TANK IS RELEASED!!
OUT NOW!
Here is Tank and this one was an emotional and heartwrenching ride from beginning to end. Tank is a man who is not only intense when he's on the battlefield, but he's just as intense in everything he does. He might fight hard, but, as he comes to realize, he loves harder. This book is about family, letting go, overcoming fears and embracing change. Tank and the team encounter some tough adversaries and in the process Echo is terribly wounded. Tank is devastated, heartbroken, and resistant to taking on a new K9 partner. But, when Dr. Alyssa St. James, a woman he can't seem to dismiss like all the others, starts challenging his way of doing things, it's a battle of the wills. My fourth book in the SEAL Team Alpha series is ready for your eyes and hearts...

Description:
US Navy SEAL Thorn "Tank" Hunt has been there done that, but when he loses his best friend and military working dog Echo, he’s heartbroken, but he has to pick up the pieces and get another partner. He met tough as nails and way too confident for her britches, Army Reserve veterinarian, Dr. Alyssa St. James through his baby brother and her fundraising efforts on behalf of MWDs. The undeniably beautiful, but contrary woman takes on the mission to teach Tank some new tricks and in the process, discover that maybe every once and a while he could roll over and let someone else take the lead.
Doc, as Alyssa is affectionately known at her practice, has had to deal with plenty of macho assholes in her years as a reservist, but although Tank looks like one of them guys, he’s anything but. A big man with a big heart tears down her walls and barriers, except, getting involved with a military man like her jerky ex-husband seems counter-intuitive. The distance and the separation devastated their marriage. Determined to stay in control, she's compelled to help him when he is introduced to Bronte, a beautiful Belgian Malinois to replace the one lost in battle. Just as much a warrior as the man she is finding irresistible. But as their relationship progresses and Tank works himself deeper into her heart, can they take the hardships of serving their country in stride and make it work?

Description:
Billionaire Aiden Sinclair is taking one day at a time as he struggles with nightmares and his PTSD from his last tour of duty in the middle east. When his long-time Gal Friday, Faith Chapman drops a bomb on him that he’d never seen coming, he reacts badly and they part ways, but feels it’s for the best. He’s nothing but screwed up. Then, there’s an ultimatum from his father and Aiden finds himself homeless and penniless. Now he’s relying on Faith’s tender mercy as he’s drawn into her brainchild, Angel Paws, pairing dogs with wounded warriors, something that is close to his heart. Can Aiden allow himself to heal, ignore the paws already on his heart and accept Faith’s love?
Faith has been in love with Aiden from the moment she met him ten years ago when he took a chance on her right out of high school and hired her as his personal assistant. But after he came back from his tour of duty, he wasn’t the same man and Faith has struggled to keep her secret love for him under wraps. But when it slipped out during a close, tender moment with him and he reacted so badly to the declaration, Faith had no choice but to move on. Now Aiden is working with her to turn an inherited, rundown estate into a retreat for warriors mentally scarred from the battlefield and the amazing power of canine love to rescue these heroes. Will Aiden’s involvement help him to find his own path to healing? As they draw closer and closer together, can she even hope that he would ever return the love that still burns strongly in her heart and finally discover what matters most?

Description:
U.S. Navy SEAL Wes “Cowboy” McGraw goes home on leave to attend his tenth high school reunion. This brings him back into the orbit of a woman he knew in high school: Kia Silverbrook, renowned for her hacking ability. She’s always intrigued him and when they meet again by chance, the chemistry is still there as strong as ever. But Reddick isn’t home anymore since Wes lost the ranch after his father’s shocking death. He’s been saving up to buy it back, but he’s not sure he can go home again, especially now that he’s been pledged to the SEALs. He’s only home for a short period and long-distance relationships didn’t pan out for him in the long run. Cowboy has fantasized about this woman for years, the girl who was and is still worlds apart, one he’d never taken a chance on.
Hacker extraordinaire Kia has been making a sweet living doing some legal and not so legal hacking. But when a break-in makes her believe that a secret investigation she has been conducting may be blowing back at her, she doesn’t know where to turn. Except to Wes, the boy who had always intrigued her in high school with his cowboy charm and those ever-watchful, hot whiskey eyes. He was so far out of her league with her Goth dress and her pierced body. She has possible evidence that will knock Cowboy’s world off its axis, but now she needs Wes’s help. If this big, bad, gorgeous SEAL couldn’t keep her safe, she’d eat her computer. Could this man even look at her twice once the danger is over?

