SALE $0.99

Over the years Marabella created a wall to protect herself from the pain and to hide her horrible secret. Her husband died under mysterious circumstances that left her with more questions than answers. Lost and broken, she’s whisked away to Mexico by her sisters to help her forget about her recent tragedy.

“She was out of her element.….like she hadn’t known him at all. All these years, he hid the evil, dark side of himself behind designer clothes and money. In his desperate need just to survive, his true colors were finally on display. They frightened her, feeding her fear.”


She meets Mac, a rogue Scotsman, who shines light on the cold dark existence behind her wall. Usually a hit-and-run kind of guy with women, Marabella has him second-guessing his ways. She begins to break through his self-imposed fortress after his own tradegy. But his secret may destroy what he wants with her.

“She had affected him on every level, in every way, with her words, smile and body. He couldn't stay still, torn between keeping his distance and wanting to show her exactly how he wanted her. He didn't do dating. No strings attached, friends with benefits, always the safest bet. He could tell that Marabella wasn’t that type of woman and his pull toward her scared the hell out of him. It made her rise above every woman he had ever met. If he stuck around, all bets were off.”

Their worlds are blown apart when Marabella gets kidnapped. In her fight to stay alive, she seeks her truth, making some discoveries about herself and Mac.

“No wonder Mac seemed like that ray of sunshine. He showed her what made up a real man. She felt worshipped by him. He attended to everything about her, every nuance of her body.”

Will she choose to finally remove the blindfold to find her strength, transforming from victim to fighter?

Can Mac get to her before the kidnapper kills her after getting what they want?

Once Upon An Earl

$1.49

As we all know love has a habit of striking at the most inopportune moments and that sometimes fairy tales happen when we least expect them.

Giles Trevallier, 5th Earl of Winchester – tired, cold and very wet – was lamenting his decision to try to outride the storm. Escaping from the hustle of the city, Giles was looking forward to a few months of peace and quiet, while he managed his vast country estate. Now all he wanted to do was to get home, change into dry clothes and sit in front of a roaring fire with a hot meal and a large tumbler of whisky.
Fate, however, had other ideas and was about to intervene in the guise of a bedraggled female, who literally dropped at the Earl’s feet, soaked to the skin and more dead than alive; her sudden appearance turning his neat, orderly and, to be honest, rather boring existence completely upside down.
Waking, briefly, in an unfamiliar room and in the arms of a very tall and dangerously handsome stranger no less, the young woman has no memory of who she is or how she came to be there. Under the tender care of the Earl’s household, she slowly starts to recover, eventually recalling that her name is Willow, although everything else continues to elude her.
Following discreet enquiries into his unexpected guest – whose face haunts his every waking moment, Giles is shocked to discover that she is rumoured to be responsible for a fire that destroyed her family home and that her father’s body is presumed to be one of those recovered from the ashes. Suddenly this most respectable Earl is faced with the possibility that he is harbouring a criminal.
While trying to unravel the mystery surrounding her, Giles realises that he is falling hopelessly in love with Willow, who unbeknownst to him is fighting similar emotions. And as with anything involving the heart, a thoughtless word or gesture has a tendency to thwart even Fate’s best-laid plans.
Have Willow and Giles any chance of a happy ever after or will all manner of obstacles, such as misunderstandings, whispers of scandal, secret documents and foreign agents force them apart?

Removed to such a remote and unsophisticated location, Ophelia is expected to come to her senses. However, she discovers a new independence at Castle Kintochlochie, under the guidance of her sassy grandmother, Lady Morag.

Instead of being consigned to an ill-matched marriage, why shouldn’t Ophelia take over the governance of the Castle and the wider estate?

A bizarre selection of suitors are soon presenting themselves, but Ophelia remains one step ahead, until she begins to harbor feelings for Hamish, the Castle’s estate manager. 

To Ophelia’s annoyance, he’s already spoken for, and glamorous French coquette Felicité has no intention of letting ruggedly attractive Hamish slip from the service of her bed.

Intrigue abounds, as Ophelia discovers that there’s more to her rival than meets the eye, and that the Castle is a hotbed of illicit cavorting.

This wickedly naughty comedy of manners is a battle-cry for all young women on the path to self-discovery and independence. Follow feisty Ophelia, as she navigates her way through sexual minefields, coming to a place of awareness, and wisdom.

Will she betray him to the world? Or will she be his saving Grace?
