Sweet Carnage
2025
Madison Juno
_He didn’t need love, only leverage. Until she ran, pregnant and broken._
Five years ago, I made a deal with the devil. Bratva heir Artyom Petrov. Ruthless. Filthy rich. Fourteen years older. “Everything has a price, little thief,” he whispered in that dim room. “This is what my mercy costs.” His powerful touch made my breath hitch, raw and irreversible. But when those two pink lines showed up, I ran—driven away by the hissing nest of vipers that surrounds him. Now I’m back in the city and I thought he’d forgotten me. Oh how wrong I was—he might have ruined me, but I consumed him. He spent five years protecting me in the dark shadows of obsession. And as the bullets fly around us, he puts a ring on my finger. Shattering my doubts with his rough hands and possessive words. I’m his. Which means there’s a blood-soaked target on my back. But his twisted plan will protect us. It has to. Because our daughter’s life is at stake if we can’t win this battle…
Warning: Sweet Carnage is a romance set in the New York Bratva (Russian mafia) with violence, loads of open-door spice and a morally gray male lead. This is a standalone novel which ends with a HEA.

Code Second Chance
2025
Sofia Archer
Six years since he chose hockey fame over forever. And now fate delivers him to me broken, beautiful, and off-limits.
My ex-fiancé is in my hospital bed—half-naked, smirking through the pain. And I’m the sports medicine doctor responsible for his recovery. Every rule I’ve lived by says
don’t touch him.
But every cell in my body remembers exactly how it feels. Late nights turn into lingering hands. Professional distance disappears in a heartbeat. And the man I swore I’d never forgive whispers my name like a devotion. Then I meet Sophie—his daughter. And she looks at me like I already belong to them both. I tell myself it’s just medicine. Just closure. But when his lips find mine in the dark, all my promises burn. Now I’m risking the career I built from the rubble he left behind. But the more I fall for him and his daughter—the more I see the truth.
Some second chances are worth all the risk.
Code Second Chance is a standalone single-dad, forced proximity, doctor/patient romance with a HEA. It is the third book in the Hearts On Call series. The books can be read in any order.
