Exciting Times in the World of Romance!
I'm still basking in the glow of the latest release, Her Unexpected Bodyguards! The response has been amazing, and I'm thrilled to see my characters bringing joy to readers.
Now, it's back to work! I'm hard at play on the next installment of the Theirs to Protect series. Can't wait to share more adventures with these beloved characters!
In addition to that, I'm diving headfirst into the next book in The Lost Dom Series, A Dom Worth Fighting For. This series will always hold a special place in my heart, and I'm eager to bring more drama, passion, and happily-ever-afters to the table.
And, as if that weren't enough, I'm also working on a brand-new dark romance novel. Details are still under wraps, but trust me when I say it's going to be intense! Stay tuned for the title reveal later this year...
It's shaping up to be an incredible year for romance readers, and I'm honored to be a part of it!

A Journey of Growth: Reflecting on My Writing Evolution
It's hard to believe it's been nearly a decade since I first put my writing out into the world. So much has changed since then – not just in my life, but in my craft. As an author, I've grown, learned, and evolved in ways I never thought possible. And while I'm proud of the progress I've made, I'm also humbled by the mistakes of my past.
Going through my older books has been a bit of a daunting task, but it's one I'm embracing wholeheartedly. I'm rewriting spicy scenes to better represent the relationships and themes I wanted to explore, fixing errors that detract from the story, and giving my beloved books new cover designs that reflect the essence of each tale. It's a labor of love, and I'm excited to breathe new life into these stories that have captured the hearts of so many readers.
I'm grateful for every reader, fan, and fellow indie author who's supported me on this journey. Your encouragement, feedback, and camaraderie mean the world to me. Without you, I wouldn't be where I am today – ready to share new stories and revitalized classics with the world.
Speaking of new stories, I'm beyond excited about my upcoming release, Her Unexpected Bodyguards, book two in the Theirs to Protect Series. This spicy, action-packed romance explores themes of BDSM and polyamory, delving into the complex relationships between multiple characters. I'm thrilled to share this journey with my readers and can't wait for you to meet the characters and experience the story for yourself.
The journey ahead is filled with promise – not just with new releases, but with the updates to my older works. I'm looking forward to sharing these refreshed stories with both new and longtime readers. Thank you for being part of this journey with me. Here's to many more chapters, and many more stories to tell!

A peek into the next book
----- You Are Ours-----
It was just after Mia had just taken a nosedive on to the concrete outside the club, the same one I'd hit. It was her birthday and I'd wanted her to wear this sexy little corset I'd never been able to fill out properly and this cute little mini that showed off her assets to the max. The end all had been a set of stilettos that had been held together with a few dinky straps, I should have known better than to make her wear. Mia had never been coordinated or graceful and I'd made her wear the worst possible shoes for her.
I was in a panic as Reed, the owner of the club, came out and carried her gently through the club into room in the back. He asked Jordan to stay with me until the ambulance arrived so I wouldn't go wandering and get myself into even more trouble.
They sent me into a kitchen in the back so I wouldn't stay out in the club with everyone else, apparently you weren't allowed in until you signed the confidentiality agreement. I was sat at the small one person table with my head lying on my arms trying hard to stem the tears rolling out of my eyes. I hated to cry I learned young that crying would never get me anything, but the anxiety of not knowing how Mia was and the frustration of my own guilt had the tears rolling at a steady pace.
I felt a hand on my shoulder and I spun around quickly thinking it was the owner with news about Mia. The man jumped out of the way just in time as my elbow passed within an inch of his stomach.
"Holy shit!" he shouted at the same time.
"Oh my God!" I cried as I stood up." I'm so sorry, I'm just really jumpy tonight."
He wasn't nearly as tall as the owner was, yet he was still had a few inches on me if I hadn't been wearing my heels. His hair closely shaved to his head, but I could still tell it was a blond, and his eyes were an interested gray color that I felt for a second I could get lost in. I got caught up looking at him in general unable to keep my eyes off his very muscular physique. He had to have been a full six foot of solid muscles. He was wearing a white T-shirt that stuck to every imaginable surface on his chest and I was certainly imagining it. My eyes caught on his muscular biceps and I could easily imagine him picking me up and putting me on the counter without much work. That thought sent a delicious shiver down my spine.
My eyes continued down ward, most men here worn a pair of skin tight leather pants, but not this man. This man wore faded jeans with holes in them making him look as if he'd just come from a construction site, which for all I knew he could have. I noticed he was barefoot, odd for a man, but it gave him a more heathenish appearance.
