We’re just a week away from the 3/20/18 release of LIE CLOSE TO ME! Have you read the prologue and first chapter?

We’re getting close to the 3/20/18 release of LIE CLOSE TO ME! Are you ready for Luna and Maddox?

How about an early excerpt?

***

“How did you get here, Luna?” His hands were around her waist, trapping her there. Her legs were between his, and the hospital gown had definitely ridden up.  She was pretty sure her ass was totally exposed.

She felt heat blast her cheeks. “Let me go.”

If anything, his hold tightened. “Why would I do that? I spent the last week tracking you.”

He had?

Her hands were pressed to his chest.  The guy was huge and crazy fast, and he knew her. He’d been tracking her.

A shiver slid over her body.

“You’re cold. Fuck.”

In a blink, he had her on her feet once more. She started to run—seemed like a good plan—but he snagged her wrist. His fingers curled all the way around it, and Luna felt manacled to him as he bit off a single word, “Don’t.”

She stared up at him. She had to tip back her head to meet his gaze. He was way too big, and he scared the ever loving hell out of her.

Then he shrugged out of his battered coat. He let her wrist go long enough for him to shove her arms into the coat’s sleeves. The coat absolutely swallowed her, but it was warm. She’d just realized that she was ice cold. Now the warmth from his coat—his warmth—was pressing against her.  The coat smelled of him. A rich, masculine scent that she found oddly appealing.

She inhaled, savoring that scent a little, and then Luna looked up.  His face had gone rock hard, and he stared at her with a fixed intensity.

“How did you get here, Luna? Who helped you get out of the Lazarus facility?”

Her lips parted, but she didn’t know what to say.

His gaze swept down her body.  A furrow appeared between his brows. “No shoes. And is that just a paper gown? I mean, shit, we don’t react to the cold the way most people do, but it’s fifteen degrees outside. And this place has been shut down for years. The windows have more holes than glass in them. You’ve got to be shivering that sweet ass off.”

She was shivering, but it was mostly from fear. “You…know me.”

“Hell, yes, I know you.”

“I’m…Luna.” The more he said her name, the more—oddly—right it felt.

His stare hardened even more. “You don’t remember.”

No, she didn’t, so Luna shook her head.

He swore. Long and viciously.

She started to back up—

He snagged her wrist once more. “Oh, hell, no. You won’t be running from me again.”

Yes, oh, hell, yes, she would.  Luna knew she just had to wait for the right moment. This wasn’t that moment. She could tell.

“You died.” If anything, his face became even harder. Even more intense. “Sonofabitch, you died.”

Okay, now, she was worrying that he might be straight up crazy. She’d been willing to buy the super senses thing he’d talked about before—um, she could hear his heart beating when she focused and that was weird—but she was obviously not dead.

He yanked her closer to him.  Glared down at her. “You’re not like the others. Everything goes away when you die, dammit. You forget me.”

She was one man’s obsession…

Nine years ago, Claire Kramer’s lover brutally killed her family, and he tried to kill her. She escaped, but she’s been haunted ever since that attack. Too afraid to trust another man and too worried that her past will catch up with her, Claire never gets too close to anyone. But then she meets Noah York.

Noah York is a man with secrets. The world sees him as a billionaire hotel tycoon, but Noah has a dark and dangerous side. For years, he worked covert military operations before he built his fortune. When it comes to death, Noah is a master. He knows that he should steer clear of Claire, but the white-hot attraction Noah feels for the delicate beauty is instant—and consuming.

Someone else is just as consumed by Claire—someone who will kill to possess her. And if Noah can’t stop the hunter in the darkness, he may just lose the one woman that he can’t live without.

**MINE TO HOLD is a stand-alone story. No cliff-hangers!**

I’ve got book news! Are you ready for a new paranormal romance? Because I’ve got one for you–time to get WICKED AND WILD:

She was wicked…

Everyone knew that Valerie Storm was the baddest bit—um, witch on the block. She might look like Snow White, but she had the heart of a wicked queen. She turned her enemies to ash, she danced on their graves, and she had to be stopped. But who could stand up to someone so wicked?

He was wild.

Griffin Bastien was the most powerful shifter to ever walk the earth. His claws had sent plenty of his foes to the grave. Bloodlust burned fast and hard within him, and when his beast took over, there was no stopping him.

Then Wicked met Wild.

Neither of them believed in love. And neither of them ever expected the firestorm that ignited when they kissed. But some things—some people—can’t be controlled. The need that Valerie and Griffin feel for each other, the white-hot lust, will change their world.

Even hell doesn’t burn this hot.

Too bad that Griffin has been keeping secrets. Too bad that he is the original assassin sent to destroy Valerie. Because when she finds out the truth, there will be no greater fury than a wicked witch betrayed. Even the biggest, baddest beast might discover that he’s absolutely lost when a witch casts her spell, and he will be willing to do anything to reclaim the mate he never expected.

Buckle up, it’s gonna be a wild ride.
