Carnage and blood. Black leather gloves and too many lilies. Time can swallow her whole, and it’s almost up. WELLS. She’s my mission. My prize. My obsession. Ivy Kingston is the most wanted woman in the world for reasons she is completely oblivious to, reasons I intend to capitalize on. She needs a husband to receive her inheritance, so I’m on the hunt for a wife. As long as it’s her. I’m not who she thinks I am. But she has no idea who she really is either. I’ll be her groom. Her keeper. Her lover. And quite possibly her demise. IVY. People often underestimate me. They shouldn’t. Gavin Wells is dreamy and delicious. Dark and mysterious. His world is exactly where I want to be. But he’s got me in a choke hold of smoke and mirrors. Someone should have warned him that burning ivy releases toxic spores. Because I’m the spark who can reduce him to ashes. less

Never let them see. Always keep them guessing. Play their game. Drowning and rising. Burning and dying. Corruption and chaos. A heart in a box. Snick. Flick. Flame. LIAM. She’s my secret. My answer. My Ace. I’m a cabal leader for KORT—not a man who gets involved. Never for more than a night. Certainly not with Celeste Carver—a Daddy’s girl whose biggest problem is which politician to marry. All I want is a taste. But the pretentious princess burrows under my skin. And I’m tired of being polite... moreNever let them see. Always keep them guessing. Play their game. Drowning and rising.

Never for more than a night. Certainly not with Celeste Carver—a Daddy’s girl whose biggest problem is which politician to marry. All I want is a taste. But the pretentious princess burrows under my skin. And I’m tired of being polite. Once she’s claimed, there’s no going back. Not without ending up six feet under. CELESTE. The Carver name comes with expectations. A legacy. But no matter how hard I try or how much I hate him, my attention swings to Liam Graves. Forbidden fruit. He’s all golden god meets dark angel. Unhinged trouble. Good thing I have a skilled poker face and a steel determination. But in a blink, it all spins out of control. Freedom is captivity. Dead is alive. Choice is a butchered pipe dream. Unless I’m the one holding all the cards. While the novel can stand alone, significant character development and important details about the character’s lives will be missed without first reading BURNING IVY. What to expect:. ✔️Jealous/Possessive Hero. ✔️Mafia/Secret Society. ✔️Found Family. ✔️Forbidden/ Secret Relationship. ✔️Close Proximity. ✔️He falls first and falls Hard. ✔️Action/Suspense. ✔️Touch her and Die. ✔️Praise. less

Live. Leap. Pretend. Forget. Drowning in darkness. Sentenced to silence. Fields and rain. Cathedral to cage. Crunch. Squeak. Blood. TY. She’s my never. My fortress. My moon. Rena Noire—the one I’m not allowed to touch. As a Cabal leader with a sordid past, hell is all I’ve ever had to offer. So, I’ve kept my distance from the menacing angel. But the sand is blowing everywhere, the line growing fainter. And as danger closes in, all I see is her. My forbidden. My compass... moreLive. Leap. Pretend. Forget. Drowning in darkness.

As a Cabal leader with a sordid past, hell is all I’ve ever had to offer. So, I’ve kept my distance from the menacing angel. But the sand is blowing everywhere, the line growing fainter. And as danger closes in, all I see is her. My forbidden. My compass. The forever I’ll burn for. But it all comes back to one wrong choice. RENA. As the youngest Noire sibling and heiress of our hospitality empire, I’m destined to be the heart, but never the head. A princess locked in a bell tower. That would be fine if Tytan Reynolds would storm my castle, but he’s determined to stay on his side of the moat. My far-fetched fantasy and my brothers’ friend. But when my world topples upside down, I glimpse the heat in his gaze. I run. He chases. He wants to shield. I belong to the dark. Once we jump, the abyss with my tortured sailor is nothing like I expected. Bound and gagged. Bullets of freedom. Time is ticking. Nothing left to lose. less

You’re either the hunter or the hunted. The lion or the lamb. Bound on an altar. Belts of deceit. Tangerine skies. Taunted by time. Scorch. Stack. Salt. Gage. She’s my nightmare. My weakness. My Wicked. Ainsley Morelli was everything I craved, the breath in my lungs, my only home. But she sent me to die, and threw dirt on my grave. That was another life. When she had the upper hand. In this one, I’m the lead enforcer for KORT. And she’s on the run and in my backyard... moreYou’re either the hunter or the hunted. The lion or the lamb. Bound on an altar. Belts of deceit. Tangerine skies. Taunted by time. Scorch. Stack. Salt. Gage. She’s my nightmare. My weakness. My Wicked. Ainsley Morelli was everything I craved, the breath in my lungs, my only home. But she sent me to die, and threw dirt on my grave. That was another life. When she had the upper hand. In this one, I’m the lead enforcer for KORT. And she’s on the run and in my backyard. I’ve waited years to ruin her and her family. Her smoking gun might do it for me. No need to rush. I’ve always enjoyed playing with my prey. Ainsley. My life as a Morelli has been full of duplicities. Betrayal traded for loyalty. Becoming a fugitive for freedom. And Gage Porter was at the center of every unraveling thread. Only he wasn’t Gage then. And he didn’t survive—or so I thought. Until a man three times the size of the boy with amber eyes pins me to a wall in the shelter where I took refuge. That tracks. I sought protection and became a prisoner. But times are changing. In this story, the burnt offering rises to be the butcher. Freed by the very hands that counted my fleeting breaths. Until the ticking stops. Family means sacrifice. This is book four in The KORT Series. It’s best to start with book one, BURNING IVY, available now in KU, paperback, & Audible in DUET narration!
