A girl, a guy, a set of handcuffs… What more could happily ever after possibly need?

Anything & Everything, Book 2

Kat would love to let Luke in, but if he discovers the truth—that committee meetings bore her to tears and she’d rather have a root-canal than go to another potluck—his white-picket-fence dreams will be crushed.

Being stuck in an RV with Luke should be three days of flirtatious fun, but for Kat it’s heavenly hell. The close confines and good old-fashioned lust are making a mockery of her perfect-woman façade, and if he finds out about the mistake that might cost her job—and force her to leave town for good—it’ll take more than a sexy pair of handcuffs to keep him close.

His ship, his rules…

Product Warnings: Contains a werewolf king with wandering hands, a creepy English professor with nefarious plans, and one hell of an unexpected gala evening at Columbia.

Losing nearly everything leaves room for the one thing they can’t live without.

A few excruciating minutes pinned in a burning building cost Ryan Ward his job as a firefighter, the easy camaraderie of his coworkers, his girlfriend, and damn near cost him his left leg.

It’s nothing they can’t learn to navigate, though. But when dead bodies start turning up on campus—and one of the guys is a suspect—their first taste of real love could go up in smoke.

And so the games begin. Trent feints, Mazie parries. He threatens, she pretends nonchalance. He cajoles, she rebuffs. Thwarted at every turn, Trent probes deep into her one vulnerability—her past. There he finds the leverage he needs and a searing truth that challenges all he believes about right and wrong.

He can't fight his inner beast, but she can tame it.

Creatures trapped for centuries, free at last…to kill!

Only Violet understands him. And she knows he's not what he seems.

She has one night to draw forth the secrets of this dangerously handsome rogue. Is he a smuggler? A fugitive? An enemy spy? She needs answers by sunrise, but her captive would rather seduce than confess. To learn his secrets, Violet must reveal hers–and open herself to adventure, passion, and the unthinkable… Love.

Product Warnings: The heroine packs a pistol, the hero curses in multiple languages, and together they steam up a cold winter's night.

The sun's not the only thing that's too hot to handle.

Then I learn why the police seem so interested in me. My ex-husband is drawing a series of murders in his new comics. I'm in every one of them, and it looks like I'm supposed to be the last victim. The detective's interest in my past–and his protective instincts–are bordering on unprofessional, but I can't seem to bring myself to care.

Because the last place I should want to be is the safest place on earth…a vampire's embrace.

Product Warnings: If you like your vampires sparkly and emotional, don't read this book. It contains an overworked, underpaid, bloodsucking hero who might break your heart.

Time to put out…or get out.

Paolo's Playhouse, Book 2

Will loves his wife, but she's never been one to take chances–except for the time before kids, when they'd camp out in a club's back booth, getting all worked up watching the dirty dancers. Their careers have seriously cut into their "us" time, and if she's booked them a sexual playroom, it sounds like she's serious about solving the problem.

When Will shows up way, way late, Amy wonders why she bothered, and if her plan to relight the flame has only made it painfully clear that it's too late to try.

Product Warnings: Sparks flying, angry words flying, clothes flying, and a loving couple trying to find their way back to each other.

The virgin isn't the only one with something to lose…

Sequel to The Distance Between Us

Kieran is no one's teacher, and his first instinct is to run like hell in the other direction. But his conscience won't let him throw the naïve kid to the wolves for someone else to take advantage of. The plan is to introduce Alex to his own sexuality, pull him out of his shell, then go their separate ways.

It's the perfect, foolproof plan…assuming no one falls in love.

Born to freedom. Molded into submission. Pleasure is her only weapon.

Humanotica, Book 1

Until Entreus bargains his body in exchange for a secret meeting that rekindles her longing for freedom. Yet helping the fiery revolutionary execute his plan isn't so simple, especially when she discovers her master's secret–a secret that leaves her heart torn between two men. And one step in the wrong direction could mean death for them all.

Product Warnings: Contains wickedly inventive sexual situations and language, including not-so-ordinary body modification and same-sex scenes with BDSM elements. And a most unusual application of decorative silver. Please step away if your taste doesn't run toward the exotic.

Hit the erotic jackpot.

Hot in the City, Book 2

However, when the two are ripped apart without warning, all bets are off. To Marc, Diana's wild side is too beautiful to be contained. Too beautiful, he suddenly realizes, to let him walk away without playing to win.

This book has been previously published.

Product Warnings: Contains a full deck of erotic delights and a heroine who's holding all the cards–three of a kind and everything's wild. Who says the house always wins?

If any man wants more than a dance with her, they'll have to get past him…

Konigsburg, Texas, Book 5

When Big John Brandenburg sends Deirdre's ex-boyfriend to drag her home, the plan backfires, leaving Tom's bar in shambles and Deirdre kidnapped by a band of loony Texas secessionists.

Things are looking pretty bleak–except the good people of Konigsburg have no intention of giving Deirdre up, either. Even if it takes every Faro employee, every last Toleffson, and one cranky iguana to give the honky-tonk lovebirds a chance at forever.

Product Warnings: Contains dirty dancing, hot summer sex, a honky-tonk makeover, and one nippy iguana.

