her life, from raising a daughter to building a pediatric practice. With not much free time to pursue a relationship—and considering when she tried, it had been one disastrous date after another—she takes matters into her own hands and visits Whispering Nights.
At the club, she’d find a take-charge man to whom she could relinquish total sexual control for an hour or two. Giving her the break needed from her responsibilities to bring balance back into her life. Balance she hasn’t had since her fiancé died.
Meeting Max Browning, Brie wondered how much her need for balance was going to cost her. And if she’d be willing or able to pay the price.

Jag's Release Nov 15th
Dominic “Jag” Amara is calm, cool, and always in control. Being the club’s attorney and its VP, he needs to be, people depend on him. But he finds it all tested every time he comes in contact with a certain redhead. She pushes buttons he didn’t even know he possessed.
River Ramey is starting over with a new town, a new job, a new life. She needs and deserves it. What she doesn’t need are the feelings the arrogant biker brings out in her. She has already gotten rid of one man who tried to control her and has no plans to get tied up with another. No matter how attracted she is to him.
As River and Jag spend time together their pasts come calling—can they handle what the past stirs up—or will they let it pull them in different directions?

Devil
Devil was true to his name, but he settled down. Book 3 in the Black Hawk MC series available.
Lance “Devil” Cummings had put the past behind him for the most part until recently when he watched two of his brothers take the fall, bringing front and center everything he had lost. For his friends, he couldn’t be happier, but for himself - he couldn’t deny he wanted what they found – the one person meant to be his solace. What haunted Devil the most, was that he’d met her, possessed her, and then let her go.
Bailey Tolson left the bad memories behind when she moved from Shades Valley. When she returned to help her mother recuperate there was no time to spend focused on the past, at least until he walked in the door of her mother’s business.
Two people – one past. One with questions – one with the answers. Can wounds from the past be healed in the present to allow for a future? Join the leadership of Black Hawk MC as they work to get comfortable in their new roles. And watch as another one of the men learns that strength doesn’t always come in physical form, it comes from the women who stand beside them.

Hawk's Bounty Teaser
Coming Dec 27th
Charlie
“We do know each other, Red.” I tilted my face up to look at him.
“Physically.”
Kaden stopped dancing, dropped his arms, and stepped back. I couldn’t miss the irritated look on his face. He grabbed my elbow and began leading me out of the room and continued until we were in the parking lot.
A few members were off to one side smoking and Kaden turned us in the opposite direction. When we reached the end of the building he turned me to face him and stared down at me.
“I know you are a strong woman who likes to be in control of her life but who is still able to trust enough to turn over the reins. A woman who goes for what she wants and doesn’t care what others think about it. You’re able to look past a person’s exterior to what makes them tick. You moved across country to find a grandfather you’ve never met, even though you didn’t know if he would be accepting of the gesture. Family means something to you. You're not only happy with their achievements, you celebrate with them. And you never do anything halfway, it is all or nothing, to include love.”
No words came, I just stood there and looked up at him.
“How the fuck is that for knowing you, Charlie?” Before I could get anything to come out of my mouth, Kaden turned and walked back inside. I don’t know how long I stood there and stared at the spot where he disappeared out of my sight. But I did feel as though a piece of me walked away with him.

Falon's book Tatted and Tamed
Hope everyone enjoys Falon's book, it was fun to write. He and Mel compliment each other.
Falon O’Malley, the youngest of five brothers and a baby sister, is known in the family as the funny, obnoxious, and outspoken one. Women fall at his feet, and he’s never been ashamed to partake in what they offered, earning him the title of manwhore, at least until the day Carmelia Caparelli walked into his brother’s gym and showed him there was one woman who was immune to him.
Mel has spent the majority of her life working around men, so she’s used to being treated as one of the guys, a position she prefers. The drawback though, she loves sex and men, however, it’s hard to find one interested in her and able to accept that she doesn’t need taken care of, but has the ability to take care of herself and him. So when the outrageously good-looking tattooed friend of her boss shows interest in her, and doesn’t shy away from her strength, it’s just her luck that he is a playboy with no shame. But after Falon is shot, Mel realizes fighting her attraction to him is no use, that maybe it is time she focused her attention on taming him, instead of pushing him away.
The tables start to turn in the fight to find out who is behind the underground fighting that has caused several to lose their lives. However, the O’Malleys, the Macaroys, and the Roarks refuse to let any of it have an effect on their families more than it already has.
Enjoy the families as they prepare for a birth and weddings. And watch as one son, who no one thought would ever change, joins the ranks of the Tatted and Tamed.

Coming July 19th. Moose is a sweetheart!!
“Thanks for not mentioning to them that you saw me there. Keep me posted and I will do some digging, see what else I can come up with. When I have anything, I will be in touch.” We said our goodbyes and I hung up, turned around, and started the shower. Once it was heated I stepped in and let the hot water pour over my head and down my back. As I leaned against the wall with my hands, I closed my eyes and brought Katie’s face up and pictured the last time I saw it.
She had her dark brown hair in a bun and from where I stood, I saw her brown eyes sparkled as she received her diploma. She’d been beautiful as a sixteen-year-old girl but as a young woman in her twenties, she was gorgeous and looked ready to take on the world. I’d come that day to claim her as mine but instead, I walked away alone and tried not to look back.
Now after I listened to my dad, it brought everything with her front and center that I had long ago locked away. Her laugh, her smile, the first time I kissed her, the night I took her virginity, even her face with tears running down when I said goodbye to her to not only find a place for myself but to build something to share with her. She had her dreams too, and I wanted her to finish growing up and fill them. I wanted no regrets for her or me when I claimed her as mine.
As I stepped out of the shower, dried off and went into the bedroom to get dressed, the only thing running through my head was Kathryn Harris had been mine since she was six-years-old and pushed me in the pool when I told her girls couldn’t swim as good as boys.
I left the bedroom without a word to the woman in the bed, it might make me a dick but to me she and every other woman I’d bedded had only been to fill a need until I pulled my head out of my ass and went after what had always been mine.
First, Haven had to be cleared of its issues, then I had a woman to claim. I had a feeling the first was going to be a helluva lot easier than the second.

When Characters Take Control
Writing Pierced and Inked with Harley McRide was a blast, the drawback - characters that want their time. If you grown up in a large family, you will relate to the crazy that can come into a family. It is the O'Malley clan and extended family, they have a way of getting their point across. I hope the next book in the series works this well, even if Harley and I have to rein them in sometimes.
