Review & Description
When all hell breaks loose, there’s only one way to run. Morgan Hennessy is a high-powered, North Carolina attorney who’s spent the past five years trying to forget her failed marriage to someone she’d once considered to be her best friend. Just when she thinks she’s gotten things together, the attentions of a colleague turn obsessive. Alive after one vicious attack, Morgan knows only one person can protect her now. Her ex-husband. The one man who still owns her heart. Evan Hennessy, the small town sheriff of Skyler, North Carolina, has never forgotten the love he shared with his ex-wife and when she returns to his town, needing protection, he can’t refuse her. To do so would mean denying his own heart. And when she needs him to reassure her she’s as sexy as she once was despite her scars, Evan will do that, too. She walked out on him once and he’s been waiting five years for her return. Hell itself won’t be able to tear her out of his arms this time.When all hell breaks loose, there’s only one way to run.

They came from the West
Seven fighters to the end
One stunning blonde warrior
Leading six hard-ass men
The Alexa's Travels series is a dark fantasy quest into the nuclear wilderness, where Bone Dust is the currency and nightmares stalk man's roads in search of prey.
Years after the nuclear war of 2012 has devastated the world, a group of survivors have come out of the radiation zones in the West. On an impossible quest to find those who came before them, these warriors follow the remnants of Safe Haven and let nothing stand in their way.
Safe Haven: A place of safety and light, of honor and duty. A Refuge for survivors.
*A place of darkness and death, where murder and magic go hand in hand.
Alexa is a leader of men. She culled her companions from the dwindling herd of mankind because she sensed they alone might have the strength to make the journey and each battle fought at her side tightens their bonds. For Alexa, their quest is about more than finding a safe place. It's about the search for her missing family. Determined to succeed, she gathered the strongest survivors she could find and set about tracking down the impossible legend. Safe Haven Refugee Camp.

Stacey Danson, lived through and beyond horrific child abuse.
This book tells of her brutal beginnings, the streets of Sydney at the age of eleven were preferable to the hell she endured at home. She ran, and those streets became her home for five years.
She was alone, ill, and afraid.
Stacey also had an unshakeable belief that she would do more than just survive her life.
She would not allow her future to be determined by the horrors of her childhood.
She reached out for something different; there had to be more to life; if she could only find it.
She had a dream of a life where pain and humiliation had no place.
She was determined to find that life.

Review & Description
Eduardo was gorgeous. Eduardo fancied her. Eduardo was attached.
So why was she naked in his arms?
This story contains very explicit descriptions of consenting adults indulging in passionate sex.
This story is just over 6,300 words. Ideal for reading in a quiet moment between meetings or at the end of the day when you want to relax.
Excerpt:
“Just say you will come into my tent with me tonight,” he said softly. “Let us sleep together like that under the moonlight, within reach of each other. Just close like that. Nothing more will happen, I promise you.”
His eyes were mysterious in the darkness, hidden by shadows. But his voice was vibrant and warm and there was something in his tone that thrilled me. “All right,” I said. I was shocked at myself, surprised, puzzled and a little afraid.

Review & Description
When thirty-year-old English teacher Anna Emerson is offered a job tutoring T.J. Callahan at his family's summer rental in the Maldives, she accepts without hesitation; a working vacation on a tropical island trumps the library any day.
T.J. Callahan has no desire to leave town, not that anyone asked him. He's almost seventeen and if having cancer wasn't bad enough, now he has to spend his first summer in remission with his family - and a stack of overdue assignments - instead of his friends.
Anna and T.J. are en route to join T.J.'s family in the Maldives when the pilot of their seaplane suffers a fatal heart attack and crash-lands in the Indian Ocean. Adrift in shark-infested waters, their life jackets keep them afloat until they make it to the shore of an uninhabited island. Now Anna and T.J. just want to survive and they must work together to obtain water, food, fire, and shelter. Their basic needs might be met but as the days turn to weeks, and then months, the castaways encounter plenty of other obstacles, including violent tropical storms, the many dangers lurking in the sea, and the possibility that T.J.'s cancer could return. As T.J. celebrates yet another birthday on the island, Anna begins to wonder if the biggest challenge of all might be living with a boy who is gradually becoming a man.
