Book Description
I'm the guy you love to hate. In every story in my life, I seem to end up playing the villain-and I've got the scars to prove it. That role works fine for me, because I'm sure as hell not anyone's hero. I run my life and my empire with an iron fist-until she knocks my tightly controlled world off its axis. She's nobody's damsel in distress, but I can't help but want to save her anyway. I guess we're about to find out if there's a hero buried beneath these scars.

I thought I could do this. I thought I could leave the war behind. I was wrong. I can’t do this. I can’t go to class and pretend like everything is normal. That I’m normal. I’m not. I’ve lost everything that matters to me. But I made a promise. And if I’m going to keep that promise, I have to focus. I have to pretend that I belong on this southern campus that drips with old money. And I have to pass stats. That’s where Beth comes in. I’m terrified she’ll see through me. That the careful lies and easy smile won’t be enough to convince her that everything is fine. That she’ll see how broken I really am. But there’s something about her that draws me closer. A sadness in her eyes that am powerless to resist. I should walk away. Protect her from the broken, darkness in me. Before we both fall into something neither of us can control Stay focused. Get a job. Save her father’s life. Beth Lamont knows far too much about the harsh realities of life her gilded classmates have only read about in class. She’ll do whatever it takes to take care of her father, even if that means tutoring a guy like Noah - a guy who represents everything she hates about the war, soldiers and what the Army has done to her family. Noah Warren doesn’t know how to be a student. All he knows is war. But he’s going to college now to fulfill a promise and he doesn’t break his promises. Except he doesn’t count on his tutor being drop dead gorgeous and distracting as hell. One look at Beth threatens to unravel the careful lies Noah has constructed around him. A simple arrangement turns into something neither of them can deny. And a war that neither of them can forget could destroy them both.

Book Description
His scarred hands are the gentlest I've ever known. If only life were a fairy tale where Beauty got to keep her Beast...

I'm alone and in hiding, trying to rebuild some semblance of a normal life. I didn't expect healing to come in the form of a rough ex-con whose rage drives him in ways I'll never understand. Ivan's scars are on the inside—a wounded soul like me. But day by day, this gentle giant proves to me that there are second chances in life, and he deserves them as much as I do.

Book Description
Praise for The Days I Dream of Chocolate... "The Days I Dream of Chocolate” is a cozy read. The overall thematics can be understood by and are relatable to anyone; any reader can find something to take away. The allusions and, often, the diction are quite charming and occasionally quite clever." ~ Matt, Editor, FlukyFiction "Unique, engaging and definitely a piece of work that is strong and memorable. Each poem here is different, not one even verges on being the same, and the contextual nature of the poems means there is so much more in the depths of these poems than what is first noticed when read. I think - and I hope - that this book will be a piece of work others reference when writing from different points of view." ~ Rhys Milsom, Poet Description: The Days I Dream of Chocolate is a collection of poems that focuses on the different facets of love, from falling in love to growing into self-love, and everything in between. Great for those moments of pure infatuation, or simply to relive the sensations of love all over again, this collection will leave you with a flutter in your heart and a deeper appreciation of what it means to LOVE. No assembly necessary, some chocolate required.