OUTREACH & CIMMERIAN SHADE BOXSET - ALSO GREAT DAY OF GIVEAWAYS!
Promo Tour for OUTREACH by Dariel RayeandCIMMERIAN SHADE boxset
Outreach: An Orlosian Warriors NovellaGenre: Paranormal Interracial/Multicultural Romance
Broken dreams, an ancient enigma tainted by the past, a mystical bond beyond time and space.
Three years after the accident, Jaci Allen believes she is as lost now as she was the day she awakened to the sudden, tragic deaths of her husband and two-year old daughter. When she accepts a new client, Andreus Shannon, a man who has been imprisoned since the age of 16, she soon realizes their connection is much more than chance.
Their meeting ignites the awakening of Andreus' frightening special gifts – gifts he has not only tried to hide from the rest of the world, but from himself. Through the bond they share, Jaci is introduced to a dark and deadly world she never knew existed. Can two shattered souls overcome their enemies and find a way to heal one another?
Andreus followed Jaci to her car and held the door for her to slide into the driver seat before walking around to the passenger side. The night air felt good, but his back began to ache, his shoulder blades and spine suddenly throbbing. He knew it was not a result of his workout. In addition to the pain, a sense of foreboding grew more intense the longer they remained outside.
The moment he saw her, memories started to resurface from his dreams, Jaci’s face front and center. They had never met before, but there was a strong connection between them in some way. When they touched, he had felt intense pain, hers, and he sensed that some entity or group of entities would take great measures to keep them apart.
“Thank you, Andreus. Nice to meet a rare gentleman these days.”
He had no idea what to say to her. Starting conversations wasn’t something he had ever been good at, so he simply watched the road, periodically surveying their surroundings.
“So Steve told me you didn’t eat anything. Prison food is the worst, so I’m sure you have a craving for something. I’m not much of a cook, but we can stop and get whatever you want. Just say the word.”
Jaci seemed oblivious to the ominous energy brewing around them as its intensity continued to grow, making it hard for him to concentrate on what she was saying. “You’re right. Prison food is crap, so I’m sure anything will be an improvement. I’d appreciate it if you just take me to one of your favorite places for takeout, so we can get inside as soon as possible.”
“Okay. You like seafood?”
“I’ll eat just about anything.” Andreus smiled, his pointed incisors scraping the inside of his upper lip.
“You’re easy. There’s a nice place close by with some variety, so if you have a taste for more than one thing, that’s fine too.” When he didn’t respond, Jaci glanced at him, her dark eyes narrowed. “You okay, Andreus?”He didn’t want to alarm her, but he knew she would have to deal with whatever dangers they were about to face, sooner than later. His ability to concentrate was now nonexistent. The pain in his shoulder blades had become unbearable, as if someone was tapping their way out with a sledgehammer. “No. We need to hurry and get off the—”
Sssss! Boom!
Andreus felt the air crackling around them just milliseconds before a single bolt of lightning came out of oblivion, striking the ground in front of them and knocking out two of the car windows. Sudden, inexplicable seismic activity shook the ground directly underneath.

KID CHAOS IS RELEASED!
OUT NOW!
The second book in my SEAL Team Alpha series is an adrenaline rush with the larger than life Kid Chaos who was so sassy and ballsy in Ruckus, book 1. Roped into a mission with NCIS hottie, Paige Sinclair who's undercover in Bolivia to investigate a suspect in a massive weapons theft and the deaths of two MPs, Kid takes the danger and mission in stride. Where he gets tripped up is handling the personal side of Paige, gun shy after two ugly break-ups. A fling might be the thing if he could deal with these pesky emotions like: admiration, lust, tenderness and respect. Like a good partner, he would have her back, all the while wanting every other part of her to be his...including and especially her heart.

U.S. Navy SEAL Ashe “Kid Chaos” Wilder doesn’t do sedate, so packing a novel and namby-pamby sunscreen for a Caribbean vacation doesn’t float his boat. Instead, he’s going to ride down the world’s most dangerous road on a mountain bike through the treacherous Andes in the wilds of Bolivia. His now ex-girlfriend thinks that he is much too crazy for her, and, sadly Ashe hasn’t found the right woman to understand or tolerate his daredevil proclivities until he runs smack dab into Paige Sinclair. She’s not only as audacious as he is, but their chemistry is off the charts.
NCIS agent Paige Sinclair is undercover in La Paz, Bolivia. She’s been tasked with investigating one of the co-owners, a former CIA operator, of a tour company for his possible involvement in arms theft that left two MPs dead. When she meets Ashe, and sparks fly, she loses her head and has a thing with him, not expecting it would go anywhere, her job took up all her time. Except when the investigation heats up, she’s thrilled to have a well-trained Navy SEAL covering her back. As they join in battle to find the weapons and stop the bad guys from selling them to terrorists, those sparks turn into a flame that could heat up the Andes.
