Mace's Awakening
Summary
Stockton Wolves Series, Book 3 - can be listened to as stand-alone. Complete story. Roan didn’t expect to be put in a jail cell by the man who was meant to be his mate. But it wasn’t as though his life had ever been easy. In his world Omega wolves were sold as soon as they became useful, and he’d been trained his whole life in the arts of keeping a clean house and a master happy. Unfortunately for him, being looked after was the last thing his mate seemed to want or need. Mace was happy enough in his life. Women seemed attracted to his bad boy looks and his surly attitude. They never stuck around, but then he was married to his job, so he didn’t mind being alone at nights. And he had a pack. Okay, that wasn’t something he’d been raised to believe in, but he’d spent enough time with Shane and Dimitri and the rest of the guys to know they were like anyone else. They just sprouted fur on occasion, and ran on four legs instead of two. So when Dimitri confronted him with the fact that the cute little shifter he’d booked the day before was his mate, he had a lot of thinking to do - dealing with man bits was the least of his problems. A serial killer with blond women in his sights, a whole host of misunderstandings, and the protective antics of Kalel, the cutest little cat shifter in existence, are just some of the hurdles these two men are going to have to overcome before they can have their HEA. Warning: contains an Omega shifter who will break your heart, a gruff human detective who has a lot to learn about mates, and a pack that works overtime to keep their members safe. Contains M/M intimate situations and off page references to child abuse. If these are triggers for you, please don’t buy. As always, no cheating, no cliffhangers and an HEA guaranteed.

Tell Me the Truth
Summary
Stockton Wolves Series, Book 5. Special Agent Niclas Draig was on a mission...well, he was supposed to be. But when sent to Stockton with his partner Jack, to investigate what looked like the work of a serial killer, he walked into the Captain's office and found himself looking at his mate. A mate, who's delicious scent was tinged with deceit as the man looked him in the eye and lied to his face. Captain Anthony Reynolds was getting tired of the way paranormals played fast and loose with the law and his life. Eighteen months from retirement, the last thing he expected when the FBI came in was to have such a physical reaction to one of the agents. When the same agent blasts him two weeks later for lying, Tony knew his life was going to change. He'd been around paranormals enough to know exactly what the word mate meant. But that didn't mean he had to accept it. An unguarded moment, a flash of teeth and both men's lives change. Their mating causes problems from every angle and...an unexpected bonus. An abduction, a bomb and Nico's interfering family - will Nico and Tony ever get their HEA?

Don't Bite
Summary
Trent Summers keeps a smile on his face, even though he feels like he's dying inside. Since he was horribly knifed by a killer bear, he's had trouble with anxiety and panic attacks. Knowing most of his friends are shifters and immune to such things doesn't help. Mace's mating with Roan gives him some hope, but a mate of his own is just a pipe dream. In the meantime, he has to put aside his fears and help his friends find rogue vampires - not exactly a cure for stress. Prince Alexi Vandermot is getting more than a little pissed off at his coven leader. There are rogue vampires in town and he's ready to hunt them down. The problem is, his cousin keeps saying no. Things aren't improved when the police come to call, bringing a consultant with them. Shifters are one thing, but Alexi is floored to find the consultant is his mate...human, scared and straight. Claiming a mate is one thing; keeping him safe is another. When the rogues are found to have family ties to the coven and one of them fancies a bite out of Trent, the coven and the pack have to work together to make sure the body count doesn't get any higher. When problems start to erupt inside of the coven as well, Alexi wonders if he'll ever have any time to get to know his anxious mate.

Don't Tempt Fate
Summary
Book 11 of the Cloverleah Pack series. Pack enforcer Marius Reef has a lot on his mind. Life in Cloverleah has been quiet for months, giving him too much time to think. He still suffers nightmares from his father's abuse decades ago and now his brothers are mated, he is struggling to find and keep his place in the pack. Determined to be useful, his waking hours are spent patrolling the pack's territory, but at night, his dreams are haunted by a hunky blond so perfect, he couldn't exist in real life. As the battle lord for his people, Cathair is used to being sent from the elven realm to dispel injustices found on many realms, including Earth. Guided by the Seers, he's never questioned his assignments before. But when his father, the High Elder, insists he must take a message to a tiny pack in the middle of nowhere and actually stay with them, he puts up a token protest. His place was on the elven realm, wasn't it? Prophecies, kidnappings, and the evil that stalks Cloverleah is getting closer, and all will be affected. Plagued with troubles and misunderstandings on both realms, Marius and Cathair must forge a bond, or the whole pack could be lost. But when trouble comes from one of their own, the two men reach a crossroads. Will they choose the right path or will the fate of the Cloverleah pack be doomed? This is an M/M story that includes some violence, references to past abuse, and a scene of attempted rape (not between MCs). Like all of my books, it has an HEA, no cheating, and no cliff-hanger. However, the epilogue sets the scene for the next book in the series. This book is part of a series, and while this story is based on one couple and is complete in itself, to appreciate the overarching story line and the stories behind the secondary characters, listening to the previous books in order is advised.

