Kendall Rossi isn't your average thirteen-year-old girl. At the young age of five her brothers dropped her off at an old orphanage which they claimed would be way safer and more practical than living with them and their Italian mafia problems. That wasn't the case. For years Kendall was switching from foster family to foster family. Some were sweet, some just needed the cash, and some had awful intentions. Like Gaston Tremblay, her current foster father. A couple years after the Rossi brothers left Kendall, they realized how much they craved and needed the little girl's bubbly and joyful personality in their life. They spent three full years trying to find Kendall but there was no trace of her. They eventually gave up and adopted a little girl around the age of eleven who would have been two years older than Kendall at the time. May, the little girl did help tie the broken family together, but it still wasn't the same, but they learned to cope and almost fully erased Kendall out of their lives. Until Alessandro Rossi the eldest of the brothers received a shocking phone call that would soon change their lives.

When I started posting my stories online, I didn't expect much traction. It was a fun outlet for the ideas I had swirling around my head. My husband supported my crazy storylines and listened to me narrate out loud the silly plots I planned to write. When a publisher contacted me to see if I would be interested in releasing one of my stories, I thought I was dreaming. I soon discovered it was all a prank and my favourite hobby turned my world into a real life storyline of betrayal and heartbreak. TW: - Online abuse/bullying - Betrayal by H (no cheating)

Everyone says what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. But what if you live there? Eliza thought she had the kind of life everyone wants - a busy career, a husband she'd loved since college, and a tight circle who felt more like family than friends. They celebrated birthdays together, showed up for each other's milestones, and knew one another's secrets. Or at least she thought they did. This is a story of deeply twisted connections between five friends. The tangles reveal themselves bit by bit as Eliza, Ben, Miles, Vanessa and Colin learn the truth about each other, and themselves. In the end, does anything hold or does it all unravel?

Because the moment Grace starts to matter, everything shifts. Tensions rise, threats surface, and Ash finds himself crossing lines he swore he wouldn't - especially for someone like her. She's survived the worst the world could throw at her. But in a place where trust is earned in bruises and belonging is paid for in blood, learning to be protected might be the one thing that breaks her. -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_- Very slow burn - don't say I didn't warn you! But worth it, I promise. Enemies to lovers vibes. Intended for audiences 18+

Lexi Nelson interests me in a way no woman has in years. Unfortunately, she wants nothing to do with me and makes so secret of that fact. My friends are baffled watching me chase after this cold, prickly woman who seems to have nothing but disdain for my very existence. One passionate encounter in a parking lot, however, leaves me convinced that Lexi isn't what she seems to be, and if I can just get her to let me in, I'll find enough warmth to last a lifetime. The only thing that's certain, however, I can't walk away now even if I wanted to. Once bitten, twice shy. I know what happens when I let men get too close; I know not to trust their sweet whispered words and promises of love. I won't let myself be hurt that way again. So I will ignore the way Daniel Wright's smile makes my stomach flutter like I'm a girl with her first crush. And I'll ignore everything inside me that wishes I could trust what he offers. But after a small lie that I told my mother to stop her matchmaking snowballs, I might not have a choice but to let Daniel in. The deal was, we pretend we're in a relationship until after my sister's wedding. The rules: no sex and no feelings. But the closer Daniel and I get, the more I'm tempted to throw out the rules and give him everything. But when the past comes back to haunt both of us, I have to decide if I'm willing to trust again or if I'm going to walk away for good. This is the second book in my Home In Cedar City series. Book one: Love, Second Chances and Other Nonsense is currently available to read on Amazon KU. This is a fake dating, grumpy/sunshine story with angst and OW drama. HEA guaranteed.
