"Keeps you on the edge of your seat!" ~ Julia Handley Her past just might become my downfall... All I want is to keep her safe. Because that's my job. All she wants is to escape the chains of her past and start over. Fresh. But the vicious hands of the Russian Mafia and her violent ex-husband are reaching out to snatch her. Kill her. I can protect her. Nothing is more important to me keeping Nessa safe. But she's tugging at my heart strings with her fiery red hair and equally feisty personality. I have to resist. I will resist. Nothing is more important to me than being the best US Marshal the government has ever hired. Until it isn't. First it was fear. Then it was passion. And it couldn't be denied. ***** DOWNFALL is a full-length, steamy romantic suspense by USA Today Bestselling author, Colleen Charles, featuring an alpha US Marshal and his feisty, red-headed curvy girl. It's a standalone with a HFN and does not have a cliffhanger. "Red is a GREAT color!" ~ Alison Schooley

After 26 years in Corporate leadership at a Fortune 500, I discovered people within the organization lacked integrity. I’d always known deep in my soul that I was trying to fit a square peg in to a round hole since I’m the typical creative type. I miss my staff but I don’t miss the corporate world. It’s been said that the Universe will let you know if something isn’t right for you. The first time, it will hit you with a pebble. Then a brick. Then a boulder. Let’s just say that I got flattened. When my fifteen pound toy dog, Nigel, was threatened, I knew it was time to say goodbye. It’s true. Here’s what I found within the first thirty days of being free. Writing stories from my heart that readers love means more to me than working myself in to an early grave for people who only care about their bottom line. My heart has never been more full and my soul has never been more satisfied. I’ve never worked so hard in my life but it doesn’t even feel like work. It’s worth it. All of it. Because it’s about the joy that’s found within the journey. The highs and the lows because I get to write stories for all of you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading, enjoying and recommending the stories that I write. When you share my work with others, nothing is more rewarding. Your word of mouth is my very best friend … that, and your reviews. There is nothing more important to me than all of you. I love to hear from my readers and answer all communications personally.
