Reckoning
2022
Vigilantes. Black widows. Femmes fatales. We’ve gone by many names, but our goal has remained the same: exact justice for those whom the system has failed. Working in the shadows, my life has become a book of secrets. But I prefer it that way. It keeps the people I care about safe from the evil that plagues this world. At least that was until an enigmatic, former Navy SEAL with as many secrets as I have, tore down my walls and painted a target on his own back in an effort to protect me. I didn’t want to get him involved in my world. But now that I have, I’ll need him in order to uncover the sinister plots of the organization I’ve been sent to destroy. I mean, a girl can’t take down the Russian mob alone, right?

Relentless
2023
Programmer Coder Hacker I uncover secrets no one wants me to find. Celebrities, international fugitives, even my neighbors. No one is off limits. All I need is a name and a location, and the dirty things they try to hide will suddenly come to light. My biggest fault? Believing I don’t need help, despite all the evidence to the contrary. And the one person capable of aiding me turns my body to Jell-O. I don’t want to rely on Isaac Hayes to help me solve this puzzle. But the pieces don’t fit together, and we’re running out of time. If I can’t set my pride aside and allow Isaac to help me, the ghosts of my past will take more from me than just my life.

Resurgence
2023
Soldiers of fortune. Hired guns. Mercenaries. We’re the ones who go into enemy territory when no one else will. It’s dangerous, it’s secretive, and we’re good at it. It takes a certain skill set to do my job, and distractions get in the way of doing it well. And meeting Thia Ames has become the biggest distraction of all. But when Thia is put up for auction on the black market, my team is tasked with her protection. She is my mission, and protecting her should be my sole focus. But the shadows that lurk behind her bright smile hint at a dark past that calls to the hero in me. I can’t afford to get involved. Not only am I almost twenty years older than her, but acting on my emotions could very well get us both killed. Her life hangs in the balance. I couldn’t save her before, but this time, I’ll do whatever it takes… or die trying. \
