A Country Thug's Lovin'
Yara Love is everything her parents ever dreamed of-successful, driven, and brilliant in the courtroom. As one of the youngest partners at her prestigious Dallas law firm, she's spent her life chasing excellence and ignoring the ache that comes from loneliness, control, and the aftermath of a love that nearly broke her. Her mother says she's too focused on her career. Her friends say she's scared of intimacy. Yara just says she's fine. Then a weekend trip to rural Texas changes everything. Sevion Taylor is a man of quiet power. Raised in the shadows of the streets, he's since built a life of solitude on his sprawling ranch-horses, dirt roads, and a silence he wears like armor. But behind his peaceful exterior is a dangerous past and a loss that still haunts him. He doesn't look for love, and he damn sure doesn't trust it. But when Yara walks into his world, she stirs something in him he thought he'd buried. What begins as stolen glances and late-night conversations becomes something deeper-slow-burning, raw, and real. As they learn each other through farm chores, city visits, secrets, and scars, Yara and Sevion must decide if love is strong enough to hold two people pulled in opposite directions. When old wounds surface and the noise of the world creeps back in-through ghosts from his past and demands from hers-they'll both have to ask the same question: Can a love born between two worlds survive when both are being pulled apart?Complete
To Kill A Warlock, An Urban Fantasy Romance
I'm a Regulator-a law-enforcement agent who monitors the creatures of the Netherworld to keep them from wreaking havoc in the mortal world. When a dark-arts warlock is murdered and I was the last person to see him alive, I've got two choices. Either figure out whodunnit before I'm deported back to the Netherworld, or before I become the next victim. So, yeah, it's really more like I've got one choice. Enter Knight Vander, a cocky investigator sent from the Netherworld to work the case with me. Knight is what's called a Loki and he's the first of his kind I've ever come across. He was created by Hades, in Hades' own image and can I just say that Hades must have been pretty hot... Yeah, Knight is the sexiest guy I've ever seen but he's also bossy, demanding, and way too convinced of his own self-importance. As the body count increases, I find myself having to keep a sadistic demon in check all the while fending off the advances of a super powerful vampire, Bram. And dealing with Knight isn't exactly a walk in the park. Sometimes working law enforcement for the Netherworld is a real...Complete
The Night Reporter ✔
Zeke, a reporter with schizo-affective paranoia, gets caught up in a vamp-motivated murder. Zeke's best work is drafted during "medicinal vacations," where he uses his condition to aid his writing process, short term memory be damned. However, the latest "vacation" dubs him a P.O.I. in the murder investigation of Carter (his rival colleague), and he's unsure if his intimacy with her was hallucination or reality. His there-again, gone-again friend August isn't much help, either. Zeke wonders why police don't follow the vamp-attack angle, considering Carter's wounds. The politically-correct vamp culture has rendered him unsympathetic. As the evidence mounts against him, Zeke struggles to use his journalistic skills in an effort to save himself. He discovers everyone else's secrets, including those of his parents and cousin Raffi, somehow intertwine with the investigation. Slowly, Zeke becomes his own worst enemy. *2018 Wattys Short List* *2024 On the Wattpad Action reading list! *On the Wattpad Stars "Star-Powered Thrillers" list!* *On the AntiHeroes Galore "Method in Madness" list!*Complete
