Everybody Breaks

2021

Emilia Gallo knows darkness. She has been abused and controlled by it for her entire life. Trapped in the clutches of an evil, criminal stepfather, with only her selfish, weak mother on her side she is alone and constantly afraid of what each new horror-filled day will bring. She has learnt from a young age to survive in this hellish existence, but when her stepfather lands the ultimate blow – selling her to the Albanian Mafia – she knows it’s only a matter of time before her monsters truly win the battle she has spent her whole life fighting, and break her. But an unexpected opportunity for escape gives Emilia the chance she needs to flee her fate and she grabs onto it with both hands. Armed with very little cash, few belongings and a letter that details a possible hope for her future, she ventures into a world she has been sheltered from and knows very little of. There she finds new friends, a job and a home she can feel safe in for the first time in her life, but what she really wants is family – someone to love her. When she tracks down Nico, the brother she never knew existed, she finds that family she had always longed for, and so much more. Lincoln, Parker and Jax – Nico’s brothers and teammates – are instantly attracted to Emilia from the moment they meet her, and she falls for them too. They make her feel safe and whole in a way she has never known and can’t explain. She wants them all – needs them – but these retired Navy SEALs are not men who share. With her monsters close on her heels, a confusing attraction to three guys, and the trauma of her horror filled past making a normal life impossible, Emilia finds her new beginning isn’t all she had hoped it would be. She thought she had left behind the danger and fear of her past, but as it stalks closer she realizes she can never escape it. Will she be strong enough to fight it with her new found family, and the men she is fast falling for, at her side?

Break My Fall

2023

Maddie Foster is trapped. Trapped in a marriage with a man who despises her. Trapped in a city that she can never call home. Trapped in a never ending cycle of fear for the safety of herself and her three year old daughter, Willow. She knows the only option to protect herself, Willow, and her unborn child is to flee, but she has no funds, no car, no plan, and no one in her life left to help her. Five years of marriage to her abusive, control freak husband has made sure of that. As kids, Hunter Coleman, Cameron Lewis, and Kai Chen considered themselves Maddie’s protectors. All foster kids, they met at a youth group when they were ten years old, and the rest, as they say, was history. Until one fateful night, Maddie’s sixteenth birthday, changed everything. The guys disappeared without a word and left Maddie alone and devastated. When a chance meeting finds Maddie and Hunter crossing paths once again, Hunter is enraged by what he finds has happened to the girl he has always been in love with. He tries to swoop in and rescue her, just as he did when she was younger, but Maddie will never forgive him or his brothers for leaving her. She walks away, leaving Hunter powerless to help her. But he won’t give up. They never should have left Maddie that night, and there’s no way he’ll leave her again now. He enlists the help of an old military buddy, Nico Gallo, to help watch over Maddie while he and his brothers come up with a plan to take back the girl they have never stopped loving. But when Maddie’s violent husband takes things too far, Nico has no choice but to step in and get Maddie and her daughter to safety. Even if that safety is the home of the three men Maddie despises for abandoning her. Can she ever forgive the guys for leaving her that night? Can they earn back her trust in the process of caring for and protecting her and her daughter? Will they ever get to call her theirs? _This is book three in the 'Milite' series, but can be read as a standalone.
