Dimitri: The Italian Cartel is now AVAILABLE!
Explosively Hot Brand New Italian Cartel Romance
Famiglia prima di tutto. Family first of all. That’s the motto the Petrettis lived by when New York was governed by the Italian Cartel, and our name was worth something.
Now, it’s disrespected.
Now, it’s tainted with hate.
I had plans to alter that, but the game changed when my pregnant wife was kidnapped by a rival. Her body was never found, and I’ve paid to guarantee our daughter’s safety ever since.
During the day, I’m a businessman in a tailored suit. At night, I’m an avenger who’ll do whatever it takes to get his daughter back. My father may have forgotten the morals our ancestors ruled with, however, I cannot. My daughter is the princess of the Italian Cartel, and she will be protected accordingly.
I just need to get a pesky redhead with gleaming green eyes out of my head first. Her entrance into my life could ruin everything, including her very existence.

Enigma: The Wedding is LIVE!
Enigma: The Wedding
My reputation was fierce, a force not to be reckoned with. To my competitors, I was a ruthless, coldhearted man whose devotion only ever centered around his empire.
Then she unmasked me by forcing a bar into the cogs that would have seen me spiraling out of control.
When Isabelle Brahn fell at my feet, I knew in an instant my life would never be the same. With an ability to see through the shield others couldn’t, she taught me that my greatest accomplishments weren’t measured by my power or wealth, but by the man beneath the enigmatic mask.
But with change comes challenges.
I fought to get where I am—I fought for her—so when secrets and betrayals threaten the very things I want the most, you can be assured I’ll fight to the death to keep them.
Enigma: The Wedding is the final installment between the tumultuous relationship of Isaac Holt and Isabelle Brahn. It’s a story about unifying as one through rawness, honesty, and hot, kindle melting scenes that will unravel more than the enigma you’ve grown to know and love. It is not intended to be read as a standalone.

Our families were friends long before they became bitter rivals, but as the decade long hatred grew, so did the bloodshed. Things are different now, though; my father is a changed man. He’s had enough of the violence and wants to spend his final years in peace.
In the midst of an epiphany, he gifted me to an enemy. I am to do anything to make him happy, to reforge the tight union our families once had, and to ensure it will be impossible to break.
There’s just one issue. . . he gave my hand in marriage to a man hell-bent on seeking revenge, and my name is at the very top of his hit list.
I am Zariah Volkov, and my husband-to-be wants to kill me.

Presley “Elvis” Carlton was at the top of his game. Number one draft pick, engaged to an up-and-coming model, and voted best player of the decade his first year on the field.
Things were golden. . . until an accident saw everything important torn from his grasp.
He’s determined to get his life back, and with a strict regime, and no time for a life outside of the game, the last thing he wants is the attention of a curvy college student whose only motto in life is to not take it too seriously.
Can an Australian expat show the struggling sports star there’s more to life than the next win? Or has Willow Underwood chewed off a chunk of man meat too thick for her to swallow?
Just Playin’ is a standalone sports romance RomCom that will give you all the feels. It has sexy scenes and several laugh-out-loud moments.

Seven years in heaven awarded me seven years in hell.
I’ve admired Savannah Fontane since I saw her whizzing down our street on her hot pink bike with rainbow tassels taped on the handlebars. I was in awe someone so small could ride without training wheels, I asked my mom to remove mine that same afternoon.
Savannah drew a rainbow heart on my cast the very next day.
From then, we were inseparable. I thought Savannah would heal the cracks my parent’s volatile relationship caused to my heart. Only now am I realizing she may fracture it beyond repair.
Author warning: this book has domestic violence situations that may be distressing to some readers. Due to content, it is only recommended to those over the age of eighteen years.

Spy Thy Neighbor - released.

Apple: https://itun.es/au/JZFvkb.l
Kobo: bit.ly/2spFcbn
I flew across the country with one goal on my mind.... finish my book.... and maybe lick the wounds of my shredded heart.
My editor was screaming for the first draft, my agent was nagging for teasers, and my publisher was reminding me that my strict deadline was only months away. However, there was a dilemma. I had writer's block. Not just a little spanner thrown into the works writer's block. Writers. Block. As in staring at the blinking light on my Mac monitor begging for a stream of words to magically appear.
This was not my first rodeo, though. I am a well known and respected author. I just can't write about romance, flowers, and butterfly kisses when all I want to pen is my own rendition of Basic Instinct. Ice picks to the heart, forks in eyes, and knees slammed into assholes crotches are not solid key pointers for a sweet romance novel.
Just as I was about to throw down the gauntlet and call in my defeat, I spotted him. The bearded, tattooed man who lives in the glasshouse next door. He was in a venereal, lust filled twist with a pretty blonde who had buxom bosoms and legs that went for miles. I should have looked away. I should have respected his privacy. I should not have opened my notepad and took detailed dot points on his technique. However, every precise thrust of his hips, snippets of his well-carved physique, and droplets of sweat running down his glistening torso had words flowing quicker than I was able to write them. He was my inspiration, my muse, my next book alpha male.
My plan was working. The words were flowing, and they were magnificent, by far my best work to date. My editor was in love with the first half of my draft, my agent was using snippets of the first two chapters to secure big endorsement deals, and my publicist was talking about a new three book deal.
Everything was perfect.... until the bearded stranger spotted me spying on him.
Adult content, sexual references, recommended for 18+ readers. Can be read as a standalone.

BLURB:
What happens when the only girl you’ve ever lusted over comes crashing back into the picture?
Nothing.
Don’t construe my lack of interest the wrong way. The last time I saw Ava, she was no doubt attractive. Although she’s always been a little nerdy, and her head never left the inside of a book during her entire schooling experience, she could garner the attention of any hot-blooded male she feigned an interest in – myself included. Just one flash of her killer smile and I wanted to drop to my knees and kiss her f*cking feet. But a lot has changed since Ava left town six years ago with a flood of tears streaming down her face. Circumstances change. People change. I’ve changed. I’m no longer a teenage boy who can’t control his cock around a beautiful girl. I am a grown man. A man that has done two tours in Afghanistan. A man that has no troubles controlling his cock. A man that can still remember the sweet taste of her lips.
What the f*ck? I'm screwed.
From the Author that brought you the 'Enigma' series comes the next installment. An emotional story about being reacquainted with your high school crush. Does time really alter your interests? Or is using your age just an excuse to downplay real love?
Let's find out - it's time to dive beneath the sheets!