When the going gets tough, the tough get busy. Real busy.

Roped, Book 2

The only reason Brent agrees to meet his brothers at Big Jack's is that Peyton never darkens the door on a Friday night. Except tonight. Seeing her is a painful reminder of his mistake and what it cost him–and that no other woman's lips or body will ever satisfy him like hers.

Nothing–not the past, not her legendary temper, not even the rock on her finger–will keep this cowboy from getting what he wants…

Product Warnings: Seduction served by a brooding and standoffish cowboy who wants nothing more than his ladylove's heart and soul–her body is just icing on the cake. Hot cowboy sex in a bar, in a barn, in a bed…just about anywhere.

Hard help can be good to find.

Romano and Albright, Book 2

PI Dan Albright is a man of many gifts: investigation, security, sex talk and driving Caesar nuts in and out of the bedroom. Hired to protect an outrageous soap star from a deranged personal assistant, Dan's got his hands full refereeing rival actors, locating one four-foot-eleven woman…and convincing Ce that he's playing for keeps.

Hey, nobody ever said taking a relationship to the next level was a waltz in the park.

Product Warnings: This book includes bad driving, a naughty German, dirty words, heated glances, mutual masturbation, oral sex, an evil scout, a memorable ride, and a fabulously affordable tuxedo. May cause unexpected bursts of laughter.

What happens in Vegas…sometimes follows you home.

Studs in Spurs, Book 3

Leesa Santiago has met the perfect guy. Her timing couldn't be worse though. If it was just their explosive sex, she could walk away. But from the moment her lap dance brought her this close to his baby blues, she was hooked. She can't lie that she couldn't be happier to bear his name–or guiltier that she's using it and his Oklahoma farm to hide out from mob hit men.

That's before Chase's family gets involved. And his determination to do the right thing pushes her to do the one thing that will keep him safe. Break his heart.

Do cowboy boots mix with stripper heels? And can a love that started out on the wrong foot end up on the right one? That's the risk you take waking up in Vegas.

Product Warnings: Contains one happy-ending lap dance that will make you squirm, some pretty hot sex between two strangers who also happen to be married to each other, and a huge surprise conclusion.

When your lover becomes a stranger, trust is the weakest link of all.

Suddenly the past shows up in a completely unexpected way, testing the boundaries of their old, coasting-along-on-fun relationship. Tony indeed finds that Jack isn't the man he went looking for, but it's too late. There's too much at stake to just walk away. First, though, he has to make sure there are no lies left for Jack to hide behind.

Product Warnings: Readers should be free of any heart condition that may be affected by a hero with an overactive imagination, painful back stories, and hot sex in a variety of athletic positions. Neither the author nor the publisher is responsible for any sudden or frequent urges to have children with Tony Gemetti.

Love takes no prisoners.

Captain Gabriella Markham is accustomed to standing on the deck of her ship, wind in her face. Not rotting in a dank hold on an enemy's ship. There's only one thing on her mind: revenge on the pirate responsible. Until she realizes the seriously injured man sharing the darkness is Captain Diego Cruz, the man she almost married.

Product Warnings: This book may lead to fantasies involving deserted islands, passionate affairs, and a belief in true love.

Even the best-laid seductions can go awry.

Veiled, Book 2

It works. Maira retreats, mortified and ashamed. And Sasha realizes he's just driven away the perfect woman. Now all he needs is a foolproof plan to win her back, starting with a proper courtship–and restraining his lust. Except once Maira glimpses the man behind the uniform, she sets out to show him that pure need has its own ideas about what's proper…

Product Warnings: Contains a brilliant heroine who knows how to take matters into her own hands, a sexy hero who knows how to win his woman, an awesome full-body massage, a tender romance and sizzling bedroom (and kitchen) shenanigans.

Let a terrorist take her? Not over his dead body and damned soul…

Silent Warrior, Book 1

After her husband trades his family to tango with double-Ds, Lauren Collins decides her dogs are better judges of character. She's unaware how far her soon-to-be-ex's web of deceit reaches–until the only thing between her, her sons and a killer is a wounded Delta soldier who activates her sorely neglected X-chromosome like nobody's business.

Their instant attraction is kryptonite to Jack's injury-dulled edge. Thrust into a world of peril, political treachery and treason, Lauren has no choice but to trust Jack with her life. Even if she and her sons survive, she's not sure her heart will…

Product Warnings: Contains a warrior who doesn't hesitate to lay his body on the line, more than one emotional love story to tug at your heart, and chaos at Chuck E. Cheese.

Falling for her might be easy, seducing her may be damned hard, but keeping her alive might just be deadly.

Harmless, Book 4

When Dee disappears, Micah's anger turns to fear when he realizes she didn't leave willingly. Calling on his skills as a former bounty hunter, he tracks her to the mainland only to discover she is entangled in a web of lies and deceit that not only threatens their love, but her life.

Product Warnings: This book contains more Hawaiian settings, a Native American Dom who always thinks he's right, a woman on the run, sexy kisses, murderous relatives, a trip to Sin City, and a seduction that is sweet and hot and everything in between.
