Dylan Adams ran away from the only man she could ever trust, but when tragedy strikes, Rade is there right beside her. Willing to give him another chance, Dylan confesses her love for him. Everything is perfect, she couldn’t ask for anything more, until her world falls apart. She knew he had secrets, but the one secret she didn’t expect, is the one secret that could tear them apart for good.

About the author:

Award winning Author of the Independent Press Award and NYC Big Book Award.

My love for writing began several years ago after an early retirement from a demanding job that I loved, but also hated because it consumed so much of my time. Now, I am able to focus my time on what I love. Writing romance has been a life long dream and to actually say that I am a published author is beyond what I would have ever expected.

Even though some may say I have a little naughtiness in my books, I look at it as an added bonus for my readers. After all what is a romance book without a little spice.

When I am not writing, I enjoy spending time with friends either at home or out on the town. Mostly, I enjoy a relaxing night at home where I can enjoy a glass of wine in the company of a good book.

What inspired you to write your book?

My love for books inspired me to write, that and finding comfort when I am writing.

Here is a short sample from the book:

Entering the elevator, Rade lost his control. He had held back long enough. Pushing the stop button on the elevator panel, he took Dylan in his arms and whispered, “You have no idea how much I want you at this moment.”
There was surprise written all over Dylan’s face as Rade lifted her from the floor. Her legs automatically wrapped around his waist as she felt the impeding erection he was carrying. A soft moan escaped Dylan’s mouth as she muttered, “I want you too.”
Rade gently kissed Dylan on the lips while frantically lifting her blouse to gain access to her pert breasts. Lowering the cup on her bra, he tenderly took her uncovered breast with one hand as he held onto her with the other. Using his thumb and index finger, he firmly pinched her semi-hard nipple, bringing it to full attention. Dylan struggled to undo Rade’s zipper as he continued to lick and suck her nipple. The energy between them was like a tornado whipping through their bodies, feeding on every wave of electricity in its path.

    Finding Alice by Stephane Morris

    0 out of 5

    Romantic, sensual and enlightening.

    This novel creates a new genre by taking a refreshingly different angle to other romantic novels. A love affair leads to a journey of self-discovery that is both thought provoking and enlightening.

    John Mason is a successful businessman. A beautiful free spirited woman brings out passions John never knew existed, with consequences he could never have imagined. What unresolved inner conflicts from his youth does the love affair expose? Can he overcome them? If he does where will that leave him? The outcome is unpredictable.

    A life-changing journey that is both fascinating and confronting.

    Literally, a page-turner that starts slowly but will ultimately grip you and hold you to the end.

    For mature readers.

This decadent five book bundle of novellas contains: What He Wants, At His Mercy, Pleasing Him, Ties that Bind and Enslaved by Sin–a total of over 90,000 words. If purchased separately, these books would cost over $12.00.

    What He Wants (My Alpha Billionaire, 1)

    Billionaire Shane Trant is used to getting what he wants. What he can’t buy, he takes. When he sees Bristol Deatrich, he knows he wants her. But there’s a problem. Only complete possession of her mind and body will satisfy him…

    At His Mercy

    Sometimes freedom can only be gained through captivity…

    Elena Caine has secrets. The kind that could devastate her life if they’re revealed. And now a selfish bastard is dragging the skeletons out of her closet. She’s being blackmailed. There’s no way out–but to turn to the man Elena trusts least, the quietly seductive Dom Kyler Pierce.

    Pleasing Him

    Britt Olsen is shocked when the man who bought her house, the gorgeous Andre Cruz-Romero, shows up at her front door a week after closing. Now Britt has her chance to get to know the enigmatic man who has inspired a fantasy or two, or more. But she is both shocked and thrilled to learn about Andre’s extreme erotic tastes…

    Ties that Bind

    Illusion. A word shaded with nuance, making the men who practice it–the masters–enigmas. Particularly when they magically materialize from the shadows of a woman’s past.

    It’s been fifteen years. No longer the tormented young men Blair knew and loved so long ago, Damon and Trey still know how to touch her heart, how to draw out her secrets, and how to bring her to the edge of ecstasy. Blair has two weeks to unravel the ties that have bound the three of them together. Two weeks to solve the mysteries veiled by her seductive masters’ illusions. And two weeks to surrender to the smoldering desires burning in her body as she submits to their darkest demands.

    Some ties can never be severed.

    Enslaved by Sin

    Over two hundred years ago, the Master of Sin welcomed guests to Castle Greh, inviting them to taste decadent carnal pleasures every night. Now, some claimed the castle was haunted by the dark prince and his many lovers. She was about to learn the truth…
