Excerpt

“Let them see you in the only way I cannot? Like hell. This is mine.” He quirks his thumb, making my spine contract, manipulated like a marionette. “Your heavy pants, mine to taste. Your wails of ecstasy, mine to hear.” He teases me with a second finger, spreading me open. “The tightening of every muscle just before you lose control, mine to feel. The scent of your arousal that lingers long after, mine to smell.”

Excerpt

“Open your eyes, Tiana.
My eyes flutter open and I sit up. A silhouette of a fully transformed fae male is sitting cross-legged in front of me. He’s the spitting image of Lucian with small differences. He looks like he’d be taller and brawnier. Despite him merely being an image made of magic and light, his eyes glow deep purple, the darker cousins to Lucian’s. His midnight hair is long and pulled back behind his head in a braid running down his back. Rowan could be Lucian’s older brother. Or a more dangerous, feral, and powerful version of him.
“Why do you look just like him? How are you doing this?” 
My reply comes out breathy and strange. He replies, and while his mouth moves, I can only hear him in my head.
Using your magical well, I can manifest like this for short periods of time. I look like Lucian because I am his distant relative. Before I became the king of the fae, I was a citizen of the spirit court within the royal family.
My hands move toward his form by themselves before I snatch them back again, “Can I touch you?” 
He moves closer, one blink he’s a few feet away, and then his knees are nearly touching mine. It doesn’t startle me. If anything, I lean closer to him in wonder. His form is made up entirely of magic, swirling colors moving quickly throughout.
You may touch me, if you’d like to.
I reach out with shaking fingers and lay one hand against his chest. It feels solid and real. Like he’s living and breathing right in front of me. When his fingers come up to brush my cheek, my eyelids flutter closed. It almost feels like my own soul is caressing me, comforting me, making me whole again. I hold his face in my hands and run my thumbs over his smooth cheeks. When Rowan smiles at me it takes my breath away. Magic is sparkling off him so vividly that I almost want to shield my eyes.
While Lucian calls to my spirit, Rowan calls to my very being. The darkest depths or recesses of my soul. He knows everything about me, yet I can sense love and tenderness from him that makes me feel safe and happy. We move to lie side by side together with our hands clasped tightly.
We lie there like that long after darkness had fallen and the stars came out. We spoke about our fears, his life he led while being king, and what may come of us in the future. It’s a simple interaction that has no expectations, no tensions, and it’s a relief to have this time with him. Although, it may have had the opposite effect of what Rowan was hoping for. While I feel closer to him, and my heart aches for him, he still isn’t real, right? He can’t stay with me forever like this. And do I only like him more now because he resembles Lucian, the man that I’m almost certain is my fated mate? The confusion in my chest grows as I roll onto my side to face him.
His form is dimmer now as if he doesn’t have much more time before he will disappear. It allows me to better study his features. Rowan has a strong jawline, deep coal violet eyes, and crow’s feet that speak of many hours spent laughing. I can see his emotions plainly on his face as he watches me in return. Love, fear, uncertainty. 
Are they simply a reflection of my own feelings, or is Rowan capable of feeling things? I’m still not sure how this shared body thing works. The thought leads me back to the main question I keep asking. As if sensing my inner monologue, he leans over me, one hand on either side of my head. His eyes search my face, while his looks vulnerable. The pure honesty we have between us gives me the courage to ask him one of my many burning questions.
Are you real?
I am real, Tiana. For you, I am real.”

LMDaddyIssuesBookCover6x9_MEDIUM-new.jpg

A single billionaire, a young nanny, and a surprise baby.

My life was ordered. Smooth and neat like my scotch. I had arranged relationships with a beginning and an end. No romantic attachments was my motto.

Then I met Maggie. A beautiful, young woman trying to find her place in the gritty world of Manhattan. She deserved more than a jaded man like me, so I let her walk away.

