It’s New Release Day, and I’m Missing

Well, hopefully not literally, but as the family and I are out hiking today, there’s no telling what’s going on. The only good news is we’re unlikely to walk up on a bear, considering the ideal thing to do is travel in large, noisy groups, but if we do happen to make the news, y’all can all say you know me. Or pretend you don’t. Anyway, today kicks off a brand new series for me with Entangled Indulgence. Those of you who read The Marriage Agenda are familiar with Knox Hamilton, and now everyone is about to meet his cousin, Jagger. (You. Are. Welcome.)


“Mad, bad, and dangerous to know…” – Lady Caroline Lamb on poet and notorious rake George Gordon, Lord Byron


THE MILLIONAIRE’S GAMBLE (Mad, Bad Hamiltons #1)


TMGWealth has a price. Everyone wants something from you. For one woman, that something was my DNA. One minute, she was kissing me like we were going to strip it down and go at it. And the next, she was ripping out my hair for a paternity test—and threatening to torpedo my latest deal. I don’t play these kind of games. And that damnably sexy woman with the alluring eyes and mistaken agenda is about to learn that the hard way…


Millionaire scion Jagger Hamilton didn’t father Kennedy Price’s nephew. That doesn’t mean he can’t use the situation to his advantage. She wants him to take a paternity test. He wants her in his bed.


He shouldn’t.


She’s blackmailing him, and she’s playing dirty. He could try to use the famous Hamilton charm to turn her into a powerful ally… But she makes him feel… Way. Too. Much.


Kennedy Price isn’t asking much. Just for the powerful, sinfully hot, and notorious playboy to be a decent human being. But he’s used to using that filthy, sensual mouth for getting what he wants.


And he wants her.


She’s determined not to fall for him. But there’s no avoiding his charisma, or his bed, where she threatens to lose more than the standoff between them. She just might lose her heart.

EXCERPT

When Kennedy doesn’t show up at Jagger’s suite, he goes after her.


“What’s so funny?” Jagger’s actual voice startled her, then washed over Kennedy, doing everything the whiskey had the night before. Every neon light in the place seemed to scream that he was dangerous, but she couldn’t bring herself to take a much-needed step away.


“You wouldn’t believe me if I told you,” she said without looking in his direction. She knew he stood behind her. She could feel that much, and she hated that she had to be so in tune with him that she could feel his proximity.


“I was disappointed when you didn’t show.” As he spoke, his lips grazed her ear, then her neck. He stood almost against her back, and the urge to give in was almost more than she could handle.


Her thoughts immediately skated back to the plane, and her body weakened and begged as if his mouth were on her right then. This man was so much more dangerous than she’d ever imagined, and if she was going to survive any time in his orbit, she was going to have to throw up walls. Fast. “You would have been more disappointed if I had.”


“Not possible.” He sold his cocky self-assurance like a seduction.


She tried to harden her voice to something above the whimper in her throat. The words were easy…hiding that she wanted him, something else entirely. “If you tried to throw me out of your room in the middle of the night after you were finished,” she managed, “you would have been more than disappointed. You would have been disappointed and limping.”


“What makes you think I would have been finished before the sun came up?”


She shrugged, feeling none of the nonchalance she feigned. “Your rules.”


He laughed quietly. “Is that what’s in play? Because I have another one, and it’s called finishing what I started.”


“I’m sorry to hear you didn’t finish,” Kennedy said. “I didn’t know that was a particular problem of yours.”


At her words, two sets of eyes shifted from the blackjack game to her, then Jagger. He must have noticed, because he took her hand and led her away from the table, closer to the scene of their original crime. All she had to do was see the spot on the floor where they’d stood for that kiss, and she grew boneless and weak.


She hated weakness.


And he apparently hated small talk, because he didn’t waste time on it. “It’s not,” he said on a growl. He immediately put his mouth on hers, using her surprise to deepen it, taking her right back to that kiss on the plane. Brimming with intimacy and promise, it had no business in her life, and neither did he. She willed herself to break free, but in the aftermath, looking in his eyes was far worse. The intensity there was devastating. It made her feel like he was actually seeing her, and she knew that was a lie.


