Come To Daddy

2021

I am not a good man. Former enforcer to New York City’s most prominent crime families? Absolutely. Now successful CEO? Yes. But a good man? Not on your life. There is no room for light or goodness in my carefully ordered days. Going legit means longer hours, memos, and conference calls, but it's worth it to rule my new world. I don’t intend to give even an inch of ground to my competitors. That includes a grueling month-long work schedule—-a move that has my second in command enforcing a weekend of mandatory fun. But the kind of fun I enjoy isn’t the kind you mention in polite conversation, or in broad daylight. My weekend of letting go can only be done in one place—The Cairn, New York City’s most exclusive BDSM club. It’s within the walls of The Cairn that I let my urges take control for the precious forty-eight hours I’m allowed. I might not be a good man, but I am good Dom. A Daddy Dom to be specific. And it’s time to let Daddy out to play. Come To Daddy is the first installment of The Cairn series and features a dark and sexy encounter between a Daddy Dom and a lonely Little in need of a firm hand, if only for one night. Enjoy this sexy as hell look at what kind of man, Dom, and Daddy, Lawson Sokolov is while he gives his chosen play partner a once-in-a-lifetime encounter. He may not be this Little’s perfect HEA, but he is a perfect Daddy Dom. Lawson is not a man that believes in love, and his novella is not about a forever kind of love but never fear, Lawson will be brought to his knees by a kinky as hell happily-ever-after when he meets his forever Little in Honey, Honey, an utterly dark and romantic novel of love and angst.

Honey, Honey

2021

Of All The Coffee Shops In New York City… Honey… My name is Honey Martinez. I live in New York City. I make coffee. I’m not a fan of staying in any one place for too damn long. I have a simple life and a few friends. Nothing special, but that’s because I’ve made it that way. My life has been lived in the shadows of my past, and it’s a past I’ve worked hard to run from. Well, everything except for one place—The Cairn Club. New York City’s most exclusive and luxe BDSM club. It is a playground I’ve thrived in, a place where I am known, desired, and indulged. The freedom of the Cairn Club sustains me through my mundane every day, but all of that changes when Lawson Sokolov enters my world. Lawson… She’s the woman I shouldn’t want, but from the second I see her, Honey is all that I need. She’s sweet, open, and trusting in a way the city eats up and spits out. Every Dominant instinct in my body demands I protect her, keep her close, and that’s exactly what I intend to do—even though a smarter man would run from Honey. In a world like mine, there’s no room for softness and soft is all Honey calls up in me. She makes me weak, but it’s the like I never thought to experience, not after what I’ve done to get to where I am. I’ve got blood on my hands, but Honey’s smile, her touch, the woman’s slightest kiss washes it all away and makes me believe that I can be a man worth a damn again. What will happen when this couple is caught up in the inner workings of the Cairn? When the all-powerful Zeus takes an interest in Honey and Lawson is asked to play the role of protector, her shield against the man that would see her fall? Will they fight their attraction, or will they take a leap of faith and give in to the kinkiest desires of their hearts and find their own brand of happiness as Daddy and Little? Honey, Honey is for fans of Midnight Poppy Land and anyone that goes weak for a gruff hero going sweet over their heroine of choice. This novel a darkly sweet and steamy BDSM romance novel with age play, DDlg, spanking, dirty talk, restraints, impact play, and a creepy lurking ex. All sex is explicitly consensual and deliciously enjoyed by all involved. Read Honey, Honey, the first novel in the Cairn Series Duet, for an emotionally fulfilling, kinky, BDSM romance novel replete with a yummy HFN.

Lawson Sokolov, billionaire business mogul, a man people respected and feared in the city. Magazine covers featured his face, his name was as good as any black card, but to me? To me, he was simply my Dom. Mine. Law... There was someone bothering my girl. Shitty texts and phone calls that had her looking over her shoulder. She was scared. That shit was not okay. Especially not when she was with me. I was her man but, more importantly, I was her Dom. She trusted me to keep her safe, happy, and cared for, which was exactly what I intended to do. Even if I didn’t get to keep my girl. One thing I knew…this wasn’t a happily ever after. Not yet. It couldn’t be for a woman like Honey. And I was going to fix it, even if I had to become the man I had once been to do so. Brutal. Unforgiving. Deadly. Lawson and Honey must face the pasts they’ve worked to escape and confront their darkest desires and deepest fears. And what of Zeus? More myth than man, and the master of the Cairn, he holds the key to unlocking Lawson and Honey's future, but will the price be too high? Can they find their own twisted happily ever after, or will their descent into the depths of the Cairn prove too much? CWs on author's website.

Sweet Rule

2023

Honey… What do you do when the man you loved was never really yours? What do you do when you find out it was all a lie? If you’re me. You run. Or at least, your first instinct is to, but it turns out the truth is a cage all it’s own and I’m trapped in a living nightmare I can’t get free of. Every day I lose a little piece of myself, and I don’t see how I’ll ever be the girl I was before him. Law… She was mine. All mine. But I lost her, and nothing will stop me from claiming her again. I was once New York City’s most feared enforcer. I was the beast they called in when the impossible needed doing, but I put that life aside. I made something of myself, I fought the ugly inside me and made myself into a man that could be what my girl needed. Except that man didn’t see the threat until it was too late, and now my girl’s gone but lucky for us, the beast never went away. It just slept. And now it wants her. Separated by forces neither anticipated, can Lawson and Honey find their way back together? Or will what they’ve become be the very thing that keeps the lovers apart even as their enemies fall around them? Find out in Sweet Rule the final chapter of Honey and Law’s love story. Trigger warnings to come on author’s website.
