This unique, sexy, and thrilling novel series is perfect for fans of Jennifer L. Armentrout, Katie McGarry, and Jay Crownover.
A heart that’s on the mend. A serial killer on the loose. A death that must be avenged.
Bryn Everly hasn’t really been living since her father Jack, the Chief of Police, died while trying to catch a serial killer. She’s merely been going through life’s motions. Living in the small, wine country town of Crystal Creek, Bryn buries her sadness by focusing on her work at the Crystal Creek Winery. Up until now, it’s been cruise control. That is, until handsome co-worker Julian and rich bad boy, Hudson each show signs that they’re interested in her, threatening Bryn to do something she hasn’t done in almost two years – feel.
When dead bodies begin to pile up again, killed in the same fashion as the case her father was working when he died, Bryn feels like she can’t just sit by and possibly become a victim. Bryn decides that the only ways she can make sure her father didn’t die in vain, is to solve the murders herself.
A twisted web of lies, deceit, and romance, PULSE is sure to get the blood flowing!

Roommates with Benefits [COMPLETED]
*Check out the audiobook on Youtube* Emma has sworn never to fall in love, but when circumstances force her to move in with her brother's best friend there are definite sparks. Like when he accidentally picks up her vibrator... Or when she walks in on him naked in the shower... Maybe... maybe they should just do it once... to get it out of their systems. Knightley has been her brother's best friend for as long as she can remember. And now they're all at the same university. It's not until she moves into his apartment that she notices just how grown-up he's become. He's no longer the scrawny boy she never paid attention to. Ripped and handsome, he's no stranger to taking women home. But he never lets them stay the night. Knightley never expected this. Somehow, he's ended up living with his best friend's little sister. And she has turned hot as hell. He does not need the image of her with a vibrator taking up space in his head. She is off limits. Of course she is. No matter what kind of feelings he has for her. This is a brother's best friend, roommates-to-lovers with a secret relationship and steamy benefits. (❤️18+ recommended❤️) It's unedited, so there might be mistakes throughout. Thanks for your understanding! Book 2 in the Benefits series. This is a standalone, but it follows Pride and Hate with Benefits. (Both are inspired by Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice and Emma.)

Reader discretion advised. EXCERPT: As he leaned over with his arms folded, resting on the table, I took a second to admire the way his slightly messy hair fell in front of his face and the back of his black jeans hugged his ass. He glanced up at me, knowing I'd been staring at him, and I felt my face heat up. "I'm going to give you fifteen minutes to grab a bag with some spare clothing, your toothbrush, and whatever necessities. Then we're leaving," Joey ordered. He walked back into the living room and plopped down on the couch, tapping his foot impatiently. "If I go with you-" "When you go with me," he corrected. "You will not take your phone or computer because they can be tracked. And now you have fourteen minutes."Completa

Trying to move on her best friend sets her up with her husband's best friend and he is such an upgrade it feels too good to be true.

In Spite of Love is my first book that I at least see to be a two book part series.

Expect love, passion, real life like danger, suspense and some explicit scenes that is meant for those 18+. All of the people in this book are not based off of anyone in real life but all a part of my imagination and story.
