Cocky Earl book cover

Cocky Earl

2020

An honorable Earl, an American Girl, and one lost bet that changes everything. Miss Charley Jackson didn’t want to sail to England. The British are stuffy, and arrogant, and think far too highly of themselves. Particularly, the ones who referred to themselves as Lords. Julian Wellstone, the Earl of Westerley, never walked away from a bet but should have known his luck would someday run out. He should have known a time would come when the gambling tables would turn against him. Which is exactly what happened when he played “one more hand” and lost the game of a lifetime to American Whiskey King, Mr. Daniel Jackson. Jules has no choice but to honor the bet and court the man’s daughter—a chit who managed to get under his skin from the moment he met her. But honor is everything. Until love deals him a new hand. And once the lines are blurred, all bets are off. Will he fold and walk away, or will he ante up his heart and risk everything for the love of a lifetime?

Cocky Baron

2020

Lady Bethany Wellstone’s season in London was cut short when her father is killed in a duel. She believes it is a sign—a sign that she was never meant to marry. Besides, no one can ever live up to the man she’s secretly loved for most of her life—a man who also happens to be one of her brother’s closest friends. “Chase” the Baron of Chaswick, is far too much of a rake to notice the likes of Bethany. Aside from being the most beautiful man she’s ever known, he’s charming, kind and all a woman could ever want. She’ll suffer her unrequited love from the sidelines. It ought to be enough. And it is.

If Lady Tabetha Wellstone can land a duke for a husband, she'll have fulfilled her destiny once and for all...so there is no way she’ll allow herself to fall for Stone Spencer—a mere Mister—even if he is tall, dark and incredibly handsome. As the loser of a bet, Stone Spencer, second son of the Earl of Ravensdale, “wins” the distinctive honor of watching out for his good friend Lord Westerley’s youngest sister for the duration of the spring season.

Cocky Brother

2020

Mr. Peter Spencer isn't interested in anything but his music, until, that is, a most unlikely lady touches his soul. She reminds him of a perfectly made violin that's languished untuned for far too long. Unfortunately, she also intimidates the hell out of him. Lady Starling has lost hope and faith in everything around her. Love only betrays, it never fulfills its promise. Can Peter convince her to trust her heart or will she turn her back on a future with the man of her dreams? Cocky Brother was initially published in December 2020 under the title Mayfair Maiden. This Cocky Brother version includes bonus content, and it is Book 4 of the Regency Cocky Gents series. The hero, Peter Spencer, is Stone's―AKA Cocky Mister's―brother. It can be read as a standalone or with the series. I hope those of you who read the first version love the new scenes as much as I do!

What happens when a lady breaks the rules? Felicity Brightley is the most genteel of ladies. Raised to marry the Earl of Westerley, she’s never failed to follow the dictates of society.

So when he stumbles upon Felicity, devastated by the betrayal at the hands of one of Manti’s closest friends, he takes it upon himself to comfort her. With a single kiss, and then another—until a storm of passion ignites between them—a storm that threatens to land them both in scandal. Because breaking the rules comes with a price. Will that price be a lifetime of regret, or is it fate’s serendipitous design for their happily ever after? Only one way to find out...

Cocky Marquess

2021

A Fake Courtship that becomes all-too-real... The Marquess of Greystone is responsible for carrying on his family’s name, and he’s determined to fulfill his duty. He will marry a proper lady, of a proper lineage, and produce an heir. He’s even gone so far as to obtain permission to court Lady Isabella, the debutante he’s decided would make an excellent marchioness. But first, as a favor to his friend, the Baron of Chaswick, he’s promised to assist in easing the man’s illegitimate sister’s entrance into society. A trip around a lake in a rowboat and a drive through Hyde Park ought to be enough to help the chit feel welcome. Miss Diana Jones believed her brother’s title would pave the way for her entrance into society, but gaining the acceptance of the ton is not so simple as that. When her brother’s friend rows her around the lake, and another gentleman takes notice, she cannot help but believe if the Marquess were to appear to be actually courting her, she’d have no trouble at all attracting a suitable husband. Despite Lord Greystone’s advanced age of nine and twenty, he is lofty, proper, and a little stuffy. He’s the perfect man to pretend that she’s captured his heart! And, of course, he will help her; he’s one of her brother’s best friends. What begins as a game of pretend turns both of their plans upside down, when their feigned affection blossoms into genuine feelings neither bargained for. Lust. Joy. Love? Will the marquess and Diana overcome their differences, or will those differences keep them from knowing the love of a lifetime?

Cocky Butler

2021

A duke pretending to be a butler and a very suspicious spinster realize that choosing love isn’t as easy as one might think… “The loser must perform butler duties for the winner throughout the Season this spring.” The Duke of Blackheart should never have accepted the wager. A foolish drunken night of games had led to an uncomfortable promise, but after considerable planning and a good deal of delegating, he’d found the charade almost too easy… Or so he’d thought, until Lord Greystone’s spinster cousin arrives, lips pinched in disapproval, eyes filled with suspicion, with the potential to spoil everything. Miss Violet Faraday had come to London for one reason only—to assist in launching her niece into society. She did not come in hopes of landing a husband for herself, nor had she expected to come face to face with her tragic past. Most of all, she had not planned on becoming extraordinarily fascinated with Mr. Cockfield, her cousin’s charming, arrogant, and ridiculously good-looking butler. He is a servant and she is a lady… anything beyond a mild flirtation can only lead to heartbreak…

Married to the same man for over 25 years, I am a mother to three children and two Miniature Wiener dogs. After owning a business and experiencing considerable success, my husband and I got caught in the financial crisis and lost everything in 2008; our business, our home, even our car. At this point, I put my B.A. in Poly Sci to use and took work as a waitress and bartender (Insert irony). Unwilling to give up on a professional life, I simultaneously went back to college and obtained a degree in Energy Management. And then the energy market dropped off. And then my dog died. I can only be grateful for this series of unfortunate events, for, with nothing to lose and completely demoralized, I sat down and began to write the romance novels which had until then, existed only my imagination. After publishing over twenty novels now, with one having been nominated for RWA’s Distinguished ™RITA Award in 2019, I am happy to tell you that I have finally found my place in life.