But fate stepped in and an ex-lover surprised me with a baby she claimed was mine. Desperate I hired a well-recommended nanny sight unseen. When she knocked at the door of my penthouse, I opened it to find Maggie standing on the other side.

I watched Maggie lovingly care for my child and wanted to learn to be a father to my daughter. But having Maggie so close was dangerous. She was a terrifying ray of sunshine that threatened to thaw my frozen heart.

I needed her for my child.

At least that’s what I told myself.

Until it was too late.

Excerpt

I discovered a new species of male in Manhattan: men in suits. They were everywhere. Walking down the street. Riding the subway. Standing in line for coffee right behind me. The city was a yummy box of man candy, and I had a hard time passing up the sweets. I appraised the latest suit as he ordered coffee. He was a head taller than everyone else. Light scruff scattered across his tight, slice-of-country-ham jawline in a perfect touch of masculinity. He wore a midnight blue power suit paired with a sky-colored tie. Gold cufflinks peeked out of his sleeves, with a faceted diamond that needed its own zip code. I lowered my gaze to the cut of his pants. Tight. Euro. My preferred country when it came to men’s clothing. I loved the sporty Abercrombie look in college, but New York City converted me to brands like Armani and Hugo Boss. Tailored. Slick. Just like him. He resembled an Abercrombie model all grown up, the best of both worlds. Mr. Armani pushed his fingers through his perfectly styled hair, but every strand resumed its previous position. Was this the kind of sorcery men in suits possessed?

Sparks fly between a plucky intern and her billionaire boss in this new standalone from a USA TODAY bestseller.

For someone so famous, he sure has a lot of secrets. He’s Jack Ward, my billionaire boss, at least for the summer while I support his national book tour. But the funny thing is, the tour doesn’t make much sense. The odd cities, the late-night excursions, the secrets simmering between us – they’re all making me a little crazy, especially when he gives me one of those looks. You know the kind.

He’s up to something. I just know it. And I’d love to find out what. There’s just one tiny problem. With his movie star looks and devious mind, he’s distracting me to no end. And just maybe, I’m distracting him, too.

But the worst thing? I’m pretty sure I like it.

