UPDATE: January 2023 - I am working toward the goal of making all my books available in print versions. To this end, I have removed my earliest books from the market so that they may be improved with added scenes, fresh editing, and overall better stories. I will post news here as they become available again. Thank you for your patience.

Readers are the most important people in the world to writers because they complete our stories, to paraphrase Samuel Johnson. My spicy romantic adventures are written to finish in your imagination.

What’s your favorite type of romance?

Contemporary? Paranormal? Suspense? Fantasy and /or sci fi? You’ll find those stories and more here, full of dominant alpha men and strong women who challenge them.
My books are erotic romance. If the steamy bits were removed, each book would still offer a complete story with a standalone plot and a satisfying ending. There are no cliff-hangers. There are some ‘TBC’ (to be continued) books.
These stories are erotic, not pornographic. By that I mean they have well developed plots with the steamy scenes that add to the fun, although they aren’t strictly necessary.
Please keep in mind that these are fun books, intended to entertain. They are NOT instruction manuals and may not reflect best practice. If you decide to try anything portrayed in them, please research before stepping into this exciting world.

UNTAMED - book 3 in the Without Mercy series.

Nelly Rosato grew up in a small fishing village where hard work and heartbreak were simple facts of life. Roger Jenkins was born to wealth and privilege. Until he met the wildcat from the north, his heart remained free.
Having lost her entire family by the time she was fourteen, Nelly knows how to survive. She has an enviable range of skills, including ancient navigation secrets learned from her Samoan grandmother.
The year is 1924 and the prohibition laws in the USA have opened an opportunity for Nelly and Roger. They build a business together: Roger supplies the liquor and Nelly delivers it. He risks his money. She risks her freedom and safety.
When her adoptive mother Mercy is senselessly murdered, it is one loss too many. Nelly wants revenge. Roger insists she wait for the local authorities to act.
While the police are chasing the wrong suspect, Nelly learns who killed Mercy. Ignoring Roger’s order that she stay home, she prepares for her most perilous run of all.

He rules the queen's navy. Now he must tame the princess.
Devoted to her craft as a healer, Princess Gael intends to remain single. The people of Devmaer are gripped by a pandemic and need her.
When her parents choose a gruff, battle-hardened admiral as her mate, she is furious but cannot refuse. Instead, she vents her anger on Admiral Kai Grenville. To her horror, this old-fashioned yet undeniably sexy man takes her over his knee. He bares her bottom for a painful, embarrassing spanking and promises more of the same if she refuses to behave.
After their vows, he moves her to his vast seaside estate, far from her sheltered valley home. Before he leaves for a tour of duty, he warns her to only leave the grounds with at least one guard for protection. Gael smiles with false compliance while mischief brews in her heart.
She decides to go to the city on an urgent mission but doesn’t want Kai’s minders tagging along, reporting her every move. Her bravery lands her in the hands of kidnappers while the man who has vowed to protect her is thousands of miles away.

Disclaimer: Bound To The Admiral includes spankings and sexual scenes. These are fantasies. If they don't make your pulse race, please don't read this book. This standalone novel is book 1 in the Lighthouses of Devmaer series. It has a satisfying ending and can be read on its own or as part of the series.

Bound By Love - Tales from Devmaer

A reader asked me what happens with Xane and Jules (from Bound To The Admiral) after Kai and Gael set sail for Elsinania. Interesting question, I thought. So I wrote their story in this novella.

Blurb:
She’s supposed to be his ward but he’s treating her like a prisoner.
Stuck on a massive estate where she has no family or friends, Jules decides to unlock the Kedrant magic that is her heritage. Forbidden to do so, she must conceal the rituals that will liberate her heart and soul.
Major domo Xane has been trusted to safeguard her from her dangerous impulses. If she won’t listen to reason, then perhaps some old-fashioned discipline will teach her to obey.
While trying to tame Jules’s wild heart, Xane risks losing his.
Warning: Devmaer isn’t a world of political correctness. If you don’t like a spicy tale of a woman’s submission, please don’t read this story.

Bound to the Past - FREE - Tales From Devmaer

After years apart she still loves him, but will she submit to him?

Freja, rescued from the flesh markets of Silvelea at a young age, has learned firsthand how difficult life is for orphan girls on the planet of Devmaer. Her “rescue” landed her in the harsh world of Matron Cass Warren’s Girls Crib, where young girls are groomed to be sold off as mates to the highest bidder as soon as they reach maturity.
At eighteen Freja was drawn to Déak Ryba, the first man to ever show her kindness. But he didn’t stand a chance against Iwon Sándor’s money and power. Iwon claimed Freja’s hand, condemning her to a miserable life of abuse and neglect.
After three long-suffering years, Freja’s matehood was cut short by his untimely death.
For the first time in her life Freja finds herself free - free to work like a slave to repay the staggering debts Iwon left her. During her final ritual as his widow, a freak accident sweeps her out to sea and remarkably, right back into Déak’s arms.
Can the love that Déak and Freja once shared possibly have survived long years of separation? Will they finally claim the shared life that was denied them? Or will their happiness be stolen again by the sinister forces circling at the edge of their lives?
This novella is a prequel to The Lighthouses of Devmaer series and introduces the alien world of the planet Devmaer as well as some of the minor characters.
This standalone book has a satisfying ending and can be read on its own or as part of the series.

Disclaimer: Bound To The Past, is a second chance, fantasy-world romance. Along with a happily-ever after ending, it has some very steamy scenes, including elements of power exchange and discipline.
