Sterling Secrets
2022
"I’m alone in New York City, an ocean away from my clan in England. This is the price I’m paying for an aged soothsayer naming me the woman to bring forth the most powerful Lycan ever known. Now a ruthless gangster wants me for his bride, and all I want is a life of my own. So I ran away, straight into a random encounter with a former FBI agent turned private investigator named Ashley Sterling. The magic coming off of him is more powerful than I’ve ever sensed. On top of that, he has premonitions–and he’s handsome. I’m attracted, terrified and intrigued at the same time. Can he help me?"
"My best friend is a chick magnet. Me, I’m more of a trouble magnet. Okay, half the time as an investigator I go looking for it, but as soon as I catch her eyes on the subway, all the bells in my head ring. The woman from my premonition is right in front of me. She’s in trouble, on the run. Olivia is also beautiful and sensed my magic immediately. How can I not be intrigued? I’ve stepped in to help her, even though every signal in my brain tells me that by doing so, my life will never be the same."
Trigger warnings: adult content and language. Sex on the page, mentions of violence.

Sterling Justice
Motion to Strike
2023
Jack:
As a criminal defense attorney, I’ve seen my share of gruesome crime scene photos. Yet nothing could have prepared me for finding my mentor’s butchered body in his office. It’s a nightmare stuck on a loop in my head. Now, I’m looking over my shoulder, wondering if he died in my place or if I might be next. The last thing I need is a distraction, and that’s what the sexy Channel 2 reporter, Audrey Collins, is. Something about her captivates my attention and convinces me to investigate. But as clues come to light, it becomes clear there's something sinister lurking in the darkness, and I’ll need every trick I’ve ever learned to keep us safe—even if she's determined to charge into danger.
Ash:
My best friend Jack is a chick magnet, and a sucker for a pretty face. I don’t need my premonitions to know some woman will be his undoing. Me, I’m more wary—my demon father didn’t teach me that, the FBI did. But my caution evaporates the moment I see the dark-haired woman from my premonition on the subway. She’s in trouble, on the run from a Lycan gangster. Olivia is also a beautiful wolf shifter and senses my magic immediately. How can I not be intrigued? I’ve stepped in to help her, determined to keep her safe, even though every signal in my brain tells me that by doing so, my life will never be the same. But in the midst of helping Olivia, Jack's law mentor is murdered and a nosy reporter is dragging him into the investigation. I've got to do some investigating myself before someone I care about gets hurt. Now, it’s on my shoulders to keep everyone safe while also protecting knowledge of werewolves and magic from the world.

Unchained
2022
Jack Mathers was my first lust. Hot, older, completely off-limits and out of my league–or so I thought. Turns out the feeling is mutual. Wanting him has never been the problem, my awakening abilities are. When I'm not careful my kiss can kill a man. If I give in to the attraction between us and lose control, Jack will be the one to suffer.
Sexy little redhead Tatum Sterling is a fire in my blood that I can't extinguish, but getting involved with her isn't a smart idea. Not only is she my best friend's little sister, she also has abilities that could kill me and a million dollar price on her head.
The money? That would be easy to claim, if I wanted to give her up. The woman, however, that’s the real challenge. Bringing her under my control would be the thrill of a lifetime–if I don’t get myself killed.
Unchained contains hot graphic sex on-page, graphic/foul language, a D/s power exchange relationship, a bit of kink, a lot of lust, and a guaranteed, satisfactory happy ending. It is book one of a series but can be read as a standalone story.
Lust to love, Domination/Submission, Demon/Succubus, Mystery, Suspense, Awakening powers

Bound
2023
She loves me, she loves me not. Every new relationship will be tested, and Jack Mathers and Tatum Sterling's is no exception. As the newest leader of the NYC organization tasked with safeguarding the magical community, Jack finds himself faced with an impossible dilemma. Devastatingly handsome film star Malcolm Howard has fallen prey to a strange magical attack and Tatum's powers are the best fit to save him. Tension mounts as Jack weighs his options. Will he deny a plea for help? Or will he fulfill his duty and send Tatum to the aid of a man who might be out to make her his own, placing his trust in his woman—even with her seductive succubus powers barely contained? Tatum loves Jack with all her heart, but she can’t help but worry about his wellbeing. He's not been himself lately, and she fears the magical protection tattooed onto his chest might not be enough to protect him from her life-force-consuming hunger. If the magic isn't enough, what will she do to keep Jack safe from becoming a victim of her power? How will she get the energy she needs without Jack to sustain her?
Bound is the follow-up to Unchained and continues the love and adventures of attorney Jack Mathers and his girlfriend, demon hybrid Tatum Sterling, along with other favorites like Malcolm Howard, Ash Sterling, and reporter Audrey Collins.
The story contains strong language, adult situations, spicy love scenes of a more graphic nature, and plenty of action and adventure
