Der fünfundvierzigjährige Englischprofessor Nathan Qells ist sehr gut darin, anderen das Gefühl zu geben, dass sie ihm wichtig sind. Was er allerdings nicht gut kann - sie in seinem Leben zu halten. Er ist ein netter Kerl, er empfindet nur nicht so wie andere Menschen. Deshalb ist ihm auch in der ganzen Zeit, in der er Michael, den Jungen von gegenüber, betreut hat, nie aufgefallen, dass sich dessen Onkel und Vormund, der Mafiaschläger Andreo Fiore, immer mehr in ihn verliebt hat.

Dreo hat größere Probleme, als Nate auf sich aufmerksam zu machen. Er zieht seinen Neffen groß und versucht, seinen zwielichtigen Job hinter sich zu lassen und seine eigene Firma zu gründen. Doch dieses Vorhaben wird erschwert, als mehrere Unterweltgrößen durch Anschläge aus dem Weg geräumt werden. Trotzdem ist Dreo immer noch versessen darauf, sich ein neues Leben aufzubauen – ein Leben mit Nate als Mittelpunkt. Ein Leben, das genauso ist, wie Nate es sich immer erträumt hat. Unglücklicherweise, waren diese Anschläge nur Teil einer großen Umstrukturierung, und die Liebe, die Dreo offensichtlich für Nate empfindet, bringt auch diesen in die Schusslinie.

Mangrove Stories

Hutch Crowley is well-liked in the small resort town of Mangrove—he’s got friends in his new neighbors, he’s the owner of the town grocery, and he’s building a community center—but he’s still unlucky at love. Every man he’s attracted to is either taken or simply not interested, including his best friend, Mike Rojas.

When Mike came to Mangrove two years ago, Hutch gave him a job and a place to stay in his guesthouse, where Mike has remained ever since. Despite the rumors circulating about them, Hutch knows Mike is straight and looking for the right woman. But his friends disagree, and after some hints to the contrary, even Hutch finally has to admit that maybe the rest of the town sees something he’s been missing. If Hutch wants to spend each sultry sunset with the man of his dreams, it might be time to figure out what’s going on with his best friend’s heart.

Fighting Instinct

L'Ange | Book Two

Only a privileged few know L’Ange’s head of security Arman de Soto is a shifter, and even fewer know he’s been systematically killing off a pack of werewolves. The reason for this vengeance is a secret Arman trusts with no one, quite the opposite of his obvious longtime pursuit of the château’s overseer, Linus Hobbes. Despite Arman’s reputation as a loner, the only thing he needs to complete his life is Linus. Predator and prey just don’t mix—but Arman won’t give him up.

Linus has lived alone for more than seven years, sheltered at L’Ange under an assumed name and hiding secrets of his own, including his terrifying attraction to the most dangerous man he’s ever met. Arman knows Linus should be afraid of the predator stalking him, but Linus is still drawn to him like a moth to a flame, no matter how much he tries to deny his instincts. It’s not until Linus’s past and Arman’s crusade exposes their secrets and opens L’Ange to attack that Arman realizes waiting any longer is a risk he just can’t take. So he’ll have to take his quest to the source of the threat in a gamble to protect L’Ange, Linus, and any future they might have together.

Tracy Brandt considers himself a lucky man. He has a wonderful family, good friends, and a dependable job. His love life, however, features a cheating ex who, though out of the house, is not yet out of the picture—with a past that just might get Tracy killed.

Homicide inspector Cord Nolan wants nothing more than to show his best friend’s little brother that he’s a reliable man, but to do that he’ll have to get Tracy to look past the player he used to be. It'll be a tough sell; reputation is everything, and Cord's is tarnished by his past indiscretions.

All Kinds of Tied Down

Marshals | Book One

Deputy US Marshal Miro Jones has a reputation for being calm and collected under fire.

As a marshal and a soldier, Ian’s expected to lead. But the power and control that brings Ian success and fulfillment in the field isn't working anywhere else. Ian’s always resisted all kinds of tied down, but having no home—and no one to come home to—is slowly eating him up inside. Over time, Ian has grudgingly accepted that going anywhere without his partner simply doesn't work. Now Miro just has to convince him that getting tangled up in heartstrings isn't being tied down at all.

As Roman becomes a man, he realizes what he wants—his bodyguard by his side and in his bed. Unfortunately, Quade can’t seem to see past the kid Roman once was to the man he has become, certain Roman’s feelings are merely misplaced gratitude.

As a psychopath shifter staking claim as alpha draws Quade back home, and Quade feels compelled to heed the call, he may be forced to make a choice he never anticipated.
