Ardent Currents - Book 1 One lost his dream. One found his heart. In a far future, two men find their fates in each other. Jamar Devereaux I told myself that all I ever wanted was my mother's company. It's why I'm back home to study business. Deep down, I know I only tell myself this lie because I can't have my true dream. He ruined all that for me... and then the accident stole my memories. Now, Mother's managed to put us in the sights of the Union's most notorious loan sharks. And what they want just might be the end of my life as I know it. Alaric Mako I've hunted him for so long, and at last, I'll finally make him mine. Summary: In a far off, technology-driven future of corporate dynasties, news-fluencers, and ruthless debt law, two men are forced into each other's orbit-and into an arranged engagement that only one of them wants... and the other didn't expect to crave. Jamar Devereaux returned home to inherit his mother's empire. But when she defaults on a dangerous loan to the most feared loan sharks in the Union, he's forced to save her-and himself-by agreeing to marry into the Mako family, notorious for collecting their debts with blood, time, and vengeance. His fiancé? Alaric Mako: the devastatingly handsome, cold and calculating heir who's spent years watching Jamar from afar. Jamar can't remember their brief past before his accident-but Alaric hasn't forgotten. As passion flares and old secrets resurface, enemies become lovers and hunters become the hunted in a deadly game of power, trust, and desire. In this world where loyalty is hired and love is a liability, can two men rewrite destiny?

3 Days SF Thriller For struggling filmmaker Andie McKenna, life could be better. Her fledgling film company is on the rocks. She's seventy-two hours away from being kicked out of her rent-by-the-week shoe box of an apartment in the dodgiest part of San Francisco, and her marriage is on life support. And if things couldn't get worse, she receives a cryptic telegram from the Mexican orphanage where she grew up: "Come quick, your father is dying." Interesting, since she's an orphan. Andie rushes to the orphanage where she grew up to find Father Pakal Ramirez, the priest who raised her, alive and well. He's going into the jungle after a lethal parasite, and he wants to see her one last time in case he doesn't return. When Andie is accidentally exposed to the parasite, Pakal draws her blood and gives her an anti-parasitic. She reacts to the medication and passes out. When she wakes, Pakal is gone. Furious beyond words, Andie returns to San Francisco to find the Bay Area plunged into chaos. Something fell from the sky and crashed north of the Golden Gate Bridge. Something not made by humans. And then there's the frozen, long-forgotten vial of blood, padlocked in a metal box and buried in the orphanage's freezer. Blood that will impact Andie's life irrevocably and shatter the illusion that we are alone in the universe.
