The Courtship Calculation
2023
Damien Northcutt is a gambler, a rake, a bastard, and… bored. Madeline Barnes is a botanist, a lady, an innocent, and… curious.
When Damien accidentally plays knight-errant and rescues Madeline from the clutches of her scheming relatives, he discovers she might be the key to getting what he’s always wanted—revenge.
Even though Damien has warned her repeatedly he is no gentleman, Madeline is sure deep down underneath his rakish demeanor he is a hero. Why else would he secret her out of a ball to safety?
Damien’s plan includes seduction but not marriage. What he doesn’t expect is being seduced himself by Madeline’s smiles and laughter and passion. But she is meant for Damien’s half brother, and enacting his revenge means ruining the match… and breaking her heart.

The Marriage Experiment
2023
As an amateur lepidopterist, Adriana Coffey would like nothing more than to live a quiet life in the country and await Cyrus Shaw’s return from his grand tour. After all, an understanding has existed between them since childhood. Unfortunately, with Cyrus out of the country, a marriage is arranged with her detestable stepbrother.
Dawson Shaw, the new Earl of Westhorpe, would like nothing more than to grab his younger brother up by the nape and shake some sense into him. Adriana is intelligent, beautiful, and unappreciated by society and his scapegrace brother. But is he willing to betray Cyrus in order to fulfill his own longings?
Adriana feels like she has no choice but to accept Dawson’s offer of marriage. Unlike the charming Cyrus, Dawson is aloof and cold… or is he? Their marriage is proof that assumptions can be disproven. The attraction between them is altogether unexpected and new for Adriana. But will their growing connection survive the coming tempest when Cyrus finally returns?

The Passion Project
2024
Star-gazer, astrologist, tea-leaf reader… Lady Geneva Dorn has heard the disdainful descriptions bandied about for years. In truth, she is a scientist, an astronomer to be exact. And, she is on the cusp of an incredible discovery—a new comet.Assassin, hero, soldier-for-hire…All true to some extent, but Selwyn McKelvey prefers opportunist. He’s brought down villains and despots. Now, he’s ready to plant roots at a peaceful cottage by the sea. He just has one last criminal to eliminate. Only, the brash, beautiful, extremely absent-minded, Lady Dorn hardly matches the description of hardened murderess he was given. Something very inconvenient occurs around her. He develops a conscience…and a weak spot for her intelligent mind and gorgeous body. In order to prove her theory—and finally gain recognition for her work—Geneva has to make it to the Scotland by summer solstice, only one week away. She doesn’t trust Wyn as far she could throw him (which wouldn’t be far at all, the man is a bear) but she needs an escort, and he seems to be the only option available. It seems more than one faction of the extremely competitive Royal Observatory is out to steal her research and shut her up for good. But on whose side will Wyn fall?
