A Midsummer Knights Romance: A Tournament World of Chivalry, Intrigue, and Passion
Book 1 in 'A Midsummer Knights Romance'; Book 2 in the 'Renegade Lords' series

An Irish warrior takes an arrogant heiress captive to ensure a debt is paid. What could possibly go wrong?

Irish warrior Máel has come to a grand tournament to collect what's due him from a scheming noble lord. When the baron cannot--or will not--pay, Máel takes the one thing the man holds dear: his beautiful, arrogant daughter, Cassia.

Lady Cassia d'Argent has no time for warriors.

Heiress to a barony, she knows her value: a pawn. She intends to make the most of it. Her wily father plans to wed her off to the highest bidder at the tournament, and Cassia will finally achieve her dream: a chivalrous knight in glittering armor to honor and esteem her.

Only Máel is nothing like her dreams. He is bold, outspoken, has furs on his bed, and awakens a desire inside her more dangerous than a thousand swords.

What if this man becomes the dream she never dared to dream?

What if her father never pays the debt?

Worse...what if he does?

Can she rely on an outlaw to be more chivalrous than a knight?

If you like adventure and enemies to lovers romance, you’ll love this romance because it has sexy banter, forbidden passion, and the romance of a lifetime.

His plan was heartless, ruthless, and simple. Until he met her.

Irish warrior Tadhg is on the run.

He has a single mission: escape with the legendary dagger of King Richard before a brutal nobleman hunts him down.

Trapped and almost cornered, his plan is simple: plant his contraband on the innocent merchant widow with long hair and complicated eyes. Then abduct her and use her as camouflage to escape.

Igniting a raging passion is not part of the plan...

...neither is falling in love.

Magdalena knows she should be terrified by the dark-eyed stranger who charms her with his wit and cuts down soldiers with careless grace, but all she feels is excitement as he drags her deeper into his perilous mission--and grand adventure.

Near-misses and a raging hot passion abound as they outwit their pursuers, forging a connection that melts the icy wall around Tadhg's war-torn heart.

But when the enemy closes in, will he choose the mission of a lifetime, or the brave, passionate woman who's stolen his heart?

Working Hard....And Working Late....Has Never Been So Sexy

WORKING HARD...
Juliette Jauntie knows how to keep things under control: crushing deadlines, insane workload, a secret reckless side. Nothing gets her riled up anymore. Nothing but her biggest competition, the high-powered, predatory and oh-so-handsome Johnny Danger.

WORKING LATE...
Former Ranger, Johnny is ruthlessly devoted to Danger Enterprises, the company he built from the ground up. So when Juliette blows into his world, Johnny knows he needs to stay focused. Ignore her amped-up energy and the hot red underwear peeking out of the top of her jeans. Ignore the way his body hums every time she's near.

...HAS NEVER BEEN SO SEXY
But when Juliette's small time report causes big time problems for one of Johnny's clients, he has to hunt her down at a remote ski resort to demand answers. Juliette has no intention of being intimidated, nor of backing down. And she has absolutely no intention of falling victim to Johnny’s seductive charms.

Two out of three’s not bad.

Their sexy showdown blows the lid off a scorching passing and uncovers a shocking crime hidden in plain sight, and as the stakes mount and trouble skyrockets, Johnny knows he's in real trouble. Because with Juliette in the mix, it's more than his business at stake: he might just lose his heart.
****
OUTSIDE THE LINES is sharply sexy, racy romantic mystery with humor about two hard-boiled adversaries discovering a scorching passion and unexpected connection in the arms of the person who pushes all their buttons.

Told in first person point of view (I/me/we), it alternates viewpoints between the hero and heroine, and is filled with some boundary-pushing sexytimes.
