Born To Be Wild
Welcome to Paradise, Book 3
(April 2012, Samhain Publishing)

Being bad never felt so good…

Bree Lockhart was always the good girl—on the surface. During her senior year of high school, however, her inner bad girl was lured out to play by reckless, carefree Jake Bishop. Her parents’ worst nightmare, and the man she’s never forgotten.

Twelve years later, she’s home for a charity event and up for auction. The highest bidder? Jake. This time around, he wants more than a wild ride—he wants it all. But she’s not about to risk her heart on another fling that’ll just leave it in pieces.

Jake once reveled in showing Bree how good it is to be bad. But convincing her he can be good for her is going to take some very special tactics… 

Product Warnings
This book features a bad boy soldier determined to chip away at a good girl’s resistance with hot sex, hot sex, and…more hot sex.

Take Me Home Tonight
Welcome to Paradise, Book 2
(October 2011, Samhain Publishing)

One unforgettable night…a lifetime of regret? 

Three years. That’s how long Maddie’s been running the reception desk at Owen Bishop’s construction company—and waiting for her sexy boss to wake up and realize she’s more woman than the airhead bimbos he seems to prefer.

Even after her friends spring an ambush makeover on her, Owen barely notices. Apparently shedding her one-of-the-guys, tomboy looks isn’t enough. Looks like it’s time to step up her game, even if it means looking for lessons in all the wrong places.

While Owen can’t help but notice Maddie’s stunning transformation, the truth is, he likes her just the way she is—polished up or dressed down. Like his playboy father, though, he’s always been restless when it comes to women. Maddie’s friendship is too important to risk hurting her.

When Maddie shows up at his door ready to rock his world, all his resistance crumbles. But in the back of his mind, the question remains…how can she trust him with her vulnerable heart, when he’s not sure he can trust himself?

Warning: Contains a girl who’ll do anything to please her man, even if it means signing up for a master class in seduction with the town bad boy. Plus a man who may let the “sins of the father” stop him from accepting the gift of a lifetime.

Witness Seduction
(September 2011, Harlequin Blaze)

Surveillance Report

DEA Agent: Caleb Ford

Subject: Marley Kincaid, aka Nurse Hottie

Purpose: Kincaid's drug–dealing ex, Patrick Grier, is on the run after killing a DEA agent. Grier won't be able to stay away from Kincaid—she's way too tempting…

Day One: Kincaid's oblivious to the danger. Spends all her time renovating and doing sexy yoga. Damn, she moves her body in tantalizing ways.

Day Three: If I see her curvy silhouette one more time I'm in serious trouble.

Day Five: No sign of Grier, but after a few days of observation, things are getting incredibly…er, hard.

Day Seven: I had no choice but to make contact with Kincaid. Now that I've touched her, it's impossible to stop. The investigation is jeopardized. Seduction is imminent…God help me.


Night after night, Caleb Ford stakes out the house of the curvy and tantalizing woman next door, waiting for her fugitive ex-fiancé to show up. Yet for an assignment that should be easy, this one is turning out to be oh so hard, especially when he can’t stop fantasizing about the woman who might very well be working with the enemy. But who said he can’t use a little bit of seduction to uncover the sexy nurse’s secrets?

Welcome to Paradise
Book 1
(July 2011, Samhain Publishing)

Revenge can be sweet. Forgiveness is sweeter.

Singing sensation Charlotte Hill can’t wait for her high school reunion. She’s out to give Nate Bishop—the man who walked away with her virginity—the sexiest ride of his life. Then give him a heaping dose of the same medicine he gave her fifteen years ago.

Stomp all over his heart as she walks out the door.

Nate has never forgotten the green-eyed redhead who set his body on fire, the one girl who saw past his bad reputation. The heat of those memories still warms his thoughts, even after all these years. After he did the right thing and let her go, rather than let his love chain her to a town she despised.

Now she’s back in Paradise looking sexier than ever, and Nate finds himself powerless to keep his distance. And Charlotte, in spite of her resolve, can’t believe she’s so easily falling under his spell. Yet mind-blowing sex doesn’t bury the past. It unearths painful emotions too long buried. Emotions that could stamp out rekindled love before it catches flame… 

Warning: Contains a reformed bad boy and a newly minted bad girl with revenge on her mind, feuding families, dirty little secrets, and a lot of dirty sex.

Hidden Desires
(April 2010, Samhain Publishing)

Solving a cold case has never been hotter.

Life just isn't fair. Not only is fashion designer Rachel Foster on the wrong side of a locked dressing room door in nothing but her underwear, her humiliation is worse than public. It's witnessed by the one man she never wanted to see again: Travis Gage, the man who pushed her sister to suicide.

In a flash, old wounds—and long-forgotten feelings—lie raw and exposed to his hot, desiring gaze.

Seeing Rachel all grown up and sexy jolts Travis with a surge of lust—and the shock of learning she blames him for her sister's death. His skills as a cold-case detective are exactly what she needs to solve the mystery and lay her sister's ghost to rest. But first, he has to convince Rachel he's innocent…and that she can trust him.

And if she winds up in his bed in the process, he won't be complaining...
Warning: This title contains a sexy cop and a heroine who can't resist him. Expect some super-hot sex that will have you fanning yourself.
