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.

Robert Epperson embarks on a quest away from an otherworldly college realm on the High Plains of Texas and into a corporate cauldron that induces an altered state. Once he is awakened to American tyranny, Robert takes his girlfriend, Jennifer, on a supercharged ride to save his family in a small Texas town. Little does Robert know that the same authoritarianism he tries to warn against will bring him down and force an epic transformation, one that shapes his perception of Jennifer's pivotal role in the game of being cruel to be kind.

Thistles Landing — a fresh and current retelling of mythical, archetypal heroic journeys — is a dynamic, engrossing, and thought-provoking read that will keep you turning pages as you venture into lost territory of the mind and heart.

Decorated with a latticework of surreal poetic visuals — a steady camera recording through the eyes of mania — this thrilling account of Robert's emerging disorder pits raw, often unpalatable emotion against the background of loving and supportive relationships. One must give way to the other, and, through some stumbling about, the path eventually becomes clear.

Robert's conquest, and yours, is a soundtrack for breaking down in order to build anew. The journey from the fall must go though a harsh winter before the hope of spring returns, a lesson that applies both at an individual level and to the evolution currently occurring in American society.

The death of her father and the collapse of his fortune forces innocent pre-med student Alyssa Carlyle into the erotic world of high class escorting. She soon discovers her mysterious boss is also her estranged and provocative stepbrother Mace. Neither can deny their shameless desire and steamy passion, but can they develop the trust and commitment needed to escape the dark world they've entered?

*** Mace ***

I own an exclusive escort service for high-end girls and high-rollers. I’m having my most profitable year ever. My life is fan-f**king-tastic.

Until the day my smoking hot stepsister, Alyssa, waltzes in for a job and strips off her clothes.

What the hell is she doing here, saying her name is Carly Olson? How the hell could this happen? My situation was perfect until she showed up. Now I'm entirely obsessed with her. Night and day, I can’t get her out of my mind. I want her or no woman at all.

*** Alyssa *** 

I’m a hardworking, studious good girl, an honors student at Princeton.

My sexy-as-hell stepbrother, Mace, is an ass. A cocky, skirt-chasing, testosterone driven MMA fighter who makes millions doing things he won't talk about. He walked out of my life on the day of our parents' funeral, and he can just stay out. I definitely don't want to let him back in.

So, when I'm drowning in student debt and about to lose my scholarship, why do I find myself asking for his help? And why am I so willing to follow him into this underworld? My virginity is a valuable commodity and I've given him control of it. I only hope he realizes he wants me for himself, before he auctions my virtue away to a wealthy stranger.
