This story is about looking love in the eye, and death in the heart. Beyond the mask of a trained assassin, one's view of the world twists itself in intangible ways. Drunk on sip after sip of a smooth, hard whiskey laced with the hard high of a blinding love; holding the weight of one's crumbling world.
For some poor, unfortunate souls, the first taste of love becomes the last taste of blood.
Warnings: (spoiler alerts)
- MCD (major character death)

I'm obsessed with every little thing about her. The way she saunters around like the entire world belongs to her... and let's be honest-it does.

Once in a Lifetime {BxB English}
They say you only fall in love once. For Ody and Mano, that once changed everything. In a world where love isn't always safe, and pain comes hand-in-hand with desire, two straight boys find each other in the middle of grief, trauma, and secrets that refuse to stay buried. Mano doesn't do vulnerability. Aggressive, tattooed, cold, and impossible to like, he plays the villain on purpose, because being hated is safer than being seen... and losing someone again would destroy him. Ody can't help but care. Bright, extroverted, charming and painfully sincere, he's the kind of boy who notices when you're hurting, even when you pretend you're not. He remembers your birthday, offers you the last slice, and apologizes even when it's not his fault. When their lives collide, nothing about them makes sense, except the way they keep gravitating toward each other. Sparks fly, but so do secrets, buried trauma, and a love neither of them is ready for. One of them hides behind silence. The other hides behind smiles. Together, they're wildfire. But not all fires survive the storm. The forbidden love between a broken boy and a lost one. A bond that refuses to break, even as the world tries to tear them apart. 🖤COMPLETED🖤 !

The Split
An ex-soldier meets a girl who briefly brings light into his dark and dreary world before she is tragically taken from him in a violent conflict. Shocked, in his grief the man pleads for her life and unknowingly makes a deal with a powerful Entity. His perspective immediately becomes split, as the story begins to shift between the perspectives of two different versions of the main character; one version of him living out the outcome of a different series of events where his girl had lived, the other paying the price for her salvation and is taken into the service of the Being that brought it, and summoned into its strange Green Halls. ***ALL FEEDBACK WELCOME*** (This is a work in progress and is currently being edited by my agent.

Adored by a Hitman (Hitman Series Pt. 3)
Third book in the Hitman series! It can be read as a standalone but highly suggest reading the others in order to understand the characters a bit better! Fall for some romance. Single dad, widow, ex-SEAL, all things I didn't want to be seen as through the eyes of someone i care about. Keeping it all to myself was my biggest mistake. When my wife died I honestly didn't think love again was ever going to be in the cards for me unless you counted my amazing son. I relied on one night stands to get me through, and drinks, lots of drinks. Running into Logan shook me to my core. Single, nurse, has two best friends, likes cooking. Yep that's basically the extent of my dating profile. I swore off men after being screwed over by my ex fiance. Who would have thought till death do us part meant nothing. We didn't even make it down the isle when I was in a major car accident. So, when I turned and saw Casey in the bar, my mind went blank and I started to sweat...a lot. That man stole my heart without even saying a word. What the hell am I going to do?Complete
