Jessica has been given a career-killing assignment: no-one has ever written a worthwhile piece on the secretive Benart family, but she has six weeks to do so. Fortunately, Robert Morel, a senior executive for Benart Industries, takes pity on her and agrees to introduce her to the family. But soon, it's not just his connections she desires - his smouldering good looks and warm smile make her stomach dance. Jessica struggles to keep the relationship professional until her assignment is over - and fails.
In 700 years, Lucien Benart has given his heart to a mortal woman twice, and suffered for it each time. On top of that, mixing with mortals is now forbidden. But when a nosy reporter mistakes him for his cousin, he can't stop himself from responding to her heartfelt plea for help. Now, he must juggle not only his family's need for secrecy with helping Jessica write a story that will save her career, but his heart's desire with his past's warning.
What Jessica doesn't see is how ancient the Benart Family truly is.
What she doesn't see is how her connection to them has drawn the attention of their most dangerous foe.
What she doesn't see, until too late, is the enemy who stalks her every movement.

Too Much To Hide || EDITING
"That means you're coming with me too then." He groans, bringing a hand up to his forehead and rubbing it in exasperation. "Excuse me?" My chest puffs up indignantly. "I don't think me or this baby will be going anywhere with you." "Ever since he was born, he and the mother have been in danger." He snarls as he comes up to my face. "And now that you've found him, your life is in equal danger." I blanch. Shaking my head, I slap down my impending terror. "Your point?" The foreboding man leans forward and switches his gaze between me and the slumbering child in my arms. "My point,"-he licks his lips-"is that I'm the only chance you have at surviving." ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Having his wife run away with his unborn son sets Adrian Raines off on a mission to find them.

As the Crow Falls | ✔
Niccola is a demi-queen undercover in enemy territory. Her little sister went missing seven moons ago, but one lead remains: a picture of a woman's face, drawn by a diviner shortly after the disappearance. Tracking her down has led Niccola to Calis, the realm next door whose border with her own remains closed for a reason. There, the trail goes cold. Until, that is, Niccola runs into a man in the marketplace who bears a family resemblance to the woman she seeks. His name is Isaiah, crown prince of Calis, and he's investigating disappearances, too. They join forces, faking courtship to sneak Niccola into the palace and get Isaiah's wedding-minded mother off his back. It doesn't take long to suspect that a common threat might underpin both their realms' problems. And as Niccola begins to develop real feelings for Isaiah, she's faced with an impossible choice: reveal her secrets and risk breaking his trust, or leave him in order to chase down the woman who stole her sister... a woman whose forbidden magic comes with a cost that could bring both realms to ruin. ❖❖❖ Complete and fully edited.
