For Logan Dillon, it’s a beautiful day to get married. She stands with her bridesmaids in the dressing room of a large church that’s packed to the rafters with wedding guests. She’s only moments from walking down the aisle and giving her hand in marriage when there’s a knock at the door. Logan opens the door and there stands the groom—the man of her dreams, resplendent and handsome in his tuxedo—holding the hand of another woman. This woman is tall, gorgeous, perfect looking—and she wears a bridal gown. A few frantic and chaotic moments later, Logan’s fiancé is replacing her with this other woman—his new bride—and throwing Logan out of her own wedding. Crushed and devastated, not knowing what to do, Logan decides to take her best friend along with her and go on the honeymoon that she had planned for herself and her new husband-to-be. Two days later, walking alone in the evening on a tropical beach, she watches as a mysterious man comes swimming to shore. He stands from the surf—wet, glistening, shining golden in the light of a setting sun—and with one penetrating look into her eyes—he takes her breath away.

The next seven days of Logan’s life will be dark, sad, funny, exciting, and dangerous. They will be the most suspenseful that she, or any other jilted bride, has ever experienced. Indeed, she will almost lose her life, but in the end, her lonesome honeymoon will be as romantic and passionate as she’s ever dared to dream.

Read Sailor Stone’s new romance novel, The Passion Brokers, Honeymoon Beach, today.

Two bad ass bikers, one sassy bartender with a heart of gold and the mouth of a sailor, will their fight for a happily ever after end in a fight for their lives?

Olive:

When I took a job bartending at the Bucktail Saloon, the local dive owned by the Mountain Misfits MC, I ended up with a lot more than I bargained for.
These men are my family, this club is my world, and for the first time in my life, I feel like I have a place I can call home.
I would do anything to protect the patch and my reputation, even if it means I’ll spend the rest of my life single and alone.
Besides, if it came down to choosing between the men I loved the most, I don’t think I could.
Red and Tank, the enforcers for the MC, have been on my radar since the day I walked through that door.
There’s Mr. Right, Tank, dark, brooding, and a master motorcycle mechanic who really has his life together. He’s way too good for a girl like me.
Then there’s Red, aspiring MMA fighter with the random tattoos and abs for days to prove it, Mr. Right Up My Alley. I’m sure if we hooked up, it’d only be a matter of time before we ended up dead or in jail.
When Red approaches me with a proposition that I can’t turn down, one that almost seems too good to be true, it becomes apparent that sometimes the right choice is no choice at all. And sometimes a perfect, violent, quiet storm comes along and makes all the choices for you.


Bound By Steel is a steamy full length novel featuring a MFM romance. Can be enjoyed as a standalone, but if you’ve been following the Mountain Misfits MC, there’s lots of cameos from all your favorite characters! Warning: motorcycle club violence and language.

He's everything she didn't know she wanted. She's everything he thought he could never have.

The last thing I expect when I walk into The Hawkeye Club is to fall head over heels in lust. It’s supposed to be a rescue mission. I have to get my baby sister off the pole, into some clothes, and out of the grasp of the pussy peddler who somehow manipulated her into stripping. But the moment I see Savage Hawke and verbally spar with him, my ability to remain rational flies out the window and my libido takes center stage. I’ve never wanted a relationship—my time is better spent focusing on taking down the scum running this city—but what I want and what I need are apparently two different things.

Danika Eriksson storms into my office in her high heels and on her high horse. Her holier-than-thou attitude and accusations should offend me, but instead, I can’t get her out of my head or my heart. Her incomparable drive, take-no-prisoners attitude, and blatant honesty captivate me and hold me prisoner. I should steer clear, but my self-preservation instinct is apparently dead—which is exactly what our relationship will be once she knows everything. It’s only a matter of time.

The truth doesn’t always set you free. Sometimes, it just royally screws you.

***Savage Collision is the first book in The Hawke Family Series. While it is a complete story, it is NOT meant to be read as a standalone. The story of the Hawke siblings continues in book two, Tortured Skye, and book three, Stone Sober. These stories all build on one another and are intertwined. They need to be read in order to fully enjoy and understand the plots. Many reviews for Savage Collision contain MAJOR spoilers for the book without being marked as containing spoilers. This book is best enjoyed without the spoiler information. ***

"Mondello's latest, a pulse-pounding, pitch-perfect addition to the romantic suspense genre...Terrific escapist entertainment, as good as anything in Janet Evanovich's oeuvre." - Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

Contemporary Romantic Suspense Novel featuring a sexy police officer and a crime novelist in jeopardy: 70,000 words

BOOK 1 of the Heroes of Providence series.

