Summer, Sex & Sadism.
A tale of a sleepy British seaside town and what goes on behind the facade.
They didn't know his name. He didn't see them coming. It was supposed to be the start of a whole new chapter, the end of school and the end of summer. But when you live by the sea, in a town that is only alive for three months a year, new starts are pretty hard to come by. **** is going nowhere fast in a world that's passing him by, but when he sees Grace dancing in the sand, he finally has something to live for. And something trying to end his life.
Soon **** owes Amstrad and Sinclair a lot of money. The two most dangerous men in his seaside slice of hell. He could leave, skip town and never come back. But he can't leave Grace, not when he's falling more in love with her every second, not when he discovers the truth. It's time to start living, to grapple with what it means to be in love, be an adult and be responsible. What **** didn't count on, was the addictive taste of sex, drugs and power.
For fans of the romances of John Hughes, British crime thrillers like Trainspotting, Layer Cake, and Peaky Blinders, and those looking for something different. Broken Halos is an alternative romance set against a backdrop of violence and shady deals, hedonism and sexual awakening. It's Summer, Sex and Sadism.

Brave Enough To Love Again
I stood with my back to her, shielding her, and my murderous eyes stared down at the poor excuse of a man, promising unimaginable pain if he dared to move or even flinch. The enormity of control it took me to suppress the impulse to eradicate the piece of scum, who dared to even think about laying a hand on a woman, was inconceivable. My whole body was trembling with rage. The guy was intimidated by the fury in my eyes and stumbled back to his intoxicated friends who were too dazed to understand the situation. I was disappointed and relieved at the same time that the chaos didn't end in a fist fight. When I turned around to console her, she was gone. And as I looked around, I saw her back just leaving the bar through the entrance. I hurried out to follow her. She walked ahead of me aimlessly and disoriented like a wounded animal that had just escaped the claws of death. My heart ached for her. I found a kindred soul in her. She evidently had been wounded in the past. Just like me. But in an even worse way than I had been hurt, and it angered me, that someone had dared to harm her. *** Eden Marie Simmons is still recovering after escaping an abusive relationship when she meets Keane, the broody and enigmatic neighbor who is shrouded in mystery. Both are still being haunted by their past and are not ready for a new commitment, but when fate repeatedly puts them in each other's paths, they can't deny their attraction for each other. Life challenges them both with secrets, lies, and broken trusts, and confronts them with their pasts. They both must learn to be brave enough to love again. *** Story is previously called "Paradise Lies"Complete
FRACTURED: A Broken series novel, Book 4 (PREVIEW)
They thought they had everything figured out, but the one thing they didn't plan for was me. One minute and ten seconds... Without life. Without a heartbeat. Without breath. Without thought. That's how long I was able to abandon my heartache before the doctors revived me. I know I should've been thankful for the miracle. Few people get to experience death and live to tell about it. Yet, as I lay in a sterile hospital room, reliving the moment I became a martyr for the woman who didn't want me anymore-who gave her heart back to her last love-I felt the weight of some brutal truths. I'd lost my girl, my mobility, and my life. I wallowed in them. Took them out on the people unlucky enough to care for me. That included the beautiful blonde nurse with chocolate brown eyes and a smile that made me forget the pain that put me there. But I left her ten months ago, and I didn't expect to see her again. At the same mall. About thirty feet away. With a man's arm wrapped around her neck, restraining her. And he's not alone. His men have taken everyone hostage. He's holding her for ransom. And no one is getting out alive unless I risk it all again. ___________ PLEASE NOTE: This book contains dark themes and sensitive subject matter that may be difficult for some readers.

So I curl into a ball, hugging my knees to my chest, sobbing, and yowling as I've never done before. Red hot blood seeps from between my thighs unto the leaves beneath me, taking my virtue along with it. A fowl reminder of the atrocious act just done to my once untouched body.
