The moment he swept her into his arms, he vowed to protect her forever.

Lorenzo Moretti. The son of a mafia soldier. Sophie Messina. The woman whose worth is measured by the value of her impending marriage.

Growing up in the Chicago Mafia, Lorenzo’s life has always been filled with violence. Enter Dante Damiani, the mafia heir and childhood best friend whom he thought was dead. Dante is ready to take back his father’s stolen mafia empire by any means necessary, Lorenzo by his side. There isn’t anything much Lorenzo wouldn’t do. Except there is…he won’t leave an innocent woman to die in the streets. But what Lorenzo doesn’t count on are the feelings he develops for the woman he saved.

Sophie has spent her life obeying her father, knowing she’s just a pawn in the sick and twisted games the Chicago Mafia play. Then comes the worst day of her life—or so she thinks. When she wakes up, she realizes her fate is in the hands of none other than Lorenzo Moretti, the most ruthless member of the Chicago Mafia.

But as Sophie recovers and her feelings deepen, she’s not sure how long their love can stay hidden before everything comes crumbling down.

A one-night stand. That’s all it was supposed to be. Then, her world is turned upside down.

Madison “Mads” Hawkins. A woman who believes she doesn’t need a bodyguard. Isaac “Ike” Harrison. The elite bodyguard who Madison defies at every turn.

When Mad’s father insists she needs a bodyguard, she vehemently disagrees. Having an annoying shadow of a bodyguard will only mess up her carefully curated life.

But can their love survive the perils of the danger that follows Mads everywhere she goes?

The best day of my life was when I patched into the Desert Aces MC. And that day is only rivaled by the day I fucked up and couldn’t stop a brother from betraying us all. Ever since that fateful day, I’ve been trying like hell to prove myself to my club.

Jamie

I patched into the Desert Aces MC when I didn’t have many options left. They accepted me and gave me a place to belong. So when Prez asked me to protect his sister Kat from her crazy ex-boyfriend, I willingly agreed. All in an effort to prove that I can be redeemed in the eyes of the club. But little did I know, protecting Kat would be my greatest challenge. Why? Because Prez never mentioned how much of a spitfire she is. I just laughed, sticking to her like glue, much to Kat’s chagrin. Little by little, I got past her defenses, then the heat between us became scorching hot in a hurry. And just when I thought I had things figured out, my world came crashing down. I can’t fuck this up. If I do, I’ll lose everything. It’s ride or die.

I wasn’t always the Desert Aces MC President.

Jax

When I was 20 years old, tragedy struck when my parents were killed by a drunk driver.

Back then, I was young and stupid, and decided to prospect for the Desert Aces MC in Las Vegas. At the time, I didn’t care about its lawlessness. I liked the drinking, the fighting, the fucking. It helped to numb the pain. But as time went on, I began to realize the club was on a dangerous path to destruction. And that if we didn’t clean up our act, the club wouldn’t survive. I’d given everything to the club and I wasn’t about to let that happen.

Now Prez of the club, it was time to take a little something back for himself. I needed to find a woman and settle down. My mind drifts to Diana, all those years ago. I regret letting her walk away. But that all changes when one afternoon, she drives up to the compound gates, looking gorgeous as ever. Instantly, my feelings for her re-surface, igniting inside me. This time, I won’t let her walk away. I’m going to make her mine. Even if another club stands in the way.

If I could go back, I wouldn’t change a thing.

Mac

My pretentious family hates what I’ve done with my life. But I give zero fucks. When I was 18, I was young and reckless and needed a place to belong. I found that place in Las Vegas, with the Desert Aces MC. When I needed acceptance, they gave it. If I could go back, I wouldn’t change a thing. Years later, I’m now VP and it’s my job to keep everything running smoothly. And I’m damn good at it. But that all changes the day Sienna is dropped into my life without a moment’s notice, in need of protection. Sent to us by her father, the Prez of the Desert Aces in Los Angeles, Sienna is nothing but a pain in my arse. She’s sassy and defies me at every turn. I told myself that I shouldn’t want her, but that’s a problem because I love the chase and Sienna is a sexy siren luring me in.

Landing a job at Pryce Enterprises is like winning the lottery. Everybody tries, but there’s only one winner.

Gabrielle Hernandez was just hired as the executive assistant to Ethan Pryce. Yes, that Pryce. The man who owns the whole company. People say he’s cold, shrewd, aloof. During her interview, Gabi didn’t get that vibe at all. Shrewd and aloof maybe, but not cold. All she knows is that he likes to be in control. But he doesn’t intimidate her. She’s a strong, independent woman. And she plans to stay that way. At least that was the plan.

