The Queen's Scalpel Dr. Amara Queen has spent her entire life being underestimated. A child prodigy who graduated college at thirteen and became one of the youngest surgeons in history, Amara has dedicated her life to saving others. At twenty-five, she's opening her own state-of-the-art clinic, determined to build a medical empire on her own terms. To the public, she's brilliant. To her patients, she's compassionate. To the people she loves, she's fiercely loyal. To everyone else? She's cold, calculating, and impossible to read. When a wounded man is rushed into her clinic at two-thirty in the morning, Amara expects another emergency surgery. Instead, she comes face-to-face with Lorenzo Vitale. At twenty-eight, Lorenzo is the newly crowned head of the notorious Vitale crime family. Tall, tattooed, devastatingly handsome, and feared throughout the state, he's spent the last two years expanding his family's criminal empire after his father's untimely death. Most people fear Lorenzo. Lorenzo quickly learns he should fear Amara. What begins as a late-night surgery turns into an unexpected partnership when Lorenzo offers to secretly finance her growing clinic. Beneath the polished halls of Queen Medical Center, a hidden underground hospital is built-one designed for patients who can never appear on official records. As rival families close in, corrupt politicians pick sides, and law enforcement begins connecting dangerous dots, Amara finds herself pulled deeper into Lorenzo's world. And to everyone's surprise-including their own-they discover they're perfect for each other. She's the scalpel. He's the sword. Together, they're unstoppable. But power comes with a price, and as their empires grow, so do the enemies determined to tear them apart. Because when a queen falls in love with a king... The entire kingdom bleeds. A dark mafia romance 😈

NEEDS EDITING THIS IS A FIRST DRAFT You thought you knew Jax Miller. Elias's loyal best friend. The easy-smiling golden retriever of The Inkwell. But behind that grin, the ex-Navy SEAL is hiding a war-torn soul and the trauma of a battle he cannot outrun. Jax returns to Oakhaven searching for peace, only to collide with Matilda "Tilly", the shy childhood best friend who pushed him away fifteen years ago. Tilly is back in town, working at The Heath Bakery and trying to rebuild her life after fleeing a cheating ex-fiancé who has now become a relentless stalker. Jax's protective instincts, fuelled by pain he refuses to face, snap into focus the second he sees her again. To keep Tilly safe, he suggests a fake relationship. A visible shield against the man terrorising her. But as the line between their protective lie and the feelings they buried years ago begins to blur, Jax is forced to confront the truth he has spent years hiding. And Tilly must decide whether she can trust the only man who once let her go. Find out what happens when the heart of a protector is finally put to the test. Fake Dating. Second Chance. Protective Ex-SEAL. The Protector is a friends-to-lovers romance featuring a protective ex-SEAL and a shy bakery worker caught in a fake relationship while a dangerous stalker threatens the life they are trying to build together. *** They are set in the same universe with the same characters; however, their stories are a bit different. In the first book, you don't know Tilly, but in this book, she comes in when Charlotte is nearly a year old. When I was writing Wildflower, I had no intention of making a second book, but after a while, inspiration struck, and I didn't want to touch Wildflower, but Jax and Tilly's story worked well in this time frame and i realised i have free will and can actually do whatever I want, so they techinaly work well as 2 standalones just set in the same town. CAN BE READ AS A STANDALONE