Who does she trust when the horror of one of her crime novels turns into a deadly reality?

Bestselling crime novelist, Cassie Alvarez, aka Cassie Lang, had murder on her mind when she walked into Rory's Bar under dressed and under cover to research her latest crime novel. Researching the cool, blue-eyed and dashingly handsome man at the end of the bar stirred her senses more than she wanted to admit. But was this man of leather armor all he appeared to be?

Playing White Knight to an innocent wasn't how Detective Jake Santos planned to spend his time under cover. But there was no way "CJ" was what she claimed to be and that nagging tightness in Jake's chest told him he'd better take her home to safety and leave it at that. Then the barroom exploded with gunfire, leaving a trail of dead that includes a notorious Providence organized crime boss and an undercover FBI agent. When Cassie's name is leaked to the media as the only witness to the grisly murders, Cassie insists she only trusts Jake to protect her.

The FBI wants their star witness happy and will do anything to make sure Cassie testifies. But someone wants vigilante justice and it is clear to Jake that the shooter isn't the only person who wants Cassie dead. Not knowing who to trust, he vows to protect Cassie at all cost despite the fact that guarding the beautiful novelist is a serious distraction.

Nothing But Trouble

Love isn’t something I deserve. Not after everything I’ve done.

None of the women in my life were there for the right reasons.

Not my wife, who I married for convenience and to shut my father up.

And not the beautiful girl from my childhood that I used from time to time when it pleased me to do so.

Not a single one of them. I’ve burned so many bridges and broken far too many hearts.

And yet, fate has a way of f*cking with a fellow.

As CEO of my father’s billion-dollar publishing firm, I’m always looking for great writers, and a new one just showed up.

My high-school fling.

Not that I expected a warm reunion, but this delicious tart is having none of it. No matter what I do to push.

I’m a different man now, and I want a love affair to fulfill my life. The kind most people only dream of.

It’s the holiday season, and I have one wish.

To find the right woman for me and my son to spend our lives with.

Crazily enough, she’s sitting across the proverbial negotiating table, looking for a job.

Little does she know, she’s got the job, the ring, the future–if she wants it.

I just need to convince her to fall for me again.

From USA Today Best Selling Author, Ali Parker comes, “The 12 Sexy Days of Christmas.”

Snow covers the ground and love is in the air in the southern city of Savannah.

I’ve only recently gotten out of the military, but my best friend’s father gave me a good job at his security firm.

The last person I expected to find working there was my best friend’s little sister – all grown up.

She’s beyond beautiful and such a handful – in more ways than one.

I can’t help but think about what we could be if she would stop being so damn difficult, but it’s part of her charm.

She’s in for the adventure of her lifetime with me, and it’s going to start one winter night soon.

The kiss was innocent.

Just a gesture to help out a pretty girl losing her mind. And yet, it set in motion a firestorm I can’t stop.

Not that I want to. With my life in shambles, this crazy woman who showed up at my casino might just be exactly what I need.

As a gambling man, I’m willing to put everything on the line for love.

Even my reputation as a bad boy. But she’s worth it.

Addictive. Adventurous. So hot it hurts.

And yet, to her, this affair is the start of a game, one I might get burned playing.

But I refuse to back down.

It might have started with one night in Vegas, but I’m going to make sure it lasts for a lifetime.

One Night in Vegas is a full novel with a HEA on steroids. Enjoy!

She work for his firm as an intern throughout the next year.

Her billionaire boss plays lots of games and though she hates herself for it, Bethany is more than yearning for the chance to fulfill His Needs.

Love is a Lie.

As a photographer for the New York Post, Kari Martin was used to seeing heartache and scandal up close. But one night at the club… her whole world changed.

Heartbroken and willing to call off her wedding, she decides a change is in order and moves from NYC to a small town in Maine, where the average age of the residents there is sixty (or thereabouts). She works to fit in perfectly, and tries like hell not to let anyone find out just how very jaded she’s recently become over the lie called love.

