Stealing Hearts: an NSFW Excerpt!
“Where are we going?” Paige asks.
“Right here.” I pull off onto a narrow road behind the park and turn off my truck. It’s dusk, but with all the trees, it’s dark back here. I can’t wait a minute longer to touch her. “Come here.”
I unsnap my seatbelt, then hers, before I tug her over into my lap. She immediately straddles me.
“Thank you for my gifts, husband. I love everything.” She removes her cowboy hat and lays it on her seat before returning her attention to me.
“You’re welcome, beautiful.” The country store doesn’t carry designer brands, but Paige acted like we were shopping in Beverly Hills. She’s so grateful for everything I do for her. I’ve never been with a woman like her. Amber never appreciated anything.
“You’re too good to me.” She runs her hands over my beard and into my hair. I reach under her dress and grip her ass and pull her closer.
She grinds against my erection, and I groan. “Been dying to get my hands on you all afternoon.”
“And you couldn’t wait until tonight?”
“Fucking you in my bed is fine, but out here, where we’re alone, you don’t have to be quiet.” I grip her hair tight the way I know she likes. Then I nip her bottom lip before I kiss her long and deep. “I wanna hear you scream my name when you come on my cock.”
Her eyes grow hooded as she grinds against me. I can feel her heat through my jeans.
I reach between us. “Are you wet?”
She nods. “I’m ready.”
She tries to unbutton my jeans, but I push her hands away. “Baby, I need to check first.” I lower my seat before I snake my hand into her panties. I groan when I feel her hot slickness all over my fingers. I use that to rub her pussy, first around her opening and then around her swollen clit. A minute later, I sink two deep into her. “Work yourself on me.”
Paige shivers, and I tug on her sleeve. “Pull down your dress. I wanna see your gorgeous tits.” Then she unsnaps her bra, and those luscious beauties are in my face.
I suck on her nipple. I lick her and bite that sweet bud, and she groans.
“Feel good, baby?”
“So good.”
Once she’s warmed up, I remove my hand and hold the fingers up to her mouth. “Suck. See how good you taste.”

Stealing Hearts is Out Now!
Single father
Marriage of convenience
Brother’s best friend
Romantic suspense
Small town
Age gap
A marriage of convenience might save his ranch, but will it break her heart?
I don’t remember a time when I didn’t love Rhett Walker, which is complicated since he’s ten years older and my brother’s best friend. After a falling out, we didn’t speak for years—until today, when he found me sleeping in my car, threw me over his shoulder, and dragged me “to safety.”
He’s grumpy and overprotective and even more handsome than I remembered. I’m shocked to learn he’s in trouble. Someone is sabotaging his ranch, which is thirty days from foreclosure. He needs a loan from a friend who won’t extend the funds unless he’s married. Only Rhett’s now a single dad with no plans to fall in love again.
When his brother suggests I marry Rhett for health insurance so I can rehab an injury, my first reaction is hell no. I can’t afford to catch feelings for someone who won’t see me that way.
But spending time at the ranch reminds me how much is at stake—the family business, the welfare of Rhett’s children, and the happiness of a man I’ve always longed for.
Rhett says we’ll keep things platonic in private, even though I’ll be sleeping in his bed. He refuses to mix business with pleasure.
Except when the lights go out in his bedroom, our chemistry is too explosive to contain.
Would it be so bad to fall for Rhett? Or will he steal my heart all over again?
One thing’s for sure—the clock is ticking on our divorce.
Stealing Hearts is an age gap, marriage of convenience, single dad romance. If you enjoy grumpy cowboys, sweet but sassy heroines, a family of rowdy brothers, and secretive small towns, this book is for you!

It's cover reveal day!
SECOND DOWN DARLING is an angsty, forbidden romance that features a criminally sexy wide receiver, who’s a single dad (!!!), and his tortured best friend, who’s his ex's little sister. It’s angsty and sweet and super spicy. Jake and Charlotte had me deep in my feels as I wrote this, and I can’t wait to get it into your hands! Check out the blurb below.
ALSO, Second Down Darling is going straight into KINDLE UNLIMITED on August 7 and will only be available for pre-order on non-Amazon vendors, so be sure to reserve your copy asap!
ABOUT THE BOOK:
Jake’s my best friend and first love. There’s just one problem—he belongs to my sister.
I’ve been crushing on Jake for years, but never had the guts to tell him. One drunken night with my sister and two pink lines later, and he’s lost to me forever.
She doesn’t care that I met Jake Ramirez first. That he and I were best friends first. That I fell in love with him first. Because what my sister wants, my sister gets.
When she video-calls me and Jake accidentally walks by in the buff, something in me snaps.
Transferring to a different college might seem like a copout, but I have to get away from Jake and my sister before I say or do something I’ll regret. In an act of desperation, I ghost my old life.
For the next two years, everything is great—until I come face-to-face with Jake and his son, who my sister abandoned.
Jake’s the new wide receiver at my school, and he wants nothing to do with me, which is fine because I plan to keep my distance. Except we’re thrown together in the most dire circumstances that bring back all those old feelings.
They say everyone deserves a second chance, but my heart can’t handle breaking one more time.
