Summary: Author’s Note: Next Man Up was written before the tragic and senseless deaths of Johnny and Matthew Gaudreau. Out of respect for their memory and for the family, publication was delayed, and the book was revised to minimize some unfortunate and highly coincidental similarities to reality. 30% of the author’s royalties will be donated to the John and Matthew Gaudreau Foundation, an organization started by the brothers’ family to support causes that were near and dear to their hearts. ---------- When tragedy strikes the Pittsburgh Whiskey Rebels, winger Avery Caldwell loses more than his longtime linemate. Without warning, his best friend in the world is just… gone. There’s no time for grief, though. The season is starting, and now Avery is captain of his devastated team. He’s determined to be strong for them and lead them by example—putting aside his emotions and focusing on hockey. But he can only pretend he’s okay for so long. Peyton Hall was looking forward to a new start on a new team.

Summary: Contract killers don’t retire. They don’t start over and they don’t live normal lives. Zane Cortese doesn’t care what the unspoken rules are and he breaks away from a life of murder to become a regular, law-abiding citizen. He settles down to do what he’s always loved—writing songs. So what if he lives on a remote mountain side, has no friends, and there are discreet cameras situated all over his property. Being normal isn’t as easy as it sounds. Zane’s struggle to be like everyone else is second only to his infatuation with the cowboy renting the cabin on his property. There is a list of logical and ethical reasons why he shouldn’t pursue a relationship with the arresting man—not that Zane knows how to have, you know, a relationship. Despite what he wants or is even ready for, his pushy agent arranges for him to meet a popular band. Needing the distraction, he agrees not knowing that before the night is over he will be caught in a web of schemes. One thing’s for certain, Zane doesn’t care if life is normal as long as he gets to keep the people that he’s quickly coming to love.

Summary: Arthur When I was squeezing seven rescue dogs and a horde of cats in my small house, all I wanted was to not turn away a pet in need. Opening the Safe Haven Pet Rescue was a dream come true. But when I get hurt, standing between a man with a gun and a stray dog, I realize I still can't do it all. My injured leg, a concussion, having to lean on my friends, and realizing how helpless I feel, throws me back to my childhood when nothing I did ever seemed to be enough. But there's one silver lining. Brooklyn West. He's the kind of guy who holds a stranger’s hand in a crisis. He's great with my dogs, even cranky little Chili, and really seems to want to help the shelter. I like watching him be a protective big brother when his sister turns up on his doorstep, even though I think there's pain underneath his sunny smiles. But as we move toward friendship, I keep looking for the strings, for the catch, and wondering how I'll pay him back, because nothing in my life can be that sweet, or that simple. Brooklyn I went through a slice of medical hell, and came out the other side with enough money to move to the opposite side of the country and start the doggie daycare business of my dreams. The cherry on top of that good luck is meeting Arthur Bjornsson. Big, wild-bearded, soft-voiced Arthur is the kind of guy my family would've ridiculed. He's warm-hearted and willing to throw himself into harm's way right in front of my eyes to save one pathetic stray dog. He's the kind of guy who gives me back some faith in humanity. But when my underage sister Cheyenne shows up on my doorstep, on the run from the family I thought I'd escaped, my old life and new collide. I want to help Arthur, get to know him, and, as he heals, I want more than just friendship. But Cheyenne brings legal risks, a teen on the other side of my bedroom wall, and the threat of retribution from our family. The simple relationship I thought Arthur and I were building is suddenly messy as hell. I don't know how we'll get through this to reach the furever home I so desperately want. A Furever Home is a fur-baby-filled, hurt-comfort, small town romance between two men whose only chance at a family is to build one themselves.

Summary: There’s nothing more dangerous than a bored vampire. Doctor Anthony Channon, commonly known as Ant, was still struggling after his sister's abduction and what he perceived as a gross betrayal by the police captain he'd been used to working for. In theory, he should've been enjoying time off from his time as a police consultant, and lecturer at the Mage Academy. But that wasn't easy to do when his fated mate, Viktor couldn't seem to sit still for five minutes. “What the hell did you do that for?” Viktor scowled, dabbing at the blood welling up from a knife cut in his shirt. “I’m supposed to be having lunch with my mate in less than thirty minutes, and now I have to find a new shirt.” Viktor was bored with a capital B. Not with his mate, never with his mate, but Viktor was used to living in the thick of things and life with Ant wasn't like that. When he gets a random call, asking him to meet someone in an alley, it was tempting to ignore it... but did I mention Viktor was bored? A knife to the guts later and Viktor might come to regret his impulsive decision, especially when Ant found out. “Why would I want to meet Carmine Doukas? I’ve already met him. I don’t need to do that again.” It appears that Ant's reputation has changed since taking down Tony Manzano, and another "Family Man" Carmine Doukas thinks that having Viktor and Ant on his team is a good idea. Dangling a carrot in the form of a historic murder case under Ant's nose, and he's intrigued despite Viktor's warnings. But as the rabbit hole gets deeper and solving the murder seems almost impossible, have Ant and Viktor finally been manipulated a step too far? The Psychic and the Vampire: A bad case of vampire curiosity is the sequel to The Psychic and the Vampire. To get the most out of this story, it would be best to have read book one first.
