CROSSING THE LINE – .99 Sale
Sale alert!! For a limited time, you can get my slow-burn, friends-to-lovers romance, CROSSING THE LINE, for only .99! Deal!

Your partner knows your secrets. Your partner watches your back. Your partner…is the star of your fantasies?
Linc Dalton knows that he is supposed to keep his hands off his partner…well, unless he is protecting Blair Kincaid’s gorgeous body. She’s his partner at an elite security and protection firm. Their job is to guard the wealthy, to take out the bad guys, and to generally kick butt. He trusts Blair completely. He admires her strength and courage. And he wants her desperately. Not that he ever intends to let her know that fun fact. Instead, he keeps up a fake persona where he offers her jokes and flippant comments.
Blair is straight-laced. By-the-book. Always by-the-book. Linc likes things a bit wilder. Control isn’t his strong suit, but, with a massive effort, he’s kept his control in place around Blair. With Blair, he’s on his best behavior…
Until he isn’t. Until they get a new case. Until they have to go undercover as lovers.
And, suddenly, Linc has to put his hands on Blair’s delectable form. He has to stay very close to her. Has to whisper sweet promises to her. Has to share the same bed with Blair. It’s just a cover story. He’s not really in love with her…except, one night, they cross the line. Stop being pretend lovers and become the real thing. Once Linc has Blair, there is no turning back. Giving her up isn’t an option.
She broke the rules, and for once, Blair doesn’t care.
She shouldn’t have done it. Blair knows she shouldn’t have let the desire she feels for Linc sweep her away. Yet she did, and now, everything has changed. She wants him more than ever before, and, surely, they can do this, right? They can be lovers and partners and still get the job done. As long as emotions don’t get involved, everything is fine.
Until it isn’t. Until Blair and Linc are targeted as prey. Until all of their emotions are out of control.
When their cover is blown, Blair and Linc find themselves being hunted. It’s a race for survival, and Blair knows that Linc has her back. Just as she has his. Prepare yourself…things are about to get wild.
The stakes are higher than they’ve ever been, and Linc and Blair are about to turn things red-hot. Molten level. Watch out…you just might get burned.
Author’s Note: These partners have been on a slow-burn path, but their desire is about to ignite into an inferno they can’t control. You ready to steam up the pages? We’ve got action, thrills, romance…and a hero who is funny, sexy, and willing to do anything to claim his lady. CROSSING THE LINE is a complete, stand-alone novel. Guaranteed happily-ever-after (though reaching that ending will sure be fun…and a wee bit dangerous). Enjoy!

SAVE ME FROM THE DARK – Available Now
Chloe and Joel are back! SAVE ME FROM THE DARK is available now!

He thinks the past is over. He’s dead wrong.
Dr. Joel Landry never expected to fall hard and fast for beautiful, mysterious, and maddening Chloe Hastings…but he did. Now he can’t imagine his life without her—and her band of misfit/shady friends. He thinks that he is finally putting his brutal past to rest as he and Chloe begin their new crime-solving partnership, but there are dark secrets pushing to the surface. Secrets that might destroy his relationship with Chloe.
She’s lying to protect him.
A killer has followed Joel to New Orleans. Someone who has been watching him for a very long time. Someone who wants to turn the doctor…into a monster. But Chloe isn’t about to let that happen. She’s found a man who suits her needs perfectly—and she will not let anyone take him from her. She will do anything necessary to protect Joel, even if that means hiding an unspeakable truth from him. Or killing to shield him. A woman has to do what a woman has to do…
Betrayal burns deep.
The darkness from Joel’s past is trying to swallow him whole, and when he learns that Chloe knew the truth about him from day one, his world explodes. A killer has Joel in his sights, and the killer wants to push Joel to the edge—and beyond. And the best way to do that? Take away the only person that Joel loves in this world. Take away Chloe.
Chloe is no one’s victim.
Chloe’s greatest strength is her ability to get into the minds of killers, and this time, her hunt for a murderer is personal. The killer in the dark has picked the wrong team to attack. Chloe and Joel are on the case, and they will not stop until the perp is the one begging for mercy. The hunt is on.
Author’s Note: Chloe and Joel are back! Their attraction is just as red-hot, their need for each other even stronger than before. Love, obsession? Maybe they are the same. Joel knows that Chloe turned his life around, and he can’t imagine his world without her. They’re hunting a monster, someone playing a very dangerous game, and it will take all of their cunning and deadly skills to stop a predator who has been manipulating his victims from the shadows. Thrills, chills, red-hot romance, and plenty of surprises are in store. Think you know Chloe and Joel? Think again.

