About the Author

Dreamy…Sensual…Forever Love

A quiet one, Nicole Dennis curled up with the latest book of a favorite author. Since the beginning, characters were in her head, worlds building themselves, and stories written. She began writing during class and continues to this day. Now she can let others into her imagination and worlds that always celebrate the love between two or more people within LGBT, paranormal, and fantasy.

During the day, she works in a quiet office in Central Florida, where she also makes her home, and enjoys the down time to slip into her imagination. She is owned by a semi-demonic tortie calico, affectionately known as Fat Cat.

Summary: Speed. Power. Accuracy. All things needed in racing, but for Brandon, Chris, Jason, and Eric it applies to far more... After Brandon and Chris thrust themselves into perilous danger to protect their chosen family, the world seems completely different to them. Chris finds himself suddenly haunted by thoughts of his long-estranged father, and Brandon immediately knows something is amiss. The ill-feelings haunt him as they continue to deal with the emotional distress caused by their efforts—in cohort with Jason's brother Jim—to stem whatever machinations were set out to destroy them. However, Jim finds there are more forces at play than he originally assumed. Meanwhile, when Chris' father shows up and delivers some earth-shattering news, he and Brandon are left trying to piece together what it all means. When Chris finds out his entire life is based on a lie, he is begrudgingly set on a course of discovering himself all over again. What finds him is far more than he ever could have anticipated. In this final installment, the four friends find out far more about themselves and their pasts and present, which in turn guides their futures with each other. When Chris’ lost past merges with his future and a lost connection finds him, he suddenly has more than just protecting his chosen family at stake. It is evident that whatever ordeal awaits them, this unlikely but well-matched group will band together, but will they be able to thwart everything that threatens their safety and happiness?

Summary: Ben Cronin and Ty O’Malley have been inseparable ever since they got together on Valentine’s Day. Nine months into their relationship, dark clouds descend when Ben’s father falls seriously ill and dies in a matter of weeks. Having lost his only close relative, Ben is grief-stricken, and appears to be sinking ever deeper into a black hole. Desperate to help Ben cope with his pain, Ty plans a getaway for them, to coincide with their first anniversary. But taking Ben back to the stunning beauty of the Swiss Alps, a place he visited with his father years ago, is a risky undertaking. Reuniting him with memories could as easily push Ben deeper into his pain as it might help him find the first traces of light. Ty’s plan will either bring them closer than they’ve ever been, or spell disaster— for both of them. Valentine’s surprise is the sequel to Valentine’s Love. While it can be read as a stand-alone, you’ll enjoy this story more if you read Valentine’s Love first.
