Soft Flannel Hank

Esther MacLaren never pictured her life going so spectacularly sideways. A thirty-five-year-old witch with an art degree and no other job prospects, she took a job bartending at a vampire-owned nightclub in Savannah. But after seeing something she wasn't mean't to, Esther has been on the run for months. With nothing but her intuition to guide her Esther finds herself in the Pacific Northwest, careening directly into the path of Hank Dove.

Hank Dove is as big as he is quiet. He's forty-five, divorced, depressed, and trying therapy for the very first time. When Esther blows into his quiet, lonely life with all the subtlety of a squall, Hank is left reeling by feelings and desires he thought were long gone. Maybe, just maybe, he's not quite as stuck as he thought.

A one-night stand feels like so much more, but Hank discovers that he doesn't trust as easily as he used to. All of Esther's dangerous secrets don't help. How can he keep her safe if he doesn't know the truth? And how can he let himself love her if she won't stay?

Soft Flannel Hank is a dual POV contemporary paranormal romance with open door/explicit scenes. This book is intended for audiences 18+. HEA guaranteed.

'Til All the Seas Run Dry

The rules for selkies are simple. Don't tell anyone you're a selkie or the mortals will try to trap you. Don't lose track of your sealskin or the mortals will definitely trap you.

Jory did everything right. Even when she fell in love with the shipwrecked sailor she rescued, she kept her secret. But tragedy struck, taking her love, and landlocking her anyway. Resigned to her fate after centuries of searching for her lost sealskin, Jory made her way to the tiny coastal Washington town of World's End. When a new friend needs her help, Jory's world is upended by the discovery that she wasn't the only one keeping secrets.

Callum is tired. After nine hundred years as a vampire, immortality has begun to feel suffocating. Or, perhaps, it's the fact that he's spent centuries regretting the role he played in his one true love's demise. A loose end leads him to the Pacific Northwest, where he receives the surprise of a dozen lifetimes.

What happens when the dead aren't really dead at all?

Fate brought them together, cruel circumstances forced them apart, and now Jory has a choice to make. Should she return to the life she loved before she knew him? Or take a chance on the man for whom she left it all behind?

'Til All the Seas Run Dry is a contemporary, paranormal, dual POV romance with open door/explicit scenes. It is the second book in the Elements of Pining series, although it can be read as a standalone. This book is intended for audiences 18+.

Hold Fast

At the end of her handfast to the vicious and abusive Laird Malcolm Cameron, Una has had more than enough of men to last a lifetime. She may be free from the arrangement but doesn't know if she'll ever outrun the pain of the past year. If only she can find a place to start over. A gifted healer, she decides to make her way to start a new life with a neighboring clan. Nothing can stop her now... except perhaps a stranger in the woods begging for help... and his life.

From his earliest memories, Ewan MacDonald knew he would become Laird. He could never have predicted how much loss would pave the way or how much of himself he'd have to sacrifice. Now, he's responsible for his five younger siblings and his clan-and trying hard not to let the panic show. When his youngest brother is gravely wounded, he needs a healer. How fortunate, then, that one almost murders him in the woods.

Lives are at stake, but so too, it turns out, are hearts. Letting themselves be loved feels terrifying, but it's nothing compared to the danger lurking in the shadows. When the demons of the past come calling, will Una and Ewan find the strength to trust the other to catch them? Or will all be lost?

Hold Fast is a dual-POV, medieval highland romance. It is the first book in The Laird's Holdings series.