***Wordless is a fun, full-length standalone romance with a guaranteed happily-ever-after!***

Excerpt

Chapter One

For someone I’d known less than four hours, he sure was bossy.
“Pack your stuff,” he said. “We’re leaving.”
I stared up at him. “We?”
His hair was thick and blond, and his eyes were so blue, they made the ocean look dingy in comparison. “Well you’re not going alone,” he said.
I struggled for a reply and came up empty. Honestly, what was I supposed to say? The guy in front of me wasn’t just a new acquaintance. He was also Jack Ward – my favorite author, a total hottie, and a billionaire several times over.
Unfortunately, he was also just a little bit scary. Ask my roommate. He’ll tell you – well, unless he’s already escaped through his bedroom window, that is.
I glanced around the condo where I’d been living for the past two weeks. To say the arrangement had gone to crap would be giving crap a bad name.
Turns out, my roommate was a druggie and a dude. On top of that, he wasn’t terrific at keeping his horse in the barn, if you know what I mean.
Until just five days ago, I’d never even met the guy, much less realized that “Nicky” wasn’t short for Nicole, but rather Nicholas. But in my own defense, the gal who’d rented me the place had neglected to mention this little detail, along with a whole bunch of other stuff – on purpose, no doubt.
And me? Like a total sucker, I’d actually trusted her.
Now I didn’t know who to trust. I bit my lip. If only my sister were here.
Jack’s voice interrupted my thoughts. “If you need boxes, let me know. I’ll have some delivered.”
I blinked. It was nearly ten o’clock on a Sunday night. This was a small town. Nothing was open. I shook my head. And was box delivery seriously a thing?
Not in my world, it wasn’t. Then again, I wasn’t a billionaire. In fact, my bank balance was dangerously close to zero.
I just had to ask, “Who’d do that?”
“Do what?” Jack said.
“Deliver boxes. I mean, nothing’s open.”
He gave me a look. “Do you need them or not?”
“No,” I admitted.
“Good,” he said. “Then get packing.”
I didn’t appreciate his tone. “Don’t you think that’s kind of bossy? I mean, I never said for sure that I’m moving.”
His jaw tightened. “Well you’re not staying here. I can tell you that.”
Yup, he was definitely bossy. I wanted to argue. But I couldn’t. And why?
It was because he was right.
I couldn’t stay. Not anymore. But I’d known that already.
Stalling for time, I glanced around the condo. The place was surprisingly nice. It had come pre-furnished, too, which meant that nearly nothing was mine.
Sure, I had some clothes in the bedroom along with my notebook computer and a few essentials. But the sad truth was, I could probably cram everything I owned into my cheap compact car.
No boxes needed.
Still, I shoved a hand through my hair and tried to think. Leaving sounded easy enough, but where would I go?
A hotel?
As if I had the money.
My sister’s place?
That would’ve been the plan, if only she were in town.
I was still running through my options when Jack said, “Becka.”
I jumped at the sound of my name. “What?”
“You’re not packing.”
“I know, because I’m thinking.”
“So do both,” he said.
I sighed. On this, he was right, too. After all, it would take me at least a half-hour to gather up my stuff. Surely by then, I’d know where I was going.
But for now, I was simply going crazy.
Some of this was Jack’s fault. Not only had he just assaulted my scuzz-bucket of a roommate, he was distracting the heck out of me.
Some people go for movie stars. Or rock stars. Or hell, even reality TV stars. But me? I’d had my nose crammed in one book or another for as long as I could recall. Some of those books were better than others.
But seven years ago at the ripe old age of seventeen, I’d fallen head-over-heels in love – with his books, sprawling medieval tales that were beyond brutal, and yet sometimes so beautiful they almost made me cry.
It was totally insane. Jack was only a few years older than I was. In fact, he’d just turned thirty-one last month. And how did I know this?
I’d read it on the internet, of course.
Now, he was glowering down at me like I was a bratty kid refusing to clean my room.
I wasn’t bratty. I was just confused.
Hell, I’d been confused ever since showing up on my sister’s doorstep four hours ago, only to encounter someone who definitely didn’t belong.
And that was putting it mildly.

After more than a century of solitude, my captivity has suddenly ended. One could be forgiven for presuming that I would embrace my newfound freedom, but at least in prison I was safe from harm.Now, walking the world again on my own, I am ordered to bring my former ally to justice once and for all. But the mad king Teran certainly won’t come without a fight, and I’ve been forbidden from using my magic to capture or kill him.

If only this was the extent of my troubles. Instead, I’m lost in the modern world, beset by the rage of the Archer clan, and held captive by a dragon who cares nothing for the havoc the mad king will wreak upon the world. Instead, he ensnares me in a web of pleasure I can’t deny.

Not even a dragon as mighty as my captor can hold Morgaine le Fay against her wishes. I will succeed, even if it costs me everything.

“OMG!! I have never laughed so hard one second and been on the edge of my seat the next, with any other book!” – Fun Under The Covers


Jane West’s life is perfectly average. Perfectly boring. Until Ty Strickland—Grade-A, smoking hot firefighter—moves in down the street.

Then things get a little exciting, and not in the good, panty-melting sort of way. Not only does someone want her dead (seriously), she has to wrangle her out-of-control desires where the new neighbor is concerned, and convince her boss at the small town’s only adult toy store—who meddles in Jane’s love life—to leave the new hose-wielding hottie off her matchmaking radar.

But it’s not all chaos and pancakes. There’s Ty. And his smoking hot body. Smoking hot kisses. He’s burning the walls around her heart to nothing but ash. And she just might be falling in love…if she can stay alive long enough.

The first book in Vanessa Vale’s new Small Town Romance series, where the men in Montana aren’t just hot, they set things on fire.
