Book Description
Violet Carmichael knew her second year of college would be tough, but nothing could have prepared her for what was about to happen... Violet's goal is clear-to finish college and work alongside her father and uncle at their family business-but she has one major problem. The dreaded Professor Torres, head of the Architectural Department at Tulane, has a reputation as one of the toughest teachers on campus. Violet has heard more than once that he can be a downright jerk, but she's determined to not let him get in her way. He might be a successful professor, but his personal life is nothing short of a mess... Diego Torres has the worst track record when it comes to women-which is why when he first lays eyes on his new student, he assumes she's like all the other superficial Barbie dolls he's always been attracted to. But it only takes a few encounters for him to realize he couldn't have been more wrong, and the more time he spends with Violet, the more he desires her in a way no professor should desire a student. Sometimes it's impossible to walk away, even when there's so much at stake... After desperately trying avoid crossing that thin ethical line, Diego and Violet are no longer able to deny the sexual tension between them and risk everything, falling into an all-consuming, passionate relationship. But when outsiders threaten to destroy it all, Diego has no choice but to make a life-altering decision for himself and the woman he is forbidden to love. As lines between student and professor begin to blur, the consequences might end up destroying them both...

After his father's untimely death, Ansil is set to become Duke of Ravenswood on his next birthday.

When Orien is called upon by his brother, Reginald, to kill the pampered future duke, it is the perfect opportunity to seek revenge against his power-hungry brother. Orien formulates a plan to use Reginald's vicious request to his advantage by kidnapping Ansil and holding him hostage until he can fulfill his birthright.Soon Orien realizes that Ansil is nothing like he'd expected.

Book Description
ROSS I was never supposed to see Tom again after the one passionate night we spent together. That's the way I prefer it. I was definitely never supposed to operate on him when he was brought into my ER after his accident. That part's against the law. It was an honest mistake - I didn't realize until later that the man I'd just put back together was the same man who'd just spent the previous night taking me apart, innuendo most definitely intended. And when I paid his medical bills, that was just a guilty conscience. He wouldn't have been on the road as tired as he was if me and my issues hadn't been against him staying the night. But when I keep making up excuses to see him, and those turn into justifications for why I'm mashing my lips up against his and taking off his clothes again and throwing him down on my desk, well... Okay, I admit it. That might technically be my bad. After my last disastrous relationship, commitment's been a no go for me. I don't know how to turn my back on the first guy in forever to actually make me feel something. Make me willing to risk everything. Except it's not just a cliché here. But no matter what my head says, I can't ignore what my heart is telling me. TOM I'm getting sick of people telling me to stay away from Ross. At first it was just a joke. He had a reputation for being a bad boy, and people don't call me tight-ass as a compliment to my glutes. I never thought we'd actually hit it off. The only thing we had in common that night were too many drinks and loneliness. But we did connect, on a deeper level than I can't even explain to myself - let alone to everyone who seems to have an opinion now on why I can't be with the doctor who saved my life. Even if he's also the only one who can heal my soul. Normally I'm the guy that's all about listening to what others think, but this time is different. This time I've got to listen to my heart. This 50,000 word standalone features medical misadventures and sexual healing. Our heroes won't let the law stand in the way of true love, but you should if you're under eighteen please!

Book Description
As next in line for the Evergreen crown, Prince Merrick Davendall's future involves ruling, marriage, and producing an heir of his own. But he's long been tormented by desires that are far from princely. Especially when the beautiful Cassius is promoted to be his new valet, and Merrick is struck by a longing like never before-a longing to know him far beyond royal and servant. After his father's passing, Cassius Havendale's sole duty is to provide for his family. A promotion to serve a pampered prince is something he endures only for their sake. Surely Prince Merrick has no understanding of the true suffering of the common people, nor could he possibly understand what it's like to desperately desire something he cannot have. Except the prince is not at all what Cassius imagined. Kind, humorous, and caring to those in need, he also shares Cassius's affinity for the arts. In fact, Merrick understands his deepest vulnerabilities in a most remarkable way. As their affection deepens, the underlying tension between them becomes unbearable and they're unable to ignore it any longer. But when the queen prepares a lavish ball with all the eligible ladies in the land in attendance, Merrick must fulfill his obligations to his country, and Cassius has the needs of his family to consider. They've long known their stolen moments would have to come to an end, but are they ready to give up one another and the idea of a happily-ever-after? ***PLEASE NOTE: EVER AFTER is a romantic fairy tale-minus the magic-that features one compassionate prince, one brooding valet, and plenty of angsty, forbidden love. It's loosely based on a certain treasured fairy tale in a wintery make-believe setting that wouldn't be considered contemporary but also isn't based on any specific time period and doesn't play by any traditional rules. *Please be sure to read the Dear Reader letter in the book before you begin.