He saw a conquest. Unfinished business.


Half a night with someone in his bed.

Introducing Steel Hawk: A New Brand of Heart-Pounding Romantic Suspense

The stupendously amazing Eve Devon is here on release day to introduce you to the men of Steel Hawk. Catch up now…the series concludes in August with my very own contribution. Want to know more? Keep reading!


Introducing STEEL HAWK – a company of alpha-honorable heroes and spirited and strong heroines…


Heart-pounding romantic suspense set in a world of high-tech security, feuding royals, and missing diamonds. Strap in for sizzling chemistry and fast-paced, thrilling action all the way!


It all starts with an historical romantic suspense set in the birthplace of great engineering and design, The Great Exhibition, London, 1851:


to-love-a-thief


To Love a Thief, Steel Hawk, Book 1, by Jane Beckenham


BUY LINK: AMAZONSAMHAIN


It’s one thing to lose your heart. Quite another to have it stolen.


Years ago, notorious jewel thief “The Raven” vanished into the shadows. In 1851, Nathan Hawk emerges into a life of respectability, determined to make up for past sins.


He and his business partner are introducing a lock they’re so sure can’t be broken, they’re displaying a priceless diamond, the Pasha Star, at the Great Exhibition. It’s bad enough catching a light-fingered young man trying to steal the stone. Worse when he realizes it’s the daughter of his old mentor.


Rose Valetta’s father has been kidnapped, and she needs the Star to buy his freedom. She never expected to come nose-to-nose with Nathan. Their reunion is fraught with tension, especially when they discover the diamond in Nathan’s impregnable case is not the Pasha Star.


With Nathan’s reputation in tatters, they race to find the real stone before it’s too late for Rose’s father. Too late to save the empire from a usurper. And too late to keep from losing their hearts.


Product Warnings

Contains a woman who dreams of a world with a level playing field, and an ex-thief who can run from his past but can’t hide from it.


And moves to present-day: Steel Hawk has prospered for 150 years, securing some of the world’s most treasured possessions. But now a secret from the past threatens to destroy the company and a new generation must take up the fight.


heart-of-steel

Blurb: Heart of Steel, Steel Hawk, Book 2, by Eve Devon


BUY LINK: AMAZONSAMHAIN


Colleague, friend, lover…beautiful liar?


Adam Steel is in crisis mode. A recent exposé claims a founder of Steel Hawk was actually The Raven, an infamous jewel thief. Amid the ensuing damage control, all eyes are on his ability to develop a prototype to secure and protect the royal Pasha Star diamond.


He’s further blindsided when he learns his assistant, Honeysuckle Hawk, has a sordid past he never knew about. Proving he never really knew her, never should have trusted her, and definitely shouldn’t start falling for her.


With her dirty laundry flapping in the media storm, Honeysuckle’s first instinct is to run. Two things make her stay: Adam’s insistence it’s better to show the world a united front, and her heart’s insistence by his side is where she belongs.

High stakes and long hours ignite passion…until the diamond is stolen and Adam’s own prototype shows Honeysuckle is a thief. Dare he trust her to help him expose the real criminal—before the mastermind wreaks havoc on the royal family?


Product Warnings

Contains an über-hot, alpha-geek who’s good with his hands, a sassy reformed-rebel determined to prove she’s not a flake, romantic castles, gorgeous jewels, sleek and sexy technology, heart-pounding suspense…oh, and nipple tassels!


But with the battle only half-won, STEEL HAWK is about to learn that trust has a price…


DangerousIllusions300

Dangerous Illusions, Steel Hawk, Book 3, by Sarah Ballance – publishing August 16


Keep your lovers close, your enemies closer. Especially if they’re one and the same.


With Steel Hawk still reeling from explosions at Zarrenburg Castle and at its own headquarters, company lawyer Edward Long’s legendary stoicism has been severely tested. It’s clearly an inside job, and no one is deeper inside than Edward—which leaves him squarely in the center of a frame.


Someone is using him to bring down the company he loves. Worse, the PI that Adam Hawk sends to investigate…there’s something off about her. And something that seriously turns him on.