"Are you okay?" He asked me breaking me out of my admiration of him.
I shook my head to get him out of it and maybe remember why I was there. My mind was already foggy due to all the alcohol I had shoved into it tonight I didn't need a hot and sexy man clouding my judgment anymore.
"Yes, I'm so sorry. I'm just really anxious to know how my friend is doing." I said grabbing a napkin off the table and wiping my face with it praying my makeup wasn't too beyond repair. I felt an immense need for this man to find me beautiful even as I chided myself for thinking such a thing about him.
"She'll be fine, I'm sure. Master Reed is going to check on her and the ambulance is on the way as we speak." He said trying to reassure me.
Ambulance!" I squeaked, my hand flying to my mouth. "Oh no! What have I done? I just wanted to show her how cute she could look. Now she's going to the hospital and -"
"Stop," He said firmly, my mouth snapped close so fast I almost bit my tongue off. "The ambulance is strictly precaution. She did hit her head when she fell, Master Reed would feel a lot better if she was just checked out. As for you, yes it was a dumb thing for you to make your friend wear shoes she's not very adept at walking in. But you didn't push her down or trip her, it was an accident and I'm sure everything will be fine minus the helluva headache she's going to wake up with, so calm down."
I nodded miserably feeling only little better. I sat back down and pulled my cup of coffee closer, they wouldn't give me anything stronger, believe me, I asked.
"What's your name?" He asked sitting down across from me.
"Lizzie." I said staring into my cup of coffee miserably.
"What's that short for?" He asked.
"It's short for Elizabeth. Elizabeth Moore, and you are?" I said trying really hard not to glare at him. I hated my full name and never used it if I could help it.
"You can call me Master Jordan or Sir. Whichever you prefer." He said with a shrug.
I raised my eyebrow."Master Jordan? Now we aren't full of ourselves are we?"
His eyes darkened to a steel gray, he straightened in the chair he sat in across from me and just stared at me. I squirmed in my chair feeling distinctly uncomfortable under his gaze. I lowered my gaze to my coffee unable to take his stare anymore. He threw his head back and laughed making me jump straight up in the air.
"Yes, I am full of myself and I have every right to be. You can ask any sub here, they'll tell you I am one of the best. Do you know what that means?" He asked leaning in closer.
There was a whole table between us and I still felt as if he was crowding me. I leaned back and folded my arms over my chest and watched as his eyes followed the movement. I realized that my shifting had caused my breast to swell up and almost over inadvertently giving him an unhindered view of my cleavage. I dropped my arms down quickly and felt a flush of heat as he smiled at me with a distinctive predatory grin.
"No, I'm sorry, I don't." I lied trying to distract him from whatever thoughts were running through his head and hoping he would drop the subject.
"Have you ever heard of BDSM?" he asked with a knowing grin.
That bastard was on to me and it made me very....If I was to be honest, I'd say I was turned on by his attention and terrified, I couldn't help hearing the words 'he's way out of your league' running through my head. I shook my head as much to answer the question as to knock out the thoughts running around in my head.
"It's a form of erotic play." he said as if that explained everything.
"Erotic play? What do you mean like ... spankings and ropes? Because let me tell you, I know all about those and it's not all it's cracked up to be." I spouted off haughtily.
He smiled and shook his head.
"Honey, you have no idea what I'm talking about. This goes way beyond some little light rope play, so far beyond you may get scared." He warned leaning in close to me.
The fire in his eyes made me catch my breath as my blood began to heat up. He grasped my hand and began rubbing his thumb gently across my knuckles each pass sending another spike of heat through me.
"But feeling fear is normal... In fact some subs say it heightens the arousal"
My mouth went dry as he looked up at me from under his lashes his gray eyes sparkling with mischief, he knew exactly what he was doing to me, the freaking jerk. I snatched my hand back and had to curl it into a ball to keep from slapping him.
"I don't enjoy being played with and I can tell you right now, you son of a bitch. Yes, I know what a sub is and there's no way in hell I'm ever going to submit to you." I growled at him.
I saw several emotions cross his face anger, disbelief, but only one emotion made me quake. His eyes became hard as rock and his mouth clenched in determination and I felt myself stiffen knowing that I'd messed up.
"Oh, really?" he said softly. Yeah I was in deep shit.... I thought to myself.