Ethan Pryce, CEO of Pryce Enterprises, is looking to hire a new executive assistant. Enter Gabrielle Hernandez. As he works side by side with Gabi, he gets to know her and decides she’s the perfect fit, both in and out of the boardroom. But she’s off-limits. Ethan knows that Gabi is what’s been missing from his life. But is he willing to risk everything? And does Gabi feel the same way?

Thanks to a combat wound sustained while serving overseas, he’s no longer an Army Ranger.

Derek Pryce has been career military for so long, he doesn’t even know how to live his life as a civilian. But thanks to his brother Ethan, he doesn’t have to worry about money. Now a billionaire, he does what any military veteran would do—he seeks out the best physical therapist in the city to help him with his recovery. As soon as Dr. Daisy Roberts calls his name, he immediately knows she’s going to push him to the brink. As he fights through the pain, he instead focuses on Daisy. But he shouldn’t fall for his doctor, right? But the more time he spends with her, the more he can’t deny his feelings, as she makes him feel and want things that he’s never wanted before. But she’s his doctor and totally off-limits.

Daisy Roberts is the best physical therapist in the city. She’s made a good life for herself. All that’s missing is someone to share her life with. Then he walks in. She recognizes Derek Pryce instantly; he looks just like his brother Ethan. But his net worth doesn’t interest her. Helping patients heal, that’s what drives her. As she works to heal Derek’s leg, he doesn’t hide his attraction to her. But she can’t date a patient; it’s against clinic policy. But the more time she spends with Derek in a professional capacity, the more she desires him. But he’s a man with plenty of demons. Can they overcome the barriers, both real and imagined, to find their happily ever after?

Fate has a little something in store for her, and it comes when she least expects it.

Abbie Marsh has lived in Foxtail Ridge, a small town in the Rocky Mountains, her entire life. She absolutely loves everything about it. Okay, almost everything. The one thing she doesn’t love? The dating scene—it’s almost non-existent. But she’s not worried, because she’s not looking for love. Between helping her sister Kelsie with her bed & breakfast, playing Cupid, and wrangling a grumpy author, she has her hands full. But little does she know that Matt Ellis, the grumpy author, is going to take a sledgehammer to the walls she’s built around her heart. But will Abbie let her guard down long enough to fall in love with Matt?

All I Ever Needed is the snarky and swoony second book in the All I Ever / Foxtail Ridge Duet.

But she’s not worried, because she’s not looking for love. Between helping her sister Kelsie with her bed & breakfast, playing Cupid, and wrangling a grumpy author, she has her hands full. But little does she know that Matt Ellis, the grumpy author, is going to take a sledgehammer to the walls she’s built around her heart. But will Abbie let her guard down long enough to fall in love with Matt?

All I Ever Needed is the snarky and swoony second book in the All I Ever / Foxtail Ridge Duet.

Author note: Reading All I Ever Wanted (Book 1) is recommended. But it’s not required to fully enjoy All I Ever Needed (Book 2). All I Ever Needed can be read as a stand-alone.

Treat yourself to a steamy Halloween romance between a banker who’s just moved back to town and the sexy owner of the local brewery.

Ariana

I moved back to my hometown and the first thing my sister does is drag me to a Halloween party. I agree to go, because I have nothing better to do. We’re waiting in line for our beers, when I spot an attractive man in the crowd. Our paths crossed later that night and sparks flew between us. Turns out, he’s the owner of the brewery. I didn’t know it at the time, though. He gave me his number, so I decide to take a chance. And I’m rewarded with the best treat of them all…

Gage

I’m partaking in some of the Halloween games at my brewery, when a gorgeous woman wearing a sexy as sin dress runs into me. Literally. She looks like she got her bell rung, so I take her back to my office to make sure she’s okay. And in the process, we set the place ablaze. After our night together, I can’t stop thinking about her. I might need a trick or two to make this treat a reality.

Everything in my life came crashing down all at once. It was the worst day of my life.

First, I got cut from the team. Then, my wife tells me she wants a divorce. My world imploded in the blink of an eye.

I, Gabe Goldwyn, now understood that life as I knew it, was over. Done. Finished. Or so I thought.

Fast-forward one year. I’m fresh off a divorce and exploring a different side of my career in the major leagues of baseball. I’m now the manager of the Blue Valley Vipers. My life’s back on track and I’ve gotten used to being single again. But a chance encounter and a one-night stand changes everything. Falling in love was the last thing on my mind.

Layla and I weren’t looking for anything more. But what the heart wants, the heart wants.

We were left to figure out how to make things work. I hope our long-distance relationship can survive being thousands of miles apart on a regular basis. I’m willing to fight for us. I just hope she feels the same.

Sweet Spot is a spicy, later in life, baseball romance. If you love baseball romance, this book is for you.