Operating under an assumed name, Sophie Hawk aims to dig deeper into the company’s systems than any other investigator would dare. Especially with the prime suspect’s hot-chocolate gaze tracking her every move.


As their dueling intellects strike sparks, the rising heat threatens the trip wires Edward has set up around his heart—and the secret that ties him to a man who’ll stop at nothing to claim his right to rule the house of Zarrenburg. Or, if he can’t have it, destroy it—and everyone connected to it.


Product Warnings

Contains agonizingly sweet kisses, dirty thoughts, dirtier talk, mutual trust stretched to the limit, and criminal abuse of a thousand-dollar suit jacket.


About the STEEL HAWK Authors:

Take three authors from three different corners of the world…


Jane Beckenham writes historical and contemporary romance after falling for stories about love and hope. Inspired by happy ever afters she found her own true love and together they adopted and raised two daughters.

Sarah Ballance lives on the US mid-Atlantic coast with her husband and children. She writes in many genres and loves creating unforgettable stories while putting her characters through an unkind amount of torture—a hobby that has nothing to do with living with six children!

TTWA coverTHE THREE-WEEK ARRANGEMENT (Chase Brothers #3)

With him, there’s no faking anything…


Ethan Chase isn’t interested in dating. After losing the woman he loved more than life itself, he’d much rather ride solo, but his family is dead set on fixing him up. To get them off his back, he hooks up with ultra-adventurous, ultra-temporary adventure photographer, Rue Campbell. All he has to do is survive three weeks in her orbit and he’ll be single again, only without the pitying looks and pressure to move on.


Rue is literally counting the days until her plane leaves New York City. The last thing she wants is a relationship, but being Ethan’s pretend girlfriend can’t hurt, right? Wrong. With Ethan, there’s no faking anything–in or out of the bedroom. With the sheets burning hot and the clock ticking on their arrangement, Rue realizes she’s falling for a man guaranteed to derail her goals…and break her heart.

EXCERPT


The instant Rue hit the mattress, Ethan was there with her. Allowing enough distance to remove clothing nearly broke him, but none so much as the sight of her lying there, moonlight filtering through the open blinds, body open and receptive to him. A distant warning sounded, but he tossed it to the floor with his jeans and nudged between her legs.


“In the drawer by the bed,” she said. “Any day now.”


He laughed, and it hit him how happy he really was. Happy. Fucking hell, why did it have to be with her? With the woman he knew he’d never have? And shouldn’t. He squashed the thought, grabbed the condom, and was buried between her thighs before the second thoughts hit. He rolled into her, feeling raw and wild as he surged deep inside her while she tore at the sheets, fisting them again and again. His name was a plea on her lips, her body a torrent of surrender when he planted his hands on either side of her head and drove hard, rocking the bed against the wall while she begged for more. Begged for harder. He didn’t know anything like it. Never had. And when she shuddered and seized beneath him, she took him with her, pleasure exploding into bright points of light that left him dizzy and lost.


Lost. Yeah, there was a word for it.


He managed to fall to the side, sweat drenched, chest heaving, world turned upside down. Again. His lips stung with her kisses, and his blood ran like hell through his veins.


He could chase that feeling every day for the rest of his life.


“I get it,” he said. “I get why you’re leaving.”


She turned her head and, looking at him across the pillow, smiled, so soft and sweet he ached inside. Then she curled her fingers around his and ripped out his heart.


“My mother?” she asked with a grin.


“No. The rush. The freedom. I envy you, you know. The world is yours, and I don’t think you’re afraid of anything.”


“I wouldn’t say I’m not afraid.”


“But you know you’ll be okay.” And wasn’t that the damned difference? He squeezed her hand, then extricated himself from her touch and then her bed. She stared openly while he dressed, never once asking him to stay. That was who she was, though, and whether or not he appreciated it, he got it.


Not that it mattered.


She had a flight to catch.


He’d be better off to stop worrying about her and start figuring out how to get through the gala. Once that was over, he could go back to his safe, normal life. The one without the quirky, car-kicking brunette with the scary clown pajamas.


He’d be able to breathe again.


Whatever that was worth.
