He's Irish Sass in a jersey. She's chaos in sequins. What could possibly go wrong? Galen McKenna has one rule: don't fall in love. Or fall over. Or fall at all, really-he's a hockey player, not a romantic hero. When the Irish wildcard lands a golden ticket to Crystalcrest Ice Hockey Academy, he's determined to finally get his act together, keep his past in the rearview, and definitely avoid screwing things up. Again. His plan? Train hard. Stay focused. No drama. Don't be a melter! Too bad nobody warned him about the glitter tornado on skates living in his new home. Hunter Fairlane lives to skate. She's got a championship to win, a promise to keep, and a skating partner who'd rather sulk than spin. But when Galen crashes-literally-into her life, the last thing she expects is for her heart to start skipping beats. She's skating for love. He's skating for redemption. When attraction sparks between the boy who's afraid to feel and the girl who feels everything, the ice might just melt under their feet. This stand-alone novel, featuring Galen McKenna, is a spin-off from my soapie, Hunting the Fairy Tale. No prior knowledge is required.

The Dark City Chronicles ⁓ Book Three The apocalypse looms ever closer! Steamy romance, heart-stopping action, seductive vampires, magic that defies nature, sprinkles of dark-humor, and, as always, the everlasting bonds of friendship. Hannah's struggling to survive in a vicious world of monsters. The cost of dark magic is steep, and she nearly lost everything, but she can't dwell on her misery because there's a baby that needs her to fight. And she will. She'll fight until her last breath for that child's future. The demon she's been carrying might just hold the answers they need to tip the tide of coming darkness in their favour, but that's only if she's willing to pay his price. There's a prophesied beast he has to vanquish. A vampire gone mad that's killing indiscriminately. And countless enemies are vying for his head and the lives of everyone he loves. Kane will have to salvage his broken family, train harder than he's ever dared, and then kill all the foolish bastards who thought they could put him on their deranged chessboards and not suffer his wrath. Reid hears voices, not the rational kind. These are whispers that speak to his darkest desires. He'll have to delve deep into his family history and break a curse that his lineage has suffered for centuries before he can no longer defy their musings. The bells are tolling, and if he wants to thwart their augury and resist the allure of darkness, he'll need to choose love and hope it's enough. [COMPLETED]
