Destiny is what happens when dreams collide with reality.

I've made a name for myself as a world famous lingerie model. I'm rich and powerful now. Not too bad for a girl from small town Texas. All I really wanted was to become so beautiful that Luke, my teenage crush, would fall at my feet.

But thirteen years is a long time.

Long enough for this little girl to grow up and glue back together the pieces that were chipped away as a child. Plenty of time for me to figure out that love isn't made of fairy tales and high school crushes who didn't even know I existed. Maybe it's even long enough for me to realize what's staring at me through my best friend's eyes - even as I try to say we're just business partners.

Then Gran dies. Now I have to go back to that same small town that destroyed me.

I keep telling myself I've got this - right up until Luke shows up in my life again. This time, he's noticed me, but he comes with a troubled daughter that reminds me a little too much of myself. Then there's the new guy I just hired. He's the best person for the job, even if he is my best friend's ex - and looking at my crush a little too hard.

I'm supposed to be taking over Gran's business, but the rumors are flying. This town hates me. My neighbor wants to see me fail, my love life is out of control, and Luke's daughter? It looks like she's going to be the only one who ends up hurt unless something changes. What good is success if I can't use it to help anyone else?

I came home to save something.
I just had no idea it was more than just a house.


TRIGGERS MAY INCLUDE: Mentions of cancer, violence, criminal history, eating disorders, bullying, self harm, and discussions of child sexual assault and trauma.

This is a love story, but broken people deserve love too - and an ally on their side.

Collide is a 155,000 word novel with an ending that will leave you needing more. The main female character will have multiple, often complicated, relationships with different men. Includes M/M and M/F romance.

Collide is the first in a series of four books.

I never expected the man I saw as nothing but a billionaire player to be the only person who could rescue me from near insanity.

One moment, everything was perfect.

I was finally Dr. Harlow Lewis, research geoscientist, and I was actually employed at Montgomery Mining Laboratories, the crème de la crème of labs for my specialty.  I also had good friends, a supportive parent, and a budding relationship with a great guy.  Add all of those things together and it was impossible for my existence to be anything less than ideal.  

I had exactly the life I'd always wanted, until it...wasn't. 
 
I guess I never realized that brief periods of perfection could instantly be followed by a nine day, horrific hostage situation that would forever change the woman I'd been before that incident.

Oddly, after my release, the only person who knew that I was struggling to get my life back was Jaxton Montgomery, my billionaire boss, and the king of one-nighters . Not exactly the perfect confidante, right?  The two of us barely spoke unless it was company business, especially after I'd turned down a date with him two years earlier.  What rational female would want to have dinner with a man who was known for his one-and-done dating behavior?

Maybe Jax wasn't the guy I would have chosen to be the person who would drag me out of the darkness and back into life again, but he was the only one stubborn enough to do it.  He systematically broke down all of defenses until I reached out and clung to him like he was the only lifeline I had.  

It wasn't until I got to know him that I realized that Jax was so much more than the playboy he was portrayed to be in the gossip columns. 
 
He was patient, he didn't judge, and he had a wicked sense of humor.  Even stranger, he understood what I was going through, even when I didn't understand it myself.  

Unfortunately, he was also the hottest guy I'd ever met, and as our bizarre friends-but-not-really-friends relationship continued, it was getting harder and harder to fight the intense chemistry between the two of us.  

What happens when a guy you thoroughly disliked just a few months ago suddenly becomes your everything?
  
Jax had helped me claw my way back into my life, but was I brave enough to risk everything all over again to keep the one man I'd always wanted but could never have?  

Just like old times.
But way more complicated.

I’m back in my hometown after an injury in the NFL.
Simone was my high school sweetheart, but we grew apart.
I show up to her boutique’s grand opening just to be supportive.

She’s got a little girl on her hip.
A little girl with my green eyes.
Her secret’s out after four long years.

It’s hard not giving in to the fury.
I have to get along with my ex and work out visits.
We have a picnic, the three of us, so I can meet my daughter.
Sparks fly with me and Simone like old times.
Later, we can’t keep our hands off each other.

Maybe you can go home again.
If I can forgive her for keeping the baby a secret,
Maybe I can make her fall for me again.
Just like old times.

When it comes to surviving the frozen tundra, it pays to have a big protective partner.
More than one, if you can get that lucky.

The problem with being a single mother to a bear shifter cub is that paranormal creatures are pretty much all you can date.
I've been alone since before she was born, and I need to cuddle with someone to keep me warm.
So I signed up to a paranormal dating website.

All I want for Dahlia is to have someone she can look up to, someone like her.
Seems that there are two contestants up for the job…and they might be willing to work together, to share.

And here I thought the dating scene as a single mother with a human kid was complicated.

Bear Shifter Dating Agency is a standalone paranormal romance with a HEA and NO cheating!

Victorian historical romance with a paranormal bite.

She found the one...but he's already taken.

Ready for the Duke of Ashcroft's story of forbidden love and intrigue? The Duke is Wicked is #3 in the steamy Victorian paranormal romance series Publishers Weekly calls, “A superpowered twist on Victorian romance!"

An ordinary life, that’s all I wanted.
But the chemistry between us is anything but ordinary.

I’m back in my hometown after two decades in the military.
She’s the new girl working at the bar.
Next thing I know, I’m teaching her to mix drinks and making her laugh.
This energy between us is insane.
The sparks in one look could start a forest fire, I swear.

She acts like she wants to disappear.
I want to protect her from whatever she’d hiding from.
Then he comes for her, Hannah’s abusive ex.
She comes to me, soaked in the pouring rain and terrified.
I promise I’ll keep her safe.

I don’t want a boring normal life anymore.
I want Hannah, and I’ll do whatever it takes to make her mine.

The sexy, suspense-filled second installment of the Private Protectors series features a tough-as-nails security consultant, his best friend’s widowed sister, and a terrorist determined to destroy them all.

Security consultant Vic Andrews fears nothing.

Except emotional entanglements.

He lives on the edge and by his own rules. Never mess with your best friend’s sister, for one. Especially when that sister is sweet and sexy goddess Gina Delgado.

Vic is strictly a “no strings attached” kind of guy, and a young widow with three kids is guaranteed to tie his heart in all sorts of knots. Too bad other parts of his anatomy aren’t as easily deterred.

Gina is no stranger to men like Vic. Men in love with their dangerous professions. Her firefighter husband may have been a hero, but his bravery is little comfort to Gina now. She refuses to face that kind of loss ever again.

Still, a girl has needs.

And Vic, with his military-hardened body and tender touch, is just the thing she needs to fulfill them. As long as they can keep things casual.

But getting involved with Vic puts Gina at the risk of more than heartbreak. When Vic becomes the target of a terrorist seeking revenge, no one around him is safe. With Gina and her family in a madman’s sights, Vic will break all the rules to keep her close…and keep them all alive.