On the Brink
Summary
This can be heard as a stand-alone but if you listen to the series you will have a better appreciation of the secondary characters and the way the packs are set up. Raff never wanted a lot out of life: his pack, his family, and to be accepted for who he was. Yes, Red Wolves were smaller, skinnier, and weaker than other shifters, but they were also extremely rare. Which is why, when he was banished from his home pack and family, he made a point of staying away from other wolves. But living rough, without any money, is really hard and when Raff risks a trip into San Antonio to find some cash work, he quickly wished he hadn’t. Although, thanks to his dog Killer, he did meet up with the Alpha of the local pack. Maybe, just maybe, his life would take a turn for the better. Nereus was almost as old as the sea itself, but he made a point of visiting friends whenever he could. A chance visit to the wolf pack at San Antonio put him in the path of his mate, and Nereus grabbed the little man as quickly as he could. But Raff was new to the pack and when Scott and Madison get kidnapped and the men from Cloverleah zap into town, Nereus can’t help but wonder if Cloverleah might offer his new mate a safer place to live. Back in Cloverleah, Teilo is pleased his brother is mated, but it’s not as though he has a chance to go and look for a mate himself. He’s settled in his home and loves to run in his wolf form. Although when he gets bitten by a teacup poodle with the ridiculous name of Killer, he wonders what other surprises are going to jump out of the bushes at him. He didn’t expect to find two mates. A crazy serial killer with no scent, danger for Raff at every turn, and a landlocked beach? The men at Cloverleah are in for some pleasant and not so pleasant surprises. Throw in four dogs and the gorgeous bear cub and all of the men in Cloverleah are going to have to be on their toes. (Warning: M/M/M menage: violence, graphic intimate situations between men and an attempted rape of one of the MCs. Also features a teacup poodle who thinks he’s an alpha, a serial killer who believes in mpreg, and a merman with a beautiful tail.) A note to listeners: This book is based partially on a timeline from Angel in Black Leather Pants. It is not necessary to have heard that first, but if you have, don’t be surprised at the overlap. Also, because of the timeline of the book, it is written in two parts. Part one is in San Antonio where Raff and Nereus meet. Part two is in Cloverleah where Raff and Nereus meet up with Teilo.

Dragon's Fire
Summary
City Dragons, book two Ever since his father was killed, Samuel Hollingsworth has worked hard to cultivate a meaningful relationship with the dragon half of his soul. Things were going well for a while, and then, their mate rejected them, and now, his and his dragon’s connection took on added importance as they tried to keep each other’s hopes alive. But it wasn’t easy being patient and trusting the Fates had a plan for them, when the man they wanted was on the other side of the country and showed no signs of coming back. Vampire elder and coven ruler Raoul didn’t have time for weakness. He was determined to keep his coven and his city safe, and if blood was spilled to get the job done, then he was going to be the one who was spilling it - every single time. Even a chance meeting with his beloved in New York didn’t deter him from his duty. Riding on a dragon’s back might be fun for some people, but he had more important things to do. But the Fates will not be deterred even when it comes to stubborn vampire rulers older than dirt. A chance kidnapping sets in place a chain of events that test Samuel and Raoul’s fragile bonds to breaking point. When a bomb goes off and everything Samuel and Raoul hold dear is in danger, will Samuel be strong enough to stand by his mate’s side? Can be listened to as a stand-alone, but listening to book one will help you understand a few of the secondary characters' motivations more easily - such as Samuel’s brother Dirk and his mate Jon. This is an MM true mates paranormal romance story intended for adult listeners. Mpreg elements are included, but aren’t the focus of the story line.

