Elspeth Hayden is living a lie.
She learned the hard way that happy endings don't exist, especially when her plan of vengeance is blown by a stranger. But, he offers her the last chance: work with his team, or face jail time.
Sebastian Eaton is the leader of an elite team of mercenaries, Serpentia. When his path collides with Elspeth, he learns they share the desire to defeat Xavier Kane and she's the only one who can help them bring him to justice once and for all.
In exchange for her intelligence, she is promised protection in form of Serpentia's Sentinel, Ryder. Ryder is arrogant. Infuriating. Emotionless. Drop dead gorgeous. Will Elspeth and Ryder put aside their differences long enough to complete their mission? Or will they risk the lives of everyone else in the team?
When secrets bubble to the surface, it will take more than a team to save her.

Locked once more(Book 2)
Addison Williams thought surviving the first lockdown would be the hardest part. She was wrong. Derek Sanchez is at war with the one enemy who knows all his moves-his father, the architect of a rising empire who will erase anyone who threatens it. Targets have already been named: Derek. Addison. His mother, Tracy. The only way to keep them breathing is to build a fortress and hunt first. New allies close ranks-Wes at Derek's side, Dani, cousin Adrian, with her wolf Faith, and the quiet wildcard, Tyler-but every added guard draws out older ghosts. Derek is ready to cut deals with devils, to disappear, to put bars around the woman he loves if that's what it takes. Addison refuses to be caged again. Safety that costs her freedom isn't safety at all. But standing beside Derek means standing in the crosshairs of his father, of the enemies he's made, and of the man who would burn the world to save her. As loyalties strain, Wes's feelings slip their leash, and a protector with blood ties to Derek steps from the past, Addison faces the questions that could break them: Will Derek find his father-or will his father find them first? Can love survive a second lockdown? And when protection starts to feel like possession, which door does the key open? LOCKED ONCE MORE is a dark, addictive continuation of Derek and Addison's story-where secrets cut deep, family is a battlefield, and love is the most dangerous gamble of all.Complete

But just days before they were to leave, he died under mysterious circumstances. Now, she's trapped in a town ruled by the Delgado Corporation, the very family he was heir to, and left with nothing but unanswered questions and a broken heart.

As they dig deeper into the tangled web of lies, deception, and corruption surrounding the Delgado family, they find themselves drawn closer to each other. The chemistry between them is undeniable, but so is the danger that lurks around every corner. Will their growing attraction distract them from their mission, or will the secrets they uncover destroy them both? In Unveiling lies, Discovering love a passion and mystery collide in a heart-pounding story of betrayal, love, and revenge. The search for truth may cost them more than they bargained for-and they'll have to decide if they're willing to risk everything for the truth... and each other.
