She's 24, bold, too curious for her own good.
He's 44, her boss - quiet, controlled, all sharp edges and worn leather.
When Anna takes a new job as assistant to the Sheriff in a small Montana town, she doesn't expect the man behind the badge to rattle her entire sense of self. Beau Arlen is everything she shouldn't want - older, guarded, and way too good at pretending he doesn't notice her fire.
But between late-night shifts, unspoken glances, and accidental touches that linger too long, something starts to burn. And neither of them knows how to put it out.
This is not a fairytale.
This is two broken people trying not to fall.
But some lines were made to be crossed.

Fiery Chains , Dark Shadows MC (Book 2)
Chloe has always believed that she can only rely on herself, especially when everyone else always leaves. Relationships mean letting someone in and she's not willing to open herself up to that kind of pain, not without some kind of proof that it will last. When the Dark Shadows MC offers her protection from the danger stalking her, Chloe finds herself stuck with the gruff Road Captain, Hawk. He's silent, rude, uncompromising, and she's positive that he can't stand her...but Chloe also can't deny the way her heart races when he sets his steely gaze on her. Hawk learned early not to trust those who were supposed to care for him, finding solace and family among the brothers of the MC who saved him when he was a teen. Watching over Chloe is just supposed to be another way to repay that debt to the club, or so he keeps telling himself. But as the danger surrounding Chloe escalates and the lines blur between them, Hawk faces a choice between remaining guarded and alone, or letting Chloe in. In a world where trust is a rare commodity and danger lurks in every shadow, Chloe and Hawk must confront their deepest fears and decide if love is worth the risk.

The Grocery Store Encounter
It started with a grocery store encounter-one of those small, embarrassing moments that somehow changes everything. She wasn't looking for love. He wasn't supposed to notice her. But when Pedro, a charming actor with a quiet kind of gravity, crosses her path, something unexpected sparks. What begins as a coincidence turns into stolen moments, laughter, and nights that feel too good to be real. He's patient, attentive, the kind of man who listens when she talks and holds her like he means it. And she, for the first time in years, lets herself believe that happiness might actually be simple. But love always asks for something in return. And some connections cost more than anyone could ever imagine. A slow-burn romance that explores desire, trust, and what it means to surrender to something that feels written in the stars.
