After all, weretigers and Lycans would hardly be a good match. But there is something about Chase Roman cannot resist in spite of his determination not to fall in love. Is it her fascinating American spunk and courage, or her stunning cinnamon eyes? Or could it be the passion he senses just beneath her calm, unruffled demeanor? Whatever it is, Roman must keep her safe from those who want to kill her while finding a way to show her what she is without driving her into the arms of the other shifters who also want her for a mate.Mother Nature made Chase the perfect mate for Roman. Now it seems like Fate is trying to intervene. But Roman refuses to give up without fight, and when his true nature is unleashed, all hell breaks loose. Perhaps Fate should have considered the consequences before messing with Mother Nature.A paranormal romantic suspense for all adventurous readers.

LAST WISHES - JORDAN DAVIS MYSTERIES - BOOK 1 He was a judge. He didn’t break the law…at least not until he met her.

He soon discovers she hasn’t changed her ways. Not only is she still ignoring the rules when it suits her, now she’s a target for a murderer. Unless she is the killer herself. She wasn’t really breaking the law, just bending it a little…and all for a good cause. Jordan Davis sees nothing wrong in breaking a silly city ordinance, especially when it interferes with her fulfilling the last wishes of her clients. To her Judge Trent is a narrow-minded, overbearing stick in the mud—a very sexy and hot stick in the mud. Until it seems as if he is responsible for several murders. Maybe the hunk of a judge isn’t as law abiding as she thought. Or maybe they’re both in danger of being the killer’s next victims.
