Anne Wynter might not be who she says she is, but she’s managing quite well as a governess to three highborn young ladies.

Her job can be a challenge—in a single week she finds herself hiding in a closet full of tubas, playing an evil queen in a play that might be a tragedy (or might be a comedy—no one is sure), and tending to the wounds of the oh-so-dashing Earl of Winstead. After years of dodging unwanted advances, he’s the first man who has truly tempted her, and it’s getting harder and harder to remind herself that a governess has no business flirting with a nobleman.

Daniel Smythe-Smith Might be in mortal danger, but that’s not going to stop the young earl from falling in love. And when he spies a mysterious woman at his family’s annual musicale, he vows to pursue her, even if that means spending his days with a ten-year-old who thinks she’s a unicorn. But Daniel has an enemy, one who has vowed to see him dead. And when Anne is thrown into peril,he will stop at nothing to ensure their happy ending . . .

Private investigator Mackenzie Williams’s newest client is everything he’s looking for in a guy—charming, beautiful, intelligent, and successful. There’s only one itty bitty problem—the guy’s not exactly gay. In fact, Jordan Channing is looking for a PI to follow his fiancée. The smart thing would be to thank Jordan for his time, turn Mr. Perfect away (don’t let the door hit you on the rump, thank you very much), and forget he exists.

Of course, Mackenzie has never been accused of doing the smart thing. Being a smart aleck is more his MO. Relationships aren’t up his alley, never have been. So why’s he so inexplicably drawn to his new client?

Jordan has always been the high achiever, a man who lives in a focused, controlled, and carefully constructed manner. But for the first time in his life, he has to admit the impossible—another man is getting his engine running on all cylinders. Despite Jordan’s denial, it’s not long before he can no longer resist the strong undercurrents pulling them together. Now Jordan must decide if he can go against everything he’s ever known to have the only love he’s ever wanted.

VAMPIRE LOVE STORY
Josiah Reign is a lover and a fighter. Out for a simple jog, he happens upon a young woman who needs help. So Josiah does what he does best. He takes on her attackers…all five of them, in fact. Little does Josiah know that this one act of goodwill will introduce him to a very strange world, a world of dreams…and nightmares. For this woman, Lena, is not who she seems, and her friends are the stuff of legends. Worse yet, Josiah finds himself falling for not one, but two of these deadly creatures of the night. And as Josiah suffers a devastating loss that rocks his world, he will fight for what he believes in. He will fight for his one true love. And fighting is what Josiah does best.

THE WEREWOLF WHISPERER
For Josiah Reign, life as he knows it has been forever changed. In two shorts months he went from unbeliever to the savior of the Mani people (a vampire race that has been living underground for 10,000 years). Now Josiah must learn to control his powerful new body, all while understanding his destiny…and falling deeper in love. Soon Josiah realizes that to understand his calling, he must save a young werewolf…a werewolf with incredible powers of his own. Along the way, alliances are forged and old enemies rise again. And when tragedy strikes, Josiah must make the ultimate choice…and face an evil far greater than anything he’d ever imagined.

FOREVER AND ALWAYS
Josiah heads for Europe to master his gifts. Along the way, he realizes that others just might know what he’s up to. He fights off enemies from all sides. Ultimately, Goshi, the blue gnome, trains Josiah and he returns back to the states. When Josiah comes back to the states, things are not what they once were. He needs to fight for his love Lena, more than he ever has before. Two unsuspecting enemies surface and now Josiah needs to protect what is rightfully his.

VAMPIRES VS. WEREWOLVES
Josiah Reign is building his own Mani army to take on Krull for a future battle of epic proportions. Old and new loves reveal themselves as Josiah comes to terms with his destiny. Struggling to keep old friendships alive, Josiah finds himself in an underground, immortal, mixed martial arts fight club fighting for his life and the lives of others. Will Josiah build his army in time? Who did Lena choose? When all is said and done, who will be by Lena’s side in the end? Will it be Josiah, or someone else?

ONE LOVE
This has never been more true than now, as Josiah ramps up his vampire and werewolf army with tactical strategies and combat techniques that will prepare him to face the evil Krull in the prophetic battle that will make or break the very survival of the Mani people. Lena, the love of Josiah’s life, is pregnant and about to deliver twins who have a special destiny of their own. Josiah is awed by fatherhood, especially when one of his sons reveals a supernatural gift more powerful than Josiah ever imagined.

DIVINE BLOOD
Though peace and harmony have reigned for years on the island of Helena, the new governor of the island of Attica poses a threat to everything and everyone that Josiah holds dear. It’s getting harder to call up an army and Josiah goes solo and dusts off his fighting skills to protect his family. He also examines his beliefs and questions the Triat’s control over who lives and who dies. But who is a friend and who is a foe? After one of his sons is snatched, the clock is ticking toward the decisions that could change the dynamic of the Mani royal family forever.

SONS OF JOSIAH
With Jason held captive by the evil Brock, Josiah has to make a tough choice about whether to turn his other son, Joshua, into a vampire. It would help them fight for Jason’s life, but change Joshua’s whole destiny. And should he change the destiny of one son to save the other?