Jake Isaac left Texas quite a few years ago; his heart torn from his chest, and his mind set on being a bachelor forever. Maine would welcome him, give him land to explore and a community to belong to. Getting a job as the coach of the local junior high and serving on the fire department kept him busy — and labeled him a hometown hero — but the truth of his damaged heart was forever hidden.

No one would ever know just how jaded he was about love. That is… until he meets Kari.


COMPLETE STORY - HEA.

** 18+ Explicit sex scenes & foul language.

When Maddie Carter comes back from the grave, will Hawk have a fresh start with the one who got away?

Deep Six pilot, former Army Nightstalker, Rhett Hawkins, knew the day would come, but he had hoped it wouldn't be until after he was gone. Maddie Carter was destined to die young, because that is just how she lived. She flew by the seat of her pants and flying as all she cared about. He'd learned that the hard way, when he asked her to marry him and she shot him down.

But after her memorial service, Hawk just couldn't get past the feeling that something was wrong with the recounting of the events that led to the crash and her supposed death. Neither the helo or her body had been found. It drove him insane until he decided to do some investigation of his own. After getting conflicting stories from two surviving special operators, he knew he had to go the full distance to settle his mind.

Once in Central America, Hawk realizes there is much more going on than the Army knows. Not only is the now blacked-out military helicopter back in service, Maddie is behind the stick making drug runs for a brutal cartel. When he has to convince her she needs to be rescued, Hawk quickly realizes she is not the same. Captain Maddie Carter is scarred, hardened and has no memory of him or her former life at all.

When her memory starts to return and secrets are revealed, would they mean he'd saved her only to have to bury her again? And would those secrets change his own life forever, either way?

Don't Blink... You Might Miss Something.

Joe Castaletta has been running the underbelly of Chicago for decades, but it's now time to turn over the keys to the kingdom. His right-hand man, Demetri DeMarco, is more than ready to race forward into a new way of doing old school. With Joe's sexy daughter as his enforcer and a gang of mobsters to keep things running smoothly, he's confident, collected and a bastard and a half.

The only thing that's just out of his reach is the one thing he wants most... Izabella.

**If you've read Judged, this is Drake DeMarco's older brother. If you're read my Bad Money Series... you should recognize Marcus, who joins the crew in this first novel.

The first novel in a long running series. A cliffhanger is possible, though each book is intended to focus on a different part of the Castaletta syndicate structure.

+18 - Mature Themes include excessive foul language, explicit sex scenes and violence/blood/gore. Not for the faint of heart and has the possibility of offending (don't we all?).

Betrayed and jilted, Jennifer Dewitt finds solace in a new job and new city. Men and marriage are not on her radar. Adrien Merrill's divorce leaves him bitter and jaded. In Cajun custom, pride rules. Yet Adrien aches for a woman to fill his days with laughter, his nights with passion, and his house with children. He sets his sights on Jennifer and runs right into stubborn, mouthy and independent. He soon discovers the line between pride and love is as whisper thin as a fine silk thread.

All he has to do is keep her safe and not fall in love… Easy, right?

Callie Summer, CEO of the Four Seasons lingerie business, is in shock. She’d expected her new PA to be a middle-aged frump, but Jean turns out to be Gene, and he’s neither middle-aged, nor anything like a frump. When the gorgeous Bond-lookalike insists he’ll be the perfect companion on her business trip around the country, Callie agrees to give him a trial. Having recently found her ex in bed with another woman, she’s not looking for love. But a little bit of private lusting never did anyone any harm.

Once a military journalist with the New Zealand Army, Gene now runs his own security firm. Hired by Callie’s mother, Phoebe, to secretly protect her daughter after Phoebe receives death threats against her family, Gene finds his work cut out for him. Callie’s as delectable as she is infuriating, and his urge to seduce her fights with his duty to keep her safe.

It’s not long before they give in to their passion, and the weather isn’t the only thing that turns hot and sultry as they travel further north. But Gene can’t keep his identity a secret from Callie forever. And when an attempt is finally made on her life, the truth threatens to break them apart.

Warning: it grows hotter and hotter as they travel north through the country. So does the weather.
