Paladin's Hell
2018
I was nineteen when I became Jayden’s knight in shining armour, her Paladin. At only fourteen, she developed a teenage crush on me, the man who rescued her.
I gave her time to grow, waiting for her feelings to mature. As years, when I was forbidden to touch her, passed, I never doubted she was mine. I just wasn’t allowed to show it.
Circumstances send us to Colorado, away from the restrictions and over-protective brothers. At last we have a chance to be together.
What could be better?
What could be worse?
A new club. A new life. Out of my depth, I don’t fit in.
A different president and his old lady who’ve been married thirty-six years. That their marriage is on shaky ground spills over into how they treat us. For some reason, Hellfire and Moira want to force Jayden and I apart.
Jay and I are just beginning. Or, is it the end?
After all this time, will we make it work? Or have the years I’ve spent waiting been wasted?

Demon's Angel
2019
Demon
Before Nathan died, Violet had been the annoying child who’d followed us around everywhere. As a teenager, she’d developed an annoying crush on me.
My promise to my best friend had been to watch over his little sister, a debt I considered paid when she was grown and settled out of state.
Ten years later she’s back in my town, this time with a baby in tow. Now twenty-five, she’s the one who’s got me twisted up in knots.
But she’s Nathan’s sister. She needs help, I can give it—as a replacement big brother of course.
She’d be horrified if she knew what I’d really like to do to her.
Violet
It’s embarrassing to remember last time I’d seen Demon I’d been an incorrigible flirt.
When we meet again, I realise my feelings have matured, but not changed over the years. I still want him.
He doesn’t see me that way, treating me just like he would a sister. Stepping into Nathan’s shoes to help me out of trouble.
I do need someone’s help. But it hurts that he’s only offering to keep a promise made to my dead brother.
I’ve become involved in a war. Now, because of the debt Demon thinks he owes, I’m dragging the Satan’s Devils into it with me.
But having to deal with unreciprocated feelings is nothing compared with keeping my son safe and out of the clutches of his real father.

Devil's Due
2019
When I left everything behind to go nomad, I didn’t expect to run into trouble before I stepped foot in the clubhouse I was aiming for.
I didn’t expect to save a woman, not just once but multiple times.
I didn’t expect to pit myself against the US Marshals or another MC.
I’d just extracted myself from one relationship, I didn’t want another.
Sometimes what we get is what we never go looking for.
How this will work out, I’ve no idea. Would I survive on the outside, no longer being a member of an MC? Could I give up everything, even my identity to be with her? Or can I ask my brothers to step in and save us both?

Devil's Dilemma
2019
Melissa
I wasn’t the type of woman a biker would go for. I’m a homemaker type, not adventurous or bold.
I fought it hard, but he dragged me into his world, and I found I liked it. Loved the family vibe, how everyone would gather around to protect what was theirs.
Until, he vanished. Disappeared off the face of the earth. He’d pulled me in, now he’s gone. The only explanation for him not coming back is that he’s dead.
Pyro
She wasn’t mine, and never could be. She’d been claimed by someone else. The perfect woman who I could never have as my own.
I stepped up when she needed someone beside her. Held her when she needed a friend. That my brother was dead was something I’d help her accept.
The truth though, that hit the hardest. How could any of us deal with the knowledge that there was something worse than death?

Ink's Devil
2019
Ink
The almost-as-tall as me girl with the blue hair intrigued me. As is my normal practice, I’d give her one night, but that’s all. Except, I found, it wasn’t enough. I should have kept to my own rules, but I didn’t. I went back.
It’s not forever, I’m not that kind of man. She’s not for me, she’s a citizen and not someone to be pulled into our underworld.
Except as I found out, I didn’t need to pull her in, she was already there.
Now I’m sitting in a jail cell when it should be her here, not me.
Beth
I saw Ink and wanted him, just as simple as that. While I knew there was no future with the biker, I was sure I could guard my heart and not fall for him.
My life was normal and uncomplicated. Until my estranged brother dumped me in a middle of a mess, a fiasco which ended up with Ink taking the rap.
Why did he sacrifice himself? Surely he wouldn’t be in jail if he didn’t care?
But whether he does or not doesn’t matter if he’s going to be there for the best part of his life.
Ink’s looking at a thirty year sentence and It’s all my fault.

Devil's Spawn
2020
Vanna
While serving as a Marine, my husband survived when an explosion took out the transport he was travelling in. He lived but suffered a traumatic brain injury which wiped his memory.
What do you do when your husband doesn’t recognise you or his young son? What if living together is doing neither of you any favours? After two years of trying and we still weren’t more than strangers, I accepted defeat and we parted.
Cas, our son, has grown into an unruly teenager, getting into trouble and
needing a father’s guiding hand. At my wits’ end, I set out to find his dad, hoping after all these years, he might have his memory back, or at least, be persuaded to play some part in the life of the son he didn’t accept he had.
Mace
Lizard had been right to worry about the girl wanting her ‘Property of’ tat removed. Putting a patch on someone has meaning in our world. Before we covered it up, we needed to discover who had claimed her as theirs.
I’m a confirmed bachelor, but when we found out who’d put their name on her back, I was one of the first to offer my protection to her, and the kid she brought along with her.

Manda Mellett
Author · 40 books
Manda’s life's always seemed a bit weird, starting with a childhood that even today she’s still trying to make sense of, then losing her parents in the late teens. Going from the tragic to the bizarre, who else could be unlucky enough to have had two car accidents, neither her fault, one involving a nun, and another involving a police woman? There isn’t enough space to list everything that’s happened to Manda, or what she’s learned from it. But by using the rich fabric of her personal life, psychology degree, varied work experiences, and amazing characters she’s met, Manda is able to populate her books with believable in-depth characters and enjoys pitting them against situations which challenge them. Her books are full of suspense, twists and turns and the unexpected. Manda lives in the beautiful countryside of Essex in the UK, the area’s claim to fame being the Wilkin’s Jam Factory at nearby Tiptree. She can usually find jars of jam which remind her of home wherever she goes. As well as writing books and reading, Manda loves walking her dogs and keeping fit. She lives with her husband of over 30 years, who, along with her son, is her greatest fan and supporter. Manda is thankful that one of the more unusual, and at the time unpleasant, turns her life took, now enables her to spend her time writing. Confirming, in her view, every cloud has a silver lining.
