Anger

2021

The truth doesn’t always set you free... Theo This isn’t the life I wanted. Being a reporter for my family’s media conglomerate instead of a pro hockey player was never my plan. And yet, here I am with no other prospects. What I do have is anger. The all-consuming, isolating kind. Until I meet Amelia. She calms my mind, soothes my soul, ignites my body. Still … I sometimes wonder if fate brought her here to save me—or break me once and for all. Amelia All I ever wanted was to be a journalist. Working for an almost tabloid is not ideal. But for now, it’s the best I can do. I won’t lose my integrity, though. I’ll never be a liar. Which makes my new assignment that much harder. To keep my job, I need to use Theo for a story. It helps that my byline doesn’t match the name by which he knows me. Still … I like him. I don’t want to betray him. And worst of all, he makes me want to extend our relationship past my policy of one-night-stands. When the truth is spilled, will Theo and Amelia be able to take a shot at love? Or will their romance end up as nothing more than yesterday’s news? ANGER, book #2 in the Sins of the Fathers series, is an angsty, steamy, celebrity contemporary romance that can be read as a standalone, and features a guaranteed happily ever after. Do NOT read ANGER unless you’re ready to be swept off your feet by an emotionally-charged alpha male, to root for a damaged yet fierce heroine, and to fight for the belief that love conquers all.

Pride

2022

Breaking News: NYC’s Golden Boy Takes A Walk This “Breaking News” about Xander Turner hardly deserves such a title. Then again, the mere mention of Xander’s name has always made my ladybits tingle, no matter that he never gave me a second glance when we were in school. But when the news anchor announces he’s out of the high-profile marketing position in his now-infamous family’s business, my wayward thoughts shift to my struggling PR agency. I want him. Ahem, to save my firm. Much to my shock, Xander accepts my job offer. Not only does his sexy face and business savvy bring in the clients, but he adds a layer of fun and creativity I hadn’t expected. He even makes the transition from uptown shark to downtown employee seem effortless. Soon I come to realize that Xander’s more than just his looks. A hell of a lot more. When the paparazzi catch wind of our unlikely pairing, will their ruthless pursuit give my agency more exposure, or will NYC’s dog-eat-dog media industry tear apart all we’ve built?

For as long as Arell Rivers remembers, she has been lost in a book. During her senior year in college, she picked up a romance novel … and instantly was hooked. She started writing her first novel, No One to Hold, because the characters were screaming at her to do so. The story started coming out in Arell’s dreams and attacking her in the shower, so she took to the computer to shut them up. But they kept talking. Born and raised in New Jersey, Arell has what some may call a “checkered past.” Prior to discovering her passion for writing romance, she practiced law, was a wedding and event planner and even dabbled in marketing. She lives with a very supportive husband and two mischievous cats. When not in her writing cave, Arell can be found making dinner in the crock pot, working out with Shaun T or hitting the beach. She hopes you enjoy her stories about flawed men, strong women and the passions that ignite!
