READ THE PROLOGUE AND FIRST CHAPTER OF CROSS MY HEART NOW!

We are just days away from the 2/22/22 release of CROSS MY HEART! That means it’s time for another teaser…

“If I have you again, you’ll be mine.  Dark parts and all.”  His emotions weren’t civilized where she was concerned. “I can be your guard. Just that. You say the word, and I won’t touch you again.” His hand flexed at his sides. He could still feel her. “I will keep you safe, I swear it.”

She watched him with her incredible green gaze. The brightest eyes. Pure emerald. 

“I’ll stand by you through whatever will come.” She needed to know that. “No strings. Nothing.”           

“Elijah…”

“Or you and I can be more.”  His hands fisted once more. Released. “But we both know how dangerous that can be, so you have to decide if you’re ready for that.” Ready for me.

We are just one week away from the 2/22/22 release of CROSS MY HEART!

Teaser time:

“I don’t want you as much as before.”

 Pain flashed in her eyes—

“I want you more.” That was the problem.  “And if I get my hands on you again…” The ragged sound of his own breathing seemed to fill the room. There will be no going back.  “You picture me as the hero, but, baby, I’ve got a darkness inside that you can’t even imagine.  Be sure you want that—be sure you want me.” The real me. And not just some hero she saw because he’d had the badge when they first met. “Because if I get inside you again, you will be mine.” Did she get what he was saying? He wasn’t talking about having her for one day. Or a night. She would belong to him. 

Are you ready to let the dangerous times roll? Because I’ve got a FREE Mardi Gras romantic suspense for you! UNTIL DEATH is free at all major ebook retailers.

When everyone wears a mask, who can you trust? And who can you love?

When Ivy DuLane witnesses a murder during the madness of Mardi Gras, she enters a deadly cat and mouse game with the killer. The city has gone wild with the annual celebration, and Ivy has to rely on sexy homicide detective—and her ex-lover—Bennett Morgan for help. But with every moment that passes, the killer grows bolder, and the body count starts to rise. It soon becomes very hard to tell the innocent from the guilty…especially since Bennett is keeping dark secrets of his own.

Author’s Note: Get ready for the dangerous times to roll…UNTIL DEATH is a hot romantic suspense with a fierce hero, a heroine who will jump from a Mardi Gras float any day of the week, and a dark killer who just will not stop.

I wrote UNTIL DEATH back in 2015 (after I attended my first ever Mardi Gras ball). I couldn’t help it–the crush of the crowd, all of the masks, the ice sculptures that flowed with fireballs–the scene just seemed to be perfect for a murder. (Or two…)

I am going to leave UNTIL DEATH free during the Mardi Gras season. I hope you enjoy it! Let those good times roll!

I’ve got a new book that I want to tell you about!! In May, I will be releasing THE BODYGUARD NEXT DOOR, a romantic suspense that will be set in my “Wilde Ways” world.

He’s danger and a wicked, hot grin…

Iris Stuart may have a small crush on her neighbor. After all, Pierce Jennings is gorgeous, muscled, and he has a laugh that makes her toes curl. But she is not going down that particular path of temptation with the former Army Ranger and current Wilde agent. Nope. Not happening. They’ll stay in the friend zone because it’s safer that way. Safer for her—and for him. Even if looking into his baby blues makes her heart race.

She’s sunshine, secrets, and a bit of sin…

Pierce’s new neighbor wears paint-splattered jeans, she smells like sin, and he wants to put his hands all over her gorgeous body. Too bad she’s friend-zoned him. Too bad she’s starring in most of his fantasies. Too bad he can’t get her out of his head.

But when danger comes knocking, he’s just the man she needs.

So Iris may have a slightly infamous past—and a family who more than dabs in art forgeries. Iris inherited some of their not-so-slightly shady skills, and unfortunately, now some dangerous people want to use her. When the bad guys don’t take no for an answer and they try to abduct her, it’s her sexy bodyguard next door who comes to her rescue.

Suddenly, she’s got his protection.

The bad guys want her art skills, the Feds in stiff suits want her to work a sting, and Pierce? He just wants her to be his.  And what Pierce wants, he will get. Even if he has to take down an undercover art ring and take on the Feds, he will stay by Iris’s side. He’s not just going to be her bodyguard. Before they are done, he plans to be one hell of a lot more to her…

Author’s Note: Does it get better than having a seriously buff, ready-to-handle-any-threat bodyguard…right next door? For Iris Stuart, this turn of events is probably the best thing that has ever happened to her. But falling for sexy Pierce wasn’t supposed to happen. She’s the bad girl. He’s the hero. Except…maybe a bad girl can win the heart of the hero, provided, of course, that they can survive the danger heading their way. It’s time for another WILDE ride. What can you expect? Hot times, lots of danger, humor, thrills…and a guaranteed happy ending.
