He wants to run, but he also knows he can’t pass up this opportunity. After all, it's been his dream to work at London Enterprise, and he can't turn it down now, even if it means working as a PA for Rhys London. Fortunately, Rhys seems like an entirely different man. And while Carter doesn’t want to trust him, that isn’t easy when Rhys makes him want to believe in second chances. Carter’s been burned before, but being graced with one of the man’s rare smiles, Carter finds himself absolutely helpless against the racing beat of his heart. Rhys London has never been a man of feeling. Spending most of his life running his company and cleaning up after his destructive brother, he hasn’t had time for things like love. Until his business partner hired Carter Winter—a bright, beautiful man who makes Rhys want to feel. And while Rhys is used to losing out and shutting off his heart, something about Carter makes him want to reach for the unreachable. After all, Carter is the first person he’s ever met that makes him believe in love, without a single doubt. Without A Doubt is the first book in a romantic, light-hearted, small town trilogy.

All You Touch

2021

When he prayed for an angel, this blond Norse god wasn’t what he was expecting… West Balkany lived his life by one rule: make your own luck. And that means fighting his slum lord when his building starts falling apart, forcing himself to finish school no matter how much he wants to quit, and most importantly, never do something as stupid as falling in love. Unfortunately, that last part isn’t so easy when his gorgeous one-night-stand who dragged him into a bar supply closet and made him see god, keeps turning up everywhere he goes. But he doesn’t have time for Jake—no matter how much he wants to. His father’s health is failing, his deli is barely getting by, and now he’s facing a massive legal suit against Larsen Property Management for trying to kick everyone out into the streets. He also knows that Jake is hiding something, and he’s pretty sure whatever it is, it’s enough to turn his life upside down. But Jake also makes him want to try, and that’s what scares him the most. Jakob Larsen spent his life running from the man his father always wanted him to be, but that all comes to a stop when the man announced he was leaving LPM. He finally has a chance to prove to both his brother and to St. James that he can turn Larsen Property Management around and do something good for the people his father has been tormenting all these years. The problem is, he’s just not quite sure how, when no one trusts him to do the right thing. And it doesn’t help that Jakob has found himself distracted, falling for a gorgeous, stoic deli owner who has no idea who he really is. All Jakob has ever wanted was to be truly loved, but now that he’s found the one person he could see himself growing old with, he has to face the truth: everything they have is based on a lie. Will he ever be a man worthy of forgiveness, or will he have to face the fact that everything he touches turns to dust? All You Touch is the second book in the low-angst, humorous, steamy series, Love Starts Here. It contains no cheating, and a happily ever after.

Who We Were

2021

"Don't leave the house, don't talk to the paparazzi, don't answer your phone unless it's me, and do not- whatever you do- attempt to post about this on social media." Life isn’t supposed to be this complicated when you’re an Oscar winner…right? So what if he has two names, and straddles the line between two worlds. Adan Balil—also known as Bowen Phillips—has made his comeback, and he’s not ready to let go. If only those strangers hadn’t stolen his room key. If only their recording hadn’t been live. If only he hadn’t been wearing panties. Running away isn’t the smartest thing he’s ever done, but then again, neither is pretending to be someone he isn’t for the ridiculously good looking man next door. And it wouldn’t be so bad, pretending to be the former professor’s professional cuddler, if he wasn’t starting to dream about a future with him. Noah Jordan is nothing short of perfect in Adan’s eyes, and he’s starting to wonder if maybe giving up his celebrity life might just be the solution to all of his problems. He just has to convince Noah that in spite of all the mess that comes with his past, Adan’s love is worth it. Who We Were is the third book in the light-angst, humorous, steamy series, Love Starts Here. It features an asexual awakening, a celebrity running from a scandal, a professional cuddler who isn’t much of a professional at all, an actor trying to figure out who he is and what he wants, and an ex-professor who is trying to figure out where he fits in the world.
