Book One in the Aztec Security series.
Ava Stanton may be one of Aztec Security's best agents, but following the rules has never been her strong suit. She dresses too sexy, lives too loud and likes her men disposable. And Thorn Abbott loves her despite-or maybe because-of it.
Thorn isn't exactly your average field agent-he's known more for being "Mr. Computer" than James Bond. When Ava goes on a dangerous mission, Thorn leaves the office behind to be her back up, determined to keep her safe no matter what.
The two embark on operation "Fly to the Spider," a high stakes game of seduction designed to trap a deadly criminal. It doesn't take long before Ava's seeing a whole new side of Thorn. Who knew he was hiding a killer set of abs beneath his conservative clothing? Maybe Thorn's love isn't so unrequited after all.
Soon they're dancing a dangerous two-step through the bayous of Louisiana, and between their igniting passion and the terrorists on their tail, it's difficult to tell who's the spider and who's the fly...

To Be A Survivor
Book #2 in the To Be A Runner series. If you haven't read book #1 I suggest you do that before continuing. Highest ranking #84 in Mystery/Thriller A blown up Township, one sworn enemy, a huge annoying crush, still no name, and a chance to speak again. Yep, that sounds about-wait, what? Abel is gone, the Major is back, and now we all have teamed up in trying to defeat the main enemy-the man who somehow knows how to make zombies blow up a township: Professor Van Ark. We know he's got something going on, but what we know is just the tip of the iceberg. He's the reason the apocalypse began. He's the reason Abel Township is gone. He's the reason Maxine isn't with Paula. I'm going to stop at nothing to stop him and whatever it is he's planning. I will stop at nothing to find out answers, but there's one thing I have to remember... Not all of us will make it out alive, and not all of us will make it out... unharmed. New friends, traitors, deaths, experimentations-all of it. It's all something I'm going to have to face, and I can only hope that I'll be able to survive it. Disclaimer: I do not own zombies run, or its characters. The only characters I own are the ones I've created. This is my Runner Five's view of season two with some things I like to imagine happened in between missions.Complete
Thorns & Oranges
Fresh off her freshman year of college, Emelina De Sota returns home for the summer. Normally coming home wouldn't be a problem but skeletons quickly start coming out of the closet faster than Em can shove them back in. It doesn't help matters when her overprotective big brother is the boss of the local Spanish Thorns. He puts her so far out of reach that she's comfortable with it at first. But when temptation is placed just down the hall from her, Em finds slipping back into old habits is easier than she originally thought. As her world rapidly starts to turn upside down, will Em choose to risk everything for a chance at the possibility of real love or will she stick with her guns and stay with her family, with what's safe? Book One in the Spanish Thorns Series ~ * ~ This story has a little bit of everything including the following in no particular order: romance, action, drug use, Adele, alcohol consumption, sex scenes, food, death threats, gang violence, street racing, bathroom breaks, medical problems, blood, singular point of view, kissing, cussing, guns, orange juice, and tattoos. This story is rated R. I struggled with this for a while, considering rating it PG-13 and placing the rather "graphic" scenes in a separate book but I believe it would take away from the story. My characters are considered adults in the eyes of the law and society and therefore do 'adult' things. For the most part, the story will be PG-13 but because I wouldn't split it, it's earned an R rating. Hope you understand.Complete
