In the aftermath of war and destruction, Elira is on the run with Evric, a brooding knight whose presence is both a comfort and a mystery. With every step, Elira finds herself torn between the trust she places in him and the unsettling secrets he keeps buried deep within.

As the tension between them grows, Elira is forced to confront her growing feelings for the man who has both protected her and kept her at arm's length. In the end, survival isn't just about escaping the past; it's about deciding who she can trust when the truth comes crashing down. As they draw closer to the heart of the enemy's territory, Elira must choose whether to follow the path he's set before her or risk everything to uncover the truth that threatens them both.

Dangerous Lies
Eliora has always been the protector-the one who looks after her baby brother, Cassian, after their mother's death when she was just thirteen. With their father's life lost to alcoholism, Eliora is all Cassian has left, and she's determined to make sure they survive together. They don't need anyone else. But when a dangerous gang targets Eliora, she finds herself caught in a web of secrets, lies, and danger. It starts with a mysterious stranger who steps in to protect her from a gang member's advances. At first, she's skeptical, but something about him draws her in. The two grow closer, and though her instincts scream at her to stay away, Eliora can't ignore the bond they share. As her feelings for him deepen, Eliora is torn between her gut-telling her to trust no one-and the intense connection they've formed. She's falling for him, but something doesn't add up. And when secrets begin to unravel, she's faced with the harsh reality that the person she's grown to trust might not be who she thought he was.Completa

As the royal family intensifies its search, Elara must decide whether to stay hidden in the shadows or rise up with these newfound allies to reclaim her life and bring justice to those who destroyed her family.

Chattan Bride
READERS' FAVORITE FIVE STAR AWARD WINNER - As the daughter of a strong English baron, Isabel is compelled by peace negotiations to become the child-bride of the enemy, the powerful, handsome and fierce Scottish Laird of the Chattan clan, Alysandir. Her youth and his distaste for a marriage alliance with his enemy render her strenuous efforts to win the approval of her husband almost futile. Even though she failed him in a hopelessly complex situation, why would he allow his former fiancé to get away at an attempt to kill her? When her dying father calls her home to England, she is forced to be braver than her years as her exiled, murderous half-brother, Gilbert, attempts to wrest control of Bamborough Castle, their family home, from her father, who was determined to never allow Gilbert the inheritance. Could Alysandir, her wizened warrior husband soften her battle-hardened heart, protect her from her treacherous half-brother and win back her love? Growing up amid the border wars taught Isabel to be strong, cautious and adaptable. Fighting in those wars made Alysandir inflexible, distrustful but patient and brave. Could he secure his lands and keep his new bride safe from those who wished to harm her, or even protect her from herself? After breaking her, could he gather her back to himself and teach her to trust him before her half-brother and brother-in-law kill her over a piece of borderland?Completa
