Blood Brothers: Wealthy sheikhs from Amahad and the men from Grade A Security who provide their protection, bound by ties closer than family... Nijad - I'm a Sheikh, third son of the emir of Amahad, a small but powerful Arab state. After bringing shame on my country and acquiring the well-earned title of the Savage Sheikh, the emir banished me to the desert, where for three years I have led the primitive tribes; my job to prevent jihadists from crossing the border. Do I want a wife? Heck, no, I can't risk letting another woman getting close to me. What if I lost control again? But it seems I must marry, and my bride is to be an Englishwoman, kidnapped and forced into this arrangement as retribution for the crimes of a father she didn't even know Cara - I don't need a mirror; I know what I am. Preferring to avoid pitying looks, I live as a recluse, working from home. Professionally I'm a forensic accountant, but on the side, I'm an adept computer hacker. What I am most definitely not is someone who'd be kidnapped, stolen from their home, and forced to marry a desert sheikh. Coerced into an intimate relationship with a man who has a frightening reputation, and who's a complete stranger to me. Set amongst the backdrop of a multi-cultural Arab state struggling to keep out jihadists who threaten the freedoms of its peoples, Stolen Lives follows the story of two people, pushed into a relationship neither of them wants, forcing both to deal with the hand the past has dealt them. Stolen Lives is the first book in the Blood Brothers series. It has no cliff hanger and can be read as a complete standalone.

But I was selfish. I failed, again. And yet again, someone else paid the price for my failure. I’m a Dom; I should have known better. Mia For seven years I’ve been dead inside. Oh, I’ve been breathing air and walking around just like anyone else, but something was missing, I just didn’t know what. And now someone’s stalking me, threatening me, which brings him into my life. Not just any man, but a Dom, and now he’s become my protector. He makes me feel things I never believed I could ever feel. But the deeper I fall for him, the more he pulls away. And when it all goes wrong he blames himself, and I lose the first and only man I could ever love. But I’m going to get him back.

Sean When a ‘package’ is left for me at Grade A’s reception, I’m stunned to find it’s a baby along with a note suggesting that apparently, I’m the father and that her mother’s in danger. But who and where is the woman who birthed her? My employers, Grade A, support my need to find her, and for some reason, Ben teams me up with Vanessa. It will be her first time investigating in the field and I know she isn’t prepared to be thrown into something like this. Vanessa I’ve always fancied Sean, well, who wouldn’t? But when I discover he’s fathered a child and hasn’t a clue with whom, it brings home to me just the kind of man he is. Despite my longings, he’s never going to change, is he? So when Ben offers me my first job out of the office, I’m not happy being paired with Sean, I don’t do babies, and the last thing I want is to spend time close to one. But as I join him on his search I grow to see the man underneath the shallow exterior and find it gets harder to resist my attraction to him. And when his baby is kidnapped, I need to find out if I can step up and put my life on the line.

Jasim Although I’m the middle brother of the ruling family of the Arab state of Amahad, I’ve no particular fondness for my country, and long since have made my home in the UK where I’m part-owner of an exclusive BDSM club. My club fulfils my desire to play with a variety of subs, all of whom can cater to my particular tastes. Unlike my brothers, I have no desire to settle down and become a family man. It’s easy to see Janna is attracted to me, but she’s the same age as my baby sister, and just as innocent. If her age wasn’t enough for me to keep my distance, her lack of understanding about my lifestyle would seal the deal. She must understand I’m not the man for her, and will never be. Janna Playing lead guitar in an up and coming rock band I should already have had my fair share of men. But the band has kept me protected and secluded from intimate male company. The one night I break free from their control, I get attacked. And the man coming to my rescue is more dangerous to my well-being than the one who tried to molest me. Jasim wakes something inside of me, and I can’t lock my new feelings back into the box. He might not want me, but will he be able to resist in the heat of the desert? And what can I do to convince him that his darkest desires match my own?

As the youngest sister of the ruling sheikhs of Amahad my life has no significance except eventually I’ll be expected to make a political marriage. To avoid my fate, I’ve stayed away from the country of my birth, and remained forgotten until it appears someone is looking too closely into my life. As a princess I’m a target for kidnap. To ensure my protection I reluctantly return to Amahad, but immediately fall into the hands of a cruel terrorist. I didn’t expect to be equally attracted to the three men who come to my rescue. One I know immediately is submissive, perhaps a yin to my yang as I’m a Domme. Another himself a Dom and while life with him would be fun, it would be a constant battle for control. The third is a man who doesn’t label himself, but dominance pours out of every pore. Rami, Hunter and Rais. Three men who want me. Three men who vow to protect me. Three men who I want. Three men who each desire to fulfil all my erotic fantasies. Spoilt for choice as I’m thrown into a world of violence and terror, each will demonstrate why they are the man for me.