SAVE ME FROM THE DARK – 4/20
It’s almost time…Chloe and Joel will be back next week (on 4/20!!) for another installment in the “Death and Moonlight Mystery” series!

I will be posting teases and chapter peeks very soon.
SAVE ME FROM THE DARK picks up shortly after the events in STEP INTO MY WEB. I do very much recommend that you read STEP INTO MY WEB before SAVE ME FROM THE DARK. Usually, my books are stand-alones, but this one is different. (SAVE ME FROM THE DARK focuses on the same hero and heroine that appeared in STEP INTO MY WEB. )
What can I say?? Chloe and Joel just had a big story to tell!
He thinks the past is over. He’s dead wrong.
Dr. Joel Landry never expected to fall hard and fast for beautiful, mysterious, and maddening Chloe Hastings…but he did. Now he can’t imagine his life without her—and her band of misfit/shady friends.

IMMORTAL DANGER – Available now!
Re-Release news!!
It has been twelve years (almost to the day!) since I first published my vampire romance, IMMORTAL DANGER. I recently received the rights back to this story from Kensington, and I’m happy to say that I have updated/revised the story…and it is available again now!

To get her help…he’ll have to bleed for her.
Adam Brody is desperate—he’ll do anything to get Maya Black to help him. And, unfortunately for him, the price of Maya’s services…is blood. A former cop turned vamp, Maya’s reputation definitely precedes her. Once upon a time, she helped the weak and innocent. Now, she spends her nights terrifying demons and all manner of paranormal beasts. According to the stories, she is the baddest of the bad…and she’s exactly the vamp that Adam needs. The only one who can help him.
Maya’s days (and nights) of helping are long gone—she stopped that routine when she bled out in a dirty alley and woke with bloodlust and fangs. But now she’s got a sexy stranger standing in front of her, offering her anything she wants, as long as she helps him find his missing niece. Okay. Fine. Maybe somewhere deep in her cold, cold heart, she has a vague soft spot for kids…and for gorgeous, muscled, hot guys. So she’ll help him. This once. She’ll take the blood payment he offers, and she’ll find the kid.
Except…
Adam has secrets. The kind of secrets that can burn a whole town straight to ash. The longer that he’s around Maya, the more uncontrolled he becomes as the beast he keeps locked inside himself fights for freedom. Adam didn’t count on falling for the fearless vamp, but now that he’s under her spell, Adam isn’t sure he can ever imagine a life without her…And when someone like Adam finds a mate, that bonding lasts forever.
Author’s Note: Strap in…it’s going to be one hot ride. Maya and Adam are about to fight the baddest of the supernatural predators out there. They’re also about to find out that opposites can attract—and ignite. IMMORTAL DANGER is a full-length, paranormal romance with a guaranteed happy ending.
If you haven’t read IMMORTAL DANGER before…this is a great time to snag a copy! Actually, you can get started reading the prologue and first chapter right now–they are up on my website.

IMMORTAL DANGER
Book news!!!
I am preparing to re-release one of my “classic” romances. A while back, I mentioned that I had gotten the rights back to some of my books that had previously been released with Kensington Publishing. I plan to be releasing a revised and updated version of IMMORTAL DANGER by the end of the week. If you love kickass heroines and hot, alpha heroes…I think you will enjoy this book.
Please note–my updated version is not at retailers yet. As soon as I load the book at retailers, I will let you know. (I am aiming for Thursday or Friday.) Meanwhile, though, I wanted to share the new cover and blurb with you. The cover on the top (with red letters) is the new cover, and the cover on the bottom (with the guy in the white t-shirt) is the old cover. I like to show old and new covers because the covers can sometimes help you to remember if you’ve read a book before or not!


And…here’s the blurb:
𝐓𝐨 𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐩…𝐡𝐞’𝐥𝐥 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐡𝐞𝐫.
