Her Keeper   Detective & Desires Series#2
    The feud between Detective Rick Andrews and Sara Michaels is legendary and no one ever wants to stand in the line of fire when they go at it.
    Rick can’t deny the chemistry between him and Sara.  Hell, just the thought of her makes him hard.  Her intelligence and her spirit intrigue him and, for some unfathomable reason, the need to protect her consumes much of his waking hours and a few of his dreams as well.  But she’s too high maintenance.  Especially as she holds a long time grudge and knows just how to push his buttons.  No way does he want an argument with his woman every time he turns around, no matter how beautiful her face and adorable her ass.
    Sara Michaels has never forgiven Rick Andrews for humiliating her during her freshman week in college.  Now eight years later, their ongoing feud is reaching combustion level, in no small part because of the throbbing his angry, alpha male hotness creates between her thighs.  If only he wouldn’t frame his advice in ‘do as I say’ commands, she might be inclined to listen now and then.  His dominant attitude just makes her go for the knee-jerk response every time  Only, now Sara has crossed the line and Rick is determined to use the power her transgression grants him to lay down the law in a way she can't escape.
    This the first part in a series that will unfold over multiple volumes ranging from 10,000 to 20,000 words each.  Her Keeper is an erotic romance with explicit sexual content with strong elements of BDSM.   It has a hot cop (two actually), sexy frisking, spanking, cuffing, a crazy, hot proposition yet to come and two people who are stubbornly in love.

Haunted Spaces   Detective & Desires Series#3
    Excerpt
    She is hauntingly lovely.
    Luke Kincaid doesn’t often depart from the down to earth and straight and narrow – but she plucks at him and draws him from the mundane.   Not that murder could ever be mundane, but the paperwork is another matter.   She seems familiar, but he knows he’s never seen her before.  Despite her beauty, nobody pays her any attention and she makes no claims on anyone in the bustling detective room.  Here, tragedy is commonplace and victims invisible, so it is no big deal that no one appears to notice her.
    Luke is pretty much entranced.
    She doesn’t notice his looking.  Her attention is fixed elsewhere.  She is expectant, waiting, hovering.  He’s seen that look before.  His gut clenches because in this room that look never ends well.  There is someone she is hoping to see, someone who may not want to see her or who is past that capability.  He goes back to his paperwork.
    Minutes pass and he looks up and she is still there.  Time passes.  He imagines it flitting around them in stop motion sequence from an indie movie or TV show.  Everyone a moving, colored blur around the two of them; him intent at his desk looking across at her standing with that suspended tautness, waiting for the one she needs.  Deep in the pit of his stomach, he wishes it was him just so he can erase that troubled look.  Don’t engage he tells himself.  Too late.  Already done.
    He pushes away from his desk and walks over.  Her gaze never wavers; she doesn’t seem to notice his advance or she thinks he doesn’t notice her.  He reaches her and stands beside her.  He is too close; too much in her private space, but she stays put, no flinching or stepping back.
    “Hey.”  He asks in a soft drawl.  “Is there something I can help you with?”
    She starts as if his voice reverberates from a disembodied void, instead of oozing richly out of him like honey, a sound sexy enough on its own, but when it is supported by his 6’1” 200lbs of ripped, solid masculinity is just plain sinful.  He is a man most women consider pretty fine.  A bit