I Can See You
Summary
Artemas, known as the academic son of Poseidon, spent much of his time trying to work out how the Fates decided who was to be mated to whom. With the fall of his brothers, his father, and others in their close circle, he was worried he'd be next in line and the last thing he wanted or needed was a mate. But his uncle Zeus pulled him away from his studies with a special project for him - the retrieval of a book from an auction. A very special book by all accounts; the only known written record from the god Silvanus, one of the originals who hadn't been heard from for decades. Unable to resist a good book mystery, Artemas agrees to leave Poseidon's library long enough to bid on it. Silvanus had spent 50 years in deep despair over what was happening to the world. He'd been alone since the beginning of time, and when his depression reached breaking point, he pleads with the Fates to remove him from the tapestry of life. Telling him it was impossible, the Fates agreed to a promise instead. Silvanus would find his mate and the love his heart hoped for. Seeking to regain his book, after it'd been sold at an auction, Silvanus lands in a hotel room, meeting his fated promise face-to-face. Unfortunately, their first meeting was not the romantic event Silvanus had hoped for. It's soon clear Artemas's emotional baggage wasn't the only threat to their possible mating. A meddling god is on the loose, and when Odin and Loki are ruled out as possible suspects, only one other god comes to mind. Throw in the fact that Thor was due to give birth any minute, and Artemas and Silvanus have to work together in more ways than one. Will Silvanus ever get the time to heal the pain in Artemas's heart, or will the meddling god take everything they have and more? This is an MM true mates story, based on ancient gods. MPREG elements are not the main focus of this story, but a cursing Thor does give birth within these pages.

Riding the Storm
Summary
Thor, Norse god of the storms, was extremely frustrated Lasse was making a heap of excuses to back out of all the fun activities they used to do before Lasse's mate, Jason, got pregnant. It wasn't as though he objected to his best friend finding his true mate, it's just he didn't think Lasse should worry himself gray over the things Jason enjoyed doing. And okay, maybe the storm over Manhattan wasn't strictly necessary, but...who was that man who glowed in the rain? Yep, glowed. Orin Green is a loner who keeps his head down and lives for his work. A strong believer in the ancient gods all his life, he has no problems splashing through the rain when Thor is throwing his temper around. He's got other things on his mind. Like why Professor Foggerty hates him so much and just what is the secret of the book Foggerty wants translated? When things get out of hand and Orin's attacked in his own apartment, the last person he thought would burst through his wards was Thor. It's a shame the sexy god had to spoil his image by opening his mouth. A magic book, a missing father, and Poseidon himself prepared to be a guinea pig? Orin's life is suddenly turned completely upside down and through the middle of it all he has to contend with Thor's efforts to be the mate he dreamed of. This book could be enjoyed as a stand-alone as none of the plot lines involve the other books in the series. However, a deeper appreciation of the secondary characters can be gained by listening to books two and three in this series and Cathair and Marius's book in the Cloverleah Pack series. Jason does give birth in this book, so warning mpreg elements, but they are not the focus of this story. M/M, Fated Mates, HEA. Due to the intimate situations described in this book, adult listeners only.

Don't Fight It
Summary
Lasse, son of Poseidon and Abraxas, has always wanted a mate of his own. When Nereus, his younger brother, found his, Lasse's hopes were revived. Poseidon, Abraxas, Nereus, Sebastian, and Thanatos had all found wolf shifters as true mates - surely it was only a matter of time before he found a wolf of his own. But no matter how much time Lasse spent with wolf packs, hoping someone would jump on him and brand him as "Mine", it just wasn't happening. However, a chance night out with his friend Thor changed his whole perspective on what the Fates had in store for him. Jason, also known as Ja, had been around a very long time. His heart filled with anger and despair as he traveled from one fight club to another, trying to keep from thinking about the life and kin he'd left behind. In his head, he was one of the forgotten myths - someone the gods and the Fates had ignored. The Fates proved him wrong. But all is not right in the world of myths and legends. Hades has disappeared from the Underworld, and an angry Cerberus is roaming the earth determined to find him. While Lasse might think of Cerberus as one of his friends, Jason has other ideas...and that maybe Hades' return isn't the only thing Cerberus is interested in. Features a sweet demigod with a heart of gold, an ancient warrior who needs love to heal his heart, cameo appearances from some of the Cloverleah pack, and of course a meddling Poseidon. MM. HEA. Could be listened to as stand-alone, although previous explorations of the Cloverleah series and the two prior titles in this series would help listeners to understand the play between secondary characters. Although this story is complete, the epilogue does introduce a new situation that will be played out in the next story.

You've Got to Be Kidding Me
Summary
Poseidon, ancient Greek God of the Sea, ruler of earthquakes and once worshipped by thousands as a fertility god, was bored and that could be a dangerous thing for people around him. Deciding to visit his son, Nereus and friends at the Cloverleah pack, Poseidon causes his own brand of trouble, resulting in a night out at a club. All he wanted was a bed partner for a few hours. What he got was so much more. Alpha Claude wanted nothing more than to rule his pack, care for his club members and take up the offer of a warm body when his urges got to strong. When Kane, Alpha of Cloverleah calls and says he wants to bring a special visitor, he was intrigued. But when a silver-haired god walks into his club, he knows his life is going to change. He just didn't by realize how much. Gods dropping in, visits from family and pesky secrets have a way of making things difficult. Fighting outside foes is easy, but the problems that flare between two very different men might be enough to scupper their mating before it has a chance to settle. Will they ever find their HEA or are the differences between a land creature and a god of the sea to big to overcome? This is an M/M true mates book and as such comes with the obligatory warnings. While this is book two in the series and can be listened to as a stand-alone, listeners will have more of an understanding of secondary characters and off-book references if they have listened to book one and the Cloverleah Pack series, in particular, On The Brink.

