Katie Middleton knows what it’s like to stare death in the face. Growing up with a serious heart defect stopped her from really living. Escaping her overprotective parents and opening a bakery in Aspen Cove, Katie starts crossing items off her bucket list as quickly as she can. The one item that she’s not sure she’ll ever check off, however, is falling in love. That is until Bowie Bishop appears.

When a car accident took his high school sweetheart, Bowie was sure he’d never love again. He disappeared from Aspen Cove to join the Army, then spent nearly ten years on active duty risking his life to save others. Now he finds himself in the last place he wants to be—back home. He’s determined to take off as soon as he can, but when a cute, sassy little blonde catches his eye, he’s not so sure he’ll be able to leave Aspen Cove.

Just when Katie knows for sure that her heart will only ever beat for Bowie, she discovers a secret from her past that will shake the foundation of their new relationship to its core. Will the truth tear them apart or will they find salvation in each other’s arms?

Five years ago I left Cabot Beach with a broken heart, but I didn't leave without telling the guy who broke it how much it hurt.

All of my emotion and angst was written in a letter that ended with Hatefully Yours.
Five years later, the guy I never thought I would see again is my new boss.
He doesn't want to put things in the past or move on.
He wants to destroy me.
Guess what? I feel the same way.

The battle lines are drawn and neither of us intends to play fair.

But there are things I never knew about what happened in Cabot Beach the night my life took an unexpected turn, and finding out the truth may be more painful than losing him to begin with.

DEADLY LIES: A COMPLETE TRILOGY:
Broken Waves
Lives Undone
Lesser Crimes

When a modern princess falls in love with her bodyguard, a man who is definitely not a prince, a royal fairy tale turns dangerous.

ONCE UPON A TIME, there was a beautiful princess. Flicka von Hannover lived an enchanted life. She jetted around Europe staging charity events with friends, had married a handsome prince in the most spectacular royal wedding of the 21st century, and should have lived happily ever after.

But then she found the handsome prince in bed with a duchess. And then a coffee shop barista. And then her own goddamn secretary.

Finally, the beautiful princess had had enough of the cheating prince, and she ran away.

The prince didn’t want to let her go. He couldn’t take his throne without her and sent henchmen to take her back to the castle. Her worried royal brother sent people to look for her, too.

The prince threatened her. He said that if the princess contacted her brother or any of her friends for help, he would kill her brother and her brother’s new, pregnant wife.

So the princess ran to the only person she could trust, a man who was frankly not a handsome prince.

Dieter Schwarz had been Flicka’s bodyguard for years. He had protected her from assassins, kidnappers, and high school dates who got too handsy after a few drinks. He was a sharp-witted, sharp-jawed, hard-muscled former Swiss Special Forces operator who had started his own private security firm, Rogue Security, and had no past that he spoke of.

No one knew that he had been her first lover and broken her heart, but he's the only one she can trust now.

To the Boss I Love to Hate,

1) I hate that you make me come at your every beck and call.
2) I hate your gorgeous cocky smile, and how you don’t know me at all.
3) I hate the way you stare at me as if I was your most precious thing.
4) I hate your expensive Italian suits.
5) I hate our one-night fling.
6) I hate that you’re always wrong, but your ego is too big to see it.
7) I hate how awkward you acted, when I told you I was pregnant.
8) I hate how you crept into my heart, and how deeply you cared for me.
9) Lastly, even though you represent everything I hate…
I hate that I fell for you just like every other girl you know.

Sawyer West… I love you, and I hate that I love you.
If only I could be certain you’re no longer the boy from college I once knew.
With our baby girl on the way, could we truly make us work?
If only we weren’t so different, then maybe things could be so different…

P.S. - I still hate working for you.
Berlin Roth

This year, I only have one wish for Christmas.
I want my wife and our unborn child back.

I used to spend my days getting clients out of prison and women into my bedroom.
But when I met Quinn, everything changed.
The moment I saw this breathtaking beauty with angel’s eyes and a smile that makes you melt,
I knew we were meant to be.

When I introduced her to my family this X-Mas, she was in shock.
Well, seems like a primary school teacher from a small town isn’t used to having dinner with billionaires.
But that’s exactly why I love her:
Her down-to-earth and lighthearted ways show me what’s really important in life.

But now I’m about to lose everything.

One of my former clients got out of prison.
He still blames me for his conviction and he’s out for revenge.
That’s why he kidnapped Quinn.
And according to the pregnancy test I found, not only her… but also the gift that’s growing inside of her.

To get her free, I need to fulfill his demand:
He doesn’t want my money. He wants my life.
I must kill myself to save Quinn and our baby.
I guess we need a X-Mas miracle. The clock is ticking.
