"My most brilliant achievement was my ability to be able to persuade my wife to marry me." — Winston Churchill

Jack Mathers has reached his most brilliant achievement. Tatum Sterling has agreed to become his wife. But as the two inch closer to the altar the obstacles keep coming.

Tatum’s friend and mentor, British movie star Malcolm Howard is being framed for the murder of a billionaire businessman. Using his legal skills, Jack rushes to his defense but as they uncover the plot behind the frame, Tatum is drawn to the demon realm to face her greatest enemy—her father, Rowan Sterling.

With Malcolm’s freedom in the balance can they overcome her father’s plans and still make it to the wedding on time?

Anchored is the third installment in the Sterling Chains series and contains adventure, magic, love, foul language and explicit on-page romantic encounters. It completes the Jack and Tatum trilogy although more adventures with these characters and others from the series are planned.

269 pages, Kindle Edition

I've lived a diverse life, and I have no regrets.
From working in NYC theater doing wardrobe and dressing a variety of celebrities to working in a medical laboratory in Portland Oregon it's all been part of my journey.
Originally from Missouri, my Midwestern roots have also been an influence but for the past decade-plus five, the Pacific NW has been my home and I love it.
I began my publication journey with fantasy romance in The Ring of Souls and also have found a passion for paranormal romance in Unchained and my Sterling Chains series which combines my love of contemporary romance with my infatuation with all things magical.

It's almost time, the wedding we have all been waiting for, Tatum and Jack will be joining as one unit. Husband and wife, till death do them part, and so on. Those words take on new meaning in this last book of the trilogy.

Be ready for a rollercoaster ride. It's emotional, it's nerve racking, and it WILL cause you to hold your breath. Malcolm has been through so much, how much more can he take? I don't know, but he's a real boy scout and has the sweetest, most tender heart. I hope someday he finds his HEA.

I loved every minute of this one, tho some moments, my love was for the characters, not what was happening. Jack continues to come into his own and Tatum is amazing.

There is a little look into book 4, Treasured.... oh boy... all I'm going to say!

Deliciously different! Not your run of the mill romance!

The dynamic between characters Jack and Tatum just keeps getting better! I love that Vee R. Paxton didn’t stop their story after their initial HEA. Just like every new relationship they’re in love and now the REAL work begins as Jack and Tatum have to crawl through the trenches to keep what they have. Add in my favorite character Malcolm and this story (sorry, no spoilers) is irresistible! Buckle up and enjoy this wild ride!

Anchored is book 3 of the Sterling Chains Series. Tatum and Jack’s story continues, and they are faced with even more trials and tribulations. The chemistry between is even more palatable. I love their dynamic. This book like the first 2 is action-packed! Malcolm is becoming a fan favorite fast. I'm super excited to see what happens next!

As always be mindful of any trigger warnings, what I like you may not.

Happy Reading!

Fuck! This series really does keep on getting better and better. It's bloody mind blowing. It has had a hold of me from the start and won't let go.

This book I did not put it down, just kept turning they pages. It's a emotional rollercoaster ride, with twists and turns, mystery filled and action packed.

Characters, storyline, plot just everything was amazing. I freaking love it all. I can't wait to read the final part. Highly recommend.

This series just gets better and better!
The story is funny, full of action, the plot is ever changing, with little trickles of mysteries being solved, while new ones emerge.
I do so hope Malcolm gets his wishes fulfilled at some point. Don’t know what I’m talking about? Read the series, you won’t regret it 🥰🥰

Talk about a unique and utter PERFECTION!!! The details were amazing. The character development was probably my first or second favorite, the romance filling up the other spot for top dog 😂 Tatum and Jack are so amazing 😭 I'm so happy I got to read them, I can't wait to read more!!!


I already miss Malcom 😂

Tatum and Jack's story is wonderful. They have grown so much through-out the story. The spice level in the story keeps getting better with each book. I'm really loving this Demon and Devil's spicy books.

I enjoyed this book. As Jack and Tatum’s story continues, they face more twists and turns along the way. I loved seeing the main characters continue to grow into their own, seeing more of their powers and Jack’s job. I literally cannot stand ROWAN!! After that ending, I can’t wait to see what happens in the next book.