Someone to Hold Me
Summary
Can be enjoyed as a stand-alone. Hades, lord of the underworld, has spent years searching the world for his fated mate. He's watched his brother and nephews find their "light", and yet he can't find his. On the verge of giving up hope, Hades attends his brother Poseidon's wedding - so outside his comfort zone, but his discomfort proves worth it. Because there, at the reception, he finally sees his light. It wasn't that Ali was uncomfortable around wolves - he'd been a good friend of Claude's for years. But when one of the wolves at Claude's and Poseidon's wedding gets verbally pushy, he feels he has no choice but to shift and find the alpha. What he doesn't expect is to find a beautiful man with soulful eyes, holding out his hand. After all Ali and Hades have been through in their lives, you'd think the fates would be kind to them. But between Cerberus's howling, Persephone's snarking, and Ali's family proving there is more to them than their blatant wealth, Ali and Hades have their hands full creating a life with each other. But maybe, just maybe, the Mother has a gift for them after all. This is an MM paranormal true-mates story intended for adults only.

You'll Know in Your Heart
Summary
Baby, youngest son of Poseidon, had started to avoid going anywhere near his family. Between lovestruck mates and tiny children, more and more he was starting to feel as if he just didn't fit. Anywhere. Abandoned by one father at birth, and pretty much ignored by the other, Baby roamed the world, looking for some kind of acceptance, but all he could find was hookups. And there were plenty of those. Being the son of Himeros, the god of desire, as well wasn't all it was cracked up to be. But none of the people he saw for brief moments touched his heart, and most of them never wanted him to stay longer than an hour or two at most. Owen was known by many names, but the one title he'd spent a long time avoiding was that of "Baby's mate". Having known who his mate was from Baby's birth, Owen had stayed hidden away from life, content to watch his mate through his Oracle stone, until more than a thousand years had past. When the destructive behavior he believed Baby was falling into got worse, Owen knew it was time to step in. Baby needed a fixer, and the Fates had given Owen the job. But Baby didn't want to be fixed. In fact, he resented the very idea, which meant Owen needed to make a few attitude adjustments. As the two men bumbled along, struggling to find common ground with each other long enough to make a mating work, they weren't getting any support from Poseidon, Claude, or Himeros. When Baby gets another shock, he seriously starts to think hiding in an isolated cave somewhere was a good idea. The question is - will he take Owen with him? Unlike my other stories, this book has little or no outside angst factors. Listeners familiar with Baby's story as mentioned in earlier books in the series will know this sweet man has more than enough conflict in his own head, without introducing more. Quite simply, this story is Baby and Owen's journey toward true love and family.

When Three Points Collide
Summary
When Three Points Collide: The Gods Made Me Do It, Book 9 - can be listened to as stand-alone. An ancient god, a demon, and a wolf shifter walk into a bar. No, it's not the start of a joke, but Ra, The Father of Everything in the ancient Egyptian pantheon, thinks the Fates might be playing a joke on him when he drops in to try and help Cass and Wesley with their latest case. Seeing his mate for the first time, fighting for his life against three assassins should've been a cause for celebration, but Ra already knew the brave wolf shifter was destined for someone else. Arvyn, alpha wolf shifter, didn't know what to think. One minute he was fighting off three attackers, the next, those attackers were frozen like statues and he was confronted with another wolf shifter and a demon. But he already knew, he'd heard his mate was locked up in a basement in the nearby vampire coven and he wasn't going to let anyone stop him from meeting and saving the one intended for him. In the meantime, Kirill, Prince of the Dublin Coven was furious. Being chained to a wall in his own basement was the height of insult and as soon as he got his hands on the vampire responsible, that man's head was going to be permanently parted from his body. What he didn't expect, when he was busy trying to get out of his cell, was a feeling of calm that suddenly came over him, or the single drop of blood hovering in front of his face. Three completely different men, all thrown together in one point in time. Can they build a future together the way the Fates intended, or will their differences split them apart? This is an M/M/M menage MPREG fated mates story, although the mpreg is not the main focus of this story. As with all of my stories, this audiobook contains insta-lust, a journey towards love, no cheating, and a guaranteed HEA.
